"Yo, Uncle Cai is here, you are really ...... now"

Well, it's okay, this is Ren Lao Cai's territory, so Li Xiangping stopped in time and didn't say the word "rare guest".

Lao Cai didn't pay attention to these details, he picked up the chess game in front of Li Xiangping with great interest:

"Yo, Da Li vs. Xiao Li's chess game, Xiangping is studying the two of them?"

"Well, isn't the main thing to fight with these two next, so let's take a look now."

"Haha, okay, it's time to take a look, Xiangping make persistent efforts and continue to suppress them, hehe, what do Koreans say about the three Li hegemony, they still have the face to say."

Li Xiangping smiled: "Hehe, Uncle Cai has so much confidence in me? ”

"Hahaha, that's of course," Lao Cai laughed: "How can I not have confidence in you......"

Looking at Lao Cai, who was laughing, Li Xiangping suddenly sighed, because he knew that Lao Cai's smile was real, and he was really confident in himself.

And his confidence is not the confidence of the elders in the younger generations, of course, not the confidence of the father-in-law in the son-in-law, but the confidence of a true chess fan in a professional chess player.

And this kind of confidence has also appeared in the Go world, for example, in the early Sino-Japanese Go Tournaments, Chinese chess fans had this kind of confidence in Lao Nie, and in the peak period of Li Canghao, then Korean chess fans should also have this kind of confidence in him.

Thinking of this, Li Xiangping smiled bitterly, and while Lao Cai was still laughing, he said to himself:

"Brother Ding'an, this kind of confidence that you have helped us Huaxia chess fans build up will make me feel a lot of pressure."

"Hehe, it's okay, Ding'an thinks it's a good thing to perceive a little pressure, you need to know that there is pressure to be motivated, if you want to go further, then you must start to learn to withstand pressure......"

"Stop, stop,"

At this moment, Li Xiangping suddenly felt that the social atmosphere in these years might not be good, do you see? Ren Lao Shi was originally a good ancient chess saint, but it has only been a few years, and he already likes to pour chicken soup so much.

Well, it was okay to pour chicken soup originally, but now he will only pour this vulgar chicken soup, so in the next moment, Li Xiangping decided not to communicate with Lao Shi, and it may be more comfortable to talk to Lao Cai.

"Why does Uncle Cai have time to come back now? Didn't you hear that your business is booming now, and you are ready to put up a few more production lines in other places? ”

"How do you know..... Hehe, did your dad tell you? I'm here for this to come back this time, well, this time the situation is a bit complicated, I have to consult your dad first, otherwise I don't know the bottom of my heart. ”

Li Xiangping nodded slightly, Lao Cai is in the building materials business, and now his main business is to have several cement production lines in Ji Province and Lu Province near the capital.

Now that SARS has just ended, the country's cement market is unusually hot, so hot that you may not be able to mention the goods with cash, Comrade Lao Cai is now carrying a sack to the bank to deposit money almost every day, so in this case, he wants to expand the scale of production at this time, and it is normal to go on a few more production lines.

However, there are two characteristics of his industry, the first is that after entering the new century, with the increasingly strict environmental protection standards, the investment scale of a cement production line is actually not small.

In the early days, a small soil cement production line could be about a few million or so large.

However, now, a new environmental protection production line, the minimum output is 2,000 tons per day, less than this production capacity of the country will not approve at all, and want to build such a production line, then from equipment to infrastructure, the scale of investment is also hundreds of millions.

The second characteristic of this industry, that is, the regionality of the cement industry is actually very strong, take Lao Cai as an example, he built a production line in Hebei Province or Shandong Province, can his cement be sold to the south? There is almost no such possibility, even if the quality and reputation of his products are good, there is almost no such possibility.

The reason is very simple, you must know that today, our country produces more than half of the world's cement, and the price of cement in the country is also very stable, so if you want to sell cement from the north to the south, you can't have any advantage in terms of freight.

It is precisely because of these two characteristics of this industry that industry bigwigs like Lao Cai, if they want to become bigger and stronger, they can only adopt a model similar to opening a "chain store", which means that it is impossible for him to build a super factory somewhere, and he must fully blossom, and if he wants to develop the market, he must go to the local area at least to build a production line nearby.

It is precisely because of the characteristics of this industry that the building materials industry, especially the cement industry, has become the earliest industry to implement mixed ownership in China.

The so-called "mixed ownership" is actually led by the State Building Materials Corporation to incorporate private bosses like Lao Cai across the country, and everyone partners to build production lines across the country.

Slightly different from other industries, that is, the national building materials general manager seems to have a relatively loose requirement for equity, and does not require absolute control of each production line, that is, in a certain cement plant, even if the private person occupies the majority, the state occupies the small head seems to be allowed.

Undoubtedly, this is of course different from the previous state-owned model, so it is called "mixed ownership".

Li Xiangping knew in his heart that Lao Cai went back to the capital to find his old man this time, and it was mostly because of this, because this kind of "mixed ownership" was still the only one in the building materials industry in these years, and for people like Lao Cai, anything related to "ownership" is a big deal.

And although the old man of Li Xiangping's family has come out to work alone now, he has been mixed in the system for so many years before, and there are iron buddies like Zhao Daokai's father, so it is normal for Lao Cai to think of finding such a friend for consultation.

Of course, although Li Xiangping has a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter, he will not talk to Lao Cai about such a topic. Think about it, who is Li Xiangping now? A dignified genius boy, the brightest supernova in the Go world, how could he talk to people about such mundane things.

Not only him, in fact, Lao Cai just said it so casually, and after he finished saying that, he no longer mentioned anything about the cement production line, but returned to Go.

It's just that for Go, of course, the two have nothing to talk about, and Lao Cai didn't say anything nutritious except for continuing to show his "lost confidence" and thinking that Li Xiangping would win against South Korea's big and small Li.

Well, but in the end, Comrade Cai's words seem to be a little nutritious:

"Okay Xiangping, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you to play music, by the way, I booked a room at the Jianguo Hotel just now, so I won't inform you separately, remember to come over for dinner in the evening."

Well, Comrade Lao Cai likes to invite guests to dinner, and Li Xiangping has known about his hobby for a long time, so he didn't care much about it at the beginning:

"Hehe, Uncle Cai has another treat, so what is the happy event this time?"

"Haha, this time is not a happy event, even a good thing or a bad move, I don't know now......"

Although Lao Cai said this, the joy and pride in the corners of his eyes could not be concealed:

"This time, it's my girl... That's right, it's Shanshan Cai......"

When he said this, Lao Cai didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he paused, and pretended to glance at Li Xiangping:

"This time, Shanshan doesn't know what shit luck she had, she passed a selection from their school and obtained the qualification of an exchange student."

Exchange student?

As a traverser, Li Xiangping is certainly no stranger to exchange students, anyway, in this era, schools like Cai Shanshan often engage in exchange students with schools in other countries.

"Hehe's amazing, exchange students are all here? That country? What school? ”

"England."

Lao Cai said the country, but did not say any schools, it is estimated that he also just came back, and did not remember the names of those foreign schools:

"Of course, it's a good thing to pass the assessment, but should you go? This is still a bit embarrassing, I heard that this exchange student is an exchange for a year, but Xiangping, you also know, Shanshan is as old as you, she is only 16 years old now, and she was thrown abroad for a whole year at her age? Xiangping: Do you think this is appropriate? ...... So no, I'll make an appointment with your dad and your Uncle Zhao tonight, and by the way, you and Aunt Liao, I'll ask you to help me refer to it. ”

The "Aunt Liao" in Lao Cai's mouth is Zhao Daokai's mother who is a scholar, and when she heard Lao Cai's happy chatter, Li Xiangping was slightly distracted.

In her last life, Cai Shanshan did go to the UK to study later, but that was after studying in China as an undergraduate, and she studied in China before, is it possible that she has even advanced this in this life?

Lao Cai finally ended chattering:

"Okay, I'm leaving, Xiangping and remember to come over later."

And Lao Cai's interruption, this seems to have affected Li Xiangping, and after he left for a while, Li Xiangping seemed to be a little unable to concentrate.

"Hehe Xiangping Xiaoyou, I think that girl is good, don't let people down."

As soon as Lao Shi's words came out, this scared Li Xiangping, he said in his heart that he really didn't regard himself as an outsider as a plug-in, and now he even wants to express his opinion on this kind of thing?

"Hehe, Brother Ding'an, do you really think that my daughter-in-law is good?"

"Of course," Shi Daqi said solemnly, "I have observed it several times, that Shanshan girl, she ......"

"What's wrong with her?"

"The way she looks at you, it's different from the others."

"Hahahaha....." Li Xiangping laughed:

"Then Brother Ding'an, let me ask you, why is it different? By the way, isn't it the same as the way the embroidered girl looks at you? ”

"This ......"

Hearing that Lao Shi was speechless, Li Xiangping smiled:

"Okay, Brother Ding'an, let's not mention this stubble, it's not that I said you, when it comes to playing chess, I serve you, but in this regard..... Hehe, don't talk about it, Brother Ding'an will help me look at the chess game again, and see if there is anything new in Goryeo Erli. ”
