We must have the courage to face difficulties and overcome them. On the path to realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must embody the spirit of stepping forward bravely in the face of adversity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as our generation dares to shoulder heavy burdens, conquer difficulties, and confront risks, our country will be filled with vitality, momentum, and hope…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our peace was hard-won; this era of prosperity was bought with the lives and blood of our martyrs. The quiet serenity of today is possible only because others carry burdens for us. That’s why I am deeply grateful to the Party and the state, to society and the people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Responsibility isn’t just a loud slogan—it demands concrete action. Though my personal strength is small, if I start with small deeds and do enough of them, I will inevitably accomplish great things…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a young Chinese of this new era, one must cherish this age, shoulder its mission, hone oneself through responsibility, and grow through duty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good. Well said.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice calling out from behind startled Zhou Andong—he turned to see He Jingyuan, who had somehow appeared behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Secretary!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people stood to offer seats, but He Jingyuan waved them off: “No need for formality. Sit down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone sat again. He Jingyuan looked at Zhou Andong and said with admiration: “To shoulder the mission of the times, to hone oneself through responsibility, to grow through duty. Excellent. Truly well said.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qing nodded in strong agreement: “I’ve finally seen firsthand just how talented Zhou Dong is—remarkable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Jingyuan suddenly said: “Zhou Dong, I’m planning to publish your remarks in the Party Daily. Would that be acceptable?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong was genuinely surprised—and then his heart burst with joy. How could he possibly refuse such a wonderful opportunity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as you have no objections, I certainly don’t.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good!” He Jingyuan smiled. “Write up the draft tonight and hand it to me or Comrade Zhengrong tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong replied: “No problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s one more thing,” He Jingyuan said. “If you have time, could you give a lecture at the Party School?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong froze for a moment, then his heart erupted in elation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giving a lecture at the Party School? That wasn’t teaching—that was networking with power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience would be packed with leaders, all of them with brilliant futures ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong’s heart soared, but his face remained expressionless—he shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was just rambling offhand. In private, I can say whatever I want—but lecturing to leaders? No, absolutely not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I say you can, so you can,” He Jingyuan said. “Just deliver today’s speech in the classroom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong hesitated, then gritted his teeth: “Fine. If you’re insisting like this, refusing would be rude.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Jian Qiu rolled her eyes, lowered her head, and took a sip of soup to hide her smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Zhengrong cursed inwardly: This little fox has a trick in every pore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Jingyuan laughed happily: “Then it’s settled.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong nodded: “After this forum ends, I’m going to Xiangjiang. I’ll do it when I return.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine!” He Jingyuan stood up. “I’m done. You all carry on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve nothing else to discuss either,” Lu Qing and Jian Zhengrong rose to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong thought he might finally have some peace—when Miss He arrived again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, I haven’t disturbed you, have I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, you have,” Zhou Andong thought—but his face beamed with a bright smile: “Not at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss He, please sit,” Jian Qiu stood and pulled out a chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you!” Miss He sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong pulled out a cigarette and gestured. Miss He waved it off: “No problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong lit a cigarette: “Miss He, what’s your impression of Yangcheng?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Jian Qiu placed two glasses of juice on the table before Miss He and Zhou Andong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you!” Miss He took a sip. “Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao share the same roots—our dialects and customs are similar. Coming here feels like being at home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong said: “So, Miss He, have you already decided to invest here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss He nodded: “When I received the invitation to this forum, I’d already made up my mind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong asked: “Hotel industry?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss He looked surprised: “How did you know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong blinked: “You can’t be planning to invest in casinos.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss He laughed: “If allowed, I wouldn’t rule it out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Andong said seriously: “If possible, let’s partner—I’ll invest too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem,” Miss He replied just as seriously. They exchanged a glance, then burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speaking of investment, are you interested in shipping?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here it comes, Zhou Andong sat up straight: “If it makes money, I’m interested.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Miss He had never worked in her family’s business—six months ago, the Gambling King suddenly ordered her back to take over the shipping division.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the business had been losing money for years, and she knew this was her father’s test of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After months of familiarizing herself with the operations, she found the shipping business even worse than she’d imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since its fiercest competitor, China Travel, had also entered the passenger shipping market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two companies clashed constantly, both teetering on the brink of bankruptcy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Miss He proposed to the major shareholders that the best way to resolve the crisis was to increase investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this plan was fiercely opposed by the executives, who refused to take such a risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss He knew that winning this battle wouldn’t be about operations—it would be about convincing these senior elders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without her father’s permission, she secretly met with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, they agreed to her capital increase plan—but refused to put in any more money themselves, so she had to seek outside investors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d planned to pursue this after returning home—but here she met Zhou Andong, a man she greatly admired and who had surprised her repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she came over. Whether he’d invest or not? She didn’t insist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, with her status, finding someone to invest one or two hundred million wasn’t difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>",1144,"2026-06-20T01:18:52.456Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4d4098ca2616b4dcab89c4d9b5eeacfc69132ec13d1475858ca88f3868d2f451","my-restarted-life-1992-chapter-1000","my-restarted-life-1992-chapter-998",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-restarted-life-1992-cover.jpg"]
