Zhu Quanshou, general manager of China Unicom Donghai Branch, Xiuding, his naked head surrounded by a circle of sparse long hair. From time to time, a strand of hair slid from his forehead to fall on his nose. It was a bit funny. He was not old and was just over forty years old. He took his newlywed wife to today's celebration banquet. Zhu Quanshou was bald and had a normal appearance. The girl he liked when he was young had no share, so he made the intention of "not starting a career or getting married". It was not until he became the manager of China Unicom Donghai Branch that he found a partner to get married. It was a strange story within China Unicom, and after marriage, he was obedient to his young and beautiful wife.

Zhu Quanshou stood respectfully in front of Yang Rongping and Zhang Ke, with a serious attitude and similar flattery, as if he wanted to hear the truth from the conversation between Zhang Ke and Yang Rongping. Shao Xinwen stood by with his arms in his arms, and he talked little. Chen Jing also attended the celebration banquet of China Unicom. After all, Kewang Hi-Tech and Lianxin are one of the two major suppliers of China Unicom's customized mobile phone business, and they held a celebration banquet in Jianye. She would not be absent; but she deliberately wanted to keep a distance from Zhang Ke in public and greeted him, so she hid aside with Zijia. Zhang Ke did not see her much.

"I have two friends to introduce to Mr. Zhu..." After Zhang Ke finished speaking with Yang Rongping, he shook hands with Zhu Quanshou with a smile, and waved to Du Fei and Shi Xuebin to come.

Zhu Quanshou had doubted whether Zhang Ke remembered him before. He met him when he was in Jinshan and needed to contact Zhang Ke directly if there was anything. Yang Rongping personally took action on China Unicom. If Yang Rongping hadn't come to Jianye to participate in the celebration banquet this time, Zhu Quanshou wouldn't have thought that Zhang Ke would attend.

"Mr. Ke's friends are all talented people for a while. Who can't recognize someone who has a little knowledge in Jianye?" Zhu Quanshou said jokingly, shook hands with Du Fei and Shi Xuebin. "Our provincial company plans to develop chain Internet cafe business in Jianye and Huishan first, and we also ask Mr. Du and Mr. Shi for advice..."

Zhu Quanshou had some impression of Du Fei before, and was not familiar with Shi Xuebin, but since he appeared with Zhang Ke, Zhu Quanshou naturally would not ask about their identities in private, and this compliment was just right.

"I dare not take the advice. When I heard that China Unicom has the intention of building an Internet cafe, we are glad that we had transferred the Internet cafe business to Haisu Technology earlier," Du Fei said with a smile, "It's time for Haisu Technology to have a headache now."

"You should have a overall plan, right?" Zhang Ke asked.

Seeing that Zhang Ke seemed to be quite interested in this topic, Yang Rongping asked Zhu Quanshou: "Where is Xiao Cheng, why didn't I see her? Let her report to Ke Shao."

Zhang Ke was a little confused. Since the provincial company regards chain Internet cafes as an important expansion business to develop, Zhu Quanshou cannot be unfamiliar with it. He still needs to find someone else to report what to do? Seeing Zhu Quanshou taking out his mobile phone to call people, Zhang Ke stood there and waited. After a while, he saw Miss Cheng, a beautiful China Unicom whom he met in Beijing before the New Year, walked over from another box, looked at Zhang Ke with a smile and greeting, "I met Mr. Ke again, and I will ask for more care in the future."

"Ah, Miss Xiaocheng has transferred Jianye?" Zhang Ke asked in surprise, but looked at Yang Rongping.

"Young cadres should come down to exercise for two years." Yang Rongping explained. Although Cheng Yingxia is much older than Zhang Ke's, Yang Rongping did not feel any incongruity in calling her "Miss Xiaocheng", and others also think it is normal.

Zhu Quanshou said: "President Cheng is currently the deputy general manager of the provincial company's data and fixed business. He first developed a chain Internet cafe business in Jianye and Huishan, which was the proposal of Deputy General Manager Cheng..."

Ms. China Unicom happened to come to Donghai for training. She served as the deputy general manager in charge of data and fixed business and just proposed to develop chain Internet cafe business, and she entered the actual operation stage so quickly. Zhang Ke thought that maybe Yang Rongping should use Donghai Province as a test field?

"When will Miss Cheng be transferred to Jianye?" Zhang Ke shook hands with Miss Cheng in Unicom. He thought for a while, but still didn't remember what Miss Cheng's name was. It seemed that no one had officially introduced her name.

"After meeting Mr. Ke in Jinshan last time, I came to Jianye for training. I knew Mr. Ke was busy with his noble people and did not dare to disturb him. Please forgive me." Cheng Yingxia said, and obtained a business card to distribute it to Zhang Ke, Du Fei, and Shi Xuebin. "In the future, I will really rely on Mr. Ke to take care of him in Jianye."

Compared to the first meeting in Beijing, Ms. China Unicom Cheng's speech at this time gave others a more sleek feeling, probably because she had entered the role. Zhang Ke looked at the business card and found out her name. Then he held her business card in the palm of his hand and stood there without saying a word.

"Your plan for China Unicom Internet Garden, you will report to everyone. Ke Shao and others are experts in this field," Yang Rongping introduced Du Fei and Shi Xuebin to Cheng Yingxia. "Xiao Du, the Chuangyu Internet Cafe they founded at the time can be said to be the first chain Internet cafe company in China. Although Xiao Du, his interest in the young age, turned elsewhere, their experience and insights on chain Internet cafes are what you lack the most..."

"Mr. Yang praised the Internet cafe industry market in Beijing should be more lively than Jianye. Where can we have any useful experiences and insights?" Du Fei said modestly.

Shi Xuebin talked very little, and knew that this kind of occasion was not the time when he was active. He stood beside Shao Xinwen and listened to Yingxia's introduction to the plan for China Unicom's Donghai Provincial Company to develop a chain Internet cafe business.

Although they initially chose to conduct pilot projects in Jianye and Huishan, it can also be seen that they are ambitious and are determined to develop "China Unicom Network Garden" into a "full business center" to fully provide a series of service services such as Internet access, games, education, video, and IP phones. They need to dig gold and dig silver in the value-added business of fixed networks, which is even larger and more ambitious than the development plan they originally planned for Chuangyu Network Cafe.

Unicom will first build 15 to 20 large China Unicom Internet Garden flagship stores in Jianye and Huishan, and also plan to develop 120 to 160 franchised franchise stores in the two places.

Jianye and Huishan are still only a pilot project for China Unicom to develop fixed-line value-added services such as chain Internet cafes.

In the past, when Unicom withdrew from the Internet cafe industry in 2006, it was a feat of shutting down more than 2,000 China Unicom Internet cafes, which is quite memorable. Even if Zhang Ke doesn't remember when Unicom entered the Internet cafe industry on a large scale, he can still speculate that it is much later than now.

It is only two thousand years now, and the domestic Internet cafe industry has just risen. The Internet cafe industry players in various places have not yet risen, and national chain Internet cafe business companies have not yet appeared. It is still profitable for China Unicom to choose to enter the Internet cafe industry at this time, at least it will not even lose its pants like the past.

China Unicom's plan is good or bad, Zhang Ke will not evaluate it. After Cheng Yingxia finished introducing it, he only said: "Your ideas are really wonderful. I am looking forward to seeing China Unicom show its grand plans..."

Cheng Yingxia couldn't tell the truth about Zhang Ke's words. She looked at Yang Rongping, and her eyes fell on Zhang Ke's face again. She spent so much talk, not just to listen to his good words, but said half-true and half-falsely: "I don't want to just listen to Ke Shao's praise."

"..." Zhang Ke smiled and said, "What should Miss Cheng want me to say? Compared to you, I am an amateur."

Cheng Yingxia looked at Du Fei, Shi Xuebin: "You two can't pretend to be laymen, right?"

Women, especially beautiful women, always have to have some advantages. Cheng Yingxia's words seem to be resentful and angry made everyone laugh.

Compared with China Mobile focusing on developing mobile communication networks, China Unicom, which insists on market demand-oriented, is somewhat fickle and has changed. Even the mobile communication network plans to operate both G** and CDMA networks at the same time. In addition, China Unicom's tentacles also extend into landlines and broadband networks.

China Telecom and China Netcom are the two largest fixed network operators in China. How could they easily watch China Unicom expand and strengthen the fixed network value-added business and promote the development of China Unicom's fixed network? Also, the entry threshold for the Internet cafe industry is too low, and it will be full without a few years, and the profit margin will drop significantly; with the popularity of home broadband networks and computers, the Internet cafe industry will quickly become a sunset industry with lagging growth.

Zhang Ke did not think that the kind-hearted suggestions could please anyone at this time, but instead asked China Unicom to let go of its hands and feet at this time, which would be better than delaying it until 2003 or 2004.

Zhang Ke didn't want to say it too deeply, but Du Fei and Shi Xuebin and others' experience and ideas on developing Internet cafe chain business are still very beneficial to China Unicom, so Zhang Ke didn't mind them chatting with Cheng Yingxia.

After the celebration of China Unicom's banquet ended, Zhang Ke only met Chen Jing. He squeezed into a car with Shao Xinwen, Du Fei, Shi Xuebin and others to leave the hotel.

"Unicom's ambition is really great. It will be planned to organize eight to ten directly-operated flagship Internet cafes in Jianye at once, and develop 80 to 100 franchise Internet cafes," Du Fei said, "It will probably make Jingdian and Hongxin feel some pressure..."

"It may not be possible. Their main goal is to add new stocks in mid-May. No matter how fast China Unicom is doing and how much one-time investment is, their chain Internet cafe business in Jianye will not be very large-scale before mid-May." Shao Xinwen said.

"If their additional issuance plan fails in mid-May, it will work." Zhang Ke said with a smile, "Haisu Technology has compiled colorful lies in chain Internet cafes, e-commerce, and integrated circuit manufacturing. The chain Internet cafe industry has entered the era of competition ahead of schedule, which will at least help investors realize in advance who the chain Internet cafe business cannot bring long-term generous returns to... lies must always be exposed one by one."

Zhang Ke, Du Fei, Shi Xuebin and others got off the car in front of Xuefu Lane and asked the driver to take Shao Xinwen back. He asked Du Fei and Shi Xuebin to go in first, and waited until Chen Jing drove past the entrance of the alley, got into her car, and turned to the wooden house by the lake.

The news that China Unicom Donghai Province will make a large-scale entry into the chain Internet cafe industry in Jianye and Huishan did not arouse Yan Wenjie, Lin Xue and others' vigilance. They use Haisu Technology as a one-time use and have not carefully planned a long-term development plan. As long as the new stock issuance can be successfully completed in mid-May, the work will be completed; if Haisu Technology has the value of reuse in the future, it will not be too late to plan it well.

Without substantial obstacles, China Unicom is one of the six major basic operators in China. The speed of running a chain Internet cafe in Jianye is faster than expected. In mid-April, on the north side of the Youth Apartment, the front of a newly built five-story commercial building next to the front of the Music Academy was surrounded by the green curtains used for the building. The curtains were also hung with large slogans and patterns of "China Unicom Internet Garden Xuefu Store".

The extension of Xuefu Lane and Xuefu Lane is now worth a lot of money. The Conservatory of Music forced a building to be built into the wall of the college to rent it for profit. They had previously said that this building would be used to open a shopping mall, but they did not expect to snatch it to Unicom Donghai Branch. Before that, there were only two Internet cafes under Chuangyu on Xuefu Lane, and Unicom Net Garden Xuefu Store was the third, which was considered to be a direct competition.

During this period, Jiang Minzhi, who was still holding a pipa and half-covered, had already come to the East China Sea to take up his post.

Since Jiang Minzhi was temporarily the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and was not in charge of his job, he was quite low-key in dealing with people in Donghai Province, which made the political scene in Donghai seem calm. Until April 26, the central government officially agreed that Tao Jin, who was under the age limit, resigned as secretary of Donghai Provincial Party Committee, appointed Li Yuanhu to replace Tao Jin, and removed Li Yuanhu from his position as governor, and Jiang Minzhi was acting as agent. Although Tao Jin also served as the position of director of Donghai Provincial Adult, the power alternation of Donghai Province was basically completed. Just when the Donghai Provincial People's Congress convened a meeting, Tao Jin would resign from all positions in Donghai.

Jiang Minzhi also appeared at the opening ceremony of the East China Sea Business Leaders' Annual Meeting and the East China Sea Business Management Forum on the night of that day. This was his first public appearance in Donghai. Twenty days have passed since he came to Jianye.

Zhang Ke had no interest in this kind of cocktail party. His uncle Zhang Zhifei, Chen Xinsheng, Shao Zhigang, Tao Xingjian, Zhou You and others were invited to Hongyuan Construction, Ida Group, Century Jinhu Real Estate, Xiangxuehai, Xinguang Paper and other companies, and in the end, his uncle Zhang Zhifei, Shao Zhigang and Tao Xingjian could take time to attend. Zhang Ke did not even receive a formal invitation letter, and there were not many other provincial business elites who knew or knew him. However, this was Jiang Minzhi's first public appearance in Donghai. Although he did not receive a formal invitation letter, the invitation call from the organizer's Provincial Economic and Trade Commission specifically called the administrative office in Jinhu in the afternoon, so Zhang Ke was not inconvenient to avoid such cocktail party. Although the organizer did not explain, it might be that under the intentional or unintentional care that the Provincial Economic and Trade Commission called the invitation call.

The Donghai Provincial Business Leaders Annual Meeting is a grand event for private entrepreneurs in Donghai Province. Although it was only the first, it started preparing as early as mid-year last year. Jiang Minzhi chose to publicly show his first public appearance at the annual meeting of business leaders who are gathered by private entrepreneurs, perhaps because he wanted to change the outside world's impression of his previous conservativeism.

Zhang Ke did not walk with his uncle Zhang Zhifei and others. Their goal was too great. He just wanted to attend quietly, meet Jiang Minzhi, and then quietly withdraw. Even if Jiang Minzhi had no intention of meeting, it didn't matter, just let him know that he was attending. In order to avoid being too bored, he specially pulled Du Fei up.

According to the person on the invitation list of business leaders' annual meeting, Du Fei is fully qualified to attend the annual meeting. The organizer called him to ask if he had time before sending the invitation letter. Du Fei refused the first time, but unexpectedly he had to pull Zhang Ke over to take care of him.

"Oh, this kind of cocktail party is a little fun to gather." Du Fei and Zhang Ke stood in the corner next to the cold dining table. Zhang Zhifei, Shao Zhigang, Tao Xingjian and others were all chatting around. Xie Hanjing, Xie Yi, Lin Xue, Wang Haisu and others also appeared at the cocktail party.

"Who can pour me a glass of champagne?"

Du Fei looked up and saw a beautiful girl wearing a rose-red low-cut evening dress coming over and looking at them. He was about to complain to Zhang Ke that he should not wear this suit. Even if he wanted to wear this suit, he should not stand behind the cold dining table. In less than half an hour, he misunderstood the staff of the cocktail party several times. The girl glanced at Zhang Ke who was bent down to pour wine and said, "Did you thank me together with the enthusiastic sending someone to send me to Jinshan Airport last time?"

Only then did Du Fei realize that the girl in front of him was the daughter of the governor, but he didn't know who the young man next to the daughter of the governor was a slightly taller figure than him.

"It's just a matter of raising hands. Miss Jiang would be too disgusted if she wanted to say "Thank you." Zhang Ke handed the champagne to Jiang Mei.

"Hello, I am Jiang Mei's friend Xue Minglou. I have heard of your name for a long time," the young man next to Jiang Mei took the wine glass, shook hands with Zhang Ke, and said with a smile, "Jiang Mei is too willful. If Uncle Jiang knew that she asked you to pour her wine, she would definitely scold her." He smiled at Du Fei and said, "I know you too. I have heard of Dongda Chuangyu at Peking University, and I feel that my four years in college have been wasted."

When Du Fei saw Xue Minglou saying that Jiang Mei shouldn't let Zhang Ke help them pour wine, he didn't stop him in advance, and took the initiative to take the wine glass. I wonder if he knew that he could not stop Jiang Mei's willfulness, or did he also want Zhang Ke to pour wine for them? He heard his tone of speaking, he seemed to be quite close to Jiang Mei, and he was thinking about which big boss in the central leadership or former leader or the Central Military Commission's surname was Xue.

Zhang Ke didn't mind at all, so he poured another wine and handed it to Jiang Mei, poured a glass of wine for himself and Du Fei, and said with a smile: "It was such a rude thing to throw Miss Jiang into the car last time. This is my apology..."

"..." Jiang Mei took the wine glass, pursed her lips slightly, and said, "My father is in the Lingzhi Hall on the second floor. I heard that you are here, so I specially asked me to come over and ask you to have a discussion."

"I'm not familiar with this place, so I'll ask Jiang Xiaomei to lead the way," said Zhang Ke, and waved to his uncle Zhang Zhifei, asking him and Du Fei to accompany him to meet Jiang Minzhi.

Jiang Mei looked back at Du Fei and said nothing: Others called him to meet in the hall, and they all excitedly left the others away, but Zhang Ke pulled Du Fei and Zhang Zhifei together. Xue Minglou followed behind, and he knew what Zhang Ke's move meant. It was not that Jiang Mei's father met him, but that the two of them took this opportunity to meet.

Jiang Minzhi had an intersection with Jinhu during his tenure as deputy director of the State Economic and Trade Commission, but this was the first time Zhang Ke saw Jiang Minzhi. He was as thin as he saw on TV. His face was thin and his eyebrows were very wrinkled. He looked at Zhang Ke and the others walking in with a serious face and showed a rare smile, saying, "When I got off the East China Sea, I asked people who should see him first. Everyone said that Ke was young, and we officially met today..."

"Please call me Xiao Zhang, or Zhang Ke, or you won't dare to show your face in front of Governor Jiang in the future," Zhang Ke smiled and shook hands with Jiang Minzhi. "I still want to find a chance to meet Mr. Jiang when I came back from Xinting. I should have the opportunity to meet Mr. Jiang in Jianye in the future, right?"

"... Jiang Mei's grandfather told me to ask me to meet you and ask you to visit your home when you pass by Beijing." Jiang Minzhi asked everyone to sit down and recognized Zhang Zhifei and Du Feilai without any fault.

Today was just a polite meeting, and the topics we talked about were also discussed in general. Perhaps it was because Jiang Minzhi was eager to change his image and said a lot of good things about private enterprises all night, which made Zhang Ke quite puzzled: Did Jiang Minzhi quickly transform into a pragmatist when he took office in Donghai, or would he pretend to be conservative?

There was another ceremony for Jiang Minzhi to come and say goodbye to the reception. The staff came in to inform him that Zhang Ke, his uncle Zhang Zhifei, Du Fei and others followed Jiang Minzhi out of the private room. Coincidentally, Lin Xue, Wang Haisu and a few people walked out of the small hall next to him. Jiang Minzhi saw Wang Haisu and greeted him enthusiastically: "There are many talents in the Dongda University in recent years. You are one. Haisu Technology is currently the number one technology stock in China. You must continue to work hard and create glory."

Zhang Ke almost believed that Jiang Minzhi didn't know that Wang Haisu was just a puppet in the hands of Yan Wenjie, Lin Xue and others. He didn't want to go up and join in the fun. He shook hands with Lin Xue and Wang Haisu in a fake fishy way. At this time, the phone vibrated and helped him get rid of the siege.

Du Fei endured his disgust and shook hands with Wang Haisu and Lin Xue. When he turned around, he frowned when he saw Zhang Ke answering the phone, but there seemed to be a very faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He didn't know what was going on, so he showed this expression.

Rather than saying that Zhang Ke's expression was strange, it was better to say that Zhang Ke's every move could touch people's nerves. Everyone turned their heads to look at the expression on his face, and Wang Minzhi even showed a look of inquiry.

"It's nothing. The antitrust game between Microsoft and the US Department of Justice seems to have undergone new changes. A small thing that is lighter than a straw has happened. A federal judge in the United States cannot control his mouth and told the media that he has obtained new evidence that can prove Microsoft's monopoly behavior. Some small fluctuations occurred at the opening of the US stock market..."

"Kumho's business tentacles are still very long. He has dealt with Microsoft. At this time, he also needs to care about Microsoft's stock price..." Jiang Minzhi said with a smile. He did not realize how critical the matter Zhang Ke was. Zhang Ke's actual meaning was not to say that this matter was as light as a straw, but to say that this matter was very likely the last straw that triggered the situation to reverse!
Chapter completed!
