"Hello everyone, I'm Rogers. I may not be as well-known in China as Buffett and Soros, but I know this place better than them. My investment methods are relatively moderate, and I am not as aggressive as the previous two. Everyone You can all relax and don’t think that I came to this conference with any purpose. You can treat me as a little old man.”
Rogers’ speech was transmitted to everyone’s ears through an interpreter. .
“Hahaha.”
“This foreigner is really interesting.”
Everyone in the audience clapped their hands and laughed.
As soon as Rogers opened his mouth, the atmosphere changed from tense to relaxed.
This is also the unique charm of the boss’s speech.
“The young man just now is a good friend of mine. Although I am a foreigner, I think what he said makes sense. If the credit reporting system is not perfect and is forcibly introduced, the consequences will be inevitable It’s unimaginable.”
Chen Xi glanced at the little old man on the stage gratefully, but he didn’t expect Rogers to actually speak for him.
“Dear colleagues, I have seen the rapid development of the e-commerce industry in this land, and I feel very puzzled by this. So far, no place has promoted this business model on a large scale. Let Let's imagine that in this model, the information is highly transparent, and the prices are updated in real time like an exchange in the game world, leaving nothing to hide. At first glance, this seems to be an excellent solution to improve efficiency and promote fair competition. However, just as players in the game rely too much on exchanges for fast transactions, resources are excessively concentrated on price competition, which may eventually lead to the collapse of market order. Chaos." Rogers took games as an example. Although many big players have never played online games, they still understand it.
He continued: "In such an environment, every participant is eager to attract customers by lowering prices. The price war intensifies and profit margins are continuously compressed until a critical point is reached. At this time, what we will face will no longer be Simple market competition is on the verge of collapse of the economic ecology. In order to survive, companies have to sacrifice long-term development strategies and instead pursue short-term sales growth. Innovation capabilities are severely suppressed, and the market is severely affected. The vitality is gradually fading. In contrast, I prefer to miss and advocate a more traditional and wise way of market trading, like the ancient model of using coins to set up stalls. This model encourages innovation and values it. Quality and service return the market to the essence of value creation and sharing. It requires companies to not only compete on price..."
The situation Rogers gave as an example is like an online game. Why do many online games today only take a few months, or even a few weeks, from opening to closing?
It is not only due to problems such as krypton gold, but the most important thing is the collapse of the in-game market. You know, a fast pace will accelerate the collapse of a system. The use of exchanges in games is similar to current e-commerce. However, the most fatal thing about e-commerce is that they can view historical prices and usual transaction prices, which intensifies the price war.
When the market in the game collapses and trading can no longer continue, someone will give up. After all, there are still many studios that come to make money.
This is one of the reasons why a large number of domestic games have become ghost servers soon after they were released, and that is because they ignore the economic system.
Development centered on cheap goods, stimulating consumption, and fast transactions is destroying the entire market. In a short period of time, the market economy is rising, but over time it begins to weaken rapidly.
Everyone is competing for cheap prices, so productivity must be improved, but the market is so big that there is simply no end to consumption. This has led to more and more things. It costs millions to start a factory production line. There are so many factories across the country, and the results can be imagined.
“In terms of development level, we in the West have developed earlier and are more developed. But we have not advocated e-commerce in our country. It is not that our technology is not up to standard, but that we do not need this kind of way to stimulate the economy, because if this model runs for a long time, the effects may be worse. Next, I will talk about other aspects. Most countries will restrict foreign investment, which is harmful to domestic enterprises and enterprises. I can understand this as a kind of economic protection measure. Due to the impact of the financial crisis, the economies of many Western countries have not yet recovered, so they have relaxed their policies and begun to open their doors to investors from other countries. One of the purposes of this is to invest here. Of course, I will also help some people invest abroad. I will set up a..." Rogers began to advertise his business.
He also pointed out the problems and limitations in our securities market. This little old man is still very smart. He has already learned from Wang Qiansui that he should not say anything that will make people hate him. Therefore, in his words, he tried to avoid some content that would infringe on the interests of certain departments.
“It turns out that this guy came to the meeting with ideas.” Zhao Lingshan suddenly realized.
"If he wants to make money in another country, he must make full use of his popularity and speak on stage. It is indeed a good way to do things after getting approval from others." Chen Xi nodded slightly. He thought there was nothing wrong with Rogers' method.
Then he turned to look at Feng Jialun and said, "Brother Feng, the business Rogers wants to engage in conflicts with you. Aren't you afraid of competition?"
"What are you afraid of? Why do you want to do it?" Competition? We can definitely cooperate," Feng Jialun said with a smile.
“It seems that you have just concluded a business deal.”
“Business talks require an opportunity. It’s not about going to someone’s company and blah blah blah blah blah. We can negotiate..." Feng Jialun started the education mode again, he really wanted to cultivate this young man.
Chen Xi agreed with what he said. Some people went to the customer's side and talked for hours, even talking nonsense, but in the end the business was still not concluded. Some people have concluded business after playing ball with clients. The difference between the two lies in the method and opportunity.
What we talk about is often not just business, but human relationships.
“What do you think about foreign investors coming to our country to grab the market and us going abroad to grab the market?” Feng Jialun suddenly asked.
"It depends on the specific situation. The nature of the war is very important. If the war of aggression cannot be won quickly, it will basically be dragged into the quagmire of war. It cannot win or escape. In the end, it is negotiation... ...You will understand after looking at Soros's affairs in HK."
"Oh, I didn't expect you to be a strategist, so what if you take the slow erosion route?" Feng Jialun looked at Chen Xi with a look. It’s different.
"Then you have to build a good relationship with the other party and use the slogan of peaceful coexistence and harmonious development... But after all, you are doing business in someone else's place. If the other party doesn't talk about fair competition and just shuts down the door, then you have nothing to do. ..."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
"It's interesting. It's better to invest abroad than to invest domestically!"
"We are fighting to death here, so it is better to conquer the markets of other countries."
Taiwan After hearing Rogers' words, the boss's eyes lit up.
Especially Feng Yun, he has long wanted to enter the overseas market, and Linxi beside him is the tool he found to expand overseas.
It’s just that Feng Yun doesn’t like to cooperate with other bosses. He values absolute control, which has led to conflicts with many corporate bosses in China.
You can find a ghost guy who is similar to Rogers to cooperate.
Yes, I am going to the West for a walk.
Feng Yun had already had a new idea at this time. He silently glanced at Linxi next to him from the corner of his eyes, but the other party still didn't know.
At this moment, the conference is rapidly transmitting information through live broadcasts on television and the Internet.
Xinlu City.
“Damn it, Brother Xi is on TV.”
“Really, I’d say it’s right to follow Brother Xi. Look at him guiding the country in front of so many big bosses. It’s really majestic.”
“When Brother Xi becomes rich in the future, we will be the founding fathers.”
Several of Chen Xi's friends were relaxing in the bathhouse, watching the news on TV, and they were all excited.
In a hotel. Xu Yun was lying on a big bed, watching the live broadcast on TV, and eating a banana leisurely.
She picked up her mobile phone and dialed a number and said: "Haha, I have always been very good at judging men. This Chen Xi really has an unlimited future. Invest in those idiots." With the resources recovered, I want to start betting..."
A financial newspaper in Xinlu.
"Zhang Xuan, prepare for today's content. The title is: A mysterious young man talked about the direction of reform at a financial conference, putting Feng Yun in a dilemma... Make the photo bigger."
"Yes. , I understand." Zhang Xuan took the materials handed by the president and replied casually.
She is about to get married to Chen Yifeng, and she no longer wants to stay in this shabby newspaper office.
Holy shit, isn’t this that kid... Why is he on the news?
Zhang Xuan, who picked up the materials, clenched her fists when she saw the photo above.
No, the better this boy is, the more he will be liked by Chen Yifeng. This will be my biggest threat in the future, the child I will give birth to...
Zhang Xuan is determined to eradicate Chen Xi.
Huajing, headquarters of the Overseas Returnees Association.
“Both the president and the vice president seemed to have attended the financial conference, but why did I only see the vice president come on stage to speak? Where is the president?” A good-looking girl tilted her head and asked. She is Chen Xi’s biggest fan. One of the fans.
"The president doesn't like to be in the limelight. You must know that the people present at the conference are all big guys. Do you think it is appropriate for us young people to speak on stage?" Another girl spoke up to defend Linxi.
Now in the association, Chen Xi, Linxi, and Xu Yun all have support.
Of course, most of the people who support Xu Yun are boys. As the saying goes, opposites attract and same-sex repels.
"The vice-president went up to speak. Why didn't he mention that he was from the Returned Association? Did he think that this association would disgrace him?" Someone raised a soul question and tried to stir up trouble.
"In such a big financial meeting, what if I talk too much and bring trouble to the association? The vice president must not say anything for the good of the association."
"That's okay. It’s better not to go up and say it, then there won’t be any trouble.”
"Why are you so stubborn?"
"Yesterday the vice president said in the group that he would cooperate with the Tianya Forum. As far as I know, the president didn't know about this at all. It was entirely his own initiative. ."
"How do you know this news? I don't know. It was obviously you who made it up. Cooperation, the vice-president doesn’t know yet!”
“Don’t you just think that the vice-president is handsome, you idiot?”
“Nonsense, I am seeking truth from facts. , your motive for trying to provoke people within the association seems to me to be an ulterior motive. Are you an undercover sent by another association?”
"That makes sense. Isn't there a Dahua Returnees Association? I heard that recently, some places in China have set up overseas returnee associations, but the scale is relatively small. They must be jealous of the scale of our association..."
"You...you are talking nonsense. Anyway, I support the president. Only President Lin can lead the association to the top. We who join the association Isn't the purpose just to get more resources..."
"How about a bigger picture and more resources? I'm not a poor international student like you. My family is the richest man in the area, so I don't have any shortage. What resources? I joined the association because I have a greater ideal, do you understand..."
Differences arose within the Returned Association for a while.
The quarrel between these girls has been secretly recorded and spread quickly in the group. Those who support Chen Xi are generally international students from well-off families and have their own ideals. Most of those who support Linxi are ordinary international students with average financial conditions. They are thinking about their future after graduation.
However, there are exceptions. Some people are also in good condition, but they have the same idea as Linxi and use the Returned Association as a tool to make money for themselves.
Actually, these are not big problems. Everyone’s family is different and it is normal for them to have different ideas.
However, the reason why the Overseas Returnees Association can be legally recognized is because the higher authorities require them to take the right path.
If Linxi’s development path is followed, what is the difference between this association and other organizations?
Is it still necessary to exist?
Not many people have thought about this issue at all.
"I'm so angry. These guys must have been instigated by others to target the vice president everywhere." Half an hour later, the girl who had just spoken for Chen Xi was making coffee in the tea room and mouthing Still complaining angrily.
"Wow, I didn't expect you to be so supportive of the vice-president. Do you want to be his girlfriend? Why don't you confess your love in person?" the girl next to her who has a good relationship with her scoffed. laughed.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I just admire the vice-president. Besides, if you like someone, why should you be together? As long as you can look at him from a distance and support him silently from behind... …”
“You have a disease that needs to be cured, or you are a nymphomaniac.”
"Go to hell, you dare to make fun of me. There are more and more people in this association now. In the past, you had to be reviewed and invited to enter. Now the restrictions have been relaxed, and any random person can enter the Overseas Returned Association. If this continues, In the future, management will become a problem. When there are more people, there will be more ideas. . ”
“Yes, we all lived in harmony before, but now there are cliques in the association privately. Hey, I thought that international students were a big family at first, but now it seems that they are not. Not as beautiful as I imagined.”
“ I still think the vice-president’s idea is correct. The Overseas Returnees Association cannot attract people to join through benefits, otherwise it will be just like the Chamber of Commerce. We should be positive and carry forward the spirit of mutual help and building the motherland.”
< br>"You are just too idealistic, everyone is There are selfish reasons. We are students now, and what we think is not realistic. Many people in the association have graduated and are experienced in society. What they want is money and power..."< br>
The two girls sighed and worried about the future development of the association.
What they don't know is that the seeds of the future crisis of the Returned Returned Association have actually been planted since its establishment. (End of this chapter)
