Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1131 – Master Lu returns to Beijing

“Hahaha... Master Lu, it’s been a long time since we met. You look like you had been living well.” Feng Yu gave Master Lu a hug. They had not met for a while.

“I am finally transferred back. It was not easy. I thought my job at the grassroots level will be easy, but... Without your help, it’s almost impossible to get any results.” Master Lu sighed.

Master Lu had assistance from Feng Yu and his family, letting him move up the ranks slow and steadily. His family helped to arrange for his transfer back to Beijing’s Party School. After he graduates, he will be promoted to the Bureau Director level.

It’s very rare for someone in their thirties to be promoted to Bureau Director Level. Master Lu will have opportunities to move up further. Most importantly, he will be the leader of his generation in his family. All eyes are on him.

Feng Yu laughed. “You had helped me a lot too. We are just helping each other out.”

“Yes... Oh, something happened to Meng Zhi’s family. Do you know about that? Luckily, I had stopped contacting him and did not get into trouble. Thanks for your advice in the past.” Master Lu sighed.

Feng Yu waved his hand. “Master Lu, stop talking about this. I am only a businessman.” Feng Yu knew that moron and his family will get into trouble a long time ago.

“Hahaha... you sound like some small-time businessman. You are the top businessman in China and the whole world. You can even meet the Kings of small countries easily if you want.” Master Lu laughed.

Master Lu will not treat Feng Yu like an ordinary businessman. Which businessman is as influential as Feng Yu? Furthermore, they knew each other for some time, and he knew if he wants to move up the ranks, he needs Feng Yu’s help.

Master Lu dares not to make Feng Yu his subordinate, but they can be friends. He needs to sincerely treat Feng Yu, and based on his understanding of Feng Yu’s character, he knew Feng Yu would return the favor.

Businessmen at Feng Yu’s level is very influential. If it is not because of Feng Yu’s age, his status will be the same as Superman Li.

“Master Lu, stop poking fun at me. So, have you decided which department you will be going in the future?”

These people from political families will be transferred from the Central Government and to the grassroots level frequently. Master Lu had just returned from the grassroots level. He should be transferred to some government agency as one of the committee members. Feng Yu wonders which department Master Lu will be transferred to.

When mentioned this, Master Lu is troubled. “My family offered me two choices. Enter a government ministry, or work in a State-owned enterprise. Working in a ministry is stable, and it’s hard for me to make any mistakes. But it is also hard to achieve outstanding results. Working at a state-owned enterprise can show results easily, but any mistakes might delay my promotion by a term. Personally, I would prefer to go to the State-owned enterprise, as it’s hard to work in the Ministry.”

Master Lu is worried. Suppose his promotion is delayed by a term, which is five years. In that case, he might lose the opportunity to move up to the future’s top position. That’s why he asked Feng Yu out today. He wants to hear Feng Yu’s opinions.

Although Feng Yu is not in the government, onlookers will have a calmer and more objective view of what is going on.

“What choices do you have if you are going to work in a State-owned enterprise?” Feng Yu asked.

“I have three choices. The first is to go to a newly set up State-owned enterprise, China Mobile. This company had just separated from China Telecommunications Corporation. Because China is negotiating to join WTO, they cannot have a telecommunications monopoly.”

“The second option is to join China Petroleum. Two years ago, China Hua Xia Petroleum Natural Gas Group and China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation underwent restructuring and exchanged some of their businesses. They separated their businesses by north and south regions.

“My last choice is China Railway Engineering Corporation Headquarters. They will be separated from the Ministry of Railways soon and will be operating independently.”

Feng Yu’s jaws dropped. Damn! These three enterprises might not be powerful now, but they will become giants in their respective industries.

These three companies will become one of the World’s Top 500 companies.

Everyone will break their necks to get into one of these companies, but Master Lu has the option of pick any one of them.

Having a strong family background is different!

“Master Lu, any of these three companies will yield fantastic results. The first is telecommunications, which is a core sector supported by the government. The second is the energy sector, which is also one of our country’s foundation. The last option is the infrastructure and transportation sector. This is also a sector with high potential. If I have to pick, I will not choose China Petroleum, as it had been set up for some time. All the good positions had been taken up. All you can do is routine work, which is similar to working in the government ministry.”

“The telecommunication sector, especially the mobile signal, will develop very fast. Mobile phones will be the main form of telecommunication in the future, and you can achieve results fast. More importantly, my company is also in this sector and can offer some help to you. The people in this company are those who are disliked and kicked out by their former leaders. However, you can use this opportunity to pull them over to your side.”

“China Railway Engineering Corporation... other than infrastructure is the core foundation of our country, just the investment in the traffic network by the government is an astronomical amount. Although it had been separated from the Ministry, there will not be any problems with their operations. But the cons of this company are its internal is already united. If you enter, you might not get any outstanding results.”

Feng Yu had hinted where Master Lu should go. If Master Lu can control China Mobile, then Aiwa mobile phones and Wind and Rain mobile phones will own the market share’s top two spots.

Although the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s leader is helping Feng Yu, it is still lacking compared to someone from China Mobile helping him.

China Mobile branches are the best location to sell mobile phones. Feng Yu and Master Lu can cooperate by buying an Aiwa mobile phone and getting a SIM card discount. The fees for SIM cards are very expensive now.

Also, there are no international auto roaming services. If you want this service, you must submit applications, and it is very troublesome. That’s why Feng Yu owns several phones with different numbers.

Feng Yu can at least introduce China Mobile to the US and East European Countries to sign agreements on auto roaming services. action

In the next few years, it will be the boom of China’s mobile phone users, and China Mobile will become the market leader of mobile services in China.

If Master Lu enters China Mobile now, he can easily get outstanding results within the next five years. He can easily move up the ranks.

At that time, Master Lu can choose to continue in China Mobile or switch to any ministries, as he had gotten his promotion.

Feng Yu’s hint is very obvious, and Master Lu got it.

“Brother Feng, I will discuss it with my family. If possible, I will join China Mobile. Hope you can lend me a hand in the future.”

Feng Yu laughed. “Of course.”
