Chapter 2007: Chapter 2007: Thinking Too Much (second update)
Lu Yuan waited for a long ti. When he saw that Huo Shaoheng was still silent, he turned around and looked at him in surprise. “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you continuing to ask?”
Huo Shaoheng turned around and leaned his back against the counter. He said calmly, “You don’t want to tell , so what’s the point of asking?”
He actually didn’t take the bait.
Lu Yuan looked at him approvingly. “You’re becoming more and more composed. You Don’t even take my words.”
Huo Shaoheng smiled. “You an you’re very familiar with Old Mrs. Hong?”
This ti, Lu Yuan didn’t keep him in suspense. He nodded and said, “It’s not easy for old Mrs. Hong either. A woman can support such a large family business. If you can help, help.”
Huo Shaoheng had seen how ruthless Lu Yuan was when it ca to business. was he really “Happy to help others”?
He had underestimated the ability of “Capitalists”to suck blood.
Huo Shaoheng was noncommittal. He didn’t want to pay attention to the operation of the capital either. He asked directly, “Then you’re stealing the Huhu from the Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund. Will they sit idly by and wait for death?”
Lu Yuan turned on the electric stove and started cooking. He said, “You don’t understand. In business, harmony makes money. No successful businessman will fight with others to the end just to gamble.”
Huo Shaoheng was keenly aware that lu yuan was referring to “Successful businessn.”He smiled knowingly.”... so all businessn who gamble to the end have failed?”
“Of course. When it cos to business, if you want to take a gamble, you can’t kill 1,000 enemies. If you lose 800 yourself, you have to kill 1,000 enemies and lose 2,000 yourself in order to take revenge.”
“Over ti, who have you seen doing business like this and still be able to continue? Naturally, they all went bankrupt.”
Lu Yuan moved very quickly. A plate of freshly cut, green, mashed garlic and small, oily cabbage ca out of the pot.
“... you’re saying that because you think Pacific rim private equity will not interfere with your business with the Hong Group?”Huo Shaoheng was still unsure of Lu Yuan’s intentions.
Lu Yuan placed the soup pot on the electromagnetic stove and said disapprovingly, “Of course they will interfere.”
Huo Shaoheng:”...”
“You’re saying that their business will definitely fail?”
“... you don’t understand.”Lu Yuan turned to look at him, he said aningfully, “I’m certain that they won’t just stand by and do nothing. They’ll definitely interfere with the Lu Corporation and the Hong Corporation. I can tell from their thods.”
“Think about the thods they used to cooperate with the Hong Corporation.”
Huo shaoheng pondered and said, “Their plan was to help the Hong Corporation go public first, but in order to gain publicity, they took the risk of violating the intellectual property rights of other companies.”
Lu Yuan nodded. “Then, when the company goes public, this problem will definitely be exposed. When the Hong Group’s stock price drops drastically, they will buy it at a low price, then package it and sell it at a high price.”
Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed. “But this matter was ruined by Professor Lu and Nianzhi. The Hong Group’s infringent of the intellectual property rights of other companies was exposed in advance, and they were unable to successfully go public.”
“Yes, so they imdiately changed their mind and directly asked the Pacific Rim Private Equity Fund to co forward and buy the Hong Corporation at a low price.”
“It was at this ti that the Lu Corporation stepped forward. Not only did we solve the imminent crisis of the Hong Corporation, but we also gained the trust of Old Madam Hong and were able to take over the overseas listing business from her.”
Lu Yuan smiled brightly. The passage of ti did not cause him to age. On the contrary, it made him like a jar of old wine that could not be stopped.
“But the Pacific Rim private equity fund that used underhanded thods...”Huo Shaoheng ca to a realization. “They won’t let go. But are they taking a gamble, or are they doing it for another reason?”
Lu Yuan gave Huo Shaoheng a thumbs up in approval. “That’s the right way to think. With their experience and ability, they won’t continue to get involved with the Hong Corporation under normal circumstances.”
“But if they continue to get involved with us, it’s definitely not for a gamble, or for business, but for so other reason.”
Huo Shaoheng then brought up the matter of Narita Yamaguchi.
“... your guess is very reasonable. I just received news from the Japanese that Narita has the shadow of a Pacific Rim private equity fund behind him.”
Although Lu Yuan was ntally prepared, he was still surprised to hear that Narita had the shadow of a Pacific Rim private equity fund behind him.
He stared and thought for a long ti before saying, “Looks like their goal has already shifted to Nianzhi.”
“Wasn’t it all for Nianzhi from the start?”Huo Shaoheng was used to overthinking things related to Gu Nianzhi.
“I don’t think so,”Lu Yuan said simply. “When do you think we’ll be back? And this Carlyle Company has been in contact with the Hong Corporation for more than a year, giving Guo huining bad ideas.”
Huo Shaoheng frowned, still feeling that sothing was wrong.”... even if we’ve been back for less than two months, Nianzhi didn’t leave a year ago...”
Lu Yuan had been absent from this world for 18 years, so Huo Shaoheng naturally understood gu nianzhi’s situation from the age of 12 to 19.
Now that he heard what Huo Shaoheng said, he also felt that it made sense.
“That makes sense. At that ti, Nianzhi was still here. If they had started to make plans then, was it really for Nianzhi?”Lu Yuan thought about the problem from a business point of view, “But why did they choose the Hong Corporation? The only person the Hong Corporation had any contact with was Hong Ziqi, a young master with diocre abilities.”
“They can’t really think that attacking the Hong Corporation would implicate nianzhi, right?”
“You’re not even close to Hong Ziqi, so Nianzhi’s relationship with them is even more distant.”
“So that doesn’t make sense.”
Huo Shaoheng also felt that it was a bit far-fetched to think so.
“Yeah, if their target is nianzhi, why would they choose the Hong Group instead of other organizations and other people?”
He muttered to himself, and Lu Yuan took the opportunity to ask him to help out with the cooking.
Huo Shaoheng’s mind was occupied with other things, so he subconsciously followed Lu Yuan’s instructions.
When Lu Jin was hungry enough to co to the kitchen to find sothing to eat, he said, “Eh? Boss Lu, are you slacking off? Why is Shaoheng Cooking?”
Huo Shaoheng looked down at the spatula in his hand and pursed his lips.
Lu Yuan hugged a cup of tea and said with a smile, “I’m tired, I need to rest. Shaoheng respects the old and loves the young, he’s a good role model for us.”
Lu Jin sneered and pointed at Lu Yuan, he ordered the dishes directly. “You’re the lazy one. The temperature has dropped today. I want to eat stead egg with oysters, braised lamb ribs with radishes, and also sea cucumber porridge. Nianzhi can eat these dishes too. It’s best to warm them up in the winter.”
Huo Shaoheng only ca back to his senses after hearing Lu Jin’s words. He had wanted to put down the spatula imdiately, but when he heard Lu Jin order the dishes, he rembered that Gu Nianzhi had been busy with work recently and was under a lot of pressure. She seed to want to take so supplents..
After dinner, Huo Shaoheng looked at his watch. It was already past seven.
Lu Jin and Lu Yuan sat at the dining table and were already drinking red wine.
Huo Shaoheng picked up his car keys. “I’ll go pick up Nianzhi.”
He didn’t call Gu Nianzhi because he wanted to give her a surprise.
Actually, Gu Nianzhi also had bodyguards by her side. The Senate’s senior officials had security personnel assigned by rank, and Huo Shaoheng also had the highest level of security according to her status as Huo Shaoheng’s wife.
Gu Nianzhi had just finished a eting with her team of staff mbers, and had finally settled the procedural issue of suing Narita and Tian Yamaguchi at the news agency.
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone. This matter has co to an end, so you don’t have to work overti for the ti being. You can all go back now.”Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded at everyone. “I’ll report the first-rate overti pay to everyone later.”
The Senate had to approve overti pay for their staff.
“Thank you, chief Gu!”Hearing that there was a first-class overti pay, everyone imdiately felt that the hard work was worth it.
Gu Nianzhi returned to her office. She still had one last bit of work to finish.
Rong Mingxing knocked on the door and smiled. “Chief Gu, shall we go together?”
“Sure.”Gu Nianzhi nodded with a smile. “I’ll drive. Where’s Your Car?”
“I’ll drive too. I’ll go downstairs with you.”Rong mingxing was very understanding and deliberately waited to go downstairs with Gu Nianzhi.
Although there would be no danger in the parliant building, they were still very cautious and would not leave only one person on the floor.
Gu Nianzhi also knew her good intentions. The two of them had known each other for a long ti.
She quickly finished her work and looked at the ti. It was only seven o’clock.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked into the elevator and went downstairs.
When they ca out of the parliant building, the cold air greeted them.
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and exhaled a breath of white frost.
The Dark Blue and quiet night sky was a semi-solidified sapphire color. The sky was full of stars, and it was a rare good weather.
Her car and Rong Mingxing’s car were not parked in the underground parking lot, but in the open-air parking lot not far from the parliant building.
The two of them planned to walk over and take a walk.
At that mont, a car parked on a nearby road suddenly opened its door. Guo Huining got out of the car first, then opened the back door and respectfully helped grandfather Huo out of the back seat.
“Miss Gu, your future grandfather is here to see you.”Guo Huining raised her voice to stop Gu Nianzhi, feeling very happy.
