Chapter 135: Tea or Wine
Everyone stopped clinking glasses in their hands and looked at Ding Yachuan in unison.
Ding Yachuan hesitated slightly, and said: "Before drinking this glass of wine, I would like to take the liberty of asking you, what is the purpose of investing in the establishment of this foundation?" β
Once this question is raised, it is like a basin of cold water that extinguishes everyone's enthusiasm. Everyone slowly put down the wine glasses in their hands and began to think calmly, what is their real purpose?
For a while, the Black Panther Arena was so quiet that you could hear a pin dropping.
"Let me start with my own purpose, and that's just me!" Zhou Lijun broke the silence, "How did I get started, others don't know very well, but the old dragon master knows the roots." I have loved playing since I was a child, and it was because of my passion for basketball that I invested in Feiyang Club, but I didn't expect this small basketball club to become the starting point of my career! Whenever I encounter any difficulties in my career, when I think of the energy of working the court, there is no mountain of flames that I can't pass! Over the years, my business has been from Qingshan to Beijing, but I will never forget that my 'Ben' is in this basketball. β
"As for money, it's just a string of numbers to me now, and it's just an extra zero to add a zero to that string of numbersβvulgar, not very interesting. If you can work with everyone to get this 'Blue Club' up, it can be regarded as this wish! β
After Zhou Lijun finished speaking, he turned his head to see that everyone was still silent, "Come on, you all talk about it!" It doesn't matter, you can say whatever you want. Don't talk about it in front of your face and behind your back. Besides, let's let Mr. Ding preside over this stall, and people can't sit in this 'bottomless sedan chair'! So Boss Lin, are you going to talk about it first? β
Lin Yisheng pondered for a moment and said with a wry smile: "As for me, at most, I am a down-and-out rich second generation. But it was also because of basketball that I saw the hope of revitalizing my family! I can't compare to Dong Chou, I don't have such a deep background as him, nor do I have such great feelings and ambitions as him. It's just that now I'm eating at this arena. Since I have entered this industry, I naturally hope that it can develop better, treat the market a little more, and I can make more money and pay off the bank's 8 million loans earlier. β
It turns out that this is not a profitable deal! Xiao Li of the garment factory is now full of remorse. Everyone is a lot of people, and it doesn't matter if they use millions to play tickets, but their own 500,000 are all sewn out with a needle and a thread! He hesitated: "I just want to make a little fortune with you, if I had known this, how dare I play with you like this!" What, bosses, is it too late for me to quit now? β
Coach Du Bin squeezed him away with one shoulder and said loudly: "Although the 80,000 yuan I want to invest is all my belongings, if I want to keep my club as it is, it is estimated that I will not be able to hold on for a year or two." Anyway, it's going to be a doom sooner or later, so I might as well come here and give it a go! Whether you drink porridge or eat meat next, it can be regarded as giving me a good time! β
"Hehe, Mr. Du, don't be so pessimistic! Let's rationally analyze it, judging from China's current economic development form, the private sector does have the ability to leverage the sports industry. In the United States, there have indeed been such success stories. So I feel like even if it's a gamble, it's a big gamble. I'm very optimistic about this! Tom said politely, and the court returned to its previous calm.
Fan Jinsong and others originally had reservations when they subscribed for shares, although they didn't know in what direction things would develop next, but with Zhou Lijun's big tree covering, Old Man Long holding it, and Ding Yachuan, who was refreshing, in charge there, according to the overall situation, they would not lose to the bottom. Taking a step back, even if they lose all that investment, it won't hurt them. So, the rest of the people continue to choose to remain silent.
"That's right! Tell each other the bottom, so that Mr. Ding can do things well! Zhou Lijun said with a big grin, "Okay, if you want to quit now, you can return it immediately, anyway, the money hasn't been in place yet." Oh, Boss Lin, if you really can't do it, you will have less funds and half of them! β
Xiao Li listened to Tom's analysis, but now he hesitated again, not knowing how to advance or retreat. Lin Yisheng gritted his teeth: "It's all big men, a spitting star and a nail, and if you say a million, you will be a million!" β
Old Man Long had been sitting there watching quietly, and then finally spoke: "In my opinion, except for Lijun, everyone is worried about the risk of this matter!" Lijun, you are the initiator of this matter, should you make a statement to everyone? β
Zhou Lijun looked at the old man with a smile for a long time, and tapped his finger at the old man's void a few times: "Old dragon head!" You are really my Buddha! No matter how much my grandson monkey turns 108,000 miles, I can't escape the palm of your old man's hand! β
With that, he went back to his chair, and Erlang crossed his legs and said loudly, "That's it!" I'll add another two million as a risk reserve! For all of you who are here today, if you lose money in the future, I will be responsible for compensating 50%! It's all right! β
"Look, this big boss's handwriting is different!" Old Man Long smiled and said, "Xiao Ding, don't hurry up and write it down!" Don't wait for a while, he's so noble and forgetful! β
"Hey, you old fellow!" Zhou Lijun was amused by the old man.
Ding Yachuan's hand holding the pen trembled slightly, knowing that those numbers were not for fun. Although everyone seems to be breezy and uneasy, it seems that this huge amount of money is not taken seriously. But he clearly knows how determined this group of people in the arena is for the basketball career! If this thing goes well, then everyone will be happy and will be able to share dividends; But there is still a greater possibility, and in the end it can only become a public welfare, and he can't help but be moved by the sincerity of these people!
"Xiao Ding, are you done? Look at what else you have to ask, just take this opportunity to say it all. Old Man Long approached him and asked cautiously.
"Hey! I said Xiao Xuan's father, why are you still hesitating! I don't even frown when I stake all my net worth! What are you doing here! Du Bin shouted loudly.
Zhou Lijun waved his hand at him, retracted the hippie smile just now, and said solemnly: "You are saying the wrong thing!" Over the years, I have been running around in Beijing, Qingshan, and even all over the country, who has not seen it? Often those cowhides that blow loudly in advance end up with straw bales! And it is precisely like Mr. Ding who always says ugly things in the front, and in the end it can be done! β
After educating Du Bin, Zhou Lijun looked at Ding Yachuan and said sincerely: "Mr. Ding, this time, I sincerely invite you to join our foundation!" Please say yes! β
Ding Yachuan looked at him and found that this seemingly flamboyant boss had two bright stars flashing in his clear eyes. He nodded solemnly, "Then I'll start the preliminary work before the foundation is prepared!" β
"Haha, then we can raise a glass now, right?" Fan Jinsong eagerly picked up the wine glass, but Old Man Long stopped him.
"This tea or wine, let's listen to what Boss Zhou arranges, right?"
Zhou Lijun turned his mind and said: "The old dragon head asked me to talk about this matter, it must have his intentions!" Tea and wine are inferior. But since ancient times, tea is a gentleman, and wine is a strong man! Soldiers charge into battle, and before leaving, they should drink and march! But the wise man is strategizing in the curtain, and drinking tea is more refreshing, 'plan and then act'! β
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Old Man Long. The old man sat there with his eyes closed, his body swaying rhythmically back and forth with his words.
Zhou Lijun paused, and then said: "Although we are not humble gentlemen, we will definitely not be the reckless men who charge into battle!" Let me say, we still use tea instead of bars! β
"Boss Zhou, no wonder your business is so big! Just these few words from you, I probably can't think of them in my life! Lin Yisheng skillfully patted a sycophant, and Zhou Lijun also showed that he was enjoying it.
"Let's just drink tea! Stay still! Today's tea, I'm going to make it for you! β
After speaking, Lin Yisheng turned around and ran back upstairs to get the jar of alpine rock tea.
