Qin Hai said while holding his head. That is to say, in front of Ning Zhongying, he could show such a fragile and helpless look. On other occasions, even if he was unsure, he would still pretend to be confident.
"Would you like to smoke one?" Ning Zhongying handed the cigarette case to Qin Hai.
Before Qin Hai could refuse, Song Yulan had already poked her head out of the kitchen and cursed angrily: "You old thing, you don't learn well yourself, and you taught Xiao Qin to smoke. He and Xiao Jing haven't had a child yet, this
If you let him smoke when the time comes, do you still want to have a healthy grandson?"
"Uh..." Qin Hai was embarrassed. He had never smoked. This had nothing to do with "closing mountains to cultivate forests" in order to have children. However, Song Yulan's words gave him an excuse to refuse, and he smiled at Ning.
Zhongying waved his hand and said, "Dad, I just couldn't figure it out for the moment. There's no need for this."
Ning Zhongying handed Qin Hai cigarettes, which was just a habitual action. When he and his old buddies discussed complicated matters, each of them would hold a cigarette in his hand. It seemed that not having such a thing would affect his thinking.
He also knew that Qin Hai did not smoke, and occasionally used this to educate Ning Mo. Seeing Qin Hai wave his hand, he took back the cigarette case, and then said: "Tell me, what's wrong with you? Is it that the group has suffered a loss?"
Or do you feel you have been wronged?"
Qin Hai thought about many questions on the way from Hongze to Pingyuan, but he did not expect Ning Zhongying to directly simplify the question into a two-choice choice. He was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly:
"It should be...a combination of both, right?"
"When you wanted to build a materials college, you discussed it with me. You talked a lot about the benefits of building a materials college to our group, but I can tell that this is just an excuse. Your real idea is that you don't want these talents to be lost.
Is that so?" Ning Zhongying asked.
Qin Hai thought for a while, nodded and said, "I really can't remember it. After hearing your reminder, it seems that this is really the case."
"Later, these imported experts produced many patents, which really created a lot of revenue for the group. The existence of the School of Materials has also become the core competitiveness of the group, so you start to regard the School of Materials as your own private property.
Are you afraid that others will take away the benefits?" Ning Zhongying asked again.
Qin Hai smiled awkwardly: "Dad...please don't always hit the nail on the head like this, okay?"
It has to be said that Ning Zhongying is more like an outsider than Qin Hai. And with more than 60 years of life experience, he sees the problem much more profoundly than Qin Hai. Qin Hai himself has not thought clearly. Or maybe he doesn't.
What he was willing to admit became obvious as soon as Jing Ning Zhongying said it. Comparing Qin Hai's original intention of establishing the School of Materials with his current attitude towards the School of Materials, Qin Hai himself couldn't help but blush.
"Xiao Qin, I want to ask you, what is your purpose in establishing the Daqin Group?" Ning Zhongying changed his serious face and asked Qin Hai.
"The purpose..." Qin Hai pondered, "At first, it was mainly to make some money and improve his life; later on, he hoped to become a big entrepreneur and be able to do things he wanted to do.
As for now...if I said it was for the prosperity of the country, would you believe it?"
When he said the last sentence, Qin Hai showed a bit of self-deprecation. He really wanted to tell Ning Zhongying that he really thought so. He didn't mean to make a high-profile statement, but Ning Zhongying would believe it.
? In a society where everyone is "looking at money", will it be considered hypocritical to claim that what you do is for the prosperity of the country?
Contrary to Qin Hai's expectation, Ning Zhongying nodded firmly and said, "Of course I believe it. I may not believe what others say. Why don't I believe what Qin Hai said?"
"But...why do you believe it?" Qin Hai said in surprise.
Ning Zhongying said: "You, Qin Hai, are very smart and flexible. You are a good hand in material research and you also have many clever ideas in marketing. There are some things that make me, an old man, feel inferior. You are fighting against Japanese companies, and
The calculations against Wang Peichao are all conspiracies. From this point of view, you are not the kind of upright person we usually say."
"Old man, are you criticizing me or praising me?" Qin Hai muttered depressedly.
"It's neither criticism nor praise, just an objective evaluation of you." Ning Zhongying said domineeringly, "However, one thing I am most satisfied with you is that you, Xiao Qin, are not selfish.
Man, you are compassionate and patriotic, and you will always have your friends and colleagues around you, as well as your family and country in your heart. This is much stronger than many people."
"This...it's actually nothing." Qin Hai pretended to be modest. Ning Zhongying's eyes were blazing, and his evaluation of him was very accurate. Naturally, Qin Hai would not deny it hypocritically. Being able to leave such a person in Ning Zhongying's mind
This impression also made Qin Hai quite proud. He finally understood why the old man married his daughter to him. It turned out that he was such a tall person.
Ning Zhongying ignored Qin Hai's words and continued:
"In our time, everyone talked about patriotism and dedication. Some people were really patriotic and really wanted to contribute, while others just followed the crowd, followed the trend, or even pretended to be patriotic. Until now, no one in society has
There is too much emphasis on dedication. Some people who keep saying they are patriotic and dedicated, many want to engage in political speculation. What they say and what they do are completely inconsistent.
Only you, Qin Hai, don't usually talk about these big words, but the things you do are worthy of the four words of patriotism and dedication. The most valuable thing is that when you do all these things, you don't deliberately show it.
, but comes from your true heart.
In order to make everyone accept your approach, you often have to put a layer of disguise on what you do for the country, falsely claiming that it is for the group and for yourself. People are afraid that others will not know that you have done good things, and you have done good things.
If you still have to cover up, it shows that you are upright in your heart, which is much more valuable than someone who is upright on the surface."
"Thank you, Dad, for your understanding." Qin Hai suddenly felt that his throat was a little lumpy. Ning Zhongying was an old man he respected very much. Being able to receive such high praise from Ning Zhongying, Qin Hai felt that he had been in this world for more than ten years.
Everything I have done over the years has been worth it.
Over the years, Qin Hai has helped the military make money, developed cutting-edge technology, protected rare earth resources, built a materials college, eliminated pollution, and done many things that other private capitalists could not do. He explained to others that the purpose of this was to
The long-term interests of the group are to find a protective umbrella for himself and to pursue a win-win situation, but he knows in his heart that the most critical reason is that he has a desire to serve the country and society. As a person with two lifetimes of memory, he
I don’t want my life to be too dull.
Ning Zhongying has a clear understanding of what Qin Hai has done. As an entrepreneur of the older generation, he also has a feeling of family and country. He sees that his younger generation can inherit his mantle and do these things for the country and the people.
It was a good thing. Ning Zhongying felt very relieved. He had not disclosed this to Qin Hai before, because he felt that these things did not need to be expressed in words, and everyone could understand it tacitly. This time, Qin Hai
Hai was confused because of the personnel turnover in the School of Materials Science. Ning Zhongying felt that it was time to talk to Qin Hai about his ideals and life.
"Qin Hai, the money you earn now is enough for you to live comfortably for ten or a hundred lifetimes. Your parents, me and Jing Jing's mother, Xiao Mo, Xiao Shan, Xiao Ling, they all live a comfortable life.
You are very wealthy, and this is all the money you earned. At this point, what else do you need to earn money for? If a person only earns money for himself, then what is the use of earning so much money?" said Ning Zhongying.
Qin Hai nodded and said: "Yes, I think so too. When a person already has enough food and clothing, earning more money is just a number. Only by using this wealth to repay the society can we
It’s valuable.”
"In that case, why are you still angry?" Ning Zhongying chuckled and brought the topic back to the original topic.
"It's me." Qin Hai patted his head embarrassedly. Yes, since he built the School of Materials with the mentality of protecting talents from the very beginning, now that the social environment has improved, these talents hope
If he can return to his post and play a role, why should he stop him?
Although the conditions provided by the School of Materials Science and Technology are very good, compared with the scientific research environment provided by key national universities and key research institutions, they are still lacking. If those academic experts can return to the podium of key universities
How can the students trained by the School of Materials be comparable to those of the School of Materials? If experts in various fields can participate in national key projects, their value will be more than what can be reflected by creating a few patents in the School of Materials?
When I heard that scholars like Yan Shuncheng intended to leave, I felt a sense of loss and frustration. In the final analysis, I had forgotten my true intentions and regarded the School of Materials and all these experts and scholars as my private property. Daqin Group
He is already so huge, his net worth has exceeded tens of billions, isn't he still not satisfied?
"Some people do very well in the School of Materials Science and Technology. If you drive them away, they may not leave. There are also some people whose hearts have already moved. Even if you can force them to stay, it will not be of any benefit. Instead, they will lose their original accumulation.
The reputation of the students has been ruined. In my opinion, we should simply be more generous and come and go freely. I believe that most people have conscience, and even if they leave the School of Materials, their hearts will stay here. Let them
Playing your role in various fields will eventually be of great help to our group." Ning Zhongying said to Qin Hai earnestly. (To be continued.)
