Chapter 7 1. How to do great things if you are not a high-ranking official

The next day, Du Linxiang personally went to the airport to see Lai Jingdong off.On the way back, he asked An Youqi who was sitting beside him: "What happened to the Zhuang Zhiqi incident that we two talked about last time?" "Zhuang Zhiqi said he would think about it." An Youqi said, "Last night, I heard what Lai Jingdong said, you know I'm not just talking nonsense." Lai Jingdong's words really touched Du Linxiang.He nodded and said, "As long as he is a talent, we can't just let him slip away." An Youqi smiled and said, "Didn't you say at the beginning, could it be possible that a boss would humbly beg employees?"

Du Linxiang also smiled: "You have a shortcoming, that is, you have a very good memory." An Youqi said: "Since you are so thirsty for talent, why don't I bring Zhuang Zhiqi to your office and you talk to him personally?" Du Linxiang thought for a while: "Forget it, you tell me where he lives, and I will come to him personally." An Youqi said: "Last time you said that I was Xiao Heyue chasing Han Xin, this time you are going to be the Liu Bei who visits thatched cottage three times?" Du Linxiang smiled without saying a word.Naturally, An Youqi couldn't fully understand his thoughts.

A few days later, one evening, Du Linxiang drove to Zhuang Zhiqi's residence alone according to the address provided by An Youqi.Zhuang Zhiqi lives in an old community in the city center, a two-bedroom house, and Du Linxiang, who was left by his father-in-law before his death, parked his car on the side of the road and walked in alone.Under the shade of the trees in the community, a group of people are sitting around playing chess.Du Linxiang looked from afar, and the one who rested his chin in front of the chessboard and meditated, wasn't it Zhuang Zhiqi?The weather is muggy tonight, and most of the people around the chessboard are wearing white vests and shorts, with a pair of plastic slippers on their feet.Zhuang Zhiqi was the only one whose attire was out of tune with the surrounding environment—brown trousers and a sky blue T-shirt were ironed straight, and a pair of black leather shoes were polished to a shine.Especially on such a hot day, Zhuang Zhiqi tucked his T-shirt into his trousers tightly.

Du Linxiang could tell at a glance that Zhuang Zhiqi was not wearing any famous brand, and the purchase of these outfits would cost no more than one thousand yuan.But with such a dress, Zhuang Zhiqi still has to work hard to iron and tidy it up! Du Linxiang couldn't help thinking of the teacher he had when he was a child in the village primary school.The teacher's surname is He, and it is said that he has stayed abroad, and was an official in the old regime before the founding of New China.Because of this, he was dispatched to a remote village.Teacher He is naturally recognized as the most educated person in the village. In addition, many of his living habits seem out of date: he insists on shaving and brushing his teeth every day; The porcelain cup is filled with hot boiling water, which is used instead of an electric iron to iron a pair of washed-white trousers into a striking trouser line.

Later, the policy was implemented, and Teacher He returned to the county seat.An old man who was nearly sixty years old was half buried in the loess, but he scraped together some money and bought a second-hand piano to put in his hut of less than 40 square meters. Du Linxiang, who was young and inexperienced, also laughed at Mr. He.Over the years, his thinking has changed—it turns out that in the era of general poverty, generations of poor peasants are still different from down-and-out nobles!A hero in distress isn't a wretch after all! Looking at Zhuang Zhiqi in front of him again, a thought flashed in Du Linxiang's mind: "Could this person be Qin Qiong who sells horses, or Lin Chong who stabs Cangzhou?"

Du Linxiang is a vulgar person. Among the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the only one who has some attainments is chess.When I was young, I loved to play chess with the elders at the entrance of the village. After I came out to work, I would go to the roadside to play a few games of broken chess with those rivers and lakes artists.Over time, his chess skills have rarely been rivaled. Du Linxiang looked at the chessboard and couldn't help shaking his head.Zhuang Zhiqi's situation was really passive, he lost both his chariots and his chariots, and he was left with a horse and a cannon, struggling to deal with others. "It must have been very bad at the opening, otherwise why would I lose all the good things." Du Linxiang whispered to himself.

An old man next to him said, "It's good that Xiao Zhuang can survive until now. He gave up his car and gun before he got off with him." Hearing this, Du Linxiang was a little surprised.He watched a few more moves, and felt that the person sitting opposite Zhuang Zhiqi was definitely not a rookie.Against someone of this level, Zhuang Zhiqi actually took the initiative to give up a car and a gun?Another middle-aged man beside him said, "What if he doesn't give up? If he doesn't give up, no one here can beat him, so what's the point?" This noise also made Zhuang Zhiqi raise his head.He was quite surprised when he saw Du Linxiang at a glance: "Mr. Du, why are you here? Are you looking for someone?"

Du Linxiang said with a smile: "Well, come to find someone. If you see someone playing chess, come and have a look." "Oh. Then go and do your work. I'm raining here, so I can't accompany you." Whether in the past or now, whether in a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, Zhuang Zhiqi has no flattering gene in his body. "The person I'm looking for is you." Du Linxiang said. Zhuang Zhiqi was even more surprised: "What do you want from me?" Du Linxiang patted him on the shoulder: "Let's talk about something later, you finish playing the chess first."

Zhuang Zhiqi let out an "oh", and immersed himself in the chess game again.I don't know whether it was Du Linxiang's arrival that disturbed his mood, or whether he gave up one car and one cannon at the beginning, and his strength was too weak. Ten minutes later, Zhuang Zhiqi was finally defeated. Just as Zhuang Zhiqi was about to get up, Du Linxiang became interested: "Don't worry, let's do another game." Zhuang Zhiqi seemed reluctant: "Let's stop." But Du Linxiang said: "What are you afraid of? I won't ask you to give up. Let's fight soldiers, generals, and play the next game seriously."

Immediately, someone booed: "Old and Zhuang don't give up the chess, you will lose badly." "Who said that?" Du Linxiang was a little unconvinced, "He may win you, but he may not win me." Agitated by Du Linxiang, Zhuang Zhiqi's Hunan Mule's temper also came up.Well, you Du Linxiang, in terms of money, I am not as good as you, and in terms of playing chess, I have been seeking a defeat for so many years, but I can't get it. Zhuang Zhiqi sat down and laid pieces on the chessboard.Du Linxiang asked him to go first, but Zhuang Zhiqi insisted on refusing: "The visitor is a guest, so you should move first."

Du Linxiang was also polite, and moved the cannon to the middle, and a "headshot" came.Zhuang Zhiqi leisurely lit a cigarette, and unhurriedly set the horse up.The onlookers began to talk about it again, some said the car, some said the flying elephant, and there was a lot of noise. After about half an hour, Zhuang Zhiqi's face became serious.On the chessboard, Du Linxiang's two horses have reached the opponent's hinterland, and there is a cannon sitting in the middle far away, ready to give Zhuang Zhiqi a fatal blow.One of Zhuang Zhiqi's cars was always pinned down on the side lanes and couldn't play much role.The most irritating thing was that his horse was pinned from the very beginning, and he couldn't jump out of his own half. There are too few real gentlemen who watch chess without saying a word!Although everyone in the community admitted that they were inferior to Zhuang Zhiqi in chess, they jumped out one by one at the moment, making Zhuang Zhiqi upset.Another ten minutes later, with Du Linxiang's army encircling, Zhuang Zhiqi had no choice but to surrender. The onlookers couldn't help but wonder.It's really beyond the sky, Zhuang Zhiqi, who turned out to be invincible, also has times when his skills are not as good as others. Zhuang Zhiqi shook his head helplessly: "I didn't expect President Du's chess skills to be so superb. After playing chess, please come to my house to talk about anything." The furnishings in Zhuang Zhiqi's home are very old, but they are kept spotless.In the middle of the living room hung a portrait of a beautiful woman in black and white.Du Linxiang knew that this woman was Zhuang Zhiqi's late wife Chen Yijin. Du Linxiang once heard the story of Zhuang Zhiqi and Chen Yijin told by An Youqi.The two met on campus in Beijing, where they made a private engagement for life.At the beginning, Zhuang Zhiqi had his own life plan. After graduating from university, he returned to his hometown in Hunan. His family also contacted him with an enviable job in Changsha, the provincial capital.Chen Yijin, who has fallen in love, also looks forward to following his lover after graduation, to the banks of the Chuyunxiang River in the Furong Kingdom, where the autumn wind is thousands of miles away, to the hometown of mottled bamboo that is full of tears of love from the emperor, and to be an ordinary girl. A common woman who washes, mends, and bears children for her husband. However, a car accident of Chen Yijin's father changed the lives of the two young people.In order to take care of his father who was paralyzed in bed, Chen Yijin had to return to his hometown.For his beloved woman, Zhuang Zhiqi also left his hometown and came to Hezhou.Zhuang Zhiqi, who just entered the metallurgical plant, was regarded as a key training target by the unit. He was very busy with work and studied for a master's degree in his spare time.But even so, Zhuang Zhiqi and his wife still take care of his paralyzed father-in-law.Taking urine and carrying excrement, turning over and wiping his back, working hard without complaint, others say that such a son-in-law is many times better than his son. The father-in-law finally passed away, but a bigger blow came one after another-Chen Yijin was diagnosed with breast cancer.At that time, Hezhou Metallurgical was in the sprint stage of listing. Zhuang Zhiqi took care of his wife in the hospital at night, and came to work during the day like an engine with full gas. The listing was successful, but the company was in crisis because of the top leader's corruption case, and Zhuang Zhiqi was inevitably involved.When Zhuang Zhiqi was notified to be interviewed, Chen Yijin, who was skinny and had lost all his hair due to long-term chemotherapy, often waited downstairs by leaning on the railing.Chen Yijin, who has a gentle temperament and never loses his temper, once dragged his sick body into the investigator's office and shouted hoarsely: "My husband is innocent. I can't live for a few more days. Anyone who wants to make trouble with my husband will be punished by me." Just fight him hard." This scene moved even the investigators to tears. After Chen Yijin left, Zhuang Zhiqi never got married again.He took good care of his son. Every year on the anniversary of his wife's death, he would come to the grave with flowers in his hands, and play Chen Yijin's favorite piece on the harmonica. When An Youqi told Du Linxiang about Zhuang Zhiqi's past, her eyes were moist.This story undoubtedly increased her affection for Zhuang Zhiqi.Which woman would not wish to meet a considerate man who is willing to take care of her?Which woman does not desire to have an unforgettable and exclusive love? The small apartment with two bedrooms and one living room was well organized by the host.The largest bedroom is used as a study, and I and my son have built two beds in the small bedroom.The living room and dining room are combined into one, and even children do their homework here.Zhuang Zhiqi's son is nine years old this year, and the child is very polite. Seeing Du Linxiang enter the house, he greeted Du Linxiang without waiting for Zhuang Zhiqi's introduction: "Hello, Uncle!" In order not to disturb his son's homework, Zhuang Zhiqi invited Du Linxiang into the study.In the compact study room, there seem to be only two things: various books and photos of Zhuang Zhiqi and Chen Yijin.Compared with the black and white photos of the living room, these life photos look bright and lively.Anyone who enters this space can feel the sincere love of this couple. Du Linxiang couldn't help sighing in his heart: "Zhuang Zhiqi is really a strange man with a lot of love!" In human nature, there are indeed some shining points of truth, kindness and beauty. To use a fashionable word, it is called positive energy!Du Linxiang's private life will not be as flawless as Zhuang Zhiqi's, and even he is unwilling to choose this way of life.But when he met Zhuang Zhiqi, he would still express his sincere admiration.Although I can't come, I yearn for it. Du Linxiang looked up, and there were financial books, historical novels, Buddhist scriptures, and more than a dozen chess records on the bookcase.Du Linxiang pointed to the chess record and said with a smile: "No wonder your chess skills are unmatched in the community." Zhuang Zhiqi said embarrassingly: "It's all trivial tricks, wouldn't it be defeated by Mr. Du today?" Du Linxiang waved his hand: "One set is accidental, and the next three sets will show the truth. How about we kill two more sets?" Zhuang Zhiqi is getting more and more confused. Mr. Du, who dares to be generous, came to play chess with me today?But after being defeated just now, Zhuang Zhiqi held his breath in his heart, and he replied straightforwardly, "Okay." The two played two more rounds in the study.In the first game, there was a draw, and in the last game, Zhuang Zhiqi finally defeated Du Linxiang. Zhuang Zhiqi packed up the chess pieces and said, "Mr. Du, you didn't mean to let the chess go, did you?" "Hand the chess?" Du Linxiang laughed and said, "Do I have this ability? To be able to make the chess quietly, at least a few orders of magnitude higher than the opponent, I think I can't do it." When Du Linxiang said this, Du Linxiang Can't help but think of Zhang Qingbo.In order to get closer to President Zhang, he hired a table tennis coach with a high salary and often played with Zhang Qingbo.The coach told him it was much harder to let the ball out than to play it.If you make it too obvious, the other party will lose interest after finding out; if you do it with real swords and guns, President Zhang will lose ugly again.To grasp the scale here, the level must be at least a few grades higher than that of the opponent. Zhuang Zhiqi nodded and smiled.Indeed, those who can be several orders of magnitude higher than themselves must be at the level of national players.The Du Linxiang in front of him is undoubtedly still far behind. "In terms of chess skills, I am not as good as you. There is a reason why I won the first game." Du Linxiang explained, "Looking at the chess records in your bookcase, I know that you follow the academic route and are not good at playing quack chess." "Jianghu Chess?" Zhuang Zhiqi asked curiously, "What do you mean?" Du Linxiang said: "Just like today, there are a dozen people standing next to each other, and you have more ideas than each other. In fact, they are all bad ideas, which upset the real chess players. You used to Playing chess in the community, there should be quite a few people watching, but your chess skills are much higher than theirs, even if you are affected a little, it doesn't matter. But today, when you meet me, you will need to use your brains to win. It's troublesome." Zhuang Zhiqi thought about it carefully, and it really made sense.The next two rounds were played in his own study, without the interruptions from others, he was able to play silently and plan carefully, so he turned defeat into victory. "Mr. Du, it seems that you are a master at chess?" Zhuang Zhiqi asked. "That's right." Du Linxiang said, "I haven't read a single chess book since I was a child. The ability to play chess is all figured out by myself. Especially when I was working on a construction site, every time I played chess, I was surrounded by Surrounded by a dozen or so people, some workers were still betting on winning or losing. The noise was so loud that I wanted to knock off the roof. Over time, I got used to this kind of atmosphere. Even though he yelled and yelled, I was calm idle." Zhuang Zhiqi laughed: "This is the real master. Come from practice and go to practice." "No way." Du Linxiang waved his hand and sighed, "Practice alone without theoretical guidance will not last long after all. For example, I was lucky enough to win the first game, but I had no choice but to bow down later. A famous military strategist once said that relying on disadvantages Equipment can win a few battles, and a war with luck, but it can never win two wars in a row.” "Boss Du's remarks are not only about chess skills, but also about business and life." Zhuang Zhiqi suppressed his smile.At this moment, his impression of Du Linxiang has changed a lot - the person who can say such words will definitely not be a big bastard, at least he can be regarded as uneducated and skilled. Du Linxiang took out Hongtashan cigarettes from his body and handed one to Zhuang Zhiqi.Zhuang Zhiqi was a little strange: "Mr. Du only smokes this kind of cigarette?" Du Linxiang smiled: "Habits over the years cannot be changed." Du Linxiang continued: "I am here this time to hear your suggestions for the future development of the metallurgical plant." Zhuang Zhiqi said: "Mr. Du bought the metallurgical plant, isn't he thinking about the land in the plant area? When it comes to future development, it is natural to demolish the plant for real estate development." Du Linxiang said: "You are too straightforward. I thought it was true to engage in real estate development, but when I signed the agreement, I also promised the government to ensure the employment opportunities of the workers. After the relocation of the factory, production must continue. Ah, I don't ask how much benefit it can create, at least it has to earn back the wages of the workers." "Mr. Du's speech is also very straightforward." Zhuang Zhiqi said with a smile, "Since you asked me today, just say a few nonsense. The biggest problem of Hezhou Metallurgy lies in the product line. The factory always carries star enterprises, large state-owned enterprises The shelf of the factory, the product line is very complete, almost everything is being made, but in the end, nothing is competitive.” Zhuang Zhiqi went on to say: "Hezhou Metallurgical has missed the historical opportunity, and it is impossible to become a large and strong enterprise. It can only retreat to the direction of small and beautiful. Some products must be decisively discontinued; there are even a few The production line can be sold as scrap metal. Concentrate on producing one or two blockbuster products, at least everyone’s wages will be settled.” Du Linxiang was expressionless, but he agreed with Zhuang Zhiqi's statement in his heart.He then asked, "Are there any blockbuster products in the factory now?" Zhuang Zhiqi said: "In recent years, the factory has developed a new technology, which is to extract copper and aluminum from scrapped electrical appliances. This technology is currently at the leading level in China. Once it is put into production, the benefits should be good." Du Linxiang suddenly realized: "No wonder you asked me to leave the technicians with high salaries during the negotiations." Zhuang Zhiqi said: "For this technology, the factory has invested nearly tens of millions. And a Zhejiang company, with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, wants to poach core technicians away. If they can't keep these people, Mr. Worry about workers' wages." At this time, Du Linxiang was quite fortunate.At the time, the metallurgical plant was in an emergency situation, and the workers were concerned about tens of thousands of yuan in compensation for demolition and relocation, and what they were anxious about was how to calm the incident.Fortunately, there is another Zhuang Zhiqi who is thinking about the factory's long-term plans.It's a pity that such a person is neither reused by the boss nor seen by the workers. Du Linxiang said: "After all, the era of one-trick delicacy is over, and a new technology has only been popular in the market for two or three years. What should we do next?" Zhuang Zhiqi smiled and said, "Sell the factory quickly while the factory is booming." Du Linxiang patted his thigh: "We've thought of one piece this time." He took a drag on his cigarette, and then looked at Zhuang Zhiqi suspiciously: "I'm the boss, so it's not surprising that I have this idea. Why do you think the same way? You insisted that I send the technicians to watch, you have a lot of affection for the factory." "I have come here since I graduated from university. Of course I have feelings." Zhuang Zhiqi said slowly, "Zhu Xinli, chairman of Huiyuan Group, has a famous saying that enterprises should be raised as sons and sold as pigs. Under market economic conditions, enterprises are also commodities. Buying and selling are commonplace, so there is no need to make a fuss. There are really good buyers, Mr. Du threw out the burden, and the workers have a better home, why not do it? Besides, the metallurgical plant can really be sold next time, the new owner It will definitely be stronger than Mr. Du." Du Linxiang didn't mind Zhuang Zhiqi's straightforwardness, he just asked puzzled: "The new owner must be better than me, how do you say that?" Zhuang Zhiqi said: "Gu Weimin bought the factory because of the shell of the listed company; Mr. Du bought the factory because he wanted the land. After a lot of tossing, the shell is gone, the land is gone, what else can I sell? You can only sell production lines, craftsmanship, and skilled workers. Therefore, if there is a buyer next time, it must be a company familiar with the metallurgical industry. Putting the factory in the hands of a knowledgeable boss is comparable to a real estate developer like Mr. Du Reliable." Zhuang Zhiqi went on to say: "The technological upgrading of the metallurgical industry is very fast. After all, Weitong is not a professional metallurgical enterprise, and no one can tell what will happen after a few years. Therefore, I advise Mr. Du to accept it as soon as possible and get out as soon as possible. You have already made enough of the profits from real estate development. As for the factory, as long as it can keep the balance, even if it has a slight loss, you can boldly throw it out. Mr. Du just said well, you can win a few battles with inferior equipment , with luck, it can win one war, but it is absolutely impossible to win two wars in a row.” Du Linxiang laughed out loud, not because of how humorous Zhuang Zhiqi's words were, but because he was delighted that this trip was not in vain.No wonder An Youqi strongly recommended it, and Lai Jingdong praised him a lot. This person is really a talent!Thinking clearly, lifting weights lightly, means being too sharp when speaking.Du Linxiang speculates that with Zhuang Zhiqi's talent, but he has been in such a field today, he probably suffered from his straightforward personality. Du Linxiang continued to smoke a cigarette: "When Wang Shuchun, the general manager of Hezhou Metallurgy, was arrested for insider trading, many workers called you Wang Shuchun's best friend. I heard that every Spring Festival, you would visit him in prison." Zhuang Zhiqi didn't know what the purpose of Du Linxiang's trip was.We were still discussing the future development of the factory just now, why did we suddenly get involved in these old things again?Zhuang Zhiqi replied flatly: "I can't control what other people say. Mr. Wang violated the law and has already been punished. But for me personally, Wang always has the grace to know me." Du Linxiang nodded.Before coming, he learned about the insider trading case of Hezhou Metallurgy through various channels.Headed by Wang Shuchun, the entire leadership team fell, and only Zhuang Zhiqi survived.However, during the investigation, Zhuang Zhiqi said a lot of good things for Wang Shuchun.At the beginning, the higher authorities intended to let Zhuang Zhiqi retain his original position, but because Zhuang insisted on exonerating Wang, the leaders thought that he was too close to Wang Shuchun, and could not be reused even if he was not involved in the case. From Zhuang Zhiqi's attitude towards his dead wife and the old leader, Du Linxiang believes that this is a strange man who values ​​love and righteousness.Ability aside, only virtue can be regarded as a dragon and phoenix among people. Du Linxiang paused and said, "Mr. An should have told you that he hopes you will withdraw your resignation report and become the deputy general manager of the metallurgical plant?" Zhuang Zhiqi nodded: "I said so." Du Linxiang waved his powerful hand: "President An's words don't count. I can tell you clearly now, don't even think about this deputy general manager." Zhuang Zhiqi looked astonished.Du Linxiang took the initiative to come to the door, is it just to humiliate himself? "I have prepared another position for you." Du Linxiang said, "You can come to work at the headquarters of Witton Group. As for the position, I will give you the position of president. From now on, I will be the chairman and you will be the president." Zhuang Zhiqi could hardly believe his ears.Weitong is a well-known large enterprise in Hezhou. A depressed person like himself, who even confronted Du Linxiang at the negotiating table a few months ago, became the president of this company overnight? Du Linxiang went on to say: "Vitone has two vice presidents, namely An Youqi and Lin Zhengliang. After you come, the position will naturally be ahead of them. The company is planning to go public. In addition to the annual salary, you will also get the corresponding equity." Zhuang Zhiqi was stunned for a long time before he said, "Mr. Du, are you kidding me?" "Do you think I look like a joker?" Du Linxiang looked serious. Zhuang Zhiqi's eyes were still flickering with confusion, he took out a cigarette and lit it, and took a sharp puff: "Why did Mr. Du offer me such an attractive offer?" "Because you are worthy of this condition." Du Linxiang said, "Witone's next key task is to go public. The company needs a talent who is familiar with the capital market. I have heard many people say that Zhuang Zhiqi is a capital wizard. Back then, you were able to succeed. To operate Hezhou Metallurgical’s listing, I also believe that you can help Weitong now.” Zhuang Zhiqi flicked the soot: "If this is the reason, I'm afraid I will disappoint Mr. Du. Hezhou Metallurgical's listing is not a successful case, otherwise the company would not be reduced to this level. Besides, the operation of Hezhou Metallurgical It’s been many years since I went public. Now things are different, and my style has long been outdated. Talented people emerge from generation to generation, and those returnees with Ph. Mr. Du should hire another Gao Ming." Du Linxiang always had a smile on his face.In his opinion, Zhuang Zhiqi's refusal was partly polite and partly hypocritical.Du Linxiang does not have much culture, so he has a natural respect and contempt for intellectuals.On the one hand, he admires educated people, on the other hand, he also sees through the bad temper of scholars.There are not many Chinese literati who think about "self-cultivation and family harmony", but they always think about "governing the country and bringing peace to the world".Even the vast majority of them have evolved into a kind of fanatical narcissism to "establish a heart for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and bring peace to all generations."Chinese literati are often the group of people who are most unwilling to devote themselves to their studies. What they remember is to apply what they have learned in their lives and to apply it to the world.Even that professor Ke Wenyue, who is well-educated and quite immortal, doesn't he have a trace of sadness in his speech?Not only melancholy at "Feng Tangyi is old, but Li Guang is difficult to seal", but also feels the sages who "searched for a prince from thousands of miles away". Zhuang Zhiqi is a literati and a great intellectual.Therefore, Du Linxiang believed that he had the urge to make contributions in his heart, and the years of down and out, not only did not make this urge disappear, but it became stronger.Of course, the stinky old nine has a bit of sour smell.If you don't put on airs and refuse to greet, what kind of literati can you call it? Du Linxiang said: "The failure of Hezhou metallurgy was caused by Wang Shuchun's corruption. Later, selling the shell to Gu Weimin is beyond your control. Sadly, many people judge heroes by success or failure, and they even told you Zhuang Zhiqi when the company went public. Turn a blind eye to the extraordinary strategy displayed." "President Du is really a rare understanding person." Zhuang Zhiqi sighed.Over the years, he has endured too much blame, but he can't find a chance to defend himself.Unexpectedly, Du Linxiang in front of him is a rare confidant. Du Linxiang continued: "I have also met people on Wall Street, but I am really worried about handing over the company to them. They are all pretentious, but they lack a basic understanding of China's national conditions. Hezhou Metallurgical was a state-owned enterprise, and Weitong was a private enterprise. However, in terms of refined management, the two companies may be regarded as brothers and sisters. Someone came to Weitong for inspection and said that this company does not even have a book that meets the requirements of a listed company. Those foreign monks who are full of professional terms cannot read Wei Tong this crooked book." Zhuang Zhiqi nodded: "This situation is exactly the same as that of Hezhou Metallurgy." "That's why I invite you to come out of the mountain." Du Linxiang said, "How to temper the guerrillas step by step into a regular army in a complicated environment, you have a lot of methods. Compared with those returnees with great ambitions and poor talents, I don't know how many times stronger! " Zhuang Zhiqi said: "If you think of today as an interview, I chatted with Mr. Du about chess skills, metallurgical plants, and even many old things, but for work, especially the work of promoting companies to go public, Mr. Du Why didn't you mention it? Such an interview is somewhat unreasonable." "There are two reasons." Du Linxiang laughed loudly, "First of all, I haven't read many books. Even if I did construction and real estate later, I only knew a little bit of superficial knowledge. For the capital market, I really don't understand. I also want to Ask you a few words, but what can you ask? Even if you answer, how much can I understand?" Zhuang Zhiqi also smiled: "Mr. Du is really straightforward." "There is a second reason." Du Linxiang said, "When recruiting a middle-level manager, I only care about his performance during working hours, as long as he can complete the tasks I assigned, I am not interested in caring about whoring and gambling at other times. But when recruiting a senior executive, I care more about what he does after get off work, what he drinks during the day, what books he reads at night, what his personal hobbies are, and how he treats his family and friends. Yes. If you can do good deeds, you may not be a good person; if you can be a good person, you will definitely be able to do good deeds.” "Mr. Du is not only straightforward, but also has a leadership temperament that takes weight lightly. It is no wonder that Weitong can achieve today's achievements." With Zhuang Zhiqi's lonely and self-admiring personality, it is rare to spit out such kind words. Zhuang Zhiqi said slowly: "Thank you Mr. Du for the invitation. But the incident happened suddenly, I still want to think about it seriously." "No problem." Du Linxiang smiled sincerely and enthusiastically, "I'll give you a week to think about it." "There are a few more words, I want to spit them out quickly." Du Linxiang stubbed out his cigarette, "I, Du, boast that I spend money like water and love talents like my life. As long as they are talents, I don't hesitate to pay for tickets or cars. I know, you Zhuang Zhiqi doesn't have tickets or cars now, but I know better that you don't care about tickets or cars." Many times, Du Linxiang shows people with a naive attitude, but at this moment he is like a passionate orator: "There is a saying that 'you must aspire to do great things, don't aspire to be a high-ranking official'. However, if you are not a high-ranking official, how can you do great things? Commanding the armed forces with commoner clothes is written in novels, but is it possible in reality? So, today’s Zhuang Zhiqi doesn’t care about tickets or cars, but about seats. More precisely, he cares about a real field of use.” Zhuang Zhiqi was also infected by this atmosphere: "Mr. Du's words are in my heart." Du Linxiang continued: "I don't remember many poems in my life, but Song Jiang's sentence 'I have studied classics and history since I was a child, and I have grown up to be resourceful. It's like a tiger lying on a barren hill, lurking and enduring it', which can be regarded as deep in my memory. Today's Zhuang Zhiqi, isn’t that the tiger lying on the barren hills? Look at this room full of books and a stomach full of knowledge. It’s really aggrieved that I can’t achieve a vigorous career. What’s even more hateful is that it’s a tiger However, many people regard it as a sick cat. Hezhou Metallurgical was defeated, and the hero who made great contributions to the enterprise has become a scapegoat. You don't want to find an opportunity to let everyone see the tiger roaring in the mountains?" Du Linxiang noticed that Zhuang Zhiqi's right hand holding the cigarette was trembling slightly.He is confident that these words are enough to impress Zhuang Zhiqi!A BMW car may not be enough to tempt Zhuang Zhiqi, but how can a man who is underappreciated turn a blind eye to a chance to realize his life aspirations?Wang Shuchun once gave Zhuang Zhiqi such an opportunity, but it ended in tragedy.Therefore, Zhuang Zhiqi would be even more eager for a hearty victory! Du Linxiang's ability to observe words and deeds has long been perfected. Knowing that the purpose of this trip has been achieved, he got up and said goodbye: "I will come to ask for advice again in a week. I hope to hear good news." Du Linxiang knows that the most important thing for intellectuals is face. So he wants to give Zuzhuang Zhiqi face.A week later, instead of Zhuang Zhiqi contacting him, he went to the door again. When going out, Du Linxiang suddenly remembered something, and said: "After three games of chess, I know that I am not as good as you. But since I am a chess friend, I dare to say that besides not being good at playing Jianghu chess, you also have a weakness. " Zhuang Zhiqi said respectfully: "Please advise." "You are too afraid of pairing." Du Linxiang said, "Whenever I want to pair with you, you stay away. Your rook and that damn horse lose their power because of this. Of course, the master's move , generally don't advocate pairing, it's too untechnical. But I never care about these things, one horse for another, one gun for one gun, as long as you don't suffer losses, what are you afraid of. I'm willing to cut my body, dare to pull the emperor off the horse .” Du Linxiang smiled and said: "Your chess style is elegant, and you may disdain to take my wild way. But when it's time to make a move, don't hesitate." Zhuang Zhiqi was taken aback: "Mr. Du has a high opinion, and he has been taught."
