Chapter 29 He House Banquet
On November 3, Li Guangyu came to He Zuozhi's mansion early after lunch. Today is his 60th birthday. Since his 60th birthday was held last year, He Zuozhi's birthday today is just a family dinner. Juniors from various branches of the He family will come, including He Hongyi, He Chaoqiong, He Hongqing and others.
At He Zuozhi's home, near five o'clock in the afternoon, representatives of the He family came one after another, each of whom was the first heir of the family. This was not only a respect for He Zuozhi, but also a relationship between the He family and Li Guangyu. During this year, Li Guangyu's development was too amazing, and he was about to lift Bao Yugang's position as the richest man in Xiangjiang, so it was an idea that many families in Xiangjiang had to date all of them.
After coming in and saying hello to He Zuozhi, Hongyi came to Li Guangyu and said, "Guangyu, you are also a shareholder of the Industrial and Commercial Daily. If you have time, go to the company more often?"
Li Guangyu said to him: "You have uncle in the newspaper, please look at me. What else can I worry about? If I go there, aren't I afraid of causing trouble for the company?"
"What's causing trouble? I think you're afraid of causing trouble for yourself. I said that Xiangyu Daily is now in Xiangjiang, and its sales have been suppressed by Mingbao, Oriental Daily, xīng dǎo rì bào. You are also a shareholder of the Industrial and Commercial Daily, so can't you think of an idea to increase sales for the Industrial and Commercial Daily?"
When Li Guangyu heard He Hongyi contacted him and asked him to think of a way to increase sales of the Industrial and Commercial Daily. He thought for a while and said, "Uncle, your Industrial and Commercial Daily is a relatively serious newspaper. I don't have any special suggestions, but I can give you some exclusive information about our company. I think this should be of some help to the company."
He Hongyi was a little disappointed when he heard that Li Guangyu had no choice but to get exclusive news from Li Guangyu's company, but it was also a huge improvement for the newspaper.
"Okay, Guangyu, if you have any projects you need to invest in in the future, you can find me to my uncle, and I will follow you to make a fortune."
At this time, He Hongqing also surrounded him and started chatting with Li Guangyu and He Hongyi. During the chat, when he knew that Li Guangyu was focusing on real estate development in the next year, He Hongyi and He Hongqing would consider whether their own focus on real estate next year. Judging from Li Guangyu's development over the past year, he would definitely make money in real estate next year.
Just as they were chatting, the eldest son of Stanley Ho's family brought a few sisters to the He family, and all the representatives of the He family's houses arrived.
After paying birthday to He Zuozhi, a group of juniors started chatting in their own circle.
Li Guangyu also met several other heirs of the He family at this banquet. Although he was not very famous in later generations, his qualities and abilities were still good as heirs trained by the big family. Maybe he was unable to seize the opportunity in time later, so he was not very famous.
Li Guangyu thought that he could take them with him if he had the opportunity to make a fortune in the future, especially during several stock market crashes. This would not only improve the overall strength of the He family, but also make him a favorable assistant to Xiangjiang. In the future, when the Li family consortium faced European and American consortiums and RB consortiums, he would have a group of powerful families to support him, and the He family would be his firm ally.
After the dinner ended, He Zuozhi specially called Li Guangyu to the study.
"Guangyu, I am very pleased with your development this year. If you know about it, that old guy Li Yingliang would definitely celebrate. A year ago, when your parents left, the big families in Xiangjiang were waiting to see me He Zuozhi's joke. No one thinks you can defend your family business, but your development this year has really slapped the big families in the face, letting them know that they are blind. Now, He Zuozhi is also shining on your face. Guangyu, you are really good, and your parents will be happy for you underground."
Li Guangyu listened quietly to He Zuozhi's nagging. Li Guangyu knew that his grandfather had always cared about him, but he didn't say it out loud. When Li Guangyu's career was just beginning, if He Zuozhi hadn't stood behind him, I wonder how many monsters would have emerged.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely develop the family industry well. At the same time, I will also help my uncle {He Ji} grow the He family."
"Guangyu, I'm very happy to say that. Your uncle is the lord of the city guarding the city. You ask him to develop a career. He doesn't have the ability. You can take it if you can without affecting your own development. The same is true for those He family. Our He family is still very united. If you can, you can help."
"I know that if I have the opportunity in the future, I will take the He family with me. Only when the He family grows up will it be more beneficial for me to develop in the future."
Li Guangyu and He Zuozhi chatted for more than an hour before leaving the He family.
After returning home, Li Guangyu did not rest immediately, but thought about the several heirs he met in the He family today to see what aspects could be cooperated. In the past two years, the He family could enter the real estate industry. If they had made a profit in recent years, they would take them in July 1981 to make their assets rise. Then it would take until the Plaza Agreement in 1985 that they would have a chance. Li Guangyu thought about it further and further away.
The next morning, Li Guangyu did not go to the company. Because he slept too late yesterday, Li Guangyu gave himself a day off today. Now that the company is developing stably and there is no new company development, Li Guangyu is still relatively free now.
Li Guangyu has been lazy for so many times this year, and he didn't get up until ten o'clock and went downstairs. When He's mother saw Li Guangyu going downstairs, she immediately went to the kitchen to arrange food for him, while Li Guangyu sat in the living room and read the newspaper.
More than twenty minutes later, He's mother asked Li Guangyu to have a meal.
When He's mother saw Li Guangyu having dinner at the restaurant, she said to Li Guangyu: "Young Master, it's been a long time since I saw you rest at home."
"Mama He, isn't this the company too busy? I have to keep an eye on it."
"Young Master, you have to have a vacation for yourself when you are busy. Until the young lady and son-in-law left, you are like an ascetic monk and you are moving around the company every day. You are only seventeen years old. Look at you, there is no place to be a 17-year-old boy now."
Li Guangyu knew that He's mother was caring for him, so he comforted him: "Mom He, the company was just laying the foundation some time ago, so I'll be a little busy. I won't be able to do it in the future. The company has gotten on track. I'll be much more relaxed in the future. I'm still thinking about waiting for two years to study in the United States."
"You know that you can rest. I'm afraid that you will be devoted to the company and you will not make enough money. You are still young. If you are exhausted, how can I explain to my sister-in-law in the future?"
"Mom He, how could it be? I'm in good health and I don't need to do the specific work. I just need to go to the company to watch it. The specific work is done by the company's management."
"Young Master, you are over seventeen years old, you can consider getting married. It would be better to add a young master to your family as soon as possible. That way, the lady would definitely be very happy if she knew it."
Li Guangyu knew that He's mother missed Li He Mengping, and when Li Guangyu worshiped his parents a few days ago, He's mother cried aside.
"Mom He, I'm still young and haven't considered this issue yet. Besides, it's not easy for me to find a partner. At least I have to be a good match, otherwise my grandfather wouldn't be able to pass the barrier."
"Young Master, it's hard to find it. I'll tell the master to ask him to find a family for you. So that the master can grow up early and let our wishes be fulfilled sooner."
"Mom He, you're not in a hurry yet, am I still early?"
"Why don't you hurry? You will be eighteen next year and you can get married. Besides, you may not have to get married immediately. You can take a look first."
Li Guangyu didn't know what to say, and said to He Ma, "My family business is so big now. You have to find someone with talent and ability. At this age, it is not suitable for you to look for it."
