Chapter 520: Striving to Be a Trendsetter

~7 min read 1,330 words

Zhou Andong was chatting with Gao Zhen when the door of the private room opened, and Zhou Wang and a young man in his twenties wearing glasses walked in.

"Chairman, Factory Director, you came so early." Zhou Wang didn't expect Zhou Andong and Gao Zhen to arrive so early.

Zhou Andong stood up: "This must be Comrade Peng Lin."

Peng Lin hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhou Andong: "Chairman Zhou, hello. I've heard a lot about you."

"Those are all empty names." Zhou Andong said with a smile, "Please sit!"

Several people sat down, and Zhou Andong greeted the waitress to serve the dishes. Peng Lin didn't drink white liquor, so they drank a few bottles of beer.

After eating and drinking, Zhou Andong said: "Brother Peng, Deputy Factory Director Zhou has talked to you, right? What do you think?"

Peng Lin said with a smile: "Thank you for your appreciation, Chairman Zhou, but I am a person who likes to be content with the situation. I am very satisfied with my current work and life."

"This doesn't sound like something a vibrant young man should say." Zhou Andong shook his head slightly. "You are a college student, and you graduated from a prestigious university. You should realize that in such an era, only by truly going to sea can you stand on the tide and become a hero of the era.

I also came out of a state-owned enterprise, and I'm a few years older than you. Some things might be clearer to me than to you. In a state-owned enterprise, wanting to stand out, ability is not the standard of measurement.

Of course, if you really have no ambition and just want to live your life in mediocrity, a state-owned enterprise is the best choice. But if you want to achieve something, there are only two possibilities.

One is to have a background, and the second is to be appreciated by leaders, otherwise you can only grind out seniority, grind until your hair is white, maybe give you a deputy division or division level, and then retire and rise one level."

Zhou Andong picked up a cigarette and personally lit one for Peng Lin: "The radiator factory is not big, it can be said that it's not presentable, but you have to know that the factory is small, no one competes with you, so you have the opportunity to display your talent.

I can also give you a promise. As long as the radiator factory gets on the right track, you can choose any enterprise under the Jiangzhou Yugong Group. The beer factory, beverage factory, electronics factory, and Yuxi Real Estate that are under construction.

You can't sit in the position of Factory Director or General Manager, but the position of Deputy Factory Director and Deputy General Manager definitely has one for you. And the Jiangzhou Yugong Group, no matter who it is, must speak with strength.

Here with me, there is no such thing as seniority or background, only ability is the standard for measuring everything. If you have ability, you go up; if you don't have ability, you go down. It's the same if you come here. How far you can go depends on your strength."

Peng Lin was moved. He didn't know about the beverage factory, electronics factory, or Yuxi Real Estate, but he knew about the Jiangzhou Winery. The beer factory under construction was jointly invested by Red Star, Qin Chi, and Jiangzhou Winery. The news was sensational at the time, and the prospects must be very broad.

"Can you give me two days to consider?"

"Yes!" Zhou Andong laughed. Since he could say this, he actually had a tendency in his heart, and he had already agreed eighty percent. "The times create heroes. We are so young, we must strive to be trendsetters, otherwise, we will fail this era.

Even if you fail, when you are old, you can tell your children and grandchildren that you were also a trendsetter, but your luck was not good, the waves were too big, and you were slapped on the beach and didn't stand up."

Peng Lin laughed heartily: "Chairman Zhou, I have watched your speeches and interviews. You are the most humorous and eloquent person I have ever seen. I was indeed moved by you.

But my parents raised me to adulthood, and what they paid is much more than what I paid. Now that I want to resign, I must discuss it with them and get their permission."

Zhou Andong nodded: "I can understand this. You can also make it clear to your parents that I, Zhou Andong, always keep my word. I will definitely fulfill the promise I made to you."

Peng Lin left, and Zhou Andong, Gao Zhen, and Zhou Wang ate some more food before checking out and leaving.

Just out of the restaurant, they heard a shout from behind: "Zhou Andong!"

Zhou Andong stopped and looked back, seeing a face that was smiling but not smiling, very arrogant.

"Zhou Andong, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

This guy was Nian Zhaoliang.

Big Braying Donkey waved his hand, and ten or so people surrounded Zhou Andong and the other two.

"Screw your mother, if I don't break your legs today, I'll call you Grandpa from now on and walk around you."

Zhou Wang was so scared that his face turned pale, but he still stood up and blocked in front of Zhou Andong, "Nian Zhaoliang, don't mess around. If something really happens to Chairman Zhou, none of you can run away."

Nian Zhaoliang glared fiercely at Zhou Andong and cursed arrogantly: "Zhou Wang, your courage has grown, daring to threaten me. Are you tired of living?"

A flash of ferocity appeared in the eyes of the big donkey-faced man, and he suddenly raised his foot and kicked Zhou Wang hard.

Zhou Andong grabbed Zhou Wang's shoulder and pulled him behind him. Then he quickly took a step forward, grabbed Big Braying Donkey's head, pressed it down fiercely, and at the same time bent his knee and hit it heavily.

"Bang!"

A dull sound of flesh collision sounded. Big Braying Donkey screamed, his head jerked upward, and those two iconic front teeth left their posts, flying into the sky with a string of blood beads. Then there was another bang, and he fell to the ground, unable to climb up for a long time.

At this time, someone in the restaurant discovered the situation outside, and I don't know who shouted.

"Someone is fighting outside."

With a whoosh, whether it was guests or waiters, they all ran out to watch the fun.

"I'll kill you." A guy who had a good relationship with Big Braying Donkey took out a short knife and stabbed Zhou Andong in the chest without hesitation.

"Be careful!" Zhou Wang screamed.

Zhou Andong turned sideways, grabbed the guy's wrist holding the short knife, and kicked the guy's chest.

"Bang!"

The guy groaned. Zhou Andong didn't let go, pulled back, and kicked out again.

"Bang!"

The guy groaned again. Zhou Andong still didn't let go. After several kicks, the guy opened his mouth, and blood sprayed out wildly.

Only then did Zhou Andong let go, and the guy fell softly to the ground, unconscious.

Quiet, the whole world suddenly fell into a deathly silence, and the air seemed to freeze.

Everyone looked at Zhou Andong in a daze, simply unable to believe their eyes, especially Zhou Wang. He never thought that the Chairman, who looked thin, was so fierce and powerful in fighting.

If someone was still calm, it was Gao Zhen, who looked like he was used to it.

Zhou Andong shook his neck, and a crisp sound came from his cervical spine.

"I haven't moved for a long time, my bones are almost rusted. Come on, one by one, or all together, it's up to you." ===== CHAPTER 521 =====
