Huo Sheng was stunned: "Really...really...is it really possible? I can really study abroad?"
"Yes, you can. Believe in yourself. The country needs talents now, but the college entrance examination is not necessarily the only way out. You can go out to study, and the factory will pay for the expenses. After you finish your studies, come back and work hard for the factory."
"Sister-in-law, you are really my second parent. No one has ever thought of letting me study again! I... I really want to learn new knowledge."
"Be prepared. Wait for the previous batch of people to come back, and you will be the next batch to leave. Huo Qing and Huo Yun are not good students, so they will stay in the factory to work."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I...I will definitely study hard!"
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best. And one more thing, if you don't come back after completing your studies, I will chase you abroad and beat you up if you forget your country and your roots."
"How is that possible? Wherever my sister-in-law is, I will be there. I will work for her from now on without any complaints."
After arranging Huo Sheng, Xiangnan was more interested in promoting Huo Yun and Li You. They were the most promising ones. They were young, smart, and knew how to adapt. Moreover, both of them had no idea about love, so it was the best time for them to pursue their careers.
Xiangnan asked them to serve as sales directors of the factory, one in charge of air conditioners and the other in charge of fans. Xiangnan had almost obtained all the orders for air conditioners. Li You didn't have much business to get, but he was responsible for all the handovers and contact with customers.
Li You was under great pressure: "Sister, can I do it? Those are all big customers. Can I chat with them? There are so many foreign customers. I have trouble communicating."
"If you have communication problems, learn. Starting today, you have to learn a foreign language. I don't expect you to be proficient, but you should be able to speak basic, everyday language in a way that makes people feel at home. You'll have an interpreter with you in formal situations."
"Okay, I'll learn it. It's just a foreign language. I don't believe I can't learn it."
"Just learn from the translator. I've hired two translators to come to the factory. Huo Yun also needs to learn. Our factory's products will be sold abroad, so both of you need to learn."
"Sister-in-law, I will learn. Although I don't like going to school, I still like to learn things that are useful for work."
"I've also told Huo Yun that you two will be learning from the translator starting today. This isn't just a small-time operation like we did in An County. Every time you talk to a client, you might be affecting hundreds of thousands of dollars in business. You have to take this seriously."
Li You and Huo Yun both studied very hard. They knew that Xiang Nan was giving them a chance. If she didn't give them a chance, she could just hire someone who already knew foreign languages instead of training them.
After half a year, both of them could communicate with foreigners in English in daily life. After two years, both of them could communicate with foreigners fluently in foreign languages and no longer had to be stage fright when traveling abroad.
After returning from studying abroad, Huo Sheng participated in air-conditioning design and successfully developed the first domestically produced wall-mounted small air conditioner.
The factory to the south is getting bigger and bigger, and the factory buildings and production lines are constantly expanding, from fans to air conditioners to televisions and refrigerators, and then to juicers and kettles.
Later, it produced the first color TV and developed into Nanfeng Group, which is also a leading company in Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
Nanfeng Group’s products are sold very cheaply in China, much cheaper than imported products from abroad, but they are much more expensive when sold abroad than in China. Xiangnan wants to make money abroad.
Many of her products are at the forefront of the times, and some have already been sold before they have even begun development abroad.
Having seized many opportunities, Nanfeng Group has become an indispensable industry for the Huo family.
Huo Sheng has been studying abroad. After completing his studies, he came back to participate in research and development, and then continued to study abroad. Xiangnan sent him to many countries, and he also married a wife abroad. Although she is a foreign wife, she follows him around the world without any complaints.
Li You finally caught the eye of a Hong Kong tycoon, but he disliked the tycoon's daughter for being too spoiled and willful, and refused to marry into his family.
Xiangnan just let him do as he pleased. Li You has worked very hard in the past few years and is definitely a future first generation rich man. Although marrying into a family with a son-in-law can save him ten years of hard work, he is still young. It would be more fulfilling for him to work hard for another ten years and become a first generation rich man.
Seeing that Li You had made so much money, his parents did not urge him to get married. If he had money, why would he be afraid of not having a wife?
Grandma Li had long forgotten about asking him to settle down before doing business. She looked around at home but couldn't find a girl who was worthy of Li You.
It’s not that she thinks the girl is poor, but that she has little knowledge. Grandma Li came to Shenzhen to take care of Li You because she saw how hard her grandson studied. The girl who used to sleep in class can now study until one or two o’clock in the morning.
An uneducated girl is not worthy of her hardworking grandson.
These days the country is vigorously developing education, and girls who are uneducated are just lazy.
Huo Qing got married and the whole family moved to Shenzhen. The child was already able to run.
Huo Qing was not as smart as Li You and Huo Yun. Xiangnan gave him a workshop management position, and he did a good job.
Huo Yun bought all the cars he wanted most, and he bought all kinds of them. Every day he didn't think about getting married, but about buying a good car.
Later, Xiangnan set up a car factory and put him in charge. Huo Yun worked very hard. He learned Xiangnan's management philosophy, vigorously cultivated talents, let them research and produce cars, and he could choose any car in the factory.
Xiangnan became pregnant after she settled down in the factory. Huo De came back from the base every day to accompany her, and Zhou Xiumei was asked to come and take care of her in preparation for pregnancy.
Zhou Xiumei was used to living in Shenzhen: "Xiangnan, Shenzhen is not bad. I'll ask Da Lei to buy a house here!"
Zhou Dalei made money as a contractor. After listening to Xiangnan's advice, he bought land, built houses and sold them. Now he is a famous builder in An County. An County is now developing under the leadership of Yang Xiao. The economy is good. Everyone buys new houses when they have money. Zhou Dalei has become the richest man in An County.
In his fifth year, Yang Xiao was transferred to the Shenzhen Development Commission.
Xiangnan brought Zhou Dalei to Shenzhen to manage the real estate of Nanfeng Group. She bought a lot of land in Shenzhen, and the value increased tenfold after a few years.
Xiangnan Nanfeng Group has become the most famous industry in Shenzhen. It has built a very tall office building in the most bustling central area of Shenzhen.
Nanfeng Group's business covers many industries, including infant and toddler products. When Xiangnan was pregnant, she found that the current infant and toddler products were too poor, so she developed this industry for her own child.
After she gave birth to a girl, she didn't have another child in response to the country's family planning policy. Of course, the main reason was that childbirth was too painful. Medical technology was not well developed nowadays and there was no such thing as painless childbirth. Hood was afraid that she would suffer pain and was unwilling to let her have another child.
Xiangnan was happy not to have children, as having children would affect her business. She wanted to be a true first-generation rich and start enjoying life once she made enough money.
