Chapter 1173 Asking for Advice
Mr. Liu, named Liu Yun, developed into an Internet tycoon in eight years, and was even more powerful than Peng Cheng's company.
The person Peng Cheng recommended was Zhang Xiaobai. The reason why he wanted to recommend him was because he always believed that Zhang Xiaobai should come to this battlefield in order to realize his greater potential.
As a teacher, I am not afraid of students’ potential. On the contrary, the more promising their students are, the better, which is the same as being proud of them!
…
…
Zhang Xiaobai knew nothing about Peng Cheng's arrangements. He just wanted to ask his mentor about something. When he was confused, he needed someone to give him guidance.
Undoubtedly, Teacher Peng Cheng is the best choice.
Driving directly to the hotel and walking into the private room, Zhang Xiaobai saw his former mentor and someone he didn't want to see.
Zhang Xiaobai just glanced at Lu Xiaoqiang, then looked back at Peng Cheng, "Teacher, are you feeling well?"
Peng Cheng patted his belly, picked up the water cup, and said with a smile: "It tastes delicious. I drink wolfberry water every day. How can I be healthy?"
Lu Xiaoqiang smiled and said: "Xiaobai, long time no see!"
Zhang Xiaobai ignored him at all and continued to chat with Teacher Peng Cheng.
The food and wine are served, and the banquet begins.
Peng Cheng doesn't drink, but still drinks wolfberry water.
Lu Xiaoqiang filled two glasses.
Zhang Xiaobai hesitated and took a glass of wine.
Peng Cheng smiled and said: "Xiaobai, I saved this game to give you face. Besides, even criminals have a chance to change their ways. You can't always hold grudges against Xiaoqiang, right?"
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Teacher, as long as you are here today, I won't say anything else."
After taking a sip of wine, the three of them began to reminisce about the past, mainly Lu Xiaoqiang, and they all talked about the past three chapters.
Zhang Xiaobai listened quietly, neither refuting nor agreeing, just treating it as a storytelling.
After finishing speaking, Lu Xiaoqiang asked: "Xiaobai, to be fair, what do you think of my vision?"
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Very good. At that time, you suggested opening an Internet cafe. It was indeed in line with the development of the times and was more profitable than Xiaochangjie. It's a pity that I didn't listen to you."
Lu Xiaoqiang always talks about three short sections, while Zhang Xiaobai always talks about small long sections.
It can be seen that it is difficult to untie the knot in Zhang Xiaobai's heart.
Peng Cheng had nothing to do and was minding his own business, eating vegetables and drinking water.
Lu Xiaoqiang took out a mobile phone and said with a smile: "Xiaobai, have you seen this mobile phone?"
Zhang Xiaobai took a look, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before!"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "This is an Apple mobile phone. We don't have it in China yet, only the United States has it."
"This is a smartphone that can download some games, download programs, and browse websites. It can be used as a simple computer."
Zhang Xiaobai has no interest in mobile phones. He still uses Nokia 1100, the most compact one, which can only make calls and send and receive text messages.
Hearing this description, Zhang Xiaobai was a little shocked and asked: "So many functions?"
Lu Xiaoqiang said seriously: "It has many functions, so it is called a smartphone."
Zhang Xiaobai thought for a while and asked, "What exactly are you going to say to me?"
After all, they had gotten along before, so Zhang Xiaobai knew Lu Xiaoqiang fairly well and knew that he was definitely not just talking about this phone.
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "Xiaobai, now the opportunity has come. Smartphones are definitely in the spotlight. This big opportunity cannot be missed."
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Stop talking nonsense!"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "We can build a mobile phone factory to specialize in the research and development of smartphones, or we can design some programs or games for use on smartphones."
"Xiaobai, in less than two years, smartphones will definitely be popular all over the world. This is our opportunity to make a lot of money!"
Zhang Xiaobai lit a cigarette, took a few puffs slowly, and asked, "Teacher, what do you think?"
Peng Cheng said: "I don't know whether it's a hot topic or not, but I trust Xiaoqiang's judgment. Xiaobai, you should know that although he is a little unreliable, he is still very accurate about something."
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said: "Indeed, this fat man has a really good vision. At that time, he was able to identify the trend of Internet cafes, so I also believe in the judgment of smartphones."
Lu Xiaoqiang was overjoyed and said excitedly: "That's right, heroes really think alike. How about it? Do we want to cooperate? You provide the capital, I provide the technology, and the management is handed over to you!"
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "No! Although I trust your judgment, I will not enter this industry, let alone cooperate with you."
Lu Xiaoqiang looked puzzled.
Peng Cheng's expression remained unchanged, he was silent for a moment, and said: "Xiaobai, I said at that time that you and Xiaoqiang are natural partners. His ideas and your execution will definitely make great achievements."
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Teacher, I will not cooperate with him because I don't trust him."
What Zhang Xiaobai said was tantamount to showing no mercy at all.
Sure enough, Lu Xiaoqiang's face turned cold, "Xiaobai, it's been so many years since that incident, and you still can't let it go? You have to be merciful and merciful. I already know my mistake and have apologized, so why be aggressive?"
Zhang Xiaobai twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Lu Xiaoqiang, don't think too highly of yourself. I have let you go a long time ago, otherwise I would not sit at the same table with you to eat."
"But as for cooperation, I'm sorry. I will not cooperate with someone who has betrayed me."
Zhang Xiaobai remembers clearly that that series of events happened precisely because Lu Xiaoqiang ran away with the money.
Therefore, the Lu Xiaoqiang incident was the introduction to the tragedy.
Lu Xiaoqiang thought for a while, lit a cigarette and smoked without talking.
Peng Cheng sighed lightly. He originally wanted to bring his two most proud disciples together, but it seemed that he had no chance.
Peng Cheng suddenly said: "Xiaobai, what's the matter with you?"
Zhang Xiaobai didn't say much on the phone. He only said that he had some questions to ask Teacher Peng Cheng for advice. Since we can't talk about that matter anymore, let's talk about Zhang Xiaobai's problem.
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said: "Master, when I say this, don't say that I'm pretending to be a coward!"
Peng Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if you're just pretending, I won't blame you."
Zhang Xiaobai stopped his smile and said seriously: "A few days ago, a friend mentioned a word to me, called social responsibility. Teacher, what do you think of this word?"
Peng Cheng was stunned for a moment, not expecting Zhang Xiaobai to say this at all, and then asked: "What do you think?"
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Teacher, to be honest, I have never considered this before. It seems that I am still the poor kid in the ravine. I just want to make a career and take care of my relatives and friends. Regarding the so-called social responsibility, I haven’t thought about it.”
Peng Cheng took a sip of water and said: "I read this passage some time ago, which said that businessmen are all about profit, and they will do anything as long as they make money; businessmen value profits over separation, and do something and not do something at important moments; The next level is called entrepreneurs, who have a conscience and a sense of social responsibility, who can do something tangible for the society and realize their own value.”
"Xiao Bai, it's good for you to think like this. How much money does a person make in his life? The most important thing is where the money can be used!"
"Entrepreneurs take things from the people and use them for the people. This is the spirit of entrepreneurship!"
Zhang Xiaobai thought about it carefully and said, "In other words, I should do something?"
Peng Cheng nodded and said: "Do something for this society within your ability, so that you can realize your value."
"Xiaobai, you are a businessman and a businessman, but I hope you are more of an entrepreneur!"
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do my best!"
After the consultation is over, the meal is over.
When he walked out, Peng Cheng said to Lu Xiaoqiang: "The same starting line, the gap is getting bigger and bigger. Xiaobai's level is so high, you can't even reach it!"
Inadvertently, a stern look flashed in Lu Xiaoqiang's eyes.
