Chapter 559

Hearing Guan Shengjie was silent for a long while: "Actually, regarding this matter, as corporate leaders, they might not have any autonomy, because behind them, including Tianfu Cola, there is local government pushing it."

"I know!" Zhou Andong was also helpless, "I wrote this manuscript to remind some people not to blindly cooperate with foreign capital. Even if you cooperate, you have to be smarter and not fall into the trap of capital."

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "With your current fame as Zhou Andong and the huge achievements you've made in business, once this article is published, it will definitely attract a lot of attention."

For the few clear-headed people, it will definitely serve as a warning, but for the majority of people pretending to sleep, even if you pee on their faces, they will still continue to pretend to sleep and will even curse you out."

Zhou Andong laughed out loud: "If I pee on their faces, of course they'll curse me. But have I, Zhou Andong, been cursed little? If they want to curse, let them. The more they curse, the louder the name Zhou Andong will become, and the greater the fame of Jiangzhou Winery will be."

Hearing Guan Shengjie also laughed: "I truly admire your courage, actually having the guts to declare war on the two Colas, and with such a big mouth too."

"How does that saying go?" Zhou Andong thought for a moment, "Despise the enemy strategically, but respect the enemy tactically."

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "Alright then, I am really looking forward to seeing if you can actually win this war."

Zhou Andong said: "This manuscript of mine will be in the papers tomorrow. Are you sure about it?"

"No problem!" Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "As long as it's not here, other newspapers won't have any problem at all."

"Tomorrow is April 1st." Zhou Andong said softly: "I can already smell the gunpowder; I reckon the two Colas are also ready."

"Don't worry!" Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "I'll go handle this matter now." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Zhou Andong checked the time and picked up the phone to call Man Hongshan.

"Old Man, how is the preparation going?"

Man Hongshan said: "Generally speaking, there's no problem. Some wall advertisements haven't been completed today, but they all promised to work overtime tonight, and they will definitely be finished by tomorrow morning."

Zhou Andong said: "That's good. Keep in touch with the field staff. If there are any problems, have them report to headquarters at any time."

"Alright!" Man Hongshan agreed and put down the phone.

This old man glanced at the Mercedes parked outside, a smile appearing on his face, his heart full of drive.

He had stayed at the winery his whole life; he didn't expect that in his old age, he would be invited back by the chairman and experience a second spring.

Not only was he made vice-chairman of the group, but he was also assigned a Mercedes-Benz. That day, he drove it back and took his wife around the streets and alleys of Jiangzhou for more than two hours.

When he got home that night, he didn't sleep well all night, especially his wife, who didn't know how many times she ran out all night, very afraid that the car would be scratched by someone with no eyes.

The next day, his son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and son-in-law all ran back and made a big table of delicious food; it wasn't even this lively during the New Year. After eating, he drove his grandchildren and great-grandchildren to the seaside for a spin.

This was great; usually, he could only see the children on Sundays, but now they would run over every few days, or they would call him to pick them up and then drive off to play.

Although he was tired every day, driving the little ones around, listening to them chattering in the back, and looking at the scenery he hadn't paid much attention to before, the old man still felt very content in his heart. …………

In Beijing, Hearing Guan Shengjie invited Du Youwei out for a meal. The other party agreed readily. The location was a noodle shop that had just opened not long ago next to the Youth Daily.

Hearing Guan Shengjie parked the Xia Li in front of the noodle shop, took his briefcase, and got out of the car, seeing Du Youwei sitting by the window, waving at him.

Hearing Guan Shengjie locked the car and entered the shop: "The environment of this shop is not bad."

Du Youwei said with a smile: "The environment is okay, and the taste is not bad either. We don't go home at noon, so we all eat here."

Hearing Guan Shengjie sat down, and the waiter came over with the menu: "Sir, Madam, what would you like to eat?"

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "Isn't this a noodle shop? Do you have anything else?"

The waiter smiled: "We have mixed side dishes and pickled vegetables!"

Du Youwei said: "Give us two bowls of soybean paste noodles, two pieces of braised pork bones, and a plate of mixed pig ears."

"Alright!" The waiter turned and left.

Du Youwei looked at Hearing Guan Shengjie: "Why did you suddenly invite me out for a meal? Is there something up?"

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "Can't I invite you out for a meal if there's nothing up?"

Du Youwei said: "You can, but you're not close to me here. Inviting me out for a meal in the middle of the day like this, no matter how I think about it, it's a bit abnormal."

Hearing Guan Shengjie chuckled: "As expected of the chief reporter of the Youth Daily, your analytical ability is so strong."

"Cut it out!" Du Youwei rolled her eyes, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Hearing Guan Shengjie took out a few sheets of manuscript paper from his briefcase: "Take a look at this manuscript."

Du Youwei took it suspiciously, and was stunned when she saw the title: "The Sorrow of National Brands"

Hearing Guan Shengjie didn't speak, but took out a cigarette, lit it, and waited silently.

Du Youwei looked down, and the expression on her face began to become rich. Worry, surprise, excitement, and she would even clench her fists tightly.

When she saw at the end that the author had written the three words 'Genius Zhou', she broke her composure and laughed out loud.

"This guy is really shameless enough."

Hearing Guan Shengjie couldn't help but laugh: "After being in contact with him for a long time, you will find that the word 'shameless' applied to him is actually a compliment; in fact, he has no face at all."

Du Youwei nodded in agreement, then looked at Hearing Guan Shengjie: "Are you planning to publish it in the Youth Daily?"

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "With Zhou Andong's current popularity, as long as this manuscript is published, the attention and sales of the Youth Daily will definitely soar."

Du Youwei pondered for a moment: "This manuscript is not suitable for publication where you are, but it won't be much of a problem here."

Hearing Guan Shengjie said: "It must be in the papers tomorrow."

Du Youwei was stunned: "So urgent?"

Hearing Guan Shengjie nodded: "Tomorrow is April 1st. I reckon it's to coordinate with their factory's beverage advertising campaign."

"In that case, wouldn't I be giving him free advertising?" Du Youwei smiled, "Giving me no benefits at all, this won't do."

Hearing Guan Shengjie said with a smile: "When he comes to Beijing, make him treat us to a big meal and really fleece him."

"Right!" Du Youwei nodded in agreement: "Must really fleece him."

At this time, the noodles, braised pork bones, and mixed pig ears arrived.

The two of them slurped and finished their meal as fast as they could. Du Youwei said: "You pay the bill, I'm going to see the editor-in-chief right now."
