drowning tide

It has been several hours since the reception ended, and even the hands of the clock quietly pointed to the number 12, but for many people, this is the beginning of the night life.

Many windows on the south side of the manor are still lit, and one of them belongs to Wen Zhicheng, the young master of the Wen family.

Wen Zhicheng was in front of the desk, pretending to read an annotated business contract.

He is a mediocre-looking middle-aged man who has inherited some of his parents' good looks. He may have had a close relationship with the word handsome when he was young, but the ruthless years have taken away his hair and waistline, and left him with alopecia areata With his out-of-shape figure, he stood with his father Wen Zhengting and his half-brother Wen Fan a few times, which is a true portrayal of the three generations of old, middle-aged and young.

This contract is bilingual in Chinese and English, in duplicate. When Yin Yuan handed it to him the day before yesterday, he said that he must read it all before next week-whether the English version is understandable or not, at least he must tick the Chinese version. Read all the parts.

He was too inattentive to watch, and several times he dozed off and picked it up to continue watching, not even knowing that the contract was overturned.

"Mr. Wen, the person has been sent there as you said."

It just so happened that the people below came to report, Wen Zhicheng hurriedly put down the things in his hands, as if it was some hot potato, stood up and welcomed him into the room, "No problem, right?"

"At least not yet." This person is Wen Zhicheng's confidant, otherwise he would not have entrusted such an important matter to him.

Hearing that the person was successfully delivered to Luo Yi's bed, his frown relaxed a little.

Luo Yi was much younger than him by a whole round, relying on his father's early death to successfully climb up to his father Wen Zhengting's generation, even he, the boss of the Wen family, had to carefully curry favor with him.

It’s not like when his daughter was in elementary school when he was his age, Luo Yi is still single in his 30s this year. Others are single because they don’t get married. In fact, they can enjoy everything without burdening themselves. He is single because he doesn’t even find a mistress , living like an ascetic, the only traceable love history is a girlfriend in college.

The girl he sent over was exactly like Luo Yi's ex-girlfriend. It can be said that success or failure depends on one action.

"It seems that we made the right bet." Wen Zhicheng rubbed his hands together, the excitement in his eyes could hardly be concealed, "Anyway, the contract over there hasn't been signed yet, so it's up to each individual to decide who gets the final prize."

Speaking of this, he got angry, his cheap younger brother talked about a deal with Luo Yi some time ago - Luo Yi wanted to enter the shipping industry, of course he couldn't get around the Wen family who are the leader of this industry, so he chose Wen Fan and not him.

The old man is eccentric and dislikes him. He has always known it, especially when it comes to the career benefits of the two of them: Wen Fan went directly to work in the head office after graduating from university and returned to China, and then set up his own business, with the strong support of his father. Still wandering around on the edge, and now he is "assigned to the frontier" and driven to work in Shengjiang, which is on the verge of loss and bankruptcy all the year round.

Wen Zhicheng heard from the old employees who stayed behind that the loss of Shengjiang was only a matter of the past ten years. At that time, Shengjiang was the leader of the water transportation industry in Rongcheng, and had long-term business relationships with the best shipyards in Germany. It can be called a money-making machine.

However, since the former chairman passed away unexpectedly and was merged into Wen's, Wen Zhengting readjusted Shengjiang's resource structure and transferred all the elite talents to other branches. Without its backbone, it has never recovered.

Originally, Shengjiang should have entered bankruptcy liquidation a few years ago, but Wen Zhengting couldn't stand his wife crying, so he passed it on to his eldest son, and threatened, "Whenever Shengjiang stops losing money, I will consider re-establishing it in that year." will".Wen Zhengting’s will is very mysterious. No one has seen it except the lawyer himself. It is said that he is extremely unfriendly to his eldest son and wife. He only left them some real estate and dead money. The company’s shares and other related properties have nothing to do with them. .

Wen Zhicheng, who had never had management experience, became the chairman of Shengjiang Shipping. For this promise that seemed like a joke, Mrs. Wen worked hard and did not hesitate to spend her own money to make her son feel good. The bastard of life" snatched all the family property.

Helplessly, the quagmire of Shengjiang is more difficult than they imagined. The time, energy and money invested in are like mud cows. In addition, Wen Zhicheng, the university he took over from, is so-so, and it is completely a fake diploma. Now After so many years of graduation, I have long forgotten that little knowledge. I usually feel a pain in my head when I look at the financial statements and contracts sent by the people below, and it is like going to work.

"Go and call Yin Yuan over for me."

In his eyes, these piles of forms are no different from heavenly books, and he doesn't care that this has reached the point where normal people sleep, he just wants to ask someone to come and solve it quickly.

If it is said that in the past few years he was muddling along in Shengjiang, then the turning point began when his uncle sent this man named Yin Yuan to him two and a half years ago.

This man was born in the United States. He was originally a black family. He followed his mother who smuggled into the past and worked as a prostitute in the slums of San Francisco. It may be that he was destined not to be ordinary. The third son, Hua Jingyang, took a fancy to him and has been loyally serving Hua Yi since then.Hua Jingyang helped him solve the issue of certificates, and specially invited tutors to teach him various things.A poor boy with good brains like him has to seize the opportunity to climb up, for fear of being abandoned by his master, so this person understands financial management, investment analysis, and can speak, write, read and write four languages ​​including German and French. languages.

The good times don't last long, the boss Hua Yiming immediately dies, several sons are fighting for power, the youngest is unlucky, and is dealt with by two elder brothers, take precautions, one day when the car is halfway there, he is shot Headshot.

After Hua Jingyang's death, the people under him either voted for him or quit. Just this Yin Yuan, perhaps in order to repay the kindness of knowing him back then, killed the traitor driver who betrayed Hua Jingyang with a gun. With the boss' confidant who plotted the whole murder, this feat set off a storm in the local circle, and also brought him a fatal disaster.Yin Yuan, who was hunted down by the entire Chinese group and even the Chinese gang in San Francisco, met Wen Zhicheng's uncle when he was desperate, and offered his loyalty in exchange for helping him escape.

Wen Zhicheng had seen the scars on this person's body, they were genuine scars left in the gang fight, it was so disgusting that people didn't want to take a second look.Since he was loyal to his former master to the point of reckless revenge, then he should do the same for me.With this in mind, he began to reuse this man and disclosed many key information of the company to him. This man did not disappoint him. He was there to help and replace him when necessary. It's so ugly, the amount of losses has been declining year after year, and maybe it will be able to break even in a few years.

It was good to be like this, but something happened recently that made him unable to wait any longer. If he continues to wait like this, maybe before he can reverse the company's losses, the Wen family will all fall into the hands of that bastard.

In order for him to have the confidence to challenge that brat Wen Fan, Luo Yi's big deal is very important.The quotation they gave was much lower than Wen Fan's - as long as the business can be cut off from there, Sheng Jiang's financial report will definitely improve greatly.

Yin Yuan made a plan for him, and while he was doing it, he was not at ease, so behind Yin Yuan's right-hand assistant and other people, he planned to send someone to Luo Yi's side.

"Mr. Wen, are you looking for me?"

Wen Zhicheng was relieved by his calling.So what if you have the ability, don't you have to work honestly under my hands?

There are three Mr. Wen in this room, and the one who can really be called Mr. Wen is actually only the one who lives in the north, but the people at the bottom will be careful, and they will always call their immediate boss Mr. Wen except in front of Wen Zhengting.

"Nothing else, I don't have time or energy to read it, just pick the key points and talk about it for me." Wen Zhicheng patted the thick stack of contracts, "It's getting late, remember to keep it simple It's too difficult, I dozed off listening to it."

Yin Yuan showed a very helpless smile, "Okay, I understand." He took the contract and started from the second page.

His voice is very magnetic, not too high-pitched nor too low-pitched, and the mandarin is so standard that you can hardly hear a foreigner's accent. It is the most suitable kind of speech. Wen Zhicheng listened and looked at it casually. The good buttons on the chest reveal the faint outline of the pectoral muscles and the shadow of a little scar.Wen Zhicheng took the time to think, should he go to the gym for two days?He then rejected the proposal.No matter how fat he is, as long as he still sits in the position of the eldest son of the Wen family and has some money, people who love vanity will naturally fall in their arms.

"At that time, the figure of 37% can be discussed at the conference table, but it is best not to exceed 4%. Affected by the increase in crude oil prices in recent years, the market has been sluggish, and the price reported there is 41%, which fluctuates up and down. Within 3%..."

Even though Yin Yuan tried his best to make it easy to understand, these boring numerical terms and policies still made him a head and a head, so he wanted to say something else to mediate the atmosphere.

"I heard that Ali is pestering you again?"

Yin Yuan stopped talking.

"Is there anything you can't tell me? I also care about you and Ah Li."

Wen Zhicheng asked the question knowingly.No matter how many secrets there are behind the scenes, at least on the surface he has always been the young master of the Wen family, and it is impossible not to hear some things from his ears.

"No, miss asked me to be her dance partner tonight, but I refused." Yin Yuan's attitude was very respectful, but Wen Zhicheng could hear a bit of regretful forbearance and a wordless sigh.

If I really came to power, I would marry Ali to him, since it's just a daughter anyway.Such an idea suddenly popped up in Wen Zhicheng's not brilliant mind.As a tool, this man is really impeccable. Strictly speaking, the grace of saving his life is counted on his uncle, so it is better to have some in-law relationship so that this loyalty can be completely passed on to himself.

"Some jewelry is very expensive, but it's not completely untouchable, but you have to be the one who deserves it-identity, status, money, all of which are indispensable."

And before that day, the more unavailable the better, Wen Li should be like the carrot hanging in front of the donkey for this man.

Wen Zhicheng taught him proudly, "I look up to a young man like you, don't let me down."

Yin Yuan lowered his head, "Thank you for your teaching, I have been taught."
