As soon as Xiang Dongfang's voice fell, Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, blinked, and then sighed decisively.

"All living beings, where to find soulmates at the end of the world."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang closed his eyes again and nodded: "Finally, someone finally understands me!" ”

Okay, that's what I said, but Cao Zhiqiang was complaining frantically in his heart, feeling that this girl didn't say if she really had an extraordinary IQ, but at least her thinking was definitely different from ordinary people.

If it weren't for Xiang Dongfang's extremely serious expression when he said these words, Cao Zhiqiang would have felt that she was teasing herself.

However, although she misunderstood Cao Zhiqiang's intentions, after thinking about it carefully, her words were not unreasonable.

In fact, Xiang Dongfang's words, simply translated, are a further extension of the famous saying "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility", or the opposite.

Obviously, when Xiang Dongfang was very young, he should have been the kind of prodigy with an extraordinary IQ, otherwise he would not have been told to be sent to some juvenile class.

The thing in the juvenile class, Cao Zhiqiang knows, and now there is one, it is a proper prodigy gathering place.

If you want to enter the juvenile class, it doesn't look at whether you have a background or whether you have money, it only depends on whether you are young enough and whether your IQ is strong enough.

If your IQ is not enough, not to mention that you can't get into the juvenile class at all, even if you barely get into the juvenile class, you will only reap a lot of pain.

However, let's not talk about what happens after that, at least for now, the junior class is an enviable place.

If your own child can enter the juvenile class, this will have more face than being admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University.

After all, this period is still the era of touting prodigies.

So normally, if a child is really a child prodigy, he will generally want to go to the juvenile class under the trend of vanity.

This is the same as a person who has a high score in the college entrance examination and becomes the top student in the college entrance examination, and generally chooses a famous school in the north.

The pros and cons of the junior class are difficult to define in later generations, but in the early eighties, the junior class was still an era of blind worship.

Because of the worship of prodigies in society, many colleges and universities later opened juvenile classes, and not only those three universities later had juvenile classes.

For example, Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, and other famous schools have all had juvenile classes, but they have not yet been opened.

Therefore, in this period, the juvenile class only refers to the juvenile class of the University of Science and Technology of China, and it is precisely because there is only this juvenile class in the country that it can become a prodigy in the juvenile class, at least for now, it is really glorious.

However, Xiang Dongfang has an extraordinary IQ, and she can already be selected for the juvenile class, but she deliberately hides it clumsily and deliberately does not go, which is a bit like the protagonist in a later Dongying anime, "Welcome to the Classroom of Strength Supremacy".

Cao Zhiqiang is a traverser, of course he knows that the ending of the juvenile class is not very good, but Xiang Dongfang is not a traverser, and she was still a pure child at the time, so she can find out that something is wrong with the juvenile class first, and then find a way to hide it by herself, and find a way to hide it by herself, which is a bit powerful.

Xiang Dongfang definitely doesn't have front and back eyes and can see through the future, she just carefully analyzed and found that going to the juvenile class is not friendly to her life.

Because I went to the juvenile class, I must learn a lot of knowledge that only adults can master, which is equivalent to asking Dongfang to exert his wisdom and talents at full power in advance. …

Touching those things too early will seem to be infinitely beautiful, but it will lose a lot of childhood fun, make yourself more tired, and the key will become the focus of everyone, enter the sight of many people too early, and then become a tool used by others earlier.

On the contrary, if she hides clumsiness, Xiang Dongfang will not have to go to the juvenile class, and she will not cause too many people, she will go to school step by step, and she will not be given too much expectations and pressure beyond ordinary people.

As the child of a high-ranking official, Xiang Dongfang has not worried about food and clothing since she was a child, nor has she been bullied, even if she is ordinary, she will still live in the caring atmosphere of being surrounded by good people, and there will be no wind and rain on her.

It is equivalent to saying that if Xiang Dongfang pretends to be an ordinary person, she can enjoy the protection brought to her by her high-level family, and she does not have to go to the juvenile class alone to fight alone.

However, she has enjoyed the protection of her family since she was a child, but she does not want to be bound by this kind of family when she grows up, so she did not listen to her parents and went to college locally, but came to the capital to go to college, just to leave home far away.

After coming to college, she basically didn't contact her family, and she didn't even go back once during the New Year's holidays, just to deliberately use this estranged way to cut off contact with the original family as much as possible.

In this way, as time goes on, her parents will gradually distance themselves from her and turn to her younger siblings.

Once her younger siblings grew up, Xiang Dongfang's parents began to focus on those two younger siblings, and Xiang Dongfang gradually freed.

In other words, from a very young age, Xiang Dongfang had his own opinions and ideas.

She used her family's background to make her childhood and adolescence smooth sailing, without a trace of waves.

When she reached adulthood and had the ability to live independently, she decisively applied for the university in the capital, and then used distance and studies as an excuse to gradually begin to cut ties with her original family.

In this way, she can decide her own life without being influenced by her family.

Even, if her father has problems in the future, she will definitely not be implicated.

It can be said that she has taken her egoism to the extreme, and has been secretly operating since she was a child.

The key is that none of her operations are noticed by others, but they all feel sorry for her, thinking that she is introverted and so on, and then loves her even more, never thinking about what her real intentions are.

It's a pity that no matter how smart she is, no matter how hard she puts her efforts, her plans are all brocade nocturnal.

It's good not to let outsiders know, but it's a bit embarrassing, and it's a shame that no one can see through her true intentions.

So, she's actually very lonely.

The reason for her loneliness is that she feels that the people around her are stupid people, who are not worthy of being with her at all, and who are not worthy of knowing her truth.

Well, there's a bit of a split personality.

However, by chance, she met Cao Zhiqiang, and then became interested in Cao Zhiqiang.

She found that Cao Zhiqiang had a lot of interesting things, and it was most likely the same person as her, but the turning point of his life was different, and the later path was different.

In order to confirm her thoughts, she began to inquire about Cao Zhiqiang's situation in many ways, mainly through Cao Lili. …

Then, based on the information she collected, coupled with her own reasoning and analysis, she finally believed that Cao Zhiqiang was a person like her and a hidden prodigy.

It was only because he was forced by life that Cao Zhiqiang exposed his talent when his guardians were all dead, and then he was out of control.

But because of this, Cao Zhiqiang was favored by some big shots, so he became the knife in the hands of those big shots, and took on the responsibility that he shouldn't have taken in advance.

"I've inquired."

Just when Cao Zhiqiang was still pondering, Xiang Dongfang suddenly said: "The Hongguang Publishing House you have mastered is a subordinate unit of the Hongguang Machinery Factory, and the Hongguang Machinery Factory has been on the transformation list of the Beijing Municipal Government.

Since last month, the municipal government's financial subsidies to Hongguang Machinery Factory have begun to halved, and then at the end of this year, the municipal government will completely stop the financial subsidies to Hongguang Machinery Factory.

If Hongguang Machinery Factory can't be self-financed and support itself by the end of this year, it will have to respond to the above transformation plan and take the initiative to cooperate with Shougang, which is actually swallowed up by Shougang.

At that time, the main part of the production of Hongguang Machinery Factory, such as workshop workers, production equipment and other parts that can create value, will be relocated.

The remaining factories, hospitals, schools and other buildings, and of course, the factory land will be taken away by the municipal government, and then the nature of the land and departments will be changed, so that the industrial land will become commercial land, and the factories and hospitals will also become government-owned institutions.

Once this transformation is completed, the ordinary workers may not have much impact, but for those who are officials, it is not good.

Especially that Li Siming, that is, the director of your machinery factory, is estimated to lose power completely, be pushed to the end, and directly retreat to the second line and wait for retirement.

Your Hongguang Machinery Factory is now like Soochow before the Battle of Chibi.

The people below all wanted to surrender, and none of them were against surrendering.

Because at present, after the Hongguang Machinery Factory is jointly annexed and transformed by Shougang and the municipal government, the treatment of ordinary workers will not change much, and they will still be retained.

But for the head of a factory, or for those top people in power, it's different.

Before the Battle of Chibi, all the ministers of Eastern Wu could surrender, but only the lord of Eastern Wu could not surrender.

On the other hand, look at your Director Li, he is the same.

Once he surrenders, he has nothing.

However, Director Li's energy and ability are also limited, and it is impossible to turn the machinery factory into a profit in a short period of time by relying only on his ability.

There is no way for him to take a fancy to your talent.

You see, he deliberately applied for a publishing house, and got you, a little-known person, to be the vice president and general manager, giving you fame and power, just letting you go.

You really lived up to your expectations, and immediately after you took over, you published a book, and it immediately became a big hit, and I don't know how much money you made, but it's definitely not a small amount.

Seeing that you are so useful, in order to keep you as a cash cow, Director Li tried his best to promote you to the president of the publishing house and become the real number one. …

He seems to give you power, but in fact, he puts shackles on you and makes you work harder for him.

Let's just talk about your set of "Jianghu Xing", there are almost no college students who don't know about it, and the popularity is even more powerful than your original poetry collection.

I also know some of the inside story of the publishing industry, and in this case, the profits that your publishing house can make are definitely not small, at least more than one million.

You've created so much value for the publisher, but how much money do they give you? I'm afraid there won't be a lot, right?

And you seem to have a lot of power, but don't forget, this publishing house is a subordinate unit of Hongguang Machinery Factory, as long as your director Li is not satisfied, he can remove you at any time.

So, they're just using you and using you as a pawn.

Although in the process, you may also make a lot of money, and even have status and power.

But it's nothing compared to what you've put in.

I think it's very unfair to you, so I found a way to come to you, just to wake you up and help you.

But looking at the way you look now, it seems that you have already known all this?

Could it be that you are not simply being used, but using each other? ”

Cao Zhiqiang frowned, and then clapped his hands with a smile: "It's amazing, it's really amazing, I feel like you've seen through it." ”

Xiang Dongfang smiled: "It's nothing, I'm just a bystander, plus I found some people and asked some things, but I don't know the specific situation, I can only speculate based on the existing situation." ”

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "So, your so-called desire to stay in the capital through my relationship is actually just an excuse, you just want to come to work with me and help me?" ”

"Yes." Xiang Dongfang nodded, "If I want to stay in the capital, there are many ways, even if I don't have to look for my father."

However, I suddenly thought that you were a very interesting person, and that you should be of the same kind as me, so I wanted to see you up close, and if I could help you, I would do it.

It's a pity, after all, it's because of the same kind, I also think you're more than stupid, so I can't help but tell the truth.

Of course, even if I don't say it, with your cleverness, I guess you'll soon find out about my problem.

If nothing else, at least you can find out who my father is, which in itself is not easy.

If you can find out who my father is, it means that you not only have a strong background, but you can also find someone with a background to help.

However, what I admire even more is that you can see through my disguise and find someone to check my details in advance, which shows that you are a cautious person.

You know, I've been a governess in your house for so long, and you've been so arrogant that I thought you were an informal, careless person in small things.

But now it seems that you should have checked my details a long time ago, so you are so relieved of me.

A cautious and extremely intelligent person, who is still quiet in doing things, can hide his true thoughts, this kind of person is unlikely to be used as a gun casually.

If yes, then there must be something else! ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "If I am such a terrible person, then are you still willing to come to work with me?" ”

"Of course I do." Xiang Dongfang smiled slightly.

"Originally, I wanted to find an ordinary place by myself, do an ordinary position, and then get married and live an ordinary life.

Although I am indeed a genius with an extraordinary IQ, no one says that geniuses can't live an ordinary life, right?

On the contrary, geniuses have more opportunities to choose.

I can choose to be as flat as water, or I can choose to be magnificent.

Originally, I really wanted to continue to calm down like water, it would make it easier for me.

But your presence has rekindled my curiosity and interest.

I think it might be interesting to follow your kind and take a look at the magnificence. ”

"Understood, thoroughly understood." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Then there is only one last question left, since you are planning to come to work by my side and take a look by my side, then why did you bring an outsider here?" ”

"Outsiders?" Xiang Dongfang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Oh, you mean that Xu Jingli?" ”

"Yes!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "What are you bringing her for?" Don't say it, she's also your kind, and she's a super genius who can hide her clumsiness! ”
