Li Dong and Yang Shaopeng talked about the difference between private enterprises and state-owned enterprises. At first, they were just chatting casually, but later on, the others joined in.
There were not only private entrepreneurs present. Wang Minghui and Lan Xingguo were all state-owned entrepreneurs.
Although private entrepreneurs had the advantage, Wang Minghui was not afraid.
When Yang Shaopeng showed an envious attitude of a state-owned entrepreneur again, Wang Minghui teased, "Old Brother Yang, do you feel guilty for saying that? What do you mean by we are comfortable and envious of us? It's not like you haven't been the head of a state-owned enterprise before. Don't you know what it feels like? "
"It's difficult for private enterprises, but the country has been regulating them all these years. Letting the country retreat and letting the people advance is the mainstream."
"You big bosses are free and unfettered. You can do whatever you want. You can fire whoever you want. The money you earn is also your own."
"Can we compare to you? Take Brother Lan for example. Sichuan Airlines is rich. Look at what Brother Lan smokes and what you guys smoke. When we smoke, there are a lot of people staring at us. Tell me, who is envious of who? "
Everyone laughed, but Yang Shaopeng was not to be outdone. "That's not the same. We also spend our money wisely. We use our own money. You guys don't use your own. Look at Old Chen. He's the boss of a multi-billion corporation. How pitiful. He doesn't even have clothes to wear. He comes to eat in an undershirt. Unlike you guys, all of you wear suits and leather shoes. "
Li Bai's CEO, who was called out, smiled bitterly. "Old Yang, why are you talking about me? Am I wronged?"
As a southerner, the temperature in Guangdong Province had long exceeded 20 degrees.
Chen Kaixuan thought about it. He was only registering this time, so he did not dress too formally. Although he did not wear an undershirt like Yang Shaopeng said, he only wore a shirt that was not considered new.
And as the head of a state-owned enterprise, both Wang Minghui and Lan Xingguo wore standard suits and leather shoes.
Even if it was a little hot, the two did not take it off.
The state-owned enterprises paid more attention to their appearance, unlike the others, including Li Dong, who only wore casual clothes.
Everyone laughed again, but it was a kind laugh.
To be honest, at their level, there was no need to care too much about these issues.
It was fine for formal occasions, but in private, such as gatherings and meals, they could do whatever they wanted. There was no need to look at other people's eyes.
Just as everyone was joking around, a clamor came from the door.
Because there were quite a lot of students in the class this time, everyone felt that the room was too stuffy. With Zhang Lan clearing the room, everyone set up a table in the hall.
No one came to disturb them because they had hung a "Temporarily Closed" sign at the door.
However, it was unknown whether this wave of guests didn't pay attention to the sign or didn't care about the sign. In any case, they directly barged in.
The restaurant manager was explaining, but the customers who had just arrived didn't care. The noise was getting louder and louder.
Zhang Lan, who was chatting with everyone, said apologetically, "Everyone, I'm really sorry. I'll go take care of it."
Lan Xingguo smiled and said, "It's fine, Xiao Zhang. If they really can't handle it, let them come in and eat. We're about to leave anyway, so don't ruin your restaurant's reputation because of us. "
Zhang Lan hurriedly responded, but did not dare to take it seriously.
There were 20 to 30 billionaires in the hall. Although everyone said that it was fine and didn't mind, some of the things they were talking about were not good for others to hear.
It was better for the bosses of private enterprises, but if the bosses of state-owned enterprises were recognized, there would be a lot of trouble.
Since Zhang Lan had cleared the room, she wouldn't give up halfway. Otherwise, everyone would look down on her.
When she went over to take care of it, everyone didn't take it seriously and continued talking.
Li Dong and Yang Shaopeng chatted a lot. Both companies were in the transportation business. Although one was in the sea and the other was in the land, there were still some similarities.
Moreover, both companies didn't have any business conflicts, which was even better.
Haifeng mainly did the transportation of large items, which was also a group company. Far away, it was the express transportation of small items, which were all private companies. Both parties didn't have any competition and could be considered in the same industry. Naturally, they chatted more happily.
As they chatted, Lan Xingguo also joined in the fun and said, "You two are chatting without me? One of you is in the sea, the other in the land, and me in the air. Isn't this like three armies gathered together? "
Li Dong and Yang Shaopeng suddenly laughed and pulled Lan Xingguo to sit next to them.
After chatting for a while, when Lan Xingguo mentioned that Sichuan Airlines was going to be restructured this year, Li Dong suddenly asked, "Brother Lan, does this mean that Sichuan Airlines is accepting private enterprises to invest?"
Lan Xingguo smiled and said, "Not now, but since the establishment of Sichuan Airlines, it is actually a national joint venture. But the previous Ginkgo Restaurant is preparing to withdraw its investment, and we are discussing with other groups about investing. "
Li Dong was a little tempted and said, "Brother Li, how about playing with me?"
Lan Xingguo looked at him and shook his head after a while. "Brother Li, it's not that I don't want to play with you, but I can't make the decision on this matter. Far away is not a Sichuan enterprise, and it's very difficult to enter. I think you better not think about it. Let me be clear with you. Even if you can invest, it will only be a few shares at most. You can't play a decisive role in Sichuan Airlines. At this time, are you still willing to spend a few hundred million to invest? "
Li Dong was a little disappointed and said, "Brother, you also know that Far away Express is doing land transportation. But now, efficiency is the issue. Sometimes, transportation is too slow. If I can invest in Sichuan Airlines, Far away Express will cooperate with Sichuan Airlines. At that time, I will feel more at ease. I will hand over the southwest shipping to Sichuan Airlines, and with you at the helm, I will be a shareholder of Sichuan Airlines. At that time, we will really become a family. "
Seeing that Li Dong was serious, Lan Xingguo couldn't help but ask, "You really have this thought?"
Li Dong raised his brows and said, "Of course, Brother. Do you think I'm lying to you? Thinking back to the past, I even thought that Far away Express will set up its own airline in the next few years. But the domestic airline's audit is too strict, and the investment is too big, so I didn't dare to mention it. "
Lan Xingguo couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised, "You're really courageous! To be honest, I also feel that air transportation will be the mainstream in the future. With the cost reduction in the past few years, the cost of shipping is not much higher than vehicle transportation, but the efficiency is very different. If Far away Express wants to expand, setting up its own airline is really a way out. But just like what you said, if a domestic private enterprise wants to set up their own airline, it will take a few years just to pass the audit. Since you are really interested, then I will help you take a look. But I don't dare to guarantee anything, and I can only try. "
Li Dong quickly said, "Then, I will have to trouble you, Brother. You must pay attention to this matter."
Seeing that the two had almost reached a deal in a few words, Yang Shaopeng said gloomily, "I say, Brother Lan, aren't you trying to take advantage of me? I was just about to talk to Brother Li about the cooperation with Haifeng. Now that you've done this, I have no advantage at all."
Lan Xingguo laughed and said, "Old Yang, forget about your side. What's the use of shipping Far away Express? The shipping side can still connect with their shopping mall. Can you do it on your side? "
Yang Shaopeng was about to speak when a loud noise came from not far away.
…
"What's wrong? Are you chasing us away? Are you trying to bully your customers? "
"If they can come here to eat, why can't we come?"
"Did you not pay or what? Treating us to lunch, who do you think you are? Do you think I need your money? "
"Let me tell you, we will definitely eat here today! Coming to your place to eat is giving you face. You are just a small restaurant, and you dare to put on airs! "
…
Li Dong and the rest quickly looked back and saw Zhang Lan explaining to the newcomers with a face full of smiles.
But this new wave of customers was obviously unwilling. Zhang Lan probably wanted to pay them to go somewhere else to eat. But these people were not short of money, and they were even more unhappy because of this.
A few young people were making a ruckus, then pushed Zhang Lan away and went straight to the restaurant.
As they walked, the leading young man shouted, "Serve the food! Serve your best. If we don't like the food, your restaurant will close down in the future! "
Lan Xingguo and the rest frowned slightly, but they did not speak.
They had seen this kind of thing many times. There was no need to persuade them. The more they persuaded, the more troublesome it would be. It was better to let Zhang Lan send them away.
Seeing these young people making a ruckus, Lan Xingguo looked at Xiang Bing and said, "Director, why don't we disperse today and gather again on the day school reopens?"
It was noon, and they were not in the mood to eat or drink.
In addition, a portion of the students had not arrived yet, and now there was a group of young people causing trouble. Everyone wanted to disperse.
Xiang Bing saw Zhang Lan's helpless face and thought for a while. He nodded and said, "Then when Zhang Lan comes, we will disperse."
"That's fine."
Everyone nodded. Lan Xingguo was preparing to return to his seat when someone suddenly said, "Old man, there are too many chairs over there. Bring a few for us."
Lan Xingguo's face darkened. He looked back and saw a young man with a ponytail talking to him.
Lan Xingguo was a soldier and could not stand these people. He said unhappily, "Is this what your parents taught you? Old man, old man, who are you calling? "
The man with the ponytail said unhappily, "I'm just asking you to bring a chair. Why do you have so much nonsense to say? Do you need to care what my parents taught me? Who do you think you are? "
Lan Xingguo said seriously, "Then I really want to be serious with you today! Let's not talk about how to address me. Do I have the obligation to help you move chairs? Also, you are making such a ruckus in public. Where are your manners? "
Xiang Bing and the rest saw Lan Xingguo and these young people getting into a fight. Wu Yajun, who was sitting at the side, hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Lan, forget it. We are dispersing anyway."
They were all businessmen. It was better to avoid trouble.
Besides, it would not look good if he made a ruckus with these young people. Wu Yajun wanted to keep the peace.
However, Lan Xingguo was also stubborn. He shook his head and said, "Little Wu, don't bother about this. I still have to reason with them today!"
He was unwilling to let it go, but the young people opposite him did not want to let it go.
