Chapter 1574: Enthusiastic
The wind from the Arabian Sea blows into the India Gate, blows along the Marine Drive, and then disappears helplessly among the high-rise buildings in the city.
Sayles, a reporter from Awakening Daily, is the only Indian reporter who has interviewed Feng Yiping so far. The most direct impression of this dry season afternoon is that it is hot.
He sat in the air-conditioned interview car, opened the door halfway, and urged the assistants holding equipment, "Hurry up, hurry up,"
The photojournalist sent by the newspaper to work with him today was Dixit, the best in the agency. He jumped into the car with his bag on his back and looked at his watch. It was just past one o'clock, and Feng Yiping's speech was only at half past two. conduct.
"It's still early, are you in such a hurry?"
Cyrus closed the car door with a bang and patted the driver's headrest, "Drive."
"If you had been to the airport yesterday, you would have known that it is not too early to leave at this time,"
"Really? I don't think his speech would be very attractive," Dixit said.
"Just listening, what's the use? Listening to them beautify the process of becoming rich, how will it help the audience? Right?"
"We have also witnessed the speeches of so many successful people. Think about it now, is there any speech that impressed you and gained you?"
Cyrus thought for a while, and it was really like that. Listening to the speeches of successful people, how they overcame failure after failure, how they overcame one problem after another, and finally succeeded, at that time, can really make you excited and make you happy. You cheer up.
But soon after, it will be like the movie you watched last night at the movie theater with exciting fighting and you thought it was a good movie, but as soon as you walk to the door of the movie theater, you can’t quite remember what the movie is about. I have completely forgotten the content of their speeches.
The one that impressed me most was the speech given by the beautiful female star of Bollywood.
Of course, what impressed me most was not her speech, but herself.
However, as the only reporter among all the reporters in India who asked Feng Yiping questions, Sellers instinctively defended Feng Yiping - because of this relationship, to a certain extent, promoting Feng Yiping also promoted him. Own.
"But he is Feng Yiping," he said.
"So what if he is Feng Yiping? Can we still make these speeches new?" Dixit said.
"We cannot rule out this possibility. He is Feng Yiping who is good at creating miracles. Maybe he will perform beyond everyone's expectations," Sellers said.
"Miracles? In front of an ancient civilization with a long history like ours, in front of our splendid culture passed down for thousands of years, what miracles can he create? Is it to emphasize in front of so many college students that I am the most famous rich man than you? How many more billions of dollars are you worth?”
Cyrus, who had no confidence in his heart, simply said nothing and only looked at the clock tower of his alma mater, which has become a landmark in Mumbai. It is a replica of London's Big Ben and is 80 meters high.
The car drove all the way to the bustling South Mumbai. They passed the square in front of the school. Although it was the hottest time of the day, there were still many energetic guys gathered here, playing cricket.
Cyrus smiled, remembering that he was the same way back then, with so much energy that he had nowhere to vent.
The University of Bombay, founded in 1857, is one of the three comprehensive universities with a long history in India, together with the University of Madras and the University of Calcutta.
One of the most direct manifestations of its long history is that the campus is full of leafy trees, some of which are palm trees that can even rival the school's famous clock tower.
As soon as they entered the campus, they immediately felt that the temperature had dropped a few degrees, and Dixit was already capturing those beautiful female college students with his camera.
The most famous alumnus of this university is undoubtedly Mahatma Gandhi, but if we look at daily attention, the one who attracts the most attention is another alumnus, a national treasure of India, the most beautiful woman in Bollywood, and the most beautiful woman in the world. Beautiful beauty, Aishwarya Rai.
So Dixit often comes here often, but naturally he can never find another Aishwarya Rai.
Sellers was not as relaxed as he was. When the interview car drove to the auditorium, he suddenly felt that the weather was a few degrees hotter. At this time, the door of the auditorium was as crowded as the Ganges River during the Kumbh Mela.
The security department did not seem to have expected such a situation, and their measures were not very effective. The scene at the entrance of the auditorium was as messy as the Ganges River at the Kumbh Mela.
He took an assistant with him and struggled to squeeze in next to a person who looked like a person in charge. "We are the film crew of "Awakening Daily". Where is the media channel?"
As the largest newspaper in India, this sign usually works well no matter where it is, but today was obviously an exception. The security chief glanced at him, pointed at the young people around him and said, "Look at them. What channel do you think they don’t know about?”
The main force appearing here are naturally students from the University of Mumbai. How could they not be familiar with their own auditorium?
The person in charge waved his hand, "Either wait until they go in, or you can squeeze in now,"
Cyrus looked at the familiar faces in the crowded crowd who were also holding equipment. He felt that if he went in at this time, he might not be able to find a good shooting position. He dug his hand into his pocket and held the security director's hand. hand, "I just graduated from here five years ago. Look, is there any other way to find a place for us to shoot?"
The security supervisor quickly glanced at the sincerity in his hand, "Oh, it turns out he is an alumnus, and he is from the Awakening Daily,"
He lowered his voice and said, "At two o'clock, I will let you go through the VIP aisle. You can set up the equipment on the left side of the stage."
"Thank you." Looking at the crowded crowd in front of him, Cyrus was already very satisfied with the result.
He wiped the sweat from his head, returned to the interview car, and said to Dixit, who was a little dumbfounded, "It's done, I've got a good position for you."
"I didn't expect these young people to be so enthusiastic," Dixit said when faced with the scene in front of him, "I'll check the equipment first."
Such a scene also forced him to take it seriously.
Why are Feng Yiping's speeches so popular? In fact, it is easy to understand.
Whether it is China or India, the economic reforms carried out by the two countries more than ten years ago have provided many people with an upward path, and Feng Yiping is the one with the highest achievement among these people, and he is also working with these young people. The one who has the closest experience.
As the most open city in India, many citizens in Mumbai have become completely Westernized in their lifestyles and habits, and the same is true in terms of concepts.
These young people in Bombay and those studying at Bombay University are as eager to succeed as those in Europe and America.
Therefore, like those young people in Europe and the United States, Feng Yiping is regarded as an idol of entrepreneurship.
How could you not be excited to have such an opportunity to meet your idol face to face, and for free?
They hope that their idols can share their successful experiences, they hope to draw strength from their idols, or they have no other thoughts, they just want to see their idols with their own eyes.
…………
Marika was a little depressed at noon. She stayed at home and looked at the classic Indian delicacies she had prepared, feeling depressed.
All the things he had carefully prepared were of no use today. Not only was Feng Yiping not free at noon, he also had no time to dine with her in the evening.
Could it be that the distance that once seemed so close that your thighs could touch your thighs is now so distant?
Didn't he seem quite friendly in the morning?
She recalled Owen's words, "He is a responsible man,"
Therefore, he must also be a responsible person for his work. Today's schedule must be very full. He is not like those people who want to put aside all business as soon as they see him. He just wants to have dinner with him and buy gifts for him. A guy who is happy with himself.
I like such a successful and responsible man!
She picked up an apple from the fruit plate, made it for lunch, and went to change clothes excitedly. It took her nearly an hour to come out, and she excitedly said to her assistant, "Let's go to the University of Mumbai."
It's unrealistic to expect him to be the one to do it. You have to do it yourself.
…………
At this time, Mukesh Ambani, who was about to go to the company, was stopped by his twin daughter, "Dad, we want to go to the speech of the young Mr. Feng," said his son Aka What to say.
Seeing that his daughter next to him also looked eager to try, Mukesh immediately said simply, "No,"
He is very protective of his two children and rarely lets them appear in public.
"But, he is our idol," the son did not give up.
My daughter also held his arm and acted like a baby...
At the same time, Mittal's son Andya was also driving on his way to Mumbai University.
He felt a little complicated about Feng Yiping, whom he had never met before.
First of all, the other party has indeed created some remarkable achievements, but he is not bad either!
Andy graduated from the prestigious Wharton Business School in the United States in 1996. He joined his own company in 1997 and has been in charge of the M&A department since then.
You must know that their steel company mainly relies on mergers and acquisitions to grow and develop. Therefore, in the process of growing the family company, he is a real hero. Several mergers and acquisitions he presided over were also very successful.
If he and Feng Yiping were on the same page, he believed that his business talents would not necessarily be far inferior to his.
He made an impromptu decision to listen to Feng Yiping's speech. He really wanted to know what was so special about this lucky man who was regarded as an idol by many young people.
I hope you don't disappoint me, he thought.
…………
The protagonist of the speech, Feng Yiping, was also on his way to the University of Mumbai at this time. The person accompanying him in the car was Sean.
"The history of the University of Mumbai is 20 years older than the history of the Tata Group. It has more than 70 branches and nearly 20 research institutes. There are currently nearly 80,000 students on campus. That is the school's clock tower, which is currently used as a library. Pavilion," Sean introduced.
"Oh," Feng Yiping nodded, then was stunned, "80,000 students?"
"Yes," Sean affirmed, "it's still increasing,"
This really left Feng Yiping speechless. A university with 80,000 students? Are there 20,000 students in Tsinghua University now?
"Over there, that's the High Court," Sean said, pointing to a building adjacent to the university.
Feng Yiping looked at the buildings at the University of Bombay and felt a little familiar. These Gothic buildings were really similar to Ma Ling's alma mater, Georgetown University. However, in terms of natural scenery and climate, Georgetown University was really better. Not here.
It was a little regrettable that he also saw a lot of female college students, but no matter whether they were wearing saris or other clothing, without exception, they were all tightly wrapped, which really let down the sultry weather.
This is also a contradictory aspect of India. In Mumbai, you can see couples kissing on the roadside, which is unimaginable in other cities in India.
However, in universities in Mumbai, there is an unwritten rule that girls cannot wear backless clothes and miniskirts.
The car stopped in front of the office building, which was also very historical and Gothic. As soon as he got off the car, a large group of people came out led by an old man with glasses and a square face. "This is the principal, Dr. Veruka," Sean introduced.
"Hello," the old man actually greeted Feng Yiping in Chinese, and it was quite standard.
This immediately won Feng Yiping's favor, "Hello, nice to meet you,"
"Hello," Principal Veruka held his hands with both hands and looked him up and down, "Haha, Mr. Feng, you may not know that your speech has brought great challenges to our security department. This should be the most popular speech in our school,"
At this time, Cyrus, who successfully entered the auditorium from the VIP channel, looked at the people who came in and opened his mouth in surprise. Not to mention Andia from the Mittal family, two young people from the Bella family came, and even the twins from the Ambani family who rarely appeared came?
