Chapter 2624 Determination
The capital, the first store of Tianjiaoju.
Jin Bao stood at the staircase leading to the second-floor private room, blocking the entire staircase. He looked like a man standing alone against ten thousand men.
However, the smile on his face still made him look like a soft and fat man, friendly but not majestic enough.
But people who know Jin Bao will know that the smile on his face now is very different from usual.
There is some nervousness in his smile now.
To be honest, there are not many people who can make Mr. Jin nervous now. After all, he can be very relaxed in front of Feng Yiping.
Not everyone can feel the difference in Jin Bao, but some old customers still feel the difference in the waiters. They are obviously more enthusiastic and energetic than usual. They look like torches with bright smiles...
All this is because of the two people in the private room upstairs. One of them is Feng Yiping, of course, and the other is Teacher Zhou.
It's not that everyone, from Jinbao to the waiter, became more nervous because of Teacher Zhou's visit. It can only be said that this was the first time that Teacher Zhou came here, and Feng Yiping was also a regular customer.
"This restaurant is good," Teacher Zhou praised, "I think this should be the most successful project founded by domestic college clubs,"
"I don't know, I really never asked about anything about the restaurant, it was all the credit of the classmates in the crowdfunding club and the management team," Feng Yiping said.
He really didn't ask about the restaurant - except that how the restaurant should be opened was based on his original design.
He poured a cup of tea for Teacher Zhou, "This tea is very ordinary,"
Teacher Zhou said without even drinking it, "The tea you drink is really ordinary, and it will become extraordinary in the future,"
This is true.
Many people imitate all aspects of foreign countries, and some of Feng Yiping's preferences can naturally influence some people.
"Besides, this tea should be extraordinary," Teacher Zhou said.
Not to mention that he came, Feng Yiping would never use "very ordinary" tea to entertain anyone he would meet.
"The tea grown at home is not a precious variety," Feng Yiping smiled, "I think, since I really can't appreciate the flavor of top-grade Longjing, I'd rather drink the taste I've been used to since childhood, and not compete with everyone for such scarce resources."
However, the tea grown at home is naturally also particular now.
His cousin Dongzheng introduced the particulars to him with the attitude of offering treasures, but he didn't remember much.
In short, this tea is grown very carefully. My cousin and his friends have put a lot of effort, and the experts have also put a lot of effort.
Teacher Zhou looked at Feng Yiping and smiled, "It's obviously you who can't drink Longjing, but you say it as if those who like to drink Longjing have to owe you a favor. You are really a genuine shrewd businessman,"
"However, it is really rare for your Tianjiaoju to achieve such results now. It seems that it is not easy to run such a small restaurant well."
That is, let alone the restaurant, think about how much work Feng Yiping did to run the noodle shop well?
When the lamb chops came up, their topic had turned to work.
"Is the matter in the United States over?" Teacher Zhou asked.
"Although it's not over yet, because everyone is cooperating, it seems that there won't be any big troubles."
If those guys on Wall Street heard what Feng Yiping said, they would probably jump up and curse. Cooperation? When have we ever thought of cooperating with you?
Who among us is not forced to do so?
"Looking at you like this, will you focus on China next?"
"I have such an idea," Feng Yiping nodded.
"Isn't everything going very smoothly in China? Why do you look so worried?" Teacher Zhou looked at Feng Yiping, who was eating mutton with his head down, "If it's about Facebook, Yiping, you have to understand..."
"I completely understand," Feng Yiping said.
Teacher Zhou mentioned the Facebook matter at this time because he knew about the news that they had contacted with the three microblogs and Twitter.
"I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about..." Feng Yiping briefly described to Teacher Zhou what he had been worried about.
This year is indeed a very important year for our country, but if we consider it from the perspective of national development, the most important thing this year is really not the Olympics.
The decisions made this year will have the most significant and far-reaching impact on our economic life.
Mr. Zhou looked at Feng Yiping, "I really don't need to praise you for this, everyone knows that you have always had a good vision,"
"You are right, now is indeed the time to think about similar plans,"
But Feng Yiping felt that Mr. Zhou's words might be a bit empty.
The higher-ups should have been thinking about this issue a long time ago, otherwise, if they really waited until the peak of the US subprime mortgage crisis to study and formulate plans, by the time the plans were implemented, the impact of subprime mortgages on the economy might no longer exist.
"And your concerns are also insightful," - he said this, but still did not tell Feng Yiping whether there was a similar plan and the essence of the plan.
Such a major plan, when it has not yet been publicly solicited for public opinions, naturally needs to be kept confidential.
"But if the situation you mentioned really happens, what you have to do," Teacher Zhou pondered for a moment, "it will definitely be very difficult,"
Feng Yiping wiped his hands and said calmly, "I had expected this."
"But I decided to do it anyway,"
"Yiping, it's not that I don't trust you, but I still have to ask you, will the situation you described really happen in the future?" Teacher Zhou asked seriously.
"If we don't change, then it will definitely be more serious than I predicted," Feng Yiping said seriously, "I am very sure of this,"
Of course he was very sure of that, because he had personally experienced it, and he had personally experienced the pain and pressure involved.
"So I would very much like to have an opportunity to talk,"
This problem would not be solved by writing an article like last time. What he wanted to do this time would be effective only through an interview.
Because his article last time clearly pointed out the areas in which we would face huge losses if we did not take corresponding measures.
But this time, he cannot give that kind of data, because the issues he wants to talk about this time can be said to affect all aspects of our national economy.
"I think this shouldn't be a problem," Teacher Zhou said with a smile, "Yiping, you have greatly underestimated your popularity now,"
"It's just..." he mused.
"I understand," Feng Yiping said.
Even people like Mr. Zhou who are at the helm of the central bank still don’t quite believe the scene he described, let alone convince others.
"I don't expect that my opinions will be adopted this time. In fact, I have already been prepared for that,"
"This time, I will use all the power I can mobilize to promote my views, so when the time comes, I may not seem too obedient,"
"I have no intention of becoming an opinion leader, but I will do everything in my power to stop plans that would lead to that,"
"I've been rewarded so much over the years and I hope to do more that will benefit the most people,"
"Since you have made up your mind, I won't stop you," Teacher Zhou said. "I believe there must be a very good reason for your persistence."
"It's just Yiping, you still have to believe in the ambition of your superiors, and you also have to have a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of your own image,"
"Do you think, after all this, you are still just a simple businessman?"
"You also know that everyone has a very good impression of you,"
The "everyone" that Teacher Zhou refers to is naturally not the everyone that most of us call everyone.
"When we look at people, we always observe not only their words but also their actions, and you have done an impeccable job in this regard," Teacher Zhou said.
These words made Feng Yiping feel a lot more at ease. In other words, it doesn't matter if I actually speak a little too much sometimes?
"No way, you're exaggerating,"
Teacher Zhou raised his tea cup and said, "I will convey your opinions. I think it is also necessary to set up a project team to prove some of your conclusions."
If the conclusion reached by the team he formed was consistent with Feng Yiping's, then he would naturally side with Feng Yiping.
"But Yiping, you should also try your best to perfect your reasons,"
"I understand, thank you, Teacher Zhou, please!"
