When meeting certain people, Lu Erjie was used to them asking him questions. Jiang Baili was no ordinary person either, and the questions he asked were exactly the same as Song Zhe's initial ones: his views on politics, military affairs, and the current situation, which he had already discussed in depth with Song Zhe. It seemed that he didn't have any unique insights, but considering his age, it was enough to make Jiang Baili look at him with new eyes. It's true that seeing is believing, and what he saw was even more amazing. Almost everyone's impression of Lu Erjie was that he was a once-in-a-millennium talent!
Jiang Baili was a learned man with many students. His prestige in the political, military, and cultural circles was higher than that of the second principal of Whampoa Military Academy. If one could get him as one's advisor, coupled with one's own strong abilities, the chances of his students joining one's side under his encouragement would be very high.
Lu Erjie had no intention of establishing his own kingdom. He had higher goals, but if he could dismantle the Kuomintang and spare the people from the suffering of civil war, or end the civil war sooner, it would be a blessing for the people, so that the future government would have more time to build a powerful China.
Despite being a wealthy heiress with extensive knowledge, Song Xue was a complete novice in front of Lu Erjie. Lu Erjie was shrouded in mystery, captivating everyone from head to toe. At the dinner table, Song Zhe repeatedly threatened Lu Erjie, demanding either a television or a car for him to drive. Song Xue found this amusing; she ordered the hotel to prepare some dishes first, then happily watched TV and drank red wine in Lu Erjie's luxurious Hummer. She was utterly blissful! She even claimed that women shouldn't interfere in men's affairs, but in reality, she was afraid her father would criticize her work in the military intelligence agency in front of Erjie. Of course, the main reason was that the television program was too captivating—Journey to the West! Wow! She had to finish watching it all.
“Teacher Jiang, I’m young, so I’ll be blunt. I’d like to offer you a job at our group. What are your thoughts?” Lu Erjie stared intently at Jiang Baili. Song Zhe also paused, waiting for his teacher’s response.
Jiang Baili pondered for a few seconds and then laughed, "I don't know how to do business!"
"Business is like a battlefield. Military and business are two different battlefields, but they are similar in some aspects. For example, Sun Tzu's Art of War, the most famous military treatise in my country, is not only useful in military affairs but also in business. Some major American entrepreneurs have business strategy departments that specifically hire retired generals as global strategic planners for their business empires. Business backgrounds are vast, and every investment is like formulating strategies and tactics on the battlefield. Although I haven't read many of Professor Jiang's theories, based on the remarkable achievements of your students in the National Revolutionary Army, I am certain that Professor Jiang is also a skilled businessman. Businessmen rely on courage and vision. Without strategic vision, one cannot make big business deals. Our Supreme Group has many talents, but we can never have too many. If we had a strategic talent like Professor Jiang who could devote himself to business, I believe we would definitely achieve remarkable results." Lu Erjie raised the glass of red wine in his hand.
“Brother Lu is right. Alas, it’s a pity that our teacher is proud and lives in poverty, yet he refuses to accept even the slightest help from us. As his student, I feel very ashamed. If our teacher could develop his talents in a nationally renowned large enterprise, I would wholeheartedly support it,” Song Zhe said excitedly.
“I partially agree with what Young Master Lu said. I, Jiang, have devoted my life to military research, but I really know nothing about business.” Jiang Baili was somewhat tempted, but she really couldn’t let go of her beloved career.
"I deeply admire Professor Jiang's dedication to a certain cause, but has Professor Jiang ever considered that our great nation of five thousand years has suffered from the ravages and invasions of foreign peoples for hundreds of years? Our people struggle daily to survive, living in dire straits. Foreign guns and cannons have caused us immense suffering and humiliation. Why? Because we have closed ourselves off from the world for thousands of years, using our boundless wisdom on internal strife between nations. Without strong economic and technological power, we simply cannot support our military. Look at our Supreme Group, which was the first large-scale conglomerate in Shanghai and even the whole country. My high-tech products sell well at home and abroad. Isn't that bringing glory to the country? How many people does my company support? Have you ever calculated what the government's tax revenue comes from? It comes from companies like ours. The money we make from doing business can support the country's various military and technological research efforts. My group invests hundreds of millions of yuan in high-tech product research every year. Why do I do this? We are an agricultural country, that's true, but we cannot stand still. Professor Jiang, where does the military's support lie? It lies in commerce!"
"Without an economy, how can there be a strong army? Without technology, how can we have weapons to deal with foreign invasion? We can buy them today, but what about the day after tomorrow, and the day after that? What if those countries that sold us weapons also attack us one day? You hold a high position in the government, but I'm sure this government will be overthrown by the people sooner or later. I hired Professor Jiang because I hope he can take charge of the technology research and development department of my Supreme Group and lay a solid foundation for our country's industry. This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people, and it's the fundamental goal. If you want to realize your ambitions, I have plenty of money to help you achieve them, instead of holding an empty title in a government department without any real power. Without real power, how can you talk about ambitions! You said you don't know how to do business, and I didn't ask you to do business. I invited you to take charge of my technology research and development team. Whatever you want, my research and development team can make it for you!" Lu Erjie blurted out what he wanted to say in one breath, speaking fluently and eloquently, which made Jiang Baili's heart flutter and left her stunned.
“Teacher, what Young Master Lu said is very true. I’m even tempted. Damn it, once the world is at peace, it wouldn’t be bad for me to go to the Supreme Court and find a job.” Song Zhe’s eyes shone as he nodded repeatedly.
"Without economic and technological support, we can only passively take a beating, and the foundation of industry is scientific and technological research and development," Lu Erjie said, adding fuel to the fire.
"Ah, what Young Master Lu says is absolutely right. How could I, Jiang, be so out of touch with reality? But..."
"What? Is it difficult for Teacher Jiang?" Lu Erjie sensed that Jiang Baili's tone had softened.
“What’s so difficult, teacher? We don’t need those empty titles. Just write your resignation to Old Jiang right away. I can’t wait to see you lead a powerful scientific team and develop some amazing gadgets. Look at the car that Young Master Lu is riding in. It’s supposedly bomb-proof. And that TV, I’ve never even seen one before. It’s really something. If we put this on the market, we’ll make a fortune. To be honest, teacher, I also have a bulletproof vest that Young Master Lu gave me. I’ve tested it. Handgun bullets can’t penetrate it. Young Master Lu said that’s the power of technology.” Seeing his teacher hesitate, Song Zhe quickly encouraged him.
"Oh!" Jiang Baili was even more surprised: "Is there really such a magical thing that even a pistol can't penetrate it?"
"That's child's play. My car is protected against submachine guns, pistols, time bombs, landmines, Professor Jiang. There are many more amazing things you can't even imagine. If you agree to become the head of my technology research and development department, I will introduce them to you one by one and broaden your horizons," Lu Erjie said proudly.
"Good!" Jiang Baili slammed his hand on the table, raised his wine glass, and said with great enthusiasm, "Since Young Master Lu thinks so highly of me, I will not refuse. Just as Young Master Lu said, let's move from one battlefield to another. Come on, let's have a drink!"
After the three of them sat down, Song Zhe laughed heartily: "That's good, kid, you can't treat my teacher badly."
“Just wait and see!” Lu Erjie turned to Jiang Baili and asked, “I heard that Teacher Jiang has five daughters. The younger ones can come to the school I run, and the older ones can come to work in my group. There are suitable positions for them.”
“Your school tuition is very high! I’m afraid I can’t afford it, haha.” Jiang Baili meant that Supreme Elementary School only admits students from poor families, and charges very high fees for the children of the wealthy. Although Jiang Baili currently holds an important government position, it is still somewhat difficult for her to support her large family.
"Professor Jiang, you're overthinking it. I won't accept any money. I've heard that your daughters are all very talented. I'm never stingy with talent. Let's settle it here. You should submit your resignation to Old Jiang as soon as possible. My science and technology team is waiting for you to lead it."
The three chatted happily. Jiang Baili was deeply fascinated by this amazing child. As the saying goes, "A thousand cups of wine are not enough when drinking with a bosom friend, but half a sentence is too much when talking to someone who doesn't understand you." The three chatted until late at night. When they got back to the car, Song Xue was engrossed in watching TV. On the way to the military camp, Song Xue insisted on taking the TV from the car home, acting as if she would give up if he didn't let her take it. Song Zhe secretly admired his daughter's actions and winked at her shameless behavior.
Left with no other choice, Lu Erjie made Song Zhe sign a confidentiality agreement. Song Xue, clutching the 14-inch LCD TV, got out of the car and ran off as fast as she could, afraid that Lu Erjie would change his mind halfway through. As she ran, she didn't forget to tell her father, "Dad, get him a car to drive around in."
Lu Erjie helplessly beckoned to Song Zhe, asking him to take the DVD and discs away, and then told him how to use them. If he didn't know how, he could call him. Song Zhe got a great deal and was naturally overjoyed. He didn't get a car, but he got a TV to watch. What an honor! Hahaha.
