Chapter 572 Encounter

As a reborn person, and the national voting day in the U.S. general election is coming, Feng Yiping doesn’t really want to go to Washington by plane, and rejects Jacob’s proposal to go by car. Of course, the bus is not a good choice. In the end, Stanford’s top student, give A student at Tsinghua University booked a first-class train ticket.

For 400 kilometers, the train takes more than three hours. Compared with domestic trains, the speed has been increased several times in recent years. These private railway companies in the United States are really conservative.

Penn Station, gives people a rather bad impression.

It is said that the original station building was beautiful, but in the 1950s, the financial situation of the Pennsylvania Railway deteriorated, the main building was demolished, and all its platforms were underground. The latest renovation was also several years ago, in In this sunless underground space, the passage walls and the ground are full of historical imprints and stains, the flow of people is heavy, and the air quality is quite average. Compared with the prosperity and splendor on the ground, it is truly a place in the sky. , one underground.

Jacob has been with Feng Yiping for the past few days, and the service has become more and more thoughtful. Seeing that the little boss’s face is not very good, he said something and ran towards the store. It took him a while to go, and when he came back, he was far away Just shouting, "Feng,"

Feng Yiping saw that he didn't buy much food, and he was holding a thick stack of newspapers, "Why did you buy so much?"

"Look," Jacob flipped through the pages excitedly, "you have been covered, Feng, you are famous now!"

Although Feng Yiping saw the news about himself in the "New York Times" when he was having breakfast, and that newspaper was still in his bag at this time, he was still a little surprised after seeing so many now. , is there really such a big response?

In fact, it is mainly because of age. If he had done such a thing when he was in his forties or fifties, there would not be so many reports, but a young man in his early twenties received so many courtesy from capitalists, it would be a gimmick .

Looking at so many newspapers, Feng Yiping felt that the air in the ground was fresher in an instant, "Thank you Jacob, my parents must like these,"

"Then I'll look for other newspapers,"

So when the train departed, Feng Yiping had 11 newspapers in his hands, which were carefully bundled up by Jacob, who had been a newspaper boy when he was a child.

Feng Yiping patted these, of course he wouldn't be so narcissistic to take them out to read, but for parents, bringing them these newspapers is probably more happy than bringing them back the most expensive gift.

After ten o'clock, I arrived in Washington on time, Washington Union Station, which is really much better than Penn Station at the time of departure.

Except for the Capital West Railway Station, the new domestic railway stations are all very modern and technological, but the United States is different. Many railway stations here are built like Roman-style palaces, such as New York Central Railway Station. Another example is the one in front of you.

After leaving the train station, you will face Capitol Hill. It’s not a mountain at all. It’s just a hill, only more than 20 meters high. Feng Yiping has seen the Capitol on it many times in movies, and generally speaking, the ending Not very good, everything was destroyed.

As soon as he took a few photos, the pick-up person came. It may be because of the small sensation Feng Yiping caused in New York. Not only did the McDonough School of Business come to have an associate dean, but Georgetown University also sent him. An assistant to the provost.

These two did not despise Feng Yiping in the slightest because of his age. The vice dean of the business school even invited, "Feng, do you have the intention to come to the United States for further study? If you have such a plan, our school will be very happy." It is a pleasure to invite you,"

"Thank you very much, but I don't have any plans yet," Feng Yiping declined his kindness.

Of course he has this plan, but, although the McDonough School of Business is not bad, compared with the other schools, its comprehensive strength is still a bit behind.

Moreover, starting from the second half of next year, there are too many troubles here in Washington, and it is not a very suitable place to live.

Unlike our capital, Washington, DC, was originally designed as the capital. All the way to the hotel, there are almost all kinds of government agencies on the roadside. Most of these buildings are made of marble, and the appearance is generally square. Many The colonnaded facade is thick and solemn as a whole.

Georgetown University, founded in the same year as the United States, is the oldest Jesuit Catholic university in the United States.

This university is within easy reach of the U.S. Federal Government Office, and what is even more proud is that the current U.S. President Clinton and Secretary of State Albright both graduated from here.

Feng Yiping's speech was arranged to be held at the business school. However, today's audience, which is mainly students, is not as good as yesterday's bosses.

It's very simple, the blue ocean strategy is far away from most students. In addition, Feng Yiping, as a student at a university ranked at the bottom of the world, these days, going to their site to make headlines will inevitably make people These energetic guys have some opinions.

Feng Yiping was very interested and did not talk about the blue ocean strategy. His speech was mainly in two aspects. One was to review the world economic situation this year, and he did not forget to emphasize the precise judgment of some general directions in his own "Frontier" magazine. Some judgments on the political and economic situation of the world next year.

In the end, he complimented their country's election system by the way, even if he was slandering him in his heart at this time, there would be a good show in a few days.

After the counting of the votes in this year's U.S. election, Gore and Bush Jr.'s all kinds of tearing up for the presidency will be the talk of people all over the world for a long time.

Students, there is generally a lack of interest in Feng Yiping's speech, even if the things he predicted will definitely happen next year, but when the host announces the start of questioning, the following is full of excitement, one by one scrambling for the first place Hands ready to ask questions.

Feng Yiping immediately understood that these deliveries were probably not holding back any good farts, and they probably wanted to show him off!

Facing the enthusiastic crowd in the audience, the host is quite reliable. At the beginning, some students who are more cooperative, for example, the first one, a girl, asked, "It's your first time to come to the United States, may I ask?" How do you feel?"

This question is very appropriate, and Feng Yiping opened his mouth to ask, "I feel a lot, and the deepest feeling is that, like my motherland, the United States is a very great country,"

The third question was not so friendly. A guy in a baseball uniform asked, "Why is your book published in our country first?"

This product is not a good product! But with such a problem, why is it so rare to be an expert Feng at this time? It can even be said that it just happened to help him.

"First of all, I am very honored that Harvard Business School Press can take a fancy to my work and do my work again and again. I hope this book will be published by them.

Secondly, at the beginning, I didn't think about publishing this book. Some students may know that my book was serialized in my "Frontier" magazine at the beginning. As a high-end magazine, When it was founded, the situation was relatively difficult. I hope to use my book to attract the attention of some people and companies.

When the magazine was on the right track, many readers were very interested in the blue ocean strategy, and the publishing house was too generous, all combined, it led to the publication of this book. "

The next question asked was even more pointed, "What do you think of the electoral systems in our two countries?"

I'm just a student and entrepreneur okay!

He took a look, and did not let the reporters in. He said cautiously, "Practice has proved that the people of our two countries have chosen the path that is most suitable for their own country."

Fortunately, there was only 30 minutes for free questioning. At the end, Feng Yiping secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The two-year-old boy was the most difficult to deal with.

"I want to hang out on campus," he said to Jacob.

"Okay," Feng Yiping's request, Jacob had no objection, he didn't go to the car to wait, and hung behind Feng Yiping after a certain distance.

Seeing so many Catholic-style buildings in this small campus, Feng Yiping was really impressed. This school was established in 1789. At that time, it was still in the reign of Qianlong. At that time, domestic scholars were still concentrating on research. Stereotyped essays, with a view to high school, the gap is really not that big.

There was a row of benches by the side of the road, and he was about to rest his feet when he suddenly saw a girl with long brown hair and a graceful figure rummaging through something beside the trash can in front of him. He walked over and asked, "Need help?"

The girl turned her head when she heard the sound, Feng Yiping blinked, and was stunned on the spot, who was she?
