The three hundred and ninetieth chapters are sophistication
Chen Shi sat in front of his uncle and listened to his lectures. In the past, his uncle liked to give lectures, but Chen Shi never liked to listen because he only thought they were long-winded and nagging.
In fact, people have this kind of mentality. If you know someone who chats with you every day, you will feel bored after listening for a long time. But if one day you suddenly find out that the person was once the kind of soldier king in the novel, then your mentality will not be the same.
Same.
Now the uncle's character in Chen Shi's mind is very impressive. After all, Huangfu's baby's parents would come to see how his uncle was doing during the holidays. This is not a treatment that ordinary old men can get.
"Stone, this ten-mile foreign arena has been a gladiatorial arena since ancient times. The people below prove their existence here with swords and swords every day, and the people above use this? and this." My uncle pointed to his head and mouth and said.
"What did Mr. Du rely on when he was here? It was connections. In fact, if you look through ancient books, you will find that there are not many princes and generals who take the lead in charging into battle every day, and there are not many who have the fighting power of King Chu.
Remember, people rely on wisdom to survive in this world. If we want to fight, we can't match those ferocious beasts, but we can make bows and crossbows, make swords, guns and clubs, make traps, and work together to lay out plans.
, these are mankind's most powerful weapons.
What is a network of people? That is, you are a useful person, a person who is not afraid of others. If you are a person who is scary, then you will not have any network of people. Even princes, generals and ministers cannot cut off the network of people.
What is a scary person in this era? That is people who don’t know how to repay. For example, when you ask someone for help, you don’t know what they mean. Instead, they will ask for help from time to time. These are the people who are scary.
Remember, if you want to stand at a higher place and enjoy the scenery, you must first make people think that you are a reliable person, and then you must be willing to let others take advantage of you.
Because suffering is a blessing. The suffering here does not make you a bad person, but allows you to share some watermelon with your neighbors if you can't finish it yourself. In the future, if they have something, they will also give you some. If you can't eat it all,
Yes, you can just keep away from him, but don't let others see it on the surface. After three times, he will be out of the circle of people and kicked out. If you don't say anything about him, others will say something about him."
Chen Shi seemed to understand and gave it away. Is this a loss or a return of courtesy? Or is it a process of elimination, screening out some people and kicking them out?
"Are you a little confused? Let me explain to you. It is a community of interests. The people you want to get to know must first have interests with you. For example, if you are in the media now, you used to be in newspapers and periodicals.
If you go to make friends with someone who works in newspapers and periodicals, it will be a conflict of interest. You won't be able to see it in the early stage, but there will be big conflicts in the later stage.
But if you make friends with some real estate developers, some clothing dealers, etc., there is a high chance that they will need your help, and you need their connections. For example, if they know a certain celebrity, you can go and interview them yourself.
I refuse you, but if you ask these real estate owners and clothing owners to help find it, it may be easy, because these celebrities need the sponsorship of these bosses.
This is called getting to know people, not making friends everywhere. The most complete structure of a network is in a small circle, controlled within ten people, and then the interests of everyone are bundled again. The best way at this time is to re-form a
New interests emerge, such as joint ventures for a new project, such as marriage, which means getting closer.
Remember, connections without interests are not long-lasting. Some people often say that six people can know the world. It means that if you know six people, you can know anyone in the world. This is a lie to children. If six people
It is difficult for beggars to get to know a business executive. The six people here refer to the same class, and each of them has a certain amount of savings and social status.
For example, for the house I helped you get this time, I didn’t even call the developer boss there myself. I just asked your cousin to help you solve it. Your aunt’s cousin has been engaged in luxury-related industries abroad.
She knows a local owner of a luxury store in Shanghai who specializes in luxury goods. The owner rented six stores in the mall from the developer owner to sell luxury goods. He called the developer owner to help you get it done.
Are you thinking that the boss will give such a big face to a tenant who rents someone else's house? In fact, the developer boss really has to give this face, because the owner of the luxury store can open in that shopping mall because he has improved the overall quality of that shopping mall.
Let me remind you, as the quality of the shopping mall increases, the quality of the community will also increase.
But if six stores suddenly close and go to other shopping malls, it will be difficult for developers to recruit such high-end luxury stores. Without these high-end luxury stores, the mall will just be an ordinary shopping mall. With that
When six stores leave, other brand stores will also leave and go to new shopping malls with those six stores.
Don't think that just because you are the landlord, you can be the best. Sometimes everything has to be looked at both sides, and interests are tied and tied. For example, the owners of the six luxury stores cannot suddenly move out because the rent is cheap.
Moreover, there are a large number of high-end consumption residents in that community, but your cousin and my granddaughter are engaged in luxury goods, and can help this boss get many limited-edition luxury goods, as well as the latest models.
So if he doesn't give your cousin face, then your cousin will give the best luxuries to other families. Do you understand?
Your cousin is also because of you. Your cousin needs the real estate and connections your family has overseas, so she will go out of her way to help you. Shitou is not as realistic as your uncle said. You and your cousin have met a few times in total.
They are half-acquainted relatives, and your grandma and I are brothers and sisters, born from the same mother, and people today have a completely different view of family ties than our generation.
Even many brothers have fallen out because of interests, but as long as there are interests tied up, there will be feelings and communication. This is the world. The so-called network means that you can help me and I can help you. We are all on the same level.
rather than paying unilaterally.”
"Uncle, I probably understand. For example, my mother and my third uncle's family are not related by blood, but my third uncle's family is interested in our family's financial resources, and our family is interested in their uncle.
The energy of the public, Huangfu Baobao's family is interested in your connections, and what you are interested in is that grandma is your sister. If this goes on for a long time, everyone must have business contacts, and finally they will be tied together, and then they will get along for a long time and have a relationship.
, after a kiss, the snowball basically snowballed, and finally it became an indivisible community of interests." Chen Shi said.
My uncle patted Chen Shi and said, "You are wrong about one thing. Your grandma is my sister. I have to take care of this. But your grandpa's overseas connections are what I need because your aunt is abroad, so we also have an interest."
On the chain, although saying it is a bit boring and dilutes the family ties, you have to know, little stone.
If your value is very low, even the people closest to you will become estranged from you. Go and see if the people around you, especially those close to you, have similar conditions or have business.
Communication can be used by everyone, unless your parents or grandparents will really pay for you unilaterally. Brothers and sisters will change after they get married. This is the sophistication of the world.
Understand, these four people are the methods that your uncle told you to make connections. People are wise and the world is wise. If you understand these four words, you will not be stumped by anything.
Another point is that you must pay attention to your own image when going out in the future. You are not just dressing for others to see. Keeping yourself well-groomed is a sign of respect for the people you see and will not embarrass the people you know.
If you meet a classmate who is sloppy, and that classmate meets his colleague and friend, and sees him with you, he will think that your classmate is also a sloppy person, and even think that you are a sloppy classmate.
My classmates are having a bad time."
Chen Shi did not have high requirements for his image before, but when his uncle said this, he really understood. For example, if you pack very clean and go out, your friend packs very slovenly and goes out casually, and then you meet your ex-girlfriend,
When your ex-girlfriend looks at you, she probably feels happy that you are not living a happy life now.
But if your friend cleans up and goes out as well as you do, your ex-girlfriend may see you and your friend and feel that you are living a good life now, and she may feel a little uncomfortable and regret it.
When you go out, you really can't just care about your own comfort. You have to consider not only your image when you go out, but also whether the image of the people around you will be affected by you.
"Here, there are some lists. Remember the stone. The circle does not have to be very high, but it must be useful, and the interests must not conflict and be mutually beneficial. Go and take a look at the list I gave you.
There are all professionals. There is a charity dinner tonight, and the list of people attending the dinner is here, including their information and background.
The dinner is in a private club. Remember, don’t get acquainted with people who conflict with your own interests. For example, if you are in the clothing industry or in the media industry, you can basically give up. You can make friends with colleagues, but not deeply.
, because you have the most direct conflict of interest, but you can get to know the boss of the clothing production machine, and you can get to know the boss of the Internet company, because you seem to be in the same industry, but there is no conflict and there are still interests.
"
"I know, uncle, let me see. I will go to the auction tonight. Do I want to auction it?"
"You are wrong again, Shitou. This charity dinner was reported privately, so you have to understand that the organizer mainly wants to show his kindness and prove his influence, rather than really asking you to spend money there.
Doing charity is to give you a place to get to know each other, do you understand?"
"I understand." Chen Shi is really not good at getting along with each other in this way, but when you reach this level, you must learn how to deal with these people.
"Go to this address. I have prepared an outfit for you." My uncle handed Chen Shi a business card. Chen Shi saw that it was from a tailor shop.
I left my uncle's house and went to a tailor shop in a small street according to the address. When I arrived, I discovered a very embarrassing thing. It turned out that my clothes were the size that Huangfu Baobao gave to my uncle. A suit that looked very
It's perfect, that is, it doesn't have any looseness, and it seems to stick to the body, including the leather shoes.
Everyone has big and small feet, that is, there will be a very small difference in the length of the two feet. Some people have a very large gap, and some people have very small feet. You may not be able to feel it when wearing sports shoes, but it will be obvious when wearing leather shoes.
Feel it.
And these leather shoes are very comfortable. I don’t feel any awkwardness on my feet. I tied the shoelaces and looked in the mirror. They are very good. For formal suits, you need to wear leather shoes with shoelaces. They are generally more prosperous.
For formal occasions, wear a suit and tie. Note that leather shoes are carried, but some are very secretive. Leather shoes that are generally not carried are also called casual leather shoes, which are worn in daily life or not for formal occasions.
, some people will notice this in big occasions, but generally no one will pay attention to this.
There is also a sense of restraint in suits. Why can't you lift your arms when you put on a suit? In fact, this is specially designed to remind you to maintain your image at all times. There is also a shoulder bag, which you can walk with.
It falls off after a few steps, and you have to keep one hand on the bag at all times.
This is to remind you to always pay attention to your bag, and most of the shoulder bags used by men and women are business models. It is to remind you that you have to meet customers. As for those sports crossbody bags and handbags, you don’t need to pay so much attention.
The cuffs and collar of the shirt have specially customized purple-gold buttons. These are used as small accessories for the shirt when taking off the suit. The cuffs and buttons of the suit are also specially customized, which will be used by experienced tailors here in Magic City.
, it is normal for one person to have a mouthful of 1,800.
There is a handkerchief on the left chest of the suit as a decoration. This is rarely used, but sometimes it is better to be prepared. Tonight’s dinner is a private dinner, so you don’t need to wear a tie or bow tie. The difference between a bow tie and a tie is that you basically have to wear a bow tie with a formal dress.
, Suits are also acceptable, but you cannot button up the suit when wearing a suit with a tie, and bow ties are generally used for some very grand occasions, not formal occasions. Most of the grand occasions are high-end dinners or some artistic performances.
The tailor also gave Chen Shi a watch. This watch was Lao Modu's watch, but the detail was that this watch was a limited edition custom-made watch, and it was restricted to places and status. At that time, Modu only offered ten pieces for the gift.
Ten people came together. Chen Shi's piece was given to him by his uncle. It has a silver strap and a white dial. It looks very simple, but you can clearly notice that there is a set of customized digital logos on the dial.
"Thank you, Master Su." Chen Shi said to the tailor shop owner. He looked like he was in his seventies or eighties, right?
"You're welcome. It's my honor to serve you. Welcome Mr. Chen to come again. These are spare clothes. You can just give them to the driver when the time comes." Master Su handed a suit bag to Chen Shi.
After Chen Shi went out, he handed the clothes to the driver assigned to him by his third uncle. The driver took the suit, put it flat on the driver's seat in the back, and then put his hand on the rear door. After Chen Shi got in the car,
He closed the door.
The driver wears white gloves and has a very strong-looking figure of 1.85 meters. It is the standard equipment of many bosses. The driver is also a bodyguard.
As the car started, Chen Shi took a look at the starry sky. Tonight was the moment when he truly entered the circle of Magic City.
