Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 436 Visit to Wuzhen
In Hangzhou, in a Chinese-style courtyard villa area, hillsides, rivers, ponds and streams can be seen everywhere, creating a beautiful scenery with beautiful mountains and waters, gentle slopes, secluded valleys, beautiful forests and beautiful artistic conception, showing the natural beauty of mountains and rivers.
Especially the highly recognizable small bridges and flowing water, the unique water town garden style of the Jiangnan region is pleasing to the eye. Being in it, one can feel the same way about the three words "Peach Blossom Spring".
"No wonder Brother Ding said Hangzhou is the most comfortable place to live. It does have a different leisurely atmosphere from Guangzhou. People who stay in this paradise for a long time can prolong their lifespan." Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but sigh.
The beauty of Hangzhou, a city with a long history, was praised by Marco Polo, who traveled from afar, as "the most beautiful and magnificent city in the world."
Now, as time goes by, this city has taken on the express train of the Internet era and gained a unique attraction. It has not only given birth to Internet giants like Alibaba, but also attracted a number of bigwigs like Ding Sanshi.
In the coming year of mobile technology, it will play an even more important role.
Ding Sanshi smiled and all the wrinkles on his face were smoothed out. "This is natural. The flavor of Suzhou and Hangzhou gardens reveals a bit of chivalry and tenderness. It may be a bit old-fashioned for young people, but it is my favorite."
Looking at the rockery pond outside the window and taking a sip of hot tea, this kind of leisure has always been what Ding Sanshi longed for, just like his original intention, which was to be a leisurely small boss.
But I didn't expect that it would catch the express train of the times and be pushed to the forefront of the times.
"How can this be called old-fashioned? The charm of traditional culture is that it is suitable for all ages. It's just that the pace of life is getting faster and faster, and people have no time to appreciate it."
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but empathize. After all, he had also been a social animal who tried his best to survive, so he naturally understood this deeply.
In a sense, he is just like Ding Sanshi who has boarded the express train of the times. If he had not been given a unique opportunity, he would not be qualified to talk and laugh about "life" here.
However, compared with the big guys with real talents, Zhou Dongsheng felt that he could only be regarded as a lucky speculator. Apart from luck, there was no comparison.
After all, family members know their own business.
"The development of the Internet has indeed been accelerating over the years, and this process is almost irreversible. With the rise of mobile Internet, it has penetrated into every corner of our lives..."
"As a vested interest, I shouldn't say this, but it's the fact," Ding Sanshi said frankly.
Maybe big guys also have their own struggles, Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile .
"Everything has its many sides. Even when the Internet first emerged, it experienced hype and bubble bursting. China even regarded it as a scourge. This is something that Ding Ge probably felt the most deeply."
"The sudden outbreak of the epidemic has suddenly changed the public's prejudice against the Internet. Whether it is information dissemination or convenience in life, the Internet has created endless possibilities."
"I think the same is true for the fertile soil of mobile Internet."
Although Zhou Dongsheng was just a child when the domestic Internet took off, Ding Sanshi was a real participant and builder, and even a leader among them.
However, as a member of the young generation whose lives have been truly changed by the Internet, this does not prevent Zhou Dongsheng from expressing some superficial views on this.
Zhou Dongsheng feels the impact of not only the Internet but also mobile Internet on life even more deeply than Ding Sanshi in front of him.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng has seen pigs run and eaten pork, especially the epidemic, which he has experienced twice, and the latter is even more distant...
"You really have a lot of ideas, no wonder you hit it off with Huang Zheng. At that time, Huang Zheng and I were still online friends. We first met on the Internet. In addition to discussing technical issues, we mostly talked about the Internet..."
There was a look of reminiscence in Ding Sanshi's eyes, as if he missed the past.
Zhou Dongsheng suddenly had an idea. If he asked this big boss to exchange his life's wealth for a chance to be reborn, would this big boss who already had everything be willing to do it?
As soon as this idea came up, Zhou Dongsheng already had the answer. After all, who can resist the temptation of living a new life?
"I'm still far from it. Brother Huang has started three businesses. I can't compare to him with his indomitable spirit and his determination to achieve his goals." Zhou Dongsheng said happily.
"You are good in everything, kid, except that you lack the sharpness of a young person. You are too old. Huang Zheng was very arrogant when he was your age." Ding Sanshi commented sharply.
"Brother Huang is arrogant because of his talent. I have nothing, so I can't be arrogant." Zhou Dongsheng said innocently.
"At your age, isn't this achievement enough for you to be proud of? I can see that you are harboring evil intentions and are pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger." Ding Sanshi scolded with a smile.
"It all depends on the person. If you compare yourself with ordinary people, you have the capital to be proud. But in front of a big guy like Brother Ding, you will naturally be stretched to the limit and feel ashamed." Zhou Dongsheng flattered him.
"Come on, you are the best at flattery. Save some of your energy and go to Wuzhen to take pictures of other people later." The smile on Ding Sanshi's face became even bigger.
This is just like the way young people feel free to joke around, and it makes them feel younger in mentality. Even inside the pig factory, Ding Sanshi is the same.
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but be excited, unable to hide his inner anticipation. These big guys, who he had only seen photos of in the past and who had stayed at bragging and pointing fingers at their partners, will now gather together to "Fight at Mount Huashan"!
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel itchy.
"Well, your anxious look actually shows some of the youthfulness in you. Don't be so tense all the time. Just relax. Let's go and see the world!" Ding Sanshi patted Zhou Dongsheng's shoulder with a smile.
…
The charm of Wuzhen, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, can only be experienced by visiting it in person, with its misty alleys, pink walls and black tiles, the sound of oars and the shadows of boats, and flowing water.
For Zhou Dongsheng, who lives in the coastal area, the graceful beauty of the Jiangnan water town is like the soft Wu dialect spoken in his ears and flows into the depths of his heart like a clear spring, making him feel extremely comfortable.
Compared to the hustle and bustle of the city, it is indeed more relaxing to discuss the future of the Internet or hold a drama festival in a place like this.
"Although this is not the first time I've gotten up here, I still feel a special feeling every time I come here. I'll take you to an inn I often go to for dinner later. The proprietress's cooking skills are really good." Ding Sanshi said with a smile.
Although Zhou Dongsheng was asked to be an assistant, he was actually followed by a few other people. Looking at the enthusiasm of the old and the young, the assistant couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what is the relationship between this young man and President Ding?
“Isn’t it the inn where the famous Wuzhen dinner was held? Brother Ding, you have single-handedly turned it into an Internet celebrity restaurant.” Zhou Dongsheng joked with a smile.
"This is a fresh way of saying it!" Before this term became completely ubiquitous , Ding Sanshi understood its meaning at first hearing and couldn't help but applaud.
While chatting, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but be attracted by a facility on the roadside. There was such a thing here?
