Chapter 749: Charity: Not a show for profit

Lian Xiangzhi kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself down as much as possible, and then picked up the newspaper again, reading it word by word.

Enterprises cannot avoid making money; the existence of an enterprise is for profit. If you want to make it bigger and stronger and have a foothold in the market, in addition to gaining customer trust, you also need to gain greater market recognition.

And in this era where even good wine is afraid of deep alleys, if you want to gain customer trust and market recognition, in addition to doing a good job in product quality, you must also have good publicity, which is beyond reproach.

However, some enterprises and leaders of enterprises use disasters to engage in human blood bun business that consumes the kindness of society to obtain commercial profiteering.

Their greed will overdraw the conscience of the whole society. We must be vigilant that under the packaging of some people and some enterprises, charity becomes a show for profit.

Of course...

Suddenly, the columnist changed his tone. We are in this great era, some enterprises and leaders can sell their conscience for profit and eat human blood buns.

But more enterprises and leaders are silently doing public welfare. They don't seek fame or profit, just sticking to their conscience and responsibility to society.

A typical representative is Chairman Zhou Andong of the Jiangzhou Yugong Group. He has always been doing charity. This time, the Shencheng explosion accident, he was at the scene and participated in the search and rescue.

Afterwards, he silently donated two million yuan and repeatedly urged not to report the donation, because this is what he should do. When the enterprise develops, it must give back to society...

The whole article didn't mention Lian Xiangzhi, but anyone who saw this article would think of who it was in the first place.

"Bang!"

Lian Xiangzhi slapped the newspaper on the desk. The red wine glass on the table jumped, swaying, then slowly tilted, then spilled on the table.

The red wine liquid spilled out, the wine glass rolled on the table, drew an arc, rolled out of the edge of the table, and then fell to the ground with a bang, shattering into pieces.

"It's Zhou Andong again!"

Lian Xiangzhi's angry face was distorted, looking quite ferocious and terrifying.

The middle-aged man picked up the newspaper. He had only glanced at it just now. After reading it, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

The newspaper not only slapped Lian Xiangzhi on the ground but also lifted Zhou Andong to the sky. In contrast, Lian Xiangzhi's behavior was very unbearable.

The middle-aged man was also panicked at first, because this report not only slapped Lian Xiangzhi himself but also brought irreparable negative impact to the brand.

"Call Old Ni, convince the leaders of the Academy of Sciences, and immediately hold a press conference to clarify that this donation was the decision of the Academy of Sciences."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lian Xiangzhi nodded vigorously, grabbed the phone, and quickly dialed a number.

The Academy of Sciences is the largest shareholder. If the Academy of Sciences comes forward to take the blame, the meaning will be completely different.

It can only be said that he, Lian Xiangzhi, did not handle the matter well, and it has nothing to do with the enterprise.

As long as the brand is protected and it doesn't fall into negative public opinion, nothing else matters.

Soon the other party was connected, and Lian Xiangzhi said hurriedly: "Old Ni, did you see the news?"

Old Ni was silent for a while: "Saw it."

Since inviting Old Ni to join, the company's course has been completely changed. The company finally had its own technical business card. Out of respect and consideration for the company's image, Lian Xiangzhi launched a god-making movement.

In order to maintain the prestige of the god, Lian Xiangzhi did not hesitate to damage his own authority. The general manager and the chief engineer, this pair of intimate twin constellations, became examples for many enterprises.

However, at the beginning of this year, Microsoft, the hegemon of the future IT field in the international market, launched a subversive change, which also made the sales of Lianhan cards greatly affected.

So, Old Ni ran between Shanghai, Xiangjiang, and other places, recruiting talents, and established the Lianhai Microelectronics Design Center. He poured great enthusiasm into this project called China Core.

However, his enthusiasm was met with a cold shoulder from the deputy general manager. When he went directly to Lian Xiangzhi, what he didn't expect was that this time, Lian Xiangzhi did not stand on his side and said no very firmly.

After this incident, the relationship between the two deteriorated rapidly, and every work meeting became a quarrel between the two. The once intimate twin constellations walked to the cliff of life and death like this.

This quarrel lasted until June 1995, when Old Ni was removed from the position of chief engineer of the group company.

From the beginning of the dispute between the two, it was considered to represent a duel between the two routes of trade-industry-technology and technology-industry-trade in Chinese enterprises.

In fact, such things are not a unique event in this era. It is a hesitation and dispute when Chinese manufacturing reaches a crossroads.

"Old Ni, listen to me, go to the Academy of Sciences to find the leaders immediately, let the Academy of Sciences come forward to clarify, and say that this donation was the decision of the Academy of Sciences. Then I will apologize publicly, admit this mistake, and say I didn't understand the leader's instructions well, turning a good thing into a bad thing."

Old Ni sneered: "Why don't you go to the Academy of Sciences leaders yourself?"

"I..."

Lian Xiangzhi cursed in his heart. The leader must be angry now. It's nothing to be scolded, but what if the brain has a problem and replaces me, the general manager?

"Old Ni, we can discuss the matter of establishing the Microelectronics Design Center."

"No need!" Old Ni said very calmly: "I have already submitted my resignation report to the board of directors."

"What?" Lian Xiangzhi's face became even uglier, "How come I don't know?"

If he knew Old Ni had resigned before this incident happened, he would definitely laugh three times.

Because for a period of time, Old Ni was like crazy, reporting him everywhere. Fortunately, the leader believed him.

But Old Ni bit him like a mad dog, making him feel disgusted and annoyed from the inside out.

However, at this most critical moment, Old Ni, the chief engineer, resigned, which was definitely worse for the company.

"I submitted my resignation report this morning, maybe it was too late to tell you."

Old Ni was silent for a while again, "Old Lian, I wish you a bright future."

"Wait!" Lian Xiangzhi was anxious, "Old Ni, you can't go, Lianxiang cannot be without you."

"I don't want to be swept out by you in a sorry state."

Old Ni's voice was very flat, without any ups and downs.

"If I leave now, I can still walk out of the research institute gate decently."

Lian Xiangzhi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the busy tone that made him irritable came from the receiver.

The middle-aged man asked cautiously: "What's wrong?"

Lian Xiangzhi put down the phone: "Old Ni resigned."

The middle-aged man frowned, and Lian Xiangzhi gritted his teeth: "I'll go to the Academy of Sciences myself."

At the same time, at the research institute, Old Ni walked out of the office building, looked back, and then got into a brand-new Mercedes.

Beside it was an imported bus, with more than 30 people sitting on it, all of whom were experts in the chip field he had recruited from Shanghai, Xiangjiang, and other places. Now, they had accepted the invitation of the Jiangzhou Electronics Factory Research Institute. ===== CHAPTER 750 =====
