Indeed, after Lotte's vague sycophancy, Li Lao smiled even brighter, "Does Boss Li know my past very well!" ”

"That's right." Lotte said unabashedly: "Yes, I like what you said the most, a life of hardship is the best exercise in my life, especially being a salesman, so that I have learned a lot of things and understood a lot of things, these are what I can't buy with 1 billion or 10 billion today." ”

Li Ka-shing fell into thinking again and said indifferently: "In the eyes of some people, the suffering in life is terrible, but in the eyes of the strong-willed, suffering is just a hurdle in life. ”

When Li Ka-shing spoke, with a little self-deprecation, he continued:

"At that time, I was 17 years old, quit my job in Zhongnan Watch, to work as a salesman in a very small hardware factory, this incident surprised many people, they thought that I, a young man with exquisite learning and skilled salesmanship, would definitely become a small role in the watch industry, but I did not expect that I left when Zhongnan Watch gained momentum, but changed careers again."

"Actually, my analysis of the prospects of the watch industry at that time, although I was optimistic about the prospects of Zhongnan Company, but what attracted me more was the changing economic situation in Hong Kong. I want to take advantage of my youth to broaden my horizons and explore more ways to do something great in this changing economic situation. ”

"As it turned out, I was right, selling a seemingly simple job actually helped me absolutely, and decades later, I was able to speak elegantly and think quickly on various occasions, and I became a debater."

Lotte complimented: "This is very admirable. ”

"If you want customers to buy your products, you have to think of a way to deal with everything in advance, face different customers, use different rhetoric, for this reason, I use all the available ways to search for market information and information, and talk to people at different levels to understand customer psychology and product feedback, and have a good idea of the rejection of the product."

"Thank you for sharing these experiences." Lotte continued to compliment.

Li Lao smiled, looked at Li Letian indifferently, and said, "Let's talk about the reason why you want to meet me, you asked me, it's definitely not so simple to compliment me." ”

Lotte also smiled, and Masasei said, "That's right, I do have something to ask for." ”

Li Lao spread his hands and motioned for Lotte to continue.

"At present, my company is developing, but the way has encountered a lot of bumps and obstacles, maybe I am developing too fast, maybe I have erected too many enemies, in short, I want to cooperate with you, I don't know if you can give me this opportunity."

Li Lao thought for a while and said: "You build a building, if the foundation is not good, no matter how strong it is, it will still collapse, I know a little about you, especially your rise, let me see me when I was young, what you did is very gratifying, but your development path is too smooth, so your foundation is unstable, such growth is not good for yourself." ”

"Please advise." Lotte arched his hand and said.

"You're like a white mouse, you're smart, you're highly educated, but you don't have the instinct to struggle hard and struggle to survive. I'm a brown mouse, and I may be an unteachable fellow, but I'm able to endure hardships and not be afraid of sacrifice; If one of my legs is stuck in a clip, then I will not hesitate to break that leg trapped in the clip in order to get out. ”

Lotte fell into deep thought, Li Lao waited for a moment and continued: "The predicament you are facing now makes it difficult for you to choose, and because of your character, stubbornness, and persistence, your unstable foundation mistakes are going farther and farther, if you still can't look at your own problems now, I think, there is no need for cooperation between us." ”

"I see, thank you for meeting, this is my gift to you." As he spoke, Lotte took out a piece of paper from his pocket, put it on the table and pushed it in front of him, then stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your advice, thank you very much." ”

Lotte was about to leave after speaking, Li Lao was a little dumbfounded, picked up the paper on the table and looked at it, and when Lotte hadn't walked out, he suddenly asked:

"What is this?"

Lotte stopped and said: "I heard that your stomach and intestines have not been very good, so I chose a special gift, which is a secret recipe in Hua Tuo's suicide note, relieving the stomach and intestines, and has the effect of maintaining health and prolonging life. ”

After speaking, Lotte opened the office door, Li Lao was stunned for a second, put the secret recipe on the table, and said when Lotte walked out, "Don't you want to fight for it again?" ”

Lotte stopped and said indifferently: "Actually, I learned a lot from meeting you today, and I think I have the confidence to deal with the current crisis." ”

Li Lao smiled and said, "That's right, you are indeed very proud, come back, our chat is not over yet." ”

Lotte stood for half a second, but still walked back to the house and sat down, Li Lao said:

"There is a saying in Zhou Yi, Tianxingjian, a gentleman is self-improving, this sentence is very suitable for me, you also have the character of self-improvement, but I want to send you the next sentence, the terrain is kun, the gentleman is virtuous."

"What do you mean by that?" Lotte asked.

"The overall meaning is that a gentleman must know how to conform to the way of heaven and know how to carry tolerance." Li Lao said: "Your character makes you very determined, but in your character, there is a lack of tolerance, or in other words, you lack tolerance, through what you do, it is not difficult to see that you are still too young and vigorous, lack of a little bit of mature thinking, tolerance and tolerance, is what you need to learn the most now." ”

"I do my best." Lotte promises.

Li Lao no longer beat around the bush and said: "You said before that you have the confidence to deal with the crisis in front of you, tell me about it." ”

"A strong man breaks his wrist, and he makes a decision immediately." Lotte said.

"Actually, it's not a wise thing to do." Li Lao smiled bitterly: "Judging from the current stock market, it is indeed feasible for a strong man to break his wrist, but if he is too decisive, it will lead to a loss of the whole game, or in other words, let the opponent seize the opportunity, it will be difficult for you to win back this game." ”

Lotte said: "I understand, but for my current situation, the most ideal solution is to break the kettle, secretly Chen Cang, and preserve your strength." ”

"Yes, haven't you considered that the enemy could find out and attack the pond fish?" Li Lao asked.

Lotte said: "I have considered this problem from all aspects, with your influence and wealth, the other party still wants to chase and fight, if it hurts your big fish, I am afraid that the price borne by the other party is immeasurable, besides, you are not a pond fish yourself, you are a shark, if they can really hit you, it seems that no one in this world can do it." ”

"That's true, there is no business in the world that will target non-profit targets, but some people are not included."

Li Lao's words made Lotte frown, it is not difficult to hear from today's conversation, he knows the inside story, that is, he knows the game between Li Lotian and Yu-Gi-Oh, but Lotte has not seen it yet, he is on Wang Fei's side, or on Yu-Gi-Oh's side.

Thinking of this, Lotte decided, took the risk to speak, and asked, "Elder Li, are you willing to help me through the crisis?" ”

After a long time, Li Lao said indifferently: "I'll talk about the content of cooperation." ”

This is agreed, and for the next two days, Li Letian stayed in this villa, and the two chatted for two days, and no one knew the content of the talks, but the matter spread quickly.

……

Early Monday morning, Lotte drove back to the Lee Building, and as soon as he entered the hall, everyone immediately gathered around and asked a lot of questions.

Lotte didn't answer, but said indifferently: "I'll know when the stock market opens." ”

Although I didn't get the right answer, it was not difficult to see that it was going well through Rakuten's confident expression.

When they returned to their offices, everyone sat in front of their computers and stared at the stock market information, and everyone wanted to know what kind of action the stock market was doing today.

Finally, the tense stock market opened, everyone waited with bated breath, the stock information was still a depressed green, watching the large-scale decline without any vitality, everyone's mood was extremely heavy.

"Could it be that Lotte failed?"

However, they didn't know that Lotte returned to the office and began to be busy, turning on the computer without looking at the Shanghai Index, but opening to the Hong Kong Index page, after a large number of documents, one after another calling, when the stock market opened, Lotte smashed all the money on hand on Cheung Kong Industrial.

With the passage of time, close to noon, Lotte picked up the phone and dialed out, saying:

"Yun Fang, can you still find a way to borrow money, no matter what the method is, how much to borrow?"

"In a hurry?"

"It's very urgent, I have less than 3% of the funds on hand now, and I am still far from the goal."

"I'll try my best, smash the pot and sell iron, and I'll make it up for you."

"Don't, make up money while preserving your strength, don't smash all your money into it."

"Oh, I see."

Hung up the phone, Lotte silently calculated in his heart, the funds that gold members can mobilize, plus all the deposits in hand, the money that everyone pooled, all added together, and actually acquired this stock, I really didn't expect it, stocks, it's really a bottomless abyss.

"By the way, the funds that can be mobilized by gold members, in addition to me, isn't there Zeng Wenrou?"

Lotte suddenly thought of something, picked up the phone and called Zeng Wenrou, and said, "Senior sister, come to my office." ”

Zeng was gently stunned for half a second, got up and rushed out of the office quickly, and saw Li Letian after a while.
