Chapter 146 Junior's Counterattack(1/2)
The old man Zhou Guangshan personally spoke.
Wu Gaoyi's matter ends here.
He was fired.
The atmosphere in the Zhou family was a little solid, not at all festive.
Because everyone feels it.
Zhou Jianjun, who had been as humble as a dog in previous years, suddenly straightened up. Not only did he personally come to find the old man and solve Wu Gaoyi's troubles, but he also had the courage to express his opinions in the subsequent series of ancestor worship arrangements.
Regarding Zhou Jianguo's lessons, he is no longer as obedient as in the past and dares to contradict him.
This is a rebellion!
So much so that the New Year’s Eve dinner on New Year’s Eve was much deserted than in previous years.
None of the collateral relatives of the Zhou family were invited.
However, a few women talked lively, which relieved the awkwardness at the dinner table.
"Second brother, can you do it now?"
Zhou Jianguo couldn't help it, ate a few dumplings, and publicly scolded him in front of the women and children, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Shut up!"
The old man who had been silent all this time shouted without raising his head, "Eat!"
Zhou Jianguo glared at Zhou Jianjun fiercely, then stared at Zhou Buqi with squinted eyes, and snorted heavily.
The old man's health is getting worse and worse.
If we follow the trajectory of our previous life...
In May, the old man's good friend, Secretary Xiang, who he had worked with as an educated youth, was about to be transferred away. The Zhou family's biggest backer was gone, and their official status plummeted.
The old man socialized frequently and had constant drinking parties, but the results were mediocre.
Heavy drinking made his health worse and worse, and his kidney failure became more severe. By the end of the year, he lost the ability to take care of himself and was admitted to the hospital.
Wanchao Group was officially handed over to Zhou Jianguo.
In the spring of the next year, the old man's condition worsened and he passed away.
In other words, according to the context of his previous life, the old man only has more than a year left to live.
If you separate, do it as soon as possible!
The old man has worked hard for so many years to build this family business. He has a keen sense of smell.
Just because he doesn't say it doesn't mean he doesn't know.
During the New Year's Eve dinner, he didn't even drink a sip of wine. After eating five dumplings, he threw his chopsticks on the plate and said in a deep voice: "Come here, let me go to the study!"
According to the rules of the Zhou family, juniors and women are not allowed to move.
Zhou Jianguo and Zhou Jianjun quickly stood up.
The old man shook off the support of his two sons, turned around and said, "You two come too!"
Then it was the turn of the grandchildren Zhou Bubi and Zhou Buqi.
When we came to the study room, the old man was sitting on the sofa, with others standing on both sides.
"You opened a milk tea shop in school?" The old man's eyes were burning, as if he could see through people's hearts.
"Yes." Zhou Buqi smiled and deliberately guided the topic, "Li Hongrui, the second youngest son of the Li family, also opened a milk tea shop in school. We met and gave him a lesson."
"It's quite promising."
The old man snorted. He was too traditional-minded and always showed off his personal authority. Even if he gave a compliment, it would sound like a curse.
However, the old man has strict rules and prevents others from interrupting casually.
Zhou Buqi said: "Actually, milk tea shops are just a small business. The reason why I challenged Li Hongrui is for the sake of my family. I know that my grandfather has been taking care of his health in the past few years and has no time to manage the company, which has led to a sharp decline in the group's business.
…”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Jianguo immediately blushed and felt thick-necked.
I feel extremely humiliated!
What does this mean?
Are you saying that my management is not good?
Good boy, your wings are strong!
Zhou Buqi continued to say: "My father has been worried about the decline in the group's business. However, although he is the vice president of the group, he has nothing to do and can't do anything. I don't want to watch Grandpa, you have worked so hard all your life to build something."
My foundation was ruined, so I just wanted to find a way to see if I could help my family."
Zhou Jianguo couldn't bear it anymore and angrily shouted: "Don't talk nonsense! What do you mean the foundation is ruined? The group is fine!"
The old man's face darkened and he glared at him fiercely, "You don't have any rules at all, how can you be an elder?"
"Dad, he..."
"Shut up!"
Zhou Jianguo's face turned the color of pig liver, he covered his chest and swayed.
It's like hitting a brick wall.
The old man ignored him, stared at Zhou Buqi, squinted his eyes and asked, "Are you looking for a way out?"
Zhou Buqi leaned forward slightly and said softly: "Yes, during that time, my dad kept talking to me on the phone about the difficulties at home. It just so happened that Li Hongrui bumped into me. I know that his family runs a pharmaceutical factory, and the family has a big business.
A little moisturizing would be enough to help the family tide over the difficulties. I set up a game and let him get in. Unexpectedly, he really fell for it!"
Dad Zhou Jianjun laughed secretly until his stomach hurt.
During that time, he did often call his son.
However, the real situation at that time was that Zhou Buqi was chasing Wu Yu and was trying to figure out how to push her down quickly, so he asked his father for advice. This was the right person to ask, and his father was definitely an expert. It was like taking a class.
Yeah, I made phone calls for several days in a row.
The old man said calmly: "Well, you did a good job on this matter. Lao Li's order for Chinese herbal medicine is still very important."
Zhou Buqi sighed, "It's a pity that my uncle was greedy for small profits and made a serious misjudgment. He only went to make money and failed to control the quality of the herbal medicine, so that the Li family no longer wanted to cooperate."
Zhou Jianguo almost vomited blood after hearing this!
Crazy!
This kid is crazy!
What does he want to do? He wants to rebel!
In the past ten years, the old man has been the anchor of the Zhou family. He, Zhou Jianguo, is the vanguard general of the Zhou family and the absolute second in command! Even when the old mother was still alive a few years ago, his voice in the family was second only to
Old man.
Unexpectedly, I was criticized publicly by a junior!
It is unbearable!
"You little brat, you know nothing! The order with Aodong Pharmaceutical is a cooperation between two large groups. How can you, a little brat who hasn't even grown a hair, understand that?"
Zhou Jianguo lost his position and became furious.
The old man's face was as gloomy as water.
There was no stopping him this time.
But the disappointment shown on his brows could not be concealed no matter what.
The old man is getting older and his health is getting worse day by day. His greatest hope is that his descendants can live in harmony with him a hundred years from now.
But the eldest son's performance was extremely disappointing.
A few days ago, he even thought about operating on Zhou Buqi's future father-in-law and sending him to prison.
If you don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face, where is the family affection?
Now, he is yelling in the study again, completely losing his dignity as an elder.
Anger can cause disorders in people's nervous system. Zhou Buqi was scolded, but he was very happy in his heart. He keenly noticed the change in the old man's expression.
There's drama!
"Uncle, I am young and do not have as much business experience as you. But I still understand the most basic business common sense. You also said that Wanchao Group and Aodong Pharmaceutical are a cooperation between two large companies. In this case,
What do you mean by asking me to go to the Li family to apologize? Can this save the order? Or do you think the Zhou family should bow to the Li family?"
"Is it difficult to apologize and admit your mistake? Don't you have any spirit of sacrifice for your family?"
Zhou Jianguo was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
Zhou Buqi shook his head and smiled, and said coldly: "Uncle, I think your statement is too ridiculous. Of course I am willing to sacrifice for the Zhou family, but what does the Zhou family take me for? What do they take for my father? Wan Chao
Does the group belong to the Zhou family or to you, Zhou Jianguo?"
