Chapter 457: Lost Youth Drizzle, Fiery Restaurant.
With a few plates of side dishes and a bottle of red wine, the two old friends sat opposite each other.
Different from the cheerful drinking in the past, both of them were a little depressed today.
There was a newspaper on the wine table, the "Overseas News" that was just released this morning. In an inconspicuous corner of the American news section, there was a brief news with only a few words. Attached below was a photo of a close-up of a male corpse.
, bloody and horrific.
The Argentine News Agency reported that in the middle of the night on March 2, a gunfight broke out on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, and a total of three adult men were killed. One of the deceased was Simeone, the owner of a local country bar, and the identities of the other two were unknown. Reporter
The interview revealed that Simeone moved here from abroad five years ago, lived a low-key life, did not like to talk, and made a living by running a bar. According to a Buenos Aires police detective who did not want to be named, the deceased
Simone's identity is mysterious. He used to be involved in the dark world and was a well-known lone killer. As for the truth behind this murder, the Buenos Aires police are still fully investigating, but due to the darkness of the night of the incident,
It rained heavily and all the clues were washed away by the rain. It is probably unknown when the case will be solved.
Ye Feng had been staring at the photo for a long time. He slowly let out a breath and looked up at the fierce fire opposite.
"Are you sure it's a rainy night?"
Liehuo raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, then nodded vigorously. "I have seen him before, he can't be wrong."
Yuye, male, native of South America, about thirty-two or three years old, tall and tall, with long flowing hair, ranked fourteenth on the killer list. In the old days of lone killers, Yuye was an extremely mysterious killer, rarely seen
Someone has seen his true face, and everything about him is just like his very literary code name, which is confusing and fantastic. He must choose to take action on a rainy night, and the weapons he uses are even more unique. One of them follows him everywhere, no matter what.
A black umbrella that never leaves his side on sunny or cloudy days. No one has ever seen him take action. The rumors about using umbrellas as weapons on rainy nights are mostly because the targets who died in his hands had a small hole through their chests. So, one day,
As the story spreads from person to person, Yuye's name becomes more and more mysterious.
The killer who was used to carrying out assassination missions on rainy nights was actually killed on a night of heavy rain, as if he was destined to reincarnate.
He died on a rainy night, and Ye Feng felt inexplicably sad in his heart.
There is no grudge between Ye Feng and Yu Ye, and they have never even met. But to say the least, they all belong to the same group and the same kind of people. The lone killers in the past can only be ranked as such.
So there are about a hundred people. These familiar names, looking back now, don't seem as cold as the industry they are engaged in.
Perhaps this is human nature, always unconsciously recalling the past and those long-gone youth.
"Boss, what do you think about this matter?"
"I'm afraid it's still because of past grudges."
Ye Feng said something a little heavy and helpless.
The killer is a contradictory symbiosis. Every task he performs is a sword of Damocles hanging above his head. The killer will eventually face the moment of being killed. Will he be killed?
, it depends on whether the killer himself can cope with it, and whether he can be favored by fate.
"Alas." Liehuo sighed, then lowered his head and drank the wine.
"Okay, don't be sad. Since we are still alive now, we must cherish the life in front of us."
Ye Feng raised his wine glass and looked at the drizzle outside the window.
"It's another rainy day. Let's raise a toast to bid farewell to the rainy night and wish him good luck in another world."
…
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
Thousands of silver threads fell from the sky, and rows of small water drops hung on the eaves and windowsills, like beautiful bead curtains, crystal clear and really cute.
The rain moistened the earth and everything revived, but Zhang Wenbo, who was sitting in the study, did not look happy at all.
He was sulking, angry with Su Qingfeng, and even more angry with Zhang Zhen.
In a few months, Zhang Wenbo will turn sixty-five, and retirement is imminent. The issue of Zhang Zhen's future development in the Huanyu Group has always been Zhang Wenbo's heart. After today's morning meeting, while Su Qingfeng was happy, Zhang Wenbo raised another
He solved the old problem. He asked his son to succeed him as the vice chairman of Huanyu Group. The result was exactly the same as in the past. Su Qingfeng once again rejected Zhang Wenbo's request. The refusal was straightforward and merciless. Not only that, Su Qingfeng also clearly told
Zhang Wenbo, he did not want to see Zhang Zhen continue to stay in the Huanyu Group, even for a day. In the end, thinking of the friendship of starting a business together, Su Qingfeng proposed a compromise plan, hoping that Zhang Zhen could resign before the end of the month, so that
You can get by on both sides.
He voluntarily resigns, and his face will be okay before the end of the month. When he thinks of these words, Zhang Wenbo will be furious. This is not a compromise, it is clearly an ultimatum; whether it is taking care of the face of an old friend, it is clearly a slap in the face. Zhang Wenbo is angry.
Broken, he changed his past complacency and slammed the door angrily and left.
From morning to noon, and then to evening, Zhang Wenbo had locked himself in the study for most of the day. He didn't eat lunch, let alone take a step out of the study; he was sulking and thinking about countermeasures. However, Su Qingfeng's
The words were too harsh and too sharp. Even if Zhang Wenbo racked his brains, his brain was always filled with anger. Seven or eight hours later, Zhang Wenbo's anger was only getting bigger and bigger.
Squeak, the door was pushed open, and Zhang Zhen walked in with his head tilted.
"You're an incompetent prodigal. You don't even look in the mirror to see how you look. With your looks, you can still be the vice chairman."
Zhang Zhen was scolded for no reason, and Zhang Zhen felt extremely aggrieved. "Dad, our Zhang family owns 3125 shares of Huanyu Group and is the company's second largest shareholder. If nothing else, just for this share, Su Qingfeng has to give it to us."
The Zhang family retains the position of vice chairman."
"Damn it, those 3125 shares were earned by me working hard, not just for you to have fun with."
Zhang Wenbo hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel, so he slapped Zhang Zhen with his hand. This loud slap made Zhang Zhen shut his mouth and let Zhang Wenbo vent his anger. "You said that you are idle all day long, if you are half as good as I am.
Do you have the patience to let others kick you out?"
"Sweep out." Zhang Zhen was dumbfounded, completely forgetting the pain on his face, and grabbed Zhang Wenbo's arm. "Dad, how can Su Qingfeng be so heartless? No matter how bad I am, you will finally start a business with him and make a fortune."
He is a meritorious veteran, how can he kill the donkey?"
"The meritorious veteran is of no use." Zhang Wenbo pushed Zhang Zhen away angrily and sat down on the sofa. "Power is above all else, and mastering real power is the real skill. The reason why Su Qingfeng dared to do this is because he
Do you want to hold on to the power in his hands? Damn it, if it hadn't been for a mistake that made Su Qingfeng's shares exceed mine, how could he have been allowed to serve as the chairman of Huanyu Group?"
Huanyu Group was co-founded by Su Qingfeng and Zhang Wenbo. At the beginning, they each held 5025 shares, and all matters in the company were decided by the two of them. This situation lasted until eight years ago, when Huanyu Group encountered
When a serious crisis came, the two decided to raise funds externally after consultation. It was originally agreed that they would each take out equal shares. However, in actual operation, Zhang Wenbo retreated, worried that he might not be able to survive the crisis.
So he found Su Qingfeng and deliberately made up reasons to sell more of his shares. Later, with the intervention of a foreign investor, the Huanyu Group successfully survived the crisis and grew step by step, becoming one of the five hundred largest companies in China.
Strong enterprise.
In the future, as the Huanyu Group gradually grew and grew, Zhang Wenbo could be said to have made a lot of profits. However, it was his indecision eight years ago that caused him to lose some of his shares, thus losing his right to speak in the restructuring.
In the subsequent equity distribution of Huanyu Group, Su Qingfeng held 3625, Zhang Wenbo held 3125, the foreign investor held 2525, and the remaining 825 were held by some retail investors in the stock market. Within a joint-stock company, shares represent
Power. Precisely because Su Qingfeng occupies the identity of the largest shareholder of the Huanyu Group, he naturally became the top leader of the Huanyu Group, while Zhang Wenbo gradually evolved from the former co-owner of the Huanyu Group to a deputy and a supporting role.
.
The difference between the first-in-command and the second-in-command is not just the difference between 525 and 525. Zhang Wenbo understands this very well.
"Dad, why don't we go to the stock market to recover shares? As long as we can recover those 825 shares from retail investors, our Zhang family's shares will exceed Su Qingfeng's, and then our Zhang family will have the final say on the entire Huanyu Group.
"
"Damn, you idiot, you idiot... When you were in school, were all math classes taught by the physical education teacher?"
I have to say that this idea that Zhang Zhen came up with is absolutely as bad as any other.
Zhang Wenbo has long wanted to make a comeback. He has also considered the individual stocks floating in the stock market. However, Huanyu Group's current performance is booming. Unless it spends several times the market value of the stock market, those retail investors will definitely not sell it easily.
shares. And even if all the 825 scattered shares are recovered, Zhang Wenbo only holds 3925 shares. As long as it does not exceed 5025, he cannot control Huanyu Group. The large price spent to acquire scattered shares can only be a bamboo basket.
All in vain.
What kind of bullshit foreign investor you are, you’ve lost your big eyes in vain, how am I worse than Su Qingfeng? Damn it, why do you look down on me so much?
A few years ago, Zhang Wenbo had private contact with the mysterious foreign investor. He hoped to join forces with the foreign investor to control the Huanyu Group and thus take away Su Qingfeng's chairmanship. But what he did not expect was that
A foreign investor made all his efforts go to waste by using a poor old Chinese saying: "Stay constant to cope with all changes."
Cursing the foreign investor viciously in his heart, Zhang Wenbo suddenly laughed.
Since the acquisition is not possible and the joint cooperation is not possible, then we have to start over.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, history is always repeating itself.
Zhang Wenbo looked up at the photo on the wall. That was him eight years ago. At that time, he was high-spirited but cautious.
Let's go back to eight years ago. This time I will let go.
