Rebirth 1989: My Unlucky Career

In this way, the journey that originally took more than a day took the two of them four days to reach Yangcheng.

However, in the past few days, Zhang Yun felt more relaxed than ever before.

After entering Yangcheng, Zhang Yun looked at the high-rise buildings on both sides of the road and said with some surprise:

"It turns out that Yangcheng is so developed now!"

Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he looked at the buildings and scenery in front of him.

He had been to Yangcheng decades later, but this was his first time in this life.

The buildings in front of me are still not comparable to what they were decades later, but they already have the shadow of a modern city.

This was 1989, and Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but be very surprised that he could already see the modern city.

In addition to buildings, Zhao Zhuo also noticed that there are a lot of private cars on the roads in Yangcheng.

You know, in Fengtian, it is almost impossible to see a jeep like the one driven by Zhao Zhuo. Nine times out of ten that occasionally speed by on the road are trucks and other transport vehicles or even tractors.

But in Yangcheng, there are cars on the street one after another, not just jeeps, but even cars!

Zhao Zhuo looked at the passing vehicles and asked Zhang Yun with a smile:

"What do you feel when you see these cars?"

Zhang Yun was stunned for a moment, then said:

"You will definitely feel it. Compared with our Fengtian city, Yangcheng has a lot more types and quantity of vehicles."

Zhao Zhuo then asked:

"Then what do you think this means?"

"What does it mean?"

Zhang Yun muttered to herself and repeated it, and then said:

"This shows that the economy of Yangcheng is more developed than that of Fengtian."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo smiled lightly and shook his head:

"This is just a superficial phenomenon, there are deeper factors that you haven't seen."

Hearing this, Zhang Yun couldn't help but become curious:

"Oh, is there anything I don't see?"

Zhao Zhuo saw Zhang Yun's confused expression, so he smiled and explained:

"Have you noticed that there are so many types of cars on the streets of Yangcheng? The main reason is that in addition to our domestic car brands, there are also many foreign car brands."

Hearing this, Zhang Yun understood somewhat:

"You mean to say that foreign trade along the Yangcheng coast should be more developed?"

Zhao Zhuo nodded:

"That's right! This is a very big advantage for us in doing business."

"Advantage?"

Zhang Yun didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Zhuo's words.

"I don't understand where the advantage comes from. Are you planning to start a car trade?"

Zhao Zhuo smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Of course it's not about car trading. This kind of business has high investment costs and high risks. We don't need to consider it yet."

Zhang Yun continued:

"Yes, then what are the advantages you mentioned?"

Zhao Zhuo smiled:

"If we don't do this kind of car business, we can do other foreign trade business.

Doing business is always about making up for each other's weaknesses. Foreign trade means that we can sell products that are low-priced abroad and scarce domestically, and sell products that are low-priced domestically but rare abroad.

Think about it, there is only one Yangcheng in the whole of China, how much business opportunities does it contain?"

After hearing this explanation, Zhang Yun somewhat understood:

"Isn't this the same as doing business with the Soviet Union?"

Zhao Zhuo smiled and nodded:

"Yes, what we do with the Soviet Union is foreign trade.

Just because of the special situation of the Soviet Union, the foreign trade with them is also relatively special, mainly focusing on barter, and the Soviet Union also has the greatest demand for ordinary daily necessities.

But if we want to do business in Yangcheng in the future, we need to break out of our previous thinking framework..."

…

The two of them chatted while driving, and soon arrived at the door of the hotel they had agreed with Li Mengshi.

At this time, Li Mengshi had already been waiting at the door for a long time.

After seeing Zhao Zhuo's license plate, Li Mengshi excitedly waved wildly at Zhao Zhuo and Zhang Yun's car.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Zhao Zhuo was quite excited to see Li Mengshi.

After parking the car, Li Mengshi rushed up with a smile and gave Zhao Zhuo a bear hug:

"How long has it been and you are finally here!"

After saying that, Li Mengshi walked towards Zhang Yun again.

When the two met for the first time, Zhang Yun subconsciously wanted to reach out and shake hands with Li Mengshi, but Li Mengshi also stepped forward and gave her a hug.

"Sister Zhang Yun, I have heard about you from Zhao Zhuo a long time ago, and we finally met today!

What Zhao Zhuo said is absolutely right, you are so beautiful!"

After hearing this and seeing Li Mengshi's enthusiasm, Zhang Yun's originally somewhat restrained mood relaxed.

Only Zhao Zhuo was confused: When did he say that Zhang Yun was beautiful in front of Li Mengshi?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhuo subconsciously looked at Li Mengshi and saw her blinking secretly at him. Only then did Zhao Zhuo react.

Zhang Yun smiled slightly:

"Sister Mengshi is indeed young and beautiful as she deserves her reputation."

Li Mengshi smiled and shook her head:

"Compared with you, Sister Zhang, my temperament is still far behind.

Otherwise, people say that if you have been in charge of a company alone for a long time, you will have the aura of being independent.

It seems that in this aspect, I can only wait and hone it slowly after accepting my family’s company.”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo smiled bitterly and expressed a different opinion:

"Why is it that Zhang Yun is in charge of the company alone? I'm obviously the boss of Zhuoyun Company, okay?"

When Li Mengshi heard this, she glanced at Zhao Zhuo with a half-smile:

"Humph, are you the only one who still acts as the boss of the company? You obviously just want to let go of the boss, okay?

You are so cool every time you run around, leaving sister Zhang Yun to manage the company by herself.

This time, if I hadn’t asked you to meet Sister Zhang Yun, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have remembered to ask Sister Zhang Yun to come over, right?”

Hearing this, Zhang Yun was stunned:

"Sister Mengshi, did you ask Zhao Zhuo to invite me?"

Li Mengshi opened her eyes and nodded:

"Yes, I told Zhao Zhuo that I wanted to get to know Sister Zhang Yun, so I asked him to convey the invitation to me."

Speaking of this, Li Mengshi asked with some confusion:

"Why, didn't Zhao Zhuo convey it to me?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yun turned around and stared at Zhao Zhuo closely.

"Zhao Zhuo, that's not what you told me at the beginning."

Li Mengshi's eyes followed closely.

When Zhao Zhuo saw this, he smiled awkwardly:

"Hahaha, why do you need to care about these details? As long as the results are correct, it will be fine.

If you two want to meet, let’s meet now. Don’t worry about other things so much.”

Hearing this, Zhang Yun and Li Mengshi snorted in unison, protesting against Zhao Zhuo's unreliability.
