Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 633 If you don’t like it, don’t bother with it

Lao Liu continued to sigh and said: "Not to mention anything else, those brothers who followed him to become gangsters were all born as gangsters. Now many of them are on their own. I have to show courtesy to some of them when I meet them!"

"Whenever you see him come to the capital, he will always be the one to do whatever he wants. Every time he goes to the airport to pick him up, people line up. The person who ran errands for him just now is the chairman of a large company with an annual revenue of several billion!"

When Liu Cheng heard what his father said, he frowned and thought about Li Weidong's information, the second- and third-level subsidiaries under his name, as well as the industry he was engaged in and his status in the industry.

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became. Although this person was low-key and rarely showed up, the CEOs of the companies he invested in were all well-known, and many of them were business leaders.

I guess this is the real low profile.

Lao Liu faced his son and daughter. He saw his daughter's expression clearly. He knew that his daughter had listened to his words and he was very satisfied.

But looking at his son's still indifferent expression, he frowned and said, "We are all thirty, so why is there such a big gap? Can you give me some face?"

Lao Liu's son rolled his eyelids and kept silent. This was his magic weapon. When his father scolded him, he just listened and didn't need to refute, otherwise he would become a treasonous person in a short while.

And deep down, he didn't take his father's words seriously. He was just a bastard. With his father's status in the business world so high, was there any need for him to be like this?

No one knows his son better than his father. No matter how little he knew about his son's nature, Lao Liu didn't even need him to speak. With just one look, Lao Liu could guess the innermost feelings of his son.

"What's that expression on your face? Look at Li Weidong. You are considered the same age. What kind of status is that? Even I have to respect you. Look at you, doing nothing and idleness. When will you be able to save me some trouble!"

The two young marshals at the back heard the boss educating his children and stayed far away. They were not afraid that the boss would be unhappy, but they were afraid that the young master would drag them into trouble.

No matter how quarrelsome they are, they are father and son, father and daughter, a blood relationship that breaks the bones and connects the tendons. They are young marshals, and no matter how close they are to the boss, they are still outsiders, separated by their bellies.

"Dad, as for that, he's just a bastard. No matter how rich he is, he lacks some background and passion!" Lao Liu's son finally expressed his true feelings.

When Lao Liu heard what his son said, he raised his hands angrily and wanted to slap him, but looking at his thirty-year-old son and the subordinates next to him, he still didn't do it.

"You know what the heck, he comes from a poor background and has no background, but he himself has the foundation. Do you think he is just spending tens of billions of dollars for fun!" Lao Liu said in a low voice.

Next to him, Liu Cheng added: "I discussed it with a friend who is engaged in finance. Although there are different opinions on how to make the first pot of gold, most of the money is earned abroad and then invested in China. Someone has made a rough estimate.

, investing nearly 10 billion US dollars in succession!”

At present, the domestic foreign exchange reserves are only 150 billion US dollars, and Li Weidong alone accounts for several percentage points.

What's more, Li Weidong still holds a lot of US dollars in his hands, which is still liquid cash. In the era of the king of cash, no one can disrespect him.

"Look at your sister, stop going out to pick up girls and drink when you have nothing to do. Read more books and have some brains. Even if I die, I can close my eyes!" Lao Liu said with irony.

"You have a vivid mind, have ideas in your heart, and are interested in capital investment. But if you want to do investment in China, you can hardly avoid this person. Remember, even if you can't make friends with him, you must not make enemies!"

"Well, I know. I got along very well with his sister just now, and I even left her contact information!" Liu Cheng said with a smile. She felt that Li Weihong was relatively easy to deal with.

Lao Liu nodded with satisfaction. He valued his daughter more than his son. Sometimes he thought, if this was a son, it would be great, and the legacy he had built would not need to be passed on to others.

Thinking of this, Lao Liu remembered what Li Weidong said to him just now, which made him absent-minded even while eating, thinking about how to cut off a strong man's wrist.

The past few years have been Lenovo's glorious heyday. In these years, Lenovo has completed a leap into a large enterprise and has continuously ranked among the top 100 electronics companies in China.

It has become unrivaled in the country, and has even defeated foreign brands such as DELL, IBM, and COMPAQ, firmly occupying the largest share of the Chinese market.

But it also means that if the company has developed to its current level and wants to continue to achieve greater leaps, it is doomed to fail if it only follows the original products.

To make the cake bigger, spread the pancakes bigger, start a new business, and find new growth points, this is the prescription Lao Liu gives to the company, and it is also the prescription he gives to himself.

When China joins the WTO, it needs a few decent high-tech companies. If it can make Lenovo really walk on two legs and grow the company, even if the revenue is not good and the market value is bigger, it will still be an achievement, and it may allow it to take a step forward.

People's desires are always endless. Now that he is successful and famous, even if he continues to stay at Lenovo, so what? It's just more shares and more money.

But in China, unless he is as rich as Li Weidong, what is the use of his little money? Only power fascinates people.

Comrade Lao Liu seemed to have thought that he would be able to move from an enterprise to an agency in the near future and enjoy a transcendent life with both power and money. A smile appeared on his face.

"In two days, I will send you to report!" Comrade Lao Liu said to his daughter with a smile.

"You're sending me there, you're so busy?" Liu Cheng said with some surprise. Originally, Lao Liu had no intention of sending her away.

Why did his attitude suddenly change today? Liu Cheng, who thought he was very smart, did not guess the answer and could only look at his father with a questioning expression.

"Aren't you happy that I'm going to see you off?" Lao Liu asked pretending to be unhappy.

"How is it possible? It's too late for me to be happy. I have asked you to send me several times. It's a foreign country over there. Didn't you keep saying you were busy?" Liu Cheng said coquettishly.

"You know it's a foreign country, but you can still fly so far!" Lao Liu said angrily.

Then he continued with a sigh: "But your idea is right. It doesn't matter if you go out to study or see the world. We are going to join the WTO. Internationalization is advocated in everything. How can we become international if we stay at home all the time? We need to go out and see more."

Look, learn from advanced experiences abroad!”

Lao Liu's words are a bit ambiguous. He can't say that he will go abroad to investigate and recruit a few people who understand the Internet to manage the company!

It's better to keep it a secret until things are done, otherwise there will be many more twists and turns.

The United States is the birthplace of the Internet. Don’t look at these domestic Internet companies as being awesome, but fundamentally speaking, the United States is the master and they are the students.

Since we are looking for people with Internet thinking to lead Lenovo's Internet sector, we naturally have to learn from our masters and hire people from the United States.

After all, this is also the performance of a large international company. You say you are a large international company, but the management is all Chinese, so how can it be considered international?

The two young marshals standing in the distance didn't know what was going on. They just felt a little fluttering in their hearts, as if something had happened, and there was a trace of doubt in their eyes.

Even if Comrade Lao Liu invites several foreigners to lead the Internet sector, it is impossible to influence these two people in a short time, but after all, their power is dispersed, which will definitely have some impact. As the young commander who takes over,

The most fearful thing is this kind of uncontrollable variable.

Lao Liu's son curled his lips next to him. Although in Lao Liu's eyes, he was uneducated and unskilled, one thing was undeniable. Just as Lao Liu understood him, he also understood Lao Liu.

So he didn't believe Lao Liu's statement. It was obvious that this was a temporary idea, and it was still in the name of sending his daughter. There must be some unspeakable reasons.

Of course, if Li Weidong heard this, he would definitely understand its meaning, but Li Weidong was still not optimistic about it.

Domestic and foreign cultures and ideas are different, business models are different, and the management authority of “top leaders” is different.

If a person who does not understand the domestic waters becomes the "captain", it will be difficult to find out where there are hidden "icebergs", and the ship may hit the rocks and capsize at any time.

In China, Internet companies that can develop, at least in the early stages, all have a common characteristic: the founder has the final say.

Once the founder is no longer in power or leaves the company, the company will always go astray and end up either dying or going bankrupt.

This is also the reason why Li Weidong will not easily replace these people even if he is sometimes dissatisfied with the founders. After all, the loyalty of the domestic shopping malls is too strong. Killing these gang leaders will always have a sense of rebellion, and it is very likely that the group will be leaderless.

At this time, Li Weidong, who was sitting in the car, was leaning back comfortably on his chair with his eyes closed to relax. Naturally, he didn't know that he had reacted so quickly to Comrade Lao Liu's hint.

Li Weihong, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said, "Do you have a good relationship with Mr. Liu?"

Li Weidong moved, still closing his eyes and asked: "Why do you say that?"

"It's nothing, I just think that his daughter is very scheming at a young age and very experienced in dealing with people. She must have a family background!" Li Weihong said.

"People are ugly and do mischief. If you don't like them, just don't talk to them!" Li Weidong said lightly.

"Do you think she's ugly? I think she's pretty good. She's pretty young and pretty, and she's good-looking. Although she has a so-so figure, she has the temperament of a rich lady. She'll probably be pursued by many young boys!"

Seeing that Li Weidong didn't speak, Li Weihong continued: "It's not that I don't like it. Since there are no conflicts of interest, it's just that I don't think it's necessary to deal with it in this way!"

Since Li Weihong wants to engage in the legal profession, words are a tool, and what he studies is how to speak perfectly. There is definitely no problem with speaking, but sometimes he doesn't want to use this kind of rhetoric.

Now that Li Weidong actually said this, Li Weihong also understood what his brother meant. At least Li Weidong didn't like Comrade Liu, just for social entertainment.

"I'm going to Shencheng tomorrow, don't you have anything to say to me?" Li Weihong asked again.

"Auntie, why are you going to Shenzhen?" Li Rui asked reluctantly.

"Auntie also needs to eat, so of course she has to work!" Li Weihong said with a smile.

"I also want to eat, but I don't have to work!" Li Rui said with some pride.

"But you have to go to school. When you go to school, you work. Only by studying hard can you have food!" Li Weihong felt that her words were very educational.

"Oh, but mom said Brother Tai doesn't study hard, so why is he still so good at eating?" Li Rui asked again.

Li Weihong laughed from ear to ear when she heard her niece's words, which made Li Weidong laugh too.

"Idiot, my aunt lied to you. People have to eat when they are hungry!" Li Qian couldn't stand his sister's ignorance.

"You are so smart, why don't you get a hundred points in the test? If you don't study hard in the future, you will not have food to eat and you will be hungry all the time!" Li Weidong said.

Li Qian was honest. He didn't realize that every time he said his sister was stupid, he would be scolded by Li Weidong.

"Then I wish you success in your work and great success!" Li Weidong said to Li Weihong again.

Li Weihong rolled her eyes. It was obvious that this was not what she wanted to hear. She was going to work in another place, so her family had to talk a little bit.

"You can go about your career with peace of mind. I will take care of everything at home!" Li Weidong said in a teasing tone, then paused and continued, "If it's possible, I mean if it's possible, if you meet someone suitable, quickly find a partner.

Well, if you don’t look for me, you’ll have to look for your wife!”

"Curse me, do you think I'm a brother like you?" Li Weihong hit Li Weidong and said angrily.

"Okay, to be serious, we don't cause trouble when we go out, but if we encounter trouble, let's not be afraid of it!" Li Weidong said domineeringly.

Li Weidong keeps a low profile, but being low-key doesn't mean he is willing to suffer, let alone his family.

Li Weihong glanced at his brother gratefully, lowered his head and started playing with Li Rui without saying anything. If he was saying thank you to his brother, he would have seemed a little shy.

When the car was approaching the hotel, Zhou Shuangxi looked eagerly at the entrance of the hotel, for fear of missing Li Weidong's car.

Just now Doubiang told him that Li Weidong would be arriving at the hotel soon, but he had been waiting for more than 20 minutes and hadn't seen him yet. Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood the word "will be there soon" in Doubiang's mouth. As a Handong native, since he understood "will be there soon"

"I'll be there soon." I misunderstood it, which is really a sin.

After seeing Li Weidong's car appear, Zhou Shuangxi started waving even though he was far away, regardless of whether the people in the car could see him or not.

Before the car stopped, Zhou Shuangxi was already busy opening the door. However, the door was electric and the door lock would not open when the car was not stopped.

The car stopped, the electric door opened, Li Weidong got out of the car, Zhou Shuangxi said enthusiastically, "Brother!"

Li Weidong was also very happy when he saw Zhou Shuangxi. He punched Zhou Shuangxi on the chest twice with his fist and said with a smile: "Not bad, he even got on the plane!"

Zhou Shuangxi was staggered by Li Weidong's hammer, but he was very happy in his heart. The boss would not treat everyone like this, and only those close to him would occasionally enjoy this treatment.

Zhou Shuangxi chuckled and said: "At the critical moment, it is you who has to let me run by myself. There is no use even if I break my legs!"
