"Can Guizhi Investment be returned to me?" Ye Fang asked.

"Of course, Jiuding Group will be handed over to you again. After all, Jiuding Group still needs a lot of investment in the future. You know, the country has no money now." The old man said straightforwardly.

Ye Fang suddenly wanted to put forward some conditions, but found that there were not many conditions he could put forward now. As for Guizhi's investment, it was just because of a feeling.

"Can I also take off the label that the United States and Britain put on me?" Ye Fang asked.

"As for this matter." The old man hesitated after hearing this, and later said, "My idea is to neither admit nor deny this matter. After all, you will travel between countries in the future. Now the West Countries are not so friendly to us. With this coat, you should be more flexible in dealing with various matters. In fact, you have many ways to avoid it, such as your current entry status."

"You mean to let my identity wander in the gray area so that I can act cheaply, right?" Ye Fang asked back.

"This is a question that needs to be considered from a higher perspective. I know that you are definitely not willing to bear groundless accusations, but when facing national interests, personal honor and disgrace can be ignored. The history of our party has never been short of unknown struggles. The heroes on the hidden front do not care about fame and wealth, personal gains and losses, and make their own contributions to the strength and prosperity of the country. Of course, if you insist on clearing your name, the organization can certainly give you an investigation result, but This doesn’t seem to be suitable for your future work. What do you think?”

"This means that I will have to live and work more low-key in the future." Ye Fang said.

"Yes, you are like a commander of a fleet. Your stage is not in one city or place, or even in one country. Your world should be the whole world. Anything that is inconvenient for us to do can be left to you. From now on Looking at the problem from the perspective of national interests requires the existence of such a person who can play a double act with the country. Maybe at some point he will be the opposite of the country, but that is just an appearance. We know it, and you should know it too. After all, we are all Chinese."

"It is my duty to make money for the country and earn foreign exchange, but this work cannot be completed overnight, and you may not even see the results you want under your government. Are you sure this arrangement is worth it?" Ye Fang asked.

The old man chuckled and said calmly, "Of course we know that the rewards of this work may be five years, ten years, or even longer. But we still have to do it, and the career we have to do is for future generations. To live a stable and happy life is the mission and pursuit of Communists."

Ye Fang finally asked, "Are there people like me in the country?"

The old man said without any hesitation, "I must admit that there are many people working for the country, but with your identity and background, you are the only one who can unite between countries. After all, the Russian President's Chinese son-in-law is only You are the only one recognized by the little princes in the Middle East as their big brother. This cannot be replaced by anyone, so you are the only one. We hope that you can grow up quickly in the next five to ten years. After all, we have gone from technology to The military needs too much money, and a huge amount of money will be invested in just the transformation of an aircraft carrier, and this does not include the investment of the entire ocean fleet, so you should know how heavy the tasks on your shoulders are."

"Old man, I am just an ordinary person, not a money printing machine. You have explained so much at once, and I feel that there will be a lot of pressure on me." Ye Fang said with a bitter smile.

The old man said calmly, "There is an old Chinese saying, do your best in people and affairs and obey fate. China is at a critical juncture of a major change that has not happened in a century. Every year from now on is precious to the development of the country. We must seize every second. After careful consideration, when the country becomes prosperous and strong in ten or even 20 years, we will only say one sentence when we recall this experience. Fortunately, China had me at that time. I think this is enough. Not everyone will stay in the development process of the country. Are you right about leaving footprints?"

At this point, the old man stood up as if to end the conversation. Ye Fang also stood up. At this time, Ye Fang had already roughly guessed the identity of the old man.

"Young man, time waits for no one! The next ten years belong to us, and they also belong to you. I will give you a poem, go to the water poor place, sit and watch the clouds rise. See you again!" After saying this, the old man drifted away, and he The figure behind him did not go out, but walked towards Ye Fang.

This is a middle-aged man with a scholarly air. Perhaps he has been with the superior for a long time, so he naturally carries an intimidating aura.

"This is the chief's personal phone number. My phone number is on the back. The chief is usually busy with work. Try not to call him unless there is something important. If you have anything to coordinate, you can contact me directly. My name is Li Xiaoxiong." After speaking, Li Xiaoxiong handed it to Ye Fang took his business card and left.

Ye Fang knew that only a handful of people in China knew about this phone number. He glanced at the phone number on the business card, silently wrote down the number, and then walked out of the room.

When he walked out of the room, he saw Xiang Guo, who had been waiting outside. Xiang Guo didn't talk too much and said to Ye Fang, "Let's go."

After walking out of the sanatorium, Nan saw Ye Fang coming out and rushed to greet him, saying, "A convoy just left here, and the boss is here."

Ye Fang nodded and then rushed to Xiang Guo and said, "Brother Xiang, let's separate here. I'll go back to Guizhi to invest."

"Okay, Pu Yuze's matter..."

Ye Fang smiled, patted Xiang Guo's shoulder and said, "I didn't take it to heart at all. I left."

As he said that, Ye Fang got into the car and disappeared from Xiang Guo's sight. Xiang Guo knew that from this day forward, Ye Fang had officially returned, and was even more powerful than the one he was a year ago, although he didn't know what the top management was like. What did he talk about with Ye Fang, but he could guess from Ye Fang's calm and calm expression that Ye Fang, who returned this time, must have received a great promise. In the future, the Ye family will definitely become the super power in the capital in Ye Fang's hands. Aristocratic family, no! It should be a super chaebol!

"Pu Yuze, Pu Yuze! You have walked around the gate of hell today without knowing it!" Thinking of this, Xiang Guo felt that he had to go see Pu Yuze again and explain it to him, otherwise this kid would provoke Ye Fang again without knowing the importance of it. , the Pu family is expected to be expelled from the capital.

On the way to Guizhi to invest, Ye Fang carefully recalled what Mr. W said to him, both the literal meaning and the sub-literal meaning, and he had to think carefully about it.

"Nanyi, call Wang Junhe. No matter where they are, ask them to invest in Guizhi and wait for me." Ye Fang said calmly.

"Yes." Nan Yi agreed.

At this time, Wang Junhe was watering the flowers in the garden of his villa in the capital. Junhe Insurance was now taken over by the receivership team, and he was unemployed as a consultant. Director Sun from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission came to the takeover team and was appointed as the interim head of Junhe Insurance to exercise the powers of the chairman on his behalf. In Wang Junhe's words, "This grandson doesn't understand any business!" He made the company's business a mess. , after several quarrels with him, Wang Junhe happened to catch up with the virus outbreak in Beijing and the company closed down. After that, Wang Junhe stayed at home completely.

During the shutdown period, the company paid each employee a basic salary, which was basically able to maintain the employees' livelihood. Except for the normal business in places where the virus was not serious, the Beijing head office all worked from home, which also led to the rapid development of the entire Junhe insurance business. has declined, and the current business volume is less than one-third of what it was at its peak.

"Ye Fang, Ye Fang, are you dead or alive? Even if you are dead, you can still give me a dream. Where will you go in the future?" Wang Junhe sighed lightly and continued to water the flowers.

At this time, a mobile phone on the coffee table rang. This mobile phone was specially configured by Ye Fang for the group executives. Wang Junhe and Bi Xingfa occasionally contacted each other when Ye Fang was away, but since the virus outbreak, this mobile phone has It never rang again.

Wang Junhe thought it was Bi Xingfa, but after looking at the phone number, it turned out to be Nan Yi.

"Guizhi Investment Group, Mr. Ye is back." Nan Yi spoke simply and clearly, and then hung up the phone.

Wang Junhe held the phone and reflected for a long time. He felt like he was dreaming, "She said Mr. Ye is back?! Mr. Ye is back?! Mr. Ye is back!" Wang Junhe held the phone and laughed. He quickly changed his clothes and took the car straight to the Guizhi Investment Building.

At the same time, Cai Xiaoling, Bi Xingfa, Gu Zhuoyi, Li Jiayi and Miao Qianqian all received calls to gather at Guizhi Investment. Almost everyone had the same reaction as Wang Junhe, and went straight to Guizhi Investment without stopping. Everyone was waiting for Ye Fang at the door of the building.

Soon Ye Fang's car stopped at the door of the building. When Ye Fang stepped out of the car, Wang Jun and these people immediately burst into cheers, and everyone rushed towards Ye Fang with tears in their eyes.

Ye Fang deeply felt the enthusiasm of these revolutionary partners for him, shaking hands or hugging everyone, and the scene of crying with joy moved everyone.

"Mr. Ye, it's great that you are okay!"

"Mr. Ye, we feel hopeful when you come back."

"Mr. Ye, you have to make the decision for us!"

......

Everyone was chatting away, Ye Fang nodded slightly, and then said, "Let's go upstairs."

Although it was just a plain sentence, it was like an imperial edict to everyone. Everyone automatically separated on both sides to make way for Ye Fang. Ye Fang walked at the front with a smile on his face, followed by Cai Xiaoling, Wang Junhe and Bi Xingfa. Everyone followed Ye Fang closely towards Guizhi Investment on the top floor of the building.

The service staff on the first floor of the building looked at the momentum of Ye Fang and his group and did not dare to stop them. They just called the front desk of Guizhi Investment directly. The front desk quickly reported the incident to the leaders of the takeover team who were meeting in the company. As soon as the people in the takeover team heard that Cai Xiaoling, Wang Jun, and these former senior executives of Guizhi Investment came to the group together, they immediately felt that something was wrong. On the one hand, they quickly called security, and on the other hand, they stood in line in the conference room, waiting for the arrival of Ye Fang and his party.

As soon as Ye Fang and his group walked out of the phone, four security guards stopped them not far away. Before Ye Fang could say anything, Nan Yi waved his hands and Lu Jiuge and others knocked the security guards to the ground. Ye Fang kept walking straight to his office. go.

Some of the employees at Guizhi Investment knew Ye Fang, and some were new and had never met Ye Fang. Everyone stood up when they saw Ye Fang coming in with his many former executives, and everyone bowed to Ye Fang to say hello. , although the rumors that Ye Fang was a spy were very popular more than a year ago, no one believed that Ye Fang was a bad person.

Now that Ye Fang dares to appear openly in the company, this in itself is a signal and a proof.

"Mr. Cai, what do you want to do? Do you have any opinions that can be expressed through formal channels? What do you want to do by bringing so many people to the group headquarters?" The speaker was a balding man in his 50s. Although his figure was a bit bloated, he was very imposing. Feet, two eyes kept looking at the leader Ye Fang, seeming to guess Ye Fang's identity.

Today is the first meeting of the Guizhi Investment takeover team after the virus was eradicated. The main topic is to study the work for the second half of the year. Although these people in the takeover team do not understand the business of Guizhi Investment at all, after all, their identities should be used to do superficial work here. Still have to do it.

"This person is the leader of the takeover team and the current interim head of Guizhi Investment. His name is Liu Changyou. He turned out to be a boss of a unit affiliated with the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Beijing." Cai Xiaoling whispered the report in Ye Fang's ear.

Ye Fang nodded slightly, smiled at Liu Changyou and said politely, "Team Leader Liu, right?"

"I am, who are you?" Liu Changyou looked up and down at Ye Fang in front of him with an unkind expression. He was not very young, but he naturally showed a strong aura of superiority, which he did not dare to underestimate.

"You don't deserve to know who I am. From now on, your takeover team can withdraw. You are no longer needed here." When he said this, Ye Fang didn't have a chance for Liu Changyou to answer, so he walked directly around Liu Changyou and walked towards his office.

"Hey...hey...who are you, what do you mean, security guard! Security guard!" Liu Changyou shouted loudly.

"Be safe!" Bi Xingfa had long disliked this Liu Changyou, but now that Ye Fang was here, he didn't even notice this wine bag and rice bag. He pressed his hand on Liu Changyou's face and shouted softly, "Get out of here! This is My boss, get out of the way!”

Lu Jiuge and others directly pulled Liu Changyou and the six or seven men behind him aside to make way for a passage. Ye Fang walked into his office and saw that the entire office had changed a lot, and even all the desks and chairs had been replaced.

Ye Fang frowned slightly. He knew that his set of tables and chairs was valuable, and he had not even sat on them a few times. He did not expect that he had not been back for more than a year and even replaced all the tables, chairs and benches.

Ye Fang glanced at the furniture in the room one by one, then walked towards the conference table, picked up a work plan material for the second half of the year on the conference table, flipped through it, and sneered again and again.

"Team Leader Liu, the bullshit work plan for the second half of the year is actually some kind of inspection project in Europe and the United States. Do you think my company's money is brought by the strong wind, and it can cause you such trouble?!"

As he spoke, Ye Fang threw the report materials heavily on the conference table. Ye Fang exuded a terrifying aura. No one dared to speak. The entire conference room was extremely quiet for a moment.
