"Father, I've remembered everything you said."
"Lin Sen is indeed not without merit; he has many strengths, and I am aware of that."
"I did underestimate Lin Sen before, which led to my plan failing and me being tricked by him. I admit my mistake."
"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely study his strengths very seriously, without any personal feelings involved, and try my best to make them my own!"
Despite his disdain for Shen Youde's reprimand, he still looked down on Lin Sen and hated him. He didn't think Lin Sen was better than him and only thought Lin Sen was lucky.
Next time, when Lin Sen is unlucky, he will definitely be able to defeat Lin Sen severely and make Lin Sen pay a terrible price for his rampant sexual behavior.
This caused Lin Sen's brewery to go bankrupt completely, and he couldn't sell a single bottle of beer!
Although he didn't think this in his heart, on the surface, Shen Zhao was still very respectful and made a lot of promises to Shen Youde.
He expressed that he truly intended to reform himself and was eager to learn.
"Um."
"It's good that you think that way."
Shen Youde, who had no idea what Shen Zhao was really thinking, nodded slightly in satisfaction as he looked at Shen Zhao, who outwardly admitted his mistake and corrected it.
"I'm telling you, you can make many mistakes."
"If you make a mistake, I can clean up your mess and give you a chance to start over."
"But Lin Sen, he can't afford to make even one mistake. Because if he does, he'll be completely ruined and lose everything!"
"So you are much luckier than him, and you have far more opportunities than him!"
At this point, Shen Youde let out a bitter sigh.
Of course, his sigh was not for Lin Sen.
It was for his own sake.
Because when he and Jiang Yannian first started the cannery, they were so cautious. One wrong step could lead to utter ruin and complete loss of everything, and disgrace.
My life is completely ruined!
During those days, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep night after night.
That was arguably the most painful period of his life!
"father."
"I am so lucky to have you."
Shen Zhao quickly agreed, "But don't worry, I will try my best to make as few mistakes as possible."
"I'm not afraid of you making mistakes, but I'm worried that after you make mistakes, you won't humbly learn from them, but will fall in the same place twice and make the same mistakes."
"Is this something I can't accept?"
Shen Youde looked at Shen Zhao with utmost seriousness: "Everyone makes mistakes. Remember, as long as you acknowledge your mistakes, correct them, study diligently, and don't repeat the same mistakes next time."
I won't blame you.
"Based on this, you can apply what you've learned to other situations and avoid making similar mistakes."
"I won't blame you; on the contrary, I'll praise you."
Shen Youde gave Shen Zhao a thumbs up: "Do you understand now?"
"father."
"I've got it!"
Shen Zhao immediately nodded obediently and very seriously.
"Back then, I absorbed the strengths of many of my competitors and remembered their mistakes so that I could avoid them."
"That's why the Shen family exists today, and why they are now the richest family in Linhai County."
"All of this was achieved step by step with blood and sweat, with my life on the line."
"They are like my children, and from now on, they will all belong to you."
"So I hope you and they are both doing well."
“Your mother is soft-hearted and emotional. I hope you are like that too.”
Shen Youde looked at Shen Zhao seriously: "You're not in a hurry to work now. When you get back, write me a serious letter of apology."
Write down what you think went wrong in this incident, and where your planning was not thorough enough.
"Then, if you were given a chance to charge, what would you do?"
"Then, what are the strengths of Lin Sen that you should learn from, and what are the weaknesses that you should try to avoid?"
After a pause, Shen Youde took a sip of tea: "After you finish writing this, put yourself in Lin Sen's shoes and imagine you are Lin Sen."
"Given the current predicament, how do you plan to compete with the Shen family?"
"How can we make his Dongshan Beer occupy a certain market share in Linhai County, and then gradually defeat our Shen's Linhai Beer, causing us to go bankrupt and close down completely!"
"Dad, our Shen's Brewery will definitely not go bankrupt."
Shen Zhao immediately said, "Our Linhai Beer is definitely better than his Dongshan Beer!"
"Of course I know that."
Shen Youde smiled and said, "What I mean is, if you were Lin Sen, what would you do, how would you compete with us, and how would you defeat us?"
"Remember this: know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."
"Before engaging in business competition, we must not only devise our own competitive strategies, but also consider the same strategies from the perspective of our competitors, and then take steps to avoid them!"
"Only in this way can we get things done."
"Only then can we achieve complete victory in business competition."
Shen Youde looked at Shen Zhao with a very serious expression: "Over the years, many people have challenged me, but they have all failed. As for me, our Shen family food factory is still alive and well."
"This is my secret technique."
"I will put myself in their shoes and think from their perspective to figure out how they will deal with us."
"Then, using our thinking, we will list out the solutions and corresponding plans for this method one by one."
"In this way, when the enemy uses a similar approach to compete with us in the business world..."
"The enemy will then discover that we were prepared for everything they did and can easily deal with it."
Shen Youde laughed and said, "As long as we don't make any mistakes, we'll be able to defeat the enemy when they've exhausted all their tricks and are helpless against us."
"We only need to use a few moves to overwhelm the enemy and they will be completely and quickly wiped out."
"In the end, all that remains is to lose everything, a utterly tragic bankruptcy and closure!"
Shen Youde took a sip of tea: "This method is my closely guarded secret, but I'm telling you it today."
"So when you get back, I'll give you two weeks to thoroughly investigate the market."
"After you've written your apology, show it to me before you go back to work at the factory."
"clear?"
Shen Youde put down his teacup and looked intently at Shen Zhao: "Is it possible?"
"Father, don't worry!"
Shen Zhao clenched his fists, nodded heavily with a solemn expression, and said, "I will definitely do my best and will never let you down!"
"Yes, it's good to have that kind of confidence."
"Go."
Shen Youde smiled and waved to Shen Zhao: "I'll be waiting for your letter of apology."
"yes!"
Shen Zhao immediately nodded emphatically in agreement and left with Yang Guodong.
"Old Yang."
After Shen Zhao left, watching his retreating figure, Shen Youde took another sip of tea, then glanced at Yang Bing beside him: "What do you think of my son?"
