YM778.TV Chapter 18 - General Manager Lu?
Everyone glared at Lu Feng with cold eyes, like watching a monkey about to perform. Jiang Xiaoyan was anxious about him going to the stage alone. She wanted to stand up and help him say a few words; however, she was pressed down by Lu Feng before she could stand up.
"If you want to hear from me about business, I\'ll talk if you can understand it." Lu Feng said, speaking from Jiang Xiaoyan’s side.
All the faces in the room were severe. The boss temperament emerged from the supposed performer, the personality that took many years to develop. The audience was stunned.
C oming back to the sneering crowd, excellent feeling ah !
"You are bluffing. Tell me which industry will rise in the next few years." Mr. Zheng asked, tidying up his suit. His expression was full of arrogance. He did not intend to fool around anymore.
Lu Feng nodded and said, “Judgement of the future industrial situation cannot be dependent on the current one. It is not only to judge the domestic demand but also to pay attention to the direction of the international wind. The necessities industry will inevitably form a huge gap; however, the profit will be low in the long run. As the technology industry is small, the market competition will be particularly fierce there."
A few people at the dinner table furrowed their brows hearing this because they did not understand. Zheng always handled service trade. He could not even understand product design patterns seeing the city\'s clothing needs.
As for the women, they are employees of state-owned enterprises. They did not even know what the market was. In their eyes, they hold the iron rice bowl1 and are always many times better than the regular workers.
Little did they know that the market economy would rise in the next few years, and their iron rice bowl would be smashed.
At the entrance of the stairs, a man in his forties came up. When he heard Lu Feng\'s words, he stood where he was and stared at him in a daze.
"If you want to create a big market, you need to upgrade your technology. Technical barriers will limit the market competition to a few companies. When the time comes, the game of winner gets all. What will happen in this case? The company will have a monopoly over that item."
"You can evaluate the value of your technology at ten times its price; after that, you can attract more talents to invest in the next round of technological innovation and continue to lead."
"For example, we all know that TV sets are available, but they are costly. If we make technological breakthroughs in the next few years, this enterprise will have the right to market pricing and start mass production. High profit means high income. We will recruit talents for the next round of technological innovation!"
"Who will buy it at a high price?" He Zhen seemed to seize the loophole in Lu Feng\'s words and retorted.
"Is a car expensive? People still buy Santanas for worth $2700, and after the market expansion, mass production will greatly reduce the cost. The early stage is the dividend period. With the increase of market competition, the prices will reduce, which is the inevitable result of market competition."
Jiang Xiaoyan opened her eyes wide and looked at Lu Feng as if she was looking at a ghost. She understood every word in his mouth, but the sentences formed by those words were utterly unknown to her; she could not understand.
When did his man know so much?
A table full of people looking at Lu Feng wanted to retort, but they did not know what to say. They did not understand anything that Lu Feng said. After a long time, Boss Sun asked," How much money do you have now?"
Everyone seemed to catch the painful point, and their faces returned to complacency, asking," Yes, President Lu has said so much. You must be worth tens of millions, right?"
"Not tens of millions, or you wouldn\'t be fit to sit with me." Lu Feng said indifferently.
"Oh, in the end, you are just a freeloader. You\'re just a jerk. What are you pretending for? To be able to sit here and give your face and talk to us equals!?" Chief Niu snorted coldly and continued," wait a while till Zhao comes, both of you should have a good chat in this high-level business language, people can learn a lot."
Everyone said one sentence after another, mocking Lu Feng. The words were full of sarcasm, every one of them just decided to not care about anything but the money one has.
The waiter started serving.
The man standing at the stairs walked over and asked, "They\'re all here?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at the voice and stood up. Their expressions turned into respectful and smiling faces. Wang Lan noticed everyone’s reaction with pride.
"Let me introduce you to Chief Niu\'s family member." Wang Lan introduced.
Division Chief Niu hurriedly stepped forward and held President Zhao\'s hand. He bowed slightly and greeted, "Hello, Chief Zhao."
"This is Chief Zheng\'s relative. As I\'ve told you before, they are in the textile business."
"Hello, President Zhao!"
Everyone’s greeting was polite. Xiao Li also stood up and moved forward. She kept sending glances at Jiang Xiaoyan. It was not just for a meal that she came here today, and it would be best to get along with him.
"Go and shake hands with him." Jiang Xiaoyan whispered.
Lu Feng shook his head and sat there silently.
"Do you think that they are only shaking hands? Let\'s see what kind of trash your man is." He Zhen said eccentrically.
Jiang Xiaoyan knew that her family was poor, so she had to stick up for Chief Zhao and curry favor. She looked at Lu Feng angrily and handed him some money. She stood up, preparing herself to talk to the chief.
When a woman cannot rely on a man, she can only act on her own.
After some time, everyone had greeted President Zhao, leaving only Lu Feng\'s family. He was polite to everyone; Wang Lan said, "Have a seat. That family is only here to eat. Don’t bother."
Jiang Xiaoyan had already stood up, she stretched out her hand. "Hello, President Zhao."
President Zhao looked at her and asked, "Who are you?"
"She\'s my wife!" Lu Feng raised his head and spoke.
When everyone heard this, they almost laughed out loud. They really thought that Lu Feng had a lot of cards to play, but he even used his own name to play around. Chief Zheng thought that he had a good relationship with Chief Zhao, so he insisted," Don\'t bother. He\'s just someone who\'s here to play around."
Everyone apart from the two slowly took their seats, but the next scene shocked everyone.
The indifference on President Zhao\'s face quickly disappeared, and he put on a fawning smile. He held Jiang Xiaoyan\'s hand with both his hands and said, "Hello! Welcome, welcome, take a seat!"
Wang Lan was frozen on the spot, not to mention President Zheng\'s family and Boss Sun\'s family. She did not know why President Zhao treated Jiang Xiaoyan so seriously.
"President Zhao, she\'s just a small worker in the electronics factory. Aren’t you perhaps mistaken?" Chief Niu reminded him.
"Shut up. Do you have the right to speak here?" President Zhao scolded coldly.
Everyone\'s faces were filled with shock. Their hearts were in turmoil. They could not comprehend what had happened, and their eyes were wide open as they watched. Lu Feng was the only one sitting there calmly, with a teasing smile.
President Zhao let go of Jiang Xiaoyan\'s hand and looked at Lu Feng." From what you said just now, I’m genuinely enlightened. As expected of a boss with a considerable background. It\'s not something that people like us can compare to."
Big boss?
Wang Lan\'s mind was filled with question marks. Where did her arrogant husband go? Why was he so humble in front of such a b*stard? This was too much embarrassment for her.
"Elder Zhao, what\'s wrong? Do you have the wrong person? He\'s just a b*stard, relying on his wife to support him."
Lu Feng looked at Zhao Buhuan and smiled. "They’re just a few words. We\'re in the midst of an era of change, in the middle of the commencement of a new era where even pigs can fly. Only people with an open mindset can stand on top of tomorrow\'s tide."
"CEO Lu is right. I think with your capital and vision, and you have a place at the top." Zhao Buhuan smiled.
President Zhang?
Zhao Qian called Lu Feng, a good-for-nothing as President Lu?
Everyone present felt their nerves being challenged. Their mouths were wide open, and their faces were filled with shock; even Jiang Xiaoyan was stunned on the spot!
