Chapter 650: Chapter 650: A Very Pleasant Chat_1
Bai Xiaosheng was pulled into his own office by Tutor Huo Dong.
There, Bai Xiaosheng saw several small blackboards propped up, all written with the very things he and Mayor Ji Mingyang were striving to accomplish in Zhongjing—taking the lead with Zhongjing Media in the local media industry, working with the municipal government to forge "business card-style city" New Zhongjing.
"This is all the information I could collect, but of course, there are many critical details that I am unaware of."
"This is the economic model I have established based on your approach, still being perfected."
"This is a new pattern I personally deduced from these, still exploring."
"This is..."
Tutor Huo Dong was brimming with enthusiasm, showing Bai Xiaosheng his research one by one.
Bai Xiaosheng was full of admiration.
What is an expert! This is what an expert is!
Tutor Huo Dong had already developed a theory, created models, and gone even further, deriving new patterns from them.
Bai Xiaosheng was immensely impressed!
Once, he had been foolishly moved to tears by some experts’ speeches online, thinking that many were titulars without substance.
But seeing someone like Tutor Huo Dong, he then understood that genuine experts are incredibly formidable. They scorn lofty statements in the public eye, choosing to toil quietly in their realm. The heights they can reach are awe-inspiring and command respect!
"Mr. Bai, I invited you here this time because I wanted to discuss and exchange ideas with you about these matters. I wonder if you have the time," Tutor Huo Dong asked politely, his expression showing a hint of worry.
After all, Bai Xiaosheng was the general manager of a major corporation in the city, with a busy schedule, and he might not have time to engage in scholarly research with an old man like him.
"When it comes to learning, I always have time, and it’s an honor to exchange ideas with you!" Bai Xiaosheng said sincerely.
Tutor Huo Dong was delighted, "It’s my honor as well!"
The old and the young sat down on the office sofa, passionately starting their discussion.
Officer Feng Li finished her affairs and rushed over. Seeing them in deep conversation, she did not want to interrupt. Instead, as she listened by the side and felt enlightened, she simply took out a pen and started taking notes.
Seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s focused expression and animated demeanor when discussing issues, Officer Feng Li couldn’t help but be enchanted.
They say that men who concentrate on their work are the most attractive, and indeed it is true!
Bai Xiaosheng’s profound knowledge also left a deep impression on Officer Feng Li.
"He knows so much! It seems my own knowledge is still insufficient. I definitely need to work harder in my spare time!" Officer Feng Li thought to herself.
Bai Xiaosheng also had great respect for Tutor Huo Dong. If it were not for Red Lotus’ assistance, he would have found it difficult to keep up with the tutor’s pace.
Of course, Bai Xiaosheng’s own abilities were no less exceptional; otherwise, if it were someone else, even with a wealth of information, they might not know where to start or how to articulate it.
And so, after more than an hour of conversation, the old and the young still showed no signs of stopping.
"Teacher, Bai Xiaosheng, it’s already one o’clock. Aren’t you hungry? Perhaps we should eat something first," Officer Feng Li couldn’t help but remind them.
The old and the young were startled to realize so much time had passed.
"Haha, exhilarating, exhilarating! I lost track of time in my excitement. This meal is on me!" Tutor Huo Dong laughed heartily.
The teacher hadn’t been this happy in a long time, as if he’d grown several years younger! Feng Li smiled.
"I’m the one who has gained a lot, so I should be the one to treat you to this meal!" Bai Xiaosheng said earnestly.
Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t being modest; in exchanging ideas with such a sage, he naturally benefited a great deal.
How much one can achieve and how high one can climb is unrelated to age, it is connected to one’s perspective.
To elevate one’s perspective, one has to stand on the shoulders of giants.
This "giant" was someone like Tutor Huo Dong, who had reached the pinnacle in the field.
The reason why the President of the Greater China Region offered Tutor Huo Dong a seat as an honorary Affairs Officer right off the bat was precisely because of this point.
Huo Dong and Bai Xiaosheng were both insistent on treating the other to a meal, neither yielding an inch.
"How about I treat you two, okay?" Feng Li said with a laugh, interrupting them both, "One is my tutor and the other has given me many insights, may I please treat you?"
"No way!" The old and the young said in unison.
Feng Li was completely out of patience.
In the end, the three left the office and didn’t head to any luxurious place, but instead went straight to a decent little restaurant in the campus.
Along the way, countless university students were amazed to see the respected Dean of the School of Management, having a warm conversation with a young man as they walked.
Even the university president couldn’t enjoy such enthusiasm from Dean Huo!
Everyone was shocked, and they looked at Bai Xiaosheng with reverence.
Throughout the journey, Bai Xiaosheng received a multitude of admirations.
Even he himself felt that the glory he had lost in his college days had been entirely reclaimed today.
At the small restaurant, when the owner learned that Tutor Huo Dong had arrived, he personally greeted them, let them into a private room, and even cooked for them himself.
The dishes here were exquisite, and the taste was also exceptionally good.
Tutor Huo Dong even rarely drank some wine.
Midway through, the old man took a trip to the bathroom.
While seizing the moment, Bai Xiaosheng asked Feng Li with a smile, "Officer Feng, how did I score this time? You didn’t forget about my extra points, did you?"
Bai Xiaosheng actually still remembered this detail.
Feng Li wanted to laugh secretly but put on a serious face, pretending to be earnest, "Considering you knew the answers in advance, it really wasn’t fair to the others, so I deducted a part of your points..."
"How can this be!" Bai Xiaosheng was immediately shocked and angry, "I’m going to tell Tutor Huo Dong!"
This guy actually wanted to tattle.
With a mix of laughter and despair, Feng Li had to say, "This time, you scored the highest of everyone!"
Bai Xiaosheng then broke into a broad smile.
While they were chatting, the door to the private room opened, and the two thought Tutor Huo Dong had come back, but when the person entered, they realized it was Zhao Qianze.
Both were somewhat surprised.
"Officer Feng Li," Zhao Qianze greeted Feng Li with a smile before turning to Bai Xiaosheng, "Bai, I’ve been looking for you for a long time before rushing over."
"Miss Zhao Qianze, come in, have a seat. My mentor is in the bathroom, and he and the others are the main characters of this meal, I’m just accompanying," explained Feng Li with a smile.
It was a big taboo for an examiner to sit down for a private meal with a candidate, so she was worried Zhao Qianze might misunderstand.
"No need, I’ve just eaten. Officer Feng, you don’t need to explain, I understand. I’m just looking for Bai for a quick word, may I have two minutes?" Zhao Qianze asked Bai Xiaosheng with a smile.
"Sure," Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile and got up to go out with her.
Outside, Bai Xiaosheng looked at Zhao Qianze doubtfully and asked, "Zhao, what do you want to talk about?"
Zhao Qianze had a charming expression in her eyes but it also carried a hint of pleading.
"Bai, there’s a shop I own here in Zhongjing, if you have time these next couple of days, I would like to invite you over! And if possible, I’d also like to ask you for a favor!"
