Chapter 877 - The Old Man wants to meet you


"Director Fang, why are you calling?" FengYu was curious as Director Fang should not be calling to have a chat with him.Could it be that Iron-Fist Zhu wants to meet him?


"You are in Beijing now?"


"That"s right. I had returned 2 days ago.What"s wrong?"


"Come to Zhongnanhai tomorrow morning at 10am. The Old Man wants to meet you."


Ah~~~


The Old Man wants to meet me?


Feng Yu thought for a while. Could it bethe advertis.e.m.e.nt slots auction had triggered him? But there is nothing wrongwith it, and I had spent more money on the slots. Is it because of me targetingthose Taiwanese companies?


"Ok. I will be there on time."


The next morning, Dong Xuebing appeared atthe entrance of Zhongnanhai at 9.50 am. Someone came out to bring Dong Xuebingin, and Dong Xuebing looked at his watch when he was seated. There"s still 5minutes to 10 am.


The door opened suddenly, and an old man,with a walking stick, walked in slowly.


The old man seemed to be struggling, but noone was helping him and did not use a wheelchair. Feng Yu quickly stood up andwent over to help him, but was stopped by the doctor and nurses.


The old man was a soldier all his life anddid not want others to look at his state now. He will never accept any helpfrom others when he can walk.


"Xiao Feng, sit down." The old man"s eyeswere cloudy, and his voice was no longer as powerful as before. But Feng Yucould tell he was not suffering from any illness.


"Thank you, Chairman." Feng Yu sat downwith complicated feelings.


In Feng Yu"s previous life, this old manwill no longer be around after this coming Lunar New Year and could not fulfillhis greatest wish to see the unification of China.


During the return of Hong Kong, the old mandid not appear in public. Many people said that the military exercise was tooexciting for him, and there were also rumors that his health was failing andknew his time was almost up. That"s why he thought of using military force totake back to China.


But all these plans were foiled by spies!Of course, the US also played a part.


"Xiao Feng, I heard you went to the US inthe past two years. Why? Your business in China is not good?"


"Of course not. I have a dream. I want toearn money from overseas to strengthen our economy. Our economy is doing wellnow, and there are plenty of opportunities. I will still continue my businesseshere." Feng Yu bowed slightly and replied.


"I heard you started to manufacture mobilephones now. Is our domestic produced mobile phone better than overseas ones?"The Old Man asked another question. Maybe he was pleased with Feng Yu"s answerand did not continue on that topic.


"I dare not say China"s phones are betterthan overseas" phones. But I am confident that our phone"s sales and profitswill be one of the top 3 in the world in 3 years and become the world"s numberone in another 3 years!"


Feng Yu had thought about this. It"s easyto beat other mobile phone companies except for Nokia and Motorola. But 6 yearsshould be enough for him to win these two companies.


"You are confident. Young men have morespirit than us." The old man nodded.


"My confidence is from my ability. I amChinese, and I have the support of the country and my engineers. If I stillcan"t achieve this goal, I might as well don"t start this business." Feng Yupuffed out his chest and said proudly.


"Hahaha… well said! You are Chinese, andthe whole country will be your backing!" The old man said loudly.


But the old man might be too excited andstarted coughing badly. The doctors and nurses panicked and start to ma.s.sagehis back while staring at Feng Yu.


Feng Yu felt helpless. What"s wrong withsaying something to cheer the old man up? But the old man"s health is too weak.


Feng Yu"s grandfather is also old, butmaybe he was always in a good mood, and he is very healthy. In his preciouslife, Feng Yu"s grandfather should have pa.s.sed away now. But now, the doctorsat his sister"s hospital told him that his grandfather can easily live foranother 10 years!


Feng Yu knew it is because his grandfatheris carefree and without worries. One of his grandchildren is a governmentservant and the other a successful businessman. His grandson-in-law is also asuccessful businessman and he has a great-grandson.


But the Old Man is different. Although hehad retired for many years, he still has lots of matters to worry about. He hadfought in the war and suffered many injuries before. Without this group ofdoctors and nurses around, he might have pa.s.sed away a long time ago.


The Old Man caught his breath and pushedthe doctor"s hand away. He continued his questions. "Xiao Feng, I heard you aregood in economics and business. That Beidacang Group is your idea?"


Feng Yu quickly waved his hand. "No. It"sParty Secretary Xu and Party Secretary Zhang"s idea. I only offer somesuggestions as a businessman."


Feng Yu had given out this credit, and hewill not admit it. But he can"t deny it altogether.


"Then give some suggestions on ourcountry"s economy from a businessman"s point of view." The Old Man laughed.


Feng Yu was troubled. "Chairman, you thinktoo highly of me. I am only a small-time businessman and can offer somesuggestions when it comes to business or companies. I don"t know anything aboutthe country"s development."


Actually, Feng Yu can offer some ideas. Buthe is not suitable to say anything as he is only a commoner. He will offend alot of people if he really gives suggestions or ideas.


"You brat! I am around. Just speak yourmind." The Old Man laughed.


"Ok." Feng Yu looked at the rest of thepeople in the room and saw no one stopping him. He continued. "Being anindustrialized country is the most traditional route. Our country"s industrialdevelopment is fast, but there are lots of hidden dangers. Many companies hadreached the state where they must change themselves. It might be painful, b.u.t.there are more benefits than flaws. The changes must be implemented fast! Also,we can learn from j.a.pan and South Korea"s developments, which is to consolidatethe companies" resources and merge them to increase their compet.i.tivenessinternationally…"


Feng Yu spoke for almost half an hour, andthe Old Man asked about many details. The staff nearby used a pen voicerecorder to record their conversation.


The Old Man was in a good mood and wants tosmoke. But the staff stopped him.


He laughed and said. "I have no freedom atall. I can"t even have a smoke!"


Feng Yu quickly said. "Chairman, you shouldtry to relax and enjoy life. You had contributed your whole life to the nation,and you should take a break. After Hong Kong"s return, I will invite you tovisit my company there."


"Hahaha, I know my body well. I don"t thinkI can last until then."


"Chairman, you will surely see Hong Kong"sreturn to China!" Feng Yu said.
