It is said that three women can perform a show, but three men can do as much as one Zhuge Liang. They can simply clean the house in an hour. Du Guoying basically took over most of the work.
Among the three people, he is the one with the least money and power, so naturally he wants to show off more.
At noon, firecrackers were going off outside, and Kevin stood up and stretched his neck to look outside. He was obviously very curious about the custom of setting off firecrackers and wanted to take a photo, but unfortunately the camera was broken.
Lu Feng was wrapping dumplings, glanced at him, and said, "Kevin, do you know why firecrackers are set off during the Chinese New Year?"
Kevin turned around and said with a bit of arrogance: "I still know this. It has something to do with the Nian beast. In ancient times, people thought that burning firecrackers could scare away the Nian beast."
"Then why do you need to post couplets?" Du Guoying wondered: "Tell Nian Beast?"
"It's to ward off evil spirits!" Lu Feng wrapped the last dumpling in his hand and asked Kevin: "Then why do you want to eat dumplings?"
"Exorcise evil spirits!" Kevin gave his own explanation and said, "Anyway, the entire Spring Festival is a battle against evil spirits."
"You see, you don't understand our country's culture." Lu Feng patted the flour on his hands, looked at Kevin like a teacher and said: "Dumplings, originally called Jiaozi, are the names of Zhang Zhongjing, a famous doctor in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The invention of a medicinal diet is itself a medicinal tonic. It was originally soup dumplings, like wontons, but later developed into dumplings."
"Then why do we eat it during the Chinese New Year?" Du Guoying asked curiously.
Kevin also looked at Lu Feng with curiosity.
"It's delicious! Who stipulates that we can only eat it during the Chinese New Year? You can eat it whenever you want if you have money. We have made the dumplings and you are responsible for cooking them!" Lu Feng ordered towards Kevin.
Du Guoying looked at the large and small pots on the ground filled with vegetables. Some had already been selected, and some were still in the bags. He felt a little dizzy for a moment. It was already noon. All these dishes were cooked, and they were probably ready for dinner.
.
"Boss Lu, these dishes..."
"No more!" Lu Feng picked up the cigarette on the table and lit one.
"Then let's eat dumplings?"
"We have to have food, go out and pack a table and come back." Lu Feng took a puff of cigarette, picked up the car keys and muttered to himself: "It's so damn good to have money."
Du Guoying followed Lu Feng and muttered: "That's so damn good."
After going out to pack a table of food and returning, Kevin successfully cooked a dumpling into soup. Lu Feng looked at the pot of food and sighed, saying, "Let's set off the firecrackers!"
As the firecrackers crackled, everyone sat down, each with a bowl of soup in front of them. Lu Feng picked up the wine glass and said to the two of them: "Let's drink to our fate!"
"Happy New Year!" Kevin said and looked at Lu Feng. Throughout the morning, he didn't mention the compensation for the camera at all, so he had to use words to nudge him and said: "This moment is really wonderful. It's a pity that my
The camera is broken, otherwise I would have to take a picture."
Du Guoying looked at Lu Feng. He obviously didn't want to waste time here, so he took the money and left after eating.
"By the way, when I talk about this camera, I think about industrialization. When I talk about industrialization, I have to mention cars." Lu Feng said to Kevin: "I couldn't sleep because I thought about it last night. We can't sleep like this."
We met each other in a way, I think just because of this fate, my brother has to help you."
"What's wrong?" Du Guoying asked seriously.
"One goes first." Lu Feng picked up the wine glass, clinked it with everyone, and drank it all in one gulp. Lu Feng smashed it into his mouth, took a mouthful of food and said, "It's still about your future. I didn't analyze the situation with you yesterday.
I know whether you heard it or not. However, brother still wants to remind you that choosing a good industry will make it easier for you to succeed."
Seeing that he was doing this again, Kevin picked up the bowl and said, "Young people celebrating the Chinese New Year, don't talk about this anymore, let's have some soup!"
"Let me finish. If you are in a public transportation company or a freight truck company, then I will definitely support you. But what do I see now? It's a pit of fire. I can't just watch you jump into it.
!" Lu Feng said earnestly: "I am warm-hearted and will not harm you. If you go out and ask around, we are all living Lei Feng!"
"Brother, are you from the Northeast?" Du Guoying asked in confusion.
"It doesn't look like it?"
"You have a girly accent!"
"Do we all have to talk like this? Do we have to talk in a roundabout way to be the Northeast Silver?" Lu Feng turned back to Kevin and said: "It's all for your own good. Don't think too much about it, it's like I
It’s like poaching you, it’s okay, even if you go to another car company, I’ll be happy for you.”
"I think what he said makes sense. How old are you?" Du Guoying asked Kevin.
"Fifty-three."
"Look, a man in his fifties is not a boss. This is unreasonable." Du Guoying had a bit of disgust on his face, patted Lu Feng on the shoulder and said: "Look at this guy, twenty-seven, boss."
!”
It is an ironclad fact that the global growth of family cars is slowing down. Otherwise, they would not be rushing to open up the Asian market. Throughout the 1990s, the global growth rate of trucks, vans, and vans has been very fast. Compared with family cars,
Almost like a snail.
As a tool vehicle, it can create wealth and is in the strongest demand in developing countries. The comfort and face of family cars are secondary.
In 1993, the national production volume of household vehicles was 220,000 units, including more than 100,000 Tianjin Daihatsu vans. The sales volume of family cars was less than 50,000 units, many of which were Fukang and other models that were cheaper than the Volkswagen Jetta and Santana.
The output of trucks exceeds 600,000 units. In this era, trucks that carry goods are more popular than those that carry people. Most rural areas do not even have a big truck. They sit on agricultural tricycles with steel frames welded to the body and covered with a blanket.
Layer tarpaulin. This is the main means of transportation.
Kevin also found that after Volkswagen entered the mainland, its sales were not as good as expected. The demand for cars in developed countries has gradually been met. The market that can now be opened up is the Four Little Dragons.
With so many automobile manufacturers competing for a handful of high-growth areas around the world, one can imagine the intensity.
Without the rise of China's economy, the global economy would have reached its peak in the early 2000s. The rise of the mainland has exported the cheapest products to the world. While the economy has increased, this place has been a consumption black hole, and the world's cars and luxury products have continued to increase.
Products, industrial industries, raw materials, high technology and other consumption.
"I'm getting older, and it's good to stay with the public." Kevin didn't really want to answer.
"As long as your eyes are not closed, life cannot end easily. If you try another way, you may gain something unexpected." Lu Feng picked up the bowl and ate some soup.
"I think so too!" Du Guoying said helpfully from the side; "If I were at your age and reached your height, I would definitely do whatever I wanted. Anyway, I wouldn't have to worry about eating and drinking, right."
"I have to say that Mr. Lu's judgment on the family car industry is quite accurate. In the past two years, the growth rate of family cars in mainland China has obviously lagged behind that of trucks." Kevin hesitated for a moment and then said: "It may also be related to the marketing plan."
"It doesn't matter, no matter how good your marketing is, a pauper like me can't afford it!" Du Guoying said to him: "Since it is called the public, it serves the public, but your price is too niche. Mr. Lu
What we do is what we call the masses. There is a saying that the lower the threshold, the bigger the market. The bigger the market, the more fools there will be."
"That's a beautiful thing to say, but it's not appropriate to say the last sentence so directly." Lu Feng picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Du Guoying.
"My fault, my fault, is the noble God of Consumers!" He clinked the cup, drank it all, and continued: "Sugar cane is not sweet at both ends. The important thing is to find the right market, the right crowd, and the right people.
The thing is sold to the right crowd at the right price. The problem is, your crowd is a niche, but you want to become the masses, which in itself goes against the grain!"
Lu Feng clapped his hands and said to Du Guoying: "That's great."
Kevin also looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect this young man to see the problem so clearly!
"If family cars cannot meet the consumption of the vast majority of families, I think it is an industry with no future." Lu Feng said while eating food: "Actually, isn't it just a matter of selling? People, you can't be stubborn. I am this
The last thing people like is to hang themselves from a tree. You must learn to look for opportunities in other trees."
The three people were chatting back and forth about everything from the global business environment to the military and the future of the industry. A box of red wine was bottomed out unknowingly, and the three of them were chatting in full swing.
Lu Feng was already sitting next to Kevin, holding his shoulder with one hand, pinching his eyes with the other, and said slightly drunkenly: "Brother, you didn't mean to say that I poached you or something, I definitely didn't mean that.
It's just fate, right? No one cares about tens of thousands of dollars. Now I just slap the money on the table. You can't just pick up the money and leave, right?"
Kevin looked at Lu Feng for a while and said, "I will pick up the money and leave. I don't want to disturb you any more!"
"Look at you...this old beauty is not interesting enough." Lu Feng took a puff of cigarette and said: "You are in a fog and can't see the situation clearly. It's okay. I won't argue with you. I'll give you a chance. This way
Ah, after the New Year, you come to my company and I will show you how huge the global home appliance market is now."
Kevin wanted to refuse, but he had already seen that Lu Feng would never give up until Lu Feng got him.
He doesn't even want the more than 10,000 yuan now.
Just when he was about to refuse, Du Guoying on the side said hurriedly: "Brother, don't refuse just yet. Let me tell you something. Let's come over here."
Lu Feng was sitting there smoking a cigarette, and Du Guoying called Kevin aside, looking mysterious.
"Is there anything we can't say at the dinner table?" Kevin wondered.
"Brother, I want to ask you something. Maybe you don't know much about it. My family is in special difficulties. The whole family depends on me to support it, but now I..."
Du Guoying's eyes turned red as she spoke, and she couldn't speak any more.
