Chapter 96: In the Club (1)
"What do you think?" Zhao Guodong and Lei Xiangdong sat peacefully on the sofa, tasting the mellow coffee.
"I don't know. Now that the only thing that comes out now is, it's hard to say who will fall." Lei Xiangdong shook his head steadily, "In short, that's also a hot job, and everyone's attention. If you succeed, someone may not think of you, but if you fail, it must be the point of being a thousand people. You have to be very psychologically stressful. You can withstand it."
The original mahogany table is very delicate and delicate, and it seems a bit luxurious to use it to make a coffee table. However, if you use a good job, you will be edified by craftsmanship. It seems that it is natural to be in line with the environment here. It is like after experiencing the vicissitudes of time, the entire hall is filled with an indescribable heavy weight. Even the flying and jumping person comes in and subconsciously wants to become calm.
A brief introduction is casually turned to the page marked by the club. It looks very coordinated. The imported things may not be bad. It seems that they are a bit in line with the club name. Instead, they learn the British gentlemanly style into three flavors, which lacks the cheerful style of American cowboys.
"Will it fall on your head and knock you out?" Zhao Guodong asked with a smile.
"The possibility is slim. I just took over here, right? I have to consider my personal feelings. At least until now, no one has mentioned this to me." Lei Xiangdong was also a little distressed.
The International Development Bank has just started to get the helm position and has been exploring for the past few months. There is a big gap between the top and second-in-command. You don’t need to manage specific business matters anymore. These are his favorites, but now he has to learn to let go. The establishment of Huatou Company has been a while, but the candidates for the head are still confusing, and he has become a person in the vortex.
To be honest, he is not very interested in the position of the head of Huatou Company. This is a pure strategic investment company. In other words, it is difficult for you to say whether every decision of yours is correct in a short period of time, but one thing is certain. If you see the results in the short term, no one will praise you, but if there is a floating loss in the short term, the media will never let you go.
Zhao Guodong said that this is a challenging position. Although Lei Xiangdong is not afraid of challenges, he still does not want this challenge to fall on himself. He prefers the role of the International Development Bank as a member of the International Development Bank that he is becoming familiar with.
"I haven't talked to you about it, but it doesn't mean that the above hasn't paid attention to you. Have you ever heard of the invisible sound of the big sound of the elephant? The less there is, the more it often means something." Zhao Guodong said with a smile.
"Go and go, as you say that, anyone can do it." Lei Xiangdong glanced at the other party and sneered: "I feel like you want me to go."
"You can use your talents and go anywhere." Zhao Guodong's eyes flowed, "It seems that there are many guests today."
"When isn't like this here? The high-consumption group has been expanding these days. Of course, it is not ruled out that a considerable number of people are *** consumption, but we must admit that the number of people who get rich first is growing very quickly." Lei Xiangdong glanced at the outside of the hall. Indeed, there are many customers today, and they came earlier. Although it is very quiet here, when there are more people, I can still feel it.
"There are also many groups with extreme poverty." Zhao Guodong replied: "The task of poverty alleviation before me is still very heavy. In southern Yunnan, I can deeply feel that the number of poor people in border areas, especially ethnic minority areas, is still very large. The harsh living environment and lack of skills to make a living and wealth make it difficult for them to get rid of poverty in a short period of time. If the government does not find a way to take measures, maybe they may live in poverty for the rest of their lives and even their next generation."
"It seems that this year's life in southern Yunnan has made you feel deeply." Lei Xiangdong looked at Zhao Guodong very seriously.
"Just kidding, I came to all the sixteen cities and prefectures in southern Yunnan, and I specially selected their most difficult and difficult areas to inspect. I was so impressed that sometimes I even felt that sitting in these places, drinking tea and coffee was more like a crime, a crime that wasted time and delayed development."
Zhao Guodong recalled the situation when he went to northwest Yunnan and western Yunnan. He still felt a sense of shame in his heart. He wanted to change the pain he saw, but the reality was cruel and he had to face it. Even though the Canglang Foundation continued to invest in northwest Yunnan, it was still a drop in the bucket for trying to change the appearance of the entire northwest Yunnan region.
Lei Xiangdong was a little shocked by Zhao Guodong's words. He did not expect that such words would appear in Zhao Guodong's mouth. In his opinion, Zhao Guodong was more like a lucky person who had a smooth career in his career. Of course, this is related to his own efforts, but at such an age, one cannot help but feel that he has too much luck in his body. It is precisely this lucky color that makes him sometimes feel that Zhao Guodong is more obsessed with economic development, but he did not expect that Zhao Guodong also has such feelings in his heart.
"Guodong, after being said this, I really want to go to the northwest Yunnan." Lei Xiangdong pondered.
"It is definitely beneficial to go there. It is a baptism for your life, but you must go on it in real life. Just a glimpse of the glimpse accompanied by the city and county leaders, it will be meaningless." Zhao Guodong stared at Lei Xiangdong deeply.
"Well, that's natural. Since you want to go, you have to feel the reality and put some pressure on yourself." Lei Xiangdong nodded, "Life is like this. Sometimes reality looks beautiful, but there is also a mottled and desolate cruelty behind it. You and I want to change all this, but always feel that you are too weak."
"Weakness is not a reason. The most important thing is that you always have to do something to change, right?" Zhao Guodong's eyes were quiet, like a gurgling spring water. "But sometimes we always subconsciously want to escape with this reason, or be satisfied with the comfortable life situation, but forget our pursuit."
Lei Xiangdong looked at Zhao Guodong for a long time, as if he was experiencing the meaning of Zhao Guodong's words. After a while, he slowly expressed his approval.
"Okay, we won't talk about such a deep topic. We must have pursuits, but we cannot avoid reality. So how to wander between the two is our real life. Just like we can sit leisurely in this environment where a cup of coffee is equivalent to a weekly living expenses for a child from a poor family in northwestern Yunnan. As long as we don't forget everything." Zhao Guodong smiled suddenly.
"Guodong, I think you seem to have changed a lot when you come to the Development and Reform Commission." Lei Xiangdong always felt that Zhao Guodong went from Ningling to southern Yunnan, and then from southern Yunnan to the Development and Reform Commission, he really felt like he was born in the world.
"Remember a saying: Mosquitoes compete for small profits in their eyelashes, and stolen fame on their horns. Aren't we all this kind of person? If we can't get rid of fame and fortune, we can only try our best not to go against our true intentions." Zhao Guodong shrugged, but his eyes looked into the distance.
Several women in the distance seemed to be looking at this side. Zhao Guodong was slightly stunned. Why did Ruolin come too?
Seeing the graceful figure coming straight toward this side, a smile appeared on Zhao Guodong's face. Lei Xiangdong also noticed the beautiful figure walking towards this side. He felt that Zhao Guodong should know the woman who was walking straight toward this corner of him. A strange smile appeared on his face, "Guodong, are you going to join the world?"
"What is entering the world? Isn't it entering the world?" Zhao Guodong said a philosophical saying, "Xiangdong, don't you know it? Cheng Ruolin, the first host of Anyuan TV's "Super Show", is now the president of Nirvana Film and Television Media."
"Oh?" Lei Xiangdong felt a little familiar. Anyuan TV's number one host became famous for hosting "Super Show", but left gracefully when he became so popular. It was also rumored to be a good story in the entertainment circle at that time. "No wonder I feel a little familiar. Guodong, are you very familiar with her?"
"Well, she is from Ningling, and I am Ningling's parents' official, can you not be familiar with me?" Zhao Guodong said half-true.
"Director Guodong!" Cheng Ruolin acted quite naturally in front of outsiders, "It's rare. I really didn't expect to meet you here."
Lei Xiangdong noticed that the president of Nirvana Film and Television Media did not use respect to Zhao Guodong, but used you, and his tone was very natural and casual. It seemed that the two were indeed familiar with each other.
"Ruolin, come on, let me introduce you to you. This is also a celebrity who has gone out of Anyuan. President Lei Xiangdong and Xiangdong, President of the International Development Bank. This is Mr. Cheng of Nirvana Film and Television. We are all fellow villagers of Anyuan? If your company wants to invest outside in the future, President Lei is the most willing to provide financial support for private enterprises."
Cheng Ruolin is a host and has experienced all the storms. Zhao Guodong is not worried about being noticed by others, and even if Lei Xiangdong notices something, there is nothing.
"President Lei, I have heard of Daming for a long time. I just met our Anyuan master today." Cheng Ruolin smiled sweetly, "Although we Nirvana Film and Television has no idea of going out for the time being, the pace of internationalization and globalization is coming. Maybe one day we Nirvana Film and Television will rely on the International Development Bank and will bother President Lei at that time."
"Guodong's friends are my friends, so there is no question of whether to bother or not. If Nirvana Film and Television can really go out, it means that our country's literary and communication industry has become bigger and stronger, and it is natural for the International Development Bank to support it." Lei Xiangdong also replied with a smile, and his words were quite appropriate.
When Zhao Guodong looked through, Ruolin noticed the two girls over there, they seemed to be well-known insiders in the entertainment industry. Cheng Ruolin came with them, probably not just to come here for leisure. "Ruolin, are you here to participate in the event today?"
