Chapter 1569
Hu Yujin came with his men in an aggressive manner, but eventually left in disarray, in a mess and losing face.
But for Ji Feng, it was a windfall.
The fact that Hu Yujin and Song Mingyan attach so much importance to Tian Xiaodong’s problems undoubtedly means that Tian Xiaodong must have something in his hands that can threaten them, or that Tian Xiaodong knows something related to them.
If Hu Yujin had taken the initiative to go soft or talk nicely, perhaps Ji Feng would not have pursued the matter too much, but this Hu Yujin was also really too arrogant, so Ji Feng had nothing to be polite about.
Since we already know that Tian Xiaodong and the people he was arrested at the same time are in possession of some important information or something, how could Ji Feng let go of this opportunity?
Just take your time to interrogate them!
As for the fact that it is not yet known whether Tian Xiaodong has this information or the people who were arrested at the same time as Tian Xiaodong, but there is no need to rush, it will always be interrogated.
So Ji Feng also acted very indifferent, just leisurely drink tea, while the sky and the South China Sea chatted with He Hongwei, Zhou Fei Fei two a few.
He Hongwei is not the slightest psychological burden, originally he came here is to give face to Zhou Fei Fei, as to say Ji Feng is what attitude, or Zhou Fei Fei what they want to find Ji Feng to do, this has nothing to do with him He Hongwei.
But that Zhou Fei Fei, however, was apprehensive in her heart.
Although Ji Feng spoke to her from time to time, she could tell that Ji Feng’s attitude was already somewhat cold and when he spoke, he also carried a sense of distancing.
It would be strange to say that Ji Feng didn’t have any opinion about her!
But Zhou Fei Fei didn’t know how to explain, she could only try to hope that Ji Feng could understand her!
“It’s getting late, I think we should stop here today!”
Soon, after the pot of tea was finished, He Hongwei looked at the time and also stood up, “Ji Feng, thank you for your hospitality today ……”
“BullSh*t!”
Ji Feng laughed and shook his head, saying, “Young Master He, you’re hitting your face. Does this count as hospitality?”
He pointed to the teapot on the table, and the two plates, which were the fruit plate and the snack plate, respectively, and that was all they had for dinner.
If this was considered hospitality, then this was a very generous meal!
“It’s already enough!” He Hongwei laughed, “After being disgusted by the flies, it’s better to have some tea instead, I couldn’t eat even if you asked me to! I’m just afraid that Fei Fei hasn’t eaten enough, right?”
“I’ve eaten enough too!” Fei Fei Zhou laughed, “I’ve been on a diet recently too ……”
“Then use the Kang Yuan slimming powder made by Xiao’s Pharmaceutical Factory!” Ji Feng picked up, “The effect is good oh!”
“Ji Feng, in order to make your girlfriend’s business even bigger, you are sparing no effort to help sell it!” He Hongwei teased.
Several people burst out laughing.
“Alright then, that’s it for now, I’ll take my leave first!” He Hongwei left first.
“Mr. Zhou, let’s go too then!” Ji Feng said to Fei Fei Zhou with a smile.
“Well ……” Zhou Fei Fei’s smile was a bit forced, from the way Ji Feng addressed her, one could hear that between them, they were probably really estranged.
The two walked outside, not very fast, but no one spoke.
Ji Feng secretly shook his head in his heart, Zhou Fei Fei was indeed very smart, however, she liked to play small, which made Ji Feng a bit disgusted.
For example, today, if Zhou Fei Fei had greeted herself in advance and said she was bringing Hu Yujin and Song Mingyuan over, she might not have agreed, but Zhou Fei Fei went to such great lengths to first find He Hongwei and then bring them over so suddenly without even saying hello to herself ……
“Ji Shao ……”
Zhou Fei Fei suddenly spoke up, “I’m sorry for what happened today.”
Ji Feng waved his hand, “It’s nothing, it’s not your fault, it’s Hu Yujin who is too arrogant.”
Zhou Fei Fei said softly, “Young Ji, I know what I did today was a bit inappropriate, but Hu Yujin is after all Governor Hu’s grandson, he found me and asked for my help, there was no way I could not agree.”
Ji Feng smiled, “No need to say anything, I can understand it all.”
“Young Ji, please listen to my explanation!” Zhou Fei Fei’s charming face was covered with bitterness, “Although my Zhou family is considered a bit powerful in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but Shi Lin is in prison, our family can hardly reach it, so I can only give Hu Yujin this face ……”
“Then why didn’t you say hello to me in advance?” Ji Feng asked.
“It was all at Hu Yujin’s request, he said, after all, he had clashed with you before, and if I had said in advance that he was coming, you might not have met him, so ……” Zhou Fei Fei shook her head and laughed bitterly, “If I had known there would be this situation today, I wouldn’t have brought him in any way!”
Ji Feng nodded his head, he understood what Fei Fei Zhou meant.
As Hu Yujin was the son of the governor, it was needless to say how much energy he had.
In the end, it was Zhou Fei Fei who wanted Zhou Shilin to have a better life in prison, or to be released early.
Ji Feng couldn’t help but shake his head, and when all was said and done, it still turned to the original issue – Zhou Fei Fei had broken her initial promise to interfere with Zhou Shilin’s affairs!
“Then why did you still call on He Hongwei?” Ji Feng suddenly asked.
“I-I was worried that after you saw Hu Yujin, you might not give face!” Zhou Fei Fei said.
“Hehe! Now you see, it’s not that I don’t give face, it’s that Hu Yujin doesn’t give me face!” Ji Feng laughed lightly.
Zhou Fei Fei then became embarra*sed and couldn’t say anything.
“General Zhou, I still have a question I want to ask you.” Ji Feng suddenly said.
“Please speak, young Ji!” Zhou Fei Fei’s heart jumped wildly a few times, Ji Feng was so polite, obviously he was already very distant from her ah.
“The video of your brother trashing that girl, I remember that you also watched it at first, didn’t you?” Ji Feng asked.
“…… Yes!” Zhou Fei Fei nodded her head.
“Should your brother die?” Ji Feng asked.
“……” Zhou Fei Fei didn’t dare to answer.
“Does it mean that your family is rich and powerful, so if you get someone killed, you will only be slightly punished and it will be fine?” Ji Feng asked again.
“Ever thought about what your family would think if this kind of thing fell on your head?”
“Do you want me to take you to that girl’s parents and ask them if they agree with Zhou Shilin’s early release from prison?”
……
This series of questions from Ji Feng left Zhou Fei Fei speechless, her face red and embarra*sed, not knowing where to put her hands.
“That’s it for today!” Looking at Zhou Fei Fei’s embarra*sed look, Ji Feng shook his head and dropped a sentence, before striding out.
White Spider followed closely behind.
“Young Ji!”
Zhou Fei Fei hurriedly shouted at Ji Feng, but only saw a back view of Ji Feng.
“He really did something wrong!”
Looking at Ji Feng’s back, Zhou Fei Fei was despondent, she felt that maybe her presumptuous behavior today would completely estrange her relationship with Ji Feng, and perhaps …… could never return to the previous state of togetherness.
“Young Ji, are you all right?”
It was not until she walked out of the Spring River Flower Moon Night Club that White Spider asked softly.
“What can happen to me?” Ji Feng asked with a smile.
“But I see that you seem a bit unhappy ……,” said Bai Spider, somewhat embarra*sed.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine!” Ji Feng waved his hand and laughed, “White Spider, what would you say is really smart?”
“Really smart?”
The white spider was slightly stunned and said hesitantly, “It should be a great intellect that is really smart!”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but brighten his eyes and laughed, “Hmm! That’s …… a pity, some people just don’t understand this truth and take their small wisdom as great wisdom, ridiculous!”
The white spider looked back inside the clubhouse and nodded thoughtfully, she seemed to have some understanding of who Ji Feng was talking about.
“Ding ……”
Just at this moment, Ji Feng’s mobile phone suddenly rang, it was actually He Hongwei calling.
Ji Feng couldn’t help but be stunned, hadn’t this guy left, why was he calling?
“Mr. He, what’s up?” Ji Feng picked up the phone.
“I didn’t eat just now, I’m a bit hungry, I’ve opened a private box at a restaurant near the clubhouse, come and sit down!” He Hongwei laughed, “Let’s have a couple of drinks together!”
Ji Feng laughed, “I think you, Young Master He, are also bored with nothing, net playing these false games!”
“Oh, I’ll see you later then.” He Hongwei laughed.
“Mm, see you later!” Ji Feng smiled and hung up the phone.
“White spider, let’s go, let’s go eat!” Ji Feng said with a smile.
The white spider nodded slightly and followed Ji Feng very meekly.
……
“Older brother, let’s go one first!” In the restaurant box, He Hongwei lifted his gla*s of wine and clinked a gla*s with Ji Feng.
Tilting his head back and drinking the wine in the cup, Ji Feng asked, “Younger He, which exactly is your game here?”
“Heh!”
He Hongwei smiled and put his cup down, saying, “Older brother, just now there was Zhou Fei Fei around, a lot of things were not very good to talk about, so it’s just as well that we talk while eating.”
Ji Feng nodded and stopped asking, it looked like He Hongwei had something to say.
The two of them drank a few gla*ses, and then He Hongwei lit a cigarette and took two puffs before saying, “Older brother, I have to thank you for not breaking the news in the clubhouse just now. Otherwise, it would have been embarra*sing!”
Ji Feng laughed, “I’m not a long-winded woman!”
Of course he knew that He Hongwei’s words were referring to the matter of Fifi Zhou.
He Hongwei smiled and nodded, “Luckily you’re not, otherwise we wouldn’t even be able to drink tea just now.”
Just now in the clubhouse, Ji Feng actually directly said that Zhou Fei Fei was too stupid, which made He Hongwei’s back go cold. If Ji Feng pointed out on the spot that he had flown all the way to Jiangzhou to return a favor, then not only would Zhou Fei Fei be embarra*sed, but he would also be embarra*sed beyond measure.
“Mr. He, I’m curious, doesn’t your Tianyao Group work very well with the Zhou family? Why do I see that today you seem to be going your separate way from the Zhou family?” Ji Feng asked.
Chapter 1570
“Young Master He, I’m curious, didn’t your Tianyao Group work well with the Zhou Family? Why do I see that today you seem to be going your separate way from the Zhou family?” Ji Feng asked.
This made Ji Feng feel strange, the Zhou family was definitely considered a giant in the shopping malls around Jiangsu and Zhejiang, although it was inferior to the original Rongpeng Group’s status in Southern Guangdong, it was still considered a giant among private enterprises.
Therefore, for Tianyao Group, the Zhou family is also a very good arm, but how could He Hongwei suddenly want to return the favour to Fei Fei Zhou?
Hearing Ji Feng’s question, He Hongwei only smiled slightly and said, “What do you think?”
Ji Feng smiled and just glanced at him before sipping his own drink.
“You kid, those who don’t know think you’re already an old fart, how come you’re so calm at such a young age?” Seeing Ji Feng’s calm and steady temperament, He Hongwei couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.
For a person of Ji Feng’s age, and who came from a folk background, to suddenly become the first grandson of the Ji family, if it were anyone else, without a few years of sedimentation and accumulation, it would be difficult to have such a connotation and temperament, much less such a calmness.
Even if a person is born with a calm and steady character, but suddenly experiencing such a big change, from a wild boy growing up in Minjiang to suddenly becoming a young master of a big family, then even a calm and steady mind will not be able to hold on, right?
Normally, after entering the Ji family, Ji Feng would have to go through at least four or five years of sedimentation and incubation before he could become a standard son of the family and have enough deep connotation.
But Ji Feng was different, from the first time He Hongwei met him, this guy was just like that, calm, wise, and with extraordinary force!
He Hongwei has known Ji Feng for quite some time, and Ji Feng has never changed much, so if his previous composure and wisdom were all faked, no one could fake it for a year or two, right?
He Hongwei couldn’t help but feel that Ji Zhenhua’s wife was really a strange woman, who could teach Ji Feng to be so good in the private sector.
However, if he sat with Ji Feng, He Hongwei was more or less depressed.
Anyone who was with such a shrewd guy would be more or less stressed in his heart, and it was the same now.
He Hongwei shook his head and laughed: “Let’s put it this way, the Zhou family is indeed very influential in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but that doesn’t mean that the Tianyao Group has to cooperate with the Zhou family all the time, one family is the only one, it’s not in line with the laws of the market!”
Ji Feng frowned: “That’s not right, right? I think that it’s always better to support some giant enterprises, so that they can become multinational enterprises and become the leaders of private enterprises, so that they can improve their competitiveness?”
At this stage, what China lacks most is this kind of conglomerate that has great influence internationally and can become a leader at home.
This is true whether it is in national brands or in various trade and operations, which are extremely lacking on the part of China.
For example, in the retail industry, there are several retail giants such as France’s Home X Fortunes, while in the light industry, especially in textiles, clothing, and already many electronic products, Chinese companies have almost all been reduced to being the wage earners of foreign companies, the patents are owned by others, the brands are owned by others, and the Chinese side has nothing more than cheap labour.
Under such circumstances, if we do not support the giant enterprises, do we want all the enterprises in China to become the wage earners of foreign enterprises?
“Of course giant enterprises should be supported, private enterprises should also be supported, however, if a giant enterprise becomes the personal tool of some people, this is not right.” He Hongwei said.
Ji Feng frowned: “What do you mean?”
He Hongwei sighed lightly and said, “You understand the national situation in China, it’s not really difficult for private enterprises to survive, but if they want to grow bigger and stronger and eventually become a giant enterprise, it’s not that simple. In the eyes of many people, private enterprises are a piece of fat meat, no matter who wants to come and take a bite.”
Ji Feng nodded slightly, indeed, what He Hongwei said was true.
In particular, many officials, for the sake of face, point their fingers at private enterprises, outsiders guide insiders, visit them today, guide them tomorrow, how can private enterprises still develop?
In Ji Feng’s impression, there was once an extremely famous enterprise in China that wanted to build a building as an office building, which, at once, could be considered to have touched the sensitive nerves of local officials.
As a result, the officials went over to do the thought work of the person in charge of the enterprise for three days, asking them to build the building as high as possible, and even wanted to build the tallest building in the country, and even promised to provide loans and give various preferential policies.
But later, the loan was delayed, and the efficiency of these public servants in our country is naturally imaginable. As a result, that enterprise’s capital chain broke, and eventually it could only bear to cut its flesh, and that building eventually became a bad building, and that enterprise also went bankrupt.
It was a very dynamic and promising business, but in the end, it ended in failure.
This is a long sigh of relief.
The reasons for this are many, but the encouragement of the officials and the frequent work of those in charge of the enterprise definitely account for a large part of the reasons.
It was all about saving face!
Although some people did not blatantly ask for favours from the enterprises, the act of forcing the enterprises to build the tallest building was a disguised way of eating meat from the enterprises.
Not to mention the countless things that are being done to try to get benefits out of the business.
“So, at this stage, if you want to support private enterprises, the best way is to turn them into state-controlled enterprises! Or, to have the state take a stake in them!” He Hongwei said.
“Wouldn’t that make it easier for certain people to reach out and reap the benefits?” Ji Feng asked.
“Even if someone is corrupt, how much money can they corrupt?” He Hongwei waved his hand and laughed: “Besides, even if certain people are corrupt, then there must always be benefits to be corrupted with them, and that would require the proper development of the enterprise to be corrupt! If the business itself can’t even run, how can we still be greedy?”
“You are open-minded!” Ji Feng laughed.
“This is actually very simple, greed, that is because there is oil and water.” He Hongwei laughed, “Let me give you an example, you say, a rich city or a poor area, which place produces more corrupt officials?”
“Makes sense!” Ji Feng smiled and nodded his head.
After a pause he asked, “Then according to you, the top also intends to make the Zhou family a state-controlled enterprise?”
“Mm!”
He Hongwei nodded, “The top already has this intention.”
Ji Feng asked, “So you’re just going to keep your distance from Fei Fei Zhou and keep your distance from the Zhou family to prevent yourself from being involved in the trouble of the Zhou family’s restructuring?”
He Hongwei shook his head and laughed, “I’m the kind of person who tears down bridges over rivers? Let’s put it this way, the Zhou family has also got wind of it, so they want to take more advantage of this restructuring, but this is not in line with the original intention of the restructuring from above. Of course, that’s not the most important thing.”
Ji Feng lifted his wine gla*s and clinked it with him, smiling as he asked, “Then what is the most important thing?”
“I once owed a favor to the Zhou family, that’s true, but the Zhou family does things a bit ……” He Hongwei shook his head and smiled, “Forget it, let’s not talk about that, it’s not enough to make people angry when I mention it. ”
“Then let’s drink!” Ji Feng laughed.
The two of them drank a few more cups and a hint of wine flushed on He Hongwei’s face, so he dared not drink more and just smoked.
After a moment, he said, “By the way, Ji Feng, the business delegation from the Kerry country has come to Jiangzhou, right? If the Tengfei Group wants to cooperate with them, they’d better keep an eye out.”
“Hmm? How?” Ji Feng immediately asked.
“Those sticks from Kerry are no good, I think that 3D TV set that the Tengfei Group is launching will attract a lot of people, so be careful when the time comes and don’t fall into their trap!”
He Hongwei said, “If you want to cooperate, especially when signing contracts you must pay attention, especially, you can’t just use foreign words, because foreigners have many habits of speech, as well as the grammar of some foreign languages, as well as technical terms and so on, which are very different from ours in China!”
“In the past, I don’t know how many times our Chinese companies have suffered such big losses, especially the two countries, Rice and Kaitou, which are even more cunning and have screwed over many of our companies.” He Hongwei snorted coldly, “Now, the sticks have also learned this trick, you should be careful!”
“Sticks?” Ji Feng snorted coldly, “They’re just picking up on others too!”
Those Kerry people were like that, often doing ridiculous things, their narrow national borders and their rapidly expanding national pride seemed to have made the character of their countrymen a bit twisted.
In Ji Feng’s view, if the Mi Guos are a hungry tiger and the Boundary Tent people are a hungry wolf, then this Kree, in fact, is just a woebegone, or a fox.
In front of the Mi Guoshu and the Cavemen, the Kree could only be a wolf with them, or a fox with a tiger. But to say that the Kree themselves are strong …… Ji Feng shook his head, they are really not enough to worry about!
“But then again, whether it’s the Krebs or the Boundary Tent, or the Micronesians, they all deserve to learn from China in terms of fostering private enterprise!”
Ji Feng frankly acknowledged their merits, “Especially the Kree, their country is not strong, but they have a few super giants, like the Four Star Group, like the Daewoo Group …… In this regard, China is inferior to them!”
“Yes!”
He Hongwei nodded and said, “By the way, old brother, I heard that you clashed with the boundary tent people? Or is that something …… Sumida Group?”
“Well, there was a little conflict!” Ji Feng nodded his head.
“Then good, I have some conflict with them too, when you want to take a shot, call me together!” He Hongwei slapped the table, “F**k those brats!”
