Chapter 536 We’ve reached this point, keep walking and see

Not to mention how Qiao Simei was annoyed by her sister's oppression and control, Xiang Dongfang came downstairs quickly after following Cao Zhiqiang.

I thought Cao Zhiqiang was going to talk to her downstairs, but who knew that Cao Zhiqiang remained silent and continued to walk forward with his head buried in the ground.

Since Cao Zhiqiang continued walking without saying a word, Xiang Dongfang had no choice but to follow him.

The building where Cao Lili and Qiao Simei live was originally a fund-raising family building of a primary school, so it was built inside the campus, just in the corner of the school.

Therefore, although the family building in this period did not have the concept of a community and did not have many green belts, because it was a school family building, you only had to walk a short distance outside to reach the edge of the school playground.

It was already evening at this time, and the elementary school did not have evening self-study at this time, so it was quite nice to take a walk along the edge of the playground.

At least there is no one around here in the open space, so if you want to whisper something, you don't have to worry about being heard.

Xiang Dongfang is actually quite confused right now. He really wants to explain the matter to Cao Zhiqiang right away, and then leave quickly and return to his newly rented house.

This kind of uneasy, nervous and irritable situation is rare, at least in her short life, it is very rare.

Even when facing her seemingly serious and powerful father, Xiang Dongfang has never been so flustered.

But facing Cao Zhiqiang, even if she just faced his back, she felt flustered, her heartbeat accelerated, and she was even a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Xiang Dongfang is not an ordinary person after all. After walking with Cao Zhiqiang for a while, she may have adapted to the situation, or she may have broken the pot, but she became calmer and calmer.

Unknowingly, Cao Zhiqiang brought Xiang Dongfang to the table tennis court.

Table tennis is now a national sport, and any elementary school with some level of skill basically has a table tennis table.

There is also a table tennis court here, but it is open-air, and the table tennis table is also made of cement, which looks strong and durable.

Next to the open-air table tennis court, there are some long cement benches, which are obviously used for people to rest.

"Shall we sit there?" Cao Zhiqiang suddenly pointed to a nearby cement bench and asked.

"Well, okay." Xiang Dongfang nodded.

Cao Zhiqiang looked at Xiang Dongfang, and then he didn't play with ladies first, but continued to go and sit down first.

This is not that Cao Zhiqiang does not respect women, but if he does not do this, Xiang Dongfang will definitely not leave first. After all, he is Xiang Dongfang's leader, and in this era, people are very particular about superiority and inferiority, even in private.

Therefore, if Cao Zhiqiang gives in to Xiang Dongfang, it will only make the situation more embarrassing.

On the contrary, it is better to go there first and let her follow you, and nothing will happen.

This is something I learned many times before.

After the two of them sat side by side on a long cement bench, Cao Zhiqiang crossed his legs and supported the surface of the bench with his hands, using a very comfortable posture to look at the increasingly dim sunset on the horizon.

As I watched and watched, I suddenly felt warm.

After smiling slightly, Cao Zhiqiang turned to look at Xiang Dongfang, who was sitting upright, and turned his head away from her again. He continued to look at the sunset and said: "Dongfang, don't be restrained, just relax a little, just come out and walk with me and watch the sunset.

.”

"Yes." Xiang Dongfang obediently turned his head and looked at the sunset, his shoulders relaxed a little, but he did not cross his legs like Cao Zhiqiang and support the cement bench with both hands.

Cao Zhiqiang suddenly sighed: "Speaking of which, since I came... since my mother passed away, I have never been able to stop and look at the sunset quietly like now.

I feel like I am busy every day. Before this thing is finished, another thing comes up. I can only do this and that non-stop, as if there are always endless things to do.

I am busy every day and rack my brains every day, just like a clock that is wound up.

Suddenly, I realized that I was walking too fast and was only chasing the wind, but I missed so many beautiful scenery around me."

Hearing what Cao Zhiqiang said, Xiang Dongfang couldn't help but smile: "That may be because you think too much, want to do too much, and always want to do it quickly."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled hoarsely: "Haha, it's easy to talk to you. Yes, I asked for it voluntarily, and I can't blame anyone. What I say now can only be regarded as hypocrisy."

"You can't say that." Xiang Dongfang turned to look at Cao Zhiqiang, "Those who are capable work hard. You are not an ordinary person, and you are young and energetic. You want to do something early to prove yourself. This is normal and very normal.

Reasonable.

On the contrary, if you have the ability but don't use it, you will just waste your time, which will be a waste of resources and talent.

As for how you feel now, you are probably tired and you should be fine after a good rest."

Cao Zhiqiang turned his head and glanced at Xiang Dongfang, and smiled: "Xiang Dongfang, you are really smart. I can't hide anything from you. I'm not as good as you."

"You are joking." Xiang Dongfang laughed, "You are much better than me. Don't say that I was not as good as you when I was your age. Even if I am a few years older than you now, my achievements are far inferior to yours.

, you are really better than me."

"No." Cao Zhiqiang laughed at himself, "I'm really not as good as you. I look better than you, just because I have a problem."

"Are you worried?" Xiang Dongfang frowned, "What do you mean?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled calmly: "It's nothing, it's just, well, I may have more flashes of inspiration, but in terms of overall IQ, I'm not as good as you."

"Most of the progress of human civilization is due to a sudden flash of inspiration." Xiang Dongfang laughed, "Just like Newton, if it wasn't for a sudden flash of inspiration, how could he deduce universal gravity from an apple?"

"Ha, Newton's epiphany depended on apples? Do you believe this?" Cao Zhiqiang laughed.

"Even if the rumors are false, the beginning of any great invention must be a flash of inspiration." Xiang Dongfang said with a smile, "If you have so many flashes of inspiration, you are almost as good as a great man."

"Hey." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head with a smile, "I understand now. It's not that geniuses don't know how to praise others, but once they praise others, nothing will happen to others."

Xiang Dongfang smiled and said: "I'm just stating the facts I saw. Anyway, no matter what others think, in my eyes, you are a truly talented genius, but you lack a little persistence, your temper is too out-of-the-box, and your interests are not good enough."

Too broad.

If you can settle down and study one thing, your achievements will be higher and you will become a true master in some fields."

"Thank you for your compliment." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "I know this problem, but it is difficult to change."

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang looked towards the sunset again.

Yes, in fact, by this time, Cao Zhiqiang had already discovered his problem.

Don't look at it. So far, Cao Zhiqiang has been successful and has opened a large stall. But in fact, he just spread the stall but did not go deep into it.

So far, although he has occupied a place in the poetry world, he can still only be regarded as a new poet, not a true master.

Although he became a blockbuster in pop songs, he still cannot compare with veteran singers such as Teresa Teng.

If you think about it carefully, although Cao Zhiqiang has done a lot since time travel, most of his time has been spent paving the way for his own works.

For example, when Cao Zhiqiang wrote poems and published them, he thought about opening his own publishing house, publishing his own novels, and maximizing profits. It was precisely because of this that he put his idea into Shazhu and wanted to contact big leaders through Shazhu.

, and then get a shortcut to the south.

Although the shortcut to the south is only one of Cao Zhiqiang's plans, it is indeed one of Cao Zhiqiang's plans, but it is a plan with a low success rate.

But what he didn't expect was that the plan to contact the big leaders through Sha Zhu, which he thought had a low success rate, came surprisingly early, and it passed surprisingly well, even better than Cao Zhiqiang's original expectation.

Without the protection of the big leader, that is, Uncle Xu, he would not have the full support of the factory's Secretary Dong and Director Li. Naturally, he would not have the opportunity to contract a publishing house, and he would not have a publishing organization of his own.

Give yourself the possibility to publish and distribute your works.

In China at this time, it would be very difficult for a writer to become rich by writing poetry if he could not control a publishing organization. After all, the royalties at this time were basically bought out, and there was no split at all.

Cao Zhiqiang became a millionaire by writing books. He said it was due to his policies and talents, but in fact, the root cause was his great leadership.

Without a big leader, there would be no Hongguang Publishing House. Without Hongguang Publishing House, it would be impossible for him to become a millionaire and become a decisive figure in a very short time.

And with his own publishing house, he not only had money, but also power. He could paint according to his own will within a certain range in the early stage of the reform trend.

For example, we cooperated with Hongguang Machinery Factory to build convenience kiosks like newsstands, cooperated with Hongguang Machinery Factory to develop internal logistics, and used the name of Hongguang Machinery Factory to build audio-visual companies and movie studios, one after another.

, are all things that others think are unbelievable, but he did them all in a very short period of time.

It can be said that if you don't look at Cao Zhiqiang's actual age and only look at his current actions and status, he can definitely be called a leader with real power.

If I don’t talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the director of Hongguang Film Studio. He is a proper senior cadre.

There are also the president of a publishing house, the general manager and chairman of an audio-visual company, and the major shareholder of Hongguang Department Store. These are all great positions.

From this perspective, Cao Zhiqiang spent most of his time after time travel relying on these abilities to integrate resources. He actually spent very little time relying on the system to write songs.

Of course, that's what I say, but fundamentally, Cao Zhiqiang was able to obtain those opportunities to integrate high-quality resources because of system cheating.

If it weren't for Cao Zhiqiang's poems that became famous in one fell swoop, and by some strange combination of circumstances, he cooperated with the Writer's Publishing House to set up a secret share-sharing system and became a household worth ten thousand yuan early, there would have been no chance for him to frame the Wei army and clear his name.

Without that opportunity, Cao Zhiqiang would not have been able to easily get rid of the past, wash away the dark history of his predecessor, and seize the pigtails to repay the favor and blackmail Silly Zhu into introducing the big leader.

Even if there is an opportunity to introduce a big leader, if Cao Zhiqiang hadn't relied on his ability to cheat and rely on his own strength to win the favor of the big leader and make them willing to give him a chance to try, he would never have met him later.

Uncle Wang is even less likely to get the opportunity to start and contract a publishing house.

And later, if Cao Zhiqiang hadn't published his own works through Hongguang Publishing House in a very short period of time, and obtained a huge amount of cash flow in a short period of time, allowing Director Li to see the opportunity to lead the factory out of the predicament, it would not have been possible.

Received strong support from Director Li and Secretary Dong.

Without the strong support of Director Li and Secretary Dong, Cao Zhiqiang’s subsequent series of operations would not have been possible.

Yes, although the big leader, Uncle Xu, is very powerful, when he met Cao Zhiqiang and appreciated him, he had already taken a back seat and did not have much real power.

Uncle Xu just has a good reputation, good connections, and is willing to provide opportunities to young people.

For example, the Hongguang Publishing House was not run by Uncle Xu, but by his own reputation, he hired the powerful leader to take charge of it, Uncle Wang. Uncle Wang looked at Uncle Xu for his face, and he also recognized Cao Zhiqiang's talent and ability.

, of course there are special circumstances of the times, so we agreed to set up a pilot project.

But even in that pilot project, the rules were strictly followed, and Hongguang Machinery Factory was asked to take the lead in opening a state-owned publishing house, and then Cao Zhiqiang was contracted to do so. It was not directly asking Cao Zhiqiang to open a private publishing house.

What Cao Zhiqiang did was actually to use his talent and performance to exploit loopholes in a special era with the support of big leaders. But after exploiting the loopholes, whether he can continue depends on the leaders who are actually in charge, not those who are superior.

Great leader.

Director Li of Hongguang Machinery Factory is a leader who can take charge now. Without his strong support, all the subsequent operations of Cao Zhiqiang would not be possible. The reason why Director Li can fully support Cao Zhiqiang is that Cao Zhiqiang can give him

Bring tangible benefits.

Therefore, what Cao Zhiqiang has been busy with is not writing poems, songs and cooking, but forming his own interest group, or forming his own small circle. The prerequisite for forming this small circle is the ability given to him by the system.

, and the characteristics of the times.

Now is an era of early reform and opening up, where everything is possible and everything can be tried, so he has the opportunity to play like this.

If all systems are settled, he won't be able to play with these things.

It is precisely because of this that Cao Zhiqiang has always had a sense of urgency, like a tightly wound clockwork, constantly running and busy, with no real rest time.

Maybe it was because of this that he was so lustful and had several women. This was actually different from his nature in his previous life.

Although Cao Zhiqiang could have a harem with envy on the Internet in his previous life, it was actually very difficult for him to do this himself.

Only after he came here, as the situation changed and as the pressure increased, he gradually became more and more excited.

Possessing those beautiful women may not be love, let alone helplessness, but he wants to find some comfort from those women and suppress his inner excitement and impetuosity.

But now he realized that in terms of reducing stress and having sex with those women, it might be better to talk to this smart genius girl, or simply walk and watch the sunset.

After calming down, Cao Zhiqiang realized that he suddenly didn't know what he was pursuing.

Busy, busy, busy, what does he want?

If he just wanted to live a good and free life, he could have done it a long time ago. Why should he continue to be so busy? Even do many dangerous actions?

Serve the country and the people? Do you really have such a high consciousness?

He doesn't know the answer yet, but he knows that he doesn't want to stop and can't stop, at least not yet.

"Forget it, why are you thinking so much?" Cao Zhiqiang suddenly sighed, "We have come to this point, just keep walking and see."

Immediately afterwards, it seemed that it was getting dark and the street lights on the campus were on. Cao Zhiqiang stood up and turned to look at Xiang Dongfang: "Walking with me again?"

Xiang Dongfang was stunned, stood up with a smile and said: "Okay, no problem, but..."

"But what?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.

"Don't you have anything to ask me?" Xiang Dongfang looked at Cao Zhiqiang, "Aren't you going to invite me out for a private interview?"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "I've finished asking you all the questions I need to ask you, and I've finished all I need to say."

Xiang Dongfang frowned: "But, are you really not curious about my moving away?"

Cao Zhiqiang glanced at Xiang Dongfang and smiled slightly: "You are free. You have your own reasons for what you want to do. Even if I am curious, how can I ask?

Of course, if you want to talk to me, I am willing to listen, but are you willing to talk to me and tell the truth?"

Xiang Dongfang looked at Cao Zhiqiang and opened his mouth, then suddenly laughed, so hard that he held his stomach and laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.

"What are you laughing at?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned.

Xiang Dongfang covered his stomach with one hand and kept laughing, and waved to Cao Zhiqiang with the other hand, meaning that she couldn't stop now and asked her to laugh a little longer.

Seeing her like this, Cao Zhiqiang subconsciously looked around and found that no one was watching. Then he looked helplessly at Xiang Dongfang, watching her continue to laugh as if no one was around.

After a while, Xiang Dongfang finally stopped laughing, wiped the tears from his eyes, and then smiled lightly at Cao Zhiqiang:

"Sorry, I'm laughing at ridiculous people. I'm laughing at those ridiculous people who can't see through you and don't know what you want or want. They think they understand you and understand you, but they are actually a bunch of idiots. Hahaha.

,That's ridiculous."

Upon hearing what she said, Cao Zhiqiang became even more confused: "Nani? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Xiang Dongfang laughed, suddenly like a child, he walked over with his hands behind his back and said: "If you don't understand, just think about it slowly, anyway, I won't tell you, at least not now!

When one day you really understand it and are willing to come to me again, it won't be too late for me to tell you.

Okay, let’s not talk about that anymore, come on, let’s take a walk together, ah, I suddenly realized that walking in such an environment is really good, hehehe.”

Cao Zhiqiang scratched his head and murmured softly: "There's something wrong! What's going on? Is it fun to play riddles? I'm not a riddler! Forget it, geniuses are always different, I don't want to think about it, as long as everyone is happy, it will be fine

.”

After saying that, Cao Zhiqiang trotted to follow Xiang Dongfang: "Miss Dongfang, walk slowly, it's dark and the road is slippery, be careful of falling!"
