Chapter 813 We Are All Adults
After staying in Yanjing for two days, he flew back to Feicheng after entertaining guests, where he met and discussed with Wang Jianguo for more than two hours, and then visited Chen Fangjun's home in the evening.
At the wedding, Chen Weimin was unable to attend because of work, so Chen Fangjun went on behalf of his family. So since I can't get over from Feicheng to visit, it doesn't make sense.
Seeing Zhou Ya again gave Chen Fangjun a feeling that things were different and people were different. Unknowingly, it seemed that time had not passed and everyone was now a man with a family.
However, Chen Fangjun has obviously let go of the knot he had at the time, or in other words, there was no knot at all. He was just a boy who felt a little depressed when he was rejected by a girl. The greedy nature of men makes it a little awkward to see each other again.
Now that they are both married and adults, things like this have long since passed. Chen Fangjun’s wife Li Han warmly entertained the two of them.
This year Li Han opened two mobile phone stores, not in Feicheng. It was opened in partnership with others in Zhucheng, a more economically developed city. Having caught up with the good times and made her first pot of gold, she is obviously more financially savvy than her husband Chen Fangjun.
Instead of living a small life with a few profitable mobile phone stores with the idea of becoming rich, he chose to expand outward. In addition to the mobile phone store, she also wants to do a clothing business, but the opening of the new store does not have free time for the time being.
Li Han and Zhou Ya were cooking in the kitchen. Zhou Ya was pregnant now, so it was rare for the two career-minded women to talk about business instead of talking about parenting. As someone who has been through this before, Li Han taught Zhou Ya a lot of experiences during her first pregnancy.
"I heard that you are planning to invest in Anhui Province?" Chen Fangjun took out the cigarette case, but thinking that there was a pregnant woman at home, he took out the cigarette and put it back.
"We are still talking. There are some differences in opinions. I guess he may talk about the end of the year. What? Are you planning to become professional?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.
Chen Fangjun had changed jobs before, but later returned to the army after he could not adapt to the outside working environment. In the face of the reduction of military establishment in recent years, many companies have withdrawn their designations, and many serving officers have transferred to other places in large numbers.
"I haven't decided yet, but if I have the choice, I would definitely like to stay in the army for the rest of my life - it's simple." Chen Fangjun said.
After staying with some big-headed soldiers for a long time, he was not used to the intrigues after changing jobs. In fact, there are good opportunities to change careers this time. In order to provide some compensation to these serving officers, many positions are of high quality.
Both Li Han and his parents hope that Chen Fangjun will take the opportunity to work full-time. If you put it into operation, you can stay in Anhui Province, or even stay in Feicheng and join the Armed Forces Ministry.
But according to Chen Weimin's intention, he obviously wanted to be a soldier for life, so transferring posts in this way became a problem. It's almost like local officials need to be rotated every three to five years.
It is impossible for an officer in the army to keep you in the same company for a lifetime. Necessary job rotation is also necessary to prevent certain corruption. He has served in the Feicheng garrison for many years. If he did not transfer, he would probably be promoted by half a rank and transferred to the new company as the captain.
In this way, my wife Li Han is a problem. Now I have finally opened a business in Feicheng. For the business, my daughter has been sent to Yanjing to be taken care of by her parents. It is obviously impossible for her to be transferred with Chen Fangjun. In this way, the two people will definitely separate.
Yang Dongxu obviously wouldn't talk too much about such matters related to the future. After all, even a big boss like Chen Weimin didn't help his son make decisions, so it was inappropriate for him to say more.
"I really wanted to fight, but I didn't catch the right time." Chen Fangjun sighed.
"Haha, what you say is a bit backwards in thinking. The revolutionary martyrs gave us a peaceful life with their flesh and blood, but you always think about fighting." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"How can a soldier not want to fight?" Chen Fangjun retorted.
"I've been thinking about war all day. If it really happens, will you still have meat to eat and drink? Then drink the northwest wind." Li Han walked out of the kitchen with the dishes and snorted when he heard his husband's words. .
She was dissatisfied with Chen Fangjun's insistence on staying in the army. After all, she had such good resources as her father-in-law at home. If she didn't change her job and pursue an official career, it would be wrong to insist on becoming a big-headed soldier.
But now that the children are older, Li Han has started to look away a little. In addition, he now has his own career, and the relationship between the couple is no longer as stiff as before. After all, the two are busy and have less time to see each other, so the friction is natural. It's lowered.
Chen Fangjun smiled and said nothing. Talking about military life with a woman was different from playing the piano to a cow.
After the food was served, four people sat down to eat. Li Han and Zhou Ya drank juice, and Yang Dongxu and Chen Fangjun drank two glasses.
"Xu Zi, do you think the liquor business can still be done?" Li Han couldn't help but ask.
Although my business and married life have been greatly improved, my parents' side has encountered trouble. The Li family's main business in Shanxi is the liquor business. It can be said that the business has been getting worse and worse in recent years. Although it has not reached the point of bankruptcy, survival is already very difficult.
"It can definitely be done, but it has been a bit difficult in the past two years. After all, the state's policy on liquor is strictly controlled. After this period of time, when the national grain reserves are no longer so tight, the liquor industry can pick up.
But at that time, because the market picked up, a lot of capital must have followed suit. By then, the number of large and small wineries that have closed down will have doubled and the competition will be even more intense. Yang Dongxu said.
"That's it." Li Han was a little worried.
"It's a good idea to change careers now. After all, the country attaches great importance to economic development. If you don't do the liquor business, you can change to other businesses and take advantage of the policies to get a lot of preferential treatment." Zhou Ya said.
"Changing careers is indeed a good idea, but you may not know about Shanxi. Either you do coal mining or heavy industry. Other businesses are not so easy to do." After leaving the liquor industry that the Li family has run for many years, suddenly changing careers is not only a problem before investment, but also requires reorganizing personal connections. Her father obviously has not made a final decision yet.
"Change to another place to do business. Although it is more convenient to do business in the local area, it is also a kind of constraint. If your family does not want to be a coal boss, you can take advantage of it to invest in the south now.
Set up a small electronics factory, or try other industries. Anyway, there is no way to increase investment in the liquor industry now. It is better to take out the money to do business than to keep it in the bank." Yang Dongxu suggested.
Li Han nodded unconsciously. There are indeed too many restrictions to be trapped in Shanxi. Especially when grandpa is tough and doesn't allow father to use his reputation to get into minerals, it seems good to go out of the hometown and see the outside world.
For example, the mobile phone business that I am doing now can also be done by my family. Anyway, the national market is so big that she hasn't even finished the market in Anhui Province. My mother's family can open mobile phone stores in other places.
"How much assets do you think Xuzi and Zhou Ya have now?" After dinner, Li Han sat for a while and sent Yang Dongxu and Zhou Ya out. After returning, he couldn't help asking.
"I don't know, but when I was celebrating the New Year in Yanjing at the end of the year, I heard my father say it. He said that if he wanted to, his name would definitely be on the Forbes list." Chen Fangjun said after a pause.
"Maybe there is, maybe he can enter the top three." Li Han nodded in agreement.
"Top three? Impossible?" Chen Fangjun was a little surprised.
He put most of his energy on the army, and rarely asked about things in the outside world, so naturally he wouldn't ask too much. Since the first time he met Yang Dongxu, he knew from his father that Yang Dongxu, who was younger than him, was very rich.
But no matter how rich he is, how old is Yang Dongxu this year? 25 or 26? At this age, he has just graduated from college for a few years, right? His wealth has reached the top three in the country, which is hundreds of billions.
"Don't disbelieve it, do you know Dongxu Technology? It was only after I started doing business that I realized that Dongxu Technology is not only an OEM for Nokia and some mobile phone brands, but also operates other industries.
You know Ye Rongrong, right? She is the wife of Wu Aibing, the first person Xuzi started doing business with. Now she is a member of the National People's Congress, a member of the CPPCC, and the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce.
It is said that her personal assets have reached 500 million yuan, and she is a recognized strong woman in the industry in the south. A worker has 500 million yuan in assets. Dongxu Technology is Xuzi's, and he is the major shareholder. How much money do you think he has? Besides, he has more than one company, Dongxu Technology.
One of the top ten taxpayers in our province last year is his pharmaceutical company. It is said that in just a few years, someone has valued it at 1 billion yuan." Li Han said.
"Maybe you can really make it to the top three. But your family is doing business, you can help them, don't drag him into it." Chen Fangjun reminded him.
Although he knew that Yang Dongxu would not refuse if Li Han asked, his wife's business was already taken care of by others, and Yang Dongxu seemed to have been avoiding suspicion over the years and never asked the Chen family for anything. If Li Han's family was doing business and still asked Yang Dongxu for help, it would be a bit too much.
"I understand, but can you really not be professional? Even if you are professional to the police system, it is better than you doing closed training and acting in the barracks for ten days or half a month without seeing anyone, right?" Li Han nodded, and then talked about her husband's demobilization.
"I'll think about it, and we'll talk about it later." Chen Fangjun didn't want to talk more.
Li Han sighed. When her husband demobilized and then served in the military, she knew Chen Fangjun's attitude. But now it's different from the past. Everyone goes into business, and her husband has such good resources in his career. Why must he fight with a soldier?
"How was the talk with Uncle Wang today?" Yang Dongxu had drunk so Zhou Ya was driving.
"It's just so-so. You've seen the economy of Anhui Province, especially the provincial capital. They are under a lot of pressure, so many people want to launch a satellite and achieve success overnight, but the current domestic environment is different from that of previous years.
You can't become famous overnight just by launching a satellite, not to mention how many satellite-launching industries are really doing well now? If the foundation is not solid, what else can you do in vain." Yang Dongxu sighed.
Even if he found an easy entry point, the resistance he encountered was beyond his imagination. After all, a lot of money is invested in education, not to mention that an industrial chain needs to be built, and the investment is even greater.
