Chapter 877 – The Old Man wants to meet you

“Director Fang, why are you calling?” Feng Yu 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 10 am. The Old Man wants to meet you.”

Ah~~~

The Old Man wants to meet me?

Feng Yu thought for a while. Could it be the advertisement slots auction had triggered him? But there is nothing wrong with it, and I had spent more money on the slots. Is it because of me targeting those Taiwanese companies?

“Ok. I will be there on time.”

The next morning, Dong Xuebing appeared at the entrance of Zhongnanhai at 9.50 am. Someone came out to bring Dong Xuebing in, and Dong Xuebing looked at his watch when he was seated. There’s still 5 minutes 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 no one was helping him and did not use a wheelchair. Feng Yu quickly stood up and went over to help him, but was stopped by the doctor and nurses.

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

“Xiao Feng, sit down.” The old man’s eyes were cloudy, and his voice was no longer as powerful as before. But Feng Yu could tell he was not suffering from any illness.

“Thank you, Chairman.” Feng Yu sat down with complicated feelings.

In Feng Yu’s previous life, this old man will no longer be around after this coming Lunar New Year and could not fulfill his greatest wish to see the unification of China.

During the return of Hong Kong, the old man did not appear in public. Many people said that the military exercise was too exciting for him, and there were also rumors that his health was failing and knew his time was almost up. That’s why he thought of using military force to take 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 in the past two years. Why? Your business in China is not good?”

“Of course not. I have a dream. I want to earn money from overseas to strengthen our economy. Our economy is doing well now, and there are plenty of opportunities. I will still continue my businesses here.” Feng Yu bowed slightly and replied.

“I heard you started to manufacture mobile phones 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 answer and did not continue on that topic.

“I dare not say China’s phones are better than overseas’ phones. But I am confident that our phone’s sales and profits will be one of the top 3 in the world in 3 years and become the world’s number one in another 3 years!”

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

“You are confident. Young men have more spirit than us.” The old man nodded.

“My confidence is from my ability. I am Chinese, and I have the support of the country and my engineers. If I still can’t achieve this goal, I might as well don’t start this business.” Feng Yu puffed out his chest and said proudly.

“Hahaha… well said! You are Chinese, and the whole country will be your backing!” The old man said loudly.

But the old man might be too excited and started coughing badly. The doctors and nurses panicked and start to massage his back while staring at Feng Yu.

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

Feng Yu’s grandfather is also old, but maybe he was always in a good mood, and he is very healthy. In his precious life, Feng Yu’s grandfather should have passed away now. But now, the doctors at his sister’s hospital told him that his grandfather can easily live for another 10 years!

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

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

The Old Man caught his breath and pushed the doctor’s hand away. He continued his questions. “Xiao Feng, I heard you are good in economics and business. That Beidacang Group is your idea?”

Feng Yu quickly waved his hand. “No. It’s Party Secretary Xu and Party Secretary Zhang’s idea. I only offer some suggestions as a businessman.”

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

“Then give some suggestions on our country’s economy from a businessman’s point of view.” The Old Man laughed.

Feng Yu was troubled. “Chairman, you think too highly of me. I am only a small-time businessman and can offer some suggestions when it comes to business or companies. I don’t know anything about the country’s development.”

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

“You brat! I am around. Just speak your mind.” The Old Man laughed.

“Ok.” Feng Yu looked at the rest of the people in the room and saw no one stopping him. He continued. “Being an industrialized country is the most traditional route. Our country’s industrial development is fast, but there are lots of hidden dangers. Many companies had reached the state where they must change themselves. It might be painful, but there are more benefits than flaws. The changes must be implemented fast! Also, we can learn from Japan and South Korea’s developments, which is to consolidate the companies’ resources and merge them to increase their competitiveness internationally…”

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

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

He laughed and said. “I have no freedom at all. I can’t even have a smoke!”

Feng Yu quickly said. “Chairman, you should try 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 to visit my company there.”

“Hahaha, I know my body well. I don’t think I can last until then.”

“Chairman, you will surely see Hong Kong’s return to China!” Feng Yu said.
