Chapter 276
No, he had been introducing himself for such a long time, but the other party didn't agree to admit him. How come after he cursed Li Chengdong, the other party suddenly accepted him?
Secretary Xu was a smart man and quickly realized what was happening. "Boss Qiao, you are...?"
Qiao Jiahui hissed, "Alright, just keep it in your mind. From now on, just curse Li Chengdong once a day."
Secretary Xu, “…”
Is there such a good thing?
With Secretary Xu joining in, Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui were obviously relieved.
At first, the two were a little wary, fearing that Secretary Xu would make a surprise move and act like a traitor.
Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui observed him for a long time, and even asked someone to pay attention to the news outside.
Of course, the person outside was pointing at Li Chengdong, but it was also strange that Li Chengdong was so quiet.
With the departure of his right-hand men, Li Chengdong has remained silent. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal.
As Li Chengdong's sworn enemy, Qiao Jiahui understood immediately. He sneered, "I was wondering why Li Chengdong was so quiet. Turns out he's embarrassed."
"So we didn't reveal a single word to anyone. Otherwise, given Li Chengdong's personality, he would definitely tell everyone about it."
At this point, he turned to Jiang Meishu and said, "Sister-in-law, it's very likely that Secretary Xu and Li Chengdong really had a falling out. Judging from the way they are now."
Jiang Meishu seemed to be thinking about something. "Then I'll give some of the current work to Secretary Xu."
"So, explain the specific project clearly so that Secretary Xu won't be confused."
Qiao Jiahui naturally agreed.
Secretary Xu came to Xiaodongmen and worked as a subordinate and secretary to Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui. Only then did he feel like a real worker!
What do workers do?
Isn't it just following the boss's orders? He does whatever the boss tells him to do.
But if the boss doesn't give orders and makes him worry about the boss, then what kind of employee is he?
Secretary Xu felt like he was letting himself go. As long as Jiang Meishu and Qiao Jiahui asked him to do something, he could arrange it all perfectly.
This made Jiang Meishu sigh with emotion, "Thank you so much, Li Chengdong. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have found such a capable person like Secretary Xu."
The last time she saw such an excellent secretary was Secretary Chen.
Qiao Jiahui hummed, "Let's go and provoke him some other day."
"Don't."
Jiang Meishu stopped him and said, "Let Secretary Xu do it quietly, otherwise he and his family will be retaliated against if he draws hatred for him."
Secretary Xu looked at Jiang Meishu with gratitude.
He coughed lightly and returned the favor, "Boss Jiang, you and Boss Qiao should save money well."
"What?"
This span is too big.
Secretary Xu asked, "Didn't that bastard Li Chengdong's men develop the Fugui Homeland?"
"Given his abilities, just wait and see. Within a year, Fugui Home will go bankrupt."
"When Fugui Garden goes bankrupt, you and Boss Qiao will take over this project."
Jiang Meishu looked at Secretary Xu in surprise, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Know."
Secretary Xu said neatly, "And I'm also very clear. I've been following the Fugui Garden project from beginning to end. Given Li Chengdong's personality, he wouldn't be willing to let anyone from the Li family take over, so he has no choice but to run Fugui Garden himself."
"I'm not bragging. If I were still here, the wealthy family could barely last a year and a half."
"But if I'm not here, and Li Chengdong is the only one running the business, Fugui Garden won't last more than a year."
"First, Li Chengdong doesn't have the ability to do it. Second, Li Chengdong doesn't have that much cash flow. Third, if the houses in Fugui Garden can't be sold, his cash flow will be cut off."
"As long as he doesn't ask the Li family for help, this hole will get bigger and bigger. It'll eventually get so big that when the Li family finds out, they'll send someone to evaluate whether the Fugui Garden project is still worth filling." Secretary Xu sneered at this, seeming to know the Li family intimately. "After their evaluation, if they find the cost of filling the hole is too large, so large that it will affect their other businesses, they'll naturally abandon the Fugui Garden project."
"That's when it will be your chance to grab the food."
Secretary Xu is a capable person, otherwise, he would not have followed Li Chengdong for so many years.
Even the two plots of land at Xiaodongmen and Fugui Garden were first spotted by Secretary Xu. It was a pity that he was a subordinate and did not have absolute say.
At this moment, Secretary Xu did not hide anything and revealed all his ambitions.
Jiang Meishu's heart started pounding after hearing this. "Secretary Xu, are you kidding me?"
"No."
Secretary Xu shook his head. "This is my own conclusion after thinking about it for a long time."
"If you, boss, believe me, start accumulating capital now. When you reach a certain level, a snake can swallow an elephant."
He knew that Jiang Meishu and the others were still weak now, but the future was uncertain.
The popularity of Xiaodongmen will allow them to accumulate their first pot of gold, and this pot of gold will cost Li Chengdong's life.
After hearing this, Qiao Jiahui swallowed his saliva and said, "I'm sure that bastard Li Chengdong must have offended you."
Secretary Xu said shyly, "I wouldn't say I'm offending him. I just want him to suffer a little."
He suffered too much at the hands of Li Chengdong.
Who doesn’t want to dream about the boss being killed by God?
Qiao Jiahui thought to himself, it’s not that simple.
"Okay, then you'll be responsible for keeping an eye on the situation over there," Qiao Jiahui suddenly said. "By the way, do you want to change your name?"
"That way, if you stay with us, no one will leak the news."
Qiao Jiahui and Jiang Meishu now regard Secretary Xu as their trump card.
Secretary Xu was a little hesitant.
After all, our bodies and hair are inherited from our parents, and so is our name.
"If you don't want to, forget it."
"I just mentioned it casually anyway."
Secretary Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had actually met a normal boss, which was not easy.
Xiaodongmen remained popular until August, when almost all the shops were rented out. Even the floor of the square was divided into blocks and rented out.
The markets in Shenzhen have always been weaker than those in Guangzhou, and there are no formal, large or famous places.
The emergence of Xiaodongmen has immediately made up for the current shortcomings of Pengcheng in night markets.
With the influx of vendors, Xiaodongmen Night Market and shopping malls have gradually become popular.
For these advertising videos, Jiang Meishu invited photographer Xiao to come three times. After the recording, she flew back to the capital and sent the videos to CCTV.
Gave it to Director Zhang.
Because this is CCTV’s mission this year, to promote Shenzhen.
From its construction to its opening and operation, Xiaodongmen has stepped precisely on the tide of the times in every step.
As a representative of Shenzhen's private economy, it once again appeared on CCTV, but this time it was not a 33-second advertisement.
It's a three-minute promotional video.
Ten times the exposure.
This has made Xiaodongmen in Pengcheng popular again. Last time it was an empty place, but this time, it is full of thriving businesses.
The spring breeze of reform and opening up has really arrived.
The promotional video was so successful that by the end of the year, Jiang Meishu received an interview notice from CCTV.
Jiang Meishu was actually a little hesitant, but Qiao Jiahui urged her to go, "Go ahead, go ahead. I'm from Hong Kong and it's not convenient for me to appear on mainland TV stations, but sister-in-law, don't miss this opportunity."
"After all, this is a good opportunity to promote our Xiaodongmen. If we miss it, it will be gone forever."
Jiang Meishu was still a little hesitant.
"This isn't an interview in the capital. This is an interview in our inner office at Xiaodongmen. What's your objection?"
"Sister-in-law, just think of it as a promotion for our Xiaodongmen."
Jiang Meishu gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I agree."
At this, Qiao Jiahui suddenly became happy, and turned around to arrange people in a lively manner.
The interview was scheduled for October 1st, National Day. The CCTV reporter was supposed to come by train, but when Jiang Meishu learned about it, she offered to reimburse the plane ticket.
That’s great. It’s a business trip and I can even take a plane.
Reporter Yu, who came to interview Jiang Meishu, was almost grinning from ear to ear with joy. Of course, this was in private, after the two sides met.
He became the gentle and generous person he appeared on TV again.
"Comrade Jiang, I'm Yu Chenghe, a reporter for CCTV, and I'm the person interviewing you this time."
Jiang Meishu looked at the other person, a little dazed. Isn't this the most famous talk show host of CCTV in later generations?
It’s just that the other party is still very young now, but Jiang Meishu knows that in ten years at most, the other party will be the pillar of CCTV.
Moreover, this challenge lasted for thirty years.
"Comrade Jiang?"
Reporter Yu shouted again.
Jiang Meishu came back to her senses, "I'm ready."
Yu told the reporter, "Then we'll start later."
Reporter Yu also brought a partner, who was carrying a camera. It was obvious that the professional level of the camera was really different.
Jiang Meishu nodded and said, "I'm ready. Let's go to the big office in our mall for the interview."
"Can."
The large office had already been cleaned up, and a 30-centimeter-high platform was built, on which were placed two chairs and a round table.
It does look a bit like a round table party, but there are some differences.
Reporter Yu asked again, "Comrade Jiang, are you ready?"
The camera was adjusted into place, and after reporter Yu sat down, he asked a question privately.
Jiang Meishu nodded, "I'm ready."
Reporter Yu nodded to his partner, who then turned on the camera and started recording.
Reporter Yu also began to ask questions, "Comrade Jiang, you are a native of the capital. Why did you choose to come to Shenzhen?"
His interview attitude was very casual, as if the two of them were just chatting.
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "This happened a long time ago. When my wife resigned from the state-owned factory, we discussed it and decided to respond to the country's call for reform and opening up and develop in the south. That's how we came to Pengcheng to develop."
"Your lover? Your lover is also in the South? What does he do?"
Jiang Meishu, "He opened the Hongtai bicycle factory in the south."
"And the development of our Xiaodongmen is entirely due to the support of my wife."
"Then you two are truly a loving couple."
Reporter Yu sighed, and naturally brought the topic to Xiaodongmen. "What made you think of investing in a large shopping mall like Xiaodongmen in Pengcheng?"
Jiang Meishu said frankly, "We went to Yangcheng first, but Yangcheng already had department stores and shopping malls, so I came to Pengcheng where there was no market."
"I decided to start from scratch, and thanks to luck, I was able to open the Xiaodongmen shopping mall. Of course, it was also inseparable from everyone's support and trust, otherwise Xiaodongmen would not be what it is today."
She sat in front of the camera, wearing a white suit, looking capable and beautiful.
This made Liang Qiurun, who was standing outside the interview desk, couldn't help but have a hint of pride flash in his eyes when he saw this scene. This was his Jiang Jiang.
From the shy little girl who used to hide behind others, she has now grown up to be able to talk freely in front of the camera of CCTV reporters.
He watched.
Qiao Jiahui also stared at it, but after a while, he felt bored. The words in the interview were the same over and over again. He didn't understand what Liang Qiurun was looking at.
Why are you watching so intently?
He simply left first.
Liang Qiurun was standing outside the interview platform. After the interview was over, Jiang Meishu was the first to come down from the platform. She saw Liang Qiurun standing below the platform at a glance.
She trotted over and patted her chest, "Lao Liang, you have no idea, I was so nervous."
Her face is rosy and her eyes are bright.
This look is quite different from the Jiang Meishu who was talking on the stage.
Liang Qiurun raised his hand to straighten her clothes. "I saw it. She answered very well throughout the whole process."
"My Jiang Jiang is really amazing."
He was not stingy with his praise.
Jiang Meishu pursed her lips and smiled, "Several times I was afraid of answering incorrectly."
"But I don't care. I've already done the interview. Don't come to me for this kind of thing next time."
After reporter Yu had finished organizing the manuscript, he came over and said, "Comrade Jiang's interview went smoothly and his answers were very good. Don't worry about making mistakes."
Jiang Meishu said, "Thank you, reporter Yu, for showing me the manuscript in advance."
"Okay, now that Reporter Yu has finished his interview, why don't you stay for lunch? Let's show our hospitality. The food and clothes at Xiaodongmen are truly worth experiencing."
Yu told the reporter, "Then I will respectfully obey your orders."
Jiang Meishu was a very good person, and naturally made Reporter Yu feel at home. Before leaving, she learned that Reporter Yu had a daughter who was only five years old this year, so she naturally would not let Reporter Yu leave empty-handed.
She had her own clothing factory, but unfortunately there was no children's clothing. Jiang Meishu immediately contacted the owner of the stall selling children's clothing in the Xiaodongmen shopping mall.
She personally picked out three very beautiful sets of children's clothing, as well as some pretty dolls for the little girls to play with, and handed them all to reporter Yu.
Reporter Yu is a very honest person. He never accepts any gifts when he is on a business trip.
But Jiang Meishu said, "Reporter Yu, I'm not giving this to you. I'm giving it to your daughter."
"You can't possibly travel all the way from the capital to Pengcheng on a business trip and then return without bringing any gifts for the children, right?"
"Look, these are not valuable things, but they can make your daughter happy."
Reporter Yu looked down and saw a white puffy skirt, a red dress, and a cool pair of overalls.
As soon as the reporter saw it, he knew his daughter would definitely like it.
"How much is this? I'll pay you, Comrade Jiang."
Jiang Meishu's face immediately turned stern when she heard this. "Reporter Yu, you look down on me too much. I own a shopping mall. I took two pieces of clothes from my own store and asked you to pay me. How can I open the store?"
"Okay, reporter Yu, these are all children's things, don't be so formal."
"Your flight is at 9:30 this morning. Don't be late. I wish you a safe journey in advance."
Reporter Yu then nodded and accepted it. "Thank you."
However, he had made up his mind that he would polish the manuscript carefully after returning, and also take a look at the video recording to see if there were any inappropriate answers and cut them out in advance.
So as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Comrade Jiang.
Only after the reporters left did Jiang Meishu breathe a sigh of relief. She handed all the work around her to Secretary Xu and went back to have a good rest for three days.
It happened on the third day after the reporter returned, which was the National Day.
His interview record was finally broadcast on CCTV, and it was during the prime time.
At the same time, Wang Limei and Liang's mother, who had received the news, all sat in front of the TV, waiting for the news to end at 7:30.
Next is the promotional video of the interview with Jiang Meishu.
When Jiang Meishu's overly bright face appeared in front of the camera.
Wang Limei screamed subconsciously, covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes filled with excitement. She turned around and introduced herself to her acquaintances at the stall, "She's my daughter."
"That girl on TV is my daughter. She was on CCTV."
There was unconcealable pride in her tone.
The others immediately looked over. There were quite a few people who went to Xiaodongmen with Wang Limei to buy a house.
Moreover, it was Jiang Meishu who hosted them, and seeing Jiang Meishu's interview on TV again made everyone feel indescribable.
It’s like it’s someone you know, but suddenly everything becomes different. The other person is on TV and has become a celebrity.
Seeing Wang Limei's excitement, it didn't seem surprising.
"Limei, you are so lucky to have such a promising daughter."
"Yeah, your daughter was on TV, and she wasn't nervous at all. I saw the reporter asking questions one after another, and she didn't seem to be overwhelmed at all. In fact, she answered quite well."
"I also think that Limei is a courageous girl."
"This isn't just courage; it's ability. Otherwise, she wouldn't have opened such a large shopping mall and developed real estate at such a young age."
"You are such an outstanding girl, Limei. Just wait. When you are older, you can enjoy a peaceful and happy life."
"If we were you, and our child was this outstanding, we definitely wouldn't work so hard."
"What else are you doing? If something leaks between the child's fingers, you won't be able to finish it."
Wang Limei's face was flushed. "I am me, and my children are my children. I can't expect my children to take care of me in my old age when I'm only 55, right?"
"My child must be so tired."
"While I can still do some work now, I will do more so that my children won't be burdened in the future."
Jiang Meilan looked at her mother who was talking in the crowd, hugging the eight-year-old Shen Xiaoju.
Shen Xiaoju pointed at her aunt on TV and whispered, “Mom, my aunt is so awesome.”
"yes."
Jiang Meilan was a little dazed, "Your aunt is really amazing."
Compared with her younger sister, she has only had minor fights over the years.
night.
Jiang Meilan couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned, startling Shen Zhanlie. He whispered, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Meilan sighed, "I feel like compared to Meishu, I'm pretty useless. I've been down south for so many years, and I actually think it's pretty good to be running a small business like this."
She used to be quite satisfied with earning some stall fees, buying a house, and then shipping the goods to the capital to sell.
However, seeing her sister like that, she suddenly became dissatisfied.
My sister has worked so hard!
Why can she still be so depressed!
No, she has to work hard too.
Shen Zhanlie, “Aren’t we doing well now?”
"Not enough."
Jiang Meilan shook her head. "Chen Zhanlie, we only came a year later than Meishu and the others, but they now have assets worth at least tens of millions."
"And us?"
Shen Zhanlie argued softly, “If we add up all our assets, it’s almost two million.”
"That's a lot."
"ten times."
Jiang Meilan said, "The gap between us and them is ten times."
"If we keep this stall and the shop in the capital, we can make a living for the rest of our lives."
She suddenly turned over and looked at Shen Zhanlie, her eyes revealing ambition, "But I don't want to do this anymore."
“Shen Zhanlie, Meishu can open the Xiaodongmen shopping mall, and her second sister-in-law Shen Mingying dares to open a toy factory, so why don’t we dare to open a factory?”
"We have the experience, we have the money, and we have the connections. We've been working hard in Guangzhou for six years."
"That's enough. If Shen Zhanlie doesn't do something, we'll all be old."
Shen Zhanlie didn't say anything, mumbling on the pillow, "Then what kind of factory do you want to open?"
Jiang Meilan, "What's the best-selling item at our stall every day?"
Shen Zhanlie said subconsciously, "Clothes."
"Yes, among food, clothing, housing and transportation, clothes come first and are also the items that are replaced the fastest."
What toys? Bicycles are nothing compared to clothes.
"But, isn't there a garment factory?"
Shen Zhanlie was a little confused.
The place where they set up stalls and purchase goods every time is the Li Garment Factory.
Jiang Meilan was ambitious. "We do have a clothing factory, but Wenjuan's makes adult women's clothing. How big a market can she capture with just one factory?"
"You have to understand that there are hundreds of millions of people in the country. I'm not asking every one of them to buy me a piece of clothing, but if ten of them buy one, it would be enough for us to become wealthy."
Shen Zhanlie frowned, "You also make adult clothing?"
"No."
Jiang Meilan uttered a few words, "I make children's clothing."
"I want to open a children's clothing factory."
