Chapter 60 The World's No. 1 CEO

Xiao Yanran is the child of Professor Yang in the department. This child is a child prodigy. He can recite the sixty-four chapters of Laozi at the age of three, and can recite the Analects of Confucius, the Great Learning, the Doctrine of the Mean, and Tang poetry and Song lyrics at the age of five.

The key is that this child is eccentric and does not recognize his child.

"Uncle, what are we doing?" Xiao Yanran held the watermelon and was able to chew it vigorously.

"Take you to see a grandpa," Qin Dong smiled and scratched her nose, "a foreign grandpa."

"Well, I can speak English..." Xiao Yanran said a few simple English, but Qin Dong was so happy. This child was simply a natural choice. In his opinion, there was no more suitable than her.

"Brother, where did the foreign grandfather come from?" Qin Nan gnawed the watermelon, and Du Xiaoshu couldn't help but glance at her. From childhood to adulthood, the speed of eating melons was always the fastest. He just ate two pieces, and Qin Nan gnawed four pieces. It seems that female college students are not vague when eating watermelons.

However, this time, no matter how fast you eat, they are all people eating melons.

"Oh, American grandfather, go back and tell your Professor Yang that I will visit you in the evening and talk to him about this matter." Qin Dong knew what the writer thought, his daughter was a little cotton jacket and a treasure.

...

Two days later, the streets of Shanghai were still shrouded in drizzle.

The car stopped in front of the traffic light, and hundreds of citizens wearing the same style of raincoat (bicycle-specific raincoat) were either slapped on the bicycle or held the bicycle, waiting for the green light to light up.

On the roadside, a newly opened beauty salon is officially open. From a distance, there are private restaurants, private boutiques, private bars... everywhere. Private businesses in China are emerging, and Shanghai is the first place where China's economic structure changes.

In this open, making money and passionate 1990s, at this time, studying Western business courses in her spare time is a new trend in Shanghai!

To learn such a course, you need to work in a foreign company. The new atmosphere that China showed in 1992 can also be seen from the actions of foreign-funded enterprises:

Investments of Motorola, DuPont and other companies that were once stranded have recovered, and manufacturers such as Boeing and HP are launching large-scale sales in all directions...

Microsoft established its first representative office in Beijing, China this year. Since then, Microsoft has successively established Microsoft China Research and Development Center, Microsoft Global Technical Support Center, Microsoft Research Institute and other institutions in China.

And this summer, during this rainy season, General Electric Company CYO, Jack Welch, came to China. He is a legend in the American business world and was also the first heavyweight multinational company to come to China after Grandpa Deng went south to inspect and speak.

"Don't read Mou Chi's books anymore, you can pay attention to this Welch." In the car, Qin Dong showed off the style of a good Chinese brother.

Welch is a legend in the American business world. He is also known as the "world's number one CEO", "century manager", and "the most successful and greatest entrepreneur in contemporary America."

During his 20 years as he was in charge of the American industrial giant General Electric, the company has grown from a manufacturer of household appliances and light bulbs to a multinational giant with both industrial and financial services.

However, his arrival in 1992 did not cause much response among mainland Chinese entrepreneurs, nor even caused a few waves. However, his reputation, in Shanghai, allowed Qin Dong to find a place to use.

"Stop." Qin Dong said suddenly.

Qin Nan immediately looked out the window. In the drizzle, the flower-selling grandma was still hesitating in the rain.

"Brother, I'll go." Qin Nan opened the car door and rushed into the rain, "Grandma, I want all your gardenia."

The grandma was stunned, and a look of gratitude immediately appeared on her face. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, but the gardenias were too late to sell, so she couldn't go home.

"Nannan, thank you, these flowers will bring you good luck." The grandma smiled kindly. She patted Qin Nan's hand gently and handed the basket to Qin Nan, "Good luck!"

The fragrance of gardenias quickly spread in the carriage. Qin Nan smiled and brought the gardenia garland to Xiao Yanran's hand, and picked up another string, "Brother, I'll give it to you."

Qin Dong smiled and reached out, Gao Hu also reached out as he drove...

The Bund is being renovated at this time, but there are still many public security guards on duty in front of the customs building. At this time, foreign entrepreneurs on the other side of the shore still enjoy this special protection and treatment when they visit China.

"Brother, I understand," Qin Nan looked back. Zhao Mudan and the others were sitting in a taxi behind. "You want this old American man to drink our beer," she looked at the police on duty. "We can't get close, you want Xiao Yanran..."

In the adult world, anything can be regarded as a threat, but the exception is to a cute child, just like the famous photo, a child standing on the Great Wall and holding a can of Coca-Cola, Qin Dong didn't believe it was a selfie, it must be a posing.

"Xiao Yanran," Qin Dong handed her a can of beer, "I saw a few foreign grandpas, you can invite them to drink beer, Chinese beer."

...

Today's visit to the Bund is a planned itinerary. General Electric Chairman and Ceo Jack Welch, Vice Chairman Paul Freska and a number of company core executives are very curious about the city.

Previously, Grandpa Deng had appeared on the cover of Time magazine seven times and conducted a "southern tour" this year. So these curious foreign businessmen wanted to see with their own eyes what the well-known "chief designer of China's reform and opening up" brought to China.

At this time, the US economy was in a downturn on the eve of Clinton's office. Compared with this, China is preparing to use the "spring breeze" to achieve its ambitions, not only increasing investment in real estate, automobiles, steel, household appliances and other fields, but also making progress in joining the WTO negotiations.

In Shanghai, as the "leader of urban opening along the Yangtze River", the development of Pudong New Area, which has received support from the central government, is entering a specific planning stage, including Shanghai-Paris International Bank, Shanghai Haolaixi Food Co., Ltd., Shanghai Edward Shipbuilding and other Sino-foreign joint ventures.

"...The first batch of 48 large and medium-sized commercial enterprises in the city have officially launched the pilot reform of "six independent" (self-operating activities, commodity pricing, labor employment, wage distribution, investment and development, and institutional settings). Our country's first national futures market - Shanghai Metal Trading Market, and the first international futures commodity trading center - Shanghai Runfeng Commodity Futures Co., Ltd., have also been established..."

The Shanghai leaders who were receiving enthusiastically recommended the city.

In addition to surprise, Welch obviously saw the prospects for China's development. He smiled and replied in English, "Our 12 commercial departments of General Electric, I promise, will come to Shanghai to find opportunities to develop business and invest in China... The company must invest at least $1 billion in China."

oh.

The leaders of Shanghai looked at each other and said that this number was very impressive at this time.

"Hello."

Just as they walked out of the customs building, a little girl came over with a smile and greeted in English.

Jack Welch immediately laughed, and a child greeted him in English, which surprised him.

"Grandpa, I'll give it to you," Xiao Yanran raised the beer in her hand and a bouquet of gardenia garlands, "They will bring you good luck."

Xiao Yanran said this sentence in Chinese, and the translation was immediately translated in a low voice.

good luck?
