Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

...

Chapter 179 The symposium was full of nonsense!

It's gothic heavy metal with a touch of medieval style.

The addition of bel canto to the singing technique elevates the flavor of the song.

Of course, this song is very demanding on the lungs, but fortunately the high range is not too wide, otherwise Zou Wenjuan would not have been able to reach it.

Fortunately, this girl has formal training and a solid foundation in bel canto and traditional singing.

Before long, I spent the whole afternoon working on the sheet music with Grandpa Li.

The Shangguzhuang electronics factory was bustling with people coming and going, which made life difficult for Wang Kai and Secretary Huang of the town.

The tape manufacturing plant is no longer open to the public.

There are no suitable employers, what's the point of looking for a job!

Many organizations were not a good fit for the program and refused entry, which caused dissatisfaction among many people. Why can't we visit if it's not a good fit? We're here to learn from their experience, not to learn their production methods.

Let that person come out and hold a seminar to tell us how to export, how to negotiate with foreigners, and how to get orders.

These are all learning skills; our products also need to be exported and we need to earn foreign exchange.

The reasons are compelling, but that's not the real issue!

There were quite a few complaints and grievances. Leaders from the Municipal Government Office also came, and it was Director Jiang again.

He must have some knowledge of electronics factories.

Then let's talk to the factory. If we can't find Xing Baohua, let Secretary Huang represent them.

How about we hold a temporary meeting?

The meeting will be easy to hold! But who's going to speak? The main person in charge has all run away; besides that guy, nobody else knows how to speak!

Let's go find it and see what happens.

Several phone calls were made, but no one knew where Xing Baohua was. Secretary Huang knew where he was, but not his exact location.

Those who know his exact location don't know where he went.

In short, there was a lack of communication and an inability to manage the situation effectively.

The workshop continued with its production as usual, and no one was allowed to stop unless Xing Baohua said to. Anyone who stopped would not only have their wages deducted, but would be fired.

That evening, Xing Baohua sneaked back to the factory, where Secretary Huang and Wang Kai were waiting for him.

Seeing this guy come back, I was a little excited and under too much pressure. This guy can't just keep hiding! He has to take some responsibility.

"Hold a symposium to share experiences?" Xing Baohua reluctantly agreed after hearing Wang Kai's suggestion from the municipal government office.

Gathering everyone together for a meeting may take up his personal time, but it won't affect the factory's operation.

After consultation, Xing Baohua decided to hold a three-day symposium in the district auditorium.

He speaks for two hours every morning.

Even if those people are still dissatisfied, that's all. Their demands have been met, so what more do they want?

It's only because Xing Baohua doesn't have anyone else on his hands that he could have had Secretary Huang lead the team to win back the money.

On the first day of the meeting, Wang Kai was carrying a notebook and pen, as if he were attending a seminar and taking notes on the key points of the meeting.

Seeing that Xing Baohua had come empty-handed and had nothing with him, they asked curiously.

Where is your speech?

“Why would I need that? I’m used to giving speeches without notes. Besides, wouldn’t writing a speech take up too much time?” Xing Baohua said.

"Don't you have a secretary? Have her write one for you! At least it should have some key points or something," Secretary Wang said.

“A secretary is meant to do things; she’s not good at writing articles,” Xing Baohua said with a smile.

“What’s the difference between writing and doing other things? Writing is still work! Let me tell you, a secretary who can’t write isn’t a good secretary,” Wang Kai said seriously to Xing Baohua.

Seeing that Xing Baohua didn't seem to care about his words, Wang Kai sighed softly, feeling that Xing Baohua was still too young!

Giving a speech was easy for Xing Baohua.

If someone can't even talk nonsense, huh? If someone can't even talk nonsense properly, what are they talking about? They should just go home and farm!

Especially these kinds of speeches where the speaker is just rambling on and on; they have to be treated as nonsense.

Of course, one can't just make things up; one has to deceive, and add a bit of one's own twisted logic.

Each venue had a stage, and Xing Baohua was in a prominent position.

As is typical for conferences, there are announcers and hosts. After introducing a group of leaders and important figures, they introduced Xing Baohua, saying: "A young, outstanding, and excellent entrepreneur."

This is the title that Xing Baohua can currently hold in high regard.

The audience applauded enthusiastically. Xing Baohua stood up, bowed slightly, and gestured for everyone to be quiet.

He tapped the microphone, and the sound system in the venue thumped back and forth.

"Hello everyone, my name is Xing Baohua." Xing Baohua stood up and gave an opening speech.

“Many people come to Shangguzhuang Electronics Factory wanting to learn advanced experience. But for me, experience can be learned on my own. I developed the factory through self-taught experience.”

"So some people might ask, how did you teach yourself?"

"This story begins with an encounter I had with a foreigner who came to the city's machinery factory for repairs. Of course, there's a prerequisite: have you taught yourself a foreign language? If you don't know a foreign language, please go back and study it carefully, because this is a very important lesson."

"Why? You don't even speak a foreign language, how are you going to communicate with people? Even if a foreigner is interested in your product, how are you going to introduce it?"

"Some people say, why not just hire a translator?"

"Let me tell you, no! It's because of a lack of communication, and we've gone a bit off-topic. What I'm going to talk about next is that when I chat with foreigners, we talk about hobbies and interests. Plus, I graduated from an electronics technical school and have a strong interest in electronics. When we talk about music, I mention that I assembled a stereo system myself, and we can listen to it together. That's what friendship is all about. Foreign languages ​​are all about experience, and I taught myself all of that. What about you guys?"

"If you want to know my export experience, I tell foreigners, 'Stop working and help me sell stereos! Each one costs 30,000 US dollars, so ten would be 300,000.' That guy actually believed me, bought one first, then ten, and came back a few days ago with an order for forty. That's my export experience. If you don't speak a foreign language, can't chat with foreigners like friends, and act all businesslike, who'll pay attention to you!"
