Chapter 45 Betting on Fishing

In fact, we can understand it this way. The development of business is to constantly tap people's rigid and potential needs. If you dig it right, it will be a state of blowout, and then people who are open to money will flock to it and squeeze in.

However, apart from the first strikers and the smarter ones, those who follow suit can only play a supporting role in the end. Even if they get a share of the pie, they will eventually spit it out under the oppression of the strong.

Some followers may dismiss this, and even ask, as long as my products are faster, better and better than yours, why can’t I surpass you?

This question is as boring as those idle beasts asking if a sow can climb a tree.

Can sows climb trees? Theoretically, it is possible, but there must be a premise. The tree must be crooked and tilted at a certain angle, and at the same time, it must give enough stimulation to the sow. ' Driven, it's not impossible to climb a tree.

That is to say, the idea of ​​the follower is theoretically feasible, but has it succeeded?

Take country Z football as an example. Every time it reaches the final stage of the World Cup qualifiers, the national football team is still theoretically possible, but when does a miracle really happen? Not once! A theory is a theory after all.

MD, the national football team is almost becoming the villain of the book.

All in all, all in all, Yang Cheng is bound to win the Forum Publishing Company.

"Jason, I want to ask whether it's your intention or Yuanshan's intention to acquire Tribune Publishing Company." Eddie asked abruptly after quickly browsing through Yang Cheng's proposal.

"I personally purchased it with Yuanshan." Yang Cheng's words undoubtedly seemed to be a reassurance to Eddie.

If it was just Yang Cheng’s personal acquisition, he might strongly oppose it on behalf of the board of directors on behalf of the company. No matter how attractive Yang Cheng’s plan is and how wonderful the prospects he describes, Eddie cannot easily hand over Forum Publishing Company to a young man , this is not to despise young people, but he can't afford to gamble, or the Forum Publishing Company can't afford to gamble anymore, and can't stand the toss.

However, the entry of Yuanshan has increased the ability of Forum Publishing Company to resist risks in a disguised form. At least in a short period of time, the strength of Yuanshan Capital is booming, and there is no need to worry about bankruptcy. With Yuanshan's funds as a guarantee, coupled with Yang Cheng's plan , Tribune Publishing Company might rise again.

"Jason, please give me some time to think carefully, can I take this plan with me?" Eddie asked again in a pleading tone.

Yang Cheng could see Eddie's intentions, hesitated for a while and finally agreed, but he still solemnly reminded, "Yes, but you have to ensure the confidentiality of this plan, I don't want to see the plan written by me. Before the acquisition of Tribune Publishing, there were identical or similar applications on the market."

Eddie nodded again and again to express his understanding. He also knew the importance of creativity. Sometimes, if there is technology but no good creativity, everything is useless. But with creativity, good technology can be found anywhere.

"Okay, you go back and think about it carefully, and give me the answer as soon as possible. Now, let's go fishing and relax." Yang Cheng stood up, twisted left and right, and stretched his muscles and bones.

Eddie handed over the plan to the secretary for safekeeping, followed Yang Cheng to get up, and joked, "Don't look at me sitting in the office every day. When I was young, I was a good fisherman. I once lifted more than 600 catties of bluefin tuna. That's a big guy."

It seems that because of the plan, Eddie admired Yang Cheng a little, and he spoke more casually, and even talked about the glorious deeds in the past.

Yang Cheng didn't believe it, "come on, don't be kidding, it's no wonder that your bones are not dragged into the sea by bluefin tuna."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the boat was instantly ignited. Andrew even stood in the corner and laughed unscrupulously. Obviously he didn't believe it either.

Eddie feigned displeasure and made two bodybuilding moves,

Seeing that Yang Cheng still had that expression of disbelief, he immediately challenged, "Why don't we make a bet?"

Yang Cheng raised her eyebrows, "What bet?"

"It's about who catches the heaviest fish, and the time is one afternoon. It's a bet..." Eddie said halfway, and started to turn around the cabin, as if he was looking for a valuable artwork to make a bet.

In the end, Eddie stood still in front of an oil painting, raised his glasses, appraised it intently, pointed at the painting and said to Yang Cheng, "Just this painting?"

Yang Cheng looked at the old man amusedly, walked over, and also stood in front of the painting, which was a painting of the Three Graces by Sir Lawrence Amatedema.

In Greek mythology, the three goddesses of Meihui represent the three beauties with three qualities of charm, elegance and beauty. They are the daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, singers and dancers of the gods, and bring beauty and joy to the world. They are Aglaia, goddess of radiance, Thalia, goddess of inspiration, and Euphrosyne, goddess of joy.

This oil painting was bought by Liu Yun when she returned to Paris to participate in the Sotheby's auction last year. The turnover was about 160,000 US dollars. Passing by can appreciate it at any time, Yang Cheng felt Eddie's aggressive gaze, and knew that he could not refuse, his eyes rolled, his mind moved, and he had an idea.

"Okay, if you win, the painting is yours, but what if you lose?"

Eddie opened his mouth, wanting to say that if you lose, you lose, and I have no money.

But this is also a bit too shameless, this person, shameless once, there will be a second time, and it will become natural after a long time, just like a woman, once the legs are opened, there will be a second time and a third time, over time, When he got on the boat, he took the initiative to spread his legs. Eddie has always regarded himself as a literati, so he can't be so open-minded.

"What do you want? First declare that I have no money."

Yang Cheng is also drunk with this miser, if you don't have money, you can gamble, this kind of person must never enter the casino, it is a dead end.

Anyway, Yang Cheng didn't want his money, just like Grandma Wolf met a little white rabbit, she put her arms around Eddie's shoulder and said seductively, "Don't worry, I don't gamble, how about this, as long as I win, you will be responsible for convincing the board of directors How about accepting my offer with management?"

Eddie shook his head subconsciously, and before he could refuse, Yang Cheng continued, "Don't worry, think about it carefully, it's just persuasion, not getting you to agree, and you can't be the master of those shareholders. "

Eddie followed Yang Cheng's train of thought, and it seemed to be such a reason. He was attracted by Yang Cheng's plan just now, and there was no loss in helping him convince the board of directors. After all, the decision-making power was still in the hands of the major shareholders.

Yang Cheng has seen through these literati. On the surface, he is upright and upright, but he is also afraid of pain in his bones. The more he reads, the more he is afraid of death. How could there be so many traitors and fat translators during the Anti-Japanese War? A pole overturns a boatload of people, and many leaders who founded the country were high-achieving students, that's all. . .

Every time Zhengyi slaughters dogs, he is mostly a scholar with a heartless heart. This is absolutely true.

This Eddie didn't know what kind of stimulation he was, didn't he just say that he was bragging, as for being so unaffected? I also want to bet with Yang Cheng, I didn’t know to investigate his information before I came here. Yang Cheng is a famous fishing prince in New York. He has gone back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean for ten times and has never missed a shot. Eddie, an amateur in Los Angeles, competes with him in fishing , still want to win? Crazy, I can't even daydream.

The two of them had their own calculations, went down to the bottom deck and walked towards the stern. The Emerald had already turned on the zero-speed stabilizer and was floating steadily on the sea surface. Andrew came down ahead of time and unfolded the extension platform of the sidestring to the sea surface. Fishing tools such as bait are ready.

This is offshore, so tuna fishing is a no-brainer, and they haven't applied for a tuna fishing license. They still mainly use sea bass, salmon, snapper, and grouper, which are common species in the market.

The sea fishing here all adopts the bottom fishing method, hanging live squid as bait, and then hanging a lead pendant to let the hook group sink to the bottom of the sea.

Yang Cheng is quite proficient in this set of movements, throwing out the fishing line, and slowly sinking with the gravity of the lead pendant, he sat leisurely on the sun chair, humming a little song, and staring at the nearby Waiting for the prey of waterfowl, let Andrew throw some sardines and internal organs over, feed the group of little guys first, save a while to come and grab his prey, today is absolutely not to be missed.

Eddie next to him has his own set of ideas. Instead of using squid as bait, he skewered offal. Compared with squid, offal has a stronger bloody smell and is easier to attract large fish. If you are lucky, catching small sharks is not a problem either. impossible.

The Emerald stopped here for a purpose. The radar detected a school of fish activities nearby, and then started to lower the rod. Otherwise, you will not be able to catch fish until you die.

The weather is beautiful today, there is no wind, and the sea is as calm and blue as sapphire. Facing such a beautiful scenery, it is good to spend the afternoon quietly and leisurely, even if there are no fish hooked. Fishing is a process. important.

Yang Cheng relaxed, as if he didn't care about gains and losses, Eddie became more nervous, didn't sit on the chair, and shook the fishing rod up and down, so that the bait would also move in the sea, and he was still muttering something , I guess he prayed to his benevolent Lord and gave him a fat fish.

"Hey Eddie, take it easy, you will get bored soon, that beauty, please ask our chef to make two Big Mac burgers, oh yes, and cold beer." Yang Cheng Wearing sunglasses and crossing his legs, he said to the waitress that there is no food more suitable for fishing than hamburgers.

"Good sir."

. . . . . .

When the hamburger with cheese was delivered, Yang Cheng took a fishing rod, grabbed the double-layered hamburger and ate it, not forgetting to have a sip of cold beer, no wonder Alan loves hamburgers so much, "Shu Tan, Eddie, come and try , the chef's craftsmanship is good, the steak is juicy and the tenderness is just right."

Eddie glanced back at Yang Cheng's mouth full of oil, and didn't say anything. He continued to stare at the sea angrily, as if he could stare at the fish.
