Rebirth of Bloody Romance

At the crossroads of fate, the firm belief in the hearts of Li Kuiyong and his companions was like a towering, indestructible rock, always firmly rooted in the depths of their souls. No matter how tortuous the road ahead was, this belief had never wavered.

When the tempting option of "quit" was placed before them, they did not hesitate even for a moment.

It was as if there was an invisible force that made them reject this idea without hesitation.

Because they know very well that if they choose to quit, it would be equivalent to embarking on a path of no return.

This road is full of thorns. Not only will you have to bear the despicable brand of being ungrateful, but you will also forever lose the invaluable trust and unreserved support given by Zhong Yuemin.

For Li Kuiyong and others, Zhong Yuemin is not just a buddy or a friend, but also a solid support in their lives.

Without the strong support of Zhong Yuemin, they would be like a lonely boat without direction in the vast ocean, at the mercy of the surging waves and drifting in the ocean of life.

Those great ambitions will gradually fade away, and what will remain is just a small-scale and mediocre life, and it will be difficult to find opportunities to excel.

In fact, in the most secret corner of everyone's heart, they have already silently agreed with and remembered Zhong Yuemin's sonorous and deafening words: "If you don't make progress, you will be eliminated sooner or later!"

This sentence was like a sharp sword, piercing the fog in their hearts and allowing them to see the future direction clearly. They understood that in this ever-changing world, only by continuous progress can they remain invincible.

Zhong Yuemin’s catchphrase, “Choice is more important than hard work,” has become a guiding light in their hearts.

Everyone knows that in life, the right choice is often more important than blind efforts. Therefore, they can only firmly choose Zhong Yuemin.

Zhong Yuemin sat there quietly, his posture upright but somewhat lazy and casual. His eyes, as deep as the sea, seemed to be able to penetrate the most secret corners of people's hearts, as if examining the souls of everyone present. The whole room was filled with a solemn and depressing atmosphere.

At this moment, Li Kuiyong suddenly stood up. His statement was like a stone thrown hard, smashing into the originally calm lake surface, instantly causing ripples.

Li Kuiyong looked at Zhong Yuemin sincerely and said loudly, "Yuemin, it is indeed my fault this time. Please don't be angry with me!"

Li Kuiyong's sincere and firm voice seemed to travel through the tunnel of time and space, bringing everyone back to the distant year of 1968.

That year, a thrilling life-and-death rescue made their relationship even stronger. Since then, this friendship has been as strong as steel. "From the moment you risked your life to save me in 68, my life, Li Kuiyong, is yours. No matter what happens in this life, I will follow you closely and never retreat a single step!"

Then Gao Songshan stood up. The vicissitudes of life had left deep and shallow marks on his face, but the light in his eyes still shone with hope and perseverance for life.

Gao Songshan spoke slowly. "Yuemin, I am an old man who is about to be buried in the ground. I am lucky to have a place to go now. After so many ups and downs over the years, only when I am with you can my heart be truly at peace. So, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you lead us, I am not afraid of anything!"

Song Xiangjun raised the corners of her mouth, and her smile was as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring, but also revealing a bit of playfulness and cuteness.

Song Xiangjun blinked her big watery eyes and said coquettishly, "As for me, let alone! I just took over this printing factory, and I haven't even sat down yet! If it weren't for you, Zhong Yuemin, helping me with advice and running around, I really wouldn't be able to accomplish anything! So, Zhong Yuemin, you have to be responsible for me to the end!"

Song Xiangjun's words are a double entendre! Zhong Yuemin's mouth twitched.

At this time, Zhang Li also came closer with a smile and said, "That's right! This is especially true for me and sister Hongmei! Now, we can say that we have sold ourselves to this place! Brother Zhong, you have to be nice to us sisters! Otherwise... hum, hum, hum!"

Li Hongmei, who had been standing by and listening quietly, also smiled and nodded to show her agreement. "Brother Zhong, as long as you don't despise our limited abilities and are willing to take us in to work hard together, we will definitely follow you wholeheartedly! No matter how rugged and difficult the road ahead is, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles it is, we will never retreat!"

At this moment, Erhu, who was sitting on the chair, stood up. He held the cup tightly in his right hand and raised it high above his head, with a serious look on his face, and looked straight at Zhong Yuemin who was sitting opposite him.

Erhu said in a sincere and slightly guilty tone. "Brother Zhong, I'll drink this glass of wine first as a sign of respect! It's considered as self-punishment. You are a magnanimous person, so please don't take it to heart! My heart is as clear as a mirror. If it weren't for you, who would I, Erhu, be? I'm afraid I'm nothing! I'm just like the fly lying on the ladle. To put it nicely, I'm probably just a small scoundrel who can't make it to the big stage.

I might be sleeping in a circle of eight people in a room somewhere! If a guy like me is not locked up in the Second Prison for reform, it would be a shame for God! But fortunately, since I started following you, hehe... my life has been really prosperous! Now in Mentougou, everyone knows that I, Erhu, have become a wealthy man with a lot of money!"

As soon as Erhu finished speaking, the others present found it a little funny in their hearts, but when their eyes swept across Zhong Yuemin's tense and unusually serious face, they all forced themselves to hold back their laughter.

You know, in this day and age, Mentougou has countless large and small coal mines, and those coal bosses are all well-known figures in the local area.

Therefore, Erhu's self-deprecating words at this moment were actually mixed with a bit of pride that was difficult to conceal.

At the same time, others can also clearly feel Erhu's deep dependence on Zhong Yuemin from the bottom of his heart.

Zhong Yuemin's deep eyes were flashing with a strange light at this moment, like the bright stars in the night sky, bright and sharp, as if they could pierce through the endless darkness before their eyes and reach the future full of hope and light.

Zhong Yuemin's voice was as deep as thunder, yet as powerful and resonant as a huge bell. Every word he uttered was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone present hard, causing ripples.

"The reason why I want to tell you this is because you are already adults, and are no longer the ignorant children who can do whatever they want and indulge in their youth without any scruples. You must know clearly that the truth of this world is often cruel and ruthless, and the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest is an eternal law.

Especially since we live in this vast land with a total population of 11 billion. With so many people, what we lack most is smart people, people who can endure hardships, and people who have courage. If you don't make progress and are content with the status quo, then the only outcome is to be eliminated. There is no other possibility! "

Li Kuiyong and the others all listened to Zhong Yuemin's words silently. Some of them showed confusion on their faces, some were lost in deep thought, or some were shocked by the huge impact.

Before this, they had never so thoroughly understood the deep meaning behind Zhong Yuemin's words, nor had they ever felt the strong pulse of the times as truly as they did at this moment.

"I know that some of you may think that I have said too much, or even that I am a bit long-winded. However, I must tell you solemnly that these truths cannot be fully understood by just listening! They require you to personally experience the ups and downs and experience the bitterness and sweetness of life. Only when you truly climb to that impressive height can you truly understand from the bottom of your heart every word I say at this moment."

As Zhong Yuemin spoke, his magnetic voice unconsciously revealed a hint of helplessness, but at the same time, it was more of an unswerving belief and persistent pursuit of a better future.

Zhong Yuemin sighed silently, thinking to himself, "Only those who have experienced rebirth can truly understand how precious life is and how urgent time is. It's like me. If I were not a reborn person, I would never be able to clearly realize that the surging waves of the great era are already rolling in!

In this turbulent era, everyone has a strong ambition deep in their hearts, and everyone is working non-stop to climb the mountain of wealth.

Throughout the ages, there have been so many things that have been extremely urgent and pressing! As the saying goes, "time flies like an arrow, and the world is turning." If you want to wait for ten thousand years to accomplish a great cause, that would be too long!

So! We should seize every minute and every second, seize the precious opportunity that is fleeting before us, so that we can achieve something and create a broad sky that belongs to us! "

Zhong Yuemin was filled with emotion and looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if he had penetrated the barriers of time and saw the infinite possibilities of the future.

After sighing, Zhong Yuemin continued, "After the Chinese New Year, there will be various exhibitions at the International Exhibition Center. You can find a way to get tickets and sneak in to have a look. These exhibitions are not only a display of products, but also a weather vane of industry trends and an important window to understand the international industrial level."

Zhong Yuemin's words were full of expectation and encouragement, as if he was opening a door to the world for these people. "There will be an international machine tool and general machinery equipment exhibition in March, which is a good opportunity for us to understand the level of international manufacturing. In June, there will be an Italian packaging and food processing machinery exhibition. Italy has a deep foundation in machinery design and manufacturing, which is worth learning. Oh, by the way, there will also be an international clothing machinery exhibition in May. Hongmei, Zhangli, you must not miss it."

"I understand, Brother Zhong."

Zhong Yuemin knows that these exhibitions are not just a pile of products, but also a collision of technologies and ideas. He hopes that through these exhibitions, these people can see the international level of industry, realize the gap between us and the world, and thus inspire their fighting spirit and innovative spirit.

"When the time comes, you can go over and take a look at the international level of industry, see where the gap is between us, and see what big business is. And then see what our small business worth a few million dollars is nothing. Only by standing at a higher angle can we see the scenery farther away."

Gao Songshan saw that the atmosphere had relaxed a little, so he smiled and joked, "Let's eat. Don't be polite when you come to my place. We won't leave until we are drunk today!"

Seeing that everyone was still standing, Zhong Yuemin also laughed, with a carefree and uninhibited smile. "Sit down, everyone. What I just said is to tell you that this is how the world is. If you are a wolf, you must sharpen your teeth, and if you are a sheep, you must train yourself to be strong. No matter what role we play, we must have our own abilities to gain a firm foothold in this society."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Zhong Yuemin had returned to his usual carefree and unconcerned self.

To be honest, they had never seen Zhong Yuemin so serious before, and his words just now made them feel nervous and depressed.

As Zhong Yuemin finished speaking, the atmosphere at the table gradually became more heated. Everyone began to take turns to toast Zhong Yuemin, and Zhong Yuemin accepted everyone's toasts and drank one cup after another.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone was a little drunk.

At this time, Zhong Yuemin stood up, raised his glass and said, "Believe me, as long as everyone is willing to work hard, this is our era. Each of us has the opportunity to create our own glory and write our own legend."

Zhong Yuemin's words resonated with everyone. They stood up, raised their glasses, and shouted in unison, "Cheers to our era!"
