The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 241: Founding a sect, full firepower
In late December 1983, Wang Duoyu was giving a lecture in the lecture hall of the Mathematics Department of Harbin Institute of Technology.

"I just walked around here and noticed that many people are using factorization to solve this problem, right?"

"To be honest, this is the first time I've come up with such a simple question and shared it with you in class. In the past, you always asked me. Haha, I know you all passed the assessment."

"Logically, your abilities aren't bad, and your brains should be very fast. However, some of you use factoring, and some convert these equations into functions and then take their derivatives. Haven't you heard of Cardano's formula?"

The so-called Cardano formula is actually also called the Cardano formula. The translations in different places are different, but they are all formulas used to solve cubic equations.

Zheng Baodong and other students in the genius class suddenly felt a little superior, while Mai Zili and others had indeed never heard of such a solution.

Western mathematics is indeed awesome. It is common sense that academics have no borders, but people do have national boundaries.

Therefore, our ancestors proposed the strategy of learning advanced foreign technology in order to defeat them.

"Student Zheng Baodong, please come up and explain the Cardano formula to everyone."

Zheng Baodong, who was called, walked up to the podium very excitedly and began his "lecture".

Wang Duoyu rarely calls others to teach in his place, because many students don’t understand what he is talking about. Calling students up would just make them laugh.

Wei Yuanchao and other students in the gifted class couldn't help but curl their lips when they saw this scene: He is worthy of being my uncle, he is giving Zheng Baodong a back door.

The fact that Zheng Baodong's uncle is Professor Wang Duoyu is no secret in the gifted class.

Although Wang Duoyu has not given Zheng Baodong any backdoors until now, just some one-on-one explanations or a few words of advice at the dinner table are enough to make Zheng Baodong far ahead of other students in the gifted class.

Not everyone can have this kind of treatment.

The Cardano formula is used to solve a cubic equation of the form x3+px+q=0. Its derivation process consists of four steps: equation standardization, variable substitution, solution process, and substitution back to the original variables.

"Equation standardization is to convert the cubic equation to be solved into a standard form, such as x³+px+q=3. If the equation is not in this form, it can be converted to standard form by appropriate variable substitution."

"Variable substitution introduces a new variable y, which changes the equation to y3+py+q=0. This step is to simplify the subsequent calculation process."

"The solution is relatively simple. Let y = up / (3u), and then substitute this expression into y3 + py + q = 0, which gives an equation for u. After further simplification, we can get an equation for u3."

"Solving this quadratic equation gives us two solutions for u3, and then cubing each of these solutions gives us three solutions for y."

"The final step is to substitute the three solutions for y back into the original variable x, obtaining the three solutions to the original equation. This is the entire process of Cardano's formula."

After Zheng Baodong finished his explanation, Wang Duoyu smiled and applauded actively. Thunderous applause instantly rang out in the classroom.

Zheng Baodong blushed and lowered his head in embarrassment. He heard his ninth uncle asking him to go back to his seat and sit down. Before he even sat down, he heard his uncle say:

"Students in the genius class at Harbin Institute of Technology all know the Cardano formula, but some of them don't use it well. Zheng Baodong, please pay attention to the class."

"You all assume x = a - 1 / a, but then you find yourself unable to solve it?"

"Because making such a substitution won't help you solve this quintic equation at all, it's completely useless. Furthermore, the number of terms will likely increase because the quartic and quadratic terms won't cancel each other out, and there will even be additional terms. Is that right, Mr. Zheng Baodong?"

Zheng Baodong, who was named this time, had a very red face. He had just been given a sweet treat, but now he was hit by a big stick. This uncle is really not a good person at all.

Wei Yuanchao and others frowned when they heard this. How should they solve this problem?
"Let x = a - 2 / a, and replace x in the original equation. Then, rearranging it, we get a to the fifth power minus a to the fifth power 32, minus 4, which equals 0."

王多鱼一边讲解，一边在黑板上已经写出了一道公式：a^5-32/a^5-4=0
其实就是将x=a-2/a带入之后，再利用二项式的展开，消掉了其他的次数，就可以得到了a^5-32/a^5-4=0。

At this point, many people can solve the problem.

So, it's that simple.

When the people in the audience saw Wang Duoyu solve the problem so easily, they couldn't help but nod in admiration.

Although everyone knows that Wang Duoyu's ability is far more than that, the solution of such a fifth-order equation can stump everyone. It can only be said that they still have a long way to go on the road of mathematics.

"Okay, everyone is awake, right? Come on, let's continue."

Wang Duoyu doesn't care what everyone thinks. He is just thinking about how to teach everyone this mathematical tool.

Two papers on the geometric Langlands conjecture have been published so far. Wang Duoyu does not plan to publish the third paper. If Shing-Tung Yau and his team fail to derive it within the next three months, he will definitely publish it.

The fourth and fifth articles will be published later.

In order to win the Fields Medal in 1986, Wang Duoyu has already started planning.

The Langlands Program was not proposed by Wang Duoyu, but Wang Duoyu was able to derive this grand unified theory of mathematics and even complete most of the work involved.

In the history of mathematics, there are actually not many most powerful gods of gods.

Archimedes, Newton, Euler and Gauss are all well-deserved great gods because they all created a branch of mathematics, or even more than one branch of mathematics.

These gods of all gods are equivalent to Zhang Sanfeng, who founded the Wudang sect. They are very powerful.

For example, Gauss, a German mathematician, is known as the Prince of Mathematics. He has made very important contributions in number theory, algebra, statistics, and partial differential equations. He proved the prime number theorem, created the Gaussian plane in complex function theory, and has important applications in astronomy and geodesy.

There is also the American mathematician John von Neumann in modern history. He is known as the father of computers and the father of game theory. Just these two titles show his status in the history of mathematics.

In his early years, von Neumann was engaged in research in operator theory, resonance theory, quantum theory, set theory, etc. The computer structure model he pioneered has not deviated from this framework even in the 21st century.

He later created game theory, and almost all subsequent scholars enriched and improved the school he founded.

Many top mathematicians have proved conjectures and formed theorems. For example, Wang Duoyu proved the Fermat conjecture and formed the Fermat-Wang Duoyu theorem, which is quite different from the founder of the school of mathematics, John von Neumann.

Shing-Tung Yau also proved the Calabi conjecture and formed the Calabi-Yau manifold. He is the founder of this manifold. He also solved important scientific research results such as positive mass females. However, he is far inferior to Wang Duoyu.

Not to mention Smale, he only proved the process of five dimensions and above in the Poincare conjecture. In the end, it still depends on Wang Duoyu to complete the subsequent four-dimensional, three-dimensional and capping steps. Whoever can solve one of them can get a Fields Medal, and Wang Duoyu directly proved all three.

Therefore, the Fields Medal that Wang Duoyu received in July this year has a very high gold content, which is one of the reasons why the medal is made of pure gold.

After all, Wang Duoyu not only proved the Poincare conjecture, he also verified and derived the ABC conjecture and Fermat conjecture.

He holds three theorems, which is why he is called the Emperor of Mathematics.

Throughout the 20th century, the greatest mathematicians include Grothendieck and Michael Atiyah, who are still alive. If we also count those who have passed away, we also need to include David Hilbert, Bertrand Russell, John von Neumann and others.

Wang Duoyu today is equivalent to Bertrand Russell, but not as good as John von Neumann, who founded the school of mathematics, let alone being on par with top geniuses in the history of mathematics such as Gauss, Euler, and Newton.

Wang Duoyu also wants to become such a person and become a master in the history of mathematics.

This is not worshipping foreign things, because these theories do not have national boundaries. Once you learn them, they are yours, while mathematicians themselves have national boundaries.

If learning advanced Western science and technology is considered worshipping foreigners, then we should just close our country to the outside world.

If Wang Duoyu wants to become a founding master of mathematics, he must learn from people like von Neumann and make rapid progress in mathematics.

Of course, this is a very long-term goal. Considering his current age, he will be able to continue working in mathematics for another thirty or forty years.

He wasn't sure if his brain would still work as fast as it does now after he turned fifty, but he would definitely keep moving forward.

There is still a lot of mathematical work that needs him to explore and promote one by one. The most important work now is the Langlands Program.

In the blink of an eye, it is already January. In other words, it is now 1984.

On the evening of New Year's Day, the Wang family's relatives once again came to Wang Duoyu's villa for a dinner. This time, there were more than 30 people, more than the previous times.

Zheng Baoyin has not returned and is still abroad. I heard that he is in Japan. He is working hard to open up new markets.

Therefore, at this time in the study, the only two people reporting to Wang Duoyu were Wang Jianchao and Wen Shixuan.

After less than half a year, there has not been much change in the Brabus Watch Factory, and Wang Duoyu believes that the revenue data is still half-dead.

Because he earns money in RMB and doesn't make a single cent of foreign exchange, Wang Duoyu doesn't care much about the revenue even if it is high.

In comparison, the development of Red Star Steel Plant still surprised Wang Duoyu a little.

From its establishment in May 1983 to New Year's Day 1984, almost seven months have passed. There are now more than 200 workers, and a thermal power plant, oil boilers, gas boilers, etc. have been set up. It can be said that although it is small, it has all the necessary facilities.

After understanding the situation clearly, Wang Duoyu encouraged them with a few words and then walked out of the study.

At the dinner table, Wang Duoyu looked at Wang Meili and her sister, picking up some food and eating, while saying:
"Meili, Xiaohe, you two sisters have to be careful. It's New Year's Day now. At the end of the year or the beginning of next year, I will send you to Japan based on your situation."

"So, in the next twelve months, you must continue to work hard and try to improve your spoken Japanese and other skills. Don't make any more mistakes."

Upon hearing this, the two sisters nodded repeatedly.

But at this time, Wang Yumin couldn't help but say:

"Uncle Jiu, do you think I can do it? I'll go over and help Eleventh Aunt and the others take care of the children."

Wang Yumin is Wang Jianchao's younger sister and the daughter of Wang Duoyu's third brother.

Hearing her words, Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"No need. Your Eleventh Aunt and the others' children will stay in China to be raised. After they go to Japan, they won't stay there very long. They'll be back in five or six years at most."

In fact, the distance between Tokyo and Ice City is very close, and the straight-line flight distance is only 1,600 kilometers. At that time, Wang Duoyu will ask the civil aviation agency to apply for a direct flight from Ice City to Tokyo, and then the transportation between the two places will be very convenient.

Such a short distance, about the same as flying from Beijing to Fuzhou, is it far?
Not far at all.

Moreover, the current reform and opening-up development speed far exceeds the original time and space, so applying for a direct flight is not a difficult thing.

"Ah? Brother, doesn't that mean we won't be able to see the children often?" Wang Meili panicked when she heard that.

At this time, the two sisters had not yet realized that the reason why Wang Duoyu wanted to keep their daughters in the country was not to keep them as "hostages", but simply to have them come back to Bingcheng from time to time to report to him on the situation in Tokyo.

He wasn't worried at all that the two sisters would run away with the money or do something behind his back. Not to mention that they didn't have the courage to do so, even if they did, they didn't have the brains to do so.

With Wang Duoyu's intelligence, he could easily tell the difference by just flipping through the account book.

After all, those objective data cannot be falsified, such as the prices of goods and housing in Tokyo, which absolutely cannot be falsified.

The data may seem very difficult and dizzying to others, but in Wang Duoyu's eyes, it is just elementary school mathematics.

The other relatives of the Wang family at the dinner table paused for a moment after hearing this, and then continued to eat, but the noise was much quieter.

Every time we come to Wang Duoyu's house for dinner, although it is very lively, as long as we talk about serious things, relatives like Wang Yumin, Zhao Jianguo, etc. will all prick up their ears and listen attentively, a hundred times more than when they were studying.

"Well, you're not going to Tokyo to sightsee, you're going to work, so what's the point of taking your daughter with you?"

Wang Duoyu said lightly:
"We'll discuss the specific arrangements later. Anyway, I won't let you stay in Japan for six months or a year. You must come back often."

"Okay, nothing's confirmed yet, let's talk about it later, why rush?"

"Maybe you won't be needed there by then."

what?
When the two sisters heard this, they were stunned.

The other relatives of Old Wang's family were also shocked when they heard this, but it seemed that this was really possible. They could only say that no one could guess what Wang Duoyu was trying to do, so they could only concentrate on eating.

After New Year's Day, life returned to normal again.

At this time, Harbin Institute of Technology has entered the final exam season, and Wang Duoyu also finished the four-month course on January 5th.

It took four months, and a total of 147 students attended his class, which mainly covered two proof papers of the geometric Langlands conjecture, the proof paper of the restricted Burnside conjecture, and the proof paper of the honeycomb conjecture.

After the course ended, the graduate school entrance examination had actually begun.

Mai Zili did not continue to stay at Harbin Institute of Technology, but returned to Fudan University.

"Old Mac, tell me quickly, what was it like attending Professor Wang's class? How much did you actually learn?"

As soon as he saw Mai Zili, Jiang Shoucheng couldn't wait to ask.

In the past semester, Jiang Shoucheng felt like every day was a year.

Because whenever he thought about Mai Zili staying in Harbin Institute of Technology, not only could he go to the Physics Department of Harbin Institute of Technology to attend classes from time to time, but he could also take Wang Duoyu's courses, he couldn't suppress the envy and jealousy in his heart.

Originally, Mai Zili applied to Fudan University as an exchange student for a period of six months.

After all, being able to pass the course assessment set up by Wang Duoyu is enough to prove that Mai Zili himself has good talent.

Fudan University had no reason to stop him, so it approved his application.

"I didn't learn anything. Didn't I always write to you before? Forget it, this is my note. Don't lose it, or I'll beat you up."

In order to avoid being bothered by Jiang Shoucheng all the time, Mai Zili decisively lent his notes to him.

At this moment, Qi Benan and Huang Yunlong, who were in the same dormitory, suddenly had their eyes lit up and expressed their desire to take a look at it.

"Just take it and make a copy. There's no need to argue like this."

Mai Zili was so helpless. After everyone discussed it, they immediately went to the school copy room to copy the materials.

When going to the copy room, Mai Zili also asked them about the postgraduate entrance examination.

"No, Old Mai, aren't you worried about your final exam? If you fail, you..." Qi Ben'an asked worriedly, but Mai Zili didn't care too much:
"I took the final exams for the Department of Physics at Harbin Institute of Technology. Although I only took three subjects, I think I should be able to pass them all. The exams at our school are probably a little easier than those at Harbin Institute of Technology, so I think I should be able to pass them."

Huang Yunlong was immediately shocked when he heard this and said, "Fuck, Old Mai, you are so awesome."

To be honest, they always thought that Mai Zili was the same as everyone else, but since school started in September, after Mai successfully passed the assessment and stayed at Harbin Institute of Technology, his fate seemed to have changed.

"Old Mai is so awesome! Damn, just wait and see! I'm sure I'll pass the postgraduate entrance exam at Harbin Institute of Technology this year, and I'll stay there."

Jiang Shoucheng is swearing, but it is not known whether he can pass the exam.

In the teaching building of the Department of Mathematics at Harbin Institute of Technology, Li Jianshu and Li Jun finally graduated. They did not continue to study for a doctorate under Wang Duoyu, but were sent by Wang Duoyu to study in the United States.

"Go there and learn more and think more. If you don't understand something, feel free to ask."

Wang Duoyu reminded.

Li Jianshu and Li Jun had previously taken the exam for his master's program. From May 1981 to January 1984, their study time was less than three years, or about two and a half years.

But enough is enough.

With the recommendation letters from Wang Duoyu and others, including Charles Fefferman, Li Jianshu and Li Jun both received scholarships from Princeton University and Harvard University.

In fact, it’s not that Wang Duoyu can’t continue to teach them, but that he should let them go out for a walk and have a look.

See more of the world and communicate more with the outside world.

Although theoretical mathematics doesn't necessarily require traveling so far, Li Jianshu and Li Jun didn't go to the United States to conduct theoretical mathematics research, but rather to study computer science and technology. Yes, the Nebula supercomputer needs talent, and Harbin Institute of Technology's computer industry needs a lot of talent.

In fact, at the theoretical mathematics level, we don’t need that many people.

If they are top-level mathematicians, Wang Duoyu will definitely continue to train them and will not let them go to the United States.

But how easy is it to train top-level mathematicians?

At present, Wang Duoyu can confirm that only Yang Nianzhen and Rong Guangxia still have a chance, while the probability of Yorks, Maxim and Bochers is higher.

Li Jianshu and Li Jun have published quite a few papers in the past two and a half years, but they are still lacking in quality. It is impossible for them to win the Fields Medal in 1986.

In this case, why not just 'release' them and let them go out and explore on their own? Maybe they will suddenly wake up on their own?

"Okay, teacher, we got it." The two nodded repeatedly. Although they were reluctant, they still had to part ways after all.

Yang Nianzhen and the others were very reluctant to leave, especially Yang Nianzhen, whose eyes were red.

They are both Wang Duoyu's students. They have been in the same office for two and a half years and have always had a good relationship.

Now we have to separate, and it is finally time for the song to end and for people to go their separate ways.

"I'm sending you a poem, inscribed in the capital's South Village: Last year at this very day, the face of a man and the peach blossoms reflected each other's redness. I don't know where the man's face has gone, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze. Classmates Li Jun and Li Jianshu, I wish you a safe journey."

Yorkz borrowed a poem by the Tang Dynasty poet Cui Hu to bid farewell to Li Jianshu and the other person, which immediately made Yang Nianzhen burst into tears.

Wang Duoyu was deeply moved, but he didn't say anything because he had already said everything he needed to say.

After seeing off Li Jianshu and Li Jun, Wang Duoyu came to Pioneer Technology the next day, January 9th.

After he finished the course and sent two students away, his work became much easier, and he finally had time to take a look at the Pioneer Technology project.

The field of domestically produced civil airliners has always been a pain point and a difficult one, because there are really none in the country at present.

Chengfei Manufacturing Plant and Shenyang Aircraft Corporation sound impressive, but they are military-industrial enterprises, not civil aircraft manufacturers.

Although Boeing is a manufacturer of both military aircraft and civil airliners, Chengdu Aircraft Corporation and Shenyang Aircraft Corporation are unable to manufacture civil airliners, so what can they do?

Shouldn’t Harbin Institute of Technology shoulder this heavy responsibility?

With Harbin Institute of Technology's current size, it can certainly support it, but any other institution or unit in the country really cannot.

After arriving at Pioneer Technology, Wang Duoyu took a look around and his face darkened.

At the beginning of last month, Wang Duoyu asked Liu Deben, who said that the project had been approved and the recruitment of personnel was almost completed, and only the aviation engine project was still just an empty shell.

At that time, Wang Duoyu thought that the remaining personnel could be completed before the end of December.

Now it seems that we are still missing dozens of people.

How can we carry out our work in this situation?
Wang Duoyu was very angry and went straight to the secretary's office, but Liu Deben was not there.

Or maybe Lao Liu is not in Ice City, but in the south. Wang Duoyu doesn't know what he is doing.

Since Lao Liu is not at Harbin Institute of Technology, Wang Duoyu can only go to Lu Gongliang to discuss this matter.

After arriving at the principal's office, Wang Duoyu met Lu Gongliang, who was busy reading a document. It was unknown what the document was, but Old Lu was reading it with great interest.

"Duoyu, you're here. Please sit down and have some tea."

"Plain water is fine. I don't want to drink tea today."

Wang Duoyu responded. He actually seldom drinks tea. Most of the time he drinks boiled water at about 40 degrees.

After the secretary left, Wang Duoyu exchanged a few pleasantries with Lu Gongliang and then got down to business.

Hearing this, Lü Gongliang shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"Duoyu, how can we have so many talented people? There aren't many aviation engine technicians in China, let alone the research institute. We're already very good at gathering a technical team of fifteen people. Don't expect too much."

"The remaining researchers can only be replenished slowly."

There are indeed very few technicians in the field of aviation engines in China, and most units rely on their own internal training, so this does not mean that Pioneer Technology can recruit whenever it wants.

In short, in short, just looking at the current situation, wait!

Otherwise, Harbin Institute of Technology will have to rely on itself to train relevant talents.

Upon hearing this, Wang Duoyu frowned and said, "Can't we attract talents by raising the salary level?"

"How can we attract them? Many companies are reluctant to let them go, and there are only about ten companies in China with talent in the aviation engine field. How can we find them?"

"Old Lu, solutions are invented by people. Do you still want Harbin Institute of Technology to develop? Why do I feel like you're a bit negative?"

Hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Lu Gongliang couldn't help but blush and began to stammer.

To be honest, he was really just slacking off.

Last time, Liu Deben and Ma Sijie reluctantly agreed to establish Pioneer Technology after being "tricked" by Wang Duoyu.

However, this manufacturer originally had no products, no technology, no talent, and no resources. Although its market prospects seemed broad, it was actually a dead end, and its competitors were extremely strong.

If we only look at the domestic market, then there is definitely no competition in the country. However, as a domestic aviation manufacturer, Pioneer Technology certainly cannot sell its future products only to domestic civil aviation companies, right?

If that were all, you would definitely lose a lot of money.

Looking at the current domestic civil airliners, there are only about 100 of them. Most of them are old aircraft from the Polar Bear Empire, and some are British Vickers Viscount aircraft.

Given this situation, the domestic civil aviation passenger aircraft market is almost zero. How can Pioneer Technology make a profit?

In this case, entering the international market and competing with international aircraft manufacturers such as Boeing and shell companies is inevitable.

However, these giants are veterans who have been deeply involved in the field of civil aviation passenger aircraft for many years. Their technology is very advanced, and their technical teams and production lines are very complete.

How to compete with others?

With such a huge investment, there is no way to see a return within five or ten years, so it is normal to deal with it passively, right?

In addition, since it is not a project led by Wang Duoyu himself, Lu Gongliang and others naturally will not pay too much attention to it. On the other hand, they have too many projects to pay attention to, so there is almost no time and energy left for Pioneer Technology.

This led to the current situation.

After taking a deep look at Lu Gongliang, Wang Duoyu also understood.

Although Wang Duoyu should not criticize the other party's way of doing things, and on the surface, the other party is the president of Harbin Institute of Technology and his leader.

But when it comes to the Pioneer Technology issue, Lu Gongliang and his team were indeed too perfunctory, which is not conducive to unity.

"Principal Lu, I think you have serious problems with your thinking. Since you're unwilling to promote cutting-edge technology, you can just tell me clearly. There's no need to say one thing to my face and another behind my back. If everyone does this, how can we carry out our work?"

Wang Duoyu directly exposed the other party's trick and put the matter on the table:
"I'm a straightforward person, so I'll be honest. Principal Lu, you used to be a mathematician. We should be rigorous, otherwise it would be difficult to achieve scientific research results."

"Regarding Pioneer Technology, let me make this clear. I need to see all the technicians in place before the Lantern Festival. If they can't be in place, I will go to Beijing and discuss this matter with the chief in person."

"HIT should have made a lot of money in the past 1983, right? Isn't it going to be the year-end summary meeting soon? I'm guessing we made a lot of money, too. After all, the Nebula supercomputing project I'm directly leading has already sold five supercomputers."

"Since our Harbin Institute of Technology enterprises can earn foreign exchange, please trust Pioneer Technology, it will definitely be able to do the same."

"And if our school leadership is all lip-service to this, then I'll discuss this with the headmaster. Perhaps by the time Director Li learns about this, he'll want to have some tea with you."

The last sentence is quite rude.

But Lu Gongliang could only endure it and bear Wang Duoyu's full firepower alone. To be honest, the former was still quite uncomfortable.

But now Wang Duoyu has grown stronger and has the qualifications to scold him. Who made him do nothing?
We are all smart people and can see any little tricks at a glance.

As for Director Li mentioned by Wang Duoyu, he is actually Li Rui, the former head of Harbin Institute of Technology and current director of the office of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building.

The Seventh Ministry of Machine Building is the superior leadership department of Harbin Institute of Technology, so if Li Rui really talked to Liu Deben, Lu Gongliang and others, the latter two would be so embarrassed that their faces would be thrown into the Pacific Ocean.

After leaving the principal's office, Wang Duoyu stood in front of the glass in the warm corridor, looked at the snow falling outside, and let out a breath.

Scolding the principal may seem satisfying, but this is not what Wang Duoyu wants at all.

Ugh!
When I returned to the villa in the evening, the little guy Wang Junhong was already rushing over.

"Dad, I memorized another poem today"

The little guy recited a poem to his father in a boastful manner and received praise from his father.

Wang Duoyu, who was originally in a bad mood, became much happier after listening to the poem recited by his son.

Liu Xiaoli, who was about to give birth, noticed that Wang Duoyu was in a bad mood, but she couldn't care about him at the moment.

Just at this moment, a person came to the door, it happened to be Zheng Baoyin.

"Uncle, I'm back"

"Hey, Baoyin, when did you come back?"

Seeing Zheng Baoyin, who looked tired, walk into the living room, Wang Duoyu asked in surprise.

"Well, I just came back today. Uncle, have you eaten? Is there any food at home? I haven't eaten all day."

At this time, Liang Xiufen had already spoken first:

"Cousin, go wash your hands and have dinner. I've already prepared the meal. Uncle Jiu just came back not long ago and is preparing to eat."

Liang Xiufen's husband is Wang Jianda, who is Wang Jianchao's second brother, so they are cousins ​​with Zheng Baoyin. After all, Wang Jianchao's father is Wang Duoyu's third brother, and Zheng Baoyin's mother is Wang Duoyu's fourth sister.

Zheng Baoyin was overjoyed and quickly said a few polite words. Before he finished speaking, he had already come to the kitchen to wash his hands.

When he came out, Wang Duoyu came out with a bottle of wine.

"Baoyin, drink with me today."

"Uncle, don't you rarely drink alcohol?" Zheng Baoyin was immediately surprised when he heard it.

Wang Duoyu smiled and said nothing, because Liu Xiaoli had already answered for him.

"You don't know, he went to Beijing in November, and not long after he came back, he received a box of Wuliangye."

"After he got this box of Wuliangye back, he treated it like a treasure. He only drank it a few times. Last time, on Junhong's birthday, he finished a bottle. He hasn't opened it to drink since then."

Liu Xiaoli was right. This box of wine was the one that Lu Yangui gave him when he went on a business trip to Beijing in November.

However, the wine had not been distributed at that time, so I asked someone to bring it back later.

Fortunately, it was not separated at that time, because when Wang Duoyu came back, the plane had an accident and had to make an emergency landing in the Songhua River. If it had been brought back by Wang Duoyu, it might have been broken into pieces.

This wine has been stored in cellars for more than 30 years, and it was well preserved and kept in ceramic jars. Of course, the taste of this wine is very good.

It is not an exaggeration to call it the finest fairy wine.

Since it is stored in pottery jars, it needs to be split and refilled in small bottles.

Because a pottery jar is a big one that weighs 60 kilograms, 100 kilograms, or even 300 kilograms, so of course it needs to be split into pieces.

"Oh, really? Uncle, I'm in for a treat today."

Zheng Baoyin's eyes lit up when he heard this, but Wang Duoyu said with a smile:
"Eat something first to fill your stomach, then drink later."

After a while, Wang Duoyu saw that Zheng Baoyin had already eaten a bowl of rice, so he started drinking.

At this time, Zheng Baoyin had already reported on his work in Japan.

Yuma Clothing entered the Japanese market in August. Before that, it had been conducting market research and had not launched any related plans.

Unlike entering the US market, Youma Clothing does not rent stores but purchases them directly.

Therefore, the investment is larger.

But fortunately, Uma Clothing still had enough funds, simply because in the past 1983, Uma Clothing still made a lot of money in the American market.

In the first half of the year, Uma Clothing's revenue was US$111 million, and the second half of the year was even more explosive, with total revenue exceeding US$163 million.

In other words, the total annual revenue in the US market in 1983 reached a staggering US$274 million.

Although most of the funds are still invested in purchasing shops and opening stores, the revenue data cannot deceive people, and the containers exported from the country every two weeks cannot deceive people.

The revenue in Japan needs to be calculated from September because the store did not officially open in August.

In Japan, the company's revenue data was US$2.3 million in September, US$3.7 million in October, US$5.2 million in November, and US$6.6 million in December.

In other words, Japan's total revenue is US$17.8 million.

In the whole of 1983, the total export revenue of Yuma Clothing was US$291.8 billion, which is rounded to US$300 million.

Such amazing data simply beats many companies.

Especially when entering Japan, all the Yuma clothing stores are the same. They directly purchase shops and rent them to themselves. Well, it's just a shell within a shell.

Although it is a bit troublesome to do this, it doesn’t matter. These are just preparations for the future.

"Uncle, aren't we opening stores in Japan too quickly? We already have over a dozen stores, and they're still operating at a loss, not yet profitable."

Hearing Zheng Baoyin's words, Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"You don't need to worry about this. Set the rent for the shop according to normal business logic. Don't feel any burden. Although it's a left-hand-right hand swap, I need you to play this big show well."

"Regarding the mismatch between Youma Clothing's revenue and profit figures, you will need to invest in advertising to attract traffic, especially in concerts, sports events, bus advertising, and movie placements."

"Japan is relatively advanced in this area. Take your time and don't rush."

Just as he finished speaking, Liu Xiaoli beside him suddenly turned pale and looked panicked.
