Chapter 1370

A happy smile bloomed on Hou Guangbi's face: "That's right. Being able to enjoy the company of my grandchildren in my own old residence is the dream of my life, and now it has finally been realized."

Su Xinghui asked, "Then they can stay for a while longer this time, right?"

Hou Guangbi said, "They won't be leaving this time. They are settling down in the country."

Su Xinghui said in surprise, "Are you telling the truth? They are really not leaving?"

Hou Guangbi nodded and said, "Really not leaving. Settling down in the country can also be considered as contributing to the country's construction."

It turned out that for nearly a year, Hou Guangbi's sons had been busy dealing with the industries of their branch in France. By now, they had dealt with almost everything, and they already had about one billion US dollars in funds in their hands.

Hou Guangbi said, "Xinghui, look at these funds of ours. What industry is better to invest in?"

The Hou family now had such a large sum of funds, so Su Xinghui really had to help them find a few better industries. The reason Hou Guangbi asked him was also because he trusted Su Xinghui's vision. The electrical appliance factory he suggested Hou Guangbi invest in before had now achieved very good benefits and had become a cash cow for the Hou Group.

Su Xinghui said without hesitation, "The few industries most worth investing in in the country now are the electronics industry, the electrical appliance industry, the software industry, the internet, and real estate development. You can choose a few to enter."

As soon as Hou Guangbi talked about commercial topics, he seemed to be twenty years younger. A wise light flashed in his eyes: "What does the electronics industry specifically refer to?"

Su Xinghui said, "If the Hou Group has technical strength, manufacturing chips is of course the best. Industries related to chips, including computers and mobile phones, will have very high profit margins in the future and also have great market potential. You should attach importance to these few industries."

Hou Guangbi nodded, and he said again, "The electrical appliance industry is indeed a good industry. We will also attach more importance to it in the future. Do you also know a lot about the software industry and the internet?"

Su Xinghui thought to himself, in this era, don't say China, I'm afraid there is no second person in the whole world who knows more deeply about the software industry and the internet than him. After all, he has insights that are twenty years ahead of the times, and these two industries don't say twenty years, they can undergo earth-shaking changes every two years.

Of course, this is not to say that Su Xinghui is very proficient in technology. What he understands is only the development direction of these industries, as well as his experience as a user. But these are precisely the most important things for these two industries.

The current Su Xinghui can be said to be a prophet of many industries. As long as he is willing, he can lead a certain enterprise in these industries to brilliance.

Su Xinghui said, "I also often pay attention to the relevant news in these industries. These industries will definitely change the world and change our lifestyle very deeply in the future."

Hou Guangbi smiled and said, "Change the world? Change our lifestyle? Isn't this saying a bit too big?"

Su Xinghui said, "Fifty years ago, did you think that there could be so many household appliances now that would make our lifestyle undergo such a big change? Thirty years ago, did you think that home computers could make our way of working undergo such a big change? Twenty years ago, did you think that mobile phones would make our way of contacting each other undergo such a big change?"

For others, they might not have such a deep feeling about Su Xinghui's words, but for Hou Guangbi, an old man approaching eighty, his feeling was very deep, because Su Xinghui said what he had just experienced. He could deeply realize the huge contrast between the two lifestyles before and after.

Hou Guangbi nodded thoughtfully and said, "Do you mean that software and the internet can also produce such a huge change to the world and our lifestyle?"

Su Xinghui said with a smile, "I think they will produce an unprecedented huge change to the world and our lifestyle. It will be a revolutionary change. This change will exist in every aspect of our work and life, allowing people in every corner of the world to experience it and benefit from it..."

Hou Wenhai, who was listening to them, nodded and said, "Grandpa, I think Xinghui is right. Now our electrical appliance factory is all office work with computers. Now we can send emails to any place in the world. We use management software, which can manage our factory as never before. Although there are still shortcomings in the management method now, I believe it will get better and better in the future."

Su Xinghui said, "Yes, this kind of management software is called ERP software. A set of software can be used to manage a huge enterprise, managing this enterprise from all aspects such as personnel, finance, administration, production, warehousing, logistics, etc. Think about it, a chairman can sit in the office in the future, and a small screw is issued in the warehouse, and he can know it immediately. Isn't this very magical?"

"In the future, we will not only have emails but also instant messaging software. Two people from all over the world, or even a group of people, can communicate together through this software, and can even see each other through cameras, and can hold meetings, saving countless expenses. Isn't this very magical?"

"In short, through software and the internet, we can do many things that were impossible or even unimaginable before, which can make our work, study, and life extremely convenient, make the whole earth smaller, become a global village, and make people's connections become closer..."
