Chapter 468: Millennium Academy
The winter in London is not too cold, although it is located in a high latitude, but the influence of the marine climate is very obvious, the weather is not very cold, there is no severe cold in winter, and there is no heat in summer is the biggest feature of London's climate.
This is the second time Huang Peipei has gone abroad in her life, both times she came out with Shen Hui, the first time was in a hurry, because her father had an accident and hurried back from the United States, this is the second time and the first time she came to London.
It was supposed to be the honeymoon period, but it turned out to be an official visit by Boss Shen.
Huang Peipei can see it, if you have time, you can follow it, if you don't have time to see anything in the hotel, there is nothing to see in the winter in the northern hemisphere, although the weather is not too cold, but after all, it is not a warm winter, and I still don't want to go out.
After visiting the financial regulator and several nobles, Shen Hui received an invitation from the Prime Minister's Office.
After meeting the president once, I was even less excited to see the prime minister again.
The prime minister is very down-to-earth, not only discussed finance and economics with Boss Shen, but also said a lot of interesting stories and experiences when he visited China, acting like a citizen, but the appearance of politicians is always changeable, just don't take it seriously.
Some of the prime minister's views made Shen Hui suspicious.
Looking back and analyzing with the think tank, Wei Zongru felt that it was related to HSBC, and contacted the authorities and financial regulatory departments, and sure enough, he found the mystery and did not refuse, which shows that there is room for negotiation.
"For the exchange of interests, HSBC can be dominated by Xinghai, but there are many conditions to be met. ”
Wei Zongru said: "The problems of industrial investment and employment are easy to say, and there are not many problems in cooperation in other fields, but some problems involving Hong Kong Island and the country are not something that we can solve. ”
Shen Hui leaned back: "Then that's it, there is less than a week to celebrate the New Year, since you have come to London, let's take a good turn, go back to Shanghai the day after tomorrow, if you have friends, you can visit friends, and if you have a lover, hurry up and pay the public grain!"
Lao Wei is speechless, is this talking about human words?
There are plenty of great places to visit in Europe, but this is not the time to visit.
In the next two days, Shen Hui didn't go anywhere, didn't visit the authorities and regulators, didn't visit the industry bigwigs, and didn't ask Liu Fang, and if he couldn't do that with his family, he took Huang Peipei to visit two universities.
One Oxford, one Cambridge.
They are all the world's most cutting-edge universities.
Missing the university in this life has always been the biggest regret in Boss Shen's heart.
Some people on the Internet scolded him for being uneducated, although he didn't care much, but he didn't experience the indispensable experience of going to high school and college like everyone else, which undoubtedly made his life unsatisfactory, so everywhere he went, he had to look at the local well-known universities.
Of course, the premise is that you will only be interested if you have his eyes.
If it's like those universities in Ningxi, there's no interest.
The University of Oxford is different from other universities, the city and the university are integrated, the streets pass through the campus, not only there are no gates and walls, but also there is no official signage, if it is not accompanied by someone, if it is not specially visited, if you do not pay careful attention, you would not have thought that this is the world's top first-class university, Oxford University.
Accompanied by the principal of Hamilton, Boss Shen and his wife visited the Oxford University History Museum, museums, libraries, as well as Oxford's courtyards, squares, churches and theaters and other buildings.
During this period, I also met many domestic students, but unfortunately they didn't feel him well.
There are many domestic entrepreneurs who see the prime minister, and there are also many people who come to visit Oxford.
Nothing curious.
In the school history museum, when Shen Hui asked Principal Hamilton about the reason for Oxford's thousand-year-old heritage, the old man didn't speak, and took him outside, only to point to the ancient buildings on campus and say: "This is the foundation of Oxford's thousand-year-old heritage." ”
Poor Shen Hui is young and knowledgeable, and his cultural accumulation is indeed not enough, so he didn't understand it for a while, so he didn't ask again, until he was on the way back to London by car, and then he discussed with Huang Peipei: "What does the old man mean, do you understand?"
Huang Peipei was surprised: "Don't you understand?"
Shen Hui nodded, not blushing.
There are no outsiders, what blushing.
Huang Peipei said: "History, Oxford has been inherited for thousands of years, it is one of the oldest universities, except for the University of Bologna in Italy, the world is the longest school in Oxford, thousands of years of school history, this should be regarded as the most precious thing in Oxford." ”
Shen Hui disagreed: "If history is to be useful, then China can beat the whole world, ancient is not capital, I haven't heard of the University of Bologna, this doesn't just show that history is a fart." ”
Huang Peipei said: "Although history is not the main reason for Oxford's inheritance of thousands of years, but it is also an important factor, to a certain extent, history and culture are inseparable, can be inherited for thousands of years, there must be a deep cultural accumulation in it, this cannot be denied, Oxford can inherit a thousand years There must be other important factors, but history and culture should be one of the most important factors, and it is impossible for Principal Hamilton to tell you three days and three nights, and the only thing that can be said is only the history of Oxford." ”
All right!
Shen Hui reluctantly accepted this statement.
I visited Harvard, MIT, and Oxford, three top universities, and I was not intrigued.
It's not easy to compare with domestic universities, but there are many shining points.
There is also a lot to learn.
In the evening, Boss Shen was invited to attend a charity party and spent 10 million to take a picture of the autumn scenery of the Thames River that is said to have been hand-painted by Mr. Prime Minister, which won the favor and friendship of Mr. Prime Minister, and praised Boss Shen as a caring young entrepreneur!
The next day, Shen Hui visited Cambridge University.
The University of Cambridge, like the University of Oxford, is the world's top university, and it is also one of the two world-class universities in the United Kingdom, which is slightly inferior to Oxford, and it is said that it has some origins with Oxford, in order to avoid fighting, a group of teachers who escaped from Oxford were founded in Cambridge, and the two families do not know if they are dirty, but Cambridge also has a history of nearly a thousand years.
It's the same antique.
Counting the cattle people who came out of Cambridge, you can experience the cattle fork of Cambridge.
Newton, Kelvin, Hawking, Darwin, Marshall, Turing, Wiles, Hua Luogeng and other scientific giants, as well as Cromwell, Nehru, *** and other political figures, as well as the first British Prime Minister Robert Walbo, including fifteen British prime ministers, all came out of Cambridge.
It's too.
After visiting Cambridge, Shen Hui's original intention of starting a university became active again, and he discussed the feasibility with Huang Peipei on the plane back to Shanghai, but unfortunately his daughter-in-law couldn't give her any advice.
If you want to toss, you can toss it.
This is Huang Peipei's attitude towards Boss Shen.
If you are crazy, I will accompany you to be crazy, and it is good to go back to Qinghe to live a down-to-earth life when you are poor.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the Shanghai market already has a strong New Year's flavor.
The school was closed early, Huang Peipei was busy distributing New Year's benefits to the staff around her, and Shen Hui went to the company, led a meeting, explained the work after the New Year, and gave all employees a greeting for the early years.
Xinghai investment does not have a holiday during the New Year, because the New Year in Europe, America, Japan and other countries has passed early, Xinghai can only go to work, last year because the business volume is not too large, it stopped for a few days to rest, today the volume is large, the business is more, there is no way to stop, so you can only let the employees work overtime, fortunately, Boss Shen is used to being generous, and the Spring Festival will leave overtime after the holiday, and each person will have 100,000 overtime pay.
There are still a lot of people who are willing to work overtime, after all, 100,000 overtime pay is not small.
The key is that it's not interesting to go back for the New Year, and I was forced to marry by my parents, so it's good to work overtime.
When he was about to get off work at noon, Jiang Youlan came to the chairman's office.
"Mr. Shen, I will report to you a private matter. ”
Jiang Youlan sat down opposite, her face peachy.
Shen Hui was in a rare good mood, so he asked with a smile: "Let me guess, it won't be to have a child, right?"
Jiang Youlan's face darkened, and she said depressedly: "I'm going to get married after the Spring Festival." ”
"What a good thing!"
Shen Hui almost clapped his hands and said, " Thirty-one-year-old people, it is time to get married, you also urge Yang Shan, she is the same age as you, you women don't marry out for a day, I worry about you, don't think I'm idle to eat radishes and worry about it, although there are now a considerable number of women who have a tendency to celibacy, but only a small number, there is an argument on the Internet, really good women marry themselves early, who will leave themselves, the rest are problematic, although biased, but not unreasonable, no matter how much you flaunt freedom, even if you analyze happiness out of a thousand answers, women have to have a family life to be perfect, and the rest of their time is long, Concepts and thoughts are likely to cause a little problem, if you really don't want to get married, it's okay, I'm afraid to pick and choose, so seeing that you don't get married one by one, I'm anxious for you!"
Jiang Youlan's face was constipated.
What does this make people say?
To tell the truth, that is, eat radishes and worry about it.
However, he is the boss.
is so sincere and sincere about the lifelong affairs of his subordinates, and what he said is somewhat reasonable, even if he thinks that Boss Shen cares a little too much, he can only pinch his nose to accept it, so it makes people depressed.
Shen Hui asked again, "When are you going to get married?"
Jiang Youlan said: "The plan is mid-March. ”
Shen Hui leaned back and asked, "Has the house been cleaned up?"
Jiang Youlan said: "Ready, Yu Zhidong mortgaged a house and has finished renovating, but it feels a little annoying to repay a loan of 20,000 yuan a month. ”
Shen Hui changed his mind, don't make a fuss at the end, but he couldn't say this, so he asked, "Is the money enough?"
Jiang Youlan said: "I made up three million, it's still a little close, he went to find a way." ”
Shen Hui nodded: "If it's not enough, tell me!"
Jiang Youlan was quite happy and happy, although she didn't plan to ask Boss Shen to borrow money.
But Boss Shen's attitude still has to be obtained.
