A red sun gradually rose from the horizon, and the bright morning glow once again cut through the quiet night.
Chairman's Office, Sun Hung Kai Building.
Guo Asheng, who had not slept all night, squinted his eyes and looked at the glow coming from the slanting thorns, with a look of hesitation on his face.
After a night, he still had not made a decision.
Whether he bows to Chu Heng, a newcomer who has just arrived, or adds a reward to regain his disadvantage, he doesn't want to choose either way.
The former will make him a laughing stock, while the latter will break his capital chain, and may even cause his business to go bankrupt. Years of hard work will make Huawei a dream come true, and it will become nothing again. It is worse than the former.
"Why!"
With a gloomy sigh, Guo Asheng stood up and came to the window, looking downstairs at the small groups of He Shenghe's horses gathered under the building. Suddenly, he whimsically expected the Hong Kong government to intervene in this matter.
He doesn't need to be embarrassed.
"Squeak."
At this time, the office door was pushed open, and his wife walked in with a bowl of millet porridge: "Let's have something to eat, Brother Sheng."
"good."
Guo Asheng turned around and sat down at his desk. He took the porcelain bowl and scooped out a spoonful of thick rice porridge. As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt a stinging pain coming from the corner of his mouth.
"hiss!"
He took a deep breath, put down the spoon and touched the corners of his mouth. It turned out that in just one short night, several blisters had appeared on the corners of his mouth unknowingly, and it hurt whenever he moved.
"Forget it, I won't eat anymore." Guo Asheng frowned and pushed away the porcelain bowl, took out a cigarette and lit one.
"Let me squeeze your shoulders." His wife walked up behind him distressedly and gently squeezed his shoulders as usual. She lowered her head and looked at his gray hair. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Brother Sheng.
, I heard Aji say that the best solution to this matter now is that you go to Mr. Chu to apologize and admit your mistake, that’s it, why don’t you want to go?”
"What does a woman know?" Guo Asheng frowned impatiently: "If I bow my head to a young man like him, where will I put my old face? Who can look up to me in the future?"
The wife paused and then said softly: "Brother Sheng, do you remember that more than ten years ago, in order to represent the product management rights of Xiaobaga ykk zipper factory, you begged your grandfather to sue your grandmother every day?
I got down on my knees. I asked you at that time, is it worth being so humble just to make some money? You told me nonchalantly that face is the cheapest thing for a businessman. As long as you can make money, losing face is nothing! Why are you now?
Do you care about face so much?"
When Guo Asheng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He couldn't help but recall the time when he just started his business. At that time, he had nothing but a worthless face, so he didn't care.
Now, he has hundreds of millions of assets, maybe because he lost too much face before, so he cares about face and the opinions of others.
But, is this face really that important?
Guo Asheng, who was a little shaken by what his wife said after a few words, waved his hand impatiently. "Okay, you go out first and I'll think about it."
"Then remember to drink the porridge."
When the wife saw that her words were really listened to by her husband who had become a bit stubborn at some point, the wife raised a smile on her lips and left the office without any further persuasion. She stepped on her high heels and left the office.
Guo Asheng sat alone behind his desk, staring at the phone in front of him for a long time. He stretched out his hand several times and then took it back with a look of hesitation on his face.
Not long after this, Li Aji and Feng Axi came over together to persuade him to bow his head and admit his mistake. Feng Axi even bluntly said that if he could not solve the matter within today, he would quit Sun Hung Kai.
This sentence became the straw that broke the camel's back. Guo Asheng, who was already a little shaken, reluctantly picked up the phone and dialed.
"Mr. Owen, I need your help."
…………
"Okay, since Mr. Owen has come forward to intercede, I will definitely give you this face, so let's do this for now and wait for my news."
At the Mandarin Hotel, Chu Heng, who had just had a sumptuous breakfast, laughed and hung up the call from Owen.
The other party didn't call me for anything else. He just came to ask for mediation.
"Old dog! It's you who couldn't hold on any longer! It's true that the older you get, the more timid you become!"
Chu Heng smiled coldly, and at the same time he felt relieved. Although he had long been prepared to exchange the hotel for his reputation, after all, this was an asset worth hundreds of millions, so naturally it was better not to lose it without losing it.
As a result, Chu Heng, who had avoided hundreds of millions of losses, immediately felt better. He pulled Han Yunwen in for a kiss, then turned around and picked up the phone again to call Lu Le.
"Hey, Brother Le, I'm Chu Heng."
"What's wrong, Mr. Chu?"
"That's right, I want to ask you to help me remove the reward."
"Boss, are you willing to bow your head?"
"Wow, Brother Le is really clever. It seems that you have the potential to be a master."
"Haha, come on, it's not hard to guess, but your reward is not easy to withdraw. He Shenghe lost a lot of manpower yesterday. If you don't give some explanation, they will definitely not agree."
"This is easy to say. After I finish talking to Guo Asheng, I will give them a satisfactory answer."
"Well, let me go and deliver the message to you first."
"Sorry, Brother Le."
…
"What? The reward is cancelled?"
"What the hell, are you playing with us?"
Lu Le quickly sent the news to Master Ding, who then issued an order to retreat to the leaders responsible for besieging the Sun Hung Kai Building.
When these leaders learned about the situation, they became furious on the spot.
"Damn it, we have lost so many brothers, and he cancels it when he says it? Then didn't our people die in vain?"
"My death will definitely not be in vain." The young man who came to deliver the news said with a smile: "That Mr. Chu has already said that he will give us an explanation after he meets the big boss Sheng."
One of the leaders snorted when he heard this: "He knows what's going on, otherwise..."
"What else?" Another leader on the side squinted over: "Are you going to cause trouble for him?"
"You think I'm crazy and want to trouble this mad dog? Can't I please lower my head and curse him to death?" The leader smiled timidly. Mad Dog Heng has a good reputation now. If it's not a mortal enemy, who would want to provoke him?
he?
Afterwards, a few people complained a few more and hurriedly conveyed the order. After a while, the crowd of horses gathered together quickly evacuated the place like a tide.
On the upper floor of the building, everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that He Shenghe and others had left completely.
"Jingle bell."
At this time, the phone rang, and Guo Asheng, with a heavy face, immediately picked up the phone, and after briefly talking to Owen on the other end of the phone, he frowned and said to the other people in the room: "You guys should not leave the building just yet, I will
Go see Chu Heng, and we’ll talk about everything after I come back.”
"Brother Sheng, let me go with you." Li Aji stepped forward and said uneasily. He was worried that the two of them would quarrel again and the crisis that was finally resolved would happen again.
"No, I've been in trouble for so many years, and I know what to do." Guo Asheng immediately shook his head and refused. He didn't know how he would be embarrassed by Chu Heng this time. If fewer people know about it, he will lose less people, right?
