Second,
In the huge living room, only the chairman of Huayu Group, Zhao Zhixing, and the old governor, Qian Hongtao, were left. The two brothers were childhood friends. They were classmates in primary and middle school. After graduating from high school, Qian Hongtao went to university and started working in politics, all the way until he retired as a provincial governor. Zhao Zhixing didn't manage to get into university. In order to keep him in check and not let him run away, his father married him back then. At the age of 19, he joined the labor force and became the father of his child.
In the early 1980s, he went into the sea to do business. He climbed all the way and developed rapidly. Now, he had a net worth of more than one billion yuan. In the past ten years of business, he had been guided by Qian Hongtao, who had become a high-ranking official. He had been highly involved in several major passes. When the mining industry was in the doldrums, he bought them. When the paper and cement companies were at their peak, they sold them at high prices. Others were forced to close down because of pollution after taking over for more than a year. When the real estate industry first rose, they immediately followed suit and quickly expanded. They had taken the right steps. He became the chairman of a company with more than a billion yuan in assets.
His career was flourishing, but his family was unfortunate. Five years ago, his eldest daughter died of leukemia. Three years ago, his wife passed away due to cerebral hemorrhage. Three months ago, his eldest son went to check on the safety work of the coal mine. Unexpectedly, the car overturned into the ravine, and his eldest son never returned. Fortunately, he was supposed to go with his eldest son that day. The eldest brother left just like that, leaving behind his eldest grandson, Zhao Tiewei. Three months later, when the city police department presented all the evidence of the assassination of the eldest son to the second son, the second son was dumbfounded. He then committed suicide by taking poison, leaving his second grandson, Zhao Tielin, behind. The second son had used the method of the princes fighting for the throne in history to kill each other for the position of chairman. His own son killed his other son and then committed suicide by taking poison. This was like two knives stabbing into his heart.
His old friend Qian Hongtao had been an official for many years and had a high position. He could see things from afar. It was he who told his old friend Zhao Zhixing that this matter had to be kept strictly confidential. Otherwise, if the two grandsons had a grudge against each other for killing their father, the consequences would be unpredictable. The chairman turned pale with fright when he heard this. What could be greater than the hatred of killing his father in the world? Thinking of his two adorable grandsons, he could not help but shed two streams of chaotic tears. What was wrong with his grandson? However, once he revealed his true feelings…He did not dare to think about it anymore. He immediately pulled himself together. He had to deal with this matter properly. Otherwise, he really did not know what else could happen.
Zhao Tiewei, 23 years old, graduated from Beijing University of Technology this year. His second grandson, Zhao Tielin, was twenty-two years old. He was a senior at Beijing Technology and Business University and should have graduated. Although the two grandsons were one year apart, they were only a few months apart. One of them was born after September 1st, while the other was born in January of the following year. Therefore, they went to school in the same year. Her granddaughter, Wu Mingfang, was a graduate student at Fudan University in Shanghai. She had also graduated this year. After his precious daughter left, the chairman combined his love for his daughter with his granddaughter's love and placed it all on his granddaughter. He would panic if he did not call her for two or three days.
How was he going to distribute the assets of more than a billion yuan behind him? He would rather give up on the family business than let his three grandchildren compete with each other. It was difficult! With the heir of the son generation gone, this huge money empire was placed here. Who would be the king of this empire? Equal distribution? The three of them were only in their early twenties. What would happen if they had hundreds of millions of assets?
The old governor Qian Hongtao came up with an idea and was approved by Zhao Zhixing. The three children were all graduating this year. After graduation, they were not allowed to enter the company and were given a few industries: One was to enter politics, the second was to join the army, and the third was to enter the science and education world. They had to stay away from business and not focus on money. Let these three children develop in their respective industries for three to five years. Their careers should also improve and their thoughts should be relatively mature. At that time, it would be much better to talk about the company. The chairman felt that his old friend's words made sense. From the looks of it, this was the only way.
From the development of the three children, the chairman had his own ideas. He wanted his granddaughter to go into education. Over the past decade, the chairman had been very worried about the business world. Money had long become a number for him. His money was accumulated step by step. People who went through this process were very calm. It was like people going to Tibet. The reactions of those who went there by plane and those who went there by car were completely different. They took a car from the mainland to Potala Palace at an altitude of 3650 meters step by step. Most people could still accept the lack of oxygen at this height, but eight out of ten people had a strong reaction when they arrived at the Potala Palace in one step by plane. If a person suddenly encountered the arrival of hundreds of millions of assets, perhaps this pie that fell from the sky could kill this person.
After the general direction was set, the two brothers slept separately.
At noon the next day, the three children returned from Beijing and Shanghai respectively. The mourning hall at home surprised the children. Tielin hugged his father's portrait and cried his heart out. He fainted twice. Tie Wei, who had just lost his father three months ago, was reminded of his father who loved him the most. His cries even surpassed Tie Lin's. Ming Fang, who had lost her mother, was deeply puzzled by the misfortune in her family. Why did disasters always revolve around her big family? The whole family cried. Rich and noble families were often accompanied by great sorrow and disaster. Truly, happy families were all similar, and unfortunate families had their own misfortunes.
The general manager of the group, Li Mingzhi, followed the instructions. Three months ago, he had just finished the funeral of the eldest young master. This time, he did it again. He thought to himself, This grudge between the rich and powerful almost sent the old man to heaven. Why did people go crazy when they saw money?
On the third day after the funeral, Chairman Zhao Zhixing held a family meeting. Two outsiders were invited to participate. One was an old friend, Qian Hongtao, and the other was the general manager, Li Mingzhi. Tielin's father had divorced a few years ago, and his mother was an outsider, so she didn't attend. Wu Mingfang's father had stayed for four years after his wife passed away five years ago. He had gotten married last year and did not attend. Only Tie Wei's mother and three children attended the meeting. Tie Wei's mother only wanted to listen but didn't say anything. The three children were still grieving. The two outsiders they invited were elders that the children respected. They were usually close to each other and were not much different from a family.
Grandpa spoke," I have six children in my life. Now that three of them have passed away, there are only three of you left. You are my life!”Before he could finish, the three children started crying again.
Qian Hongtao took over the topic." It's the most painful thing in the world for a white-haired person to send off a black-haired person. However, your grandfather has survived. You have to be able to take it up and let it go. For your grandfather, you should know what to do.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the children stopped crying and knew that they were about to get to the point.
Qian Hongtao continued," What your grandfather means is: The three of you, one graduate student, and two college students are graduating this year. Your grandfather has been in business all his life and doesn't want you to walk this path anymore. Grandpa has chosen three paths for you. First, go into politics, second, go into the military, and third, go into education.”
The three children looked at their grandfather in confusion. It was their grandfather who had made them study economics or business administration in school. He said that the company would be theirs sooner or later. Why had it changed now?
Grandpa said," I was the one who told you to study economics, and I'm the one who told you not to work in economics now. Now that the company is developing smoothly and has a few hundred million in revenue a year, it's not impossible to give each of you a sum of money or a company to develop on your own. But Grandpa doesn't want to do that. I'll give you time. I'll give each of you eight years. In these eight years, don't do business and go into other industries. Eight years later, Grandpa will be seventy-three years old. Seventy-three, eighty-four, King Yama did not invite him to go. "When that time comes, Grandpa will really be unable to do anything. It's better for us to hold another meeting to discuss the company's matters. I'll give you two days. Come and find me after you've thought it through. Grandpa is tired. If you all understand, go back to work!”
The three children stared at each other and didn't quite understand. The CEO of the group, Li Mingzhi, took it and said,"Your grandfather told me that he started earning money to support his family. I didn't expect him to earn so much. It's so much that it's uncountable and inexhaustible. It's enough for a few lifetimes. You don't have to earn money for your family anymore. I hope you can repay society. Money is only useful when it's needed. You have a hundred cars, but you can only take one when you go out. You have a thousand rooms, but you can only sleep on one bed. You have a bowl of rice for others to eat, but you help them. If you had a hundred bowls of rice for others to eat, they would be helping you. If you couldn't finish it, you would have to throw it away.”Seeing that the three children were all nodding, he continued," Your grandfather wants you to enter politics to serve the majority of the people. Education is to train talents for the country. Soldiers are to protect the country. Politicians are to do things for the people. As for working in a family company, it's a little smaller and your starting point is a little lower. It's good for your growth if you go out into society to experience hardships. However, your grandfather has also said that you should make the big decisions yourself. As long as you decide, I'll support you. Just one thing, don't do business.”
"Think about it carefully and give your grandfather an answer as soon as possible," Qian Hongtao said.”
Her granddaughter, Wu Mingfang, went to her father and told him about her grandfather's request. Her father was a neurosurgeon. Four years after his wife died of illness, he had become a new family. After listening to her daughter's words, she understood what she meant. She was afraid that her three grandchildren would fight for the property and hurt their relationship. The children were still too young and easily impulsive.
The father said to his daughter,"One of the three paths your grandfather pointed out was designed for you."”
Wu Mingfang nodded." I've thought of it too. I'm ready to listen to Grandpa."”
His father smiled in satisfaction." I'll tell you something today. After your mother passed away, your grandfather transferred 10% of the company's shares to you. This was done by a lawyer and a notary. It was all done by Dad for you. Every year, you can get 10 to 20 million yuan from the company's dividends. Now, you have 70 to 80 million yuan under your name. You have to believe in your grandfather. If it's yours, your grandfather will definitely give it to you.”
Wu Mingfang was pleasantly surprised when she heard this. Dad and I will split it half."
"Your grandfather has a rule that you have to get his approval before you can spend more than 500,000 yuan at a time. Dad has enough money. You should talk to your grandfather as soon as possible.”
"Then I'll tell Grandpa today that I'm going to the Provincial University of Science and Technology to be a teacher. It's only two stops away from Grandpa's house. I'll live with Grandpa and take care of each other.”
"Alright, your grandfather likes you the most.”
His eldest grandson, Zhao Tiewei, did not sleep the entire night. His mother's voice kept echoing in his ears. Your grandfather said that the group will be yours in the future. You will be the chairman, Tielin will be the general manager, and Mingfang will be the financial director. This is the iron triangle that has the most stable development of the Zhao family's industry. Why are you all overthrowing it now? What was the reason behind the overthrow? Who did he not want to interfere with? Eight years later, if all three of them were far away from the economic circle, how could they take over? Don't forget, there's a huge difference between different professions. Don't even think about becoming a teacher or a soldier. Become a civil servant and become an official in the future. Only when you become an official and have a status will you be the closest to the Huayu Group. In China, if you want to become a big enterprise, you can't do it without the government. If you become a county head or chief, your grandfather will definitely hire you to manage the group. You must work hard and risk your life. You must show your grandfather and your father that my Tie Wei is the best.
Zhao Weitie's mother was a senior reporter for the provincial daily newspaper. She was very accurate in reading questions. He felt that his mother was right. The position of chairman or general manager of the group was very attractive to him. Which man did not dream of being a general, a rich man, or even a president when he was young?
Zhao Tiewei had been smarter than Zhao Tielin since he was young. He knew that he had to follow his grandfather's instructions. Otherwise, he would be eliminated. Zhao Tiewei had already made up his mind. As a civil servant, he would start from the lowest level. He would only need ten years at most. He wanted to be the county head, the youngest county head, and the youngest chairman. He wanted to let Grandpa see his strength. A person who could be a county head was the closest to the chairman of the corporation.
