Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 1261 What are you needed for?

"Although our alumni association is newly established, our combined strength is already no less than that of any other organization. In the future, we will surpass them and become the most successful business organization in the country. At that time, being a member of it will naturally bring enormous benefits."

"Little Qin can also get into the system, this is a rare opportunity! Old Wang is unusually concerned about young people. Young man, I see you three are together, you know each other quite well, as friends, why don't you persuade her? Don't miss this chance!"

Xiao Wei said, "I'm sorry, I have no interest in any class reunions, and we don't deal with any state-owned enterprises, so we don't need any approvals or signatures. My sister doesn't need anyone's care or attention. We're here to learn. We're all classmates, so I won't say anything more. Take care of yourselves, okay?"

"This young man has a bit of a temper; he's really young and impetuous. Don't be so quick to object; you guys still don't understand this society very well."

"Yes, having someone to take care of you will save you a lot of trouble. You'll see when your business grows bigger."

"You still lack experience. How can you do business in this country without dealing with state-owned enterprises? We are a socialist country, and all resources belong to the state. State-owned enterprises are the ones who control and use these resources. Young man, you can't speak too confidently. If you don't understand now, it just means your business is still too small and your vision is too limited."

"Getting into the system isn't easy these days. Young man, you might not realize it if you haven't been in contact with people. Ask around how many unemployed people there are. It's not like a few years ago. Opportunities are right in front of you now, and you don't even know it. Go back and ask your parents, ask around."

Chen Hui said, "I don't want to say anything else. You'd better not think about anything that's impossible, understand? We have no interest in the system, and we have no interest in your resource approvals."

If you had the energy to put it into the right thing, making your company bigger and stronger would be a real achievement. Come on, tell me, fellow CEOs, how much do your companies earn in a year? Are there any that don't lose money?

An awkward silence fell over the room. Qin Xuemei chuckled and pulled Xiao Wei behind her back.

"What do you mean by that? Achievements can't be judged solely by money. We are cadres within the system; we need to consider politics and influence. The country is undergoing sweeping reforms, and growing pains are inevitable. Temporary gains or losses during this process of change don't mean anything."

Furthermore, young man, you still don't understand what the system is. What you're saying are just external appearances. You can't even imagine the benefits of being part of the system. Whether a company makes money or not is none of the government's business to worry about or regulate.

Chen Hui turned to the person who spoke: "Then what are you all for? You sit in these positions just to approve documents and sign papers? The workers' lives and the company's lives have nothing to do with you? What do you call that? Parasites? Occupying positions without doing any work? Isn't the overall decline of state-owned enterprises due to too many people like you?"

"How can you talk like that? Any one of us here is at the level of a mayor or party secretary. Please show some respect." Mr. Wang slammed his hand on the table.

Chen Hui said, "Now that government and business are separated, you won't be able to gloat for long. What's there to be so proud of? Even if people like you become mayor or party secretary, it will be a tragedy for that city. A bunch of old men trying to take advantage of my sister, trying to seduce her with that little bit of power, how can you be so shameless?"

"What do you mean by becoming the largest commercial organization in the country in the future? What can you do besides taking advantage of the country and engaging in corruption? Don't you know your place? Why should I respect you? Tell me, what makes you worthy of my respect? Why don't you go back and try to take advantage of your daughter?"

Xiao Wei said, "Alright, what's the point of talking to them about this? It's a waste of breath."

Enraged, General Manager Wang pointed at Chen Hui and said, "You should be glad your little company isn't with me. You're completely lawless."

Chen Hui laughed and said, "You should be glad. Get lost and stay away from us. Just looking at you is incredibly annoying. Disgusting."

Xiao Wei took out his yearbook from his bag and flipped through it. The yearbook contained brief introductions and contact information for everyone.

"Come on, which one is you? Let me see." Xiao Wei opened the yearbook and placed it on the table, but he couldn't match any of the names to his classmates.

Someone nearby tried to smooth things over: "Come on, class is starting. What's the point of arguing with a few ignorant kids?"

The group went back to the front of the classroom, and Qin Xuemei asked Xiaowei, "Are you alright?"

Xiao Wei said, "It's okay."

Chen Hui said, "This isn't over. They're coming openly like this, they're really not taking us seriously. Once we find out where this guy surnamed Wang and that guy surnamed Qi are from, I'm going to report them."

Qin Xuemei said, "Forget it, I can't come anymore. Besides, they didn't do anything to me."

Chen Hui said, "You don't need to worry about this, sister."

During the rest of the class, Mr. Wang kept a gloomy face, but he didn't come over again to make a fool of himself.

What Xiao Wei and the others didn't know was that this Mr. Wang and his group later went to the school and demanded that Xiao Wei and the other two be expelled. However, the school ignored them. This was Kyoto, this was Renmin University. These people who were used to bullying others in the local area were no different from ordinary students here.

Chen Hui kept his word. After class, he had someone check the companies where General Manager Wang and General Manager Qi worked, and then he called them. Xiao Wei didn't interfere. It wasn't a big deal.

When Xiaowei, Chen Hui, Qin Xuemei, and Xiuer returned to the courtyard, Wang Jiwei's younger brother had already arrived with his three-year-old daughter.

The little girl is quite sturdy, probably because she grew up in the countryside. Her cheeks are slightly red from the wind, and she has her hair tied up in a pigtail.

When everyone came in, she was having a great time playing with Xiao Xiao Hui in the yard. She was basically the one leading Xiao Xiao Hui in playing. In terms of playfulness (mischief), Xiao Xiao Hui, who grew up in the city, was no match for this little girl.

The little girl was startled when she saw so many people coming in. She was a little scared, so she stood up, put her hands behind her back, and stared at them. When she saw Wang Jiwei, her eyes lit up: "Dad." But she was a little hesitant to come closer.

This is another difference between rural and urban children; urban children tend to have a broader perspective. This is determined by their environment.

Xiao Hui had already dropped the little stick he was holding and ran over, but the little girl was still standing there without moving.

Wang Jiwei came over, picked up the little girl, and kissed her. The little girl then smiled, hugged Wang Jiwei's neck, and buried her face in his shoulder, saying, "Daddy."

Wang Jiwei carried the little girl to Qin Xuemei and said, "Call her Auntie."

Qin Xuemei looked the little girl over and said, "Call her 'Mom,' call her 'Mama.' What's her name?"

Wang Jiwei said, "She was named Wang Yan'er. It is said that on the day she was born, there were swallows all over the front of the house, so my dad gave her that name."
