Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

Zhang Dong was quite surprised by what the other party said.

"Brother, are you kidding me? You run a company and do business, what kind of business is it if you don't sell goods to people?"

“Brother Zhang Dong, I think they want to compete with you. They keep saying they want to buy your equipment, but I realize they're just a bunch of jealous people…”

"What? They really said that after they got there?"

Manager Li nodded: "That's right."

After a smile, Zhang Dong continued, "Manager Li, don't worry about it, just sell the goods to them directly."

"What? Sell to them?" Manager Li looked surprised. "Brother Zhang Dong, these are all out-of-town clients. Normally I don't get these kinds of orders from them. They must be your counterparts from various places who are participating in this trade fair."

"What they're doing is rather unethical, which is why I came to tell you."

Having understood what Manager Li meant, Zhang Dong patted him forcefully on the shoulder.

“Brother Li, I am very touched that you actually want to refuse to sell the goods to them.”

"However, my advice is that you must sell to others, otherwise, if you run a company but don't sell products, it will not be good for your company's reputation."

"Besides, even if you sell to them, can they produce products of the same quality as mine?"

Seeing Zhang Dong's confident and composed demeanor, Manager Li finally felt reassured and nodded.

"Okay brother, I came over to tell you this so you'd be aware of the situation. Since you want me to sell, I'll do as you say..."

"Otherwise, I'd rather not earn this money..."

After Manager Li left, Zhang Dong couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.

I never expected that I would make a friend like Manager Li after coming to Beijing. He was worried that his business would be affected, so he stopped selling goods.

It seems that I made the right choice in selecting Manager Li as my partner.

From the moment he readily allowed Zhang Dong to tour the production area, Zhang Dong sensed that Manager Li was a man of broad vision and responsibility.

Seeing Manager Li leave, Zhang Guangyao, though silent, was filled with shock and awe.

It is said that you reap what you sow, but Zhang Guangyao never expected that his own nephew would be taken to such extremes by Manager Li.

After all, businessmen are all about business and prioritize profit.

It seems this is what Chow Yun-fat meant by "personal charisma."

Suddenly, these words popped into Zhang Guangyao's mind...

After returning home, Zhang Dong focused on the jade carving company and started production in full swing, thanks to the orders he had received.

Although there were many orders, Zhang Dong had already instructed Li Danian not to rush things and neglect the quality of the products, but rather to pay more attention to the quality and substance of the products.

After all, users choose them because they trust them, and as manufacturers, they cannot betray that trust.

Next, the quality of the products they produce must be at least as good as, if not better than, the previous batch of exhibits.

Upon hearing Zhang Dong make this request, Li Danian was filled with mixed emotions.

This master carver's last disciple had previously witnessed the development of many jade carving companies, as well as their closure and bankruptcy.

The main reason these companies went out of business was the continuous decline in product quality and the constant cutting corners in the production process, because they always felt they weren't earning enough.

In the end, no one was a fool.

But the young man in front of him, who was also his boss, always had a clear understanding of what he needed to do.

Hearing Li Danian's remark, Zhang Dong smiled faintly.

"Put yourself in their shoes and think from their perspective. If producers could consider things from the consumer's point of view, they wouldn't be perfunctory with users, and they would do their jobs with care..."

"Mr. Zhang, your words about being dedicated to your work are excellent, and you've put them into practice, not just in words."

"No wonder we were able to get so many orders at this trade fair in Beijing. It's all thanks to your hard work."

Li Danian was still deeply shocked when he said these words.

Previously, he meant that simply working hard and being conscientious was already the best he could do, but Zhang Dong had taken his work to the level of being dedicated.

What does it mean to be dedicated? Being dedicated means being serious.

I remember a great man once said that the most frightening thing in the world is being earnest, and that's really true...

"Boss, there's one more thing." Li Danian hesitated.

Zhang Dong was somewhat surprised to see Li Danian's expression.

The master sculptor's last disciple was initially quite carefree when he arrived here, but after being influenced by him, he humbled himself, changed his attitude, and began to work diligently and conscientiously.

Zhang Dong could tell at a glance that he had something to tell him, but was hesitant.

“Master Li, just say what you want to say. You don’t know my personality.”

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, it's like this, another company has tried to poach me, wanting me to switch jobs..."

"What? Someone's trying to steal my girlfriend?"

Zhang Dong smiled, somewhat surprised as well.

“That’s right, more than a dozen companies came, but after hearing that you offered me such a high salary, several of them have backed out.”

"They didn't expect you to pay me such a high wage. There were even a few other companies that gritted their teeth and offered you even higher wages..."

"But I will not go to their company at all; I rejected them outright."

Zhang Dong was also surprised by what Li Danian said.

As the saying goes, there's no corner that can't be pried open, only a hoe that's not hard enough.

Zhang Dong still smiled: "Master Li, I thought you would agree to their request..."

Li Danian smiled awkwardly: "I also looked into it from the sidelines. Those companies that offered high prices were all poorly managed and wanted me to go there to improve the quality of their products."

"But the current state of these companies is, frankly speaking, a gamble. As bosses, they lack management skills and the determination to strictly control quality. They just rush in because they see that jade carving products are profitable."

“Starting a company is not something to mess around with; you should always stay true to your original intentions. But their purpose in starting a company is simply to make a fortune.”

“Companies like that won’t last long, so I rejected them without hesitation.”

Hearing Li Danian say that more than a dozen companies had sent people to poach him, Zhang Dong couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.

It seems that after their products stole the show at the jade exhibition in Beijing, countless companies are now eyeing them, hoping to catch up with them.

There are probably bastards like Wang Chengwu who will resort to underhanded tactics from behind.

However, these underhanded tactics can't be used openly...
