On the 10th of September, the Xinhua supermarket in the Wanfu Building finally reopened, on the outside of the building in front of the two entrances of the supermarket, there were dense red banners, which were all blessings from some companies and factories in Sizhen County and government agencies, and there were many flower baskets in front of the door on the ruins of the old county party committee and county government, and a stage was set up, and the county troupe was preparing to perform.

Zhu Feiya stood at the door with a smile on her face, greeting the guests who came to congratulate one by one. At this time, her heart was filled with a feeling called success. She never imagined that she would one day stand in a leadership position.

Since she came to Sizhen County Xinhua Supermarket as the manager for less than a month, she clearly knows that Xinhua Supermarket's connections in Sizhen County are really too strong, whether it is industrial and commercial taxation, or other government agencies are very concerned. Wherever she goes, as long as she is known as the manager of Xinhua Supermarket, even if the other party is the head of a game, she will be polite.

At nine o'clock, firecrackers rang out, gongs and drums were noisy, and the reopening ceremony of Xinhua Supermarket officially began.

But Zhou Yi was not here on this day, because the third year of junior high school had already started, and Zhou Yi was training hard in Hongta Middle School for the county-wide basketball friendly game held in the county. As soon as the school started, the physical education teacher He Likui announced the news and selected the three age students in the school at the same time. Zhou Yi in the first class of the second year of junior high school was naturally selected, and Zhou Jian, who was in the same class as Zhou Yi, was also selected. After a week of selection, He Likui selected 12 boys who were very passable to play in Hongta Middle School. And Zhou Yi is the shortest, only about 1.66 meters, while almost all other boys are above 1.75 meters tall.

But height is not a problem, Zhou Yi still controls the offensive power of the whole team, because the twelve people are satisfied with He Likui's ball control skills alone. While receiving training from He Likui, Zhou Yi also fought bulls with eleven other people from time to time, and the result can be imagined, Zhou Yi abused them all.

From the beginning of September to the National Day, the county's middle school basketball friendly game finally began. The competition is divided into high school group and junior high school group, and the venue of the junior high school group is the most complete construction of Sizhen County Middle School (junior high school) in the county, and the competition time is every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon. The venue for the high school group is the No. 1 Middle School (high school) in Sizhen County, the highest school in the school.

The rules of the game are to draw lots and divide the groups, and the top two teams in the group will play against each other one by one, and the top two players will play in the next round of the competition. There are a total of 16 townships in the county, with 28 junior high schools and 19 high schools. Just like Hongta Middle School, there is a vocational high school, but there are only two classes, which usually don't attract much attention. But the teacher in charge of Hongta Middle School's vocational high school this time is Zhu Jiucai, another physical education teacher from Hongta Middle School, because including the teachers and students of Hongta Middle School, believe that the vocational high school basketball team of Hongta Middle School is looking for abuse.

He Likui went to the county to draw lots during the National Day and drew to Group D, while the other teams in Group D were Sizhen County Middle School, Hongta Middle School, Sizhen County No. 3 Middle School Junior High School, Caomiao Middle School, Changgou Middle School, Chonggang Middle School and Yang Concentration School. According to He Likui's analysis, the strength of those township middle schools is not strong, only Sizhen County Middle School and No. 3 Middle School are relatively strong, so the hope of Hongta Middle School is still good, but it is not optimistic, after all, in the whole team, there are only two classmates who play decently, one is Zhou Yi, and the other is a repeat student named Fang Kai who is now studying in the fifth class of junior high school.

On Monday afternoon, they had a game against Chonggang Middle School on Monday, and after school at noon, they took the school's rented car to the county seat. accompanied by some female cheerleaders selected by Hongta Middle School, the purpose of which was to cheer for this group of team members, and Zhao Haiyun and Li Xiaojuan in Zhou Yi's class were among them.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, they entered the basketball court of Sizhen Middle School on Monday. Sizhen County Middle School has six cement basketball floors, and the backboards are tempered glass. Although this kind of equipment is not good in Zhou Yi's eyes, it is the only one in Sizhen County, and even the No. 1 Middle School in Sizhen County, because the construction is not complete, there are only four basketball courts.

There will be four games here at the same time today, but the others are not what Zhou Yi cares about, he cares about the strength of his opponent Chonggang Middle School. Zhou Yi and his teammates were shooting and running baskets on the basketball court at will, and when they saw Chonggang Middle School entering the court, they all slowed down and turned their heads to look at the opponents they were about to face.

Zhou Yi glanced at it a few times and found that the other party's height was not too prominent, and he could only say that he was on the same level as Hongta Middle School. And the basketball players of Chonggang Middle School also looked at Zhou Yi and them as they walked in.

At half past two, the first players on both sides began to play, Fang Kai was the one who jumped the ball from Hongta Middle School, and the player from Chonggang Middle School who jumped the ball was a little taller than Fang Kai, but his body was relatively thin. As soon as the whistle blew, Fang Kai jumped up vigorously, and Zhou Yi was also preparing to go up and steal if Fang Kai failed to jump the ball. However, Fang Kai is still a veteran in the end, and he still jumped to win against his thin opponent.

Seeing Zhou Yi receive the ball, the players from Hongta Middle School flocked to the frame of Chonggang Middle School like a tide, and the dozen or so girls standing on the sidelines cheered loudly when they saw Fang Kai jump and win the ball.

Chonggang Middle School was not slow to react, and when Zhou Yi took the ball to the opponent's three-point line, the opponent was completely in position. The opponent who defended Zhou Yi was much taller than Zhou Yi, probably more than 1.7 meters. Therefore, in the face of Zhou Yi, he seemed very relaxed.

Zhou Yi didn't choose to play by himself, he took the ball to the right side around forty-five degrees, and when he saw that Fang Kai was about to stop, he passed the basketball to Fang Kai.

Fang Kai took the ball, squeezed the opponent with his back, and found that the opponent's strength was not good, so he gradually dribbled and leaned inside. The thin big man on the other side obviously didn't have the strength to do it, Fang Kai kept turning his back and hitting in, but he kept retreating, seeing that the time was ripe, Fang Kai turned around, wiped it from the bottom line, raised his hand and wiped the basketball into it.

When Zhou Yi was running back, he high-fived Fang Kai who was passing by him, and then focused on guarding against the opponent's defenders.

The opponent's defender's possession was also not bad, although Zhou Yi saw that he was full of loopholes, but he did not rashly make a steal, but just blocked the opponent's breakthrough route. The defender of Chonggang Middle School saw that he couldn't break through Zhou Yi, so he had to choose to pass the ball to the big man on his side.

The big man from Chonggang Middle School had already exposed his strength just now, so when he got the ball, he couldn't push Fang Kai behind him, so he had to turn around and shoot, and the basketball bounced back from the hoop naughtily and fell into Zhou Jian's hands. Zhou Jian stabilized the rebound, handed it to Zhou Yi, who ran over to pick it up, and ran forward.

Zhou Yi took the ball to the front court, concocted it in the same way, and passed the ball to Fang Kai again, but this time the other party actually knew that the bag was clamped, which surprised Zhou Yi a lot. Fang Kai saw that the defender defending Zhou Yi was caught up, and there was no room for movement, so he held the basketball high and passed it to the unguarded Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi did not shirk, took the ball and rushed to the opponent's guard before he rushed over, and threw it easily. The basketball made a wonderful arc and landed comfortably in the hoop.

Chonggang Middle School obviously didn't have a player with outstanding ability, so they played a mess, everyone got the ball and threw it, unless there was no good opportunity to pass it to teammates. The result can be imagined, Hongta Middle School won the first game by a big score and made a good start.

On the other three venues, the fight is a little more intense, because there is no specific tactic, and the combat effectiveness of both sides is very close, so you throw me back and forth one by one, and the scene is very spectacular, but it is more scattered.

Zhou Yi didn't deliberately pay attention to the situation off the court during the game, and just after the game, Zhou Yi seemed to see a very familiar figure out of the basketball court. Zhou Yi looked at him suspiciously, because it was too vague, so he didn't remember who it was for a while. It wasn't until on the way back, after talking with Zhao Haiyun, that he knew that it was Zhao Haiting, who had studied in the first year of high school in Sizhen County.

In fact, Sizhen County No. 1 Middle School also has a game today, but she misses Zhou Yi very much, and after learning that Zhou Yi will come to the county to participate in the competition, she did not go to watch her school's competition, but secretly went to Sizhen County Middle School to watch Zhou Yi's game.

On Wednesday, Hongta Middle School played against Yang Concentration School, which was good, but with Zhou Yi's crazy performance of 40 points, Hongta Middle School still defeated its opponent and won the second game. Sizhen County Middle School has also defeated Caomiao Middle School and No. 3 Middle School.

And on Friday, Hongta Middle School will have a much better strength against Sizhen County No. 3 Middle School. This game was a bit tortuous, although the opponent couldn't defend Zhou Yi, but in addition to Zhou Yi, the other players of Hongta Middle School couldn't prevent a strong center of the opponent. It was only in the end, with a three-pointer from Zhou Yi, that Hongta Middle School won the game with difficulty.

In the next game, Hongta Middle School defeated Caomiao Middle School and Changgou Middle School again, but unfortunately lost to Sizhen County Middle School. Because Sizhen County Middle School is not as good as Zhou Yi in point guard, the other four positions are much better than Hongta Middle School, although Zhou Yi played well, but there is no guarantee that scoring like those NBA superstars is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables, so Hongta Middle School, which is much weaker, lost. However, Hongta Middle School still ranked second in Group D with a record of six wins and one loss, and the first place was Sizhen County Middle School, which did not lose a game.

The next game is four groups to catch and fight, Hongta Middle School is the second in Group D, so the opponent is the first place in Group A, Sizhen County No. 2 Middle School.

Obviously, the strength of Sizhen County No. 2 Middle School is not much different from Sizhen County Middle School, although Zhou Yi, Fang Kai and other team members worked very hard, but they still couldn't defeat opponents who were stronger than themselves in terms of tactics and strength. Zhou Yi was very depressed in the process of playing with No. 2 Middle School. Their own defenders are always confused by the opponent's very decent running position, and the biggest problem is that the defense leaks people, and the offense can only rely on Zhou Yi alone. Therefore, it is inevitable to lose.

After the basketball game, the midterm exams of the first semester of junior high school are coming soon. Zhou Yi knew that he hadn't cared about the company's development for a long time, so he decided to take advantage of this time to talk to Liu Siyuan. Moreover, it was now the end of October '98, what happened to the hundreds of millions of dollars that Zhou Yi had invested in this financial crisis? Did the TX company that Zhou Yi asked Liu Siyuan inquire about? To what extent did Xinhua Entertainment Company develop, and so on, Zhou Yi felt very chaotic for a while.

If you are really in charge of the company when you grow up, how can you deal with these messy things. Zhou Yi wailed, feeling very depressed.

Before the end of the midterm exam, Zhou Yi dialed Liu Siyuan's phone. Liu Siyuan reported a good news to Zhou Yi as soon as he made a phone call, that is, the hundreds of millions of dollars invested by the company have now become nearly 5 billion, and there is still the possibility of continuing to make money.

Zhou Yi was relieved and began to inquire about the development of his company again. After hearing Zhou Yi's question, Liu Siyuan began to introduce them one by one.

In terms of supermarkets, under the instructions of Zhou Yi to occupy small towns, in addition to the original scale of more than 1,000 supermarkets, the company successfully reoccupied the market of more than 200 counties in all provinces north of the Yangtze River. It's just that in the southern counties, because of the competition from supermarkets in eastern Guangdong Province, the development speed is relatively slow. And the wholly-owned supermarket has also added two new ones in the west. These are not things that Zhou Yi is very happy about, and from Liu Siyuan's mouth, Wal-Mart is not able to expand at all now, and most cities in the south have wholly-owned supermarkets or franchised supermarkets of Xinhua Company, plus the boycott of the supermarket association in eastern Guangdong, Wal-Mart now has only two stores in China. Xinhua Supermarket has a very large reputation in the north, and it is the first choice for many people to shop, and the business mode and concept are no worse than Wal-Mart, so Wal-Mart feels that the cake is very big, but there is no place to eat. This is what makes Zhou Yi the happiest.

The construction company has now successfully broken through the encirclement and blockade of the state-owned construction company, and has obtained a large number of construction contracts for residential buildings and office buildings in the northwest province, and the company has really come out of the predicament, but it still needs to be vigorously developed. Zhou Yi knows that after the advent of the new century, the construction company will usher in new development prospects. In terms of wholesale of infrastructure materials, the business is not bad, but because there is no way to compare with those manufacturers with national backgrounds, the cost is a bit high, and the profit is a bit pitiful.

The shipping company is growing steadily, expanding every month. Although long-distance transportation is still based on the province, taxi companies have spread across the first- and second-tier cities in the north, and the development of the southern provinces is still lagging behind, because there are many similar types of companies competing there.

In terms of entertainment, Liu Siyuan successfully signed all the actors on Zhou Yi's list for him. At the same time, what made Zhou Yi excited was that this guy didn't know how to do it, and he actually dug up Comrade Xiaogang, which really surprised Zhou Yi. After recruiting Comrade Xiaogang, the company's first Feng's humorous film is already in full swing. As for the development of entertainment venues, the rapid expansion in the early stage has become a steady progress, but the total number still reaches 150.

The number of hotels has also grown slowly, with only five hotels added in a year. However, the turnover is constantly increasing, and many Xinhua hotels have become a local landmark.

As for the hot pot restaurant that Zhou Yi proposed to open later, although the number has become very large, the turnover is very fluctuating, and the turnover in winter and summer has simply become a difference between day and place.

Liu Siyuan said at the end, and suddenly said: "Xiao'an, what instant messaging tool you asked me to find already has eyebrows, it seems that in Shenzhen, the person who is engaged in this thing seems to be surnamed Ma." ”

"Really?" Zhou Yi asked in surprise.

"Okay, then, you personally bring the funds over and help him set up the company. We invested 49 percent in capital, and the one surnamed Ma invested in technology, accounting for 51 percent. Remember, we only take a stake in the shares, and they do the rest, and we don't interfere. Zhou Yi said.

After Liu Siyuan nodded in agreement, Zhou Yi continued: "Is there any computer talent in the company now? If you don't recruit immediately, as long as it is a technical talent related to computers and networks, as long as you really have the ability, you will immediately dig me up with a high salary." You must take this matter to heart, I won't be too much to recruit a thousand people for me in half a year. ”

Although Liu Siyuan was surprised why Zhou Yi needed a large number of computer talents, he also understood that computers and networks would occupy an important position in business in the future, so he did what Zhou Yi said.
