Next, Du Shaojie spent the whole day around the new house, and the two finally decided on the decoration plan. The rest of the things are easy to handle, just leave it to the decoration company, and Qi Yan has also hired someone to supervise the project.
Du Shaojie took time to see his daughter several times. He was actually reluctant to let his daughter live in the school, but
he couldn't get away from Qi Yan. His daughter made an appointment with him to go to Hong Kong for summer vacation, and he returned home reluctantly.
Speaking of which, he didn't spend much time with his daughter, but his daughter had a good relationship with him. This may be distance creates beauty, and he meets his family almost every month, which is reasonable.
Weekend.
Du Shaojie arrived at the school gate early by car, picked up his daughter and went straight to the hot pot restaurant.
Later, Qi Yan also hurried over, and the family of three had a meal at [Shuweixiang Old Hot Pot], and after the meal, he took his daughter to buy two sets of clothes.
The daughter spent more time with Qi Yan. After all, Qi Yan was an educator and attached great importance to her daughter's education. The little girl didn't have those bad habits of rich girls, and her daily living expenses were within normal range.
Du Shaojie didn't know whether his daughter would take over the business empire he had built in the future, but so far she was the only heir.
He was too lazy to think about things that were still far away, and thinking too much would only make himself uncomfortable.
On Monday,
Du Shaojie boarded the plane and returned to Guangzhou.
In July, the last of the three major portals (SOHU) went public. If the stock price performance of SINA, the first company to go public, was unsatisfactory, then SOHU's turn was a bit horrible.
At the beginning of the listing, it saw $13 per share, and then it fell all the way, without even a decent rebound.
Du Shaojie started selling from the first day of listing, and sold 1 million shares one after another, with an average transaction price of only $8.89, and a total of $8.8 million in funds returned.
The transaction process lasted for about a month, but fortunately all the stocks in hand were sold out.
Pang Weidong and Xu Bo hired someone to manage their stocks, and Du Shaojie was not their babysitter, so how could they always bother each other? However, they certainly communicated with each other, and the two of them cleared their positions and made about the same profit.
At this point, Du Shaojie still had one NTSE stock in his hand, and if it weren't for the ban on sales, he would have sold it.
He made a fortune in the stock market, but the stock price of his own [Northwest Noodle House] was mediocre. The company's performance was indeed good, but the market seemed to be uninterested, and the stock price was dying, always hovering around 7 yuan and 8 yuan.
After the semi-annual report came out, Meng Gang convened a shareholders' meeting to review the profit distribution plan proposed by the board of directors.
This plan was discussed by him and Du Shaojie. In order to ensure the company's development potential, the dividend was not much, only 0.30 yuan per share, but there was also a stock distribution plan of 10 shares for 2 shares.
In general, more than half of the listed companies have been killed in seconds, after all, many companies have chosen not to distribute profits.
As soon as this plan came out, the stock price ushered in a small market, and the stock price rose from 7 yuan to 10 yuan, and the stock price finally entered the double-digit era.
Du Shaojie also welcomed the day of the exam.
This time he applied for the qualification exam for [Senior Chinese Cooking Technician], which was also the last level exam of his career.
It was not as difficult as he had imagined. At this point, he could basically pass it with his eyes closed. To make an inappropriate analogy, this exam was not as difficult for him as the third-level chef exam.
It was not only because his technical level had reached this level, but also because his fame had long surpassed this level.
However, he still completed the exam very seriously, which was both a respect for the exam format and a respect for himself. His cooking skills had long reached the realm of great success, and all kinds of techniques were natural.
Du Shaojie obtained the level certificate of [Senior Chinese Cooking Technician] without any dispute, but this certificate had long lost its effect on him, and its only meaning was commemorative significance.
He was a person who loved cooking, and with this certificate, at least his professional level had been completed.
"Congratulations, Mr. Du!"
Ye Weiming and others made a noise, and Du Shaojie had to set up a table in the private restaurant.
In addition to Ye Weiming, even Jiao Hongtao and Huang Yong, who were busy with work, came. Everyone thought it was a good thing, and it also showed that Du Shaojie did not forget his roots.
"Thank you, everyone! Come, let's do one together."
Du Shaojie himself did not take it seriously. This [Senior Technician] level certificate was originally a matter of easy to get.
It was rare for them to get together today. Except for Lin Zhiyuan, everyone in the circle was here.
Everyone was in high spirits, and even Jiao Hongtao drank a few more glasses. However, he and Huang Yong had too many things to do, so he said goodbye and left after sitting for an hour.
In fact, he also invited Tang Jun, but Tang Jun and his leader went to Beijing and could not come.
After eating and drinking well, everyone said goodbye one after another. Since the incident at the resort, everyone has been very cautious not to go to entertainment venues recently, mainly because they are afraid of bad influence.
They all have good self-control, and they agreed to go fishing at the fish restaurant next week. It would be more appropriate to go there.
Du Shaojie returned home and couldn't help but sigh.
It's easy to get a professional level certificate, but it's hard to break through the ceiling of his cooking skills.
Fortunately, he is not yet in his seventies or eighties, and there will be opportunities in the future, so he is not too anxious.
Summer vacation.
Du Shaojie took his daughter to Hong Kong and took a yacht to play on the sea for a few days.
Then it was shopping. His daughter gradually grew up and had her own preferences, so of course he had to buy her some things she liked.
The father and daughter stayed together for nearly a month before Du Shaojie received a call from Qi Yan, asking him to send his daughter on the plane, and his daughter flew to Beijing alone.
After sending his daughter away, he hurried back to Guangzhou.
Du Shaojie received a call from Tang Jun two days ago, asking him to take some time to go back, as they had something to discuss.
Teahouse.
Du Shaojie and Tang Jun sat opposite each other, and Tang Jun seemed to be a little worried.
"Mr. Du, the leader is going to retire, and it will be announced in October at the latest."
The news brought by Tang Jun was far beyond Du Shaojie's expectations, but such things are often very sudden, and after the shock, he slowly accepted it.
"Then have you arranged your place?"
Du Shaojie drank a few sips of tea and asked about Tang Jun's place.
"I'm still hesitating. The leader asked me to go to Xijiang or Sichuan Province. I'll think about it again."
It seems that Tang Jun will not stay. After Feng Qingsong retires, he will take up the job of washing.
Although Du Shaojie is a little reluctant, this is a routine, and he has nothing to say.
"When is the leader free? I want to cook a few dishes for him in person to show my appreciation."
"Wait for my call later. I'll contact you when I've made arrangements."
Tang Jun seemed a little absent-minded. The two sat in the teahouse for less than an hour before the other party left first.
Du Shaojie did not leave and continued to drink tea alone in the private room.
"Brother, come and have some fruit."
At this time, Sun Haitao came in with a fruit plate.
Du Shaojie smiled and asked the other party to sit down. He asked about the business status of the teahouse and got the answer "not bad".
The teahouse gradually gained a certain degree of popularity. People including Ye Weiming and Jiang Dongyuan came to support it from time to time, and the business was getting better and better.
The main reason was that Sun Haitao had no pressure to survive, so he would not do so many things. As long as you do business sincerely, generally speaking, the business will not be bad.
Du Shaojie chatted with Sun Haitao for more than half an hour before he got up and left.
"Boss, where are you going now?"
Du Shaojie got in the car, looked out the window, and remained silent for a long time.
Zou Xiaohe asked quietly. He couldn't drive without knowing the destination.
"Go home."
Du Shaojie said, and then he leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes.
He suddenly remembered what Feng Qingsong had told Tang Jun to take him. Perhaps at that time, the other party knew that he was going to quit, so he reminded him.
In the end, people still have to rely on themselves. The risks in the business world are unpredictable. It is best not to let others get a handle.
Now it seems that quitting the KTV industry is right.
After a long time, Tang Jun called and said that the leader wanted to go to the private restaurant [Deep in the White Clouds] for a visit.
Du Shaojie made arrangements in advance and cooked a table of dishes himself.
"Xiao Du, I heard that you have obtained the certificate of senior technician? It's really not easy. The dishes you cook are not worse than the level of state banquets at all. It's really enjoyable to eat."
Feng Qingsong seemed very relaxed and chatted with Du Shaojie about family matters.
If it were before, he would definitely not come to Du Shaojie's private restaurant. But now that he is about to leave, there is no need to care too much about some things.
"Leader, when you go to Beijing in the future, I will often visit you. Apart from anything else, it's not easy to eat the food I cook. I'm always free."
Du Shaojie just found out that Feng Qingsong will continue to make use of his remaining energy after leaving office, which is not what he thought before.
"That's great! I've been tired for so many years, and now I can finally have some free time. You must find me when you go to Beijing. I'm still waiting to eat the food you cook."
Feng Qingsong laughed loudly, without any melancholy.
Du Shaojie felt that the other party's mentality was really good. If it were him, he might be depressed for a while.
The meal lasted two hours, and both the host and the guest enjoyed it.
Feng Qingsong didn't let him see him off, and left directly with Tang Jun. He didn't explain anything today. On the one hand, he believed in Du Shaojie's ability, and on the other hand, didn't he still have Lin Zhiyuan?
Lin Zhiyuan will continue to stay in his current position in the future, and his status in the province will be further improved.
After Feng Qingsong left Guangdong Province, Pang Weidong and Xu Bo accelerated their pace of exiting the KTV industry.
Yin Qiang's attitude suddenly became tough, and he planned to acquire [Yuedong Entertainment] at a lower price to build his own entertainment empire.
"That bastard, do you think our backer has fallen? Pah."
Pang Weidong ignored him and suddenly sold 10 KTVs and 10 buffet restaurants to a company with foreign background.
After the transaction was completed, he called Du Shaojie. (End of this chapter)
