The closing ceremony speech concluded.
Banquet.
Eating, drinking, it was incredibly lively. Glasses clinking, with smiles, so sincere, so not so sincere, but Tang Qing didn’t care. In life, it’s enough to be your true self most of the ti.
After all.
It’s not easy for anyone.
"Boss Tang, co visit Inner Mongolia when you have ti."
"Definitely."
"Boss Tang, drop by when you can."
"Okay."
"Boss Tang, thank you for investing in our province, we hope for your continued support."
"No problem."
"..."
Tang Qing.
Remained the most dazzling figure at the annual eting. His business empire stood like a towering tree, visible to all who looked up. His na shone brightly, and no one knew where his limits lay.
After the al.
The award ceremony began.
This ti, there were two awards: the Top Ten Economists with the Most Contribution over Thirty Years of Reform and Opening Up, and the 25 Most Influential Business Leaders of 2008.
Old Wu.
Won the award with the highest number of votes.
"Clap, clap, clap!"
The audience applauded.
Everyone gave their sincere respect. These people personally participated in the economic miracle over thirty years and helped establish the basic frawork. The previous generation planted trees, and the later generations enjoy the shade.
Then.
The business leader awards were presented.
First.
"The 2008 Business Leader Awards, the first award is the Lifeti Achievent Award. Now, who is it? I won’t beat around the bush. The winner of the 2008 Business Leader Lifeti Achievent Award is."
"Tang Qing."
The host’s voice rose several pitches.
"Clap, clap!"
Warm applause.
Although.
This is a non-official award.
However.
It signifies great recognition of an entrepreneur by the industry. This award only has one winner each year, which considers net worth, social contributions, industry status, corporate reputation, etc.
Private enterprise.
Central enterprise.
All are within the selection scope.
On stage.
A woman in a cheongsam gracefully carried a trophy over. In the spotlight, Tang Qing accepted it. It was his first ti receiving this award. The annual eting only awards a person once, which is quite rare.
A routine.
Award speech.
"Thank you, thank you to the organizers. This award is heavy, it’s a form of recognition and also a responsibility, reminding to stay true to my original aspirations and not lose direction, progressing with the tis in the future."
Not long.
Just two sentences.
At first glance.
This won’t do. Tang Qing is the headlining guest. Many are watching, the host said:
"Boss Tang, this is your third ti at the annual eting, right?"
"Yes."
"What are your thoughts?"
"Very good, the annual eting provides a communication platform. I’m sowhat reclusive and lazy, and it’s only during this ti each year that I can communicate with many predecessors and elders, learning and growing."
Below.
The entrepreneurs were helpless.
Learning?
Does Tang Qing even need to learn?
Self-taught really. In business, they all have to learn from Tang Qing. His IQ, EQ, and abilities have been fully verified, making others feel like their lives were wasted.
Moreover.
As he said, Tang Qing is genuinely lazy and doesn’t join in the excitent usually. Claiming to be attending classes, a reason hard to refute, makes one respect him more.
Schooling.
Being studious.
Related to education, impossible to get angry over.
"Boss Tang, you’ve ntioned more than once that there is no crisis in Huaxia and that the economy will soon improve. In such an environnt, could you give a piece of advice to the vast majority of small and dium enterprises?"
The host said.
Hearing this.
Tang Qing thought for a mont and said, "The essence of business is the exchange of value. If the value you create appreciates, you can exchange it for more profit. If I had to give advice, it would be: surpass the present."
"Well said, surpass the present."
The host highly praised it.
"Boss Tang’s words are thought-provoking."
"The hardest part is not surpassing others but surpassing oneself, surpassing yesterday’s self, surpassing the self of the previous mont. Over ti, when you look back, you might find yourself standing at the peak."
The sa words.
If said by a passerby, few would rember.
If said by Tang Qing, many would rush to rember.
"Thank you."
"Boss Tang, lastly, is there anything you would like to say to everyone?" the host said.
Tang Qing smiled.
"Finally, I’d like to make a small advertisent. On the 12th, the Smart Space Industrial Park will officially operate in the Shanghai Stock Market. If you have ti, you’re welco to visit, and we will certainly host you graciously."
This park.
Similar to ’Damo Academy.’
However.
More expansive.
Basic scientific research, applied research, technology conversion, commissioned R&D, cooperative R&D... It’s a comprehensive business technology research and application center, similar to Zhiya Institute of Science.
Therefore.
These people may all be collaborators.
After listening.
Everybody present showed interest. With a five billion investnt, unparalleled in private enterprises, many were worried over a year ago when the project was initiated, such as ho appliance manufacturers.
Gree.
Haier.
Midea.
Hisense.
Changhong.
A bunch of companies, all massively expanded their R&D departnts, doubling their scale. The effects were significant, but costs were higher, making shareholders unhappy, but there was no choice.
Not adapting.
If Tang Qing’s businesses caught up, surpassing them would be even harder. He’s a formidable competitor, with an industry and personal influence that can easily disrupt traditional manufacturing.
Launch a product.
Soon.
Rely on the trust of other Tang Qing products to gain a considerable market share. They have no doubt about this, as Tang Qing’s reputation is built on doing the best.
Young!
An idol of the younger generation consurs.
Charismatic!
Countless won would chase after buying.
Ability.
It’s said that many of the products under him were designed by Tang Qing himself. His second uncle Tang Kai’s electric car was almost entirely designed by Tang Qing. One man, rivaling ten design departnts.
Darn it.
Such a competitor is truly disheartening. This ti, let’s see if they can cooperate, asking Tang Qing not to delve into their industries, or at least collaborate to make money together, achieving a win-win situation.
"Clap, clap!"
Amidst applause.
Stepping off the stage.
"Congratulations."
Beside him, Ren Zhengfei smiled.
Tang Qing smiled.
This award was originally supposed to go to Ren Zhengfei this year, but Tang Qing’s arrival changed history. His brilliance was too much. Although Huawei’s achievents were remarkable, this year still wasn’t as bright as his.
By next year.
It’s likely Ren Zhengfei will get it.
Soon.
The 2008 25 Business Leaders Awards began.
At first glance.
None are simple.
Besides private enterprises, there are also several central enterprises, such as CMB, CNOOC, China Steel, Sinochem, COFCO, and China Mobile’s leaders. Due to the Lifeti Achievent Award, Tang Qing wasn’t included.
Among them.
The father of hybrid rice, Old Yuan, is also one. He’s the honorary chairman of Longping Hi-Tech, rarely attending events himself and often having people accept in proxy. His position no longer needs investnt.
No shortage of funding.
To ask for money.
ntion a figure, the higher-ups will surely approve. However, this year he attended in person. Recently, the desert reclamation project of the Oasis is being piloted in Beijing, and accelerated experintal fields are now arable.
As it happens.
He requested a piece of land near Beijing, responsible for a project close by.
