Reinventing the Millennium

Chapter 651 Smoking is Harmful to Feelings (Triple in One)

The reception is over.

Fang Zhuo walked through the neon lights of the city and stood outside Xiaoyu's house.

All sounds are silent.

It was hard for him to say what mood he was in now, and he rang the doorbell.

Ding dong, ding dong.

After a while, the door was half opened, Yu Hong frowned and looked at the boss of the company who visited late at night, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Fang Zhuo stood at the door and asked a little embarrassedly, "Can't we go in and talk?"

Yu Hong leaned against the door, without any intention of letting go, and said lightly: "A detail worth mentioning, you have more or less brought documents with you when you met in the past. Today, your hands are empty, it's late, and you smell like alcohol. Should I let you in for a chat?"

Fang Zhuo replied naturally: "It should."

Yu Hong sneered and said, "This is a rhetorical question, and the answer is already in it."

"Hey, Xiaoyu, I'm sober. Don't we have such trust?" Fang Zhuo sighed, "I think we need to have a good chat."

Yu Hong said calmly: "At this late hour? What position do you use to have a good chat with me?"

Fang Zhuo never thought that he couldn't even get in the door, so he said a little annoyed: "Can't I talk to you about work problems? Can't we talk about the future of the company we jointly built?"

Yu Hong took out her mobile phone and showed the time eye-catchingly. It was already 10:30 at night: "Since it's business, Mr. Fang, it's time to get off work, please talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm off work and I don't want to talk about business. I'm a little confused and want to talk to you, so I won't be turned away like this. I don't even have a cup of coffee." Fang Zhuo said.

"Out of good intentions, I suggest that you go back and have a good sleep after drinking, instead of knocking on the door here today to say you are confused, and knocking on the door there tomorrow to call your sister." Yu Hong said mercilessly, "Now, immediately Go downstairs and ask your driver to drive you back."

Fang Zhuo was silent for a few seconds, and said, "I drove here by myself."

Yu Hong was surprised, she knew the firm attitude of the man in front of her against drunk driving.

"You're one step away from being taken in and detained by the police in New York and being praised by the Wall Street Journal at length."

Fang Zhuo sighed, "Yes, and he committed the crime knowingly."

It seems a little shameless to know how to commit crimes.

Yu Hong stared at the sober eyes of the man in front of him.

Unlike the last conversation, her previous gaze made this man look away. Now, she looked at him, and he looked at her.

There was silence between the two.

Yu Hong frowned again after a while: "You drank too much, if you really have something to say, you can just say it right here."

Fang Zhuo didn't think chatting by the door was a good choice.

He thought for a while, and made a suggestion: "How about this, why don't you buy me a cup of tea, and I'll talk to you about the fun of the ice core financing, such as old bears and dirty bosses, how about it?"

boom!
The door was closed.

When it was opened again, Yu Hong brought a cup of tea and handed it out: "Okay, let's talk."

Fang Zhuo didn't take the tea, nor did he speak.

Yu Hong directly retracted her hand and was about to close the door.

"What are you afraid of?" Fang Zhuo asked helplessly.

Yu Hong frowned, and said with a smile: "What am I afraid of? You are so strange."

"You are so strange! You are strange and contradictory!" Fang Zhuo raised his voice slightly, "While trusting me to use the large sum of money from the sale of shares that people can never spend in a lifetime, at the same time asking for If you shut me out like this, do you think you are contradictory?"

Yu Hong was speechless.

"Yike was founded by us together. We ran together to find similar products in the market in Shencheng. Do you remember?" Fang Zhuo asked, "Do you remember the one we bought?"

Yu Hong replied indifferently but without thinking: "PMP300."

"How much did it cost?" Fang Zhuo asked again.

Yu Hong obviously remembered it clearly: "1700."

Fang Zhuo let out a sigh of relief: "Yes, the second model we bought was a Jukebox that cost 2000 yuan, you still think it's expensive, do you remember?"

Yu Hong was silent, she remembered that the 2000 6.4G Jukebox was bigger than Sony's Walkman.

"Yike is our joint effort. The development and competition of the US market is the result of your efforts to achieve the current scale. You can leave as soon as you say? I don't understand what kind of shit you are thinking about. But this decision is obviously wrong!"

"I am very happy that I can come to such a conclusion. Since it is wrong, I have an obligation to correct it."

"I can't just sit and watch Mr. Yu leave the company she is so devoted to."

"Just because of some messed up inexplicable reason!"

Fang Zhuo stared at Xiao Yu closely.

"I won't leave immediately." Yu Hong said calmly, "At the reception, I talked a lot with Boss Pan Benpan, and I am sure that he is a manager with outstanding leadership skills. No matter what the reason is, it is now It’s happened, and we’re all going to move on.”

"No, I can't look forward, look what you have made me into? I would even feel guilty for not answering the old bear's call now!" Fang Zhuo spread his hands.

Yu Hong had a stern face, she wanted to laugh when she thought of President Xiong's appearance, but she couldn't!

"Hey, we need to talk about what you are afraid of." Fang Zhuo leaned forward.

Yu Hong was a little irritated: "What am I afraid of? What do you think I am afraid of? Afraid that you will kick me out of the company? Afraid that you will take my money? Or that I will never find a suitable job again?"

She gave a series of rhetorical questions.

"You are afraid of being moved and persuaded by me." Fang Zhuo said word by word.

Yu Hong thought this statement was funny, she stepped aside: "Okay, come on, let me see what kind of ivory you can spit out."

Fang Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and stepped into the door.

Then, he turned around, took the cup of tea from Xiaoyu's hand, and drank half of it with his head raised.

For some reason, the thick-skinned faces of Lao Xiong, Mr. Zun, Mr. Xu, Lao Ni and others in the past were not very good for Xiao Yu, so today's communication was a matter of honesty.

Fang Zhuo glanced at the living room and saw the notebook with the screen still on and a stack of documents on the coffee table.

Yu Hong closed the door, turned around, and glanced at the man angrily: "Pit, what are you going to spit?"

"I want you." Fang Zhuo put down his teacup, thinking that his speaking strategy was honest enough.

Yu Hong was stunned for a few seconds, but she didn't hear "What do I want you to do?" It is easy to say such a thing.

She fixed her eyes on Fang Zhuo.

She turned around and opened the door angrily, and gave the same concise and sincere response: "Get out!"

For some reason, the thick-skinned faces of Mr. Qiu, Lao Qiu, brother-in-law, Mr. Li, Professor Hu and others in the past were not very good in front of Xiao Yu, so today's communication was an open and honest one.

Fang Zhuo ignored Xiao Yu's request, and sat down on the sofa. He glanced at his notebook, which showed Yike's US market analysis for the second quarter.

"Xiao Yu, it's like this. I drank some wine today, so I may not be sober."

Yu Hongmen didn't close the door, so he stood by the door and talked to the man, sarcastically saying, "Really? You didn't seem to say that just now."

"No, no, I mean before I came here, I'm sober now." Fang Zhuo closed his notebook and pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down, I'll talk to you about Yike's market situation this quarter."

Yu Hong closed the door subconsciously, took two steps, stopped, and walked a few more steps before sitting on the chair.

"It's like this. I was not sober before, so I couldn't control my emotions. When I thought that Yike was about to lose its wise and powerful vice president, I felt sad." Fang Zhuo talked eloquently, "So, I Just ask yourself, can I accept Xiao Yu leaving."

He continued: "My inner voice tells me that I can't accept it, and since I can't accept it, then I don't want you to go."

"Is it because your US market cannot lack a vice president, or Mr. Fang Zhuo, who likes to play others on the palm of his hand, cannot lack Xiao Yu who listens to your teachings?" Yu Hong sneered, "OK, since you are so shameless. After all the words have been said, do you still want to come up with the set of 'business is business, personal is personal'?"

After she said this, she calmed down: "Am I in your business map or..."

Rao suddenly really planned to have a completely decisive exchange, Yu Hong still paused before continuing: "Or do you need a character in your life map who can satisfy your possessiveness?"

Fang Zhuo couldn't answer, because there seemed to be two questions, but in fact, there was no suitable answer.

Even if he doesn't want to think about it sharply, his habitual judgment is that Xiao Yu doesn't like the logic of "business returns to business, individual returns to individual", and "possessive desire" is obviously not a good word.

He could only be silent.

However, Fang Zhuo didn't speak, so Yu Hong had no interest in continuing.

She waved her hand: "Okay, Mr. Fang, wouldn't it be good to let you leave a tall enough image in my heart? Why bother?"

Fang Zhuo saw that Xiao Yu didn't continue talking and didn't drive him away, so he thought for a while: "Believe it or not, I couldn't think of what to say to you on the way here, but I just felt that I needed to see you, at least, Say something to your face, too."

"We are friends, we are partners, we are... I think we are spiritually compatible with each other."

"If you have to tell me..."

Yu Hong interrupted: "No one insists you say it, and I don't insist you say it."

"You didn't say what you did, your decision, but your actions let me talk about it." Fang Zhuo said so, and then saw Xiao Yu's brows raised in anger, and changed the subject, "But that Neither is the main thing, the most important thing is that my own heart is forcing me to say it, and I insist on it.”

Fang Zhuo stretched out his left hand, clenched his fist, aimed at himself, and lowered his voice: "Fang Zhuo, Fang Zhuo, what are you doing? Why did you come here? Why did you abandon your principle of not driving after drinking? Why do you insist on getting up even though you are lying on the bed?"

"Fang Zhuo, let me ask you, is there anything you must do or say?"

Fang Zhuo looked at his left hand, did not look at Xiao Yu, and returned to his normal voice: "I don't know if I have to say or do it, it seems that those judgments when facing commercial projects suddenly fail, and those who can face Lies that don't change their colors have no effect."

He shook his left hand up and down, and lowered his voice again: "Hey, Fang Zhuo, then you can put aside all kinds of factors and make complicated things simple. Do you like that so-and-so?"

Fang Zhuo fell into deep thought, and answered his own question: "Yes, I like Yu Hong."

The only sound in the living room was the sound of the two breathing into each other.

Yu Hong pursed her lips.

Fang Zhuo stared at his left hand.

Yu Hong closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She raised her right hand, clenched it into a fist, and slammed Fang Zhuo's left hand hard, then lowered her voice amidst the latter's painful voice: "I have a question, please ask that shameless man for me."

Fang Zhuo rubbed his left hand and lowered his voice: "Okay, okay, tell me, I will definitely ask for you, I know Fang Zhuo very well."

Yu Hong lowered her voice and asked coldly, "Ask him for me, does he like Su Wei?"

She lowered her right fist, raised her chin, and ended this boring play.

The name Su Wei is also like a silencer.

It is an unavoidable name that lies between the two people, even if they can be fooled, it is difficult to deceive each other's inner names.

If this heart is still bound by morality.

Fang Zhuo also put down his left fist, answered himself honestly with a wry smile, and also answered Xiao Yu: "I like it."

Then he added: "I like them all."

Yu Hong stretched out her left arm and pointed in the direction of the door: "Get lost!"

Fang Zhuo stood up silently, ready to leave, many things failed in front of Weiwei.

He didn't want to talk about whether a person can like two people at the same time.

But it is possible, indeed, that two people will like the same person at the same time.

Fang Zhuo was not good at handling such situations, and he didn't look like he was comfortable in a business situation.

"You shouldn't have come today." Yu Hong looked at Fang Zhuo's back and gave the last sentence.

Fang Zhuo turned sideways and looked back at Xiao Yu: "Intellect is like this, but it would be great if this world was full of rationality, reason will tell you, don't stay up late, reason will tell you, don't get angry, reason will tell you, don't Do those stupid things."

He sighed: "However, people are like this, not only rational, I was thinking, if I have to make a mistake in my life, then the mistake is you."

Yu Hong listened to this sentence.

She stood up from the chair, stopped two steps away from Fang Zhuo, and said word by word: "Why should I pay for your mistakes?"

"Why should I use my life, my sense of guilt, and my friendship with Su Wei to pay for your mistakes?"

"Fang Zhuo, Mr. Fang, please tell me, why?"

Fang Zhuo couldn't answer, he was about to surrender when he heard Weiwei's name from Xiaoyu's mouth.

Yu Hong sarcastically said: "Just because you are a rich man? Just because you have achieved commercial success? Just because you are so proud to be sought after everywhere? Am I going to fall in love with the CEO like other women?" ?”

"Tell me, is that so?"

"You rely on your wealth and status to give you the confidence to think that I am willing to pay for your mistakes?"

Yu Hong let out a "ha" and sneered, "Life is wrong?"

She stared at the silent Fang Zhuo.

Fang Zhuo also looked at Xiao Yu, looked into her eyes, there was sarcasm, ridicule, anger, or something else, well, the villain who surrendered was beaten to death.

He shook his head: "Xiao Yu, I can't answer you, but someone can."

Yu Hong said disdainfully: "Who? Even President Fang can't answer, who else? Which of your cronies? Zhang Sohu?"

Fang Zhuo raised his left hand again and clenched it into a fist. Instead of suppressing his voice, he said softly as if teasing a child: "Do you think that because I am poor, humble, not beautiful, and short, I have no soul? heart?"

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Yu Hong thought the man was talking nonsense, but after hearing the whole sentence, she suddenly realized that it was Jane Eyre.

Fang Zhuo still said softly: "You are wrong! I have the same soul as you, and I have exactly the same heart! If God gave me a little beauty and a lot of wealth, I would make it difficult for you to leave me. As hard as it is for me to leave you now."

"I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit, as if both had passed through this world, and stood before God, equal. Come forward—for we are equal!"

Fang Zhuo put down his left hand and looked at Xiao Yu: "It's not wealth, it's not success, it's not customs, it's not morality, it's not someone getting a golden wedding, it's not some rich man raising a group of mistresses, it's just my heart and yours. "

"My soul is asking your soul a question, do you like Fang Zhuo?"

Yu Hong was stunned.

After a while, she gritted her teeth and uttered a sentence: "You are shameless, you are not suitable for being together at all, you are half-hearted! How dare you say such a thing after hearing Weiwei's name!"

"It was a mistake for Weiwei to be with you!"

"Why does she like a man who often messes with her secretary!"

"How can a person like you have the courage..."

Although Fang Zhuo wanted to finish listening to the attack on him by the person in front of him, he had to interrupt and said innocently: "Mr. Yu, may I ask why your words are often mixed up with the secretary?"

"The company has a lot of affairs, don't you need a secretary?"

Yu Hong replied coldly: "My secretaries are all women."

Fang Zhuo nodded and said, "Yes, mine is also a female secretary."

He let out a breath: "Oh, no, I mean, even though mine is a female secretary, I'm somewhat puzzled by your use of the word 'stirring'."

"There have been rumors in the company that you change how many female secretaries a year!" Yu Hong lashed out, "They leave the secretary position and go to other departments. If you want to be unknown, you must do nothing!"

Fang Zhuo: "..."

He sat back on the sofa again, with his right leg on his lap and his left hand on his knee: "Mr. Yu, please sit down. Regarding your misunderstanding about the chairman of the company, I think it can be clarified."

"Perhaps, some secretaries will use some kind of acquiescence to seek convenience in work, but I really don't have the mistakes in this respect as you imagine."

"My reputation..."

"Forget it, what I mean is that I absolutely did not intend to use wealth or status to seduce others, and I have never had any personal communication with the secretary."

"If someone likes me, it's out of appreciation for my hard work and positivity."

"And, you haven't answered my heart's question to your heart yet."

Yu Hong looked at Fang Zhuo who was taking the time to explain the company's rumors, decided to skip this question, and still criticized: "Even if you don't have these things, you are definitely not a good person for love and marriage. I should have persuaded Weiwei in the first place. !"

Fang Zhuo was even more puzzled: "Before today, I didn't seem to have any intention of making mistakes, and obviously, your impression was formed in the past. May I ask, what is wrong with me?"

"A person like you always puts work and business first, and women are never the first in your heart. Even when you are with someone like you, your first reaction may be Don't affect your control over the company." Yu Hong pointed at Fang Zhuo, "Is that so? Does your control over the company take precedence over your significant other? What's the point of being with someone like you?"

No, it shouldn't be like this.

Fang Zhuo thinks not.

When he recalled the close relationship with Weiwei back then, it didn't seem like that.

can you?No way.

Does anyone really think about prenuptial agreement stuff when they're close to each other in order to keep control of the company?

Of course, corporate control does matter, but that's by no means the first thought that comes to mind.

Fang Zhuo thinks that Xiao Yu is wronging him, and thinks that she is avoiding answering a certain positive question while criticizing.

"I don't feel like I am."

"Xiao Yu, no matter what, I think you made some decisions hastily. Instead, you kept paying the bill. Otherwise, I couldn't find a sufficient reason to support your decision."

Yu Hong asked condescendingly: "The business belongs to the business, and the personal belongs to the individual. Who can really distinguish between the two? I am not happy to be in Yike, can't I? You can still tie me to Yike ?"

"Of course not. I sometimes think that it may be that the company is under too much competitive pressure. Apple's mobile phone project has lowered the prospects. It may be that the growing market makes people unable to resist the higher and higher requirements." Fang Zhuo Said so.

Yu Hong glanced at Fang Zhuo coldly.

"Maybe it is true that I overestimated Mr. Yu. Maybe Yu always used my personal feelings as an excuse to leave. She just can't do it. She can't control Yike's overseas market. She just sees other executives who are getting better and better. , I feel that if you don’t let Xian, you will end up in a bad end.” Fang Zhuo said flatly, “Maybe it’s like this, she needs to go back to China to find a comfortable competitive environment, and spend money that can’t be spent in a few lifetimes.”

"I get it, I get it, who doesn't? Does anyone really want to get paid and keep going?"

"It's not a big deal, let's just say it."

Fang Zhuo raised his head and said lightly, "It's okay."

Yu Hong smiled, and commented: "Bad."

She shook her head slightly, picked up her cold water glass, and took a sip of water: "Listening to your nonsense, I really have a problem that I have been puzzled for a long time."

"Please tell me." Fang Zhuo felt as if he was sitting in an office.

"From Guahao.com to Yike to Bingxin, it's hard for me to deny what you just said. What is your hard work for? Your attitude towards work and projects..." Yu Hong looked for a suitable description, "It's like What goal have you been chasing forward? What makes you chase?"

Fang Zhuo touched his heart: "Although I have been chasing forward, I am indeed willing to stop for you..."

Yu Hong interrupted impatiently: "Frankly."

Fang Zhuo took a breath, and said frankly: "But it is true that I am willing to be there for you..."

Yu Hong picked up the document and signaled that she was going to smash it.

Fang Zhuo protested angrily: "I don't want to play female secretary anymore! I just like two people, what's wrong with me!"

"I want to listen to the previous one." Yu Hong was unmoved.

"It's hard for me to answer you, because there is no definite reason." Fang Zhuo leaned on the sofa and said a little tiredly, "Maybe, if you really want to answer, which man can refuse the chance to be a hero?"

"The hero of revitalizing the industry?" Yu Hong was really surprised.

"The market is so big, and there is always a limit to the increase. I am happy to compete with people like Jobs and Zhang Zhongmou. If one day, the dividends in the market are over, I am willing to give it a try. The competitiveness I have competed for is What kind." Fang Zhuo spoke the truth.

Yu Hong pondered.

Fang Zhuo looked at Xiao Yu's thinking eyebrows, and "coughed": "Maybe, Xiao Yu, even though we know each other so well, there is still something you don't understand about me."

Yu Hong looked up.

"Money and status are all enviable things that I already have, but I want to get a historical evaluation after a few years, which is beneficial to so-and-so, such-and-such industry, etc." Fang Zhuo continued. , "Now, I think this evaluation can lower the standard..."

"Although Mr. Fang's personal morals are deficient, his public morals are not ashamed."

"I don't know what else to say..."

Fang Zhuo raised his left hand: "However, most of what I said today is sincere."

"Most?" Yu Hong raised her eyebrows.

Fang Zhuo nodded: "I'm not sure about the prenuptial agreement. Although I know you well, it's always difficult for people to understand themselves."

Yu Hong sneered, "You know me?"

"Yes, I know that you are a naturally competitive person, and you should continue to shine in Yike." Fang Zhuo said solemnly.

"Fang Zhuo, your self-confidence is very good." Yu Hong raised her index finger, "But you have already started to be conceited."

Fang Zhuo asked back, "Really?"

"Yes." Yu Hong finally gave a positive answer to a certain spiritual problem, "I don't like you, not at all."

Fang Zhuo nodded, yes.

"I won't like a man who smokes. This disgust stems from the quarrel between my father and my mother about smoking since I was a child." Yu Hong looked at Fang Zhuo.

Fang Zhuo was shocked. He had smoked in Xiao Yu's car countless times: "I seem to have asked you if you mind if I smoke in your car? Your answer seems to be no mind?"

"Your judgment is wrong, you can't even see my aversion to cigarettes." Yu Hong replied calmly, "Let's stop here, Mr. Fang, I admire your business judgment, and your ability in certain directions and Persistence in the field, but that's all."

"I won't hurt Weiwei, and I hope you don't hurt her either."

"Understand?"

Fang Zhuo nodded: "Understood, but you are not allowed to resign, do you understand?"

Yu Hong wanted to laugh, but held back, and said with a straight face: "I will seriously consider this matter without personal emotions."

"Okay, Mr. Yu." Fang Zhuo blinked, "Then I...gone?"

"Go away." Yu Hong waved.

Fang Zhuo: "..."

He turned his head three times at a step, and left Xiao Yu's house with the sound of closing the door.

Fang Zhuo went downstairs, took a breath of the cold morning air, and subconsciously took out his cigarette.

Then, he stuffed the pack of cigarettes and the lighter into the trash can.

Fang Zhuo walked towards his car, wanted to open the door but stopped, and continued walking forward.

Smoking is harmful to health, please do not drive after drinking.
