Chapter 144: Good things come in a row (4) Yao Yi thought of this and said, "Well, let me meet this Chinese-American you mentioned and see what kind of clever tricks he has."

Yuwen Lingxuan said: "I have invited him over, and now he is chatting with the old master in the living room."

Yao Yi said: "Oh, that's it, let them chat first, and I will sleep for a while."

Yu Wen Lingxuan said: "Little master, please don't say goodbye. It's rude of us to keep you waiting for too long. It's better to get up and see you now."

Yao Yi looked at her watch and said: "Oh! It's almost eleven o'clock. I'll sleep for another half hour. It will be time for lunch soon. Let's chat while we eat. Let me sleep a little longer. I have been sleeping for the past two days.

So sleepy."

After Yao Yi finished speaking, she got into the bed.

Yuwen Lingxuan shook his head and said to himself: "What a child. Oh, let him sleep for a while."

Yao Yi thought to herself: "It's not that I won't go out. The key is that I haven't figured out why this guy came to the door. On the surface, he is doing academic research, but the research pays attention to the scientific nature, even if it is humanistic research, it pays attention to

It is also an empirical scientific research method. Any idiot will understand that the most scientific way for a researcher is not to intervene and not affect the subject of his research. However, he wants to be the general manager and help me carry out system reform and also carry out institutional reform.

Academic research is really nonsense. I am a local boss and do not understand what academic research is. After all, in my previous life, I was also a doctor of medicine, so this academic research thing was also clear to me."

Yao Yi tossed and turned in bed and thought about it. After forming a rough idea and several ideas in his mind, he washed up and went to meet the Chinese-American for a while.

When Yao Yi came to the living room, a sumptuous lunch was already on the table.

In the living room, there is a middle-aged man dressed in white with a top hat standing next to him. He wears gold-rimmed glasses and looks polite.

When he saw Yao Yi coming in, he stood up and said, "If I guess correctly, this is Boss Yao Yi."

Yao Yi looked at the Chinese-Americans and said with a smile: "When you arrive at our house, you don't have to guess about anything. You can understand it at a glance, because our Yao family is very transparent and open. It is in line with the openness and transparency advocated by the United States."

The Chinese-American smiled and said: "Boss Yao is not only wise, but also very humorous. You are famous far and wide. I have heard of your name in the United States."

Yao Yi opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "What? Have you heard of me in the United States? This is not a joke. I have never been to the United States. How do you Americans know about me?"

The Chinese-American said: "Haha, people's reputation has no national boundaries, it can even travel through time and space."

Yao Yi thought to herself: "You guys are really good at deceiving me. Let me listen to your explanation later."

Yao Yi said: "Haha, I'm hungry. Let's eat. Let's try it. This is our Yao family's specialty. Our Yao family's kitchen is not called a kitchen."

The Chinese-American asked curiously: "If it's not called kitchen, what is it called? Is it in English?"

Yao Yi smiled and said: "That's not true, we are not so fond of foreigners. The kitchen of the ancient emperor was called the imperial kitchen, and the kitchen of our Yao family is called the medicinal kitchen, haha."

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

Yao Xuanhu said: "Come, come, sit down and have a taste."

Everyone was talking and chatting. During the chat, Yao Yi learned that this Chinese-American named Mei Shengcai, whose English name is Bruce-Mei, is from Suizhou in the south. He was born in the United States and belongs to the second generation of Chinese-Americans.

. He was once a top student at Harvard University, and later taught at New York University and worked as a professional manager in a financial institution in New York. He engaged in academic research and worked as a professional manager until two years ago, when he resigned to focus on academic research full-time.

After dinner, when it was Yao Xuanhu's lunch break, Yao Yi took Yu Wen Lingxuan and Mei Shengcai to the company headquarters building.

Mei Shengcai asked: "Boss Yao, what age is this building?"

Yao Yi said: "This is the ancestral property left to me by my grandfather. It is quite old, at least a hundred years old. When this building was built, it was the first floor in the capital. Haha, it has a lot of cultural heritage."

Mei Shengcai said: "Yes, it used to be the first floor in the capital, but now he is no longer, and in the future, it will be increasingly unlikely that he will be the first floor in the capital, let alone a demonstration of your company's strength. His presence in

In the future, it can only become the cultural coordinate of the company."

Yao Yi smiled and said: "Mr. Mei, you think our company's headquarters building is a bit old, but I also like it here, I like it here too."

Mei Shengcai said: "Boss Yao, you cannot define the company's development based on your preferences. Judging from the company structure you have built, I think you are a talented and ambitious owner with long-term planning and strategic vision.

But there are some aspects that need improvement. If your company just wants to develop constantly, this office building is enough. But now that your tentacles have extended to all parts of the country, this building is not the right one at this time.

Instead of showing your company’s cultural heritage, you need to have a powerful building through which you can declare your status as king to the outside world.”

Yao Yi smiled and said: "Mr. Mei, I am not the king yet. You have lived in the United States all year round. You don't understand the Chinese people's concealment, let alone the Chinese people's modesty and prudence. Don't talk about me, you go

Take a look at Shiyitang, the largest traditional Chinese medicine company in the country. Their office building is colder than ours. Why? Hiding it is the key. However, in the industry, no one can deny his kingship.

Even our Keats Hall has to look up to it, even though we have a nice office building."

Mei Shengcai said: "You are right. I am a typical banana person. I look like a yellow person on the outside, but the inner world is the culture of the white people. Even so, don't forget that we currently dominate the world.

What matters most is the culture of Western white people, and our Chinese culture has declined. You don’t have a deep understanding of it in the capital. If you go to the coastal city of Suizhou in the south, you will see that there are young people everywhere who advocate Western culture, and this

This trend is getting stronger and stronger. Of course, I am not criticizing Chinese civilization, I just want to talk about a social phenomenon, and we as businesses must follow the trend, so that we can follow the trend."

Yao Yi said: "Mr. Mei, I have always had a question in my mind. Can I ask you for advice?"

Mr. Mei said: "Boss Yao, please tell me."

Yao Yi said: "What I don't understand is that as a professor at the University of Washington, your income and treatment are middle-class in the United States. Why do you want to go all the way back to China? The treatment at home is far inferior to that abroad.

compared to."

Mei Shengcai said: "I will tell you a story, do you want to hear it?"
