At noon the next day, Wang Yan set off alone to have dinner at Liu Fang's house.
Liu's mother cooked for herself, and Old Liu also went home early and took Wang Yan to drink a few small drinks.
No business was being discussed at the dinner table. Mother Liu kept talking like a little spy. She found that Wang Yan was very protective, but she still smiled and didn't take it seriously.
"Then you should take good care of yourself. The feelings of you young people come and go quickly. Anyway, you should protect yourselves and don't get hurt.
You are a good boy who has no worries about finding a girlfriend, unlike our Liu Fang, but you are still too young to get married, so you may not be able to find a suitable marriage partner by then. Auntie will help you find it in advance, and I promise you will not be wronged. about you… "
Wang Yan felt dumbfounded.
You are really far ahead in planning this, so be prepared for a rainy day...
Liu Fang, on the other hand, became impatient after being talked about, so he pushed back angrily and shamelessly.
"What kind of mentality do you have
Wang Yan probably won't get married until he's thirty, so he'll marry a girl in his mid-twenties. How do you figure it out now
Go to those uncles and aunts' houses to play with the little girls who are twelve or three years old, and prepare them for Wang Yan in advance? !
Can you do something reliable? "
Mother Liu got angry, dropped her chopsticks and stared.
"What's wrong with Twelve Three? As the saying goes, you can see things from a young age. Isn't it just right to observe now
Besides, I have no intention of doing anything. On the day when I really need to be used, I will introduce a good girl to Xiao Wang. Whether it succeeds or not is a matter between us. What does it have to do with you
Liu Fang, you don’t have to contradict me. I’m telling you, as soon as your legs are healed, go on a blind date with me!
If you can't get married within two years, I won't give you any more money! "
Liu Fang scratched his head: "Who are you trying to scare?! If you two are capable, give me a younger brother!"
puff!
Brother Gou drank half the wine in one gulp and almost spit it out.
Brother Fang, you are the one who is more ruthless... Your parents are almost 50, right? !
Father Liu ignored the quarrel between his mother and his wife. He slowly raised his glass and motioned to Wang Yan.
"Come, drink...
Liu Fang has made us both useless. Your aunt and I have nothing else to think about now. We just hope that he will marry a virtuous wife and have two children for us.
He's not reliable at work, so if you put in the effort, you might end up pulling this stupid thing out from under the wheel of the car in vain, right
You don't need to take care of other things, but when you are looking for a partner, you must help check it and don't let him deceive others.
If you find a good girl who doesn't dislike him, tell your uncle directly, "You think it's okay, I'll let them get the certificate directly, and you will be the witness..."
puff!
Brother Gou didn't even take his second sip of wine to calm down, causing the witness to choke on his words.
Lao Liu, what kind of brain circuit do you have
How dare you lie!
Liu Fang and his mother were having a lively conversation. When they heard this sentence, their expressions suddenly softened.
He approached Wang Yan with a shy face and smiled flatteringly.
"Brother Dog, dear brother, please help me hold up the scene in the afternoon!
My little brother’s lifelong happiness depends entirely on you!
If I can catch up with her, I will get a marriage certificate immediately and work hard from now on!
How about I swear a poisonous oath to you? ! "
"No, no, no!"
Liu Fang's last words almost scared Brother Dog to the point of peeing.
How dare I ask you to swear poison? !
You opened your mouth, directly sacrificed your parents to heaven, and stuffed them into the poisonous oath... Do I want to be a human being
You are so angry that I can only die to apologize...
Brother Dog was so frightened that his vest was covered with sweat. Mother Liu was not very happy when she heard that Liu Fang was getting married.
"snort!"
She sneered with a steady expression and turned to warn Wang Yan.
"Xiao Wang, you have to help Auntie keep an eye on Liu Fang. None of the girls he found are decent.
Last time I bumped into someone outside, oh, he was wearing all kinds of fancy tattoos, he looked like a twice-burned rice dumpling.
There is a big catfish tattoo on the back, all the way to the base of Yiba. I asked what this is
Liu Fang told me that it was a carp jumping over the dragon's gate!
Ouch, my brain hurts! Feeling: The gantry in your home is built on a dung door? ! "
puff!
Brother Dog didn't even dare to drink anymore. He was squirted again while he was eating.
Auntie, you are so talented, are you just like this, or have you been tortured to pieces by Liu Fang? !
It's so dangerous to have a meal at your house...
Wang Yan listened to the cross talk while cooking, and finally managed to get through the lunch without incident.
As for those "supervising", "taking care of", and "helping find a partner"...
Just listen.
The old couple might be really worried, but Wang Yan couldn't let that happen.
They are all of the same age, and when they find a problem, they can at most give advice, so who can live for whom
Between friends, avoid preaching too much.
Old Liu wished he could tie Liu Fang to Wang Yan, but Wang Yan himself didn't catch a cold.
The new generation has never been on the same page as the older generation on this issue.
After dinner, Lao Liu took Wang Yan to the study to drink tea.
At this point, we can finally talk about business.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lao Liu directly mentioned the debate.
"The debate between Professor Zhang and Professor Lin has been decided, and the date is still being discussed, but the result of the face-to-face confrontation will not change, and it will be by the end of next month at the latest.
Do you really want to get involved? "
Wang Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, but instead of rushing to refute his "mixing", he smiled.
"No one has informed me yet. Do you know the specific situation?"
Smart people never have to speak too clearly. As soon as Lao Liu heard the words, he knew that Wang Yan had no intention of giving up.
Old Liu sighed in his heart, and an extremely complicated emotion arose spontaneously.
"I have a general understanding... I am also asking people for information. We are just chatting. You can just listen."
"Thank you, Uncle Liu."
Wang Yan bowed slightly to show respect and gratitude.
In fact, given Lao Liu's position, no matter how powerful he is within China Mobile, his influence will not be able to spread beyond the ordinary, let alone upward.
Now I am specifically asking about these things, mainly because I care about Wang Yan.
This feeling is worthy of acceptance.
At the same time, Wang Yan would not underestimate the value of Lao Liu's information. Whatever the old fox dared to say was guaranteed to be true.
"I'll tell you from the beginning."
Old Liu threw a cigarette to Wang Yan, then leaned back in his chair, and started smoking on his own without letting Wang Yan help him light it.
While sucking, he was thinking about his words.
"In recent years, there has been quite a commotion in academic circles. You just finish singing and I will appear on stage.
I don’t know the details of why Zhang Weiying came forward in the end, but Zhang Weiying publicly criticized the government’s industrial policy at the Yabuli Summer Forum in August last year, which was the direct trigger for this debate.
Afterwards, Lin Yifu responded from a distance. The two people, as well as the power behind them, attacked each other secretly, which lasted for a long time.
In fact, if you look carefully, the two of them had been fighting each other in this regard a few years ago.
It's different!
Then people in the academic circle started to make noises, saying that you two should argue in person.
Sounds ridiculous
Does it suddenly feel less upscale
In fact, from the beginning, the dispute between the two waves of people was just because of interests, and it was no different from a fight between street gangsters.
The reason why the commotion is getting bigger is because it coincides with the country's economic transformation.
This time the two of them were really put on the back foot, not just because of the booing from inside and outside the circle, but also a bit like being kidnapped by the current situation.
At the lower level, various schools and major research institutes are making noises.
At the middle level, local thinking is not unified, and each has its own small calculations in the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
At the top, the dispute between conservatives and radicals has never stopped, but the points of contention are different at each stage and on each issue.
The education sector must consider issues such as the continuity of teaching materials, talent training, and the tilt of school resources.
Political research should consider issues such as policy tone, theoretical unity, and guidance.
The economic department is even more troublesome. Business, development and reform, state-owned assets, economic center groups, etc., etc., etc., while moving forward at a loss according to inertia, are all waiting for a guiding ideology.
Do you understand what guiding ideology is? "
Wang Yan was also surprised that Old Liu had such an in-depth conversation as soon as he came up.
He thought for a moment, nodded solemnly, and then shook his head again.
"I can roughly understand it, but I can't believe it... I'm afraid you won't be able to summarize what you're talking about in two or three years, right?"
"Yes!"
Old Liu laughed and gave a thumbs up: "Just what you think, smart!"
After taking a puff of cigarette and drinking tea, he started to expand the topic like gossip.
"Xiao Wang, you said last time that you judged the past two years to be an extremely critical period of transformation in the country. This is right and good.
But you are not within the system, so you cannot see the most critical point -
What is the purpose of transformation
What we embody externally is economic transformation, structural adjustment, and quality upgrading.
Therefore, academic circles have to engage in debates on industrial policy.
But what is the inner nature
Developing the economy for the sake of developing the economy
Think about it, is this right
The debate between Zhang Weiying and Lin Yifu was on a technical level. I guess it would be difficult for them to decide the winner.
They are all top economists, and they have already mastered their skills. It is not a good thing for you to get involved. Your level is definitely incomparable with others.
But since you have made up your mind to participate, you might as well start from another angle—get higher.
You may not win this way, but you can definitely gain the appreciation of some leaders.
I don’t want to teach you to be flattering. I have read your “Focus Interview” and the few points you discussed are very good, very sharp, and very true.
It can be seen that this is what you think, and your mind is already very close to the answer.
Do you still remember it yourself? "
With Wang Yan's IQ, how could he not remember
He recalled it carefully and immediately gained a lot.
In "Focus Interview", Wang Yan talked about tax regulation, the red line of higher education, the inability of neoclassical education to save China, and even a little bit of room for improvement.
At that time, Wang Yan couldn't make an accurate summary based on his knowledge base, so the whole thing seemed a bit unreasonable.
-To put it harshly, it means being scattered.
Now that Wang Yan had cheated and improved himself to the level of a doctoral student, many clues suddenly became clear.
Wang Yan's original expression actually had only one core idea -
Reduce the gap between rich and poor.
All the rest are means, only this is the goal.
Logically speaking, this kind of thought should not come from the mouth of a capitalist, but Wang Yan has never regarded himself as a capitalist.
I'm just an ordinary guy.
I did not betray my class.
So Wang Yan never cared about real estate, finance, or capital expansion. Who doesn't know how to make money by doing those things
I don't care about it.
Born as a diaosi and getting something for nothing without any struggle, Wang Yan was born to be incompatible with exploiters.
The rapid acquisition of knowledge and the rapid expansion of his horizons have made Wang Yan far higher than the negative energy loser in terms of thinking.
Therefore, when Wang Yan could not clearly see which direction the wind was blowing, he sincerely expressed his hope to "reduce the gap between the rich and the poor."
And this innocent heart was the root of his eventual entry into the game.
Lao Liu's reminder to him was not just Lao Liu's own intention.
Although Old Liu looked down on Wang Yan's professionalism, which made Brother Gou a little unhappy, his reminder was definitely a deafening sound.
"I see."
After repeated thinking, Wang Yan finally understood the role that "the superiors" wanted him to play.
This "above" is just a virtual reference.
The general meaning is that some people have some expectations for Wang Yan and feel that this child is valuable for observation.
If you perform well and can correctly exert your influence among the new generation, you may gain a lot of favor.
Lao Liu was no longer hinting, he was basically saying it.
However, Wang Yan still smiled calmly and soberly.
"From an academic point of view, due to the different basic paradigms of economics, Zhang Lin's debate cannot be directly divided into winners and losers. Whether I participate or not, and whose side I take, has little impact.
But from the perspective of organizing thoughts, my identity can represent the expectations of some people.
So, if I can have a complete ideological system and my intentions are high enough, then I can make a voice...
It seems that the organizer still has doubts about whether to invite me? "
"right."
Old Liu nodded leisurely.
“The organizer is the Yanda National Academy of Development, and above that are two national groups. You don’t need to know their names.
Now it's a three-party melee. One side thinks it's a joke to invite you, and the other side thinks it's not necessary to go online and it's worth trying.
The last party is the centrist, so anything will do.
So although the debate has been set, no one has informed you.
I tell you this in advance because I want to confirm with you: Do you really want to participate? "
Wang Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"You mean, I can go if I want to?"
"Of course, you don't think that your friends are in vain, do you? The current situation is that as soon as the centrist opens his mouth, the matter will be settled immediately."
"Then I'll go." Wang Yan confirmed decisively.
What am I afraid of
In terms of professional knowledge, I have been cramming it for a month and delved deeply into all the papers of the two professors.
In terms of reputation, I alone can double and triple the two of them.
In terms of results, if I win or lose, I win.
In terms of benefits, if a promotional film promotes a company's promotion and sales, if done well, it can also establish the identity of the new generation of opinion leaders...
Why don't you go? !
Old Liu shook his head and sighed, but he didn't stop him.
"Okay, since you are willing to wade into troubled waters, I can only support you as an uncle... Fortunately, the higher-ups don't think it's appropriate to get too intense and are trying to make peace..."
Wang Yan was stunned for a moment.
"What's going on with He Xini?"
Old Liu laughed: "You are still too young! How outrageous are two experts getting into a tense situation in public
So it's not called a debate, it's called a thinking session.
Both of them will also pay attention to propriety and will not bring something to the table and say... "
Wang Yan suddenly realized something and raised his head sharply: "The higher ups agree to live broadcast?!"
"Forehead… "
Old Liu was more shocked than Wang Yan, and was stunned for a moment.
How on earth was this child raised? !
Applying one example to another, you can tell autumn when you see a leaf. What a monster!
Can at least stand up to 25 Liu Fang...
"Yes, it will be broadcast live on the online platform at that time. It will probably be an unprecedented event."
Wang Yan became completely excited when he mentioned this.
Originally, I was worried that I didn't have enough influence. Wouldn't someone give me a pillow when I fall asleep
As expected, everything went smoothly!
Even when he didn't have the aura of the European Emperor, Wang Yan was confident that he could do something big.
Now that he is illuminated by Ou Huang's light, his confidence is even stronger.
Great live broadcast!
I started my career in live broadcasting. Does Wang Shen know
Everyone is seated, my show is about to begin!
