Chapter 391: Plummeting
In a box in the Dejuquan Hotel on the bank of the fifth arch on Qianmen Street in Beijing, a middle-aged woman sits on the main seat. A young and handsome man sat beside her, talking and laughing with her.
"The time is almost up, why hasn't Li Yan arrived yet?" The handsome man subconsciously looked down at the watch on his wrist, and muttered with some dissatisfaction.
The woman sighed softly and said, "Li Yan shouldn't be late, Hanhai, you have to hone your temperament." ”
"Sister, I just think Li Yan and they don't take our Jinjia shares too seriously, right? I made an appointment to come out to meet, and let us wait for them?" Zhang Hanhai frowned and snorted, then thought about it and said to Tao Huabi beside him: "Li Yan won't come, right?"
Tao Huabi smiled slightly, shook her head and said categorically: "No, such a big temptation of interests." I don't believe that Li Yan can let go, even if he can let go, I believe that those people around him will push him forward. Who can resist the temptation in the face of huge interests?"
That is, as soon as Tao Huabi's voice fell, there was an aggressive knock on the door outside the room.
"Please come in. Tao Huabi greeted.
Then after the door was slowly pushed open, Li Yan walked into the box. Behind Li Yan were Bi Peilin, Wu Zhilin and Dao Jianxin.
After some politeness, everyone sat down.
At this time, Zhang Hanhai naturally understood who was in charge, even though he had something to say, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
"Do you have any questions about the preliminary agreement, Li Yan?" Tao Huabi asked Li Yan.
Li Yan shook his head, and was just about to reconfirm Tao Huabi in a loud voice. The waiters outside the door have successively put exquisite dishes on the table.
Tao Huabi beckoned everyone to drink wine, eat vegetables and eat roast duck, but she suppressed the words that Li Yan had been holding in her mouth.
Li Yan wanted to mention the agreement several times, but Tao Huabi didn't seem to know about it. After a few words of concern for Li Yan, he suddenly asked Li Yan, "I recently found out that the New York Times published a report. The report is the result of a joint study by scholars from Stanford University, Harvard University, and the National Census Bureau. ”
I was going to talk about the agreement, but why did I suddenly talk about what kind of report?
Li Yan had this question in his heart, and after blinking subconsciously, he heard Tao Huabi smile at Li Yan and say: In fact, the main content of the research report is to explain a problem, a report that even if you are born in a wealthy white family, you are still likely to fall to the bottom of society. ”
Li Yan subconsciously froze for a moment, then tilted his head and looked at the few people beside him. The eyes of the inquiry seemed to be particularly trying to figure out what the hell Tao Huabi of Jinjia shares was going to do.
"Li Yan, do you know what the probability of falling to the bottom of society is?"
"The research data I have obtained shows that it is 20 percent! As the old saying goes, our country is rich for no more than three generations. But there is also a saying in society: "Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes." Li Yan, what is the truth?" After Tao Huabi finished saying this, he didn't seem to want to hear the answer, but immediately said to Li Yan: "Li Yan, how do you say that you can let your descendants avoid falling into the bottom of society, or don't say that there will be "a tiger gives birth to a dog son", "one generation is not as good as the next"?"
"That, Mr. Tao, you're joking. We, "ordinary people have been thinking about how to break through their own class barriers, just hoping that the poor can also produce noble sons." Your question is a bit high-end beyond my comprehension. ”
Tao Huabi nodded and continued: "Those children who occupy good educational resources and good connections, and are in the upper class, will fall to the bottom?!"
Could it be that the phenomenon of "it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family" that we have been worried about has suddenly become so severe that even "it is difficult for the nobles to produce a noble son"?
After asking this question, Tao Huabi didn't seem to care much about the result. just said: "The Jia Mansion in "Dream of Red Mansions" has many talented and beautiful people, ranking among the emperor's relatives and relatives, but they still can't escape the fate of decline. There are many people who sigh for this, and many people don't understand, however, Liu Xianglian's words have solved the mystery in the Dream of Red Mansions, and I remember someone said: "Jiafu is clean except for the two stone lions, but I'm afraid that even the cats and dogs are not clean." ”
Wu Zhilin seemed to agree with the other party's point of view, and said lightly: "Yes, I have been in this kind of drunken place for a long time, looking for flowers and asking willows, Qingqing and me, and there is no good family style as support, how can such a family be undefeated?"
Bi Peilin suddenly said at this time: "The fall of a family from the wealthy class is not only the family's own problem, sometimes it is inseparable from the general trend of social development, after all, many wealthy families have fallen to the bottom all of a sudden when the society is changing." ”
As the eldest lady of the Bi family in the Demon Capital, it seems that there is nothing strange to understand these truths.
Having said that, although many problems are inevitable in the social environment, those families who can always remain in the wealthy class have begun to think about how to maintain the longevity of the family when the family is established.
As for the hand that is rich but not more than three generations, is "rich but not three generations" really a "curse"?
Tao Huabi said while interpreting: "The Rockefeller family in the United States is an example. At that time, when the family was founded, Rockefeller was the first billionaire in the United States. It stands to reason that many people should covet his wealth, and it may not be long before the family will make a fuss about who will inherit the inheritance. Do you want to express anything?"
The Rockefeller family in the United States is a case in point. At that time, when the family was founded, Rockefeller was the first billionaire in the United States. It stands to reason that many people should covet his wealth, and it may not be long before the family will make a fuss about who will inherit the inheritance.
