Seeing that Ding Zhen finally understood, Hu Taidou nodded.
"So back to the question, if it were you, how would you solve this problem?"
Ding Zhen thought for a moment and looked at Hu Taidou's calm face. He knew very well that Hu Taidou had actually made a decision in his heart.
This question seems to be just a casual question, but it is an investigation.
Hu Taidou had no children in his life, and he adopted many orphans like himself until he was old.
Therefore, there are not a few people who can call Hu Taidou grandpa.
Because of Hu Taidou's deliberate training, many of them are already able to stand on their own.
Originally, he was the one who stood out among them, but he messed up something last time, which greatly reduced his impression in front of Hu Taidou.
Although he can still stay and work with Hu Taidou now, Ding Zhen can clearly feel that Hu Taidou's attitude towards him is not as good as before.
And this test is a rare opportunity.
Ding Zhen knows Hu Taidou very well, and he does not hesitate to give people opportunities, otherwise he would not be able to stay here, let alone be asked this question.
But Hu Taidou also has a very distinctive character.
What he really needs is not a successor with great talents and strategies, but a successor whose ideas are highly consistent with his, and who can still implement his management philosophy of Huizhou merchants even after a hundred years.
Hu Taidou is too arrogant. In his opinion, his ideas and ideas are the best and most suitable for Huizhou merchants, so he cannot allow others to change them.
No matter how excellent a person is, he cannot be trained by his own hands.
And it just so happened that Ding Zhen was the best in this regard among all the successor candidates trained by Hu Taidou.
So he gets a second chance.
Therefore, facing this test, Ding Zhen's idea of solving the problem must not be how to solve the problem best, but to guess Hu Taidou's attitude. If he guesses correctly, he will win. If he guesses wrong, he may really be doomed.
.
It's a matter of life and death, and Ding Zhen doesn't dare to neglect it.
He took a deep breath and seriously began to put himself in Hu Taidou's position to think about and weigh all the pros and cons.
The time seemed extremely long while waiting.
Ding Zhen didn't say anything, and Hu Taidou didn't urge him.
Just as Ding Zhen understood him, Hu Taidou also understood Ding Zhen very well.
He was sure that Ding Zhen must understand what he meant.
He doesn't mind if the people below figure out what he means, even this is exactly what he wants.
He is already over eighty years old. No matter how energetic he is, the rest of his days must be counted on his fingers. Moreover, in the past two years, he has clearly felt that his energy and physical condition are not as good as before.
Among Hui merchants, as he grew older and his influence declined, factions different from his own began to appear.
With the superposition of various factors, the issue of successor has become a top priority that Hu Taidou must solve immediately.
A full seven or eight minutes passed before Ding Zhen finally spoke.
"In my opinion, I think we should go find Li Jin."
Hearing this, Hu Taidou showed no expression at all and closed his eyes slightly, hiding a hint of disappointment very well.
"Why?"
Faced with Hu Taidou's question, Ding Zhen continued: "The us I am talking about is the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce, not you, grandpa."
"oh?"
Hu Taidou opened his eyes and looked at Ding Zhen with a half-smile.
Ding Zhen bowed slightly to Hu Taidou and said with a smile: "The current situation has been broken into pieces. It is nothing more than Wall Street putting pressure on Li Jin through us."
"Although Huizhou merchants are powerful, at the level of international capital, they are qualified to be cannon fodder, so it is absolutely impossible for them to deliberately deal with Huizhou merchants just to deal with Huizhou merchants."
"What Li Jin did was transfer the pressure from Wall Street to us, allowing us to make this choice."
"When the pressure comes to our level, why can't we pass it on to the next level?"
"Among the Huizhou businessmen, there are also many who participated in the previous economic forum. Since we have agreed to help each other, it is reasonable for them to go to Li Jin now that they are under attack."
Ding Zhen said this, paused slightly, and faced Hu Taidou, who looked more and more satisfied, and continued: "The person I am talking about cannot be you, grandpa, because you are the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce, and the Huizhou Chamber of Commerce is you.
So as long as you speak, no matter what you say, it will be the will of the entire Huizhou Chamber of Commerce."
"But it cannot be the bosses of the companies that have been most severely attacked in the chamber of commerce. To put it bluntly, they do not have enough weight."
"So this candidate, me, is the most suitable."
Hearing this, Hu Taidou laughed heartily.
He pointed at Ding Zhen, laughed and said, "Not bad, really good."
"Since you are right, then you should handle this matter immediately. Once it is done, you will be the next vice president of the Huizhou Merchants Chamber of Commerce."
Upon hearing this, Ding Zhen's expression was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
"Thank you, grandpa."
"You deserve this."
Hu Taidou's smile gradually faded, and his eyes and expression became more serious, "This is just a reward that I let you know in advance. It will be honored only if this matter is done well. Otherwise, even if I forcibly lift you up, you
It has not made any contribution to the Huizhou Merchants Chamber of Commerce itself, and the position of such a vice president is only in name only."
"Only when you truly save their lives, make a big enough contribution, and reach this position will you have power, will people respect you, and will you have appeal and influence."
"I will remember grandpa's teachings." Ding Zhen said respectfully.
"Just do the work."
Hu Taidou closed his eyes contentedly, as if the violent mood swings just now had consumed too much of his energy. He waved his hands lazily and said, "It doesn't matter whether we meet in person or communicate on the phone. The method doesn't matter, and the process doesn't matter either.
, what the Chamber of Commerce and I want to see is the results."
After hearing this, Ding Zhen said no more, bowed slightly, and left the room.
Until the sound of closing the door was heard, Hu Taidou's brows twitched and he revealed a meaningful smile...
After coming out of the manor, Ding Zhen got into the car that had been prepared at the door.
