Paris is located in the center of the Paris Basin in France. In fact, you can’t see the Alps mountains in the city, nor can you see the Pyrenees mountains at the junction of France and Spain. But the setting sun is shining, and the afterglow of dusk is filling the sky.
, also full of sadness.
Alden Gallup drove out of the Arnault family's villa in downtown Paris. The familiar and bustling street scene made him feel trance-like.
He couldn't help but think back to his life. He was French and had been among the best in school since he was a child. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to the Ecole Normale Supérieure, the best university in France.
École Normale Supérieure in Paris was founded in 1793. It was first used to train teachers. Now it offers both liberal arts and science. It has 13 Nobel Prize winners. It has strong strength in the humanities and sciences.
After graduation, he entered the work of Cook Company. In 1999, the "Cook" company engaged in wine business was acquired by lvmh Group.
Three years later, he was able to enter Mr. Arnault's sight, and received Mr. Arnault's key training, and gradually entered the senior management of lvmh Group.
However, he has now continuously betrayed Mr. Arnault's trust in him.
Two lower limits.
A large amount of money is consumed in the stock market.
What he wants to say is: There are too many short funds in the stock market, and he has too little funds in hand.
But is this a justification? Mr Arnault has given him nearly 8.6 billion euros. This is a huge amount of trust.
He brought an indelible shame to Mr. Arnault.
Alden-Gallup Price The car stopped on the road next to the Seine River. He walked to the river and sat down. His hands and feet were weak and he lit a cigarette. In the smoke, he took out his wallet from his pocket.
, take out the family photo inside.
He is forty-five years old and has a happy family. He and his wife Michelle have two sons.
“Goodbye, Michelle. Goodbye, Angelo, Joe, Dad loves you.”
Alden Gallup kissed the family photo passionately, put it in his shirt pocket near his heart, and with a trembling body dropped the half-full cigarette in his hand on the rocks by the river. He stood up and took one step.
Step by step into the river.
The few pedestrians on the shore saw this scene and shouted loudly, "Stop, hey, stop."
In the half-bloody sunset, Alden-Gallup disappeared on the river
Sharp Company was listed on the Paris Stock Exchange today. Although affected by the price limit of LVMH Group, Sharp Company's share price today barely remained above the issue price of 3.12 euros. However, Chairman Qin Ziheng was still in the St. Regis Hotel where he lives.
Hold a celebration banquet, or call it a party.
The guests at the banquet included: two partners, subordinates who came to ring the bell, as well as the sponsors of the listing, accounting firms, and bond underwriters including BNP Paribas.
There are also five well-known Chinese businessmen in Paris, Counselor Wu from the Embassy in France and others.
Chairman Qin Ziheng greeted the arriving guests with a smile on his face. He is forty-eight years old and in the prime of life, and he is very familiar with such social situations.
In any case, this cutting-edge company whose main business is agriculture and biomedicine has an overall market value of 1.1 billion euros even based on today's closing stock price. His personal net worth is nearly 700 million euros.
Become one of the few richest people in the country. This made him smile from ear to ear, and his heart was full of pride. This is his career, this is the pinnacle of his life
After socializing for a while, Qin Ziheng took a wine glass and came to the small circle where his son Qin Xiao and seven or eight young people gathered, and said with a smile: "What are you young people talking about?"
His son Qin Xiao studied in the UK, majoring in "Humanities and Social Sciences" at the University of Cambridge. He is 21 years old this year. His son did not have to worry about his studies. He went to a private high school in China and received a degree from Cambridge University in Birmingham after graduation.
University offers from several universities.
His son is his pride.
He has already planned in his heart that after his son graduates from college next year, he will return to China and join Sharp Company. Twenty years later, he can take over the job with confidence.
When several young people saw Qin Ziheng's arrival, they immediately stopped talking and said hello one after another.
“Uncle Qin, congratulations!”
“Uncle Qin, good evening.”
“Hello, Uncle Qin.”
“Hello! If you need anything at the reception, please tell me.” Qin Ziheng raised his glass and drank a glass of wine with a group of young people. He smiled and said to his son Qin Xiao, “Xiao Xiao, entertain your friends.”
"I will, dad." Qin Xiao replied with a smile. He is tall and handsome, with the sunshine and fair complexion of a young man in his early twenties. He is wearing designer clothes and looks a bit arrogant. He is very annoying to girls.
of attention.
Qin Xiao did not let his father turn around and leave. He introduced the golden couple beside him and said, "Dad, these are my classmates at Cambridge. Zhou Changle and Ye Yan. The three of us are very good friends."
Qin Ziheng smiled and nodded, and chatted with them kindly. His face was calm, but he understood in his heart. Zhou Changle is the eldest son of Zhou Mingyang, one of the top five richest people in the city.
When he had just chatted with Tang Jinxue, the leader of European Chinese businessmen, Tang Jinxue said jokingly: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Jing is in Paris. Why didn't you invite him to the banquet? The stock price of lvmh Group fell to the limit today, which is his masterpiece. Speaking of which,
, you can be considered affected."
He sensed the smell and complimented with a smile: "Mr. Jing and I have no friendship. If there is a chance in the future, I would like to ask Mr. Tang to introduce me to me."
“Easy to say.”
The news that Zhou Mingyang and Jing Gao are having bad relations is no secret in the business world of the entire Yangtze River Delta. Zhou Mingyang has a bad reputation and cannot use tricks in the mall, so he resorts to outside moves.
However, he did not have any unlucky feeling in his heart. After all, his son and Zhou Changle were just junior acquaintances.
Qin Xiao introduced other classmates, Qin Ziheng nodded and chatted for a few words, and then accompanied by his confidant Mao Shengbin, he went to the balcony of the hotel banquet hall to take a breath.
The balcony is located on the fifth floor, where the evening breeze blows and is very comfortable.
The two of them lit cigarettes. Mao Shengbin lowered his voice and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Jing of the Phoenix Group was almost scolded as a dog in the domestic public opinion field a few days ago. I didn't expect that he is very popular abroad."
Qin Ziheng stretched out his finger and nodded at Mao Shengbin with a smile, "That's someone who is leading the Zhaoshi Group."
“That also shows that his strength is not good enough and he can’t control the situation. How come no one dares to follow the pace of Internet giants such as Xiaoma Ge, Baidu Li Yanhong, and Jingdong Dong Ge on the Internet?”
As the two of them were talking, they saw Bernie Augustine, the vice chairman of the Paris Exchange, walking onto the balcony with a bald head on his head.
"Mr. Augustine," Qin Ziheng said hello politely. After all, he would be managed by someone else in the future, and he needed to have a good relationship with this person.
Bernie Augustine seemed not to have heard Qin Ziheng's shout, and walked straight to the balcony, leaning down. His whole body seemed to be in free fall, and finally hit the cement floor of the hotel.
His head exploded like a crushed watermelon.
Qin Ziheng and his subordinate Mao Shengbin were completely dumbfounded, and their bodies were trembling a little, "This"
To be honest, he was very happy today and felt a little unhappy because Bernie Augustine ignored him. But he didn’t expect that Bernie Augustine would commit suicide.
“Ah” screams sounded in the slightly empty night.
The guests in the banquet hall were also quickly alarmed.
Ten minutes later, with the arrival of the police, the reception returned to calm. As the host, Qin Ziheng, accompanied by Counselor Wu and Chinese business leader Tang Jinxue, explained to a police sergeant in the lobby on the fifth floor of the hotel,
Save him the trouble.
After the police chief left, Qin Ziheng couldn't help but ask: "Counsellor Wu, Mr. Tang, why did Bernie Augustine jump from the building?"
Tang Jinxue is in his sixties, wearing a Tang suit and looking energetic. His granddaughter Tang Wenxin is accompanying him.
He smiled and said: "Mr. Qin, let me tell you a rumor. You can judge for yourself whether it is true or not. The fund managed privately by Bernie Augustine had a heavy position in lvmh Group, and lvmh Group fell to the limit for two consecutive days, causing him extremely heavy losses."
Qin Ziheng and his subordinate Mao Shengbin looked at each other, feeling like they were about to break out in a cold sweat.
What nonsense were they talking about on the balcony not long ago?
As the vice chairman of the Paris Stock Exchange, Bernie Augustin is the big shot he needs to curry favor with. And the life and death of such a big shot is in Jing Gao's hands.
What qualifications do they have, or how arrogant are their hearts, before they feel that "the well is not enough"?
Qin Ziheng suddenly had a clear idea in his heart. As the situation in Paris becomes clearer, those people in China who can jump high and lead the rhythm may be in trouble!
