Maidong Music has half a foot into the door of the NASDAQ, and other companies under the group are not idle, and Tencent and Aiche.com both chose to land on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It's just that one is on the main board, and the other is the GEM.

Aiche.com plans to raise HK$180 million publicly, while Tencent will raise HK$2.6 billion.

Except for ants, everyone sharpens their knives to pigs and sheep, ready to borrow the thunder of the capital market to arouse the fire of the Internet.

Shanda, Jiucheng, Baidu, and Ctrip have all submitted IPO applications for the NASDAQ, and 2004 is destined to be an extraordinary year for the domestic Internet industry, and all Internet practitioners have begun to stir up again.

At this moment, Chen Bo was called to the Pengcheng Grand Theater by Li Shusen to participate in the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the founding of Pengcheng.

25 years old, one year older than Chen Bo, this small fishing village has now become a metropolis, carrying the dreams of countless people. This is also the largest immigration city in the history of China, and the speed is rare in the world, also known as "Pengcheng speed".

Chen Bo was forced to make a short impromptu speech, he is one of the beneficiaries of Pengcheng's development, and he is also a representative of the post-80s entrepreneurs, Li Shusen is to take him as a typical establishment, it is better than being robbed of the limelight by the Shanghai market. Liang Yu had planned to recommend him as an outstanding young man is not a hidden news, although the two are more acquainted, but it is always not beautiful to let others pick peaches.

In such days, it is inevitable to sing praises of virtue, this is the scene, and it is also the rule of the game, and you can't be presumptuous. Chen Bo still respects Li Shusen very much, and he has indeed done a lot of good for him, and he has not lived up to expectations.

"I heard that your kid has been very wild outside lately." After the speeches were over and the song and dance show began, Li Shusen said to Chen Bo, who was sitting next to him.

"You know everything?"

"Nonsense, is there anything I don't know? But you did the right thing, our entrepreneurs have to change their low-key and weak character when they finally get out, otherwise they will be easily bullied. If you don't make trouble, they won't take you seriously, everyone likes to pinch soft persimmons. Li Shusen sighed.

"But lately, the domestic media has not been very friendly." Chen Bo said worriedly, "I spent my own money on their, why do you still treat me as a loser?" ”

took the time to flip through the mainstream reports, and the media criticized the successive large-scale acquisitions, and even promoted that Ant Public Welfare is for charity. And netizens are full of praise and polarization, which is not a favorable signal.

"Be yourself, what do you care about them?" Li Shusen glanced at him and said, "But the bigger you get, some people have ideas, it's certain." ”

"The kid doesn't understand so many truths, and he asked the mayor to teach me." Chen Bo knew in his heart that there was something in the words, so he said sincerely.

"Don't get involved in politics at home, make good connections, and don't take sides. This is the most important point to save your life! Li Shusen said solemnly.

"What about you and Mayor Liang?"

"Even we have to keep our distance! I see you as a nephew, you have ideas, you have momentum, you are the hope of the country, I don't want you to get into the quagmire of struggle. ”

Li Shusen's words made Chen Bo a little confused, but he had to listen,

"What about abroad?"

"Don't offend the interests of the country."

"Oh, I see." Chen Bo nodded, this is the rhythm of someone giving him eye medicine, either it is not reported, or a good thing becomes a bad thing, it is really two mouths of the media, if you have milk, you are a mother.

"Someone may come to you in the next two days, don't be stubborn, don't be stupid." Li Shusen said again.

"Who? What for? Chen Bo was surprised.

"You'll know then, it's not a bad thing." Li Shusen said again, "Also, Mo Yuanqi is not simple, I heard that you still have shares in his company, don't keep it if you can get rid of it." ”

Today, the amount of information is a little large, Chen Bo can't react for a while, Li Shusen shouldn't have a very close relationship with Lao Mo, right? Why do you say such admonishments? What role does he play in this, is it a lobbyist or is it genuinely good for him? It was confusing for him.

When he wanted to ask questions again, Li Shusen's attention was already focused on the stage, and he didn't give him this opportunity at all, so he had to give up.

finally got to the end of the performance, and originally wanted to get up and leave, but was told that there was a simple celebration party, so he could only obediently follow.

The theater is not far from the hotel, and most of the people present are provincial and municipal military and political officials, as well as local entrepreneurs. Some of the cocktail parties organized in China are basically liquor, and they are not afraid of getting drunk, while foreign ones are mainly champagne and white wine.

"Xiao Chen, let me introduce you." Li Shusen pulled him out in a corner, walked up to a middle-aged woman with an extraordinary temperament and said, "Needless to say, you know who this is, right?" You are still fellow countrymen, hurry up and call sister. ”

"Hello, Sister Pang Li, I grew up listening to your songs." Chen Bo knew that Li Shusen was helping him pave the way, so he immediately climbed up the pole, but as soon as the words came out, he regretted it, this woman was very taboo about her age, and hurriedly added, "Sorry, I will punish myself for a momentary mistake!" He raised his glass and drank it down, and the hot sensation began to rise from his stomach and surged up to his throat.

"It's okay, I'm not a screen idol, it's normal for you to grow up listening to my songs at your age, you can't stop others from telling the truth!" Pang Li responded with a disappreciative smile, and said, "I am a native of Caozhou, and I studied in an art school in Qizhou, what about you?" ”

"I am from Linzi, in the mountains east of Mount Tai." Chen Bo replied.

"That's really a fellow countryman, no wonder I felt quite cordial when I saw you speaking on stage just now." Pang Li has a plump figure and an elegant temperament, and she has the kind of style she talks about, and she is also very easy-going.

"Your sister Pang is also very keen on public welfare, and every year she will take time to comfort children with AIDS." Li Shusen added on the side.

"Great, Sister Pang! Our company's Ant Charity Project lacks caring people like you to advocate for social attention to charity. Chen Bo said in a timely manner, "I would like to take the liberty of inviting Sister Pang to be the charity ambassador of our ant public welfare, although this ant is small, but the energy that gathers together to explode is huge." ”

"Is that good? I just did what I could. Pang Li hesitated.

"It's not good, Xiao Chen's company Lao Xie also appreciates it very much, and he mentioned it to me when we had a meeting in Yanjing last month. He envies that we have a company like Ant in Pengcheng, and I also envy Ali in Hangzhou. ”

"Okay, I'm afraid I'll do a bad job and cause trouble."

"I think you're more than enough to be a charity ambassador for the United Nations." Chen Bo and Li Shusen sang and sang in harmony to bring her to a high position, and a national singer joined in, which really helped the development of Ant Charity in China.

"I saw that you were quite honest just now, but now you are flamboyant." Pang Li scolded with a smile, "Since I recognize you as a fellow countryman, don't be polite to me in the future, what you, you, yours, listen to it." ”

"You're my sister, I'll listen to you!"

"It's like being a younger brother."

"I still have a reluctant request, in two days it will be our company's annual meeting, if Sister Pang is free, she will go over and sing a song? Let's listen to the sound of nature, how about it? "Chen Bo is beating snakes with sticks, since everyone is in Pengcheng, he is in a hurry to leave.

"Then I'll have to arrange it, and you know I have to listen to the organization."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your call." Chen Bo took out his business card and handed it to her, there were no bells and whistles written on various positions, only the words Pangu Group in China. In foreign countries, only the name and phone number are printed, and the awesome people will never use the position on the business card to show themselves.

Since he is a fellow countryman, he always has to talk about some local feelings, and Li Shusen's maneuvering from the middle is also very speculative.

"This is one of the good karma I am talking about, I am more familiar with Xie Ping in eastern Zhejiang, you don't want to learn from those unstylish businessmen who give gifts." Pang Li left under the pretext of leaving, Chen Bo also said goodbye, Li Shusen uncharacteristically sent him out of the venue, and spoke to him earnestly in a corner where no one was.

"Am I such a vulgar person? Do you think I've ever sent you anything? Chen Bo smiled, "If you care about me, I will move out of Pengcheng immediately tomorrow, and I won't come to die." ”

"Even if you know each other, money is a good thing, it can make you rich and drunk, but it can also ruin half of your life of hard work. Can money achieve your ideals? Now I don't have to worry about food and drink, I have a house to live in, I have a car to drive, and my children's educational resources are also the best. Why do you want to do so much? Li Shusen sighed, "Some people are just not satisfied, but I am easily satisfied, and when I retire and look at the city that was once under my governance is better than New York and Milan, I will be able to sleep with peace of mind." ”

"You're so noble, I can't do that, so I can only be a merchant who smells of copper."

"You are pretending to be confused, and there are many kinds of merchants, some of whom are profiteers, and some of whom are good merchants. Everyone has a rod and scale in their hearts, and it depends on you who can't help but hold the scale. ”

"Listen to your words, it's better than ten years of study, and the kid has been taught." Chen Bo made a fake way.

"Just after you finished speaking, you stinky and poor. Go back and think about it, don't take it seriously, no one will tell you this except me. Li Shusen patted him on the shoulder, said solemnly, turned around and returned to the reception, the arcs were staggered, and the conversation and laughter were lively.

Which one is the real Li Shusen? Chen Bo couldn't find a definite answer for a while.

ps: Don't say it thoroughly, it's still a good friend, be careful not to comment on the identity of the woman who appears here, and I want to write a few more chapters about the green onions.
