Chapter 899: The Way of the Artist
Wow......
Gu Xiaofan's series of answers not only surprised Laven, but even Liu Shishi, He Tiejun and others who were sitting in front of the TV couldn't help but be a little surprised, and He Tiejun couldn't help but sigh: "This Xiaofan...... When did you memorize the American law~ Do you still memorize so completely? ”
Although it was a bit surprising at the beginning of the confrontation, it was normal for Gu Xiaofan to dare to participate in the TV debate so he was prepared, and everyone guessed that he must have conducted pre-response training for the questions that the other party might ask. [No pop-up novel network]
Laven thought the same way, so he began to use his 30 years of experience in the taxi industry to attack "Didi Dache" from all angles, from the driver's insurance, to the vehicle's warranty terms, and the Ministry of Transportation's control of local roads.
He believes that no matter how comprehensive Gu Xiaofan's preparation is, it is impossible to cover everything.
But the fact was that he was shocked, he asked all the questions, and every point of attack was beautifully countered by Gu Xiaofan, often he cited a regulation, Gu Xiaofan replied to 3 corresponding regulations as the first response, and even when explaining the question of "whether Didi Dache should manage the driver's vehicle", Gu Xiaofan directly found 9 relevant regulations to explain the legality of "Didi Dache is not responsible for vehicle maintenance".
The more everyone listened, the more surprised they became, and after fifteen minutes of confrontation, Latin was already sweating profusely, and he was completely beaten and disarmed...... The host "Pulsatilla" Chris frowned together...... It's a helpless look.
Allen, who was in the studio, looked at it, couldn't help but clench his fists tightly, and only scolded in a low voice: "This idiot CEO, how can he not even say Gu Xiaofan, a layman......"
In fact, how did he know that not only CEO Lavin, but also the legal counsel team composed of 7 lawyers behind the camera in the live broadcast room were all scared by Gu Xiaofan's performance and soaked in cold sweat, and they all had the same thought in their hearts: "If this guy goes to be a lawyer, their jobs will definitely not be saved......"
Whether it is memory, logical ability, or language organization ability, Gu Xiaofan has shown a superb level that makes all lawyers ashamed......
How did they know that Gu Xiaofan used the system screen in his mind to directly call up the relevant information, as well as Sirui's direct intelligent analysis, which is equivalent to an "open-book exam", if you can use laws and regulations to debate with him, it is equivalent to a human being comparing computing power with a computer, which is not a level of competition......
On the way to the debate, the voting on the official website of fox TV continued, Gu Xiaofan's support rate, from 789 percent at the beginning, directly rose to 857 percent, netizens from all over the United States exclaimed: "This Gu Xiaofan is too powerful, he is simply a legal dictionary" "Isn't this guy Chinese, how can he be more familiar with federal regulations than my law school master?" "Haha, Gu Xiaofan is so cool~"
Watching a 23-year-old young man who should have no experience in TV debate and legal knowledge beat a taxi industry leader in his 50s to the ground on the TV screen, making the audience in front of the TV who supports "Didi Daxi" feel enthusiastic.
At this time, everyone knew that Gu Xiaofan returned with a big victory in the first round, and the host had no choice but to end Lavin's speech in a hurry, and led the topic to the Minister of Transportation Sanders.
This old Republican is a righteous and upright politician in the whole United States, who was once scolded by the public for raising the security indicators of planes in the United States after 911, but after investigating and punishing all kinds of terrorists who want to enter the United States in the following years, it has proved to be the most crucial step in improving the security of the United States.
And Sanders's resume can also be said to be completely flawless, from the lowest civilian background, with a perfect family, the most orthodox Anglo-Saxon values, all the Americans who know him, when they mention him, think of conservative, selfless, and just.
There is no doubt that he is one of the most respected politicians in the United States, and the wrinkled and gray-haired Secretary of Transportation, without any nonsense, looked directly at Gu Xiaofan and asked his question seemingly casually:
"Mr. Gu, I want to ask you what is the ultimate purpose of doing the Didi taxi project?"
Everyone could see that in the eyes of this respected Minister of Communications, he looked down on a businessman like Gu Xiaofan at all.
But Gu Xiaofan didn't care about the disdainful attitude of the Minister of Communications, he knew that those were just the appetizers of this debate, and now it was the real competition, and today's battle was not a contest of eloquence and resourcefulness at all, but a competition on another level.
So, he said from the bottom of his heart in a very sincere tone:
"Now for people all over the world, the difficulty of taking a taxi is a very common phenomenon, I hope to be able to improve this, I hope that those passengers who have urgent matters, really need help, can easily get on the bus at any time, do not need to be detoured, do not have to face deception, I also hope that taxi drivers can become a decent job, with their own hard work to improve their lives, not just live at the bottom of the society forever, this is the ultimate goal of my Didi taxi."
However, Gu Xiaofan's sincere words did not impress Sanders, for this long-standing minister, he had heard too many beautiful words.
"Do you know, there was originally a small supermarket next to our town, he sold grilled chicken wings for $2 a piece, and soon after, Wal-Mart came, and at first Wal-Mart sold the same amount of grilled chicken wings for $15, which was really cheap~ The residents of our town liked Wal-Mart very much, so in less than half a year, the small supermarket was forced to close down, and a year later, guess what? Walmart's grilled chicken wings are selling for $4 and even the sale costs $25......"
After Sanders finished telling this story, he looked at Gu Xiaofan:
"I have seen all the companies that do business at a loss, and the ultimate goal is only one purpose, that is, for the new monopoly and to obtain greater profits, Mr. Gu Xiaofan, I would like to ask you, when your Didi taxi sweeps the taxi voice through various preferential policies, can you guarantee the interests of customers and drivers? The ultimate profiteer is an ordinary person? Or are you a business genius? Can you guarantee that you won't end up monopolizing and won't drastically increase the current taxi prices? Won't you exploit the interests of the American people, transfer to China? ”
Chen Ke'er in front of the TV listened to the whole body trembling...... The real killing of the federal government has come...... The first round is just a "skill" struggle, and this second round is a "Tao" competition.
At this level, all the debating techniques, regulations, logic do not work...... Only those who truly stand on the same side as the American people will win, and this is the death hole of all foreign entrepreneurs in the United States......
Faced with this question, Gu Xiaofan on the TV was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly laughed in front of the national audience, and everyone was stunned, this guy was asked on the spot and collapsed, right?
In the midst of this sudden burst of laughter, Sanders, as the secretary of transportation, was furious, and he felt an unprecedented humiliation.
He grimaced and asked in a tone full of anger, "Mr. Gu, is there anything ridiculous?" ”
Gu Xiaofan stopped laughing and replied solemnly: "Since I said that it is to change people's lives, why should I raise the price of people's travel costs?" ”
You don't raise prices after the monopoly? Don't you want to make money anymore?
From Sanders's incomprehensible eyes, Gu Xiaofan understood his doubts, and said:
"I do everything, whether it's making movies and television, or doing Didi Dache, it's for the sake of making people's lives better, that's all there is to it, if you want, I would like to invite the Federal Department of Transportation to participate in the Didi Dache project, and while maintaining our operating costs, the Federal Ministry of Transportation will regulate the pricing power of this project, and I will give up all related interests."
This is not something that belongs to me in the first place, so let those people at the bottom be able to share the beauty of this future world.
However, Gu Xiaofan's answer not only made Sanders, but also all the directors and fathers of Abel Warner, as well as Hollywood and the taxi industry, and even those who follow this matter in the federal government, fall into deeper confusion.
This young man from China has created such a business miracle on his own, and after the thing is done, he does not want credit or profit, why did he do it?
This is a difficult question for all of them to understand, who will do what is not beneficial?
Only Sanders looked at the man in front of him, as if he felt that he was special, this young man who had built a legendary technology company with the power of one person, but was willing to hand over the greatest interests and honor in his hands to the federal government, and gave up the company's profits just for the sake of those taxi drivers and passengers who did not know him?
Sanders was silent for a full minute on live TV, and began to think seriously, he wanted to solve this difficult mystery, wanted to understand the strange person in front of him, and wanted to know why he did this.
It wasn't until after the host's urging that he reacted and he found the answer...... There is only one possibility, and that is that this person does not belong to the realm of politics and business at all, and that his innocent and bright gaze is only found in artists with clean and pure souls, and in this world, these people all possess a rare quality of integrity.
And for people like them, money and power are not worth mentioning, and they have greater pursuits......
"I understand, if you really plan to do this, our Ministry of Transportation is willing to cooperate with Didi Dache."
Sanders, a respected politician, said something that shocked everyone during the live camera.
Hey~ Minister of Transportation, aren't you the opposite? How can you betray the revolution with thick eyebrows and big eyes~
