Coming out of the YM Group, Ruby and I looked a little depressed because the results were bad.

Not only did Phoenix not agree to my proposal, he didn't even give me a chance to say it, and he rejected our product entirely.

This hit me not a little bit, which is exactly the same as the feeling of Mr. Li Hongzhang when he visited the United States.

At that moment, my heart was full of grievances, and I once thought that our domestic production was already going to the world.

But at this moment, I experienced first-hand what it was like to be excluded and hit.

"Dong Chen, what should I do now?" Ruby asked me dejectedly.

I lit a cigarette and asked him with a wry smile: "This old guy Fenix is attacking our domestic production so much, do you still want to continue to cooperate with us?" ”

"Why not? Chinese products are not bad, there is a big market. ”

"But you've heard what Fenix said."

"Chen Dong, this old thing Fenix said this on purpose, his purpose is to let you reduce the price, and then make a profit from it."

Something that even the rupee knows, how could I not know.

But what Fenix said is also true, if our products are good enough, then we have no shortage of markets.

At that moment, I was deeply insulted in my heart, and it also made me more convinced of what I thought in my heart.

I want to upgrade the product, no matter how much it costs, no matter how much it costs, I want to upgrade all the products under our group.

I hope to stand in front of Fenix one day and say to him, your European products are the cheapest!

After pondering for a long time, I finally said to Rupee, "Rupee, continue your hunger marketing, and I'll upgrade the product when I go back." ”

"Chen Dong, what you said is true?" Rupee's eyes lit up.

"Do you think I'm joking with you right now?" I said very seriously.

"It's not like it, but Chen Dong, you also said before that it's not as simple as it says."

"It's not simple, it's a matter of dignity!"

……

Shortly after separating from Rupee, Anlan's call came in.

She asked me, "Did you see Fenix?" ”

"See, I've been hit."

As if she had already guessed this result, An Lan said, "Being rejected is what I thought of, but what did he hit you?" ”

"He told me that our Chinese products are synonymous with cheapness, and anyway, he said a lot of things that made me embarrassed, which was terrible."

An Lan sighed softly and said, "Come back, I already knew that I would run for nothing." ”

"I didn't run in vain, at least it made me know that there is a gap between us, and it also made me more determined to upgrade our belief in upgrading products."

"Looks like you've figured out what to do, come back, I have good news for you."

"What's the good news?"

"Someone wants to invest in us, but there is no specific intention yet, so let's talk about it when you come back."

This news is indeed huge good news for me, I am worried that I have no money to upgrade the product, so someone is sending money?

I immediately asked An Lan, "Who?" ”

"I'll surprise you when you get back."

"When you say that, I want to come back right now."

"Isn't it possible that you don't plan to come back yet?"

I let out a long sigh and said, "I want to come here, I want to visit local companies here in Europe, and learn about other people's management models or something, so it's not a trip in vain." ”

"Okay, is Rupee with you?"

"He's going to do his business, I'm going to find our mother to come with me, she's also familiar here, and I just happened to go to see her too."

"It's okay, then I'll send you my mother's address later, I'll tell her, you just go to her directly."

"Hmm."

I hung up the phone, and soon I received the address from Anlan.

I didn't have a single delay, even if I took a taxi to Min Nolan's residence.

I've been to Min Nolan's house before, and it's a huge manor, and it's a paradise on earth.

But the address An Lan gave me was not the manor it used to be, it was just an ordinary residential area.

However, the streets in this residential area are quite clean, and sparsely populated, and the scenery is quite good.

It's not a reinforced concrete building, or an ordinary small bungalow, one by one, like a small village.

After contacting Min Nolan, she asked me where I was and asked me to wait for her right there.

After waiting for about a few minutes, I saw Min Nolan, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

She looked haggard than the last time I saw her, but she still looked young, like a woman in her forties, when in fact she was in her fifties.

Not only is it a little haggard, but it also looks more relatable.

After we met and exchanged pleasantries for a while, I followed her to my accommodation.

Not far in front of me was in a bungalow, where there was a yard full of roses and a little cat lying on the railing.

I don't know why, but when I saw these pictures, my state of mind suddenly quieted down.

In this small village on the periphery of the city, there is no industrial area, no cars coming and going, and no people hurrying to the road.

The people here are leisurely, talking and laughing, and they are very comfortable and comfortable.

These images suddenly reminded me of a poem by Haizi: From tomorrow onwards, be a happy person feeding horses, chopping wood, and traveling the world.

And the people who live here are not like that?

I'm already in love with this place, and even though I'm just here, I'm fascinated by the beautiful surroundings and atmosphere.

No wonder Min Nuolan doesn't want to return to China with An Lan, if I live in this fairy-like place, I don't want to leave!

But no matter how good it is, I think it's better than my homeland.

As the saying goes: a golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as your own kennel.

Walking into the courtyard of the small bungalow, a fragrance of roses suddenly came to my face.

I casually glanced around and saw an antique coffee table in the courtyard.

There is a delicate coffee maker on the table, as well as a variety of coffees and snacks.

Although the courtyard is not big, it is very clean, and there is a rattan chair inside, which is warmly arranged, and the style is very distinctive, exuding a burst of elegant atmosphere, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

But Min Nolan beckoned to sit down at the coffee table and made me coffee.

Listening to the sound of coffee tumbling, at this moment, time seems to stand still.

Everything was so harmonious and peaceful, I was intoxicated.

Min Nolan handed me the brewed coffee and cheese, and said, "YM didn't give you any good fruit to eat, did you?" ”

I came back to my senses, and I guess An Lan had already told her about me.

I nodded and said, "Actually, it's nothing, it only strengthens my resolve, and their rejection of me won't stop me from doing anything." ”

Min Nuolan smiled indifferently, she is still so temperamental, but it doesn't give me a huge sense of oppression like that, I feel an unprecedented sense of intimacy.

"I finally know why An Lan insisted on taking Xiao Man back to China to find you, and I finally know why An Lan has been thinking about you all these years."

She smiled, fiddling with the coffee utensils again, and said, "I didn't have a deep contact with you before, and I really can't see anything good about you. ”

I smiled and said, "Mom, why don't you go back to China with An Lan?" So we can take care of you, you're alone here......"

Min Nolan took it and said, "Do you think I'm having a bad time here?" ”

"Your environment here is very good, but there are no relatives around, how lonely is this?"

"Who says I don't have any relatives?"

Before Min Nuolan's words fell, a man's voice suddenly came out of the room: "It's Xiao Chen here, right?" ”
