In winter, even if the sun is warm, there is still a chill.
In winter, although it is cold, there is also warm sunshine.
For the same thing, if you change your mind, you will have different feelings.
Seven years ago, Nai Tadashi was the former.
Now, he considers himself to be the latter.
"Dr. Lin...?"
In a villa where he lived alone, Tadashi Nai, holding a cane, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, looking at the young people admiring the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and squinted his eyes imperceptibly.
"He is also Chairman Lin of Putuo Shipping."
Holding his father's arm, Najing Yang also looked towards the courtyard. Lin Zengxian stood in the winter sunshine, looking cold but also warm.
After discussing with Lin Zengxian, Mingjing Yang brought him and Mingjing Nan to meet his father.
However, before Lin Zengxian came face to face with his father, he needed to discuss it with his father.
If he wanted to cooperate with Putuo Shipping, he himself did not have the strength. Only with his father's support could he have the foundation for cooperation.
"It turns out that this is what Michael did..."
Closing his eyes and feeling the warmth on his forehead under the sunlight, Nai Tadashi thought of his old friend.
From a surgical perspective, the aging Professor Mikael has indeed slipped from his peak. This is a rule that no one can escape.
Therefore, Lin Zengxian, who is young and powerful and has a long peak period visible to the naked eye, will be a good choice to succeed the teacher.
However, is this the only motivation behind Professor Mikael's actions?
Tadashi Nai felt that his old friend had something he didn't tell him.
Now, he has connected all the joints.
Wanting to change from a "potential heir" to a "successor" of the family business, Lin Zengxian told Professor Mikael about his idea, and Professor Mikael gave him the advice to cooperate with Mitsui, which had obvious shortcomings in heavy industry.
Seeking cooperation and using actions to support Lin Zengxian, a doctor, he became the personal doctor of the well-known speaker.
"Father?"
The one-handed support was changed to two-hand support. Nai Yang looked at Nai Tadashi slightly nervously, observing his expression carefully.
From the high-spirited "old lion" to the current appearance of having to stay in bed for a long time, everyone in the Nai family is particularly concerned about any movement of the old man.
After all, the operation that Mikael performed back then can only be described as a "miracle".
Nai Tadashi is just taking advantage of his good condition today to get out of bed and take a walk.
No one can guarantee that a miracle can be triggered a second time.
"I'm fine."
Opening his eyes, Nai Tadashi calmed down, patted his son's back gently, and turned to look at his granddaughter, who had been standing quietly behind him.
"I understand what your father means. What do you think?"
The conversation changed and Nai Tadashi asked the question to Nai Minami.
Young people cannot always live under the protection of their elders. There will always be a moment when they step into the "battlefield".
My granddaughter knows that Mingjing Nan has no ambitions and has no idea about inheriting the family business. Can she really afford the current arrangement?
"Thank you grandpa, thank you dad, I believe I can do it."
Walking to Nai Tadashi, Nai Nan held his grandfather's hand with both hands, put his palm on the back of the old hand, and gently rubbed it twice with his thumb.
She has understood her grandfather and father's plan.
Nai Tadashi and Nai Yang jointly provided guarantees, and a sum of funds was loaned from Sakura Bank, a subsidiary of the Mitsui family, which was nominally given to Nai Yang to start a business.
In fact, a new company was established in the name of Ming Jingnan. With this capital, which was equivalent to a loan from the family bank, he participated in the cooperation initiated by Lin Zengxian, and multiple parties jointly injected funds to establish a new shipping company.
Lin Zengxian will serve as the chairman and be responsible for operations, while Ming Jingnan and other partners will serve as directors and just wait for the income.
This company established in the name of Ming Jingnan does not even need to have any established structure. Even if it is just a "leather bag company", as long as she enters with the borrowed funds, she can get this share of her own.
industry.
Of course, the premise is that Lin Zengxian's plan is successful and everyone really gets a lot of income.
"Oh? My granddaughter has confidence now, which is a good thing."
His eyes were half loving and half thoughtful. Although Nakai Tadashi had been bedridden for a long time, his eyes were still full of trustworthy power.
"I believe Mr. Lin, his plan will succeed."
Unlike Nai Minami who said "I just know" in front of Nai Kai, Nai Minami told the truth without hesitation in front of her grandfather.
Her confidence comes from Lin Zengxian.
It's not that she thinks this man is very good at business.
But she saw with her own eyes how this man treated his patients;
Knowing how much Saito Maaya and her husband valued this man;
It is said that Prince Carl and the Duchess of Danzig, who have never met, regard this man as their best friend;
And what Saito Maaya told her about this person’s past;
And that day in the mall, this man’s trench coat;
This person said "thank you" and "thank you" to her.
"Well, grandpa knows."
Patting the back of his granddaughter's hand, Nai Tadashi withdrew his gaze and stopped exploring.
The cooperation with Lin Zengxian is a foregone conclusion, and the questions asked now are more of his personal reference.
"Nan, dad and grandpa have other things to talk about. You should go and entertain Mr. Lin first."
After glancing at his father who had stopped talking, Najing Yang grasped the matter that had been swirling in his mind for a long time and decided to send his daughter away first.
After bowing to her grandfather and nodding to her father, Mingnan left her grandfather's bedroom without any curiosity.
"Hehehe...ahem!"
Watching his granddaughter's back disappear at the door, Nai Tadashi shook his head and smiled.
"I'm fine, just tell me."
Turning to the window again, Najing Tadashi watched Lin Zengxian in the courtyard take out his cell phone, wondering who he was talking to.
"Before setting off just now, Sachiko told me her thoughts."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Thinking about the wording, Najing Yang thought about how to make his wife's words more stable.
"Are you considering Nan's marriage? Sachiko has a crush on Dr. Lin?"
Glancing at his son who was still preparing his sentence, Nai Tadashi took a deep breath, calmed down, stretched the arm supported by his son, and slowly moved to the bed and sat down.
"Yes, father."
After setting his father to sit down, Najing Yang also sat by the bed, looking a little uneasy.
Sachiko didn't consider too many factors when considering this matter. As a mother, she just hoped that her daughter would have a happy marriage in the future.
She didn't care that Lin Zengxian was currently only a potential successor to Great Wall Heavy Industries and was at risk of failure at any time.
As long as her daughter likes it and as long as Lin Zengxian treats her daughter sincerely, she is willing to support her.
She also believes in her daughter's ability as an artist and Lin Zengxian's ability as a doctor, and there is no need to worry about the so-called "bread" issue.
However, Najing Yang has more things to consider.
He neither wants to make his daughter's marriage utilitarian, but also needs to consider the internal complexities of both families.
This is not something that can be decided in a short while.
There are always some things that, if you don’t mention them, will sprout in your heart once you mention them.
At this moment, he really hoped to get his father's guidance.
"Let me think about it..."
After stroking his forehead, Nai Tadashi raised his hand and waved his fingers gently.
"Now you have to do another thing first."
Knowing that his father had to weigh more factors, Najing Yang didn't ask any questions and quietly waited for his father's next words.
"Go to Qingdao with Dr. Lin to support him."
Putting his hand on his son's shoulder, Nai Tadashi reluctantly patted him hard.
"If you don't understand something, go and see it with your own eyes."
