Chapter 491 Matchmaking Success
Seeing Xiaolin bringing a group of people in, I walked out. My mother said happily, "You should come more often. I can't do anything else, but I can cook."
Captain Gu laughed and said, "It's better than the chef in the restaurant."
My mother no longer calls them goblins, because she feels particularly relieved because these people run a company with her daughter-in-law.
I ushered them into the study and introduced them to Shaojie. Shaojie bowed to each of them while Xiaolin busied herself with making tea. After the tea was served, she went to help in the kitchen.
I called her: "And Mr. Kong is coming."
She said, "I know. Yiwei told me a long time ago."
Team leader Gu said, "We're finishing our morning work today, so let's come together and ask you to come up with a name."
I said, "Well, I must think about this carefully."
Yiwei said, "Should we go for a walk outside so that we can stop you from thinking?"
I smiled and said, "Let's drink tea and chat, maybe inspiration will come to us."
So the four of them chatted about this and that, talking about social news and interesting things.
Suddenly, an idea struck me, and I said, "I've thought about a name. Let's call it 'Beauty Walk' Art Club."
After that, I found a pen and paper, wrote these five words on the paper, and explained:
"Lirenxing, these three characters are the name, and the "Yishe" at the end refers to the nature of the shop. The original meaning of "Li" is 'in the same group' or 'to go together', and here it refers to the three of you going together.
But it goes beyond that. You founded this company to make more people beautiful and let them be accompanied by beauty. This is the first meaning.
The second meaning is that it conforms to mathematics. "Li" has 7 strokes, "Ren" has 2 strokes, and "Xing" has 6 strokes. "Li Ren Xing" has 15 strokes in total, which adds up to 1+5=6. 6 is an yin number, which is consistent with a woman opening a shop.
They understood the first part, but were confused by the second part. Captain Gu said, "We'll use whatever name you choose. A name chosen by the master is definitely a good one."
Yiwei said, "Yes, whatever you say is fine. I'll listen to you anyway."
I said, "Don't tell anyone that I took it."
Yiwei asked back, "Why?"
I smiled and said, "You two are indeed beauties, but if I say Xiaolin is a beauty, it's a bit boastful."
Captain Gu laughed heartily: "Tell Xiaolin later that you will be made to kneel on the washboard all night."
Jiang Yiwei said, "What's wrong with Sister Xiaolin? She's a standard beauty, and you won't be allowed to slander her behind her back."
After a while of chatting and laughing, the name was decided. I said, "It's a bit cheesy, but it's easy to remember."
Shaojie said, "Yes, the name should be easy to remember. Some names are very common, such as BYD. I heard that Boss Wang founded BYD Electronics and often travels to foreign countries to participate in trade fairs."
Yadi's name starts with Y. Overseas, the order of exhibitions is alphabetical, so their booth was located deep inside the exhibition hall.
Later, when we were making cars, we simply added the word '比' in front of the name, which starts with B, so the booth was positioned at the front."
Captain Gu and Yiwei didn't know whether it was true or not, and asked me, "Is that so?"
I laughed and said, "I don't know either. But of these names, at least 'Yadi' is a better name. Many people use it to name people. Ya, the five elements are earth, and Di, the five elements are fire. Fire and earth represent the stove."
The stove is a dining utensil with good meaning. Whether it is a family or a company, there is earth and fire. Lighting the stove to cook is called vitality. If there is no smoke in the house, it means there is no food.
As for the name 'BYD,' even if the namer didn't mean it, it actually hints at a new energy vehicle business. "BYD" is associated with water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, and this follows the laws of nature."
"These are too difficult," said Gu.
I smiled and said, "Yes, if you believe it, it exists; if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist."
While we were chatting, Kong Haoran came in. I introduced Shaojie to Kong Haoran. Captain Gu said, "You three men chat, we'll go for a walk outside."
Kong Haoran asked Shaojie why he liked stones.
Shaojie said, "It's a very strange feeling. A person's life is only so long, but stones have witnessed all the vicissitudes of life, some tens of thousands of years, some even hundreds of millions of years. It feels like they have souls, but I just can't put my finger on it."
Kong Haoran slapped his thigh and said, "That's exactly how I feel. Sometimes I can stare at a stone for hours, wondering why it looks the way it does. Especially on some unusual stones, why are the patterns so meaningful?"
As they started talking, they became increasingly interested. I couldn't get a word in. So I got up and went for a walk outside.
After walking around and returning to the study, Shaojie said, "Mr. Kong wants to come to my place to look at the stones."
I was very happy and said, "Look, I came here at the right time today. I met a collector."
Kong Haoran said: "As long as his stones are good, there will be no worries about sales. I have a group of stone lovers, which is full of stone lovers who are not short of money."
He turned to Shaojie and said, "I'll add you to the group."
I quickly said, "Wait a minute, he hasn't named his stone yet. Only when he names it and recommends it to the group will people like it."
Kong Haoran said: "Strange stones don't care about names."
I said, "No, the most important thing about a strange stone is that it has a good name."
Kong Haoran looked at me in confusion.
I took out the stone he had given me and said, "This is the one you dislike the most. I put it in a corner. I gave it a name and made a base. Now even if you want to take it back, I won't let you."
He said no?
I explained to him in detail why the name "Spring Thunder" was chosen and why Mr. Fang carved a base with new buds emerging from the ground.
The more Kong Haoran listened, the more interested he became. After listening, he gave me a thumbs-up and praised me:
"Teacher Wan is truly knowledgeable. My understanding of strange stones has taken a big step forward."
Shaojie said: "After we name a group and make the base, you can invite me to join the group."
Kong Haoran said: "No wonder people now say we need to tell China's story well. It seems we also need to tell the story of stones well."
I laughed and said, "Specially strange rocks in the world are like exceptionally beautiful women, they are just very rare.
If we want to marry an average-looking woman to a good man, we have to say that she has good qualities, a good personality, is well-educated, and is particularly good at reading. We also say that beauty has its limits and that when she gets old, she will be a replica of her parents. If we tell these stories well, it will be easier to make the move."
Kong Haoran and Tan Shaojie laughed together.
Kong Haoran said, "Teacher Wan, when you have time, please help me name my stone. I won't sell it, but if it's given a good name and made into a base, it will become precious and can be given as a valuable gift to a friend."
I said, "Yes. It's much more meaningful than giving you a few cartons of famous cigarettes or bottles of famous wine. Some people don't have to worry about cigarettes and wine, they just want to have something that others don't have."
Kong Haoran said: "I can learn a lot from Teacher Wan..."
After saying this, he suddenly fell silent for a long time. His mouth was open, his thoughts seemed to have stopped, and he turned into a wooden sculpture.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh again and said, "I remember, Teacher Wan, are you free tomorrow night?"
I said, "Not necessarily during the day, but I should be free at night."
"I have a friend who, after hearing me talk about you, became very curious. He asked me to make an appointment, the sooner the better, so he can come visit you. He's in the agricultural machinery business, and he has a pretty big business."
I said, "As Mr. Kong's friend, I will certainly welcome you with open arms."
Kong Haoran laughed heartily: "I will definitely tell him this."
At this time, Xiaolin came in and said, "It's time to eat."
