"No problem. She said. Out the door, the assistant followed her into the hallway, and they entered the elevator, which was originally low-key, but the news of the Lapis Group has been noticeable lately.

When I arrived at the hall on the first floor, the front desk staff saluted the chairman and others. Su Xiaoqi walked forward under the protection of security personnel, followed by assistants and several backbones of the lapis company. As soon as the sliding door opened, they were greeted by flashing lights and follow-up questions.

"Is this decision related to you to transfer the investment of the Lapis Group, and is there any pressure to take charge of the two listed group companies?"

"Is Dugardefiel's opening of an auction house in New York to expand into the United States?"

"Katerina, what are your plans for the development of Lapis after you take over, and do you want to integrate it into Dugardfeld's style model?"

"There are some rumors from the outside world that the Lapis Group's overseas investment is losing money, and some industries are on the verge of collapse. A reporter duly interjected, "What do you think about the problem of getting into more trouble to repay the principal that is due?"

A light reflected under the reporter's lens, "How much trouble is the lapis group in at the moment, and was the car accident of the former chairman an accident or deliberate?"

The question was sharp, to the point, and the scene that was still noisy just now suddenly quieted down. She turned to face reporters, "I am currently temporarily serving as chairman, the president of Lapis is still Chell, the accident of the former chairman was an accident, and the departure of the CEO, in the long run, will not have any impact on the development of Lapis." ”

The young woman looked around at the crowd, "Lapis and Dugadefier have different business models, they are two different businesses, and they don't use the same management style. I have had a great time working with people like Cell, who has great ability, vision and overall vision, and is an excellent business manager. ”

The woman was confident and smiled: "As for some news about lapis, I just didn't expect that the rumors on the street would also be believed." However, the facts will eventually prove that the spokesperson of the group will announce the news of lapis to the public, including several jù, and these rumors will soon be self-defeating!"

A black sedan pulled up in front of the woman, and she leaned over and got into it.

The black sedan slid smoothly, the phone rang, and the secretary handed it over, "Miss Katerina, it's Mr. Levi calling." ”

She took the phone and immediately heard a familiar voice smile gently, "Is the meeting still smooth?"

"One qiē is good. Su Xiaoqi said.

Levi sat at his desk, stared at the computer screen and said, "I read the news, and the stock price of Lapis fell more than yesterday. ”

Su Xiaoqi said lightly, "That's right, someone is attacking the company under Lapis. She read some materials and noticed that since two years ago, some people have been looking for individual defects in Lapis products, creating a storm, using the media, and amplifying them.

The market is first and foremost a war of minds and perceptions, and secondly of products. Opponents use hype, amplify influence, classify other products as defectives, cause sales to drop, and spread rumors and panic about the debt situation of Lapis' companies.

Su Xiaoqi put down the information in his hand, "The affairs of the company will be handed over to you!"

Levi raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry! Dugardfeld is here, at least I can share the pressure for you and concentrate on dealing with the affairs of Lapis." ”

She furrowed her brows slightly: "Levi, I need you to find someone now, who is authoritative in the field of economics and serves as the external spokesperson of Lapis." ”

Li Wei responded: "I will look for a suitable candidate." ”

After hanging up the phone, the car she was in had already driven up a wide avenue, and gradually drove to the end of the road, turning left into a street where Chinese and Western walls combined.

The black sedan pulled up on a lawn, and a Chinese-style building surrounded by greenery came into view.

After getting out of the car, she entered the gate, protected by her bodyguards. Along the way, you pass through pavilions and pavilions, and a road paved with white gravel leads to a quaint house.

In front of the door stood a man in a Tang costume. As soon as he saw her, he said, "Miss, please come in!"

Entering the door, Su Xiaoqi paced a few steps in the room and stood in front of the hall. The ancestors of the Wang family are enshrined here, and according to legend, one of the princes of Ji Zhou gave up the throne, and the people called them the Wang family, and they later took the king as their clan.

The more noble the person, the thicker the family style, the higher the rank, and the stricter the family discipline. Trainers, regulators, and trade-offs. Those rich and long family members have family mottos, and it is difficult for outsiders to know. Today, she has been invited here, and Mr. Mei must have something important to discuss.

A man in a cyan elegant cardigan appeared, and it could be seen from the gray sideburns on his forehead that he had passed the age of no doubt, and he walked over to Su Xiaoqi and said, "Miss, please take a seat." ”

Su Xiaoqi walked to the carved wooden chair opposite and sat down.

Mei Xian was alive, and the man behind him put a nanmu box on the table. She looked at Mr. May beside her—this was the box when the lock was opened, and there was a gold filigree carved box inside.

It turns out that something that can't be found in the outside world is actually here.

Now she knew that Mr. Mei was just a pseudonym, that he was a hermit who served the Wang family, and that Donna had entrusted the box to Mr. Mei before the accident.

He carefully handed over the object to Su Xiaoqi.

She slowly lifted the lid of the box along the gap, her pupils gradually dilated, and her fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly, "This...... Why give it to me?"

Mr. Mei said: "When you announced that you would only hold 5% of the shares forever, I knew that Miss was someone who deserved to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility. ”

The departure of the former CEO is no accident, the departure of the leader will make his subordinates scatter and flee, just like the leader of the grassland runs away, and the sheep behind do not know what to do, and they run more and more.

Katerina's acting chairman, she knows exactly what Lapis's opponent wants to do-

The volatility of the lapis share price is related to the intervention of counterparty capital. Use the media in the first step to attack, hype, generalize, spread rumors, destroy its credibility, and make creditors force debts.

The next step is to attack the banks it works with. Stock price volatility is to let the stock fall to the bottom without any buyers.

Lapis has enough cash flow to hold on even if it is forced into debt, so it's time to start breaking up the company.

Man is a blind animal, when starting from the front line to a large number of salespeople leaving, it will cause panic in other departments, and the panic in the department will continue to the individual...... Under this contagion, the combat effectiveness will quickly disintegrate.

This move is interlocking, poaching people from the line, and the interior will collapse like the Maginot Line.

At this point, people are panicking, stocks and bonds fall to the bottom, and a company is often powerless, as if falling into hell, and rivals will appear at this time, playing the role of savior, buying and swallowing up its high-performing companies at the lowest price.

Mr. Mei looked at everything in his eyes and understood that the young lady was not wrong, Katerina asked Chel to continue to serve as president, and gave dividends to set up a fund, leaving no chance for the opponent.

This is the reason why he decided to hand over the box to Su Xiaoqi, which contained the real bills of the Wang family in major banks. For people like them, the most impressive thing is probably the competition between the consortiums over the years, and the capital strength behind the rival matrix is very deep, and the relationship between the two dates back to the last century.

"Can I meet Wang Na?" she asked.

Mr. Mei said, "Let's make arrangements, and you can meet her tomorrow." ”

In the foothills of the Alps, a luxury villa stands high on the hill, and the lawn of the airport is covered with a thin layer of snow.

The place where Su Xiaoqi went with the security personnel was very hidden, they entered the garden, the surroundings were silent, and at a glance it would make people mistakenly think that there was no one here, but the shadows dangling above the corridor and balcony reminded them that the guards here were actually quite tight.

Su Xiaoqi walked to the ward, and when she saw the woman on the bed, she took a deep breath, and now she knew how badly Donna was injured, with scars on her forehead and face, and red burn marks everywhere on her arms and back.

Donna slowly opened her eyes, "You're here?"

Su Xiaoqi walked over and sat down on the edge of her bed, "Donna, I've come to see you!

She leaned her head on the bed pillow and shook her head gently, "I'm happy to see you now, and I feel less pain on my body." ”

Su Xiaoqi leaned over and helped Donna sit up slowly and with difficulty, and finally couldn't help it, and asked, "Do you know, who did it?"

Donna raised her eyes, stared at Su Xiaoqi's face, and slowly spoke: "Our long-time opponents, a rose can become their secret code. I'm afraid no one knows Matrix and the forces behind Matrix better than I do. ”

"As far as I know, they have been in existence for a long time, as long as the Wang family, and for nearly a hundred years, there has been a conflict with the Wang family, and the place where they operate is next to the west of a white mansion, and there is a rose garden nearby to keep a qiē secret. ”

Donna turned her head, "They can't do without secrets, and once the secrets are made public, it means that the plan has failed." Because its success must be through dark means. ”

Donna didn't care about the injury on her face at all, lowered her eyelashes, and smiled faintly, "My uncle made me have an epiphany about Zhuangzi Heavenly Dao, and understand the emperor's state of mind in Heavenly Dao, I have never been able to understand it, what is the use of the epiphany king's state of mind for me? How can I do nothing? ”

"Through Lao Tzu Zhuangzi Heavenly Dao, I found that the model of emperors and courtiers in the universal sense of the world, where the king's sovereignty comes first and the courtiers come last, is completely different from the model of emperors and courtiers in the way of heaven. ”

Donna lowered her eyelashes, "Under a wedge, I finally realized that the king should follow the laws of nature, do nothing, and the courtiers follow wisdom and have a plan, this is the relationship between the emperor and the minister in the way of heaven that I have an epiphany, and the king is just an assistant minister to play in front of the curtain under the laws of nature." The king's tolerance, acceptance, understanding, and cooperation, even if it is a minister who kills his own father. The emperor does nothing, and does nothing. There is a key point in the king's inaction, which is to learn to trust his courtiers. ”

She stretched out her hand, held Su Xiaoqi's hand and said, "Don't forget, you are my friend." Xiaoqi, you just have to do it, don't worry too much. Because I will believe in you and support you at all times. ”

Su Xiaoqi shook Donna's hand back: "Donna, I won't return, since the bank is unwilling to return what is owed to the Wang family, and those people set up obstacles and hurt you, then I will expose its conspiracy to the light of day." ”

Suddenly find that whether sick or healthy, poor or rich, wishful or unsatisfactory...... This solemn and nostalgic treatment between people, this precious trust, may be the most extravagant thing in the world, but it is worth pursuing.

As she got off the plane, a man in a black trench coat walked up to her, took off his hat, and smiled: "Miss Katerina, I'm your international personal butler Bernart." As you agreed with us, there are two more things. ”

She pulled out two pictures from her pocket and handed them over—"I'm going to meet these two people, can you do that?"

Bernat took the photo and glanced at it, and he said, "Rest assured, whether you want to dine with a member of the royal family or meet with a political leader, we can arrange it for you soon." ”

The banquet hall reflects the splendor of the room, simple and grand, low-key and luxurious. Intricate arabesques bloom silently in every corner of this place, like the spread of power.

Lord O'Neill walked up to her: "You've arrived, Katerina, congratulations on hearing that you have become the chairman of the Lapis Group." ”

Su Xiaoqi smiled at Lord O'Neill and stepped forward, she walked into the hall to greet the guests, and there was an ice sculpture of a goddess statue erected on the table in the reception hall. Around the ice sculptures, piles of caviar, salmon fillets, prawns, lobsters, crab meats and baskets of chilled champagne are piled up.

One of them asked her, "What about the economist? Why didn't he come?"

Immediately reacted, because the last time she was present with Mr. Keb, she was regarded by everyone as lovers, and afterwards, the two of them did not explain it to the others.

Su Xiaoqi was about to speak, but Lord O'Neill muttered: "I won't accompany you to important occasions, is he that a lover?"

They turned around, and a silver-haired man with a wine glass came over with a blonde beauty, "Miss Catherine, so you have recently returned from abroad. ”

Catherine said to the silver-haired man, "I didn't expect you to attend the reception, but Egbert didn't come today. ”

After saying this, she turned to them and said, "It turns out that Miss Katerina already has a lover. ”

Catherine hadn't seen her before, and had never seen her as an opponent.

Now that Egbert had left an important meeting last time, she felt that his actions had something to do with someone, and she felt that she should come and meet the little girl she had despised at the beginning.

The daughter of the Wilson family, the new chairman of the Wang family, and the head of the Wilston family gathered here, and the eyes of others present cast their eyes here.

Nolan said with some meaning: "Not all partners are true partnerships. What do you say? Miss Catherine. ”

Karina took off her white gloves, "Mr. Nolan, if you have to say something, I'm just explaining it from Vedic Points. Dam-patye (husband and wife relationship) relies only on abhirucih, abhirucih means like, girls like boys, boys like girls. That's good, get married now! Divorce after six months. Because this marriage happened out of superficial liking, not on a deeper level. ”

She lowered her golden eyelashes and said in a clear voice: "So the key point is to calculate before you get married: will the couple live happily? As Krsna said to Rukmini, a woman should find a suitable husband, who actually has to match you in terms of wealth, family background, wealth, education, etc., which is usually only more effective than choosing that person." ”

Catherine's gaze fell on Su Xiaoqi's body, and a smile appeared on her face, "But I believe that Miss Katerina and her lover are suitable. ”

Nolan swayed his drink and said: "Actually, I have a view: a couple, the man has an affair, the woman has a lover, there is a rift, most people will judge according to morality, the man is ungrateful, and the woman is watery fireworks, but unfortunately from a phenomenological point of view, moral evaluation is often deviated from the truth." Further, the man and woman in this partnership are only physical, not substantial. ”

"Sir, that's because women are educated to grasp the relationship in the future. If she can't keep her husband, it must be the woman's fault, and of course, I believe that Miss Katerina's relationship with her lover will go well. ”

Catherine raised her glass and smiled at her, "I wish you all the better and better relationship." ”

Su Xiaoqi looked at the cup in her hand, raised her head and drank it down, put the cup on the long table and said, "Thank you, I still have something to do, so I will leave." ”

She walked to the west side of the hall, and a waiter stepped forward to lead the way for Su Xiaoqi and said, "The gentleman you want to see has already arrived." ”

Through a hallway, she came to a door, which the waiter pushed open for her, and the room was covered with a gorgeous carpet. She knew that the reason why she was standing here today was because of money and power, and that without the wealth of Lapis, without the fame of Dugafield, and without the opportunities provided by K-Club, she would not have been able to carry out this plan.

Standing on the carpet was a man in a strict suit who was a powerful figure in the political circles, his hair was neatly combed, his face was well-defined, and his eyes were shining brightly, staring at Su Xiaoqi.

Su Xiaoqi walked over, "Hello, I'm Katerina, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

The meeting was known only to the parties concerned, and it was already 1 p.m. at the end of the meeting.

The man sat on the chair, looking at the woman's distant figure, the first time they met, it was a little different from what he imagined, Katerina was not the image of the Iron Lady with black hair draped over the back of her head and a fierce helmet of Madame Zachir as described by the media.

Walking out of the hall, she came out into the open-air garden, where a long table was filled with various drinks, brandy, dried white grapes, vodka...... Some well-dressed men are raising their glasses and talking.

"Katerina," a voice said from far and near.

When she looked back, it was Nolan. Wilston, whose silver hair sparkles in the sun, was no coincidence that the two of them met again.

Nolan smiled and said, "I heard that the next direction of GUI will focus on green capital research?"

Su Xiaoqi nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Nolan walked up to her, "Actually, in terms of cost, it's not cost-effective, you can think about it again." ”

Hearing this, a smile rose slightly at the corner of her lips, "Sir, we are all businessmen, so we naturally talk about return on investment." But in many cases, many things, not all can be considered in terms of benefits and results. If our lives are all such utilitarian and realistic, leaving no room for future generations, then what will we face ourselves in 50 years?"

With that, she was about to leave.

"I have something important to tell you. He seemed to mean something.

Su Xiaoqi couldn't help but look back, and a famous man in a suit walked from behind Nolan, holding a silver plate with a rose in his hand.

He lowered his silver eyelashes, "The world is actually very simple, but not many people know about it. We use words to describe her as choices, decisions, changes, good and evil, etc., but there are very, very few people who can really make choices. ”

"Everyone who receives an invitation and goes there, they have the power to create zào and destroy miè, but usually, they don't know how to use it. “

Nolan picked up the rose and opened his mouth: "You came here, it's some kind of traction, it's a variable. ”

His gaze moved to the rose in his hand, "Chuangzào, I understand the meaning of these two words." I don't understand how terrifying its power is. ”
