"Haha, brother, please help us prepare Sichuan-flavored dipping sauce."
Cheng Wei looked at Chen Dongcheng's expression and couldn't help laughing and patted the waiter on the shoulder.
The waiter was also used to it, not everyone could accept their weird taste, and made six new dipping sauces.
Although the red dipping sauce from Sichuan Province is at least more reliable than their green dipping sauce.
"Come on, everyone do it, you're welcome."
Cheng Wei put the yak meat into the hot pot. There wasn't much of a difference, just more yak meat.
The table is full of yak meat, yak tongue, and even yak balls.
Cheng Wei poured a glass for everyone, raised his glass and said, "Come, try this highland barley wine. This is one of the characteristics of their Tibetan area."
Chen Dongcheng took a sip. It was similar to rice wine, that is, it was about three or four degrees and not intoxicating.
Liu Qing's condition is much better than in the afternoon.
She would also take the initiative to chat a few words, and the person Liu Qing brought with her was one of her best friends.
It happened to be a rare opportunity to visit a Tibetan area, so I came along.
"I didn't expect that Ahri would admit defeat first in this money-burning battle."
Liu Qing felt a little emotional, took a sip of highland barley wine and said: "I think it makes no sense to continue fighting Kuaidi and Didi like this. In the end, they can only make Uber cheaper. Merging the two companies is the best way to fight against Uber."
If we compare the three metaphors vividly, Chen Dongcheng is more inclined to Wei, Shu and Wu during the Three Kingdoms period.
There is no doubt that Uber is a powerful company and will soon enter the country with a high valuation.
At this time, Didi and Kuaidi were still fighting each other and did not take the threat from Uber seriously.
Cheng Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's easier said than done. Just how to divide the shares after the merger is a difficult problem."
Didi's valuation is much higher than Kuaidi's, so it is naturally unwilling to take out more shares.
The investors behind Kuaidi certainly don’t want to get only a small share.
Liu Qing was silent, this was also the most troublesome.
Unless Didi can quickly subdue Kuaishou, even if none of the backers behind it say anything, will it have a chance to merge with the other party.
Moreover, there are so many taxi-hailing software on the market that we really need such an opportunity to clear up the situation.
"Let's eat the food first. We won't talk about business this time, we will just relax and have fun."
The trip to Tibetan areas prepared by Cheng Wei had actually completely tilted the balance in Liu Qing's mind to Didi's side.
After eating here, everyone thought it was just average.
The catering in Tibetan areas is indeed, as Cheng Wei said, not very distinctive.
"Everyone go back and have a rest early. If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to take oxygen in the oxygen bar on the next floor. Also, remember not to take a shower, as it can easily cause altitude sickness."
Cheng Wei gave some instructions and went back to the bedroom to rest.
Chen Dongcheng returned to the bedroom and sent some messages to Li Xingyao and the others.
After telling me about my visit to the Tibetan area, I felt a little sleepy and fell asleep.
…
With Cheng Wei around, everyone got used to it for two days and ate a lot of yak meat and local food, which allowed their bodies to adapt to the Tibetan environment.
"I can finally come out to play today."
Liu Qing said something depressed, but she also knew that Cheng Wei was doing it for everyone's good.
Otherwise, once altitude sickness occurs, it will be quite scary.
"We are lucky, let's go, let's go to the Potala Palace today."
The hotel is located closest to the Potala Palace, so the first stop for the group was the Potala Palace.
The Potala Palace in winter looks quiet, solemn and holy under the blue sky.
It is like a temple in the snow, shining under the warm winter sun.
At an altitude of 3,700 meters, Chen Dongcheng found that everyone walking towards the palace lowered their heads and moved slowly step by step.
There was no noise along the way, only the prayers and chanting of devout people.
There were sounds of chanting, prayer tubes, footsteps, and even heavy breathing due to lack of oxygen on the plateau.
All moving in the direction of the clockwise movement, they gathered into a beautiful piece of music, floating in the sky above the Potala Palace.
I met a Tibetan by chance, and the weathered look on his face could not hide his piety.
Cheng Wei explained in a low voice: "This is probably the most devout Tibetan I have ever encountered before.
They will kowtow step by step and go through 8,000 miles of snow and frost to reach the Potala Palace."
Everyone was in awe. Chen Dongcheng didn't understand the world of pilgrims, but he could respect it.
Such pilgrims have long regarded money as dung.
No wonder some people on the Internet say that Tibetan areas are the last piece of pure land in China.
Chen Dongcheng also sincerely hopes that this kind of pure land can last longer.
They did not bother or give alms, they just silently experienced this faith.
Liu Qing looked at the pilgrims silently, and her heart gradually changed.
The reason why she didn't reject Cheng Wei and followed him to the Tibetan area was because she wanted to make this decision.
Whether she succeeds or fails, she has no regrets.
After passing the pilgrims, walk along the square on the top of the mountain.
Cheng Wei took Chen Dongcheng and others to visit the White House, where the lama lives.
The door is not as gorgeous as the Forbidden City, but there is something wonderful inside.
There are murals everywhere inside, depicting various Fudo Bodhisattvas.
Come out of the White House and walk along the passage to the Red Palace. The Red Palace is mainly the Buddhist hall and the pagoda hall of the famous Lamas of the past dynasties.
After the whole tour, I was deeply shocked.
No wonder those Internet tycoons go to Tibetan areas as long as they retreat.
After coming here once, my mood has improved.
In the next few days, Cheng Wei rented a car and took Chen Dongcheng and others to Yamdrok Yumco.
Yamdrok Yumcuo is one of the three sacred lakes in the hearts of Tibetans.
Winter is the off-season, so when Chen Dongcheng and the others came to Yamdrok Yumcu, there were not many people there.
The Toyota Land Cruiser stopped at the Gangbala Pass. According to Cheng Wei, this is the best place to view Yamdrok Yumco.
The lakeshore in winter is covered with ice for thousands of miles.
Yanghu is like a beautiful woman wrapped in silver, lying quietly among the peaks.
The mountains on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are covered with snow, and the drive there is quite thrilling.
Liu Qing could feel Cheng Wei and Chen Dongcheng's sincerity towards her.
After getting off the car and walking to the shore, Liu Qing burst into tears without warning as she looked at the frozen Yamdrok Yumcuo.
Cheng Wei and Chen Dongcheng looked at each other, women are emotional.
Cheng Wei's efforts during this period are finally bearing fruit.
Cheng Wei lit a cigarette for Chen Dongcheng, and the two looked at Yamdrok Yongtso without saying anything.
There were only the sounds of Liu Qing's sobs from time to time and the comforting sounds of her girlfriends beside her.
When I finish smoking a cigarette, the crying stops.
Cheng Wei's heartbeat accelerated, and he could feel that the answer he had dreamed of was finally coming.
"Mr. Cheng, I hope we can work together in the future."
When Liu Qing returned to the car from the shore, except for some tears on her face, she had returned to normal and was smiling very happily.
Cheng Wei nodded excitedly: "Don't worry, I will do my best to give you the best treatment."
"It's not easy."
Chen Dongcheng also expressed some emotion that it took more than a month to deal with Liu Qing.
Chen Dongcheng could see all the thought and energy he put into it.
But with Liu Qing, Chen Dongcheng is sure that he will not be able to survive for long.
Liu Qing's financing ability is quite impressive.
Chen Dongcheng struggled more than once whether to recruit Liu Qing.
Character: Liu Qing
Skills: Financing expert (58%), business management expert (3%), investment expert (35%), English expert (45%)
With these four skills, even the weakest business management can have an expert level.
Liu Qing has never formally managed the company.
Once she becomes familiar with Didi's operations, her abilities may be greatly improved.
Besides, Cheng Wei is responsible for the company's operations, and what Cheng Wei needs is Liu Qing's financing negotiation skills.
It can be said that with the addition of Liu Qing, Didi will be worry-free in the next ten years.
…
Back at the hotel, everyone had a meal in the cafeteria on the third floor.
This is also the last meal in the Tibetan area. We will decide to return to the capital tomorrow.
Liu Qing has begun writing farewell letters to her Goldman team members, revealing her decision to leave.
Chen Dongcheng didn't know the specific content of the farewell letter.
But when everyone was preparing to return to Beijing the next day, they saw Liu Qing's eyes were red and swollen, as if she had been crying all night.
…
February 20th, flight at 16:10 pm.
After nearly six and a half hours of journey, we finally arrived at the Capital Airport.
Chen Dongcheng looked at his watch, it was already 22:35 in the evening.
"Mr. Cheng, after I have handed over the handover with Goldman Sachs, I will report it immediately."
Now that Liu Qing has made a decision, he will not go back on it easily.
Cheng Wei couldn't hide his joy: "Okay, I will sweep the couch to welcome you."
"Mr. Chen, see you later."
Liu Qing nodded to Chen Dongcheng again, shook hands, and left with her friend in the car that came to pick her up.
"It's not easy, but I finally got it done."
Cheng Wei smiled bitterly, still feeling full of accomplishment.
"Go to a spa?"
Chen Dongcheng got off the plane and felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't ask for too much in the economy class environment.
"Forget it, your sister-in-law must not tear me apart."
Cheng Wei smiled and shook his head: "You also go to the company tomorrow and have another meeting."
"Okay, see you tomorrow then."
Chen Dongcheng and Cheng Wei nodded and got into the car directly.
February in the capital is not very warm, and only the warm air in the car can drive away the chill.
Everyone was very satisfied with this trip.
One is Cheng Wei, a veteran driver who has been to Tibetan areas, and the other is Xie Jingyu, who handles all kinds of chores clearly.
Cheng Wei was a little envious of Chen Dongcheng, but he should ask Xie Jingyu's annual salary.
Cheng Wei suddenly stopped thinking about it. The annual salary of a secretary was higher than that of his CEO.
Stayed one night in the hotel and took a hot shower.
Thinking about the first few days when we went to the Tibetan area, Cheng Wei said that he could not take a shower because it would easily cause altitude sickness, and everyone was in disgrace.
Tibetan areas in winter are the off-season for tourism, but they are even more charming.
Xie Jingyu also helped Chen Dongcheng and the others take many photos. These are precious memories.
The expenses during this period are indeed a bit small, and Chen Dongcheng feels that his biggest expense is to increase his physical strength.
Almost all the weekly consumption rebates are used for physical fitness, and the physical fitness has been changed from 84 to 88 by Chen Dongcheng.
After all, only when you can stand firm can you have output.
[Current accumulated steps: 713502 steps]
This is the result of Chen Dongcheng's hard work for a long time, including the journey to Tibet in the past few days.
I didn’t do much activity in the first few days after entering Tibet and basically stayed in the hotel.
In the next few days, the number of steps increased significantly.
After this trip to Tibetan areas, Chen Dongcheng really liked the feeling of traveling.
Not only can you increase your knowledge, but you can also accumulate steps, which is so comfortable.
