Rebirth: Super Banking System - Chapter 2303 - 2123: Annual Meeting Opening
Chapter 2303: Chapter 2123: Annual Meeting Opening
December 5th.
Saturday.
Early morning.
The venue for the annual meeting was bustling with activity, with all major media outlets present. Although such an annual meeting might not have much breaking news, the attendance of so many big shots was newsworthy in itself.
“I heard that XX will come this time, two big shots at once, that’s rare.”
“Indeed!”
“…”
“I heard Tang Qing will record ’Dialogue’ again, I estimate that tomorrow night’s viewership will definitely skyrocket, Tang Qing has way too many fans.”
“That’s true.”
“…”
The most anticipated person is still Tang Qing. In October, Hurun estimated nearly $400 billion, and in November, Forbes estimated $420 billion.
Astonishing!
Plus, with his reclusive lifestyle, even getting a recent photo of Tang Qing could garner decent clicks, and the clothes and shoes he wears are bound to see a sales surge.
Nowadays.
Imitating Tang Qing has become a habit.
No choice.
Too dazzling.
Initially, Sheng Tang Group’s ’exclusive custom’ for Tang Qing signified that such items wouldn’t be sold to the public, leading to numerous counterfeiting workshops.
Quality varied greatly.
Later on.
People advised Sheng Tang to make them themselves, ensuring good quality, a bit expensive was fine, the worst was buying something only to be infuriated after a couple of wears.
Thus.
After consulting Tang Qing, Sheng Tang incorporated these clothes into mass production, and each time they sent them to Tang Qing, they would also begin selling them.
Once Tang Qing appeared in public.
Suddenly.
The sales went through the roof.
Gradually.
This also became a stable profit source for Sheng Tang. Even if a piece only sold 100,000 units, at thirty a piece, it would still bring in millions in revenue.
…
Suddenly.
Someone exclaimed!
“Tang Qing’s car!” The large entourage was very eye-catching.
Afterwards.
They saw Tang Qing stepping out of the car.
Click!
Click!
Click!
A flurry of camera flashes, as it was the only time they could freely take photos; ordinarily, they couldn’t even see him, making people feel helpless, like a distinguished lady.
Alright.
After all, he’s wealthy.
Willful!
Walking through the lobby into the conference hall, many people were already there, hundreds of them, and as Tang Qing entered, the lively atmosphere momentarily came to a halt.
Like an infection.
Everyone turned to look in unison.
“Tang Qing is here.”
“Still so young, when I was his age, I was just an apprentice in a workshop!”
“…”
Many people come every year, reminiscing, this was Tang Qing’s fourth visit, the first time his net worth was just tens of billions, the second time hundreds of billions.
Third time.
Two trillion RMB.
Now.
He’s already moving towards three trillion, so fast it’s dizzying, his growth is somewhat overwhelming, everyone could only look up to him.
Of course.
While Tang Qing’s net worth, in the private enterprise sector, is the sum of the last 500, it doesn’t mean Tang Qing’s subsidiary companies’ total value is their sum.
Not that exaggerated.
After all.
Many companies’ shares are dispersed, but just calculating personal wealth, it’s rather discouraging, making people wonder: are we all getting older?
It shouldn’t be.
But.
Tang Qing’s face seemed to narrate this fact.
…
Along the way.
Tang Qing greeted many people, having been here so many times, though not very familiar, they had crossed paths and had drinks at the annual meeting banquet.
After leaving.
“He actually remembered my name, as expected of Tang Qing!”
“Impressive!”
“…”
Privately, everyone gave him high praise, even if they couldn’t become friends, being able to remember their names made them feel respected.
This proved.
They weren’t just Pedestrian A.
Front row.
A spot reserved for Tang Qing, many familiar faces, well-known scholars, foreign enterprise executives, state-owned enterprise leaders, and government officials, all major guests were present.
Being able to come here.
Meant having a certain industry status, many state-owned enterprise big shots and real power figures gave face to the “Enterprise Leaders Annual Meeting” by personally attending.
No other reason.
They had connections.
The organizer of the annual meeting, backed by Economic Daily, a vice-department level unit, directly under the State Council, managed by the Central Propaganda Department’s central media.
Otherwise.
Such a large scale wouldn’t be possible.
Look.
No less than ten at the ministerial level were present at the scene.
…
Below the stage.
Tang Qing crossed one leg over the other.
Watching the stage.
The crowd was making their final preparations, and today’s opening ceremony host was the one who interviewed him for two hours two days ago on “Dialogue”.
Chen Weihong.
In the past life.
Tang Qing often watched his shows, many economic forum hosts were him, the big shots he interviewed were countless.
Very professional.
“Hi!”
Seeing him, Tang Qing waved his hand and continued familiarizing himself with the process, though such occasions weren’t live TV broadcasts, they could still read their scripts.
But it’s always better to be familiar.
“Boss Tang, I heard your airplane is going for a test flight, could I come to see it then?”
“Sure.”
“Can I go?”
“Yes.”
“…”
Tang Qing’s aircraft test flight wasn’t a secret, many were interested, but few dared to ask to see it, only a few familiar ones did.
Chatting.
Soon.
The opening ceremony started, same as previous years.
First.
The magazine president.
Second.
Economic Daily representative.
Third.
The government representative.
Position, well, half a level higher than a minister.
Fourth.
Then the foreign guest, the Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations via remote link, not present in person, after all, the United Nations is not an economic organization, distance is too far.
Finally.
The private enterprise representative.
Who?
Of course, it was Tang Qing.
“Next, we invite Tang Qing.” The host announced loudly. No need for a position introduction, because it wasn’t necessary, the name Tang Qing spoke for itself.
“Clap clap!”
Below.
A burst of applause.
Coming on stage.
Looking at the over eight hundred pairs of eyes below, with a slight smile, “Thank you, thanks to the magazine for having us here for our annual gathering to share our thoughts.”
“Last year.”
“We talked about the crisis, fortunately, we emerged from it as fast as possible, the entire commercial environment wasn’t much affected.”
“And this.”
“Led to the theme of this annual meeting—The Huaxia Path of New Business Civilization. Why were we the first to emerge, simply put, we walked the right path.”
Coming up.
Tang Qing applauded first then spoke.
Moreover.
It wasn’t nonsense, unless there was an uncontrollable cause leading to an economic depression, Huaxia’s resistance to such so-called global economic crises is strong.
When foreign trade fails.
Turn to domestic demand.
Subsidies.
Going rural.
Tax reduction.
Consumption vouchers, it’s not hard to get through.
If that doesn’t work.
Infrastructure.
Infrastructure.
Infrastructure.
Saying it three times because its impact is tremendous, a trillion-dollar project ignites the entire industry chain, with upstream and downstream profiting, benefiting the entire industry.
“Here, what I want to emphasize is that in such an environment, adherence to business ethics ensures that the Huaxia path can proceed healthily.”
“Previously.”
“Many know, some products have domestic and foreign trade versions, the latter has better quality than the former, but the price is the same.”
“This isn’t good.”
“Moreover.”
“…”
“Returning to the essence of business, it’s still about creating value, in my opinion, in the new business environment, we not only have to create value but also lead in value.”
“Quality.”
“Intellectual property.”
“Innovation.”
“Let enterprise value influence social value and integrate into a broad highway.”
