What I drank tonight was white wine. One of the characteristics of good wine is that it doesn't overpower you. However, Lu Gengshen felt that he had drunk too much. He felt like he was floating.
From the beginning of graduation, to being assigned to Shanghai TV Station, to falling in love and getting married, to having his foot broken and almost losing his job, he felt that his life had been gloomy in these years, with no light or hope, but tonight he felt
He floated again. The last time he floated, he clearly remembered that it was after secretly and arduous exploration with his wife in the small shabby dormitory of that TV station.
"It seems that I am right to ask for shares." When he returned home and sat on the spacious sofa, his mother-in-law smiled and poured him a glass of water. His wife was as low-brow as she was when she was in love. Lu Gengshen instantly felt
A feeling of elation spread throughout his body, "Well, I'm busy. If you have time tomorrow, go look around for houses. It must be in a good location and close to school."
"Really?" When he talked about buying a house, his wife immediately became happy and looked at him differently. Her tender look made the mother-in-law cough several times.
well.
Lu Gengshen sighed. When Su Qin failed in lobbying other countries and returned to his hometown in despair, his sister-in-law did not cook for him and his lover was busy weaving. But a few years later, when he returned to his hometown wearing the seal of the Six Kingdoms, his sister-in-law and his lover
They all crouched on the ground, not daring to look at him.
"I want to resign." He suddenly said without thinking.
The mother-in-law and his lover looked at each other, "It's a good company, why don't you just quit with just a few words?"
"Ci, listen to him, that's right." Lu Gengshen said firmly.
…
Portman Hotel.
Shi Jiao wore a white suit today, with wide trouser legs that brought him aura when he walked. This was a kind of high-end and exquisite beauty, so much so that Peng Bing looked intently at Portman's public relations director, forgetting to talk to his brother for a moment.
Blind and poor.
"Hello, Mr. Peng, I am Shi Jiao, the director of the public relations department of this hotel." Shi Jiao's eyebrows were raised, and his thin eyebrows were full of charm. "Master Bang is now famous all over Shanghai, but many people only
Hear his name, but don’t see his person.”
"Master Bang? Who is Master Bang? Tian Dabang?" Peng Bing, who was standing aside, finally couldn't help laughing. She looked at her brother. He was not the bald Mr. Bang who could catch dogs when running!
"Damn girl," Peng Bo replied with a smile, handed her the room card, and told the waiter, "Please take her to the room."
Peng Bing wanted to continue, but looking at his brother's eyes, he could only follow the waiter and leave.
"My sister." Peng Bo introduced with a smile.
"She is very beautiful. She will definitely be a beauty in the future," Shi Jiao said with a smile, "Master Bang, we have officially met. I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future."
Working with hotels?
Peng Bo hasn't thought about it yet, unless he creates a hotel ranking list in the future, he smiled and said, "Definitely."
Shi Jiao was very talkative. Even though he was used to seeing all kinds of beauties after his rebirth, Peng Bo was still very interested in Shi Jiao. When he returned to his room, it was already past eleven o'clock, but Peng Bing was still studying under the lamp.
Peng Bing was the cutest when he was studying. He looked thoughtful and didn't talk much. After ordering desserts and fruits for him, Peng Bo went back to his room.
He also has articles to write, articles for financial newspapers. In the journalist industry, working hours depend on the interview schedule. If you go to the suburbs, you may start work at six or seven o'clock, while interviews in the city may happen at eight, nine, or ten o'clock.
His busiest time is after four o'clock in the afternoon, which is also the time to get off work, but he still has to finish the manuscript. Well, I guess he will have to work all night tonight.
It's better for him like this. Some nanny reporters have to work all night with their children to finish the manuscript. After writing two strokes, the child cries and is coaxed. After coaxing them, they continue writing. This is even more miserable.
He got up and went to the bathroom, washed his face, and made himself more awake. The deadline for this manuscript of several thousand words was about to come. He was under great pressure and unwilling to start writing, so he delayed it until now.
Well, it's 12 o'clock. He feels that he has gotten into a good state. It seems that he can publish at two or three o'clock. Well, he writes until three o'clock, falls asleep at five o'clock, and the alarm goes off at seven or eight o'clock. He presses it and is determined to be absent from work.
.
Just as he was planning this, his phone rang.
"Hello, Donald, I didn't disturb your rest." Laurie Minerd, editor-in-chief of Forbes, always likes to call at this time.
"Fortunately, I'm working on a manuscript." Peng Bo was on the phone while writing the manuscript without any delay. "The idea of the top 100 colleges and universities list is very good. I know China's college entrance examination, so I chose this time to make this list. It's really amazing."
Very meaningful…”
"There is no such list in China yet." Peng Bo could only do two things.
"Forbes' annual ranking of the best colleges in the United States is also being produced. Our list is different from lists such as U.S. News, QS and the which focus on academic achievements. Its evaluation benchmark is not only academic performance, but also subject rankings.
And admission rate and other aspects..."
"In what way?"
"The metrics for our rankings have changed a bit this year, with the addition of America's Leaders list indicator. In addition to alumni income, Forbes will use its own data to measure the success of American college graduates. Data sources include Forbes' list,
The richest women list, the most influential women list and the elite list under 30 years old, etc..."
"But, Laurie, this is China. Both Chinese and Americans have a passion for famous schools, but we don't look at the income of alumni at this stage. I know what you mean, based on how many graduates there are from this school.
When it comes to millionaires and billionaires, we now only look at the academic achievements and discipline construction of this university."
"This may be the difference between Chinese and American universities," Laurie Minard also recognized the difference. "If according to our standards, there are some changes in the Forbes ranking of America's top universities this year, Harvard is still ranked first.
Yale University ranked second, Stanford University ranked third, MIT and Princeton University ranked fourth and fifth..."
Have you ever felt that late-night phone calls are annoying, especially when there is still a manuscript to be written? Peng Bo can only deal with it. Lauriminard also realizes that it is past midnight in China, "The manuscript fee will be called soon."
By the way, it’s already June, the new Rich List, Donald, what do you think?”
In August last year, the Rich List was released, and now there are still two months left in August. “Also, Donald, by the way, William Poulos is going to China again. He is now the president of Forbes Asia.
…”
I can't say I have a good or bad impression of this person Peng Bo. At the last star list press conference, his performance was not very enthusiastic.
But Peng Bo doesn't think about anything else now and can only concentrate on the manuscript.
But when the alarm clock rang the next day, he remembered that he really couldn't be lazy today. His schedule was to fly to Zhejiang and then transfer to Hengdian.
After calling Wu Qianyu and asking her to settle Peng Bing's life, he hurried to the airport.
"Well, today, Forbes sent the money. For this list, we will talk to the TV station first, and then talk about the title. The TV station will be very interested in this program. By the way, tell Lao Lu that this list can be done.
"The program of about forty episodes," Peng Bo called while walking, "can be made into a documentary format. In addition, this university has asked Yusen to take the lead. You and Heinwei will prepare this year's rich list. It is now June.
, there are still two months to go..."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Peng," Wu Qianyu seemed to be saying something. Her voice lowered, but immediately rose up, "Someone wants to see you about naming the university list. He said, he
Yes...Oh, we told him that you are going on a business trip soon, and he is rushing to the airport..."
oh.
At the airport, Peng Bo immediately stopped and said, okay, let the plane be delayed, he must meet this person.
In China's business world, he is the most unique existence.
He is not bragging or slanderous. He who was born in the 1960s has taken a different path from other entrepreneurs. Li Shufu, Xu Jiayin, Sun Hongbin and other "contemporaries" are still struggling on the front line, but he has long been hidden behind the scenes in order to make his own way forward.
The way in which the business truths he has learned over half his life is passed on to young people without reservation affects the existing business landscape.
His business wisdom is being praised by his disciples: "Among my angel investors, the one who has the greatest influence on me is..., he keeps educating me to do the right thing first, and then do it right."
