Qin Guodong shook his head, "Let's put this aside for now. Brother Zheng and I will discuss it together. My case has been around for so many years, and I don't know if Pengya is the same now as before. If I thanked the wrong person, Misunderstandings are not only thankless, but may also offend others. It is better to stop silently. " "You sit down for a while, and I will explain the matter of your trademark." As he spoke, Qin Guodong took it as usual. I had a watermelon, except in the office. After a while, Qin Guodong came back. "I asked people from the Trademark Office to help me check it. It seems that you are in good luck. The pinyin and Chinese characters that are most likely to have the same name have not been found with the same name as yours in each category. The search and comparison of patterns is not three-in-one. It can be found out immediately, but the possibility of a problem is even smaller. I think there should be no problem in registering. " "Then please leave it to Brother Qin." "Also, I just called and asked Brother Zheng. He also said that the person's surname was Xie. I called him a few days ago. He didn't mention you. He just said that he was not well connected. He hoped that Brother Zheng could put in a good word for him with several members of the Standing Committee of his faction. There are some co-authors like this. Because it¡¯s inside, it¡¯s no wonder. It¡¯s no wonder that Brother Zheng is so far away that it¡¯s not easy for him to owe someone a favor. Your door-to-door delivery gave him a good excuse. It¡¯s none of his business. "Then if I didn't say it, wouldn't Brother Zheng never know about it? " Qin Guodong smiled and shook his head, "It's so easy to take advantage of this, but speaking of it, you really don't need to repay this favor. You can do whatever you want. Anyway, the contract is signed, so hurry up and don't delay the business. " "But as you said, they are rushing to meet the construction deadline. Even a wall they build can fall down. Is something going to happen to me? "Although I think it's unlikely, I'm still a little worried. "I can guarantee that even if the five-star hotel opposite you has a problem and collapses, you will be fine. When it comes to building safety and regulations, they can rely on the highest standards, and even build beyond the standards when necessary. This is also the national situation. They are more worried about something happening than you are. " "If you think about it that way, that's true. " Xu Yi said, smiling self-deprecatingly. After refilling his cup of tea, Qin Guodong continued: "The provincial capital is so big, but even the most sociable person's life circle is not that big. Everyone in the circle knows that you saved your aunt. Brother Zheng values ??friendship and has many resources at his disposal. It can be said that you may encounter something like this in the future. Although these people seem to be showing kindness to you, they are actually looking at Brother Zheng behind him, and even more so at the resources behind him. "Xu Yi was helpless after hearing this. People want high quality products at low prices or to take advantage, but when they come to me, they have to be careful of the trap of favors. If they fall into it, they will suffer big losses. "Then how can I deal with this matter? " Qin Guodong shook his head and smiled, "It's not your fault, these people can do anything. Brother Zheng asked me to find someone to return the favor. Anyway, this matter really has nothing to do with you, so you better leave it alone. If Brother Zheng hadn't been in the provincial capital, I wouldn't have wanted to get involved in these things. " "I know, I didn't expect this to happen at all. I thought there was a backing, but I also thought I would be stabbed severely. If that's the case, then I really admit it. But I didn't expect that I would get a huge benefit if I didn't get ripped off, so I felt even more worried. " Qin Guodong nodded seriously, "You are right to think so. Remember this in the future. As long as money can solve it, don't use other methods. At least on the surface, there is no consumption of public funds now. The catering industry can no longer count on public funds. The order in the provincial capital is also good. There is no need to take advantage of the situation. Otherwise, I am afraid that the profit will not be enough to compensate. If this messes with Necessary trouble is even more of a disadvantage. Xu Yi felt worried, "Then I'll trouble you. I really don't know anything about this." " "That's okay. It doesn't matter if the business is small. But if the business is big enough to attract the attention of some people, you have to be more cautious. This is inevitable. " Qin Guodong lowered his voice and said: "To that extent, you either have the ability to keep this wealth, or you can only wait to be cannibalized - of course, this is also because too many people leave too much behind when they get rich early. Nothing clean anymore. Even if a fly doesn't bite a seamless egg, the blisters on your feet are all caused by yourself, so you can't blame others. " Xu Yi nodded, "However, if I just open such a small restaurant, no one will care, right? " "That's because, with your little money, people with real energy will not look down on you at all. You don¡¯t need to do anything crooked, and naturally you have less opportunities to teach others. There is nothing to be afraid of. If something really happens, you won¡¯t know who is afraid of whom! " After a moment of silence, Qin Guodong looked at Xu Yi and asked: "What do you think a spider looks like? " "It's quite ugly, but it feels quite smart. Some spiders can even catch birds, so?Vicious. But generally speaking, they are basically solitary, and it is rare to see spiders gathering together, so it seems quite lonely. " "Well, most spiders are typically loners. This may be because they are ferocious carnivorous insects, and their companions are prone to compete with each other and even kill each other in the same place. For example, even if a male spider wants to mate with a female spider, he needs to do everything possible to please and resolve hostility, otherwise he will be attacked by the female spider and may even be eaten after mating. " "That's not just cruel, it's simply cruel. " "In a sense, some officials and businessmen are also spiders acting as predators in the human jungle - but they are different from common spiders. Because of the complexity of human society, those who fight alone will eventually be destroyed. , so they are an alternative to spiders in nature. " "Are there any spiders that live in groups? "Imagining a bunch of hairy spiders gathering together, even though Xu Yi is not one of those hypocritical "mysterious people" in the legend, he still feels a little numb. Qin Guodong nodded, "When I was studying abroad in the early years, I saw a Ghost spiders are a rare species of spiders that live in groups. Large groups of spiders can even have tens of thousands of spiders gathered together. " Xu Yi couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this. Once a person passes through thousands of mountains and plains, once a person passes through, there are no boundaries. If it were replaced by thousands of spiders, I'm afraid it would give people the illusion that they fell into the Pansi Cave. Okay. "How can we live with so many spiders together? " "They will work together to form a large net to catch food. This net can even be as large as hundreds or thousands of square meters. "Xu Yi asked: "You mean" Qin Guodong must have known what he meant, so he didn't say it so straightforwardly. Just watching Qin Guodong nod, he obviously knew what he wanted to say. "With other social animals, Likewise, this kind of ghost spider also has class characteristics. " "Someone has done an interesting study. They studied the social habits of this kind of spider. " "It should be interesting to think about it. Do they also have a queen bee and a queen like bees and ants? " Qin Guodong shook his head, "That's not true. They found that the spiders that were in the center of the web were more mature and stronger, while the spiders that were outside the web were weaker. " "It's the spider in the middle. It can catch more prey, so it eats better and is stronger, right? " Qin Guodong still smiled and shook his head, "On the contrary, they found that spiders that build webs on the outside have a higher probability of getting food than those in the center. Xu Yi was confused, "The spiders on the outside should be stronger, right?" " "Actually, the reason is very simple. Spiders are not the ultimate hunters in the forest. They also have their own natural enemies. This is the reason for this result. Spiders on the periphery have a higher hunting probability, but their probability of being attacked is also three times higher than spiders in the center of the web. Spiders in the center of the web have a smaller chance of hunting than spiders on the periphery, but they can enjoy their food more safely and calmly. This is hunting with a life, but you have to enjoy it with a life. " "As long as they have the ability, the spiders on the periphery will definitely want to get as close as possible to the center of the web, right? " Qin Guodong nodded, "No matter what, safety always comes first, so this kind of spider is the most enterprising type. They are always in a state of uneasiness and always work hard to get closer to the center of this net. When he is strong enough, he may even tear the injured 'senior' to pieces as prey and use them as food. " "Do you think this is different from the code of conduct in official circles or shopping malls? "Xu Yi listened, pondered for a while, and nodded silently. "Large companies and high-ranking officials occupy a large amount of resources. They will not be selective about what they eat. Instead, they will be picky and try their best to ensure their own safety. Only then will they give their prey a fatal blow. hit. Only small businessmen and local officials will do whatever it takes to risk their lives for a small profit. " "In this cobweb-covered jungle, it's not that easy to do something without interference. Whether you are approaching intentionally or you are attracted by the web, the web will get entangled in you unknowingly. Of course, if your career is small, not many people may care about it, and even if they do, they will often be evenly matched with you, and may even be at risk of death. But as the business grows, some people will inevitably be jealous. Break through with force or move forward with the net, this is the way of survival you have to choose in the end. " Xu Yi sighed. Choosing the former will undoubtedly face many obstacles, while the latter has more considerations. "When your career develops slowly, maybe this network will help you move forward, but when you develop quickly, ¡ª¡ªIt will become your resistance, delay your progress, and become hesitant to move forward.?Even drag you into the abyss. I really agree with that sentence - you will have to pay it back sooner or later. " After hearing this, Xu Yi raised his head and stared at Qin Guodong. After a while, he made up his mind and asked: "Brother Zheng's going out, does it have anything to do with this? "
