Chapter 346: Model Couple
After Xu Teng's visit to ASEAN this time, there is still a lot of work to be busy, first of all, the internal reorganization of the "China Huateng Electronic Technology Group Corporation", which involves the internal reorganization of communications, mobile phones, chips, panels, and program-controlled industries, the problem is very complicated, and it cannot be solved by Shi Lirong, the chairman of the group who parachuted in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Huateng Electronics is the most important link in Xu Teng's Industry 3.0 strategy, a direct subsidiary of Huateng Company, which directly represents the technical level and image of Huateng Company, and the core company of the entire Huateng system.
The restructuring of Huateng Electronics is also the most important work of Huayin Consortium at present.
Even so, after Sister Su made some small requests, Xu Teng immediately changed the original work schedule and accompanied Sister Su to fly to the capital to meet with the leaders of China National Nuclear Corporation and the leaders of relevant competent departments.
The layout of the Huayin consortium in the power system is quite far-reaching, since 2002 full involvement, the domestic power, telecommunications, petroleum, railway four major systems have been the big customers of the Huayin consortium, separate accounting, CCB is still the four major systems of the largest financing bank, but to account for the entire consortium, the total financing ratio of the Huayin consortium has been higher than that of CCB and ICBC.
Compared with CCB and ICBC, the financing services provided by Huayin Consortium are more comprehensive, in addition to bank loans, it can also provide a package of solutions such as listed IPOs, corporate bonds, investment bank financing, and private equity funds.
State Grid's Hong Kong listing, as well as its two shell resource financing listings on the mainland's A-shares, including the recent US$7 billion corporate bond issuance on the A-shares, Hong Kong stocks and the London stock market, are all operated by the Huayin consortium.
As the largest private consortium in the mainland, the Huayin consortium, which owns a number of financial enterprises, needs to maintain loans, financing and other businesses, and needs to have a solid relationship with key customers, while the four major systems of electricity, telecommunications, petroleum and railways have always been the best quality key customers in China.
Many people say that it is difficult for private enterprises to lend, and the Huayin Consortium, as a model of China's private enterprises, should develop more private enterprise loan markets and provide more financing services for private enterprises.
People who say this kind of thing are bastards, and they all stand and talk without backache, or they are speaking for their own gold owners.
For banks, for banks all over the world, for all bankers in the world, State Grid, China Telecom, PetroChina...... Such enterprises are the best quality large customers, and they can meet as many loan needs as they want.
A private enterprise is a private enterprise, and we should not use "private ownership" in the market to win sympathy.
If you give a loan to a private enterprise, the other party collapses, and the boss runs away, that is, you are unlucky, you give a loan to a state-owned enterprise, even if it collapses, the local state-owned enterprise looks for the province, the central state-owned enterprise looks for the central government, and the boss will never run.
Even the worst zombie state-owned enterprises will eventually have a solution that satisfies all parties, especially for banks, so that they will not lose money, and there will always be a local financial guarantee at the bottom.
HSBC and Citi also have loan business in the mainland, and if you check the data, 80% of the business is to provide financing services for state-owned enterprises.
Everyone understands this truth, as long as you are a state-owned enterprise, the boss will never be able to run.
Huayin Consortium has worked hard over the years, with thoughtful service, a variety of financing methods, adapted to local conditions, and different to ensure the satisfaction of the other party, otherwise it would not be possible to surpass CCB and ICBC and become the first financing consortium of the four major systems in China.
Of course, the relationship between the Huayin Consortium and the provinces is relatively harmonious, the relationship is all-round, and many large projects are involved, and it is inevitable that through the provincial government, the state-owned enterprises of the four major systems will be required to give priority to the financial services of the Huayin Consortium.
For example, in Shanghai, Jianghuai, Jiangnan, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangxi, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Shaanxi...... For many large projects, the Huayin Consortium is the second, third and fourth people who directly send high-level officials to negotiate in person, and many of them are package transaction plans.
As a private enterprise, many of the skills of the Huayin Consortium are still very flexible, which is also a well-known thing, and there is no need to put it on the table.
It is with such a very close cooperative relationship that many subsidiaries of the Huayin Consortium are also beneficiaries, such as the automobile procurement of the four major systems, and the purchase of Tiggo and Roewe of Huateng Automobile in large quantities under the banner of supporting national brands.
In the power system, the cooperation between Huayin Consortium and major power enterprises and power grids is more in-depth, including power grid monitoring, relay protection, power grid dispatching automation, electricity metering, power system informatization, power system communication, and power plant control automation...... Huateng Hi-Tech Group, which is controlled by Huateng Company, and Central Control, Zhejiang Haina, and NARI all occupy a large share.
Basically, in the field of DCS and high-speed industrial control network EPA of the four major systems of petrochemical, electric power, railway and telecommunications, the Huayin consortium can firmly occupy a place and compete with Honeywell \ Siemens.
All in all, the cooperation between the Huayin consortium and the power system is extremely extensive and deep, including CNNC, CGNPC, and the newly established National Nuclear Technology Corporation.
At this stage, the situation is still relatively special, the establishment of the State Nuclear Technology Corporation and the change of the China General Nuclear Power Group from a local state-owned enterprise to a central enterprise have formed a situation of confrontation between the three giants in China's nuclear power field.
At the national level, the State Nuclear Technology Corporation has officially introduced Westinghouse's AP1000 technology localization as the only standard for China's third-generation nuclear power technology.
This is a major technical and economic miscalculation, and it is also a major blow to the China National Nuclear Corporation, which is independently developing the third-generation nuclear power technology.
At this stage in 2009, not many people, whether it is senior leaders, industry insiders, or the public, really believe that China can develop its own third-generation nuclear power technology, and everyone still lacks this self-confidence.
It was in such a situation that Xu Teng personally went to the capital to meet with the leadership of CNNC, which was actually the first time Xu Teng visited the other party.
The level of this visit is very high, the big boss of the Huayin Consortium, the chairman of the entire consortium came over in person for the first time, and CNNC must attach great importance to it.
At least 80 percent of the talents in the field of nuclear power and nuclear industry in China are concentrated in the China National Nuclear Corporation, and the only problem is that there is no money and no central financial support, so it can only rely on its own capital to promote the research and development of domestic third-generation nuclear power technology -- the central financial support in this regard has long gone to the National Nuclear Technology Corporation, and a large amount of funds are used to support the localization of Westinghouse's AP1000 technology.
Xu Teng wants to develop in this field, there are more problems, one has no talent, two has no technology, three has no national qualification certificate, and the only advantage is that he has money.
Never mind.
For CNNC, you just have to have money.
If Xu Teng can stand up and speak for the CAP1000 technology of CNNC as a global high-tech industry leader and a leader of Chinese entrepreneurs, it will be even more difficult for CNNC to ask for it.
Xu Teng is October 4 to end the ASEAN business inspection and visit trip, just returned to China, too late to deal with the reorganization of Huateng Electronics, on the 7th urgently flew to the capital, and China National Nuclear Corporation high-level meeting and negotiation.
Soon, Sister Su and Orient International Power Investment Group Company also joined the negotiations.
The three parties had their own needs, and the conversation was very pleasant.
Three days.
At 5 p.m. on October 10, 2009, the three parties signed a preliminary agreement to establish Huarui Electric Power Technology Co., Ltd., a joint venture between CNNC, TEPCO Group and Huateng Company, to jointly promote the research and development and construction of domestic third-generation nuclear power technology CAP1000.
Huateng's capital injection is US$350 million, accounting for 25% of the total share capital, TEPCO accounts for 20%, and CNNC accounts for 55%, in addition, according to the preliminary agreement, Huayin Consortium will provide CNNC with a financing loan of US$2 billion, and will be responsible for underwriting 4 billion RMB corporate bonds for CNNC and arranging the listing of Huarui Power.
In fact, this is that one party can't do it, the three parties lobby the upper level to support it, and the political and business connections of the three parties get together, and quickly ride the tide of 4 trillion yuan to get a model project.
Whether this technology will work or not, we have to get a nuclear power plant out as soon as possible, and we will only know after the official operation.
If we really want to wait for the successful localization of AP1000 of the State Nuclear Technology Corporation, even if only 70% of the equipment and technology are localized, the CAP1000 of the China National Nuclear Corporation will definitely be in vain, the model project will be completed, and the domestic market share will also be carved up by AP1000.
What's more, CGN is also introducing French technology, which should be based on French technology, independent of CNNC and CNNC, and develop an independent "domestic" third-generation nuclear power technology in the mode of CGNPC.
If you really want to talk about money, CGN is actually richer than CNNC.
CNNC is a large volume, perfect industrial chain, but relatively poor, there are too many subsidiaries and research institutes with poor efficiency, this time chose to cooperate with Huayin Consortium and TEPCO Group, basically did not pay money, and many subsidiaries took out joint ventures.
In addition, CNNC has a nuclear power license, which is a good thing, but neither the Huayin Consortium nor the TEPCO Group have it.
Since Xu Teng's investment is the main force, he is certainly qualified to put forward an additional requirement to take the "nuclear power treasure" project to Huarui Electric Power Company, two directions, one is micro nuclear power technology, and the other is mobile nuclear power plant.
As long as he pays for it, there will definitely be no problem on CNNC's side.
This is actually a bit of a side, the State Nuclear Technology Corporation has a project in the future, and there must be nothing to do with the Huayin Consortium, because the two sides have not had too many interests to bind before, and the CGN side is generally fine, because the third largest shareholder of the CGN Group is Macau Galaxy Capital Company.
Generally speaking, the interests of the Huayin consortium in the power system are still very widely distributed, and the relationship with various central enterprises is very close, and cooperation is definitely greater than competition.
After all, the pillar of the Huayin Consortium is the financial industry, which determines that the Huayin Consortium and every central enterprise are good friends, mutual assistance and win-win relationship, anyway, the power plant bidding, as long as the technical standards are similar, the owner will definitely choose the products of the Huayin Consortium.
My cable is yours, DCS is yours, relay protection is yours, the whole plant automation control system is yours, my civil engineering general contractor is yours, I am now telling you, can the repayment cycle be relaxed, can you make a sum of money first, this must be very easy to discuss.
Although these subsidiaries of the Huayin Consortium are basically in charge of their own businesses, at the level of Li Daxiao and Xu Teng, many things are negotiable.
Isn't that how business works, helping each other?
The power system is one of the largest businesses in China, without one.
This is also the reason why Xu Teng is willing to help Sister Su and TEPCO Group, without the help provided by Sister Su over the years, there would be no Huayin Consortium such a strong influence in the field of power systems.
Therefore, this joint venture agreement with CNNC is not enough.
On October 12, the fifth day after arriving in the capital, Xu Teng once again signed a "Planning Statement on Cooperation to Promote China's Offshore Wind Power Industry" with TEPCO Group on behalf of Huateng Company.
China's wind power industry is very unbalanced, mainly concentrated in the northwest region, and these regions are all large thermal power provinces and weak industrial provinces, and their own power demand is simply not used.
The cost of wind power is also relatively high, and it is difficult to connect to the grid, and even if it is connected to the grid, there is a large gap between the installed capacity and the actual power generation.
The cost of offshore wind power is relatively higher, because the price of equipment is higher, and there must be anti-salt, anti-fog and anti-corrosion technology, Huateng company's technology in this field is not perfect, but it is definitely ahead of the world, after all, it has a number of R&D bases and subsidiaries in the world, and it is also the wind power equipment supplier with the highest market share in the world.
The advantage of offshore wind power is that it is close to the power demand area of the eastern seaboard, and it is very difficult to integrate into the grid, and the only problem is the cost, which depends on the subsidy policy provided by the national finance.
Xu Teng and Sister Su's strategy is very simple, regardless of the cost, first circle the best location, first build an offshore wind power station, and then gradually expand the scale of investment according to policy and technological development.
The total amount of wind power generation, the future is definitely higher than photovoltaic power generation, in the country, to ensure that the four compete for three, at least the fourth largest power generation force, whether it can compete with nuclear power, then depends on the national policy.
TEPCO Group does have a large number of thermal power and hydropower projects in its hands, but the question is what to do in five years?
Xu Teng's answer is to demarcate nuclear power with one hand and wind power with the other, first circle the location, and then expand and put into operation after five years, and at the same time accelerate the entry into the overseas power market and find ways to merge and acquire foreign power suppliers.
Electric power, telecommunications, petrochemicals, railways, the four major systems, the real involvement of the Huayin consortium in the relatively shallow field is the railway, of course, in this area, Xu Teng is also working hard to develop, some time ago to help CSR to acquire the Czech SkodaTranspotaion company, it is for this consideration, and the name of the SkodaTranspotaion company is translated as the Skoda Railway Train Company.
This is the electrified train manufacturing company of the Czech Škoda Group, and the most traditional supplier of trams in Central and Eastern Europe, where many railway trains and subways are manufactured in the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary and even Russia.
Before the 90s of the last century, the Czech Republic made this thing in the socialist family dominated by the Soviet Union, and the technical level was good, and the main competitor in the Central and Eastern European market was Siemens.
Siemens originally wanted to merge the company, but after the subprime mortgage crisis, it abandoned the acquisition agreement, which allowed Huateng to pick up the leak.
With this company, CSR not only entered the EU market in one go, but also has a very good market share in the Central and Eastern European market, and in terms of technology, in fact, there are also a lot of benefits.
At present, 55% of the shares of the Skoda train company belong to Huateng Company, 40% of the shares belong to CSR, and another 5% belong to an investment company in Germany...... There is no doubt that this is the investment company of the Quandt family.
This is a temporary situation, five years later, if the investment returns are good, Xu Teng will exchange the shares of this company for the shares of CSR Group at a more suitable price.
Eventually, Huateng will become the second largest shareholder of CSR Group, with voting rights and a seat on the board of directors, while the Skoda Railway train company will be fully owned by CSR Group and become the group's European subsidiary.
Since Xu Teng has arrived in the capital, the leaders of China National Nuclear Corporation and the State Grid Corporation have visited him, and he will definitely visit the leaders of the railway, telecommunications and petrochemical systems.
In the past, he rarely visited any party in person, after all, he opened a bank and was responsible for borrowing money, and there was no reason for him to visit others, generally when others went to Huzhou, or when they went to Jiangzhou, they visited him by the way, or the second, third and fourth people of the Huayin Consortium visited the capital.
Depending on the level, the topics discussed will certainly be different.
Xu Teng personally visited the leadership of the four major systems in the capital, and there were many topics that could be discussed, from domestic industrial upgrading, to overseas mergers and acquisitions, to corporate bonds, to the listing and financing of a specific subsidiary, to bank loans for specific projects, to the technical standards of specific project procurement contracts...... Every day is a variety of meetings scheduled.
Sometimes, four or five collaborative projects are discussed in a meeting.
The debt of the railway system is a bit much, but Xu Teng is not worried about the debt of the railway system, let alone bad debts, as long as it is a suitable line, he can provide more friendly financing services, even if it is an unsuitable line, he can also take out a loan, anyway, there is a national financial guarantee.
Xu Teng also proposed a new way of cooperation, for projects that the railway system is worried about poor profits, the Huayin consortium and the railway department can cooperate to establish a joint venture company, and the Huayin consortium will inject capital and finance, and the two sides will share the risk.
For this proposal, the railway system is very interested, to say that the railway system is worried about the profitability of the high-speed rail project, in fact, there are many, except for the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, the others are basically all, I am afraid that Xu Teng just said casually, when he really wants to pay for the loss, he turned around and ran.
It was not until early November that Xu Teng finally found time to meet with Ms. Xiao, the head of the China Nature Conservation Foundation, who was none other than Sister Su's friend and Wu Yongbang's third wife.
Xu Teng also deliberately waited for more than a month, waiting for the other party to get the approval for the establishment of the foundation.
Xu Teng has two foundations, one is the Huateng Science Development Foundation and the other is the Huateng Education Foundation, both of which were first established in Hong Kong and later moved to the mainland for registration – a process that took several years.
The registration process of the China Nature Conservation Foundation was quite smooth, from the application to the successful registration, the whole process was only 3 months, and the original registered name was not the current name, and the application information was temporarily changed a month ago.
Of course, given the background of the other party, this is all taken for granted.
The so-called 4 billion yuan of charitable donations raised by the society is actually the money allocated in advance from the $1 billion donation promised by Xu Teng, and the subsequent ones will continue to be allocated in the name of social fundraising in ten years.
This time, everyone was satisfied.
Xu Teng has sent Zhao Danyang to negotiate with the board of directors of Elion Resources, which is not as exaggerated as the other party's initial offer, 400 million RMB to acquire 70% of the equity, half of which will come from the China Nature Conservation Foundation, as the first ecological protection and desert prevention project of the China Nature Conservation Foundation.
After the acquisition by Xu Teng, this company will be merged into the name of Huateng Ecological Technology Company, and the main project of Huateng Ecological Technology Company is the research and development of the space ecosystem, that is, the ecosystem of the outer space colony base.
It doesn't matter whether this kind of company makes money or not, throw it on the GEM, and wait for the stock to skyrocket tenfold and the price-earnings ratio to exceed 50 times.
Xu Teng, accompanied by Sister Su, met with Ms. Xiao, and talked about the long-term development plan of Huateng Ecological Technology Company and the China Nature Foundation.
As for when she and Wu Yongbang divorced, how they divided it, and how the property was divided, Xu Teng didn't ask.
In the first half of 2009, after everything was vaguely disclosed in the media, Xu Teng could guess how much influence it had on Ms. Xiao and how much pressure it had within the family.
Xu Teng is not afraid of Wu Yongbang, there is a particularly important place that Mr. Xu, Sister Su, and Lao Jiang have all visited the elders of the Xiao family, and several old people have always been very opposed to the marriage of Ms. Xiao and Wu Yongbang, and their attitude towards Mr. Lu is also unfriendly.
At this time, Xu Teng has nothing to be embarrassed about, he, Sister Su, and this Ms. Xiao drank afternoon tea for two hours in Ruilin's house, and at dinner time in the evening, Gu Xueli and Lu Fangfang arrived first, and Xia Li and Jiang Yingyu arrived last...... Xia Li arrived a few weeks ago, and she has been fine, and in the afternoon she went out shopping with Jiang Yingyu, and by the way, she went to the Jiateng International Building of Shenzhou Media Group to meet her former agent.
These are goddesses.
Xu Teng is to introduce the goddesses, the directors of the "China Nature Conservation Foundation", eat a little, then leave, go back to the backyard of Ruilin's house, read the information in the house alone, drink a glass of wine quietly, and think about life.
The "China Conservation Foundation" is a quasi-official organization, and Xia Li's Yangtze River Wildlife Conservation Foundation, which has always been affiliated with the China Environmental Protection Foundation, is actually a bit discordant.
If it weren't for Xia Li's identity as a daughter-in-law of the Xu family, the identity of the chairman of the foundation would basically be hollowed out, even so, a lot of funds would be siphoned off, and most of the projects would still have to be arranged.
Therefore, Xu Teng took advantage of this opportunity to move Xia Li's foundation to Ms. Xiao instead, and find a powerful backer, saving Xia Li from always worrying about the misuse of funds.
There were so many problems in the Youth Foundation before, and the Red Cross made so many problems later, and it was really no wind and no waves.
The biggest problem with China's official philanthropy lies here, and it is still a big official who is an official.
It wasn't until more than 9 o'clock in the evening that the dinner of those goddesses ended, and Xia Li returned to the backyard, she was also in Jiangzhou in the morning, and she temporarily flew to the capital in the afternoon.
"Are they all gone?" Xu Teng, as the male host of Ruilin Mansion, did not come forward to see off the guests, and handed over these things to Xia Li and Jiang Yingyu.
"No, Sister Xiao and Sister Su have a lot of things, I went to the bar, and I guess I won't be able to go back until late. Xia Li took off the hairpin, spread out her beautiful black hair, packed up her underwear, and prepared to take a shower first.
She was about to go to the bathroom, when she suddenly turned back with a smile and asked Xu Teng, "Together?"
"Okay. Although Xu Teng has been washed, he has never refused this kind of request, he has been busy in the capital during this time, even if Xia Li arrived in the capital a few weeks ago and lived in Ruilin Mansion to accompany him, he has little time to accompany Xia Li.
You think, when you go to a place like the capital, Xu Teng is not exempt from vulgarity, electricity, telecommunications, railways, petrochemicals...... The leaders of the major systems took the initiative to invite him to dinner, and he definitely had to give him this affection.
These are the big customers of major domestic banks, who take the initiative to ask for loans.
Every night, Xu Teng didn't come back until more than 9 o'clock in the evening, or even more than 10 o'clock in the evening, today it is rare for him to wait for Xia Li, and what is even more rare is that the two daughters were sent to Macau, and they were taken care of by Mr. Xu's mother, who was upgraded to the grandparents.
Pity.
This night is also destined not to belong to Xu Teng and Xia Li, they are happy, and before they have anything, Hua Lingling called and said that Sister Su invited the two of them to the bar to have some more drinks.
It's 10 o'clock in the evening, what are you drinking?
It's a pity, it's rare to ask someone to do something, so you still have to go!
Ruilin Bar is all private rooms, Xu Teng and Xia Li don't clean up, they all wear a pair of pajamas, Xia Li's pajamas are quite cute, pink cotton pajamas, and a family photo of Gray Taro printed with cartoon series.
When he arrived at the box, Xu Teng took a general look, and felt that Sister Xiao had drunk a lot, and she was still chattering with Sister Su complaining, she had just divorced, which didn't feel very good.
Marriage, it's all like this, it's good at the beginning, it's not good, it's not going to get married, right?
After five or six years, there are basically two situations, one is still making up, and the other is not making up.
Xu Teng and Xia Li are better, they are childhood sweethearts, for so many years, although there is no such time as a hot and passionate time, they also respect each other like guests, and they cherish this fate with each other, hoping to hold the hand of their son and grow old with their son.
Even if Xu Teng occasionally had a situation outside, Xia Li was out of sight, not upset, to put it mildly, the most chaotic time had passed, and she didn't care about this.
Fortunately, Xu Teng is not a café, there is no other woman in his heart, and being with Xia Li is not for her to be rich, to be famous or something, there is no intention, it is pure love.
The best thing is that Xu Teng does not belong to workaholics, and his style of managing the company also belongs to the lazy school, and he would rather tolerate his subordinates' incompetence than do it himself, let alone go into battle in person.
Otherwise, he would not have gone to the capital for the first time in so many years to visit the leaders of the four major systems, which made these leaders overjoyed, thinking that the sun had come out of the west, and the chairman of the Huayin Foundation, who had always lived in the palace, actually came out to patrol the mountains and worship the wharf.
In addition to going out to visit, there is really no way, one go is more than ten days, Xu Teng is at home normally, he really works 5 hours a day, and goes home after work, he would rather read the information silently in the study than squander his time in the company.
On average, Xu Teng spends about ten hours a day with Xia Li and her daughter, and the family goes on vacation for about two weeks every year, and generally arranges activities on weekends.
The current Xu Teng, who dare not say that he is a good husband in China, can almost be regarded as one of the candidates.
As for Xia Li, I dare not say that she is a good wife in China, and she can almost be regarded as one of the candidates, first, she never bothered Xu Teng for relatives and friends, her rules are that it is okay to borrow money, and she does not expect any relatives to repay the money, but if she wants to arrange work and business, she will not meet, she will be offended, she doesn't care; Two words, to tell the truth, she didn't believe that Xu Teng would really fall in love with any woman, let alone that Xu Teng would be deceived by a vixen, it was impossible.
3. She has no ambition, except for symbolically managing a foundation and receiving friends and foundation managers at home, she basically does not go out, does not organize any charity activities to show love, and does not attend these activities.
She was quietly at home with the children...... Actually, with her two daughters, she didn't put too much thought into it, and even let Hua Lingling be responsible for choosing a tutor.
Although she is the mother of two daughters, she is still the kind of literary goddess who can play the guitar on the balcony.
Fourth, don't talk about money, never talk about money with Xu Teng, anyway, she uses as much as Xu Teng transfers to the account every year, does not save or borrow, no more and no less, basically runs out on New Year's Day...... Therefore, the New Year's red envelopes distributed by the Xu family on New Year's Day every year are often several times thicker than the New Year's red envelopes of the Spring Festival.
Don't think that the Xu family's New Year's red envelopes are thousands of yuan.
Like Hua Lingling, a single file, the Spring Festival red envelope is at least 200,000, and the New Year's Day red envelope is tripled, Guo Jian, Sister Hong, and Jin Xiaotao are the second level, slightly less than half, in general, the red envelopes for all festivals in a year are sent down, and the annual salary is about the same.
One year, maybe 07 or 08, Xia Li sent a little exaggerated New Year's Day red envelope to everyone, the reason is very simple, her living expenses that year were left more than 10 million yuan and did not use it.
Anyway, she doesn't worry that the cost of living will be reduced next year, and she doesn't need to tell Xu Teng, she doesn't need to tell her parents-in-law, Xu Teng is a smart person and understands reason, and it will generally rise by about 10% every year, which can definitely offset the inflation rate.
Fifth, don't spend money indiscriminately, at least compared with Jiang Yingyu and Luo Yujuan, Xia Li's expenses are very rational, as long as she likes it, hundreds of thousands of leather bags can be bought, and tens of millions of jewelry can be bought.
Similarly, handbags of hundreds of dollars, hairpins of hundreds of dollars have also been bought, and the only place where she absolutely adheres to high-end luxury is not bags, but shoes, and only wears custom-made Italian women's shoes, because they are really comfortable and nothing else.
In Xu Teng's opinion, this is really the most rational goddess, and she is probably also in the eyes of a lover, anyway, he can't find fault.
This is probably the model couple in the Chinese business community.
Xu Teng asked in his heart, he felt that he had done well over the years, and he had been improving, Xia Li was even more impeccable, from 2001 to 2009, 9 years together, it was really good.
Of course he knows what an unhappy marriage looks like, that is, Sister Xiao and Wu Yongbang are like them, that is, Chen Yulong and Yang Yun, the former is time to prove a man's hypocrisy, and the latter is basically no real feelings, one for profit, one for money.
At this time, Xu Teng and Xia Li entered Sister Su's bar box, listening to Sister Su and Sister Xiao sighing at the hypocrisy of men together, it was still a little embarrassing for Xu Teng and Xia Li, who were a model couple.
The two eldest sisters drank a little too much, and one sip of "You men" made Xu Teng really unable to laugh.
Xu Teng just listened and drank a little cognac with him, but Xia Li didn't please them at all, and followed them to feel that men are scum, because she has always felt that her men are very good, and she grew up watching them since she was a child.
Yes, she grew up watching, from being bullied by the big kids in the yard in elementary school, to bullying other classmates in middle school, to bullying people in high school, writing novels at the same time, and then starting a business in college, organizing a band, and finally graduating, inheriting the family business, and starting to bully everyone...... Except for being misled by Mei Jiali for a period of time in the middle, there is basically nothing to pick.
Xia Li also knows that Xu Teng's business skills are actually quite ruthless, and sometimes they are quite yin, from Chen Anbang to Liu Yinxia, basically as long as he is a scumbag, he bullies him very ruthlessly, but she really doesn't think Xu Teng is hypocritical.
Xia Li told the truth, the current Xu Teng is no different from his high school days, that is, the level of bullying has been sublimated, in the past, he used to use fists and feet, but now he uses strategy.
Xia Li would not tell Xu Teng that Liu Yinxia once knelt in front of her and asked her to persuade Xu Teng to spare her life, she was just sitting on the sofa, watching the masterpiece "China" translated by the American poet Pound into ancient Chinese poetry, and silently savoring the English version of "Long Song Xing", when Liu Yinxia did not exist at all, whether Liu Yinxia was begging or being ruthless.
Yes, she's such a woman.
If Xu Teng is a cloud, she is a woman sleeping in the cloud, as if she is isolated from the world, and she can look down on the world and float away.
She was still the girl in high school, and she was a little interested in everything, but in fact, she had no special interest in anything, she lived her life quietly, holding Xu Teng's hand, and waiting for the years to pass.
Therefore, no matter how Sister Su or Sister Xiao sighed, Xia Li didn't have much sympathy, let alone say some hypocritical sighs to please them, she just listened quietly, watched, and occasionally comforted them with a smile.
Xia Li didn't think that her attitude actually made Sister Su quite speechless, and it was strange if she wasn't jealous.
Sister Su is telling the truth, a girl like Xia Li is extremely good at life, her childhood sweetheart's husband is actually the richest man in the world, and he is still a tall and handsome man who insists on working five hours a day.
How many lifetimes does it take to be a nun to cultivate such a good marriage?
Because of Jian Chen's relationship, Sister Su really understands Xu Teng's living conditions, she is saying the second truth, there is actually no shortage of good men in China, but there are not many good men of the level of Xu Teng and Chen Jian in China, she was definitely born more than ten years early. (To be continued.) )
