What Li Mubai didn't expect was that when he flew back to Xiangjiang, the Guo family actually arranged for Guo Daheng's car to pick him up. Although it was Yuan Xi and the little girl A Yin who picked him up, Li Mubai was still quite surprised.
Li Mubai did not come back empty-handed. When he was in Hollywood, he brought back an authentic Disney bear for the little girl. This little bear was really quite big, almost as tall as the little girl when placed on the ground.
When she saw her favorite stuffed bear, the little girl hugged her tightly and gave Li Mubai a big kiss. Even Yuan Xi complained that Li Mubai was a little too doting on A Yin. But after A Yin heard this,
He pouted his lips and expressed strong protest.
What made Yuan Xi speechless the most was that A Yin's reason for protesting was that her mother did not give her a brother. Now that she finally has a brother, her mother still wants to deprive her of her rights.
Although he was protesting strongly, his cute look made Li Mubai kiss him hard on his pink face.
But the little girl also protested, saying that Li Mubai's stubble had pricked her, which made the group laugh.
Although Guo Tycoon did not personally greet Li Mubai at the door this time, he did not entertain this guy who had returned with great honor in the living room.
After passing through the garden in the courtyard, I turned a corner and saw a moon gate. Looking from a distance, I saw a pavilion inside. On both sides of the pavilion were two wicker chairs, one and a stone table.
There are tea sets on it. There is a charcoal stove next to it. Next to the pavilion is a Ming-style fence, and below are the steep rocks, leading directly to the sea. Sitting here, you can overlook the sea and listen to the sound of the tide. It is really
A rare place.
Canglang Pavilion!
This place is definitely a forbidden area for the Guo family. Except for the old man, even the children must get the old man’s approval if they want to enter. Only when the old man is not at home, the children dare to sit here secretly for a while, even if
In this way, a few people need to be protected from the wind to avoid being caught by the old man. What's more, when the Hong Kong Governor came here, he shamelessly brought it up after visiting several times and got the old man's invitation.
But today, the old man took Li Mubai's hand and walked straight into the Canglang Pavilion. Even though Yuan Xi was mentally prepared, she still felt very sad when she saw her father-in-law and Li Mubai walking into the Canglang Pavilion hand in hand.
Not peaceful.
"To be honest, I think you are more like an adult most of the time." The old man personally showed what Kung Fu tea is, poured a cup of tea for Li Mubai, and leaned on the wicker chair and said frankly: "You are here
Yuan Xi's performance in New York has already learned from me. I really can't understand how a young man who has just passed his prime can be so calm and have such a calm mind. Even if I, an old guy, are facing such
Even with fluctuations, you may not be able to control your own mentality."
"Old man, you're flattering me too much. I'm so calm. I'm trying to catch a duck. Who wants me to be greedy?" Li Mubai can't say that he still has a memory in his mind that can know the direction of future development.
, trends. Big events happening in the world!
"What you said is against your will!" Guo Daheng took a sip of tea and said: "Although I am very confused, the old man has not broken the habit of asking questions. I remember the ancients once said that some people learn and learn.
Some people know it from birth. I think you, the boy, belong to the latter group. Even if not, everyone has their own secret, which is not a strange thing. "
When Li Mubai listened to Guo Daheng's words, a slight smile appeared on his lips. He would not share this secret with anyone, but it seemed that the old man did not come to find him because he wanted to find out his secret.
There must be other ideas. And Li Mubai was able to keep his composure. Guo Daheng didn't say it, and Li Mubai didn't mention it either.
Guo Daheng is a Tai Chi promoter who has learned from Li Mubai. This little guy is basically a little fox. He is more calm than his own son. He believes that as long as he doesn't speak, Li Mubai will never take the initiative to bring up the topic.
Going up.
"How much do you know about the Guo family, and what do you think of the future development?" Guo Tycoon stopped beating around the bush and directly asked a question that left Li Mubai speechless.
This seems to be an internal matter within the Guo family. At some point, it won’t be his turn as an outsider to point fingers. 1
But looking at Guo Tycoon's expression, the old man didn't seem to be joking.
After pondering for a moment, Li Mubai said slowly: "Old man, to tell you the truth, I really don't know much about the Guo family. However, I do have a little immature view on shipping."
When Li Mubai said this sentence, he had considered it repeatedly. Although Li Mubai had never thought that Guo Daheng would ask him such a question before, he still saw a clue in the old man's words. Whether it was for himself
Whether it was future plans or the current situation, Li Mubai quickly made a decision.
He took a sip of tea and said calmly: "As far as I know, whether it is Xiangjiang or Southeast Asia, most of them now use single-hull cargo ships."
Guo Daheng nodded and said that what Li Mubai said was true. This is also known to everyone. However, if Li Mubai mentioned it seriously, it means that Li Mubai is not talking nonsense here, but has his own ideas in this regard.
.
And what he said to Li Mubai was definitely not a spur of the moment. Before Li Mubai came back, Guo Tycoon had already thought about it carefully. Although the Guo family has a very glamorous side and great influence in Hong Kong shipping.
However, the Guo family is not the only shipping company in Xiangjiang. There is also the Bao family, which is known as the shipping king. Whether in Xiangjiang or in Southeast Asia, its influence is only as great as that of the Guo family.
More importantly, the Guo family's shipping has now reached a bottleneck. If this bottleneck cannot be broken, the Guo family's development may have to stand still. In this era of economic development, standing still is
It means that it will be eliminated.
Li Mubai's appearance and performance gave Guo Daheng a glimmer of hope. Li Mubai was not only young, but also unique and eclectic.
"Although the old man is not the prime minister, he still knows what it means to innovate and keep up with the times." Seeing the hesitation on Li Mubai's face, Guo Daheng also realized that his question was a bit abrupt.
But he really didn't take Li Mubai's age as a thing, but put Li Mubai on an equal footing with him.
"The boy just said a few nonsense. If what he said is wrong, the old man must not take it to heart." Li Mubai's Guo Tycoon picked up the bag under his eye. After lighting it for the old man, he also lit a cigarette.
.Although the tycoon gave him an equal status, Li Mubai could still distinguish between elder and younger, and he would not show off in front of this old man.
"Judging from the current situation, there is no problem with single-hull freighters. But if you think about it in the future, as the economy continues to develop and grow, single-hull freighters seem to have shortcomings in transportation."
Li Mubai analyzed very methodically: "Although the cost of double-hulled freighters seems to have increased a little, the safety is unmatched by single-hulled freighters. Especially for oil tankers, I don't need to say the importance of safety.
, I think the old man knows better than me."
"You mean not only to replace the single-hulled ones with double-hulled ones, but also to increase the number of oil tankers?" The old man immediately heard the implication in Li Mubai's words.
"Haha..." Li Mubai did not answer the old man's question directly, but laughed dryly. This is a matter of the direction and strategy of his development, and I am afraid it is not his turn to make irresponsible remarks.
Having said these words today, I already feel a little ignorant of the importance. In front of the old senior, there is no place for Li Mubai to point fingers.
Guo Daheng saw Li Mubai's worries. He waved his hand and said boldly: "Speak confidently and boldly. Telling only half of it is not your proper style as Li Mubai!"
"Now that the old man has said it to this point, let me boldly say a few words." Li Mubai was actually waiting for this sentence. Then, he said: "We can replace it step by step and customize a batch of double-hull oil tankers first.
, with the war in the Middle East, I think there will be bigger wars in the future. Now it is just an appetizer, and crude oil will also be affected by the war. Whether in the Middle East or Southeast Asia, for
There will be a lot of trading of crude oil."
Li Mubai's words caused Guo Daheng to think deeply. It must be said that Li Mubai's words were reasonable and well-founded, and Guo Daheng also recognized Li Mubai's analysis in his heart. But he thought more, and Li Mubai said something like this
It would definitely not be an unprovoked suggestion. It would be absolutely impossible for this guy to have no idea at all. He was analyzing what Li Mubai was planning, and the pros and cons to the Guo family.
After finishing smoking a cigarette, Li Mubai saw that Guo Daheng was still silent, so he stood up and said, "Sir, I haven't gone back to the company yet. I will come to visit you at home another day when I have time."
Although Li Mubai has an idea, the idea is really not that strong.
"Little friend Li, don't leave yet." When Guo Daheng saw Li Mubai's eyes, there was no hint of complaint or cunning. He knew that he was acting like a villain. It was really embarrassing to face a man in his early twenties.
The young man was still hesitant. It was true that the longer he stayed in the world, the less courageous he became. Before Li Mubai could speak, Guo Daheng made a suggestion that made Li Mubai's heart move.
