In fact, like many guilds with many years of history, the development of the new century has also experienced pains and twists and turns that others cannot imagine.
When this guild was founded, it was just a whim of five young people. They formed it just for fun. They had no intention of growing or even developing the guild.
However, the fate of four of the young people in "The Ninth Continent" was very tragic in the future. Only one of them became famous, that is, the first president.
The characteristic of the first president was that he was very loyal and had nothing to say to his friends. Even his opponents praised him, so more and more people defected to him and followed him.
This characteristic lasted until the fifth guild president, when New Century was almost completely ruined in a guild war.
Each subsequent president is working hard to seek development. "The Ninth Continent" is really like the real world. Each generation has its romantic figures and each generation has its legendary stories. It is like a river and lake. The new century is here.
This generational wave has seen ups and downs, ups and downs.
By the time of the fourteenth president, New Century had a total of 160,000 members, ranking fifth in the continent.
It was eighteen years ago. The New Century had a decisive battle with the third-ranked Golden Eagle Club and the fourth-ranked God's Domain in the Purgatory Island area above the South China Sea. The New Century lost that battle miserably, which was simply unprecedented.
.
The super-large guild of 160,000 people was shattered overnight. Countless people quit the membership. The president chose to delete his account, and the guild's ranking fell out of the top 1,000.
Many members were in despair, and Mr. Zheng stood up at that time. At that time, New Century was completely in a terrible mess.
Mr. Zheng also abandoned the development ideas of past presidents. He believes that if a guild wants to develop, it must follow the guidelines in "The Ninth Continent", abide by the principles of Jianghu, and respect social rules. If it always runs counter to the rules of development, it will not grow even if it is strong.
There will still be a day when you wake up and make the same mistakes again.
If Love Without Sin is a president full of romantic idealism, then Mr. Zheng is a realist and very pragmatic leader.
The development idea of the Eastern Dynasty is to respect "people", put people first, and emphasize the value of people. From a certain perspective, the Eastern Dynasty will no longer be able to grow when it reaches a certain scale, and may even die out, because there are too many human variables.
The changes are too great, human nature is complex and changeable. And everyone has a lifespan.
The generation of Love Without Sin has gathered outstanding talents like Jiang Hua and others. But what about the next generation? Who can guarantee that the second Mad Dog Dragon, the second Jiang Hua, and the second Sunny Day will also appear. And they will appear in the Eastern Dynasty?
The new century is completely the opposite. It believes in "money" and is money-oriented. It emphasizes the value of wealth.
Very simply, Mr. Zheng believes that the most common language, the most powerful force, the most high-end weapons, and the most powerful master in "The Ninth Continent" are - "money"!
Money is no longer just as simple as wealth. It is something that remains unchanged in this ever-changing world. It is the basis for the operation of development rules.
People will die, but money will not die. People will change, but money will not change. After this generation passes, the next generation still holds the most fundamental power and cannot shake the foundation at all.
Therefore, in 18 years, New Century miraculously rose from the 1332nd ranked guild to the 2nd position. The Golden Eagle Society and Scarlet Elite, which were so high at the beginning, are now not worth mentioning to New Century.
.
Gu Xiaoyue said: "If there is a tradition in this association from the first to the current one, it is that the new president must be appointed by the old president. No one can object to the candidate decided by the old president. This is the new century.
The foundation of our founding.”
Hearing this, Mad Dog Dragon's palms suddenly clenched. He didn't know what a terrible person Mr. Zheng was until now.
Mr. Jun, Mr. Du, Yi Jian Feixue, Tian Wang Shen Dao, Jiang Hua, Qing Tian... These people are scary only on the basis of martial arts or strength, but Mr. Zheng's fear is reflected in the realm of ideas and concepts.
Yes, this is a real player.
Mad Dog Dragon suddenly felt that some of his previous behaviors were not only childish and ridiculous, but also vulgar and boring.
"So, what business should we expand?" Mad Dog Dragon couldn't help but ask.
Gu Xiaoyue spread her hands and smiled bitterly: "I read these documents. Anyway, everything I can think of, including things I can't think of, are mentioned above. It seems that we can't expand any new business."
Mad Dog Dragon drooped his eyelids: "Didn't you promise last night that it would only be a matter of time to develop and grow? But today you turned off the engine on the first day of work."
Gu Xiaoyue smiled bitterly and said: "Your wife and I are also a stupid girl sometimes, who can we blame?"
Mad Dog Long said: "Let me think about it, how about this? We can open a casino? What do you think? I have already thought of a name, let's call it Si Tiao A Si!"
Gu Xiaoyue also learned the trick of drooping her eyelids: "Walking around the casino above Moonlight is what we do."
Mad Dog Long said: "Let's open a new company, avenge people, and collect debts for people!"
Gu Xiaoyue closed her eyes: "We will have countless companies like this."
Mad Dog Long said: "How about opening a beauty salon?"
Gu Xiaoyue sighed: "The biggest one on Fangcao Street is ours."
"How about opening a brothel?" Mad Dog Dragon became angry.
Gu Xiaoyue said expressionlessly: "Almost all the houses in Shuixiang Street are from the new century."
Mad Dog Long rolled his eyes and said, "We can make it unique and build an ancient brothel. How about riding a bicycle on the bridge and having the whole building full of tricks?"
"That's riding a horse and leaning on a leaning bridge, and the whole building is full of red sleeves!" Gu Xiaoyue was almost blown away by him, "I asked you, can you be more serious?"
Mad Dog Dragon gritted his teeth and said: "Opening a pancake and fruit shop, I guarantee you will never think of it."
Gu Xiaoyue stopped talking. No matter who met someone like Dou Bilong, it would be difficult not to get angry.
Seeing her dead look on her face, Mad Dog Dragon was also angry: "There's this, there's that, what's the point of you, the boss of an expansion agency, in front of me?"
Gu Xiaoyue sighed: "Thankfully you are still my husband. You see what bad ideas you have come up with. Just talk about it in front of me. If others don't laugh when they find out about it, you are still us after all."
Where are the core personnel of New Century?”
Mad Dog Dragon stopped talking. He lay down on the sofa, raised his legs to the sky and hummed: "You little man, you are poor and happy, I take a nap and feel very comfortable..."
At this time, Duan Yu Nianhua came in with a large pile of papers, and his hands shook when he saw this scene.
With a "crash", all the files fell to the ground.
"Sister Gu...I..." Duan Yunianhua said carefully, "I'll come in later!"
"No need!" Gu Xiaoyue regained her dignity, "Bring over the documents!"
Duan Yunianhua was squatting on the ground picking up files and looking at the sofa carefully. Mad Dog Long's legs were shaking as if he were firing a machine gun. Anyway, she had never seen any of the bosses at the headquarters look so careless.
Gu Xiaoyue said coldly: "Xiaoyu, don't think he is the boss, he is just like this."
Duan Yu Nianhua couldn't help but laugh. Yesterday, there was news from the top management that their new bosses are a couple. The wife is indeed like a boss, with temperament, majesty and aura, but the husband...
What a complete second-rate guy.
Anyone who works at the New Century headquarters dares to do this during working hours. Mad Dog Dragon may be the first person in the history of New Century.
Duan Yunianhua put the file on the executive desk: "Sister Gu, Brother Lu Chongyun just asked me to ask you. He wants to ask if you and Brother Gua are free at noon? He and Miss Xiaoxue want to invite you two to have lunch together."
Gu Xiaoyue looked at the watch on her hand. It was already 11:30. She nodded: "You tell him, I'll see you on the first floor in 10 minutes."
In fact, Mad Dog Dragon has figured it out. As Jiang Hua said, if you can't get it, don't want it. If you can't figure it out, don't want it.
Now that there is no business to expand, it is time to be happy. Mad Dog Dragon walked out of Zhongtian Building shaking and shaking, looking extremely happy.
Lu Chongyun was always so polite and courteous. Not only did he wear designer suits, but his temperament and image were very close to him. But when Zheng Xiaoxue was not at work, she would cling to him like a little bird.
Lu Chongyun looked at Mad Dog Dragon curiously and smiled: "It seems that Brother Gua was in a good mood on his first day at the headquarters."
This question was actually asked by Gu Xiaoyue. Gu Xiaoyue looked at Lu Chongyun and then at the mad dog dragon beside her who was shaking happily. She shook her head helplessly with a wry smile on her face.
Zheng Xiaoxue couldn't help but said: "Why is Brother Gua so happy?"
Lu Chongyun smiled and said: "Brother Gua is such a wonderful person. I don't know why, but my mood improved as soon as I saw you."
Mad Dog Dragon glanced at Zheng Xiaoxue: "If someone invited you to lunch on your first day at work, would you say you would not be happy?"
Zheng Xiaoxue couldn't help but laugh, and Lu Chongyun's smile was very contagious: "Brother Gua is such a happy person."
Gu Xiaoyue's Mercedes-Benz and Lu Chongyun's Audi drove onto the bridge together, crossed two streets, and stopped at a Chinese restaurant on the riverside.
As soon as the four of them got out of the car, the boss personally greeted them: "Mr. Lu, Miss Zheng, welcome!"
The enthusiastic attitude was as if he wanted to kneel down and kiss their feet. It wasn't until he sat down in the semi-open private room near the river that Mad Dog Long said curiously: "The boss seems to be particularly enthusiastic about you."
Zheng Xiaoxue smiled and said: "Because we are regular visitors here."
Lu Chongyun smiled and said: "This is not the main reason, because the boss knows that we are people of the new century, and consumption in this place is not cheap, so he is naturally much more enthusiastic."
Mad Dog Long said: "So, we are a bit taken advantage of?"
Gu Xiaoyue said sweetly: "You are wrong again. Although the price of this store is ridiculously high, this restaurant is not his own, but our industry in the new century. As long as he increases the price of the dishes, we will also increase the rent."
price.”
Mad Dog Dragon suddenly laughed, and Lu Chongyun smiled and remained silent. (To be continued...)
