1987: Sleepless Tonight

"We have to be clear about what the main goal is. In order to achieve this main goal, some conflicts can be put aside temporarily."

Everyone's bottom line is different. Some people's bottom line is their parents, some people's bottom line is betrayal, some people's bottom line is whether their own interests have been violated, and some people's bottom line is the scale in their own hearts, etc.

People with a bottom line are worthy of admiration. People without a bottom line are like those without faith. They may seem carefree and smooth, and may seem unscrupulous, but in reality they are very sad.

People must have pursuits in order to gain a sense of accomplishment and happiness. Once pursuits are gone, the meaning of life may no longer exist. Without the meaning of life, mental problems may arise.

Many depressed patients and many suicides choose to go to extremes because they find that they have no meaning to live.

When you find that you have a tendency to go to extremes, you have to establish a belief for yourself and take the initiative to find the meaning of living for yourself.

Lu Hao has more than one bottom line, but one of them is that if his opponent can make more money for him, then the bottom line in this aspect can be lowered and adjusted.

"But I'm afraid that Wang Shun will cause trouble after he passes away." Tian Qiuliang said.

He was worried that Wang Shun was just a temporary compromise at this moment, and when everything was settled, he joined the Jiejiekou Food Association, and after Wang Shun started doing business here, he would look for trouble in other places.

"Wang Shun is definitely not the only one who is causing trouble, so he is not a big deal. The important thing is how to deal with similar problems. You have to have a plan in mind, rather than targeting a certain person, it should be targeting a certain type of people. For now, he can bring us benefits, and that's enough." Lu Hao said with a smile.

It was never Wang Shun he had to deal with, but people like Wang Shun.

And this type of people will never disappear, there will always be them.

After chatting with Tian Qiuliang for a while, Lu Hao and Chen Linjiao left the Sijimei Soup Dumpling Shop.

"Why didn't you say a word just now?" Lu Hao looked at the little widow.

"You are all the bosses, I can't get in the way." Chen Linjiao said.

She is embarrassed.

"Don't forget, you are also the boss yourself, and your business is doing quite well." Lu Hao said with a smile, "If there are meetings like this in the future, you can also say a few words to exercise your abilities and be a boss. It’s not just the employees who come into contact with you, but also other bosses, including leaders of relevant departments. You have to learn to speak and get along with others, but you have to keep one thing in mind: you can say beautiful words and nice words, but it doesn’t cost you money anyway. , but don’t just believe what others say.”

"There is a gap between people's hearts. Even if the other person seems sincere and what he says makes sense, just listen to it. You have to be wary in your heart. As the old saying goes, a man's words are a lie. There is no word in a man's mouth. To tell the truth, when you talk about cooperation with other people, you have to have this mentality in mind, and businessmen don’t tell the truth.”

"Don't say you haven't signed a contract, even if you have signed a contract, you still have to think about what to do if the other party doesn't act in accordance with the contract."

Lu Hao imparts experience to Chen Linjiao.

Preparing for the worst in everything and making one or even multiple sets of prepared plans will definitely only have advantages and no disadvantages.

"How can you say that about yourself? I think you are quite honest in what you said, and what you said just now is very reasonable. Could it be that the guarantee you gave to the big guy at the table just now is all false?" Chen Linjiao asked.

She found Lu Hao strange and interesting. She said that his words were unreliable and exposed his shortcomings.

"Of course what I just said is true, but among the 100 people who cooperate, even if 99 are true, if only one of them is false, it may make your decades of hard work come to nothing, or even betray you. We are in heavy debt." Lu Hao said, "Do you know why you have to lock the door?"

"Prevent someone from entering the house and stealing things." Chen Linjiao said.

"That's right, but do you know who you are guarding against?" Lu Hao asked again.

Chen Linjiao was a little strange, "Locking the door is to prevent thieves from entering the house and stealing things. Of course, it is also thieves that we are preventing, isn't it right?"

Lu Hao was very smart and capable. She knew that, but she asked such a strange question. The answer didn't seem that simple.

She was puzzled.

"To guard against thieves, yes and no. It is not only to guard against thieves, but also to guard against gentlemen." Lu Hao said, "A real thief cannot be guarded against. No matter how powerful the door lock is, when faced with a real thief, he can lock the door. If you pry it open, it will be ordinary people, not thieves, who act on impulse and see that your door is locked, but they will not open it, but if your door is unlocked, these people will go in and steal things."

There are not actually that many thieves, but there are actually quite a few people who have thieves' thoughts. They are in a critical state, and there are actually a lot of these 'gentlemen'.

Therefore, we must nip this mentality in the cradle, and the best way is to lock the door.

"Just now, you were also in the private room, and you also heard what Tian Qiuliang said to me later. The boss named Wang Shun has had conflicts with me for a long time. Today, when we all sit down together to discuss things, I will I had already anticipated that he might come, and that he would most likely attack me, and I had a plan to deal with it. I had already made plans in my mind for some of the issues he mentioned, and I knew how to answer them and how to deal with them so that I could improve myself. Maximize your interests." Lu Hao said.

"This is the same as door locks. You have to prepare in advance for possible risks and take into account emergencies. In the future, you have to consider all aspects more carefully before handling things. In this way You won’t be at a loss when encountering emergencies.”

"On the business side, it is very helpful for establishing one's own prestige and safeguarding one's own interests."

Two types of situations will make management difficult.

One is an acquaintance. An acquaintance is too familiar with you and knows your shortcomings and weaknesses. It costs more to establish prestige in front of acquaintances.

Another reason is that subordinates often make fools of themselves in front of others and make mistakes. When they know that you, the leader, cannot handle everything well, the subordinates will mutter in their hearts and think that the leader is nothing more than this. Thus affecting the follow-up work.

The best relationship between leaders and subordinates is actually aloofness.

Be as close as you are verbally, and be as far away as you are physically. While establishing a good reputation, you can also protect your prestige in front of your subordinates.

The same goes for partners.
