C4133 Buy, Buy, Buy!(part I)
When he looked at Dongfang Qingyu, he would always think of the past. He placed himself in Dongfang Qingyu’s position and realized that other than using money to smash the media and make them ignore him, there was no better way. Dongfang Qingyu was more ruthless. LEEKEE used framing to blacken him, so he used fake videos to drag LEEKEE into the water. Both parties became victims. The difference was that Dongfang Qingyu was not bothered. If the big shot in the game had the ability, he could do it. His reputation was not important. However, LEEKEE was different. His character had collapsed, and he had lost a lot of fans. His career would definitely be affected. Now, it was still early, so he might not be able to see it, but as time passed, LEEKEE would experience what it was like to be in the winter.
“Actually, it is still a matter of guidance. Youths need to have a correct value system. If there are no fans, people like LEEKEE will not have the chance to become a top celebrity. If it was in the past, people like him could only be a group actor or a side character,” Dongfang Qingyu said. He did not have any special hatred for LEEKEE. Instead, he was more worried about the fans’ values. For their idols, they would lose their basic values. If this continued, it would be very scary.
"The school has a lot to do with it. The capital is also one of the culprits. They are behind the scenes," Young Master Xu said.
"Aren't you talking about yourself?" Dongfang Qingyu said with a smile.
"I think I'm still considered righteous." Young Master Xu was stunned for a moment before he laughed.
"Your opinion is not considered. You have to get others' opinions," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"This should be the inevitable result of the development of history. Problems like this will always appear. The speed of the development of the material civilization and the spiritual civilization is not a parallel line," Young Master Xu said.
"What do you mean?" Dongfang Qingyu looked at him.
"Some people feel very happy when they solve the problem of food and clothing. Some people feel very painful when they eat western food and drink red wine. Some people will retire early when they earn enough to pay for their pension. They will do something meaningful. Some people are already rich enough to rival a country, but they still feel that it's not enough. They work hard to earn money and even commit crimes," Young Master Xu said.
"This is indeed very interesting," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"When I was studying abroad, I got a foreign girlfriend. Her family is very rich—" Young Master Xu said.
"How rich can she be? Is she even richer than you?" Dongfang Qingyu was curious.
"It's hard to say. We, the people of China, pay attention to not revealing our wealth. The foreigners also do the same. But I saw that her family has three luxury cruise ships, private ones, not for profit. She has more than a dozen manors and six castles. She brought me to a grape field in her family where more than three million bottles of high-quality wine are hidden—" Young Master Xu said.
Dongfang Qingyu let out a slight cry of surprise. Seeing that someone was looking at her, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Dongfang Qingyu had only brought Zhang Lu'er with her on this trip to Europe. Zhang Lu'er was proficient in German and English. After she graduated, she had worked as a translator for a few years in a German company.
"She has a museum in her family that is not open to the public. As long as they have the opportunity, they will buy antiques and cultural relics and put them inside. She told me that if one day her family went bankrupt, they could rely on these antiques and cultural relics to have the capital to rise again," Xu Shaoqing said.
"Why did such a rich girl break up?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"This family is only loyal to their own family. They have no concept of nationalism. If there is an opportunity, they will abandon their own country and make a fortune from war," Xu Shaoqing said.
"How could there be such a person?" Zhang Lu'er could not help but ask.
"They have a belief in building their own country," Xu Shaoqing said.
"This... Isn't their goal a little... too big?" Zhang Lu'er was surprised. In this era, it was almost impossible to build a country.
"They have been instilled with this belief since they were young. Therefore, everyone in their family has a sense of duty. Every one of them is outstanding and are elites in their respective fields. Even if they are not talented, they are not like parasites in society. Our country was like this in the beginning. Everyone has a strong sense of duty, but as the economic foundation becomes better, the spiritual civilization declines. This is the result of material progress being too fast and the spiritual civilization not catching up," Xu Shaoqing said.
"That makes sense. However, this is only a matter of proportion. Our country has a large population, so even if 1% of the population is illiterate, there are still quite a number of people. However, overall, it's still good. This ZGJ800 is a good example," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Speaking of ZGJ800, I have to admire Young Master Dong's generosity. He bought 10 million units in one go. Dapao has not fired a single cannon in the past few days. He smiles whenever he sees someone." Xu Shaoqing said. Dapao was the CEO of China knot.
"I heard that many people are scolding me. Rich people are stupid," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Young Master Dong, don't lower yourself to their level. Actually, they are jealous of you. They want to spend a lot of money, but they are too poor. However, the competitors of China knot are really scolding you," Xu Shaoqing said.
"The products of the fruit company this time are without any highlights. Compared to the previous generation of mobile phones, they are simply like changing the soup and not changing the medicine. It's understandable that no one wants to buy them. The fruit company should look for problems themselves. Did they innovate in the past few years? Did they catch the needs of the customers? Instead of complaining that the customers are becoming less willing to spend money," Zhang Lu'er said.
"Actually, this is not the fruit company's fault. The fruit company's investment in research and development is one of the top in the world. However, there is a time limit for technological innovation. Our technology has been in a state of rapid growth for the past few hundred years. The speed of development is even faster than the past few thousand years. However, this speed cannot be maintained forever. The changes in the fruit company these few years have proven this point," Xu Shaoqing said.
"I heard that the fruit company is going to move its business chain to the neighboring third brother. How much do you know about the third brother?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"That is a magical country, with its unique culture, the most advanced skyscrapers, the most advanced technology, and the world's largest slum. One thousand people use one toilet. If you go on a trip, it is okay. If you invest, there are risks. You have to be prepared to be scammed." Xu Shaoqing said.
"I want to go and experience it." Dongfang Qingyu smiled and said, "I am more curious about the Ganges. Is it like the report said, with only one element cycle table, or is it better to govern it?"
"This... It's better to go and see it personally. I won't tell you the details." Xu Shaoqing smiled mysteriously.
"Duan Jiu and Duan Da are looking for you to work with. I'm very curious. What is the reason for your rejection?" Dongfang Qingyu suddenly changed the topic, and Xu Shaoqing could not laugh.
"Good things don't come out of the door, and bad things spread far and wide!" Xu Shaoqing said with a bitter face, "I'm afraid that my days in the future won't be easy."
"With your father here, what are you afraid of?" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"My father is preparing to retire next year." Xu Shaoqing said.
"This is a big news." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"So, I have to work hard this year. Otherwise, there will be a mess next year." Xu Shaoqing said.
"Duan Da's legs are still very thick." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Prince Duan's hands are very long," Xu Shaoqing said.
Dongfang Qingyu roughly understood that Xu Shaoqing's family was also powerful. Although he did not know who it was, his position should not be lower than Duan Jiuyin's. Otherwise, Xu Shaoqing would not have the guts to refuse Duan Jiuyin. In many countries, the power of capital could influence the policies, but that was not the case in our country.
Not to mention that Xu Shaoqing was the son of the richest man, even if his father was the richest man himself, if there was no one behind him, he would not dare to offend Duan Jiuyin. The number of rich people who went in was not just one or two.
Traveling thousands of miles could indeed increase a lot of knowledge. Xu Shaoqing had experience studying abroad and knew many students from different countries. When he chatted with him, there would definitely not be a cold scene. The customs and habits of various countries were all very eye-opening. Zhang Lu'er was originally prepared to rest, but after listening to him, he did not feel sleepy at all.
The plane was actually bought by Xu Shaoqing's father in the name of the group, and then rented to Xu Shaoqing's father to use. The rent was just a maintenance fee. The main purpose was to use it privately and make people speechless.
Because Xu Shaoqing was not a member of the group, he had to rent the plane. However, he did not know whether the rent was needed or not. Dongfang Qingyu did not care about this. He was prepared to buy a private plane. He was more interested in the price, performance, and after-sales services of the plane.
"I'm really not good at this. After getting off the plane, I will introduce a foreign friend to you. His family is a manufacturer of planes," Xu Shaoqing said.
The chef on the plane was hired from France. His monthly salary was 20,000 US dollars. As long as Xu Shaoqing's father needed to use the plane, he would have to go abroad and deal with foreign clients. He could only cater to the taste of foreigners and eat western food.
Dongfang Qingyu was not interested in western food, but he could still tolerate it occasionally. Zhang Lu'er liked steak and enjoyed it very much. The Italian noodles were also her favorite food. This chef was very suitable for her taste.
This time, Dongfang Qingyu had sent four people to Europe. He, Zhang Lu'er, the legal consultant of the legal department of the company, Wang Wei, the temporary head of the foreign affairs of the company, Bao Yangze, and the domestic company were still in the process of establishing offices. Bao Yangze had already started working.
Xu Shaoqing also had four people with him. Xu Shaoqing, the legal consultant, the driver, and the bodyguard, as well as the secretary and assistant.
When the plane landed, Zhang Lu'er thought it was Germany. When she saw the words on the airport, she was surprised to find that it was actually France. She was a little confused.
"Just follow me. Don't worry, I can't bear to sell you," Dongfang Qingyu said with a smile.
