In order to live in seclusion, I tricked my roommate into falling in love

Chapter 293 Who hasn’t been a dragon slayer?
Youthfulness is not about arrogance or ostentation.

That was the infancy of a rookie who was still naive and didn't know how high the world was.

On the contrary, one must have the open-mindedness to face life with optimism and calmness after going through many hardships and making light of heavy tasks.

Still full of youthful vigor.

When others are defeated by reality, lying down in a sarcastic mood and feeling decadent, you still maintain a lively and energetic temperament.

In fact, it has nothing to do with age. Some people become disheartened at a young age.

But at this moment, everyone on the terrace had to admit that it was great to be young.

Brother Qiang is not old, he is a billionaire who is less than 50 years old, and Lao Chang is ten years older than him.

But it is said that his hair turned white overnight due to the ups and downs in his career, and he looks old.

Especially compared with young people like Zi Xiaowei, whose appearance is as bright and sunny as ever, he even looks a little old.

He spoke slowly: "Do you have any specific ideas about operating Jingxi Live?"

Zi Xiaowei nodded. "I've made it very clear just now. We started with Annie Underwear, which had an annual output value of over 2 billion yuan. This year's output value will definitely exceed 20 billion yuan. This is an industrial upgrade from graphic and text e-commerce to a full-scale shift to live streaming e-commerce. Similarly, we spun Ella Auto out of Changjiang Group. In the first two months of this year, its single model ranked first in sales among all car models. With just one series, it surpassed many brands and ranked third among all automakers. Changjiang Auto fell from first place the year before to 15th place. Last year, Ella Auto, thanks to the success of our first live streaming, only accounted for 10% of Changjiang Auto's sales."

His bony, slender fingers tapped lightly on the glass tabletop. "I'm listing these two achievements to show how they've been reborn from their bloated, old structures. Jingxi Live can be the third one. This is our positioning. We're not here for minor fixes; we're definitely going to make radical changes."

Then he raised the guillotine: "So, to avoid getting bogged down, we will stay away from Jingxi Shopping. The entire live streaming industry company should be located here, and the headquarters will only need to provide sufficient technical support and all traffic channels. We will not need all the non-technical aspects of other live streaming companies..."

The vice president of Chris Live turned pale!

Do you want to be unemployed in middle age?

Zi Xiaowei's career progress is always accompanied by such sacrifices from management.

In fact, he believes: "In the flat internet live broadcast industry, the executive management is the most useless. Sitting in office and doing nothing is the true portrayal of most management teams. The comprehensive lightweighting of Ella Automobile that I promoted for Changjiang Automobile is equivalent to a second venture. Now I can give this opportunity to Jingxi again."

It really feels like a tiger in dire straits being bullied by a dog.

No matter how you look at it, Jingxi Shopping is still a behemoth now.

The emperor's new clothes were ruthlessly stripped off in front of him by such a young man.

Even those sitting on the terrace with Brother Qiang seemed to be vaguely pointed at.

Not to mention that they are all trash, there are definitely quite a few who rest on their laurels and only care about what they can get.

I even spoke in a condescending tone, saying that it was you who came to beg me to lead the transformation, not that I had to do this business.

The people around who had been able to control their emotions before, couldn't help but whisper to each other, speaking in unhappy tones, and even deliberately let Zi Xiaowei hear.

"After making a little money, people become too arrogant. Today I have seen it..."

"Young people really dare to say anything."

"Dealing with this kind of speculative behavior is completely contrary to Jingxi's values. This is gambling with Jingxi's time-honored brand and the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of people!"

Zi Xiaowei turned a deaf ear and just looked at Brother Qiang's expression quietly.

Very interesting.

Only when one can observe calmly and calmly in such a high-end game can one see the mixed emotions of sarcasm, anger or arrogance on his face.

There is a little bit of everything, but not much, and it is very carefully controlled.

But the eyes and facial expressions do reveal something.

Zi Xiaowei likes to observe this very much.

When he first met Diane, she was a female president who was well-dressed but not very elegant.

Zi Xiaowei could easily treat her as a pretty girl, so he didn't flatter Boss Dai, who was quite respectful and flattering to everyone around him. His only weakness was that his father was controlled by her family.

Later, when I met Chang Yueling, that guy didn't have any deterrent power at all.

On the contrary, when meeting Lao Chang, facing the top figures of the top automobile companies in the country, Zi Xiaowei really felt the aura of the Lion King leading a group of hyenas.

So from the first meeting to the conversation in the stairwell after the live broadcast, he benefited a lot.

These are all advantages of having been a teacher. Even Brother Qiang was a little surprised and stared at him for several seconds: "What are you thinking about?"

Zi Xiaowei's answer surprised him even more: "I originally studied liberal arts, and was more exposed to literature, history, and philosophy. That was the only time I had the opportunity to go to Pingjing with my teacher to participate in an academic event, and I heard a joke there."

Brother Qiang, who has been the subject of countless jokes mocking him in recent years, narrowed his eyes and watched quietly.

Zi Xiaowei recounted his own experience: "My teacher's advisor was a fairly well-known figure in logicalist philosophy, an expert on Francis Bacon. Once, he gave a lecture at a university, and a group of students and scholars prepared to debate him. The university authorities, fearing chaos, asked him to recuse himself. In those years, topics involving this kind of ideological and cultural clash were very sensitive."

Brother Qiang slowly relaxed his squinted eyes, but his gaze became more focused, as if there was a real concentration.

The noise of other people talking and chatting seemed to disappear.

Of course, it is also possible that these senior executives seemed to realize that the two people didn't care about what they said at all and stopped talking in dismay.

Watch these two together.

Zi Xiaowei spoke to himself. "The large lecture hall, seating one to two thousand people, was packed. Students from various universities waited for a long time, but the expert didn't show up. The young scholars in the front row preparing for the debate were very disappointed. One student at the time stood up and asked, 'Why is this professor so fragile?' Then he asked the young scholars, 'Why are you so fragile too?' Finally, he turned to the university staff who had rushed to announce the cancellation and asked, 'Why are universities so fragile?' After asking, he left."

The people around me are simply baffling.

Look at these two men just staring at each other quietly.

It was the former dragon-slayer who spoke first, a nostalgic smile on his face: "Because a lot of jeans I wholesaled are about to arrive, and I can't waste time with these scholars discussing scriptures and doctrines."

Zi Xiaowei also laughed: "So when I graduated from university, my advisor wanted to keep me as a graduate student. By then, I was already an excellent teacher and earning quite a bit. I couldn't bear to pore over old papers, so I plunged into the education and training industry, thinking it would be prosperous forever."

Brother Qiang seemed to have forgotten that he was the founder of a listed company worth tens of billions of dollars.

He was just sharing like a senior: "This cram school training thing is really like standing up in the front row to watch a movie. Everyone stands up. It completely wipes out the opportunities for ordinary children with extraordinary talents to succeed, because money can eliminate this talent gap. It only increases the expenses of ordinary families and enriches the education and training. The approach is questionable, but it is not wrong to impose strict restrictions. It is better than doing nothing and just watching the rift widen."

Zi Xiaowei chuckled, "Old Chang doesn't have your dialectical thinking. He's had his car manufacturing qualifications thwarted by policies, so he's a bit hesitant and is taking a wait-and-see attitude towards new energy vehicle policies. But he's letting me give it a try. Losing won't affect his judgment, but winning will mean Changjiang Automobile's success."

Brother Qiang's expression was completely relaxed, and he even said jokingly: "How many years of education has he had?"

That's because, as a rich second-generation retired military officer in the 1980s, Lao Chang didn't even finish middle school, compared to Brother Qiang, a rural kid who went to a top university and still maintained the spirit of a dragon-slaying young man.

The cultural contempt is too lazy to hide.

Zi Xiaowei laughed heartily. "We have a saying in Jiangzhou: 'Killing a pig and poking its buttocks is different, each has its own way.' It's better not to look down on students who are not good at their subjects. Could you please visit this newly independent automotive R&D center? I usually stay in the machine repair shop when I have nothing to do. Although I'm studying agriculture, gardening is my main profession."

Brother Qiang has already stood up: "Let's go and take a look, haha, me too!"

This was beyond Zi Xiaowei's calculations.

But the atmosphere has completely changed.

He is not the founder of a listed company, and he is not here to discuss any big project.

Rather, it is the two generations of dragon-slaying young men who both switched from liberal arts to business, and who understand each other so well that they can see into each other's souls.

Zi Xiaowei then stood up, put the tablet computer into his backpack, and took out the thermos. He returned it to Ding Lijuan as he passed by. "I suggest you buy a few more. If Boss Dai, Boss Chang, and Boss Gao start getting on their nerves, you'll lose your job."

Ding Lijuan was startled for a moment, but took it with both hands, lowered her head and said okay.

Brother Qiang stood by and watched him flirt with the girl, with a mocking look on his face.

Zi Xiaowei went downstairs with him and explained the whole story of the sales center and the business park, and even did not hide the fact that he had tampered with the purchase funds with Changjiang Automobile.

The atmosphere became even better. Brother Qiang frowned and shook his head: "Don't do this again. You don't need to do something that will easily lead to being hunted just to save a few hundred million. It's not worth it."

Zi Xiaowei agreed: "I also had a huge psychological shock from making millions, tens of millions, and then billions. All this happened in just a few months. It was very difficult to adapt."

If you say this to other people, it's just pretentiousness.

Brother Qiang nodded and commented: "It is definitely more difficult for you to adjust your mentality than it was for me, but the situation is not as dangerous as mine."

If it can be said that Lao Chang gave Zi Xiaowei the aura of a leader.

Brother Qiang seems like a friend who is very easy to be loyal to.

Especially those who have similar cultural level and can talk to each other, but are not pedantic, are very suitable for the relaxed time of drinking and having fun together.

Just coming downstairs, there are too many security guards and assistants following around.
