"Regarding the matter of pharmaceutical agents, I will greet you and help you make some contacts with Pfizer and other companies. But this time it is Suzhou again, right?"
"Yeah."
"There's no point in acting coquettishly or pretending to be stupid," Simon said in the office, flipping through an investment plan for a Chinese pharmaceutical company in his hand: "People are all biased, and there's nothing wrong with that. However, there is an old saying in China, which is: rice rises and rice rises, and rice rises and rice falls. , sometimes, if you give too much, it may not be a good thing. From another perspective, if you raise a hound, if you feed it too much, it will be too lazy to hunt. "
Chen Qing blinked her eyes, her expression still a bit charming: "Boss, I think your metaphor, um, is not very vivid, right?"
"Do you understand the truth?"
"understood."
"Then enlarge the pattern. We must do this in the future. Speaking of this investment in the medical field, you should draft a brand new plan as soon as possible. Besides Suzhou, there will be at least one Beijing and one Hangzhou. Do you understand?"
"Um."
"In addition..." Simon thought for a while and said: "China has only been open for twenty years. Industrial development is easy and then difficult. Start with OEM and agency, do the most things with the least resources, and then carry out industrial upgrading. This is natural, but just as people are inert, the same is true at the national level, and Latin America is a typical example of failed industrial upgrading."
Chen Qing was confused: "Boss, does this have anything to do with us?"
"Take a warning," Simon said: "We can't control other things, but since we know this and we have enough resources, we don't have to follow the step-by-step approach like China. Of course, we can do more, just like this investment in the medical field. In addition to being an agent, you also need to organize research and development on your own and make some products independently.”
"Boss, I think this matter can be left in Europe and the United States?"
“What is the cost in Europe and the United States, and what is the cost in Asia?”
Chen Qing shrank her neck: "I know."
Simon ignored the little pretense of Nizi opposite him and continued: "We can start with traditional Chinese medicine preparations. In order to ensure its own interests, it is inevitable for the Western medicine system to attack traditional Chinese medicine. However, China's traditional Chinese medicine has developed for thousands of years, and in many aspects it is actually It is quite mature and effective, and there are many ready-made TCM prescriptions. It just so happens that China has the right time and place.”
Chen Qing nodded and said: "Boss, the problem is that the production is probably only limited to China. Can it be sold to Europe and the United States?"
"Can't Yunnan Baiyao be sold to Europe and the United States? As long as you can make good products, this side will naturally be responsible for the approval."
Chen Qing was confused: "The boss even knows about Yunnan Baiyao?"
Simon ignored it and continued to flip through the documents in his hand, saying: "The Asian financial crisis in the past year is a watershed, which means the rise of financial capital in the West, especially the United States. In the next twenty or thirty years, it can be foreseen that financial capital in the West will To a large extent, industrial capital is suppressed, can you tell me why?”
Chen Qing didn't mind her boss's sudden change of direction. After thinking about it for a moment, she said, "Short-term profiteering?"
"That's right," Simon said: "Compared to real industry capital, which often takes three to five years or even ten or twenty years to deploy, financial capital can obtain huge profits in a very short period of time through capital operations. Therefore, West The Los Angeles system will also gradually increase its deployment in the financial capital field."
Chen Qing roughly understood: "The problem is that financial capital is unrealistic, and industrial capital is the foundation of a country's economy."
"That's it," Simon said: "In the relatively free market environment in Europe and the United States, because financial capital can bring huge profits in a short period of time, and lacks strong state intervention, the transformation of the economic structure from industrial capital to financial capital will be impossible. Avoid, the result is that this may bring short-term prosperity, but if it takes a long time, you will fall into that group of people who have fallen into a desert island. One or two people maintain production, and the others carry out financial operations around the production results of those one or two people. , and everyone ends up starving to death together.”
"This analogy is a bit extreme. It's unlikely to happen in reality, right?"
"You have to know that this is a very magical world. Our imagination will never be as exciting as reality," Simon said. "For example, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, can you imagine that Ukraine, with an annual output of 50 million tons of grain, supplied the entire Soviet Union and exported to Europe? In the years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the grain output of Eastern Europe plummeted by nearly 80%, leaving only more than 10 million tons?"
Chen Qing shook her head. She didn't know, she just thought that her boss's mind started to jump again.
However, the core of the topic seems to have not changed.
Of course, Simon did not go astray and continued: "Now that we understand that excessive bias towards financial capital is a trap, we certainly cannot fall into it. Therefore, I will continue to maintain a focus on a series of core enterprises in the Westeros system for a long time to come. Strong control to prevent them from falling into the vicious circle of pursuing short-term profits under the control of financial capital. Similarly, I also want to ensure this for the industrial layout of the entire Westeros system, whether it is Europe, the United States, or Asia, and, if there is to be something Bias, we definitely prefer industrial capital and the real economy. We need to set our sights ten or twenty years from now, instead of eagerly extracting enough profits in one or two years and then abandoning it."
Chen Qing nodded and then took the initiative to say: "Boss, on the other hand, reversing the boss's idea just now can also be used as a weapon."
"Smart, you know how to draw inferences from one instance."
"I am very smart," Chen Qing thought for a moment and said, "We can use this weapon on Japan and South Korea, right?"
"Am I being obvious?"
"It's easy to understand. Our foundation is in the United States. At present, in the core industrial fields, semiconductors, new technologies, etc., the ones that can pose a threat to the United States are Japan and South Korea. Of course we must destroy them," Chen Qing said , and suddenly realized: "The United States has done this many times, including Japan's semiconductors, and the Plaza Accord later, including the Asian financial crisis that started last year. On the surface, Japan, the largest economy in Asia, has not been greatly affected. , In fact, Japan has suffered internal injuries, because we have attacked all the Southeast Asian countries that are the back garden of Japan’s economy, and this has had a huge impact on Japan, which is mainly an export-oriented economy.”
"clever."
"Now we are in South Korea. The boss has emphasized the semiconductor industry many times. South Korea's semiconductor industry is going against the trend of Japan. Although we have gained control, we still have to... well, take the initiative to break a few eggs to avoid Too many chicks hatched in this basket in Korea.”
"Okay, you already understand what you need to understand. I don't need to say anything more."
Simon looked at his watch. Unknowingly, it was past seven o'clock in the evening. The sky outside the window began to dim, and little lights appeared in the steel forest of Manhattan.
So I got off work.
Chen Qing had made arrangements, and the two of them took a helicopter to a seaside estate in Southampton, Long Island.
The Black Hawk helicopter landed on the manor lawn, and the sunset completely sank into the horizon.
When Simon got off the helicopter, he immediately saw Korean girls standing in two rows, one on the left and one on the right. The reason why he recognized him at a glance was that the appearance of the Koreans was very obvious. There were nearly twenty girls in two rows, all wearing uniforms of Wei family attendants. , not only are they similar in height, but they also have excellent figures, with a uniform beauty that Simon likes to see.
The gospel of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Seeing Simon and Chen Qing get off the helicopter and no one else moved, the two girls in front came to greet them.
After getting closer, Simon discovered that one of them was not a Korean girl.
We just met at CK’s show last night, Yu Xiaomin from China, and the other one, whom I met last time at a manor in San Lucas, Mexico, is Chen Qing’s personal assistant in South Korea. After thinking about it for a while, I remembered Name, Lin Guili.
After hearing the greetings from the two women, Simon nodded and walked forward while smiling and asking Yu Xiaomin in Chinese: "Have you changed your career to be my waitress?"
Yu Xiaomin followed the man carefully and explained with a smile: "Sister Chen said, Mr. Westeros, you like people around you to wear uniforms."
Simon nodded and just smiled.
Chen Qing, who was holding the man's arm on the other side, and her boss walked up to two rows of Korean attendants and said with a smile: "Boss, let's see which one you like. Pick it out and prepare it."
Simon admired the Korean girls on both sides who were quite pleasing to the eye in terms of figure and face. Hearing this, he said, "Didn't you say you had prepared gifts in advance?"
"Yes, after dinner, but only the boss likes it. Of course, all the girls here are allowed to be chosen by the boss."
Simon was not polite: "Actually, I quite like them."
"No problem," Chen Qing raised her free hand and lightly snapped her fingers, then said to Lin Guili who was following her: "Take them to prepare."
Lin Guili thought of what happened to the eight girls in the girl group in recent days. Of course she understood what Chen Qing meant by preparation, and couldn't help but hesitate a little.
Mainly, it's quite troublesome.
However, when Chen Qing noticed her expression and glared at her, Lin Guili couldn't help but shuddered and nodded quickly.
Chen Qing added seemingly casually: "Prepare yourself and go down first."
Lin Guili immediately understood that this was punishment, and she couldn't help but feel like crying. If it weren't for her hesitation just now, she could have served the big boss for dinner. Even if the big boss was in a good mood, she might even be able to have dinner together. .
Now, it's ruined.
After Chen Qing gave the instructions, she ignored Lin Guili and told her boss that a rich Chinese meal was prepared here.
After entering the villa, I did not go to the restaurant immediately.
After a busy day, Simon used to take a shower and change his clothes. Chen Qing personally served him, but it was Yu Xiaomin who really did the work.
It's just a bath, nothing more.
Then Simon changed into a casual shirt and trousers, and Chen Qing also changed into a set of women's shirts and trousers, both white shirts and khaki trousers, looking like a couple, but Yu Xiaomin changed into a very beautiful blue and white style. Cheongsam, but unfortunately the lady is a maid, so she can only stand and serve the dishes when entering the restaurant.
Fortunately, it was finally not reduced to a vase.
After finishing the Chinese food on the table, Simon picked up his chopsticks and once again thought of the identity of the cheongsam girl next to him, and asked: "You work on YouTube, right? How are you doing lately?"
How about it
Yu Xiaomin didn't know how to answer for a while. This question was too general.
Or, if she were asked to give an answer from the bottom of her heart, it would be, it's so beautiful.
Just like this time.
Last time, Yu Xiaomin came to participate in the fashion week with Xie Qingmai and Jing Xiaosui, but this time, she was the only one.
As for the reason.
In fact, it was simple. Xie Qingmai took the initiative to leave Jinshu and lean towards another woman in Hangzhou. Jing Xiaosui on the other side can only say that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. She, on the other hand, set up her base in Suzhou, close to water and terraces, and could often see Chen Qing. Although this aunt is very difficult to serve, when she acted so determined, it was also because of the disaster at the beginning. In short, she is now Chen Qing's confidant.
Just like the comparison with Xie Qingmai.
Xie Qingmai is still just a provincial tourism ambassador, and with the full support of Jinshu, mainly Chen Qing, she has a faint tendency to become a representative of the national tourism external promotion, but this matter is too involved after all. That's why I didn't get a formal title.
However, just this year alone, Jing Xiaosui has appeared on CCTV channel three times, and Chen Qing said that she might also show her face in the Spring Festival Gala.
All in all, in the eyes of everyone around her, she is now a famous celebrity at home and abroad who has brought glory to the country. These days, bringing glory to the country and being recognized by foreigners is a big deal.
I don't know how to describe this to the man in front of me. In Simon Westeros's case, her little achievements are not worth mentioning at all.
Simon Westeros, the richest man in the world, is also undoubtedly the most powerful man.
Money, power, these things are often more incomprehensible to ordinary people.
However, when a person has access to the top of the pyramid, the more he can feel the terrifying power represented by money and power. Just like now, if the man in front of him is dissatisfied with everything Yu Xiaomin has, he can take it all away with just one word.
Live and kill.
This is the nature of power.
I can give you glory and wealth, and I can also give you fame and fortune. Similarly, if I don't like you anymore, I can take away all these things with just one sentence and let you fall back into the mortal world, or even into hell.
As the saying goes, if you haven't experienced it, of course it doesn't matter.
However, for those who have seen the scenery at the top of the pyramid, letting them return to the bottom to live, or even knocking them down to the bottom, would be more uncomfortable than directly killing the other party.
At the dining table.
Chen Qing, who was sitting across from her boss, saw that Yu Xiaomin was speechless for a moment and continued with a smile: "The competition on the YouTube platform is very fierce now. Fortunately, Xiaomin works very hard. In China, it doesn't matter that he is the number one YouTuber." Pass."
Simon nodded.
Suddenly I remembered that there seemed to be two other girls last time, but it was a trivial matter and I didn't bother to think about it.
