Huayu since 1980

Chapter 385 Zhou Tao returns to China (4000+ chapters, please subscribe~)

Li Lianjie has not come to Yanjing yet, but Zhou Tao and his wife have already returned to Yanjing.

The two who have been studying in the United States for two years have finally completed their studies. Don't think that this kind of thing seems to be two years. To Zhou Tao, it has been several years.

A few years ago, he just worked outside with Wu Jianye, and he had already presciently used his usual time to study. When he had some money, he found a local college student in Shanghai and started to study systematically, because Zhou Tao's foundation Too weak, and even reprimanded by college students.

There is no way, college students in this era are still very proud, and Zhou Tao is very respectful in front of them. According to Zhou Tao's words, they are all their own teachers, and students should respect their teachers.

But after the student who reprimanded Zhou Tao graduated, in the upsurge of going overseas in the whole country, when he realized that he wanted to find some former students, Zhou Tao borrowed some money as start-up capital, but Zhou Tao directly refused up.

Zhou Tao’s statement is also very simple. When I was in your class, I should respect you, but after the class, I also gave the money, so we have nothing to do with each other. Since you think you are awesome, that’s fine. , go out on your own.

Of course, this is just an individual teacher. The other students who are responsible for lecturing to Zhou Tao have always performed very well. After graduation, Zhou Tao helped to complete any ideas.

It was because of this experience that Zhou Tao later went to the United States to study and had a good foundation.

"Grandma, the flight is exhausting us."

Zhou Tao, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, was sitting in the back of the jeep, pulling his tie, and couldn't help complaining.

Sitting next to him is Sun Qing. Sun Qing is not simply following Zhou Tao to take care of his life in the United States, but is studying with Zhou Tao. It is said that
Sun Qing's grades are even better than Zhou Tao's.

This once made Zhou Tao very depressed, because he found that his wife was crushing him in all directions.

"How is Linlin's situation now?" Sun Qing gave Zhou Tao a white look, and then asked Wu Jianye who was sitting in the co-pilot.

"The baby will be born in two months." Wu Jianye said with a smile.

Zhu Zhu's due date is at the end of July and early August, and now the courtyard has entered a state of alert. Wu Jianye even invited doctors and nurses to live in the courtyard, just to worry about emergencies.

Anyway, there are many courtyard houses, so there is no need to worry about running out of space.

"I thought you had to be sent to Xiangjiang to give birth!" Sun Qing said.

Now Zhou Tao's son and daughter have been sent to Xiangjiang, and the eldest son has been sent to kindergarten. It is the best kindergarten in Xiangjiang, and the tuition fee for one year is [-] Hong Kong dollars!

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Let's talk about this kind of thing later, we don't need that Xiangjiang passport!"

Sun Qing said with some dissatisfaction: "How can children's affairs be so casual? Anyway, the education in Xiangjiang is better than that in China."

Wu Jianye said helplessly: "Casual will definitely not be casual, but now the child's grandma, grandma and grandpa are all here, believe it or not, if I dare to say send it to Xiangjiang, those three old people will fight with me! "

"Besides, I actually don't want my child to go to Xiangjiang so early, let him be born in China, and let him be contaminated with the domestic atmosphere first. As for him when he is at the age of school, let's talk about it!"

Zhou Tao chimed in and said, "That's right, if Lao Wu wants to send it there, it's only a matter of minutes. There's nothing to worry about!"

Sun Qing nodded, agreeing with the two of them, but she still felt that Zhou Tao was not on her side, so she glared at Zhou Tao again.

Then Zhou Tao withered.
Knowing that Zhou Tao and his wife were coming, my mother had already prepared meals for them, so when Wu Jianye and the others returned to the courtyard, the family had already prepared meals in the yard.

Although there are special restaurants in the courtyard.

But everyone still likes to eat in the yard, especially now that the weather is not too cold or hot, and a group of people gather around to eat in the middle of the yard, which looks even more lively.

"Mother, uncle, aunt!" Zhou Tao and Sun Qing called each other obediently after seeing the old lady and Zhu Zhu's parents.

The old lady said with a smile: "Hurry up and wash your hands and eat!"

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "Okay, ma'am, you don't know, the past two years abroad have made me miss our domestic steamed buns and stir-fried vegetables!"

"If you think about it, eat more!" The old lady smiled and patted Zhou Tao on the shoulder. Zhou Tao and Wu Jianye grew up together, so the old lady naturally liked Zhou Tao very much.

"Okay!" Zhou Tao and Sun Qing said with a smile.

"It's still more comfortable to eat vegetables with chopsticks!" Zhou Tao said while sitting at the dinner table, gobbling.

Sun Qing said dissatisfiedly, "What's more, in the United States, people eat pizza either with a knife and fork or with their hands. You are lucky, but you actually eat it with chopsticks, which makes me give it away in the restaurant like you." People pay attention."

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "What else is there?"

Zhou Tao said dissatisfiedly: "Foreigners' knives and forks are too laborious, and both hands are used. I just want to read a newspaper when I eat. I have to hold it with my hands, and I have to dip my hands in oil. I use chopsticks too much. Convenient!"

But then Zhou Tao laughed: "You don't know, when I ate pizza with chopsticks, I envied the foreigner next to me, and kept saying inconceivable."

"If you want to tell me, foreigners are troublesome. The food they cook is not good, and they still have a poor meal. It really annoys me."

After hearing this, everyone laughed again.

After the meal, someone naturally cleaned up the dishes. Although the three elderly people are working together to take care of Zhu Juan and only let Zhu Zhu eat the meals he prepared, Wu Jianye still hired two nannies to take care of the old man's situation. Usual chores at home.

"Linlin, I brought you this from abroad. Mozart's vinyl record. Listen to it now. What is it called prenatal education?" Sun Qing took out a few vinyl records in her bag and played them. To the side of Zhu Zhuo.

Zhu Zhu smiled and said: "Thank you, Qingqing, in fact, the family already has these, but Teacher Wu said that it is useless."

Sun Qing glanced at Wu Jianye unhappily, "Why is it useless? This is called prenatal education, which allows the baby to accept elegant art in the mother's womb from an early age."

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Look at the things you prepare for the children. Listen to Mozart in the mother's stomach, and listen to the father's father calling grandpa and father's mother calling grandma after coming out. The contrast is too great. I guess the child is in the belly. It sounds like the elegance is gone.”

Sun Qing was stunned for a moment, and then said dissatisfied: "You are sophistry."

The four chatted in the room for a while, and Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao came to the study.

"When you come back this time, where are you going to start?" Wu Jianye asked. Now Yaoguang Group's business can be said to be in full bloom, and its subsidiaries are also developing rapidly under the care of professional managers.

Zhou Tao thought for a while and said: "I want to go to Tunan Technology. During my stay in the United States, I found that the development of science and technology at home and abroad is too different. I have some ideas and want to try Tunan Technology. "

Wu Jianye asked with a smile, "What do you think?"

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "Laptop and mobile phone!"

“现在在国外，IBM在1984年2月，发布IBM 5155个人便携电脑。RB的东芝公司在1985年也生产了自己的第一款笔记本电脑T1100。”

"Didn't you always say that the development of technology in the future is always for the convenience of human beings, so I think laptops will definitely become a trend in the future."

"As for mobile phones, the same is true. When I was in the United States, Motorola had already produced a mobile phone with the model number 3200. I think this will become a trend!"

Wu Jianye smiled: "It seems that you, the United States, have really spent the past two years in vain!"

Zhou Tao glanced at Wu Jianye dissatisfied, "What are you talking about, he is very serious!"

"But have you ever thought about it? The current domestic situation is that desktop computers, let alone laptops, are not popularized. Are you rushing to make laptops?" Wu Jianye put forward his own opinion.

In Wu Jianye's opinion, it is indeed a bit ahead of schedule to make notebook computers now. After all, the popularization of desktop computers in China will have to wait until after 2000, let alone notebooks!

Zhou Tao said: "It's too late to start research now. According to my estimation, there must be a lot of troublesome things involved in the use of patents. It will take a few years for it to be put into application, and we can Use this time to develop desktop computers first, establish your own brand in China, and even after a few years in China, you will still not be able to popularize notebooks, but we can take advantage of this time to seize the foreign market, and then wait until the domestic situation. When we mature, we can turn around and rely on the brand effect that Tunan Technology has already created, I believe we can better open up the situation in China!"

It was rare for Wu Jianye to see that Zhou Tao was so interested in this matter, and said with a smile: "Well, if you want to do it, you can do it, but I have to remind you that if you want to do this industry, it's not just about The problem of a few patents, but hundreds of patents, if you don’t have your own patents, you will face many problems when you grow stronger in the future.”

Zhou Tao said with confidence: "So I want to set up a laboratory in Xiangjiang to merge with the previous Tunan Technology laboratory responsible for researching desktop computers, dedicated to researching these, but this is a laboratory that burns money!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Let's do this, the initial investment in the laboratory is 2000 million US dollars, if it is not enough, we will add more!"

Zhou Tao nodded his head as a matter of course, and said, "2000 million US dollars should be enough for a while."

Then he said: "As for mobile phones, although Tunan Technology is preparing to launch its first mobile phone in the second half of the year, as you said, the current domestic consumption level is not enough to cope with mass production, so we We think that we should place our main markets in Hong Kong, RB, and Singapore, and at the same time use the price advantage to find opportunities to enter the European market and the North American market!"

"Okay, since you already have a comprehensive plan, then Tunan Technology will be handed over to you, so that you can take out another sum of money, which can be regarded as a stake in Tunan Technology, as long as the specific amount does not exceed 30%. !” Wu Jianye laughed.

Zhou Tao is different from other people. The two of them can be said to be the closest business partners in cooperation. Now that Zhou Tao will host Tunan Technology again, it is natural for Zhou Tao to hold a part of Tunan Technology’s shares. Later, Zhou Tao felt dissatisfied psychologically, and at the same time asked Zhou Tao to pay for it himself, also in order to distinguish the friendship between the two in terms of business cooperation.

Zhou Tao nodded and had no objection to this.

But then Zhou Tao said another thing, which surprised Wu Jianye but also expected it.

"Sun Qing wants to come out and do something on her own!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Just do what you want. You are a billionaire now. There is no hesitation in giving your wife some money to do things."

Zhou Tao said with a smile: "Isn't there no direction? I just asked you, and I will invite you to buy shares by the way."

"Investing in shares?" Wu Jianye looked at Zhou Tao suspiciously, and said, "Why, I don't have enough money, I can lend you some!"

Wu Jianye believed that Zhou Tao should have run out of cash after acquiring a part of Tunan Technology's shares.

Zhou Tao said with a smile: "I have the money, but without you watching, I always feel uncertain in my heart."

"What does Sun Qing mean?" Wu Jianye asked.

Since it was Sun Qing who wanted to come out and start his own business, Wu Jianye must have asked Sun Qing for his opinion.

"Sun Qing also means the same thing."

"If you really want to do something, with the development of the country, the first thing that will change is food, clothing, housing and transportation. However, in terms of clothing, we already have Jinxiu clothing. In order to avoid cannibalism, we should give up. Then Just eat, live, and go.”

"Forget about traveling. After all, we don't have this technology in China. If we simply introduce foreign technology, it will be a very troublesome thing, and the investment will also increase several times. It is not appropriate."

China has just reached a cooperation with Volkswagen this year, and Volkswagen will combine the production lines of Audi, Jetta, Golf and other models with China to form Spring City FAW.

In fact, there is a little story here. It was not Volkswagen that China first wanted to cooperate with, but Chrysler. At that time, China wanted to introduce the Dodge 600 production line that Chrysler had already eliminated. It was raised to a high price of 1760 million US dollars, and no counter-offer was allowed.

Not only that, when the Chinese delegation went to negotiate, the arrogant Iacocca had no way at all.

After Volkswagen learned of this, it immediately took the initiative to contact the country, which is why Volkswagen has always been China's number one joint venture brand for so many years.

When the public and China reached a consensus, Iacocca immediately flew to China and proposed to sell the Dodge 600 production line to China at a symbolic price of one dollar.

It was too late for Iacocca to regret it!
