Chapter 767 He is a legend (5100-character chapter) 1450
Hearing what Wang Hongsheng said, Zhou Wenyi's pupils subconsciously shrank a little, and he asked: "From nothing to one of the top ten outstanding entrepreneurs in Qicheng in three years?"
He didn't think that Wang Hongsheng would lie at this juncture, and he never thought that Qicheng would set the threshold for evaluating 'outstanding entrepreneurs in the city' so low.
As long as the records are left unchecked, there will only be one result: this person is indeed very capable.
Wang Hongsheng nodded: "Yes, the information I learned is that in early 2009, he just rented a garage to make a living. Later, as his online sales grew larger, he began to increase production capacity.
, renting a production workshop, during the past three years, he bought a piece of land with a loan and two pieces of land at his own expense, all of which were used to build his own factory."
"During this period, we even merged and acquired two companies that were on the verge of bankruptcy, helping the local government solve the huge problem of reemployment of employees of bankrupt companies."
"That's not all. As far as I know, their company has also found more than a dozen OEM companies across the province. The annual output value increased from tens of millions in the first year to 1.5 billion last year. I believe their company
This year’s production value will be even higher!”
Wang Hongsheng introduced Xia Zekai.
This time Zhou Wenyi was interested in the person Wang Hongsheng was talking about. He asked: "What's his name? Why haven't I heard of him?"
"Xia Zekai!"
"Xia Zekai? How old is he?" Zhou Wenyi asked again...
When Zhou Wenyi thought about it, this person must be quite old. With so many wise and demonic ideas, he must be an experienced old guy.
But he never expected that Wang Hongsheng stretched out three fingers: "This year coincides with the thirties of the year."
"How big is it?" Zhou Wenyi's voice rose a few points unconsciously.
Wang Hongsheng told him with certainty: "I am turning thirty this year, which is a great time to develop my career."
"I really want to meet such a person right away." Zhou Wenyi couldn't help but sigh, and also raised his curiosity.
When he thought about it, this man had achieved the feat of achieving an annual output value of 1.5 billion from nothing. If a three-year prefix was added to this leaping stage, then he would be a legend.
No wonder the Qicheng City Government selected him as one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Entrepreneurs in Qicheng", so he must be even better in other aspects.
Wang Hongsheng got off the donkey along the slope and said, "How about I call him now and let's have a meal together?"
"Does he have time?" Zhou Wenyi felt that if there was a chance, it would be good to get to know this person, but he couldn't 'use his power to pressure others'.
Wang Hongsheng said: "Then I'll call him now and ask."
After he finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and called Xia Zekai in front of Zhou Wenyi. He also put the phone on speakerphone to show that he was not playing any tricks.
Zhou Wenyi smiled, but Wang Hongsheng's small gesture really touched his heart, and he thought that Wang Hongsheng was a useful person.
After Xia Zekai answered Wang Hongsheng's call, Wang Hongsheng and Zhou Wenyi heard the sound of a TV playing a program on the opposite side of the phone, as well as the voices of several people talking.
Wang Hongsheng thought, Boss Xia probably wouldn't be able to make it tonight.
As he was thinking this, he heard Xia Zekai's voice from the other side: "Mayor Wang, why are you calling me at this time?"
"I'm with Mr. Zhou now. Mr. Zhou heard me talk about you and he really wants to get to know you. Do you have time now?" Wang Hongsheng asked him.
On the other side, Xia Zekai, who was at his mother-in-law's house in Yicheng, was a little confused, but after thinking about it for a moment and thinking about how many times Wang Hongsheng mentioned this 'Mr. Zhou', he understood that this 'Mr. Zhou' should be a character.
Could it be that he is the new leader of the city government?
He didn't know that he had won the first guess, but seeing his wife's grandfather and third uncle drinking wine, he couldn't bear to leave his "family" at this time, so he rushed back overnight.
"Mayor Wang, I'm really sorry. I'm at my father-in-law's house in Yicheng now. Otherwise, I'll go back tomorrow. I'll arrange a meeting tomorrow night for you to have a chat with Mr. Zhou."
When Wang Hongsheng and Zhou Wenyi at the "Bocai Restaurant" heard what Xia Zekai said, they couldn't possibly ask Xia Zekai to come back overnight, which would be a bit difficult.
But Xia Zekai took the initiative to make an appointment. The two looked at each other, and Wang Hongsheng saw Zhou Wenyi nodding slightly. He then said to Xia Zekai, "Then let's see you tomorrow night."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wenyi asked again: "Comrade Hongsheng, tell me what else Mr. Xia has done. I really want to know more about it."
Now everyone is using the title of ‘Mr. Xia’.
Wang Hongsheng didn't know what to say. He thought about it and suddenly thought of something and said, "Did you know that there was a youth football match some time ago?"
Zhou Wenyi thought for a while and said: "You are talking about the children's football game that started at the end of last year. I remember it just ended some time ago, right."
He likes football and has paid attention to it, but he was too busy and did not watch it in detail or understand it deeply. He did not expect that this football game is related to the place where he just took up his new job.
Wang Hongsheng nodded: "That competition was organized by Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. at a cost of more than 20 million."
"The full name of that game is 'Jingtong Cup Youth Football Game'."
"From the perspective of the overall development of Qicheng, this competition promotes the ancient city culture of Qicheng and further enhances Qicheng's influence." Wang Hongsheng said.
Before he finished, he continued: "Although Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. is a new enterprise, they have never lagged behind others in helping local poor people to re-employ, and donating money and materials to education. They have always been at the forefront of the city.
In front of big business.”
This night, although 'Xia Zekai' has not yet appeared, his name has already left a strong mark on the hearts of the newly arrived leaders of the Qicheng City Government.
…
At the same time, in Yicheng, Xia Zekai was drinking wine with three elders. Watching Xia Zekai hang up the phone, the old man asked him: "Zekai, who made the call? You are so ignorant, how can you have a holiday?"
I won’t let you have any leisure either.”
"Hey, grandpa, it was a deputy mayor from Qicheng who called me, the second-in-command of the Qicheng City Government." Xia Zekai said casually, he didn't really care.
But in the ears of some elders, this was no longer the case.
"Zekai, you can talk to such a big official now." The old man now stopped mentioning what he had just said about the other party's "ignorance".
The third uncle and father-in-law also looked at him, with particularly strange expressions on their faces.
Xia Zekai thought for a while and finally said: "Grandpa, the main thing is that I have a better personal relationship with this person."
"..."
The three elders stopped talking, and even the mother-in-law Liu Chunhua, who was playing with Yatou and Tongtong, stopped talking. Listen, is this human language?
That night, Xia Zekai accompanied the three elders to drink until past nine o'clock. After all, they had to show their age, and after that, they couldn't drink anymore.
Knowing that Xia Zekai had to go back tomorrow to talk about business (eating) with the senior leader, they also asked Xia Zekai to rest early and rush back early tomorrow morning, so as not to waste the senior leader's time.
Xia Zekai was very depressed, where did he start talking about this?
Liu Chunhua hesitated to speak. She originally wanted to let her daughter and granddaughter stay at home for two more days during the holidays, but her son-in-law had 'business' there, and she couldn't say anything to force him to stay, lest anyone else.
I think she, an old lady, is ignorant.
The next morning, after Xia Zekai and the others had breakfast at their hometown, they were chased away by Liu Chunhua and Luo Qing.
The reason is that we must not delay the business.
But for Xia Zekai, spending more time with his family is the main thing, and everything else is nothing.
On the way back, Luo Xiyun did not blame him.
It's good to come back. Now, neither her husband nor herself live just for themselves. Everyone is burdened with many things, and there is no time for them to be willful.
"It's the holidays next time, so I'll take the time to come back and have a look." Luo Xiyun said.
Xia Zekai said: "On the 15th and 16th, you call our mother and ask them to stay for a few days in advance, and then help prepare for the wedding in the new city."
Luo Xiyun rolled her eyes at him: "You are the only one who is too thoughtful."
But she was so happy that she didn't say anything else.
The car continued to drive smoothly on the highway.
Yatou and Tongtong stayed in the safety seats at the back. The two sisters kept arguing about something, but what exactly were they talking about?
Luo Xiyun and Xia Zekai were stunned because they did not understand which language the two girls spoke.
When we returned to Qicheng, it was not even ten o'clock in the morning.
While his wife was packing her things, Xia Zekai called Wang Hongsheng and asked him to have dinner again.
"You're back so soon?" Wang Hongsheng asked him.
Xia Zekai said: "No, I had a bite to eat at my hometown early this morning and hurried back."
He also said: "If you two are free at noon, I can treat you to dinner now."
At this point, he asked: "Mayor Wang, to be precise, is Mr. Zhou the new leader?"
Wang Hongsheng was a little depressed. He didn't expect Xia Zekai to guess this. Could it be that there was someone in the municipal party committee and government who had a good relationship with Xia Zekai?
"How did you guess it?" Wang Hongsheng asked him, and said, "I probably didn't give you a hint last night, right?"
"That's not true, but once you called 'Mr. Zhou', I knew it." Xia Zekai said with a smile.
I have to admit that some people's intuition in certain aspects is beyond ordinary people, such as Xia Zekai.
After making an appointment for the evening, Xia Zekai went upstairs carrying a bag of vegetables from home.
Luo Xiyun also asked him how his appointment went that night.
Xia Zekai told her: "It's all done, let's talk about it in detail tonight."
He didn't hide it from his wife and told her the identity of the other person.
This surprised Luo Xiyun. She said: "How long has it been? It has been arranged so quickly?"
Xia Zekai shook his head and said: "I guess it should be arranged directly by the superiors, but those things have nothing to do with us, we just do our job well."
Luo Xiyun almost slapped him, as if she was meddling in his own business.
Having just returned from their hometown, Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun were too lazy to cook. When they were thinking about what to eat out for lunch, someone knocked on the door outside.
Xia Zekai went over and opened the door and saw his second brother Xia Yunhui standing outside the door.
"Second brother, come in quickly." Xia Zekai opened the door and let Xia Yunhui in.
Xia Yunhui said after entering the door: "I just heard some movement upstairs, so I came over to take a look. You are really back."
"I went back to Yicheng yesterday and I just got home. I haven't packed my luggage yet." Xia Zekai said, pointing to the two suitcases on the ground.
Luo Xiyun was arranging clothes in the bedroom. She came out when she heard the noise, said hello and went back to work.
Xia Yunhui said: "What else are you sorting out? Go to my place to have some food first, and then come back and sort it out after you're done."
"Second brother, to be honest, we were worried about what to eat when we came here." Xia Zekai was not polite.
"Wait a minute, I'll call Ze Jiang and Xiao Shen." Xia Yunhui also said.
"Have they been here?" Xia Zekai didn't expect his brother to come.
Xia Yunhui nodded and said, "I came here this morning, but you were not at home, so they went to my place to sit for a while, saying they went out to look at the furniture."
Xia Yunhui took out his mobile phone and dialed his cousin's number. He said, "Zejiang, your brother and your sister-in-law are back. You two should come over for dinner, and then look at the furniture after dinner."
What a coincidence.
Xia Yunhui hung up the phone after saying a few words. He said to Xia Zekai, "Okay, Zejiang and the others will be back in a moment."
"Don't pack it up, go down first."
Xia Zekai called his wife and children and went downstairs to eat at his second brother's place.
Less than half an hour after chatting with the second brother at home, his brother Xia Zejiang and his sister-in-law Shen Jiayi came over, and they bought two boxes of fruit.
When they saw Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun, they shouted: "Brother, sister-in-law!"
"Brother, you just came back." Xia Zejiang asked.
Xia Zekai nodded: "How is your furniture shopping going?"
"None of them work well. They look pretty, but they are not practical. I want to buy something made of wood, which will last longer and not look boring." Xia Zejiang said this.
Hearing what his brother said, Xia Zekai said: "I know a furniture seller. They have their own factory and also make wooden furniture. The furniture in my house was customized from them. Why don't you ask her to take a look?"
"Brother, is this person making ready-made furniture? Is it too late?" Xia Zejiang considered that they were planning to get married in two months, so he thought about buying some ready-made furniture.
But the furniture in his brother's house is so beautiful, I just like it when I look at it.
Shen Jiayi's eyes lit up.
At this time, Luo Xiyun said: "Boss Ren has stores in Red Star Macalline and Zhoucheng Furniture Mall. There are also ready-made furniture in the store. They all make them themselves. In terms of price, I think it is relatively affordable. You can
Go check it out.”
Shen Jiayi nodded: "Sister-in-law, why don't you tell me and we'll go take a look in the afternoon."
"Okay, I'll call Boss Ren and give you her phone number." Luo Xiyun was happy to help.
She said: "The furniture in our villa is made by their furniture factory. It is fully customized, so it is a little troublesome."
While talking, Luo Xiyun had already called Ren Cuiling.
Ren Cuiling got through quickly. She thought Luo Xiyun was urging the furniture, so she came up and said: "Mr. Luo, the furniture has been cut out. It will be finished this month and the varnish will be applied next month..."
"Boss Ren, I'm not pushing for furniture. My husband's brother is getting married soon. I want to buy some good quality and cost-effective furniture. I immediately thought of you."
This makes people feel very comfortable in their hearts.
Ren Cuiling was no exception. She quickly smiled and said: "Mr. Luo, ask them to come to me at Red Star Macalline. If they like it, I will definitely give them the best price."
"Okay, then I'll give them your phone number. My brother's name is Xia Zejiang."
After hanging up the phone, Luo Xiyun gave Ren Cuiling's phone number to Xia Zejiang, and told him that if he comes across furniture that he likes, don't be embarrassed and negotiate a lower price.
The second sister-in-law was cooking, and the second brother mentioned something: "Zekai, if you are free tomorrow, let's go play football together."
When he was talking about this, Xia Jingrui, who was doing homework next to him, suddenly raised his head and looked over. He stopped doing homework and stared at Uncle Kai closely.
Xia Zekai also remembered the promise he made to his nephew and said, "I must be free, brother, go to the gym?"
"Let's go to the outskirts to find a refreshing place and have a picnic and barbecue." Xia Yunhui said.
"Brother, are you not busy anymore?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Xia Yunhui nodded: "These days, most factories are on holiday, but Kelan Chemical is still working overtime to catch up on work. The six trucks I know are on standby with them. They can load the trucks and leave at any time. I don't have to keep an eye on them.
OK, if anything happens, I can just give Manager Huang a call and it will be resolved."
This means that this piece has been played around.
After hearing this, Xia Zekai was very happy for his brother and said, "That's fine."
The three brothers didn't drink much at noon. Xia Yunhui was not happy and said to Xia Zekai: "Brother, you have made me drink a lot before."
"Brother, I really can't do it today. I have an appointment with the first and second leaders of the Qicheng City Government for dinner tonight. I will have some drinks then. Let's drink tomorrow while we play." Xia Zekai explained.
After hearing his cousin say this and knowing that he was not joking on purpose, Xia Yunhui let him go.
However, when he heard his cousin casually saying that he was inviting the city's top leaders to dinner, he couldn't tell how he felt, but he knew that he was still a little proud.
When Xia Zejiang listened to his brother's understatement about inviting the top leader to dinner, he suddenly thought of something.
That was when he came to Qicheng from Jicheng to play with his brother. When he went back, his brother sent him to Qicheng Railway Station.
At that time, the two brothers were standing in the station square in front of Qicheng Railway Station. His brother once said that one day he would make his name a business card of this city.
It seems that his brother is getting closer and closer to this goal.
