Reinventing the Millennium

The Forbes rich list is announced.

Fang Zhuo also ended his work in the United States and prepared to return to China to meet his fellow villagers in his hometown.

On January 25, one week before the Lunar New Year, he, Yu Hong and the employees who were on leave took a flight to Shanghai International Airport.

Because we had already talked about too many work-related matters, Fang Zhuo tried his best to pick some light topics along the way.

As a small gift that I want in the near future, and Xiao Yu occasionally goes to watch Yao Ming play, the plan to buy the team is worth talking about.

"$450 million? That's too expensive!"

When Yu Hong heard the offer from the Rockets from her boss, she couldn't help but curse.

"It's a bit expensive, but if you can make an offer, you can make a counter-offer. I'm afraid Alexander won't offer it. Since he gave the price, he is willing to sell the team that he originally bought for 85 million." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "In 10 years, 5 times The price is very good.”

"What about the other teams mentioned last time? Are the cheap ones not considered?" Yu Hong asked again.

"The main thing is that the city is suitable. If I can buy it before the transfer period after the end of this season, I will match Dayao with a defender who can pass the ball, pack Francis with a few substitutes, and then replace him with an All-Star player." Fang Zhuo said enthusiastically Talk about rough plans.

Yu Hong frowned: "Francis is very good to Dayao. He is the starting point guard of the Western Conference All-Stars. You want to trade him? Hey, don't mess around. Where can I find someone here who knows how to pass the ball? Defender?"

Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "What about Nash, Kidd, etc. It seems that Nash's contract with the Mavericks will expire this year."

Yu Hong frowned and thought.

Fang Zhuo flipped through the newspaper casually, and he really had a plan in his mind to transform the current Rockets lineup. Nash had to switch to the Suns because he was not valued by the Mavericks. This was the later double MVP with top passing skills.

McGrady is still with the Magic now, and if I remember correctly, he was traded next season, but his cousin Carter can also be considered, as his body is more durable.

Nash + Carter + Yao Ming, coupled with a defensive striker, this lineup can always compete for the championship.

"Oh, yes, I don't like the Rockets' current coach Van Gundy very much. He is too old-fashioned. If there is a suitable candidate, he will be replaced." Fang Zhuo thought of something again.

Yu Hong was delighted: "Okay, okay, Mr. Fang is really speaking like a team owner. He will change the team's star player and coach before he buys it."

Fang Zhuo smiled slightly: "Yao Yao said that I understand football, aren't you convinced? If you don't understand, just watch carefully."

"I think Dayao will probably regret saying this to you in a few months." Yu Hong said half-jokingly.

"It was too late by then. Besides, he is just a player, can he still interfere with the boss's affairs?" Fang Zhuo said.

"What if Yao Ming asks you to keep Francis?" Yu Hong asked.

Fang Zhuo shrugged: "Business is business."

The mantra of the Basketball Business League is, business is business.

Yu Hong was indignant: "Bah, capitalist!"

Fang Zhuo smiled: "That is also a good capitalist who can help the little giant realize his championship dream."

"We'll wait until you realize it." Yu Hong also opened the newspaper, "You'd better rest more and wait until you go back to accept interviews from major media."

Fang Zhuo thought for a while and said: "I was thinking about it last night, but actually there is nothing to say. I can't talk about the institutional platform, nor can I explain the fluctuations in market value. If I want to talk, I can only talk about Yike's products and layout, but This is something I have repeatedly told the media.”

Yu Hong commented: "It's a problem for capitalists, so don't accept interviews. It's better to keep a low profile."

"No, no, no, everything must have a certain degree. This will make it easier for the company to do things." Fang Zhuo thought for a moment, "I can't just follow my personal preferences."

Yu Hong said understandingly: "Then be more high-sounding during interviews and be more low-key on weekdays. Anyway, you are good at this."

Fang Zhuo nodded deeply and fully accepted the praise.

By the time the passenger plane landed at Shanghai International Airport, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

In the parking lot, a red Ferrari Enzo was parked quietly, next to two commercial vehicles that Yi Ke came to pick up.

"Mr. Fang, you are so low-key." Yu Hong looked at the car, the only Enzo in Shanghai, in astonishment.

"This is a decision made before boarding the plane." Fang Zhuo shrugged, "Let's go, I'll take you back and take a ride on the way."

Yu Hong held the lever of the suitcase and asked expressionlessly: "President Fangda, where can I put my suitcase?"

"Well, we can throw your suitcase into the commercial vehicle and have it delivered to your home." Fang Zhuo proposed a solution.

Yu Hong agreed, but also made a kind suggestion: "Mr. Fang, I hope that one day Yi Ke will not deal with things as inefficiently as you do today, otherwise I will go crazy."

The organizational structure of a company is indeed a topic worthy of discussion.

Fang Zhuo doesn't mind driving a sports car and chatting with his marketing director about this.

The two said goodbye to the employees who were traveling back to China. When the commercial vehicle drove out of the parking lot, they got into the Enzo and headed home despite the chilly wind at the end of January.

…

——"Yike President Fang Zhuo, who was successfully listed on Nasdaq earlier this month, returned to China yesterday and declined media interviews."

——"It is reported that Fang Zhuo successfully climbed to the top of the mainland's richest list through Yike. Yesterday he drove a Ferrari back home in a very high-profile manner, suspected to be accompanied by his girlfriend."

——"Exclusive news from Sina, Mr. Fang Zhuo, Chairman of Sina, will be a guest on Sina Sports' interview program today. Netizens are welcome to watch on time at 8 o'clock in the evening."

Chengdu, Sichuan Province.

Ni Runfeng, the head of Changhong, who attended high-pressure meetings for two consecutive days, rubbed his temples and read the wireless newspaper messages received on his mobile phone.

Oh, Xiao Fang has returned to China.

Xiao Fang has become the richest man in the country.

Xiao Fang always drives a Ferrari and takes his female companion with him.

I'm so envious - I'm envious of the richest man.

Ni Runfeng sincerely envied the wealth he had achieved through his business.

In today's era of great economic development across the country, what is wealth?

It is a manifestation of ability, and those who can make money are heroes.

Ni Runfeng let out a long sigh. Changhong's current problems can be attributed to just one problem: the company is no longer making money.

Before he put down his cell phone, a call from Fang Ah Ma suddenly came in.

"Lao Ni, I'm back to China." Fang Zhuo's clear voice sounded in the receiver.

"Mr. Fang, congratulations, congratulations. Although I knew you were going to become the richest man this time when I was in New York, I still want to say congratulations when I read the newspaper." Ni Runfeng felt very respected. He just returned to China yesterday and contacted him today.

"Lao Ni, stop being polite and get down to business. It seems that our company is about to find Mr. Ji in New York. I will let you know as soon as possible if there is any progress." Fang Zhuo got straight to the point, "If you encounter any trouble here, tell me in time. , OK?”

Ni Runfeng perked up: "Is there any news about Mr. Ji?"

"Yes, but I'm not sure yet. I guess it will take a while." Fang Zhuo replied.

Ni Runfeng considered this news in his mind, and suddenly felt that judging from the situation after the two-day meeting, even if there was traces of Mr. Ji, it would be difficult to respond to the accusations from all parties. Even if APEX was willing to solve the problem, it would not be immediately useful.

But he still thanked: "Okay, thank you very much, Mr. Fang. I won't say much else. Mr. Fang doesn't dislike it. We are friends."

"Well, that's it, don't forget it." Fang Zhuo paused, "Happy New Year, Lao Ni."

Ni Runfeng said sincerely: "Mr. Fang, happy New Year."

Two people who had returned to China from New York got on the line. One wanted to stretch out his claws, and the other felt that there was still a straw to grasp.

I got home late, I will update another chapter at noon tomorrow.
