Chapter 48: Conversation
The old man was silent, just looked at Su Rui with a strange gaze.
Between the two wealthy families in Tongzhou, the Li family and the Bai family, there have always been good people speculating and figuring out who is stronger and who can suppress whom.
The dispute between the giants has always been the focus of the public, as can be seen from the incident between Bai Yanyun and Li Ruobing tonight.
And the question of who is stronger between the Bai family and the Li family, no matter who they are, they can't give a standard answer.
Because the Bai family is not an aristocrat in the traditional sense, the Bai family's industry in Tongzhou is not as much as the Li family, and the scope is so wide, and from the perspective of financial resources, the Bai family is inferior to the Li family.
The Li family started from Li Ruobing's grandfather's generation, and later grew by leaps and bounds, becoming among the ranks of the wealthy, even in several other provinces, there are chain industries all over the world, it can be said that the Li family is a real giant businessman.
If it is just a simple comparison of wealth, the Bai family will be defeated.
But as Su Rui said before, when a person's status reaches a certain height, the role that money can play is often very limited.
Capital always serves power.
The reason why the Bai family can become one of the top wealthy families in Tongzhou with less than one percent of the Li family's financial resources is that Bai Yanyun's grandfather has a strong political background, and before retiring, he once achieved the position of deputy provincial level, which was glorious for a while, opened up a lot of doors for his descendants, and also established the unshakable position of the Bai family in Tongzhou!
Even if he later retired honorably, the descendants of the Bai family all sat in key positions in Tongzhou or other cities.
It can be said that a strong official background is the most important means for the Bai family to settle down.
The poor do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials.
This is a long-standing and very appropriate saying, and it is impossible for Su Rui not to understand.
"Now in Tongzhou City, the two wealthy Li family and the Bai family, do you think that if you rely on the Li family, you don't need to give face to the Bai family?" Young man, you can't help but look a little too superficial...... The old man said with a smile: "The Li family and the Bai family seem to be equal, but in fact they are not balanced...... The struggle between businessmen and political families will always end with the defeat of the former, otherwise why do you think the Li family has such huge financial resources in Tongzhou, but they have to tolerate the Bai family everywhere?"
"The old gentleman is very familiar with the situation in Tongzhou......" Su Rui smiled and looked at the inconspicuous old man.
In this life, Su Rui and the other party did not know each other.
But Su Rui knew very well what the appearance of the other party meant.
"Oh...... Hehe, I've heard people talk about it occasionally......" When the old man heard Su Rui's words, he immediately reacted that he seemed to be talking about a little sensitive topic with the young man he didn't know in front of him.
The old man sighed in his heart, I don't know why, after listening to the piano music played by Su Rui, he always had an unconsciously urge to get close to him, and he accidentally talked too much.
"The Bai family is going downhill. Su Rui didn't have anything unusual on the surface, as if he said casually.
"Oh, there are three members of the Bai family who are members of the Standing Committee of the Tongzhou Municipal Party Committee, and one is the second-in-command of the neighboring city, and there are dozens of members in positions such as bureau chief and deputy bureau, no matter from which point of view, the Bai family is becoming more and more prosperous, how can it be said that it is going downhill?"
Su Rui squinted and smiled.
The reason why he quietly came to the corner was to get close to this old man, and he had played all the world's famous songs before, first, to fight back against Bai Yanyun, and second, to attract the attention of this old man.
This old man's name is Tung Chee-hwa, don't look at him dressed ordinarily, he looks like an ordinary little old man, but his real identity is very unusual.
Because the Bai family couldn't see through the political situation in China at all, before the old man of the Bai family retired, he tried his best to help his descendants on the throne, he thought that this was an official road for his descendants, but this was precisely the Bai family's way of death. Su Rui said succinctly: "The current political situation at the top level is that family politics and dictatorship will be absolutely eliminated! And the old man of the Bai family has been an official in the province for one term, and he is eager to turn his family dogs into police dogs, and this practice will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the upper class." ”
"If the old man of the Bai family is still in office, then the upper echelons may be involved in many reasons and obstacles, and they will not do anything to the Bai family;
Su Rui paused, and then added, "By the way, there is one more ...... The members of the Bai family have been very arrogant in Tongzhou in recent years, and there are many projects that are publicly bidden, but they have all been oppressed by the Bai family with their backgrounds and robbed of them, hehe...... They can't restrain their descendants, and let the people below take advantage of the Bai family's power and fake tigers, which in the eyes of the upper echelons, is the collusion between officials and businessmen, and is the umbrella of the underworld forces. ”
Dong Chee-hwa held the porcelain cup with tea foam floating in his hand, and looked at Su Rui with some surprise.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was too young, he would really think that this was a member of a senior leadership team in another province.
To be able to see through the surface and see the situation so thoroughly, this insight is really terrifying!
"I dare to say that in less than a year, the Bai family will fall!" Su Rui's drunken eyes were hazy, as if he was joking, "Tell me, such a dying family, do I need to be afraid of him?"
"Hehe, interesting! Interesting!" Dong Chee-hwa looked at Su Rui, as if he had discovered a piece of talent: "It's a pity that people like you go into business." ”
"Then you say, what should I do?" Su Rui asked with a smile.
"Go to politics. Dong Chee-hwa said with a smile.
Su Rui raised his eyebrows, slowly drank the red wine in the wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile: "Forget it...... Participating in politics, I can only face the bitter face of some old men every day, and now, as soon as I open my eyes, I can see the intimate secretary and the beautiful president, which is pleasing to the eye, in comparison, the current life makes me more comfortable. ”
Dong Chee-hwa was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Now the pursuit of young people is different from that of us old men. ”
Ding dong.
At this moment, Su Rui's mobile phone lit up.
"I'm sorry, I'm leaving. Su Rui glanced at the phone screen and said with a smile.
"Please. Tung Chee-hwa waved his hand.
Su Rui got up and left.
Thirty seconds later, Hu Yuhua, who had changed into a low-key Tang suit, walked over, with a very respectful attitude, and asked Tung Chee-hwa: "Old leader, are you looking for me?"
"That Su Rui, are you familiar with him?" Dong Chee-hwa's temperament at this time has undergone earth-shaking changes, and his face is not angry and arrogant.
"I heard that it is the president of Li Ruobing's branch, the specific information is not clear, leader, are you interested in him? Why don't I investigate him?" Hu Yuhua asked cautiously.
Dong Chee-hwa squinted at the back of Su Rui, who was sitting with Li Ruobing under the auction seat, thought for a moment, and shook his head silently.
"Forget it, a very insightful young man
