Chapter 502: Brother Wang is still Brother Wang, but the brothers have changed
"Red Star Beer, you have it and I have it"
"Red Star Beer, forever!"
The special program about the Olympic Games on the CCTV Sports Channel was launched a few days before the Atlanta Olympics.
Before the special started, there was an advertisement for Red Star Beer.
At this time, Wang Weidong and Song Yu had already arrived in Wulin City, and were now sitting in the training base of the Red Star Beer football team in Wulin City watching the advertisement about Red Star Beer on TV.
"Weidong, what do you think of the design of this advertisement?" Song Yu asked.
"I think it's not bad, it's just that we have too little Red Star beer production right now. The 200,000-ton beer plant under construction will not be operational in a few months. Wang Weidong said regretfully.
"Let's hit the popularity first, and then we can place advertisements in the time period before the live football broadcast on the CCTV sports channel." Song Yu said.
I don't know when foreign beer brands have been associated with football, the World Cup, the European Cup and the major European football leagues are full of major beer brands in the world.
This time, Red Star Beer's advertising during the broadcast of the Olympic Games on CCTV for more than half a month was also a test of the waters.
Since the first broadcast of the Olympic Games by CCTV in 88, every Olympic Games has attracted the attention of all Chinese. Many of the products advertised on the Olympics TV show also quickly became a household name.
The host and guests on TV are discussing whether the Chinese team can hit the top of the gold medal table in this Olympic Games. It is impossible to surpass the number of gold medals in sports powerhouses such as the United States and the northern powers, but there is hope to attack the position of the leader of the second echelon.
Table tennis, badminton, diving, weightlifting, these are all the best events for the Chinese team to compete for gold and silver.
The host and the guests discussed hotly, but Wang Weidong and Song Yu discussed the upcoming A and B League at this time.
Several of the players they brought back from Germany are about to make their home debut in Wulin City. The news has already spread, and reporters from the evening newspaper and TV station in Wulin City have heard the news and interviewed the coach and players.
When Song Yu faced reporters, he deliberately avoided the price of the introduction of assistant coaches, team doctors and five players, and also vaguely said about the fact that they came from Germany's fourth league.
But the head coach Schmidt was too honest and told reporters all about it when he faced it.
Now the entire Wulin City knows that the top management of the Red Star Beer Team actually only spent more than 400,000 yuan. The dollar brought in the head coach, assistant coach and team doctor and five players from Germany!
Such a low price is obviously a parallel import.
Red Star Beer is definitely not the first to bring players into the Chinese professional league from abroad. Now the major mainstream football media has begun to discuss the pros and cons of China's introduction of players from abroad, and some experts believe that the introduction of players from abroad has squeezed out the quota of Chinese players, reducing the opportunities for Chinese players to play and practice, so it is not a good thing.
Wang Weidong and Song Yu didn't care about this, they just thought that the Red Star Beer Team could win, to paraphrase the words of the great man, the Red Star Beer Team was the seeder and propaganda team of Red Star Beer and Xiangyang Electronics.
"Schmidt, the old man, said in front of reporters that the total price of the three people, including him, was only 120,000 US dollars, and he could say such a shameful thing, isn't it a bit stupid? Next time we're going to sign a confidentiality clause! Song Yu said angrily.
The two of them were chatting when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Wang Weidong opened the door and saw a doorman from a football training base standing at the door.
Nowadays, the management of the football base is very strict, and people are prohibited from entering and leaving at night unless there are special circumstances.
"Mr. Wang, there is a person outside the base who wants to look for you by name." The doorman said.
"Didn't he say who he was?" Wang Weidong asked.
"He said it, he said his name was Lin Yizhong." The doorman replied.
Wang Weidong was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted to who Lin Yizhong was.
"You let him in, forget it, I'll go out with you." Wang Weidong said to the doorman.
Then Wang Weidong followed the doorman out of the base dormitory and came to the big iron gate.
A Mercedes-Benz sedan was parked outside the big iron gate, and next to it stood a man in his early 30s with glasses.
Wang Weidong recognized him at a glance as Lin Yizhong, who had not seen him for seven or eight years.
Seeing Wang Weidong walking to the big iron gate, Lin Yizhong immediately recognized him and called Brother Wang.
"I didn't expect you kid to know about coming to see me!" Wang Weidong said with a smile.
Then he asked the doorman to open the big iron gate and let the car drive into the football training base.
Looking at the Mercedes-Benz, Wang Weidong said with a smile: "It seems that your kid is mixing well now, this Mercedes-Benz has four or five hundred thousand, right?" β
"Nearly 600,000!" Lin Yizhong replied.
In his words, Lin Yizhong was a little proud.
Wang Weidong took Lin Yizhong into his room and said to Song Yu who was sitting in the room: "Xiaoyu, this is the college student Lin Yizhong I met in Harbin that I told you before!" It's the first time you've met, and it would be nice if Xiaoyang was here, both of us met him in Hashi. β
"Hello," Lin Yizhong nodded and said.
"Let's do it, I've heard Wei Dong say you a few times before, after graduating from college in eight or eight years, I knew that there were really few college students who went out to start a business in the world, and it was really not easy!" Song Yu said.
"It's far worse than you, although I haven't looked for Brother Wang in the past few years, I have been paying attention to the news of Sunningdale from newspapers and other media. Your business is just too big. Lin Yizhong said.
"That's because we have a good leader, he is your Wang Weidong Wang brother!" Song Yu said with a smile.
"This is the result of everyone's joint efforts, and you have contributed to Sunningdale over the years." Wang Weidong said.
Song Yu is very knowledgeable, he must have a lot to say when he sees Wang Weidong's old friend visiting, and Lin Yizhong is likely to have something to do when he suddenly comes here at this time, and it is not convenient for him to be present at this time.
So Song Yu stood up and said, "Let's talk first, I'm going back to sleep." β
After Song Yu left, Wang Weidong carefully looked at Lin Yizhong, who was sitting in front of him.
Lin Yizhong changed a lot when he met him in Harbin City.
At that time, Lin Yizhong was still a college student, his family was rural, and his life was very difficult. A set of fat clothes covers sweat in summer, and in winter, I put a cotton jacket and cotton pants directly in it, and I can't even afford cotton shoes.
At that time, it was still the cotton shoes that Wang Weidong bought for him.
But Lin Yizhong, who is sitting in front of him now, has changed dramatically from the shabby college student back then.
"You're in a Pierre Cardin's suit, aren't you?" Wang Weidong asked with a smile.
Then he reached out and touched the tie clip on Lin Yizhong's tie and said, "You kid even this gadget is pure gold, plus the Mercedes-Benz you drove outside, it seems that you have mixed well over the years." I remember when you came to Harbin to find me, saying that you were going to the south to start a business, and took 20,000 yuan from me, we said at that time, I want to take 30% of the shares! You kid bought such a good car and wore such a good clothes, it wouldn't all cost me money, right? β
Wang Weidong's words were obviously ridiculous, and with Wang Weidong's current net worth, he wouldn't care about those little money, but hearing Wang Weidong's words, Lin Yizhong's face was still a little embarrassed.
Over the years, he took Wang Weidong's 20,000 yuan to start a business in the south, but he never contacted Wang Weidong. , this kind of behavior seems very unrighteous.
"When you left Harbin City, you wrote two letters to my house at the beginning, saying that you had set up a small plastic toy factory in Longgang. Are you still in Longgang now? How is the operation of the factory? Wang Weidong asked.
When Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaoyang were running a small radio factory in Harbin City, they hired dozens of college students from the university to install radios for them in order to rush the work of radios. Since then, Wang Weidong has had a good impression of Lin Yizhong, a poor but honest young man, and has helped him more than once, treating him as his brother in his heart.
Wang Weidong asked Lin Yizhong this is also a kind of concern.
Hearing Wang Weidong's question, Lin Yizhong replied: "After I arrived in Longgang, I recruited four or five workers to work as OEM for other toy factories to earn a little money. After making more money, I found someone to design Christmas trees and other plastic toys with photoelectric sound, mainly for foreign supply, and the benefits have been okay in recent years. Now there are thirty or forty workers in the factory, and counting all the assets, it should be about 2 million. β
Lin Yizhong took eight years to grow from 20,000 to more than 2 million, although it can't be said how fast and rapid the development is, but it is not bad.
In the 90s, Lin Yizhong could also be counted as a small rich man.
However, hearing Lin Yizhong say this, Wang Weidong had no smile on his face.
"Over the years, I have seen more rich bosses in the south than you, although there are also people who show off their wealth, but most of them are still relatively simple. You kid spent 600,000 yuan to buy a car with a small factory asset of only 2 million, and he was covered with famous brands, as if he was going to marry a new daughter-in-law. What are you doing with all your money on all this nonsense? Wang Weidong said very politely.
Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Lin Yizhong smiled awkwardly, and he explained: "Now that you have money, you always have to put on a faΓ§ade." Otherwise, who can afford you? In the past few years, I have driven back to my hometown in a car, and those people's eyes are about to fall out! I also once went to Harbin City to invite a few classmates to dinner, and I choked them with envy! β
Wang Weidong was silent.
Lin Yizhong's family is very financially difficult, and it is not easy to be admitted to a key university step by step. In this process, the people in his hometown and his classmates in school don't know how many rolls of eyes they gave him. Now showing off his wealth can be regarded as a kind of psychological compensation for Lin Yizhong.
When Lin Yizhong invited those classmates who worked in Harbin City to dinner, he must have felt very proud and satisfied.
When they were assigned jobs after graduating from university, the classmates who wanted to stay in Harbin City and enter a large state-owned factory were squeezed out, and Lin Yizhong's grades were higher than them in the four years of college, but in the end they had to obey and be assigned to a factory in the ravine of Fujian Province, and the factory soon closed down.
.
I don't know what kind of mood those students who participated in Lin Yizhong's dinner invitation will feel when they see the now developed Lin Yizhong?
Thinking of this, Wang Weidong understood Lin Yizhong's mood very well. He said in a gentle tone: "Yizhong, the past is over, the only thing you have to do now is to make your career bigger and bigger, don't learn from the bad mistakes of those Northeast people, if you have two money, you will have a big gold chain and a small gold watch, in fact, that kind of practice is despised!" β
