Chapter 238 Luo Jiewei

Although the sound is loud, you will know that it is not from the Chinese. When Yi Ruoshui opened the door, he saw that he was indeed a tall, foreign manager wearing a suit and tie looking extremely refreshed: "Hello, I am Yi Ruoshui from Jiangdong Trade Department!"

The manager did not expect that Yi Ruoshui had brought two female companions, but he said very readily: "You are Mr. Yi Ruoshui from Jiangdong Trade Department, right? Our president wants to see you, these two ladies can go there together!"

Yi Ruoshui didn't expect that things would turn around and there would be a turning point. At this time, I would definitely be sincere in inviting myself to negotiate: "Where to go?"

"Sat Building, our president sincerely invites you and your female companion to have a face-to-face conversation!"

Sate Building is located on Jianguomenwai Street and is a top business office building in China. Many international companies have headquarters in China. Therefore, Jiang Yulian immediately said: "I said that as long as you persist, you will have a chance to win. Don't learn Chinese football and win in a tie. You can't give up at any time!"

Yi Ruoshui felt that this trip to the imperial capital was really thanks to Jiang Yulian's insistence: "If we can talk about it, Aunt Yulian will be the top priority, what is the name of this manager? Manager Tommy, hello, let's go!"

Manager Tommys brought an extended version of Cadillac luxury car to stuff Yi Ruoshui and his group in, and Xu Jingyi borrowed a crown through her personal relationship and followed closely. However, Manager Tommys didn't know why their president suddenly wanted to find Yi Ruoshui: "I guess our president has a very important business and wants to talk to Manager Yi!"

It took only a dozen minutes from Fangyuan Hotel to Sate Building. Tommys took Yi Ruoshui directly to the 15th floor where the headquarters in China was located. Yi Ruoshui walked out of the elevator with ambition and enthusiasm. But after only two steps, he felt something was wrong: "Ssa China Company? Is this Ssa Company?"

I had a very pleasant conversation with Manager Tommys just now. He even asked which foreign company was going to ask him to negotiate a contract, but when I saw Yi Ruoshui in SSA, I felt something was wrong. It was just that someone was guarding the elevator entrance: "Is it Mr. Yi Ruoshui from Jiangdong Trade Department? Welcome! I am Rogerwei!"

This is a standard American, but his Mandarin is already quite standard: "I am Rogerwei. I welcome Mr. Yi Ruoshui and Mr. Liu Yucheng to attend the annual meeting of the Tang Research Foundation in 1997. This is my invitation letter!"

Yi Ruoshui understood what kind of misunderstanding happened, and this was a huge mistake!

He knew that the Roger Wei was indeed the chairman and president of SSA, but the problem was that Roger Wei was not looking for him to invest in Starry Internet, but to submit an invitation letter to the Tang Culture Research Annual Meeting, or that his article on Tiansheng Ling and Liu Yucheng's article on Tiansheng Ling research was unanimously recognized by the academic community, so he was qualified to participate in the annual meeting of the Tang Research Foundation.

But although this is a misunderstanding, Yi Ruoshui was still extremely happy: "I am very happy to accept the invitation. Although I may not be able to attend this annual meeting due to personal affairs, I will definitely send a representative to attend and submit a heavyweight paper!"

Luo Jiewei was also very happy: "Heavyweight Tang History Paper? This is the level of Tiansheng Ling?"

Luo Jiewei's Mandarin is very standard, and he can't tell at all that he is an American. In fact, he not only speaks very well in Chinese, but also can read original classics that are difficult to read in the eyes of ordinary Chinese. What's more important is that he is the most successful business person among historical scholars and the first among successful rich people who understand history the most.

In this time and space, although his reputation in China is slightly inferior to Bill Gates and Jobs, he is not much inferior to these two IT experts. In fact, he is a small-cap Jobs and Bill Gates.

In 1981, he founded the famous SSA company alone, and until the next year he still had to share a secretary with other companies. By the time he first left SSA company in 1991, SSA's annual sales had exceeded US$200 million and was successfully listed on the Nasdaq, becoming the world's top software company.

For software companies in the 2010s, annual sales of more than US$200 million are still an astronomical figure, not to mention that in the 1990s, it is not an exaggeration to call him a small Bill Gates and Jobs. It is just that compared to SSA's chairman and EO, Rogerwei prefers the charm of the Tang Dynasty, and can even be said to be a super fan of the Tang Dynasty.

In 1985, Rogerwei visited Mogao Grottoes during his visit to China. At that time, Rogerwei was fascinated by the prosperous Tang Dynasty of Dunhuang cultural relics. Just as Jobs was addicted to meditation, Rogerwei became more and more fond of Chinese culture and art. Not only did he give himself the Chinese name Rogerwei, but he even resigned from his position as EO at the most glorious moment of SSA in 1991 and went to the Department of Art History of the University of Chicago to study for a master's degree in Chinese art history, and also founded the famous Tang Research Foundation.

This is a very tragic decision in business, and it also opened up the two-sided life of Rogerwei's tragic hero. However, now Rogerwei is ignorant of this. He is more concerned about how heavyweight Yi Ruoshui can produce in the annual meeting: "I really hope you can come up with a masterpiece of the Tiansheng Order level!"

Yi Ruoshui said frankly: "A heavyweight article like Tiansheng Ling is hard to come by. I just have a wonderful idea. I have never had time to find out before. Now Mr. Rogerwei gave me the courage. I am going to write a short article for everyone's opinions!"

Luo Jiewei was very satisfied with Yi Ruoshui's answer: "Mr. Yi Ruoshen and these two beautiful ladies, come to my office to have tea together. We can chat slowly. I am personally very interested in Mr. Yi Ruoshui's wonderful idea!"

Whether it is Xu Jingyi or Jiang Yulian, they know that SSA is at its peak in China's software industry. If Wangshan Computer and Starry Sky Computer are now considered large companies, then in SSA's eyes, they are just typical small and medium-sized companies.

The core business of SSA is the ERP business (enterprise resource plan), which can be said to be the highest-end and most advanced existence in the computer industry chain. Using the most typical example, we can illustrate how high-end SSA is. The company needs to pay a senior consultant to solve the problem by asking SSA to solve the problem by US$1,200, and the daily fee for application consultants is US$800. Such a daily salary is still higher than most people’s monthly salary after twenty years, let alone 1997.

Xu Jingyi had to make several calls for orders for more than a dozen computers, but the orders SSA fought for were at least one million US dollars. In the early 1990s, SSA had annual sales in the Chinese market of US$8 million, and now SSA's global sales have reached more than US$400 million, so they feel that it is a great honor to have the opportunity to contact Rogerwei.

Moreover, they also knew Luo Jiewei's infinite enthusiasm for the Tang Dynasty scenery, so they did not think that it was a waste of time to discuss the Tang Dynasty scenery between Yi Ruoshui and Luo Jiewei, but followed Yi Ruoshui into Luo Jiewei's office.

Luo Jiewei's office was decorated in antique and stylish. As soon as Yi Ruoshui entered the door, he saw a full of Tang and Song dynasty charm. However, there was also a gentle professor in the office. As soon as Luo Jiewei entered the door, he introduced him to Yi Ruoshui: "This is Professor Rong from the Imperial Capital University. He is now in charge of the "Tang Research" magazine under our foundation. Professor Rong, this is Mr. Ruoshui, the Jiangdong Trade Specialist who discovered Tiansheng Ling! These two ladies are Mr. Yi Ruoshui's female companions!"

Yi Ruoshui quickly introduced Xu Jingyi and Jiang Yulian to Luo Jiewei and Rong Xinjiang: "This is my investor, General Manager Xu Jingyi of Starry Sky Computer, this is our Starry Sky Internet to Jiang Yulian, Professor Rong, I am Yi Ruoshui, I am very happy to meet you!"

Luo Jiewei talked to Professor Rong about what had just happened: "I just communicated with Mr. Yi Ruoshui. Although he is busy with business, he may not be able to attend the foundation annual meeting in person, but he is preparing to submit a heavyweight paper to the annual meeting!"

Professor Rong is also very interested in this matter: "A paper at the level of Tiansheng Ling, then our Tang history community will explode again!"

Tian Sheng Ling really exploded the entire Tang history community. Although Professor Rong mainly engaged in Dunhuang documents, half of the Tang history community was talking about this Tian Sheng Ling, and he also personally read the paper in historical research. So he felt that Yi Ruoshui's attack this time must have the effect of being shocked by Shi Jingtian.

Yi Ruoshui immediately replied, "I dare not, don't call me Mr. Yi Ruoshui, just call me Yi Ruoshui. I am just a college student now, and I just have a wonderful idea. The main work of Tian Shengling's thesis is written by Teacher Liu Yucheng, and I just sign a name!"

Professor Rong immediately laughed: "A few days ago, I just attended a seminar with Professor Liu Yucheng. Professor Liu admitted that he was indeed responsible for a large part of the work, but Tiansheng Ling was the first student Yi Ruoshui to discover that the idea of ​​the whole paper was also provided by Yi Ruoshui, so Yi Ruoshui doesn't have to be modest!"

Speaking of this, Professor Rong became more and more interested in Yi Ruoshui’s so-called “wonderful idea”: “Has Yi Ruoshui discovered some lost books that have been passed down for thousands of years?”

Yi Ruoshui said seriously: "I attended the annual meeting of the Tang Research Foundation this time, and not both President Luo Jiewei and Professor Rong like Tang Shi, especially Dunhuang's suicide notes? I happened to have an immature idea."

The reason why Professor Rong was invited by Luo Jiewei to host the magazine "Tang Research" and received a huge amount of funds was his authoritative position in Dunhuang research. Therefore, Yi Ruoshui's words surprised him: "Student Yi Ruoshui, you want to make our Dunhuang academic community explode again. Say, I am mentally prepared!"

If I had said this, Professor Rong would definitely not think that a student in a college in economics and trade can make any earth-shaking discoveries. However, Yi Ruoshui was different. He had previously found the "Tian Sheng Ling" that had been lost in Tianyi Pavilion for hundreds of years. Now he found a Dunhuang lost book in a certain ancient book catalog. Yi Ruoshui immediately said: "Professor Rong has been awarded. Do you still remember the "Platform Sutra"?"
