Chapter 129: Business
While Su Tao and the others were chatting animatedly, there was also a lively conversation on the other side of the living room.
"I heard from Feng Cheng that you got the first place in the provincial science subject in the college entrance examination this time. Not bad!" Qi Maoxun's eyes showed admiration. His nephew was extraordinary. In such a rural environment and without parents, he could achieve such results.
"Luck." He Chuan said modestly.
"How can it be called luck? This is your ability. Don't you know how low the admission rate of the college entrance examination is this year? Only 4.8%." Qi Maoxun said majestically.
He Chuan was also surprised that it was so low.
"Did you apply to study economics at Peking University? This is a good major. Now that the country is vigorously developing its economy, it really needs talents like you. It will be beneficial to your future career." Qi Maoxun said with relief.
He Chuan frowned upon hearing this and said, "I don't plan to follow him."
Qi Maoxun flew into a rage upon hearing this and scolded, "Why don't you want to follow this path? My family has been following this path for generations, and I'm in this position now. It's going to be much easier for you to follow this path."
He Chuan lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Is it always better to be a success? If my father hadn't been a success, he wouldn't have been envied and would not have ended up like that. So what if you are in this position? You still couldn't save my mom and dad back then. There are too many people watching you in this position. There are too many things you can't do and you are bound by constraints. I don't want that. I want to give Taotao a stable and prosperous life, and I can't give her that."
"You, you still blame me in your heart, right? Forget it, make your own decision, I can't control it anymore." Qi Maoxun sighed, his aura weakened, and he looked like an ordinary old man in his twilight years.
"I don't blame you, I just think that times have changed. Being an official is not the only way out. I want to do business. A strong country requires economic development, and business will enter a period of rapid development in the future." He Chuan calmly expressed his views.
Qi Maoxun looked at He Chuan with some surprise. This nephew always managed to surprise him time and time again. His position of power meant he was exposed to more strategies and development trends, but He Chuan was truly able to discern these trends with his keen observation and incredible intuition. It was the same with the last gambling incident, and it was the same now. He truly was a promising young talent.
Qi Maoxun once again lamented He Chuan's choice, feeling it was a waste of talent. Never mind, he still had years before graduation, and who knew things might change in the future. He'd let this kid get into the business world and get himself into trouble before he could offer any advice.
"Since you insist on doing business, I won't stop you. Let me tell you a piece of news. Beijing is now conducting a pilot program for private enterprises. It has not been launched yet and is being promoted on a small scale. The state will provide a lot of policy and financial support. If it is successful, it will be promoted nationwide." Qi Maoxun said in a low voice.
He Chuan's eyes lit up. "You mean, I can set up a private company and openly run my business?"
Qi Maoxun nodded. "It's just a pilot program right now, so we can't officially announce it yet. The procedures are handled like a private enterprise, and the individual will be responsible for their own profits and losses. But for now, it's still officially registered under a state-owned enterprise."
Qi Maoxun quickly enlightened He Chuan, and he realized that this was a typical case of selling dog meat under the guise of selling sheep meat. Outsiders who were unaware of the situation thought it was a state-owned enterprise, but in reality it was a private enterprise. How clever!
Seeing He Chuan's keen interest, Qi Maoxun continued, "We currently have a few candidates for the private sector, and we're planning to select someone from state-owned enterprises. Of course, it depends on the individual's opinion, and whether he's willing to take the initiative. We won't make this public, because even if you go to the industrial and commercial department, they'll probably tell you it's nothing."
Qi Maoxun looked calm and composed, waiting for He Chuan to come and ask him for help, just like an old naughty boy.
