"It's obviously you who insists on arguing with me..."
Zhang Chongxin said tit for tat.
Zhang Hao shook his head gently at the old man, then pulled the other man's arm and interrupted:
"Dad, there's something I want to hear your opinion on."
"What's up?"
Zhang Chongxin was immediately attracted attention.
"The thing is like this, according to the wishes of Archon Ji, before taking office, I need to resign from all my positions and transfer my shares at the same time."
Zhang Hao replied.
Zhang Chongxin nodded and agreed: "This is of course, what are you going to do?"
"Hua Qing's identity is inappropriate. I want you and mom to hold the shares on my behalf..."
"No need." Zhang Chongxin interrupted directly, "Your mother and I can't live for a few more years. Stop fussing. Just give the shares to Da Puding and the others!"
Li Dajuan cooperated: "Yes, when Big Pudding and Little Pudding graduate, they will be able to help you manage the company."
"The shares can be transferred to five of them and they can just run the company. Even if they are willing, they will have to practice for at least ten or eight years. After I resign, I plan to let my second sister take over the position of chairman."
Zhang Hao told him his arrangement.
"Your second sister..."
Zhang Chongxin made the same old mistake again.
Seeing this, Li Dajuan slapped the table hard: "Old man, our family has finally lived a peaceful life for more than ten years. It's better for you. You can't live a comfortable life, so you have to do something wrong, right? Why can't the second child be okay?"
Since marrying into Lao Zhang's family, the past ten years have been the most comfortable period for her.
The old man retired, and the most important thing is that his children are with him. Two grandsons and a granddaughter were added to the family. In addition, the grandsons and granddaughters got married one after another, and even a great-grandson and a great-granddaughter.
Eleven.
What else is not satisfying?
"That's not what I meant." Zhang Chongxin immediately denied, "I am mainly worried that the second child will not be able to take care of the family. They have several children in the family. As a grandmother, she cannot just focus on work all day."
"Okay, you don't need to worry about their family's affairs."
Li Dajuan said angrily.
Zhang Hao suddenly smelled a burnt smell, so he immediately reminded: "Mom, didn't you turn off the fire in the kitchen?"
"Oops, the stew is probably burnt."
Li Dajuan immediately ran into the kitchen.
Yang Huaqing casually handed her little daughter to her husband, and then walked over.
Zhang Chongxin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the whole world was quiet. Without his wife's nonsense, the father and son could finally talk about serious things.
"Xiao Hao, your mother is not here, tell me honestly, how did this consul come to be?"
Zhang Hao did not hide anything and answered truthfully:
"Dad, actually the matter is not as complicated as you think. Archon Ji wanted to support a puppet archon. Your son and I were lucky enough to be chosen."
"Puppet Archon? What do you mean?"
Zhang Chongxin asked quickly.
Zhang Hao explained the whole story.
After hearing this, Zhang Chongxin couldn't help but sigh a little: "When I heard you say this, I understood. I bet you really picked this consul up."
"Dad, no matter what, this is still a consul."
Zhang Hao's face was a little confused.
"Yes." Zhang Chongqian nodded, "You are right to say that. In any case, you are also the third consul of our country, and you must leave your name in history."
"It doesn't matter if your name goes down in history, I don't care about these false names at all." Zhang Hao waved his hand.
Zhang Chongxin stared closely into his son's eyes, and then said tentatively: "Don't hide it from me. Tell me, do you have other ideas in your mind?"
"Dad, I'm just a puppet, what ideas can I have?"
Zhang Hao spread his hands helplessly.
"Humph, don't lie. You have just turned forty this year. You are in the prime of life and a great opportunity is in front of you. Can you really be willing to be a puppet?"
Zhang Chongxin said with a solemn expression.
If it were him, he would compete no matter what.
Zhang Hao shrugged: "What can we do if we don't give in? Are we trying to fight with Archon Ji? Your son and I are worth hundreds of billions, so I can't afford to go head-to-head with them."
"That's all right if you think so. I'm just afraid that your brain will get hot and you will do something stupid."
Zhang Chongxin breathed a sigh of relief immediately.
"Dad, don't worry, I'm very clear-headed. If I didn't want to get a protective talisman for our family, I would have no interest in being the consul."
"You are said to be fat and you are breathless. Since the opportunity has hit you, don't waste it. You must work hard. As the old saying goes, opportunities always leave to those who are prepared."
Zhang Hao couldn't help being stunned: "Dad, what do you mean by this?"
"If you are really ambitious, you can first accumulate some experience and then strive for a second term. Five years is enough for you to find a breakthrough point."
Zhang Chongxin actively made suggestions.
As the saying goes, a son is better than his father, and a son has no shortage of abilities. Of course, he hopes that the other party can really sit in that position one day, instead of just being a puppet.
In addition, there is another important reason.
Unlike the West, local political families are always more stable than business families. If the old Zhang family can successfully transform into a political family, it will be worth it even if they spend hundreds of billions of family property.
"Forget it." Zhang Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Politics is too complicated and not suitable for me."
"It's up to you, just think it over yourself."
Zhang Chongxin pretended to be indifferent.
Zhang Hao took the opportunity to warn: "Dad, don't tell eldest sister and others about this news yet. It won't be too late to tell you when it is really confirmed."
"Won't your third sister tell you? She has more experience than you, so she might be able to help you."
Zhang Chongxin reminded.
"No, no one can help with this matter. The best thing to do is to do nothing."
Zhang Hao spoke with great care and sincerity.
Zhang Chongxin nodded: "Okay, I understand."
…
Three days later, Zhang Hao called his eldest son and his second son back with a phone call.
"Grandma, I'm starving, is there anything to eat in the kitchen?" Zhang Guoxuan shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.
Although Xia Qing University is a prestigious university, the food in the cafeteria is really not that good. The salted meat and fish that he and his eldest brother bring every week have long been divided up by his roommates in the same dormitory, and they can't last for more than two years.
sky.
Li Dajuan came out with two bowls of chicken soup: "Drink a bowl of chicken soup first to warm yourself up. The noodles are already in the pot. They will be ready soon."
"Grandma, where is my dad? Isn't he at home?"
Zhang Guoxuan took the chicken soup and asked casually.
After all, it was their father who called them to come back this time, and the brothers took a day off specifically for this purpose.
Yang Huaqing came over with her little daughter in her arms and answered helpfully: "Your dad went to the company early in the morning and should be back soon."
The twins immediately dropped the chicken soup and ran to their mother, teasing their little sister.
"Guoguo, do you still recognize your second brother?"
"Beep, bab, bab..."
Baby Guoguo laughed happily.
After teasing his little sister, Zhang Guoji asked while drinking chicken soup:
"Mom, why did dad ask us to come back?"
"For special reasons, your father is going to give all the shares of our company to you five brothers and sisters. From now on, you can do other things with peace of mind."
Yang Huaqing said vaguely.
"What?" Zhang Guoji couldn't help being surprised, and quickly asked with concern: "Mom, isn't my dad having a health problem? Is it okay?"
His father is only forty years old this year, far from the age of retirement. This matter seems to be an arrangement of funeral arrangements. No wonder he is so worried.
Yang Huaqing quickly comforted him: "Don't think nonsense, you two. Your dad is in good health and there is no problem at all. There is really something else going on this time. It's not convenient to talk about it now. You will know it after a while."
Zhang Guoji looked at his mother's face. There was no trace of haggard or anxiety on it, and he felt a little relieved:
"Mom, what on earth is going on? So mysterious?"
Zhang Chongxin heard the voices of his grandchildren and walked out of the bedroom on crutches:
"Don't ask your mother. The main task for you two now is to study. Don't worry about other things."
While talking, Li Dajuan came over with noodles: "Stop talking about it now, eat the noodles while they are hot. If you have anything to do, wait until your dad comes back."
Half an hour later, Zhang Hao finally came back.
"Boss, second brother, you two hurry up and pack up and follow me to the company immediately."
Zhang Guoji ran to his father and looked him up and down: "Dad, are you okay?"
"What can happen to my body?"
Zhang Hao felt a little baffled.
Yang Huaqing smiled and explained: "They suspected that you were terminally ill, so they divided the family property."
Zhang Hao casually patted his eldest son on the shoulder:
"You brat, don't think too much. Your dad and I have physical examinations every year. He's in good health!"
"Dad, just be okay."
The Zhang Guoji brothers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Zhang Hao waved his hand: "Okay, don't waste time, come with me quickly!"
"Let's go after lunch?"
Li Dajuan interrupted.
"No, the lawyers over there are still waiting!"
Zhang Chongxin helped and advised: "Okay, let them go, don't miss this meal, business is important."
…
An hour later, the father and son arrived at the group headquarters.
Before signing, Zhang Hao briefly introduced his business and then asked:
"Are you going to choose for yourself? Or should I divide it?"
Zhang Guoji hesitated and said: "Dad, are we alone this time? What about the third brother, fourth brother and little sister?"
"Don't worry, I've made arrangements a long time ago. Our property is not that complicated. You can just pick it up and don't regret it."
After Zhang Hao finished speaking, he signaled the lawyer to come up with a specific distribution plan.
The Zhang Guoji brothers gathered together and watched.
In general, due to limited time, the allocation plan seems too simple and crude.
Huimin Company counts as one share, Huizhong Company counts as one share, Minde Times counts as one share, Shuguang New Energy counts as one share, and the remaining assets count as the last share.
Leslie Cheung couldn't wait to say: "Dad, can I choose the Minde era?"
Among these companies, Huimin Company and Huizhong Company were too simple and unchallenging; Shuguang Company held too few shares and was of a special nature, so it could not make the decision. In the end, after much selection, the Minde era was the most suitable for him.
"Okay, of course it's no problem."
Zhang Hao nodded.
"Dad, I will choose Sugon New Energy!"
Zhang Guoji replied immediately.
Zhang Hao said in surprise: "Have you thought about it?"
He originally wanted to leave Shuguang Company to his younger daughter. After all, he had such great expectations for the little cotton jacket and only hoped that she could live a smooth life.
In this case, Shuguang Company is the best choice. It has status and does not have to worry.
Zhang Guoji nodded: "Dad, I'm not interested in doing business. Shuguang Company has the greatest potential and doesn't require a lot of effort. It's perfect for me."
"Okay, Shuguang Company is yours."
Zhang Hao did not persuade him again.
The future is full of uncertainty, and it is difficult to say whether these industries can be saved. Therefore, he is not very concerned about this "separation".
Just want to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Zhang Guoji suddenly smiled: "Thank you, Dad!"
"Okay, we are a family, so there is no need to be so polite." Zhang Hao waved his hand, "Now that you two have made your choice, Huimin Company will be left to your third brother, Huizhong Company will be left to your fourth brother, and the rest of the property will be left to you.
Leave it to you little sister."
The remaining industries are relatively miscellaneous, mainly including Cao Fan's artificial meat company, antique calligraphy and paintings collected from all over the world, the meat rat breeding farm in Feicheng, and some holdings in other companies.
The sum of zeros and zeros adds up to 70 to 80 billion, which is not a small amount.
After signing, Zhang Hao ordered Captain Fang to send the brothers home, while he himself found the second sister. It was time for a showdown.
"Fourth, did Guo Ji and Guo Xuan come just now?"
"Yes, I brought them both here to sign."
Zhang Hao nodded.
"Sign? What to sign?"
Zhang Jiayi said curiously.
Zhang Hao did not sell out: "Second sister, there is something I want to inform you."
"What's the matter?" Zhang Jiayi was confused.
"I transferred the shares of Minde Times to Guoxuan, Shuguang Company to Guoji, and the Haotian Group was left to Guodong and Guoliang..."
"What? What do you want to do?"
Zhang Jiayi couldn't help being surprised.
"I have other things to do, so I can't take care of this for the time being."
"Then there's no need to transfer the shares? Don't you want to officially retire when you're fifty?"
"I didn't say retirement, I have..." Zhang Hao paused and said simply: "Second sister, to tell you the truth, Archon Ji chose me as his successor. I will be able to officially move into the Archon office next month at the latest.
Mansion."
"WTF? You're not passed out, are you?"
"I'm not kidding. My parents also know about this. The reason why I kept it from you is mainly because I'm afraid of the negative impact if it gets out." Zhang Hao explained casually.
Zhang Jiayi sat down on the sofa: "No, no, I have to slow down, your news is too exciting."
"Second sister, you can wait as long as you want. I will leave the group's affairs to you. I will resign as chairman of the board soon, and you will take over."
Zhang Hao smiled and waved his hands.
"Are you really not joking?"
Zhang Jiayi confirmed repeatedly.
"What's the point of lying to you? This thing is more real than real money. I didn't expect that Archon Ji would choose me as his successor because he has a keen eye for heroes."
Zhang Hao shrugged.
"You have no political experience at all, is this possible?" Zhang Jiayi couldn't help but asked with concern.
