mutual benefit [gl]

Xu Gong's car drove all the way to a high-end Japanese restaurant.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, a waiter stepped forward and led him into a private room in the inner room of the restaurant.

Pushing open the lattice door, Xu Gong saw Chen Yuanyang sitting inside.

He sighed secretly, entered the room, and closed the door behind his back.

Seeing Xu Gong coming, Chen Yuanyang hurriedly stood up, with a frightened yet flattering smile on his face.

"Uncle Xu, you are here."

Xu Gong nodded feebly, bent over and sat on the tatami.

Seeing this, Chen Yuanyang quickly sat down, and then poured wine for Xu Gong.

He was about to pour the wine, but Xu Gong waved his hand and said, "I'm driving."

"Oh……"

Chen Yuanyang sneered, and put down the celadon jug in his hand stiffly.

What Xu Gong had in mind was blocked like a few tons of boulders. He really didn't have the heart to eat, so he didn't even take off his coat.

He raised his eyes and glanced worriedly at Chen Yuanyang who was sitting across from him and wearing a shirt, seeing that his expression was also not good.

Xu Gong sighed, swallowed the words of reproach stuck in his throat with difficulty, and said in a low voice:

"You were too careless this time!"

Chen Yuanyang said with a sad face: "Uncle Xu, I really didn't expect..."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass angrily, raised his head and drank it down in one gulp.

"Ah..." He made a sound in relief, and put the wine glass on the table vigorously.

"I don't know which bastard it is, but even dug up the accident of the year before last!"

Xu Gong stretched out his hand and knocked on the table. He frowned and growled, "How did you explain the accident the year before last to the family of the deceased?! Didn't you say that the deceased had a heart attack? How did it become an accident again?!"

"I……"

Chen Yuanyang glanced at Xu Gong with some guilt, seeing Xu Gong's solemn expression, he had no choice but to murmur:

"You, you also know... that piling machine is very expensive. It needs to be repaired after a few times of use. I have so many projects here, and I don't know how much it will cost just for the maintenance of the machine... So ,so……"

"So what?!" Xu Gong pressed on step by step.

"So, so... I just use manpower to dig wells. You know, the wells where the pipelines are placed are not shallow, and lack of oxygen... also happens from time to time..."

"Yuan Yang, Yuan Yang!" Xu Gong patted the table, hating iron for not being steel, and said, "Why are you so ignorant?!"

"I also want to save costs!" Chen Yuanyang argued.

"To put it bluntly, how much money does a worker have to pay when he dies? If he pays 10,000+20, his family members will be satisfied. But for machine maintenance, hundreds of thousands or even millions can't be paid! I, I am also The lesser of two evils..."

"But YuanYang, have you ever thought about what will happen once this matter is exposed? The stock market has fallen like this, and the public opinion is uproarious. Do you think you can stop this time with a loss of hundreds of thousands or millions? !"

After Xu Gong finished speaking, he helplessly shook his head and stroked his forehead.

"Then Xu, Uncle Xu... I, my dad..."

Xu Gong let out a long sigh, raised his eyelids and looked at Chen Yuanyang wearily, and said:

"The chairman's practice has always been to let you two brothers suppress each other... Although you made a big mistake this time, the chairman will not really do anything to you in order to suppress the deputy general manager..."

As soon as Chen Yuanyang heard that he would not be kicked out this time, he felt relieved, immediately picked up a piece of tender red sashimi with his chopsticks, dipped some wasabi in the chopsticks and put it in the middle of the fish fillet, then gently folded the fish fillet , lightly dipped in some soy sauce.

He picked up the vegetables in one hand, and held a small clean celadon dish in the other to prevent the dipping sauce from dripping.

Chen Yuanyang started to eat without hesitation, he sipped the fresh fragrance of the food on his lips, and closed his eyes intoxicated.

"Well...the taste of this store is really good."

After he finished speaking, he opened his eyes to look at Xu Gong, and said with a smile:

"You try it too?"

Xu Gong looked at Chen Yuanyang in front of him with complicated emotions.

"What are you going to do?" he asked.

Chen Yuanyang smiled nonchalantly and said:

"What else can I do? Of course, we should stay the same. Lose money, apologize, it's over."

"Don't think it's a trivial matter, Yuan Yang." Xu Gong frowned, "The chairman split up the family, but he won't let go of this property at all...you lost his money, he is It must be brought back."

"Uncle Xu," Chen Yuanyang raised his head and laughed.

"Why did you say that the stock price fell? Hmm? Could it be that the stockholders collectively want to mourn for those dead? Are they selling stocks because they want to complain about their injustice?"

Xu Gong didn't speak.

"Of course not!" Chen Yuanyang laughed loudly, "They are afraid that they will lose money, so they will sell. As long as I release some news in the future to make them feel that this stock is profitable, then they will be like this fish. They swam back in a swarm of bees."

Chen Yuanyang pointed to the sashimi on the table.

"At that time, it will still be like this sashimi..."

"You are manipulating the market!" Xu Gong lowered his voice, "You are breaking the law, do you know that?!"

Chen Yuanyang raised his eyebrows, he sneered and said:

"Uncle Xu, come on, who are you serving? It's Chen Zhishan, Chairman Chen. Breaking the law?"

He burst into a burst of sharp laughter.

"Who are you pretending to be a good law-abiding citizen with now?"

Xu Gong sighed, he wanted to say something more, but seeing Chen Yuanyang's complacent expression, he swallowed the words back.

"Crisis public relations, you have to listen to me this time." Xu Gong said with a straight face.

"Then tell me, I will listen to Uncle Xu."

"Not to mention the apology and compensation. In fact, the source of the problem is not the family of the deceased. It is the media,"

Xu Gong raised his head and said, "You have to find a way to silence the media."

Chen Yuanyang lowered his face, and said: "Don't mention it... Before that bastard Chen Yuanshuo used his father-in-law's relationship to publish a bullshit article in the Z City Daily, which was reprinted by half of the media circle. As a result, netizens are now criticizing it. The media all scolded City Z Daily for eating human blood steamed buns, which made me directly offend half of the media."

Chen Yuanyang spread his hands and said:

"When something happened this time, the media stomped me to the ground, as if eight generations of my ancestors had to be flogged to show that they had professional ethics."

As Chen Yuanyang said, he took a sip of the mulled wine.

Xu Gong was too lazy to listen to his complaints, he said: "The press conference is inevitable, during this time, you are not allowed to go anywhere except the company and home, especially in places like this!"

Xu Gong looked around, frowning even deeper.

"You also know that the media are finding fault with you now, and you still go to such high-end restaurants. The family members of the deceased cried and wiped their tears all day long, but you are eating delicacies here! Who is scolded if you don't get scolded? !"

When Chen Yuanyang heard this, he quickly put down his chopsticks in fright.

"Also, take advantage of this time to take someone with you and go to the house of the bitter master." Xu Gong said while glaring at Chen Yuanyang. Take it, you hear me!"

"This... just losing money is not enough."

"Yuanyang, who do you think those people are, beggars? That's human life! You are now an indirect murderer, don't you understand?!"

Chen Yuanyang pursed his lips and didn't dare to refute.

"As for the media, don't make the press conference bigger. The bigger the booth, the more you can't hold it. You should choose media that are not so closely related to the Z City Daily, and may even compete with the media. At the press conference In fact, besides admitting your mistakes, you should show more pain for the deceased. As for the accident the year before last..."

Xu Gong sighed and said helplessly:

"Let's push it to your subordinates, just say that you don't know, understand?"

Chen Yuanyang nodded like pounding garlic.

"After the press conference, you take your wife to visit the children in impoverished mountainous areas and donate some money...By the way, express your sense of responsibility to the society, willing to work with the government to make the society better and better .”

"I understand, Uncle Xu." Chen Yuanyang chuckled, he gave a thumbs up and said, "You are really tall."

Xu Gong glanced at him and stood up.

"I'm leaving, and you should leave here quickly."

After he finished speaking, he took another deep look at Chen Yuanyang, turned and left.

Walking out of the restaurant, Xu Gong took out his gloves from his pocket and put them on. He looked up at the pale sky and felt his head was swollen.

If there was a third choice back then, it was absolutely impossible for him to choose Chen Yuanyang.

It's a pity that he had already seen that although Chen Yuanshuo was smarter than Chen Yuanyang, he was a ruthless guy. If he reached the top of the Chen Group in the end, he would be the first person to be kicked out.

If there is a third option,

Xu Gong stopped thinking about it, shook his head, and got into the car.

Sitting in the study at home, Chen Yuanshuo was happy.

He walked out of the study and went downstairs. His wife, Cui Jinxian, had just baked the biscuits. Seeing him coming downstairs, she smiled and asked if she wanted afternoon tea.

Chen Yuanshuo went downstairs quickly, he walked up to Cui Jinxian, hugged her and spun around her.

Cui Jinxian was startled at first, then beat him coquettishly, and told him to let him down.

"Chen Yuanyang is over, over, hahahahaha—" Chen Yuanshuo laughed.

"How?" Cui Jinxian asked.

"This time he fell miserably. If... I take advantage of this time to buy a large amount of shares in Chen's Real Estate, I will become a major shareholder of Chen's Real Estate!"

But Cui Jinxian was not too excited when she heard the news, she smiled and said:

"Then you plan to..."

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time, the last time the timing was not ripe, this time, I must cut off Chen Yuanyang's arm!"

Seeing her husband so happy, Cui Jinxian pursed her lips and smiled, but her brain kept running.

After a while, she gently hugged Chen Yuanshuo's shoulder and said, "Don't get excited, the market is closed today anyway, why don't you..."

She looked at Chen Yuanshuo's face and said softly:

Fig, candied apple, kiwi, Yili yogurt, yam, durian Melaleuca, lin, three herbs, and

"You might as well ask Mr. Zhao for his opinion."

Chen Yuanshuo was taken aback for a moment, then curled his lips and said contemptuously, "That old thing Zhao Zhizhen?"

"Don't say that," Cui Jinxian said softly, "Mr. Zhao has been with his father longer than Xu Tezhu. What you are going to do is not a trivial matter... Listening to what he says, there is no harm in the end."

Zhao Zhizhen is the special assistant announced by Chen Zhishan, except for Xu Gong.

He was a few years older than Xu Gong, and he followed Chen Zhishan earlier than Xu Gong, but for some reason, Chen Zhishan used Xu Gong more than him.

It's a pity that when Chen Yuanshuo went to look for Xu Gong, Xu Gong had already joined Chen Yuanyang's faction. Chen Yuanshuo had no choice but to ask Zhao Zhizhen.

But Zhao Zhizhen was not favored by Chen Zhishan's side, and Chen Yuanshuo always felt that this relationship was for nothing.

But since Cui Jinxian had already said it today, Chen Yuanshuo respected Cui Jinxian after all, so he actually called Zhao Zhizhen.

When he received the call, Zhao Zhizhen was picking birds in the flower and bird market. Chen Yuanshuo got a little impatient when he heard it, and said to wait until he came back, then hung up the phone.

He raised his eyes to look at Cui Jinxian, and complained: "This old man has gone to mess with the birds. It seems that the old man really doesn't intend to use him anymore."

Cui Jinxian smiled lightly, but said nothing.
