Chapter 380: A sea of people
Chapter 380 is unbelievable
……
Looking at his smug face, the corners of Fan Yi's mouth twitched and continued: "Don't you like to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean" very much...?"
"Of course, but what do you mean by all this by 'glasses', and do they have anything to do with Bruce Guo?"
"Of course it does. They are all companies founded by my idols!" Li Wei, who had calmed down a little, took the lead.
"At present, the most high-profile ruby company and Google in Silicon Valley, the world's media giant, Hollywood film and television giant 'Matrix Group', the retail and catering giant 'Kwok's', the energy giant 'Enron Pacific', the consumer electronics giant 'Apple', the Wall Street financial upstart 'Phoenix', and the most high-profile financial company in Hong Kong 'Han Hua', are all companies founded and owned by my idol. The most important thing is that he is only 24 years old, and he has worked hard to make a net worth of more than $40 billion in just three years after starting his business!"
"Three years?40 billion U.S. dollars?," Chen Guoxian said in disbelief.
There are many young people who have been successful, but this kind of subversive success is too hard to believe.
"Look at it, here's a message about him in Google Encyclopedia. ”
Fan Yi handed over the laptop in his hand.
"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Looking at the increasingly shocked and unbelievable look on his roommate's face, Li Wei asked proudly. Look at him as if he had achieved all those amazing results. This expression of pride is typical of idolatry.
"It's unbelievable how there can be such a perverted guy in the world. ”
"In addition to amazing talent. My idol is very low-key, rarely gives interviews to the media, and never gives a speech at university. This time he came to our school, it should be the first time he accepted the invitation to give a speech, and the opportunity was too rare. ”
"Our school is amazing. I heard on the Internet that he even turned down invitations from Harvard and Oxford. Gao Jianchen said happily and admiringly.
"We must go early tomorrow to occupy a place, otherwise we are afraid that we will not even be able to enter the door of the auditorium!" Fan Yi calmly reminded.
"That's right. Li Wei nodded affirmatively, "Old Chen, I remember that you didn't have classes in the next two classes tomorrow, right?"
"Hmm. ”
"Then you can go and take a place for us early, and when it's done, the three of us will invite you to dinner!"
"It's okay to take a seat. But your Nintendo console is going to lend me a week to play. ”
"Deal!" Li Wei said quickly.
Scenes like the 308 dormitory are playing out throughout the Chinese University of Hong Kong. For those who are familiar with the Internet and finance, Guo Shouyun is the most famous entrepreneurial elite in the new era and the idol of many people. His success is palpable, and even the ones they intend to emulate. Unlike Li Ka-shing and Fok Ying-tung, the time is too far apart, and there will be respect, but it is difficult to get a sense of recognition.
The next day, after two classes, the entire 308 dormitory took advantage of the relatively long break time to make an appointment to occupy a seat first. But when they came to the auditorium, they were dumbfounded by the crowd in front of them.
"I'm obedient, it's only a few o'clock, why are there so many people!?" Li Wei exclaimed.
"This should not only be our school, there must be news from other schools. Fan Yi frowned.
"Definitely. Look at the kid in front of you with a blue hat, he's a forward for the University of Hong Kong basketball team, I saw him at last year's school basketball game. Gao Jianchen said.
"Look, it's Qiao Yang, the school flower of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology!" Chen Guoxian said in surprise as he pointed to a tall girl in a pink coat in front of him.
Looking at the way his eyes lit up, Li Wei couldn't help but shake his head, "This guy's eyes will never be separated from women!"
Fan Yi and Gao Jianchen nodded in agreement.
"I lived in a dormitory with you for four years, but I still don't know how to open my head. In this world, only a woman, and a beautiful woman, can arouse a man's desire to conquer, and can make a man fight hard to conquer her. ”
Looking at his fixed eyes with clenched fists, the corners of Fan Yi's mouth twitched, and he was not good at words, he took a step back to the side, widening the distance between him and Chen Guoxian. In his opinion, what this friend just said was too middle-of-the-road.
"Too lazy to listen to your nonsense. Glasses, Lao Gao, look at the current situation, we can't go to the last two classes. Otherwise, there will be no place until noon. Li Wei said.
The two nodded in agreement. Looking at the crowd at the entrance of the auditorium, there were almost six or seven hundred. But more and more are coming in. Moreover, it was not until ten o'clock in the morning, and if it had been until two o'clock in the afternoon, God knew how many more people would come.
"Isn't it me? Don't worry, I'll take your seat when the time comes. Chen Guoxian said.
"Forget it. When the time comes, I'm afraid that you will take our place to pick up girls!" Gao Jianchen said after giving him a blank look.
"Lao Gao, you are doubting my character!"
"Since you were a sophomore, when you gave the Alan Tam Red Hall concert tickets we bought to Liao Hong and Chen Xiaofang, you have no character in my heart!"
"I'm also thinking about you getting off the list. ”
"Hey, it's weird to believe you!"
While they were arguing, Fan Yi looked around and walked to the left.
"Glasses, where are you going?"
"It's too far from the entrance of the auditorium, so let's move closer and maybe get a seat when we get in. ”
"Yes, wait for me!" Li Wei hurriedly followed.
"Hey, wait for us!"
As time went on, more and more people gathered outside the auditorium of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. By noon, the number of people waiting here had far exceeded the capacity of the auditorium.
Seeing this situation, not only were the students who came with excitement dumbfounded, but even the teachers in charge frowned.
"Professor Li, why are there so many people?"
Looking at the crowd of people in front of him, Chen Chusheng was shocked.
It is said that 10,000 people win the wilderness, and he can be regarded as having seen it. Not to mention the surroundings of the auditorium, the surrounding lawns, corridors, steps, and even the nearby teaching buildings are full of overwhelming crowds.
Li Haocheng, who was in charge of the venue arrangement, also smiled bitterly.
"As soon as we finished lunch, that's it. ”
"Is all the students from our school here?" asked a teacher next to him.
"Nope. But at least most of them came. And there were students from other universities who also rushed to hear the news. ”
"I really didn't expect so many people?"
"Yes! I have been working at Chinese University for almost ten years, and I have never seen such a popular speech!"
Compared to other teachers, they are simply curious and amazed. Li Haocheng and Chen Chusheng are mostly worried. After all, the two of them are responsible for this speech, and if something goes wrong, it must be their responsibility.
"Principal Chen, if you look at so many people, the auditorium will definitely not work. Can you communicate with Mr. Guo and change the location of the speech to the playground?"
"Can't you limit the number of people who can enter the Great Hall?"
"I want to limit it too. But if you look at so many people, if most of them can't get in, they have to rebel!" Li Haocheng said with a wry smile.
Chen Chusheng looked at the crowd of people in front of him and agreed with his judgment. The young man was angry, and if something happened, he couldn't explain it.
"Okay, I'll go talk to Mr. Guo!"
……
"Rebecca, what do you think I'm going to wear?"
"Good suit!"
"Wouldn't it look too serious in a suit?"
"Then wear a shirt!"
"Are you going to freeze me to death?"
The corners of Rebecca's eyes jumped, "Boss, you don't need me to remind you of such a thing as wearing a thermal underwear underneath!"
"Haha, of course. Just kidding, don't take it too seriously!"
Rebecca pouted. As she has been working as an assistant to this big boss for a long time, she has gradually become accustomed to the occasional nervous condition of the other party.
"Bell bell...!"
Just then, her cell phone rang suddenly.
"Hey, hello...!"
After listening for a few seconds, Rebecca pressed the earpiece, looked up and said, "Boss, I just received a message from Hong Kong Chinese University." Because there are so many students who are going to hear your speech far exceed the maximum number of seats in their auditorium, they want to change the location of the lecture to the school playground. ”
"Playground?
Rebecca shrugged, "At least that's what it said on the phone." ”
"Okay, I didn't expect me to be quite popular!" Guo Shouyun said happily.
"They're still waiting for your news!"
Rebecca couldn't help but interrupt.
"Agreed, I agreed! Anyway, the content of the speech remains the same, it is the same everywhere... However, I should have dressed thicker, it was too cold on the playground!"
After a long day in front of the mirror, Guo Shouyun wore a navy blue cashmere jacket with a stand-up collar, a white shirt inside, black pants and coffee-colored leather shoes, and went out with Rebecca, Matthew, and Pan Shuzhen, who was responsible for guiding them.
Hong Kong is not big, and there is no rush hour in the afternoon, so after half an hour, I arrived at the gate of Hong Kong Chinese University.
"Mr. Guo, it's still early, let's go to the school reception room first. ”
Guo Shouyun smiled and nodded, "You are more familiar with us here, everything is up to you!"
By the time their motorcade arrived at the school administration building, there were already a lot of people standing outside to greet them. Apparently they were waiting here because they got the news in advance.
Guo Shouyun is not surprised by this way of courtesy. After looking at his clothes, they were quite neat, and then pushed the car door and walked down. After his eyes quickly swept through the crowd in front of him, he stood in the middle with a smile on his face, and a spirited, round-framed glasses, slightly chubby old man took the initiative to stretch out his right hand.
"Principal Kim, it's a great honor to meet you!"
Although this speech was not a serious business merger, Guo Shouyun did a little about the main school leaders, school strength, well-known alumni and other materials of Chinese University. That's respectful.
Mr. Guo was polite. After a pause, Jin Yaoji looked up and down before he sighed a little, "I have always heard that Mr. Guo was less than 24 years old and created tens of billions of dollars in assets from scratch. I really met him, and I really understood how young and promising Mr. Guo is!"
"You've won a prize. ”
"Not arrogant, not arrogant, good. Come, let me introduce you, this is Professor Yau Chengtong!"
Guo Shouyun hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his right hand respectfully and actively to the other party, "Professor Qiu, when I was at Stanford, I once listened to your class. Your achievements in differential geometry, topology, and general relativity are world-class!"
Yau Chengtong, the world's top mathematician, won the Wiblen Prize of the American Mathematical Association, one of the world's top differential geometry awards at the age of 32, and was awarded the Fields Medal, the highest honor in the world's mathematical community, at the age of 33, the first Chinese winner of the award. Later, he won the MacArthur Prize, the Cafford Prize, the National Medal of Science, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, the Marcel Gross Prize, etc., which are real awards and are all world-class awards.
Such top mathematicians have naturally become guests of honor at various national academies of sciences and top universities. He is currently the director of the Institute of Mathematics at Chinese University.
"Guo Shouyun, I remember you. At the beginning, the differential geometry problem I assigned in the class was only you and Sheng Yanbin who could get it right. Originally, I thought that I would let the two of you take the postgraduate examination for me, but I didn't expect Sheng Yanbin to transfer to finance, and you directly started a business and became an entrepreneur!" When the words fell, he shook his head regretfully. In Yau Chengtong's heart, what he hopes to see most is the prosperity of the mathematical community, and Guo Shouyun is one of the seedlings he is most optimistic about.
"Professor Qiu, there are many people who are smarter than me. There are so many mathematicians in the world that you don't have to feel sorry for me. And, I think I'm better suited to be a businessman than a mathematician!"
Qiu Chengtong nodded, "It's indeed more appropriate to look at your current achievements." … I hope you can make more contributions to the development and progress of the world economy in the future. ”
"Do your best!"
This dialogue between teachers and students has come to an end for the time being.
Later, Jin Yaoji introduced others to Guo Shouyun. In addition to well-known professors and scholars at Chinese University, there are also business elites such as Zheng Haiquan, vice chairman and CEO of Hang Seng Bank, Liu Xiaoying, co-founder of Eagle Fund, Gan Qinglin, vice chairman and general manager of Cheung Kong Industrial, and most of them are trustees of Chinese University.
However, what surprised Guo Shouyun the most was that he met Li Dagongzi, who had a few faces, here.
"Brother Guo, let's meet again!"
"It's really surprising to see Brother Ze here!"
Li Zeju smiled, "This is Hong Kong, and I am also a 'landlord' here, so it's normal for Brother Guo to see me here." Moreover, I have always wanted to listen to Brother Guo's high talk on the spot, so I specially asked President Jin to reserve a seat. ”
Guo Shouyun nodded, "I see." But don't dare to talk about it, if it's too superficial for a while, don't laugh at me. ”
"With Brother Guo's achievements, no one in the business community in the world has the confidence to make fun of you!"
"Haha, true or not. This sentence is really happy to hear, thank you!"
"My words are sincere, not something to brag about!"
Time relationship, after the two briefly exchanged a few words, Jin Yaoji introduced the rest of the people to Guo Shouyun, and after the more than 30 people shook hands one by one, the time for the speech was almost up. Soon, the group came to the school playground with a simple exchange.
