On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing went out to make a lot of money and paid their New Year greetings to the old seniors.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the family came to Feicheng.
Chen Jiahong was very happy. He hugged Teng Yang and Jin Yu, making the two children laugh.
While eating, Xiao Yunhai asked, "Grandpa, when will your martial arts school start? Have you found the students? "
Chen Jiahong's eyes lit up at the mention of the martial arts school. He said excitedly, "It will start after the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. I went to dozens of orphanages and personally picked more than six hundred children. They will be my first batch of students. "
"What about the teachers? Have you hired all of them? "
"Of course. The martial arts will be taught by me, Meng Fang, and a few of your older senior brothers. I asked your uncle to hire many good teachers for the cultural classes. I believe there will be no problem. My goal is to nurture these children into pillars of society who are proficient in both the pen and the sword. "
Xiao Yunhai gave Chen Jiahong a thumbs up, and said: "Grandfather, you're really too amazing. This is a good thing with boundless virtue."
Liang Jiahong smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you, millionaire. This school doesn't charge tuition. It's purely a money-losing business. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to build it. "
Xiao Yunhai giggled and said: "Look at what you're saying. Your grandson lacks everything now, but he doesn't lack money. The school's annual expenses are at most twenty million. It's not even enough for me to earn in a day. When these children grow up, I'll let them work in my company. It can be considered as keeping the goodies within the family. "
Liang Jiahong nodded and raised his wine glass. He clinked it with Xiao Yunhai and drank it in one gulp.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Yunhai returned to Beijing alone to participate in the Hua Xia government work meeting.
During the group discussion, Xiao Yunhai saw the Literature Association's president, Zhang Xuanlin.
Seeing Xiao Yunhai, Zhang Xuanlin's wrinkled face broke into a smile. He took the initiative to shake hands with Xiao Yunhai and said, "Mr. Xiao, I would like to thank you on behalf of our Hua Xia's literary world."
Back at the Literature and Art Awards Ceremony, Xiao Yunhai and Zhang Xuanlin had discussed that he would fork out the money and the Literature Association would contribute to organizing a Hua Xia Literature Grand Prix every year.
Less than three days after the ceremony ended, Xiao Yunhai got someone to pass a bank check to Zhang Xuanlin as the prize money for the 2004 Literature Grand Prix. Zhang Xuanlin was very touched and kept thanking Xiao Yunhai over the phone.
Now, the Grand Prix had already begun. With the stimulation of money, the Hua Xia people quickly set off a literary craze. In the past few months, the Literature Association had received countless works in various forms. Although most of the works were very ordinary, a small number of them were very outstanding, comparable to famous writers.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Teacher Zhang, you've thanked me so many times that I'm sick of hearing it. How was the Grand Prix this time? Did any good works appear? "
Zhang Xuanlin chuckled and said, "I can only say that the experts are among the people. Usually, we wouldn't have noticed it, but now that we've discovered it, many buried genius writers have suddenly appeared. The things they wrote are really admirable. "
Wang Huatao, who came with Zhang Xuanlin, added, "That's right. The one that left the deepest impression on me was an author named Canghai Yueming. He wrote an essay, a poem, and a short story. Man, if they were placed in last year's award ceremony, these three essays would at least get two third prize and one second prize. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "How old is this awesome person? He's actually so good. "
Xiao Yunhai had plagiarized classic works from his previous life, while this person relied on his own talent. The two of them were worlds apart. He was definitely an existence that Xiao Yunhai could only hope to reach.
Zhang Xuanlin smiled bitterly, "He's only 18 years old and hasn't taken the college entrance exam."
Xiao Yunhai's mouth was wide open. He was so shocked that his eyeballs were about to pop out, "Teacher Zhang, you're joking, right? 18 years old, he's simply a genius among geniuses. If he had a good teacher, then this guy would soar to the sky. "
Wang Huatao snorted and said, "Some people are thick-skinned and used their position to find that kid early on and took him in as a student. At the same time, they made an exception and admitted him to Beijing University's literature department. "
Zhang Xuanlin said proudly, "This is called striking first to gain the upper hand. That kid's name is Cheng Yu. He comes from a village and has loved Hua Xia literature since he was young. No matter if it's a big exam or a small exam, he always gets full marks in literature. I took a look at his essay and it was indeed very beautiful. It's just that he can't do well in other subjects. He has never passed mathematics, physics, and chemistry. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "If he's proficient in these subjects, then I can only say that this kid is a monster."
The three of them chatted for a while. Xiao Yunhai saw Wang Guoan, Chen Qingqing, and other seniors of the entertainment circle walk in. He excused himself and quickly went over to greet them.
Wang Guoan smiled, "Yunhai, the application for our new director's support fund has been settled. The examiners are the most famous directors, actors, and film school teachers in the industry. I plan to announce this to the media after the meeting. I hope that you can come with me. What do you think? "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Of course, no problem. I hope that we can find a truly talented director."
Chen Qingqing said, "Hua Xia is so big. I believe that there will definitely be one."
The discussion in the literature circle was still a discussion where everyone proposed a proposal and then everyone spoke freely about it.
At the meeting, Xiao Yunhai was praised by Zhang Xuanlin for donating money to organize the literature competition.
Looking at him, the crowd could not help sighing as they recalled the scene of both of them fighting at the conference last year. Money really did make the world go round.
After attending the literature circle meeting for more than an hour, Xiao Yunhai was invited to a business meeting by the staff.
As soon as he walked into the meeting room, he heard a familiar voice.
"Yunhai, you're finally here. I say, why aren't you here, the world's richest man? What are you doing at someone else's literature circle? "
The one who spoke was Wu Yifa. Last year, Yun Yi's shopping website was a global hit. As the major shareholder, he had more than five hundred billion US dollars in assets and became the second richest man in Hua Xia, second only to Xiao Yunhai. Hence, even his seat was changed to the seat of honor.
Xiao Yunhai replied, "I'm a serious writer. It's normal for me to go there."
Wu Yifa said in disdain, "Oh, come on. There's a spring onion in a pig's snout, what are you pretending for? As the world's richest man, you'll never be able to wash off the stench of money in this lifetime. Don't you think so, everyone? "
"Yes," the crowd replied in unison before bursting into laughter.
Xiao Yunhai sat next to Wu Yifa and said pretentiously, "We're in the middle of a meeting. Can we be more serious?"
Wu Yifa said, "Then let's be more serious. I just made a bet with Mr. Xu Wanqi on whether e-commerce can replace traditional store operations. The bet is a hundred million US dollars and the deadline is 2010. As long as e-commerce accounts for more than fifty percent of the retail market, I'll win. If I can't, I'll lose. Old Xiao, what do you think? "
Xiao Yunhai was stunned, his mind quickly recalling the bet between Jack Ma and the richest man at the time, Wang Jianlin, on Taobao in his past life. It was the same question, a hundred million US dollars, but Wu Yifa's bet was even more ruthless.
Xu Wanqi was the most famous retailer in Hua Xia, with hundreds of billions in assets and thousands of Wanqi supermarkets across the country. Go to Wanqi if you want to buy something was the most popular advertising slogan in recent years.
Xu Wanqi smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, as the founder of Yun Yi Shopping Network, do you also think that e-commerce can replace supermarkets and stores?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "I don't think anyone can win this bet."
Everyone was stunned. Wu Yifa asked curiously, "Old Xiao, what do you mean?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "I think e-commerce with Yun Yi Shopping Network and Stell E-Commerce Network as the representative will develop like a volcanic eruption in the next few years. By then, almost all businesses will be able to complete 'order' and 'payment' through online orders, but consumers will have to go online to fulfill the service. Old Wu, Mr. Xu, let me ask you, how do you plan to differentiate whether an order is online or offline? Yun Yi Shopping Network is a revolutionary innovation to traditional sales, but it can't be separated from offline services. Therefore, I think the biggest possibility in the future is for both sides to merge and develop together. "
