346: Old Man Xu is not optimistic about Lin Yao

"Coming back?"

Looking at Xu Lingjun who walked in the door, Old Man Xu put down the newspaper and asked with concern, "How was the fun?" ”

"Beijing is very big, much more prosperous than our northwest ranch, especially the cars on the street, there are not a few on our side at all."

Xu Lingjun sat next to the old man, handed over a pen holder, and said: "I also bought you a pen holder, blue and white, Hangzhou kiln in the 23rd year of the Republic of China, do you like it?" ”

Old Man Xu put on his glasses, took the pen holder from Xu Lingjun's hand, looked at it twice, and nodded: "I like it, I remember that there was also a pen holder like this in the study back then, and it was broken by you later." ”

"Do you remember?"

The smile on Xu Lingjun's face was even bigger, and he sighed: "I also bought it because I thought of that pen holder after seeing it." ”

The pen holder is not expensive, and it is rare to have this heart.

Old Man Xu stroked the pen holder, as if he had returned to the years thirty years ago, when he was in the Xu family's compound.

This contemplation took more than ten minutes.

Looking back and looking up, Xu Lingjun was still looking at him, and couldn't help but sigh to Old Man Xu: "I still have two sons abroad, but none of them can match you, impulsive, frizzy, and do things without thinking about the consequences."

If they were here, I am afraid that they would not be able to wait for a few minutes, and they should have run out to mess around. ”

Xu Lingjun just listened and didn't say a word.

Old Man Xu sighed, put down the pen holder in his hand, and asked, "How is the young man surnamed Lin, can you play with him?" ”

"You say him!"

Xu Lingjun thought for a while and said, "I have never seen such a calm young man, he doesn't even look like a young man, but an old guy in his fifties and sixties.

You will never get bored chatting with him, he has a wide range of knowledge, not only has certain opinions about the affairs of his hometown, but also has his own unique opinions on international issues. ”

"Hmm..."

Old Man Xu nodded lightly and advised: "Although I don't communicate much with him, I can judge from a few words that he is a very powerful young man."

You can communicate with him a lot, you're only thirty-six years old, don't be like an old man all day, that would be too boring. ”

Xu Lingjun didn't speak, and those ten special years made him develop a character that did not easily express his opinions.

He likes to see more and doesn't like to talk more.

At present, his sense of Lin Yao is not bad, because Lin Yao does not have the arrogance of Hong Kong businessmen and has a positive attitude towards the motherland, which Xu Lingjun appreciates very much.

Your own country is like your own mother.

Even if she complains, she can't tolerate others saying that she is not good.

"Today, Lin Xiaozi said that in fifty years of life, you have to do something to live this life in vain.

I made a name for myself in the United States, and many people knew me.

But in my hometown, in this place where I was born and raised, there is no trace of me.

His words touched me a lot, and after I came back, I also thought, what happened back then is over, and now that the country is getting rich and strong, I should do something. ”

Old Man Xu turned the topic to himself, showing that he wanted to speak and stopped.

Xu Lingjun looked at it and took the initiative to ask, "What do you mean?" ”

The old man said in a deep voice: "I am going to take out 10 million US dollars to fund the major schools in Yanjing.

No matter how hard you can't work education, I heard the following people say that the libraries of major schools have not updated books for many years, and many scientific journals still use them ten years ago.

In the past few decades, technology has developed rapidly, and if you are derailed from the outside, it will be difficult to catch up.

In addition, I found that there are not many computers in my hometown, and I am ready to donate another 100 computers.

The future is the information age, how can college students not even have contact with computers? ”

Hearing this, Xu Lingjun was speechless for a long time.

Yesterday, he talked with the old man, who still had a knot in his heart about the events of that year, and had no plans to invest in the mainland.

But I didn't want to, I met a Hong Kong businessman in the morning, and the effort of three or five sentences brought so many changes.

"Dad, you figured it out?"

"I've figured it out, while my old bones are still there, let's do what I can."

Old Man Xu said, looked up at Xu Lingjun, and said, "How are you thinking about it, when will you go back with me?"

If you go back with me, I will let you take over the company, and it will only take three or five years for you to become the master of a billionaire group.

At that time, if you are still concerned about this side, you can do whatever you want, and you will be able to realize your own value. ”

Xu Lingjun smiled bitterly.

Although some places have changed, some places have not changed.

He is still most concerned about his company, worried that there will be no successor, whether it is to fund his hometown or come back to him, in fact, there is a trace of purpose.

"Dad, give me some more time, it's not an easy thing to decide, I need to think about it again."

Xu Lingjun's heart is complicated.

Here is the land he loves, his wife and children who share hardships and hardships, and the first half of his life.

He couldn't just go and go to the United States with a father he had only known for two days.

What's more, is the United States really as good as it says?

Not necessarily, right?

The old man also has two sons in the United States, although in his mouth these two sons are playboys and are not successful.

But after all, there is, if he appears, he has to think about how to face those two half-brothers.

Hundreds of supermarket chains, with more than 10,000 employees and more than 100 million assets.

What kind of concept is this, just the old man's business alone can feed the people of a county.

With such a huge industry, will those two younger brothers who have never met be willing to let him sit in the position of chairman?

Taking a step back, even if he becomes the chairman, can he lead the company to create more brilliance as the old man said?

He is Chinese New Year's Eve and sixteen, he can't speak English, and he is not a young man anymore.

Can you adapt to the country under capitalism?

If it was five years ago, when he was in his early thirties and didn't know Xiuzhi, he would have been willing to go to the United States to break through.

But now, what he values most is his family.

He just wants to stay by his relatives and be a husband and a father dutifully.

No matter how good life is in the United States, it is not what he wants, and he does not expect to be a billionaire, nor does he have the luxury of managing a business with more than 10,000 employees.

Old man Xu had all these things, but Xu Lingjun didn't find that he was very happy.

Xu Lingjun has nothing, but he is very happy and full of hope every day.

"Lingjun, I'm not in a hurry to go back, you can think about it again."

Seeing Xu Lingjun's attitude, Old Man Xu didn't say anything, but his eyes were mixed with loneliness.

Xu Lingjun's personality is too similar to him, they are all diehards who believe that one thing can't be pulled back by nine cows.

I knew this, I should have left him a few more Western classics back then, to neutralize his reddened brain.

"By the way, when you went out with them today, did you ask them what they were going to do when they came to the mainland?"

Old Man Xu thought for a moment, and asked Lin Yao and the others again.

Xu Lingjun thought for a moment after hearing this, and replied: "They seem to want to invest in supermarket stores, just like you did in the United States." ”

"Hypermall?"

Old Man Xu was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "It's difficult, I have also considered it before, can I take advantage of the fact that there is no super mall in my hometown to be the first person to eat crabs and enter the Tang Kingdom in a big way."

Later, I rejected this proposal, and now the situation in Tang is still unclear, and there are different opinions on how to go in the future.

What if the policy of reform and opening up is vetoed, when the time comes, all private capital will be taken into the state, and you and I will cry without tears. ”

Thirty years ago, Mr. Xu caught up with a serious incident in which private capital was taken over as state-owned.

He admits that he's scared, and there's no way you can't help but be afraid.

The Xu family back then was also a powerful existence in the north, and it fell apart overnight, and he still remembers that scene.

Lin Yao is not afraid because he is familiar with the trend of history.

Others do not have this foresight, taking reform and opening up as an example, it is also a situation that has only been completely opened up after the southern tour of the great man in the 90s.

Before that, let's take this year as an example, the founder of the fool was also arrested and put in prison once.

Just because he hired more than a dozen people to sell fried melon seeds.

The crime: capitalist restoration.

Who can not be afraid?

If you are not afraid, the entry of foreign capital into the Chinese market will not be after the nineties.

In the seventies and eighties, the prescient capitalists had long taken a fancy to the Tang market.

Not moving, not because there is no capital.

Rather, they are worried that the situation is unstable, and there is a change in the policy above.
