Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 249 Godfather
"Not bad, not bad. The coffee in this shop tastes really good, and the decoration style is also very fashionable. Is it opened by Mr. Mu for his girlfriend?"

Lao Yu really likes the coffee from this restaurant. Over the past few years, he has developed a habit of drinking coffee.

The stimulating effect of caffeine can keep him energetic for a long time.

"If Mr. Yu likes it, you can introduce it to your friends."

"Of course, of course. I believe they will like this coffee from America."

Li Kang corrected him, "These are not American coffee beans. The climate there is not very suitable for the growth of coffee beans."

"Oh?" Yu Minhong showed a surprised expression. "The United States is so big, doesn't it produce coffee beans? But my partner said he saw a plantation there."

The partner he was referring to was naturally Xu Xiaoping who came with him.

Lao Yu is a man of deep thoughts and it seems that his three years of hard work have made him make a lot of progress.

"Mr. Mu, I heard that you studied in the United States and were a Harvard Turtle. How come you don't know about the American coffee beans?"

"Is it the same as the rumors?"

"Hey! Old Xu, how can you talk like that? You're being rude to Mr. Mu!"

Li Kang found it quite interesting to watch the two of them, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

He said very frankly: "There are always people who want to frame me. Maybe it's because they see that my New World is doing too well. My competitors are a little anxious."

Lao Yu laughed twice, "That's serious. I think the mainland market is big enough to support two companies. Lao Xu just spoke too frankly. As the boss, I have the responsibility to apologize to you."

His face looked very sincere and he was ready to bow to Li Kang to apologize.

To be honest, in Li Kang's opinion, Lao Yu's performance was really out of place.

Damn it, you are a school principal, a big boss worth tens of millions, and you bow to a young man?

There is some acting involved.

"I came here this time to talk to Mr. Mu about my views on future education. I believe Mr. Mu has also seen that as some people in our country gradually become wealthy, the previous education can no longer satisfy their children. What do you think of the future education in our country?"

Li Kang was a little proud to be asked such a question by Yu Minhong. After all, the person in front of him was a godfather-level entrepreneur, the prototype of the Chinese partner.

In fact, when Lao Yu started his business, he was very generous. The partnership system meant that he was willing to share the profits with everyone.

And at this time, Lao Yu was still quite humble and didn't act pretentiously.

The clothes he wears only cost a few dozen yuan each. He doesn't dress himself up as a rich man after making a lot of money.

The poverty in his childhood made him develop the habit of diligence and thrift.

The word "stingy" is not good for describing him. A person who has lived a wealthy life since childhood cannot understand the habits of those who have struggled in this era.

Apart from some more flamboyant bosses like Shi Yuzhu, Lao Yu did not look like a nouveau riche after being helped to rise in business.

However, Lao Yu’s New Oriental did not achieve what he had hoped and help balance the unfair distribution of educational resources.

On the contrary, because of the paid tutoring services, New Oriental suddenly fell to the bottom after the double reduction policy came into effect.

"Lao Yu, are you also interested in the tutoring market for primary and secondary schools? Currently, only a small number of people have become rich. It would be unwise to enter this industry."

"I know, but the country is destined to be rich in the future. I read your interview in the newspaper and I am very interested in the educational philosophy you talked about. To be honest, I can't accept the philosophy you mentioned. Since I was a child, I was brought up under the stick education of my mother, which made me acquire many valuable qualities. If I lose this distinctive education, my children in the future..."

"Chinese education is used to suppressing students, but in my opinion, this kind of education is very likely to hurt students psychologically and cause unnecessary pressure."

"According to what you said, we should praise students more?"

Xu Xiaoping said with some disdain.

"I am just stating my point of view. It's up to you whether you listen or not. As for what to do... you have your own hands. You don't need me to teach you."

Xu Xiaoping has a very hot temper, which is closely related to his experiences over the years.

Since childhood, Xu Xiaoping has been regarded as a child of destiny by others. His family conditions are much better than Yu Minhong's, and he even went abroad early. However, when he arrived abroad, he did not do well and once worked as a dishwasher in a fast food restaurant.

The days when he was respected in the country before can only become a memory for him.

But at this moment, his former university colleague called him and asked him to return home!
At this time, his mentality began to change, he became irritable and even a little psychologically distorted.

"Yes, yes, you should praise more. Praising a person can protect him when he is young and not destroy a young seedling."

Lao Yu added: "Incentive education is useful for ordinary students, but it may become poison for some geniuses."

Li Kang agreed with Lao Yu's analysis. This was a normal discussion for an educator. Xu Xiaoping was probably invited by Lao Yu to help him expand the market.

Later, after Xu Xiaoping left, Lao Yu still persisted in New Oriental.

The people around him all left for their own benefit, one after another, and only the founder stayed.

It’s a pity that there are no friends around him to support his dreams.

Li Kang also knows that teachers in educational training institutions are different from teachers in public schools.

They value profits more, and they have KPIs pushing them from behind.

The tuition at New Oriental’s school is quite expensive and not everyone can afford it.

These problems exist in all industries, and Li Kang has no good solution for the time being. After all, the new world also needs students to survive.

Perhaps after the Internet comes out and mobile technology matures, that will be the time for him to make his move.

Money needs to be earned and ideals need to be realized.

Now that we are back to this era, let’s do something different!
Money and other things are just a string of numbers.

Li Kang has never counted how much money is in his account.

A person like him who has no plan can actually make money. It really proves the saying:

Standing on the wind, pigs can reach the sky.

After I have money, I rarely bargain when buying things, because I know that the money in the card will never be spent.

The school earns at least a million every month, and the excess profit remains in the school's account and is used for the development of the new world.

Gradually, Lao Yu had in-depth conversations with Li Kang and was conquered by Li Kang's knowledge, vision and ideals.

There was even a moment when I wanted to merge New Oriental and New World to work together.

But Xu Xiaoping refused to do so because he and Li Kang did not get along well.

It was because Li Kang was much younger than him. When he was 20 years old, he was still studying at university, but Mu Zikang had already made a name for himself.

This made him feel very embarrassed.

Especially since he is not the one in charge of New Oriental, and there is Yu Minhong above him.

So Yu Minhong could only swallow this idea in her stomach, but she liked Li Kang very much.

"Thank you Mr. Mu for chatting with me today. It has broadened my horizons. Let us work together for the development of education in our country in the future."

"Lao Yu, you are still the main force! I just want to make some money in this industry first. After accumulating capital, I want to try other industries. Then I will let you be the leader of the education industry."

Li Kang generously stated that he would definitely nominate him as the leader of the alliance in the future.

After seeing the two off, Shu Jie returned to the car to wait for Li Kang.

Fang Linxue hugged him gently from behind, "Are you free? My brother is getting married, do you want to come?"
