Chapter 239: The Rat Society
"Hello Zhou Sheng!" Huang Er was stunned, he didn't expect to meet Zhou Shuo here. In front of Jiang Daqiao, who didn't know the truth, of course he could pretend to be cold unscrupulously. But in front of Zhou Shuo, who has a clear track record about him, he doesn't have that confidence.
Zhou Shuo nodded to him indifferently, turned around and stretched out his hand to Jiang Daqiao and said, "Mayor Jiang, the private room has been booked, please go upstairs." ”
"Okay, Mr. Huang, please too." Jiang Daqiao turned sideways and let Huang Er walk in front.
Zhou Shuo frowned, this was indeed his miscalculation. I didn't expect Jiang Daqiao, as the mayor of a city, to really fall into Huang Er's way so easily. He followed behind Jiang Daqiao, beckoned over to a waiter and said a few words, and then followed.
A group of people took the elevator to the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the Xiucheng Hotel, although the Xiucheng Hotel is the best hotel in Xiucheng, but the consumption is not low. It was lunchtime, but it was sparsely seated on the third floor. When the waiter at the hotel saw Zhou Shuo, he hurriedly ran over to serve. In the private room where Lu was booked, the food and wine were already served early, and the banquet could be held just by waiting for someone to come.
Although there was one more Huang Er, the waiter was not busy. Skillfully added a set of chopsticks and chairs to the table, and then brought cool wet towels to wipe the faces and hands of the guests.
After such a set of processes, a young and beautiful waiter was left in the corner of the room, and the others came out in a row.
"Hey, what a good taste of money!" Jiang Daqiao sighed comfortably, and wiped his face with a cool towel, as if the whole person was in a lot of energy: "If it weren't for Principal Zhou's treat." My salary can't afford to eat at the Xiucheng Hotel. ”
Zhou Shuo shook his head with a smile and said, "Mayor Jiang said that anyone can come to the Xiucheng Hotel." However, the Beishan Hotel used by the municipal party committee and the municipal government for hospitality. We can't find the door when we want to get in! ”
This Huang Erzhen TM is a scourge! Zhou Shuo secretly hated in his heart, Jiang Daqiao was not a greedy person in the past. The two have dated so many times. It's the first time I've heard Jiang Daqiao say something like this. I don't know if it's because it's like this, or if it's the idea that Huang Er provoked.
It's not wrong to be greedy for money, I'm afraid that Jiang Daqiao will sit in the position of the mayor and take a fork in the road in a thought. Zhou Shuo's head turned around, and he said tentatively: "Why don't I let this Xiucheng Hotel reserve a private room for Mayor Jiang, how about when you come?" ”
Jiang Daqiao was stunned, and seemed to be a little moved. However, after struggling, he still shook his head with a forced smile and said, "I appreciate Principal Zhou's kindness, but I still don't need to." I'm afraid the impact will not be good. ”
Whew, Zhou Shuo was relieved when he heard his words. Anyway, Jiang Daqiao still has a bottom line. The key is still this Huang Er, the rat will have this set of demagogic skills, if you are not vigilant, it will not be too easy.
"Come, come, eat!" In order to hide his embarrassment, Jiang Daqiao took the initiative to open up.
"Teacher Huang, I'll toast you!" Jiang Daqiao raised his glass. First of all, he saluted Huang Er: "You are really good in this class, now that society is developing so fast, why don't you give yourself a chance when you are laid off?" I have a lot of people, and the spirit is different after class! You're training. But it helped our city government a lot! ”
Although Huang Er is doing well in the magic capital, he is still a character who can't be on the stage in the final analysis. A leader at the level of Jiang Daqiao, let alone so kind. I'm afraid I've never seen it a few times. Although he was silent on his face, his heart was a little fluttering.
It's no wonder that Jiang Daqiao is not strong-willed or has little knowledge. In the 20 years since the reform and opening up, everyone's hearts have been like a mirror, turning the left light to the right. Under Jiang Daqiao's ears and eyes, no matter how firm his belief is, he is a little confused. I heard some specious theories out of the blue. It's normal to have a little grass in your heart. Consciousness and form are useless and useless, but without it, China's economy has developed. It is useful to say that it is useful, but after talking about it for decades and suddenly not talking about it, there is nothing to regulate people's behavior.
Not only Jiang Daqiao, but in the past few decades, there have been some public servants who believe in Buddhism and religion, not to mention those who believe in money and sex, but few of them believe in Marxism-Leninism. In the final analysis, isn't it a vacancy in consciousness and form, and being taken advantage of by others?
Well, to get back to the point, these things are not in the category that Zhou Shuo can consider. Even if he is a reborn person, he may not be much better than Jiang Daqiao in this regard.
Huang Er took a sip of wine, felt a little confident in his heart, and said warmly: "Mayor Jiang is too polite, but my training is actually not the most useful for laid-off workers." If you want me to say, you can organize them and set up a direct selling organization. In the hands of these laid-off workers, which one is not pinching tens of thousands of yuan of seniority buyout costs. Like the current situation in Xiucheng, it is completely possible to concentrate on doing big things. ”
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Jiang Daqiao's eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly: "Please also ask Mr. Huang to talk about it." ”
After speaking, Jiang Daqiao poured wine into Huang Er's wine glass and looked at him eagerly.
"Ahem, Mayor Jiang." Zhou Shuo interjected in the middle, stopped Huang Er's words and said: "This direct selling is not a good thing, and the state is currently working on legislative management, so let's not get involved." ”
"What do you say, Zhou Sheng." Huang Er said dissatisfied: "Starting to legislate is not legislating, not to mention that there are more direct selling companies in the south, how many people rely on it to make a fortune, why is it not a good thing in the north?" ”
Coincidentally, the country's first law on pyramid schemes was not promulgated until September 1995. Before that, at least what Huang Er said now was not a lie. Moreover, it was not until at least 1998 that China generally realized the dangers of pyramid schemes and tended to ban them by legislation outright.
Zhou Shuo disdains to debate with him, well, in terms of eloquence, he is really not his opponent. He went straight to the middle palace and said to Jiang Daqiao: "Mayor Jiang, as soon as September this year, our country will legislate to regulate direct selling activities, and it is very risky to do this now." ”
"Legislation is just a good opportunity for the development of direct selling, knock out some of the ones that do not meet the requirements of the market, eliminate some of the weak capital, and then there is an opportunity for the development of the market!" Huang Er agitated like a reed tongue, and also turned the muzzle of the cannon and bombarded the Jiang Bridge.
Zhou Shuo pursed his lips and was about to continue to refute, but was stopped by Gao Mo beside him. He looked at Jiang Daqiao and introduced himself: "Hello Mayor Jiang, I am Gao Mo, who is responsible for the investment and operation of the student fund of Fanhan Group. ”
Without waiting for Jiang Daqiao to react, he took out a ballpoint pen from his pocket and drew a pyramid shape on the napkin. While adding content to the top, he said: "Regarding direct selling, in fact, it was called MLM in China at the beginning. His origins were founded in 1964 by an American in California. ”
In eight years by 1972, the man had grown from a few hundred thousand dollars to $250 million. So how did he develop? This graphic can explain this very well. Gao Mo wrote down formulas on the pyramid shape, and then filled in the numbers one by one: "Look at the pyramid scheme, it is called the rat club in the bend. What is the rat club? Because once it is introduced, it cannot be completely eradicated. Man's greed is unlimited, and the end result of this expansion is the complete halt of production in the whole society, the collapse of order, and the destruction of the economy, because all wealth is concentrated in the hands of a very small number of people at the top of the pyramid......"
In a few words, Gao Mo clearly explained the operation of the rat club to Xiangjiang Bridge in simple terms. Although this thing looks beautiful, unless the organizational hierarchy is strictly controlled, it will definitely become a time bomb in society driven by greed.
Jiang Daqiao is just a ghost, it doesn't mean that he is in arrears of IQ. With decades of political experience, he easily understood Gao Mo's instructions. Think about it, once the resources available for the development of the rat society are exhausted, it is self-evident what will happen next.
As soon as Gomo's explanation ended, there was a knock on the door of the private room. Behind the waiter, Zhou Shuo's assistant secretary Dongfang Ke rushed over with a document bag and sweating profusely.
"Principal Zhou, this is the information you want." Dongfang Ke didn't even have time to wipe the sweat, so he handed the document bag in his hand to Zhou Shuo.
"Alright, sit down and take a breath." Zhou Shuo asked someone to add a chair to him, opened the file bag first, and looked at it carefully.
"Mayor Jiang, this is Mr. Huang's information in the bend, I think you should take a look." Zhou Shuo pushed the stack of documents in the document bag towards the Jiang Bridge.
Under Huang Er's dead expression, Jiang Daqiao silently flipped through the documents, and then put them back in the file bag.
"Principal Zhou, let's put this document here for me first." Jiang Daqiao didn't wait for Zhou Shuo to express his position, and put the document bag into his purse. Then he picked up his wine glass, stood up and raised his glass to Zhou Shuo and said, "If it weren't for Principal Zhou, I would have almost made a big mistake, I will toast you." ”
"Huang Er returned the money I invited to the city, and it is my fault to say that there is a mistake." Zhou Shuo hurriedly stood up and bumped into Jiang Daqiao.
"Alright, let's turn the page." Jiang Daqiao drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, he didn't have the face to blame Zhou Shuo. For the prestige of the mayor, this matter can only be revealed like this.
Zhou Shuo also took a sip of the wine in the cup and lit up the bottom of the glass. Then he dragged Gao Mo next to him and formally introduced Jiang Daqiao: "Mayor Jiang, this Gao Mo is the key person in dealing with the problem of laid-off workers. He is a former investment manager at Chong Hing Bank in Hong Kong and has a keen interest in small-scale entrepreneurship. If we want to stabilize the living conditions of laid-off workers, we still have to listen to his plan first. ”
"Okay, please take a seat!" Jiang Daqiao cheered up and listened: "I used to treat weasels as immortals, but I didn't know that this was the real god!" (To be continued......)
