Rebirth: 1977

To be honest, Ye Tianshui, who had just been reborn, did want to take advantage of his foresight to carve out a place for himself in the business world.

After he was admitted to university, he realized one thing: he had what it takes to pursue a career in politics.

When I walked into the school gate and into the assigned dormitory, I saw several big names who would become powerful figures in the future political arena. I was overjoyed that I could be classmates with them at that time.

At that time, his only thought was to establish good relationships with these future bigwigs as quickly as possible.

In the future, I can use the friendship between classmates to cling to the big boss’s thigh.

Who knew that his rebirth would make the gears of fate of many people turn in different directions again.

He changed the fate of more people, and he himself was the one with the biggest variable.

In his previous life, he thought he was just an orphan until his death, but when he arrived in the capital, he accidentally discovered the secret of his identity.

This one incident alone has more or less changed the fate of everyone involved.

He looked at the four people around him. Xiao Zhan's fate had undergone a subversive change because he was the one most deeply involved with him in his previous life.

Guo Kang was the top leader of Pingcheng City in his previous life, so Ye Tianshui knew him and they even had some interactions.

It all started because one was a big shot in the political arena of Pingcheng City, and the other was an entrepreneur with some success in the business world.

But Yuan Cheng and Wu Pingtao are completely different. They hold high positions in government and rank relatively high among the nearly two hundred members of the National Standing Committee.

At that time, Ye Tianshui's 'Tianshui Fund' was in the capital, and he often moved in and out of the celebrity circles in the capital.

Yuan Cheng and Wu Pingtao are people who often appear in newspapers and on television.

Otherwise, entrepreneurs of Ye Tianshui’s level would not even know them.

If he had not been diagnosed with a terminal illness, with the help of the "Tianshui Fund", Ye Tianshui would have been able to grow from a "small and medium-sized entrepreneur" to a well-known entrepreneur if he continued to work hard for a few more years.

The most difficult years for a company are the first few years. As long as it can stabilize within two years, it has passed the first hurdle.

If a business is still growing slowly and steadily five years after its establishment, it can basically survive.

After ten years, if the company has not gone bankrupt and continues to develop steadily in its industry, as long as the company's CEO does not rush for success, continues to proceed steadily and deeply cultivates the industry, it will surely achieve great success.

The biggest taboo for entrepreneurs is that after their business develops, they become greedy for credit and take risks, become self-righteous, and blindly want to get a piece of the pie just because others are doing well.

If you don't take risks casually, don't easily get involved in industries you are not familiar with, and explore the markets of other industries, you will have the opportunity to grow bigger and stronger and become a leader in the industry.

In the previous life, more than 20 years had passed since the establishment of the "Tianshui Fund" until Ye Tianshui died of illness.

During this five-year period, he had been battling illness, and his only requirement for the company was survival, rather than development and growth.

Ye Tianshui now has not the slightest bit of pride in himself as he has already far surpassed the people in front of him at this age and can be "leading the way".

The fact that he can stand at this height now is the advantage he has gained from his two lifetimes as a human being.

At this time, the five people in the study fell silent. They would not have many opportunities to get together like today in the future.

"Brother Xiao, your job and position are very important. From now on, you just need to be simple and honest, do your job well, and become a helper to Governor Yuan."

Ye Tianshui looked at Xiao Zhan and said sincerely.

Being the director of a provincial public security department, and the director of the Jiangnan Provincial Public Security Department, is already Xiao Zhan's limit.

In addition to his own continuous efforts, Ye Tianshui also made an indispensable contribution to his ability to reach this position.

Another important reason is that Yuan Shikang happened to be promoted from the Director of the Jiangnan Provincial Industry Department to the Deputy Governor at a critical moment.

His relationship with Ye Tianshui, and the relationship between Ye Tianshui and Yuan Cheng, formed a solid link.

Similarly, it also helped Yuan Shikang to reach a higher level of success.

"I know, Xiaoshui, don't worry, I know my own abilities and capabilities.

Without you, there would be no Xiao Zhan today." He looked at Yuan Cheng, "I also thank Governor Yuan for his support."

This makes sense, but Xiao Zhan said this now more as a polite remark.

Everyone present knew that Yuan Shikang's support and appreciation of Xiao Zhan came entirely from Ye Tianshui's secret instigation.

But Yuan Shikang was Xiao Zhan's immediate superior and Yuan Cheng's father, so such polite words were indispensable.

Yuan Cheng looked at Xiao Zhan calmly, smiled, and told the truth:

"Brother Xiao, you are capable enough. My father has always needed officials who can be used by him.

The officialdom is not a place for favoritism. If Xiao Ge didn’t have Xiao Shui behind you, he might not be able to see you.”

Xiao Zhan laughed and said solemnly: "Of course, Xiao Shui is my good brother.

He gave me a new life.”

Ye Tianshui kicked Yuan Cheng and slapped Guo Gan on the shoulder:

"Come, let me tell you two about this."

Yuan Cheng retracted his foot, pushed up his glasses, and said seriously, "I sit here just to hear your thoughts."

Guo Kang almost jumped up and nodded vigorously: "That's right, Xiao Shui, we have been discussing this on the train here. Do you have any good suggestions for us?

The first phase of the tunnel boring machine project is nearing completion, and the second phase is ready to start.

Seeing batches of imported equipment and machinery being put into the warehouse, we always feel a little uneasy. "

Yuan Cheng explained: "It's not entirely uneasy, but seeing the factory buildings being built, the scale is too shocking.

It's very different from the feeling when I first saw the drawings.

After formal production begins, the coordination work among all parties may not be something we can control in our current capacity.

Xiaoshui, I'm afraid I'll cause you a lot of trouble by then."

Ye Tianshui could certainly understand Yuan Cheng and Guo Kang’s concerns.

Even though Yuan Shikang is Yuan Cheng's father, in the officialdom, for a provincial governor's decrees to reach the local level, they still require the strong cooperation of municipal leaders and government departments at all levels.

Things like 'enforcing orders and prohibiting disobeying orders' do not work in official circles most of the time.

If anyone below is dissatisfied, just a small and inconspicuous movement may cause you to fall.

There are still many people who like to do the so-called "tripping others up" and doing things that harm others and do not benefit themselves.

"So, I would like to make a suggestion to the leaders of Jiangnan Province to set up a 'development zone' in Pingcheng and Sucheng, with the two existing shield machine industrial parks as the center.

The administrative level is the same as other counties and districts, and it is directly under the jurisdiction of the provincial leadership.

There can be fewer officials intervening in the process, and even the city leaders of the two places cannot interfere at will.”
