Chapter 38 third quarter

Never look down on peasants. Mao Zedong, who led China's new democratic revolution to victory, was a peasant.Don't look down on fishermen. Hao Dongxi, who started the Great Southeast Group from scratch and achieved success, is a fisherman.This passage is Hao Dongxi's idea of ​​floating comfortably in the jacuzzi of the water bath.Any character like Hao Dongxi, soaking in the clean and cool bath, enjoying the soft and powerful comfort of the water, and all of these belong to him, probably will have a complacent arrogance in his mind. The guests invited here today, in terms of relationship, include his relatives and friends, business partners, relationships that are not needed right now but will be needed when it is uncertain, and some who are indispensable for any noise in the city Signature people who show their faces.In terms of identity, there are tens of millions and billionaires like Hao Dongxi, as well as government officials. Please, that would be too ostentatious and depressing to other guests.In China, as long as there are occasions where officials come forward, everyone will become a supporting role, and no one will feel comfortable being a supporting role in social situations, so Hao Dongxi did not use his very iron-clad person who cares about everything and seems to care about nothing The deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and a deputy mayor who attends any occasion as long as he can be on TV.Today is no exception. The opening dinner is equivalent to setting up a sub-drama. In addition to the protagonists and supporting roles, there are also people who play tricks. The tricks are played by various roles such as accompanying guests and vases. This kind of people must be invited. If you don't invite them, it will not be a successful Chinese-style dinner. With them, the dinner will be more fancy and prosperous, and the host will appear to be more classy.For example, there are a series of titles of members and directors of writers' associations at all levels hanging on their foreheads, and Hao Dongxi has to pay for a book to sponsor TV cultural celebrities who can't even count the number of stems and earthly branches.For example, a few half-baked artists in the city's middle-aged and elderly art troupe, male and female, old and young, are all dressed up in the same style as artists, and everything is reversed: men have long hair and shawls, women have shaved, old cucumbers Brush green paint to pretend to be tender, and a cucumber to wear a flower mirror to pretend to be mature.For example, the leaders of various inexplicable associations and clubs, and the kind of "know-it-all experts" who know everything and can express their opinions on TV or newspapers all the time and everywhere.

Hao Dongxi did not have strict requirements on who would attend the opening ceremony. The standard was generally to invite everyone who could be invited, and not invite anyone who could not be invited.After the meal, some people broke up, and some people stayed to enjoy leisure projects.Ajiao organized a group of middle-aged and elderly women to play cards. She knew that Hao Dongxi didn't want to see her half-naked in a pool with others for others to see. Hao Dongxi was very selfish in this regard, and firmly guarded her own things from being enjoyed by others. According to the principle, the wife is naked for others to see, even if it is in a water bath, even if it can only be seen, it is also something for others to enjoy their own home.The people who got together with Hao Dongxi were a few partners in the business field. The so-called business partners are those who sometimes lie to me, sometimes I lie to you, and sometimes join forces to lie to others.

Partner A is a factory owner who mainly deals in trash cans. What Hao Dongxi admires most about this man is that he brought back all the money he earned from smuggling electrical appliances in Xi’an for more than ten years back to Lumen and invested in building a factory that produces trash cans. , Hao Dongxi has been waiting sympathetically for the news of his unlucky family breaking.Over the past few years, this guy has used some means to get rid of a powerful government official, and he has an exclusive monopoly on the supply of trash cans and trash cans to Lumen City.Today, all the trash cans and trash cans in the streets and alleys of Lumen City and residential quarters are produced by him.In order to show the high quality of his products and protect his brand from infringement, all the trash cans and bins he produces have a big "Zhuang" character on them.So Lumen citizens called him Zhuang Garbage, Zhuang is his surname, and Garbage is his industry. Some people imitate foreigners by inverting their surnames and calling him Garbage Zhuang with the surname behind.Now in Lumen City, some people don't know the name of the current secretary and mayor, but no one doesn't know the three words "zhuang garbage".Zhuang Garbage's family property is not inferior to Hao Dongxi's real estate business, and may even be richer than Hao Dongxi.This guy's foundation is similar to that of Hao Dongxi, who has made a fortune in just a few years by occupying the geographical advantage of the southeast coast, and being the first to enjoy the opening of the policy, coupled with the connections of local ghosts and local snakes.However, judging from the smuggling business, Hao Dongxi belongs to the upstream, and fishermen who want to go to sea can directly contact overseas dealers to pick up the goods.He belongs to the lower reaches, and he can only make a lot of money by taking the goods from a good family like Hao Dongxi to the northern inland cities where a small lunch box recorder and a small black and white TV set were rare at that time.

Zhuang Garbage is very respectful to partner B. Partner B is a writer with the surname Chen who holds many titles as members, directors, and vice-chairmen of the Writers Association. In Trash's mind, Writer Chen is still a respectable cultural person.They understand that nowadays publishing a book is more difficult than a big girl having a child. If a book cannot be published, it does not mean that it is not well written. As long as it can be written, it is not easy, it is a skill.In this regard, although Hao Dongxi and Zhuang Garbage are not highly educated, their understanding of writers is much higher than that of most publishers.Lumen people, especially Lumen grassroots, have a natural respect for cultural people. Literary people like Writer Chen who have many titles are more likely to be admired by them.

"Writer Chen, shall I rub it for you?" Zhuang Trash has something to say to Hao Dongxi, but Writer Chen is ignorant, and follows Hao Dongxi closely, making friends with Hao Dongxi, thinking that he will have to ask Hao Dongxi to pay for the next book.He was present, so it was hard to talk, so Zhuang Trash pretended to be silly and teased Writer Chen, trying to find a way to talk Writer Chen away. Hao Dongxi scolded Zhuang Trash with a smile: "Fuck you, do you take this as a bathhouse?" Zhuang Garbage pretended to be innocent: "The name is different, but in fact it's not the same thing. They are all soaked in water to wash. Do you think it's Writer Chen?"

Writer Chen frowned and shook his head. This person actually wants to take a bath in the jacuzzi of the water bath hall.But it's hard to say clearly, maybe I need to ask him to bleed for the next book.As long as the book can be sponsored and published, the author can make money. When the book comes out, the copyright belongs to the author, not to the sponsor. Every self-selling book is the author's net income.Publishing a book by sponsorship will not specifically indicate that the ISBN is bought with money, so publishing a book with sponsorship or even buying a fake ISBN at a low price can still gain both fame and fortune.Facing the two rich men, this Writer Chen kept grinning flatteringly, his cheeks were sore, so he took advantage of the opportunity to change his expression, just like a person who has been sitting for a long time, stands up and stretches his legs and feet to shake off the flattery. His smiling face was replaced by the helplessness he felt when facing a fool.

Seeing that Writer Chen put away his smile, Zhuang Garbage didn't want to make the atmosphere of the scene stiff, so he quickly laughed at himself: "Haha, it's old-fashioned, old-fashioned, so this place isn't for bathing? Isn't it a waste to get so much water? ?” Hao Dongxi knew that this guy was pretending to be crazy and teasing the writer, so he also knew that he had something to say to him, so he used words to support the writer: "There is a Yongquan pool over there, try it in the past, it will be more comfortable." The Yongquan Pool sprays water jets upwards from the bottom of the pool, and the water jets spray out to form mushroom-shaped water waves on the water surface. Some female guests squat there, only their heads are exposed, and the heads are all provided by the water bath hall. The red shower cap looks like a piece of sweet potato floating on the water.Writer Chen looked over there for a while, Hao Dongxi gently pushed his shoulder and urged: "Come over quickly, there are still two seats left, if it's too late, you'll take one for me, and I'll be there in a while."

Hao Dongxi's tone is completely the tone of trust between good friends, and his movements are completely unaffected kisses and slaps between acquaintances.Don't say that Writer Chen wants something from him, even if he has no interest relationship with him, Hao Dongxi's soft way of expression will make him obey immediately without any resistance.Writer Chen climbed out of the jacuzzi and got into the nearby spring pool.Hao Dongxi watched Writer Chen get into the spring pool, and suddenly burst out laughing.Zhuang Junqing didn't know, so he asked Hao Dongxi why he was laughing.Hao Dongxi coughed and said, "Do you know why the pool is full of women?"

Zhuang Junhui shook his head in a daze: "Fuck you, how would I know." Hao Dongxi leaned closer to his ear: "That thing is aimed at the chassis. Women are very comfortable squatting on it, so they all like to squat on the nozzle in the spring pool to wash. I didn't expect Writer Chen to be so good. Look at him squatting on it. Among the women..." Zhuang Junhui suddenly realized, seeing Writer Chen and a group of women squatting in the spring pool to wash the chassis, he was wearing a green swimming cap, like a watermelon emerging from the middle of a slice of sweet potatoes, he couldn't help laughing.

However, Hao Dongxi suddenly pulled off the swimming cap on top of his head and looked down, and cursed angrily: "Fuck you, you bastards give us cuckolds." In order to keep the water clean, refreshing, and transparent, and to prevent hair loss from falling into the pool, the water bath hall stipulates that all people entering the hall must wear swimming caps. Guests are allowed to bring their own or buy them at the water bath hall.Because today is the opening ceremony, all guests who enjoy the spa in the water bath will be given a swimming cap for free, and swimsuits will be borrowed for free.I don't know who's idea, all female guests will be given red swimming caps, and all male guests will be given green swimming caps.It is very normal for a woman to wear a red hat, but it is a bit taboo for a man to wear a cuckold. Hao Dongxi just saw Writer Chen wearing a green hat and got in among a group of red hats, which was particularly conspicuous. Then he suddenly thought of looking at his swimming cap. When he saw that he was also a green hat, I couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

"Go, call your money boss, go quickly." Most of the waiters recognized the chairman, and quickly passed the chairman's instructions to Li Shasha, the chief foreman. When Li Shasha heard Hao Dongxi calling Qian Liangliang, she hurried to find Qian Liangliang. Qian Liangliang thought that Hao Dongxi had a problem with Aunt Jiang, the deputy mayor of Jinzhou City. He liked to show off his authority with the head of the reception office, and he also wanted to show off the authority of the chairman of the club with him. I also wanted to report to him the whereabouts of the chicken thighs in the black chicken soup, so I hurried downstairs to the water bath to find Hao Dongxi. Seeing Qian Liangliang approaching, Hao Dongxi threw the swimming cap in his hand to Qian Liangliang: "Why are you kidding me? You old Qian is really brave, give each of us a green hat." Qian Liangliang first looked at the hat in his hand. Although it was not pure green and had black markings on it, it should be classified as a green hat in general.He looked around again, and sure enough, the men were all playing in the pool in the green swimming caps with black stripes, and he couldn't help being stunned.The idea of ​​providing free swimming caps was approved by him, but he didn't ask what style to wear.What made him wonder was that none of these male guests raised any objections on the spot when distributing the hats, but Hao Dongxi, the host, was the first to discover the problem of green hats.Qian Liangliang reckoned that maybe the banquet that just ended made these people dizzy, or maybe these people were eager to enjoy the water bath and didn't care about the color of their hats, or maybe some people felt that the green hat was not right, but they tolerated it when they saw others didn't say anything.Anyway, no matter what the reason is, things like cuckolds are like typos in newspaper or TV subtitles. If you take it as a thing, it is a thing, but if you don’t take it as a thing, it is not a problem.Now that the big boss Hao Dongxi regards it as a matter, then it must be a matter. Qian Liangliang hurriedly responded: "I don't know why the cuckold was issued, I'll go check it out right away, do I need to exchange the ones that have already been issued?" Hao Dongxi was very satisfied with the opening ceremony. The green hat problem did not affect his good mood. Deep down, he thought it was fun for those men to wear green hats and hang around among the red hats.The reason why he scolded Qian Liangliang for the cuckold in a serious manner was just to use this opportunity to show Qian Liangliang some color, and to urge him to be more careful and serious in doing things in the future.Hao Dongxi has been running a large enterprise such as the Great Southeast Group for a long time. Even if he is an old man, he has already honed the skills of controlling subordinates.When Qian Liangliang asked such a question, he stopped him. If he changed it to another color right now, it would be troublesome on the one hand. Changing hats is another expense.After thinking about it, Hao Dongxi thinks that it is best to make mistakes and pretend to be deaf instead of making the cuckold incident bigger and more explicit.Zhuang Junhui was eager to talk to Hao Dongxi, and he didn't want to let a cuckold delay the business, so he interjected and said, "What's the matter? Green is green, and the military and armed police don't all wear cuckolds? Forget it, forget it. Go about your business." Hao Dongxi also went down the donkey along the slope and told Qian Liangliang: "Go and find out what's going on. You don't have such a little common sense. Thanks to friends from all walks of life who came here today, I'm embarrassed to say anything, so I'll be another guest." It’s going to be a big problem.” Qian Liangliang also wondered that Chinese people are taboo about green hats, no matter whether this taboo belongs to the rational category or not, as long as there is this particularity, as a service industry, it should be fully taken into account. such a problem.It suddenly occurred to me that the person responsible for the procurement was personally arranged by Ajiao. Private companies generally have this problem, that is, all key positions involving money and materials must be hired by relatives and friends with high credibility, according to this unwritten rule As a rule, the person in charge of procurement must be a relative of Ajiao or Hao Dongxi. Qian Liangliang said to Hao Dongxi: "I'll check it right away. This matter should be in the procurement process. I'll report it to the chairman when I find out." It was only here that I remembered that the black-bone chicken leg hadn't been reported yet, so I hurriedly told Hao Dongxi , "The matter of the chicken legs has been figured out, and a chef borrowed from the kitchen sneaked away." Hao Dongxi asked: "Sixty chicken legs are only about a hundred yuan. His salary is deducted, so he can't take advantage of it." Qian Liangliang smiled wryly: "Xiong Bao gave the money to others in advance, and they won't come if they don't give the money first." Hao Dongxi was very decisive: "It deserves it, let Xiongbao bear it by himself, after eating shit once, he will know that shit smells bad." Qian Liangliang repeatedly agreed to leave, but fortunately, the money Xiong Bao made now would not cause him to go bankrupt just because he lost 300 yuan.
