In the office corridor of Longsheng Group, there was a panicked footsteps, a young man in a suit and leather shoes trotted all the way towards the office at the end of the corridor, with panic and uneasiness on his face, he ran while recalling the tone of the phone call just now, and how to explain his mistakes yesterday for a while so as not to die ugly.

Damn, why is it not good to start with a teacher.

He patted his head, and when he was about to reach the office door, he crept to a stop, took a deep breath, and then straightened his shirt according to the reflective glass, and adjusted his expression.

Hey, such a handsome face, maybe you will have to face the storm later, thinking about it like this, my heart is bitter.

But then I thought, we were at least Huo Jianhua in the Northeast, and it would be over! Zhou Beihai made the final psychological construction in his heart, and then raised his hand and tentatively knocked on the door of the president's office.

Knock knock

"Enter. "An emotionless voice.

The young man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and pushed the door open.

This is a Chinese-style office, as soon as you enter the door, there is a quiet wood fragrance, all the mahogany furniture, hidden behind the huge green pine and white crane screen at the door, this screen is 20 meters long, just to cover the interior, adding a bit of mystery to the already simple and elegant atmosphere.

He walked along the corridor separated by the screen, and faintly smelled the aroma of coffee, the second time he smelled coffee in the president's office, the last time was a week ago, and before that, this office had never had a Western thing like coffee, only the fragrance of tea and wood.

Drinking flower tea in spring, green tea in summer, green tea in autumn, and black tea in winter are Gu Jinhua's habits for many years.

Gu Jinhua single-handedly founded Longsheng Group, how many years of ups and downs in the business world, how many swords, swords, swords, bloody winds, but he arranged the office quietly and elegantly, quite a sense of paradise.

Now he has moved to the United States due to pancreatic cancer, and the operation of this part of the company has been transferred to his only son, ----Gu Zhanqiao, who has been living overseas.

Gu Zhanqiao, who was famous in the company early on, but the dragon did not see the beginning and the end, was only 27 years old, he completely broke away from his father and founded an Internet company that had no connection with his father's industry, and the company has only been in operation for three years, and it has a market value of 10 billion.

Hasn't this young boy always disdained his father's prosperity? Now why he is distracted to care, Zhou Beihai doesn't know.

He only knew that just last week, in this office mixed with the smell of heavy wood and coffee, the new president Gu Zhanqiao entrusted him with one thing.

But yesterday, he messed things up because the car broke down, damn it, why did he have to go to the mountain to attend some college reunion yesterday, and then he was unlucky to meet the once-in-a-century thing of closing the mountain, and if he couldn't go back, forget it, call his colleagues, and it happened that several good relationships went on annual leave, so he could only risk dying in the group to ask who was free to help him get a contract, and there was no response in the group for a long time.

But who knows, I don't know which fool pulled Gu Zhanqiao into the work group, and then the new master actually asked him for the address directly in a private message, and went in person...

Unbelievable and particularly unlucky.

Hey, it's really bad luck every year, especially this year.

The so-called three fires for the new official to take office, today, he Gu Zhanqiao is ready to use me Zhou Beihai as the first torch in this matter, right?

Zhou Beihai walked to the corner of the screen while thinking about it, and he saw Gu Zhanqiao standing by the floor-to-ceiling window looking out of the window, and the coffee was still steaming on the mahogany table next to him.

On the 139th floor of Longsheng Building, the president's office, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows on three sides, the sun is dusky in late autumn and early winter, and a large area is poured on the slightly flooded mahogany furniture, all of which are plated with a layer of gentle filters.

Gu Zhanqiao's long back was shrouded in soft light, revealing a soft, raw texture temperament, not sharp at all.

Zhou Beihai looked at this scene, and his heart relaxed a lot.

"Has the person in charge of the construction case of Zhengyi Middle School changed?" Gu Zhanqiao opened his mouth coldly, but his gaze was still stopped outside the window, and the air was much colder for a moment.

"I have always been Director Yu Qing before, but she was physically inconvenient and changed to a male teacher, but I received a call last night saying that I had changed back to Director Yu, but this time a young female teacher was added as a helper. Zhou Beihai thought about it, and sure enough, it was the engineering problem of Zhengyi Middle School, and hurriedly reported what he knew about 1510.

"Then you are still in charge of this case, and you will send me all the information you have collected about Zhengyi in a moment. "It's still a voice with no emotion.

"Okay, I really couldn't go back yesterday..."

"Needless to say, I don't need to say anything that can't be changed, just report any engineering problems about Zhengyi directly to me in the future. ”

Zhou Beihai wanted to say something, but when he saw that Gu Zhanqiao didn't mean to talk anymore, he held back.

Until Zhou Beihai walked out of the office, Gu Zhanqiao didn't look at him.

But fortunately, as long as he was not criticized, Zhou Beihai breathed a sigh of relief.

However, since Longsheng Group began to participate in the bidding of Zhengyi New School, to his appointment as the person in charge of this project, to yesterday's president personally going to get the contract, to today, Gu Zhanqiao has no waves, which makes Zhou Beihai extremely confused.

According to a well-known real estate company at home and abroad like Longsheng, no matter how big the case is, it is rarely taken into account, and the construction of a district middle school has made the new president so concerned.

In particular, this is the first case that Gu Zhanqiao is responsible for after taking over Gu Jinhua's position, as the new president, the first case must be handled with difficulty, so as to show strength, let the old men on the board of directors shut up, or be smart and seek stability, you should also find a decent case, whether it is beautiful or not, at least it will not be true.

But now the case of Zhengyi Construction is too small, and even if it is successfully completed, it will not be a matter of much to handle, and it is not difficult for him to imagine the disdain of the board of directors after learning about this case.

However, people like Zhou Beihai who eat and wait for death never care about the company's high-level infighting, especially after Gu Jinhua fell ill and left the country, and the domestic real estate entered a cold winter, and the whole company was shrouded in a trembling atmosphere.

During this time, the undercurrent of the board of directors was surging, standing on the verge of falling apart, and the employees were also busy standing in line, the veteran faction headed by Xue Dayue and the foreign relatives faction headed by Zhang Hongjun were equal, during Gu Jinhua's illness, the shareholders of the two factions quarreled over the recommendation of the president, but no one expected that Gu Lao would successfully persuade his son Gu Zhanqiao to take over the position.

The two parties didn't expect the possibility of Gu Zhanqiao taking over, but when they thought that Gu Zhanqiao had such a big company to manage abroad, how could they not take his father's traditional industry in their eyes, not to mention that Gu Lao and Gu Shao had a discordant relationship, which was a well-known thing.

However, what was upset was that Gu Zhanqiao really came back to take over, and for a while, the company was in a mess, and the people who chose the side began to stand in line again, and those who offered their hospitality to Gu Zhanqiao were even lined up on Chang'an Street.

Zhou Beihai only thought it was funny, he was too lazy to participate in right and wrong, and he had planned to work for another two months to get the bonus and leave.

But at noon one day, a sudden phone call was inexplicably called to the office by Gu Zhanqiao and said that he was in charge of the construction project of the new school.

At that time, Zhou Beihai thought, what? How big is this thousand-year-old pancake that smashed on my Zhou Beihai's head, and he was a little dizzy. But if you think about it, it doesn't seem like a bad thing? If you hit it, you can eat two bites? Maybe you can get promoted?

As for him Gu Zhanqiao, who studied in Britain and the United States, studied computer science and successfully founded a technology company abroad, and had a market value of more than 10 billion, why did he temporarily abandon his company and take over his father's stall, and in the spotlight, in all the cases at home and abroad, only a small school was chosen as the "next horse".

In the end, Zhou Beihai had to give up, perhaps, the big man has 80,000 layers of walls with mortals such as me, and the little man should not waste brain cells, eat more, sleep more, eat more chicken.

Gu Zhanqiao didn't expect Zhou Beihai to have so much inner drama, and he wouldn't think about it.

At this time, he was still standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, and the dim sunlight enveloped him again in a gentle mist.

I don't know how long Zhou Beihai has been out, after the careful closing of the door just now, only his slight breathing and heartbeat were left in the entire office, he turned around and picked up the coffee on the table, put it to his mouth, only took a sip, and hung the cup in his hand without moving, the coffee was cold, and there was no heat at all.

Gu Zhanqiao thought, could it be that everything in this world will change with time? Just like this coffee, it will become cold after an hour, deteriorate after a day, and evaporate after a year until only a dry black circle at the bottom of the cup remains, and it will be wiped out in ten years.

He thought of this, his heart ached, just as ten years ago, the first winter he had arrived in London, he had climbed the Shard and looked to the east, there was nothing but the gray air the farther and farther away, and now he had climbed to the top of the city, but he could faintly see where she worked.

Then, he tilted his head and drank the cold coffee in his hand.

Even if it's cold, it's going to be hot.

Gu Zhanqiao was looking at the information sent by Zhou Beihai intently, and the WeChat call video suddenly rang out.

He ignored it at first, but the phone kept ringing, he was a little irritable, took the phone over, and smiled softly when he saw the delicate face on the screen, and the corners of his mouth were full of gentle warmth and nodded to the video.

Before he could speak, the other party didn't let go, and his voice was sweet, "Oh, Mr. Gu is very busy, so I don't care about his cutie." ”

"It was very busy. ”

The girl over there pouted, "Hmph, then you're busy, since you don't care about people so much, then hang up." The girl feigned anger and pouted with anger.

Gu Zhanqiao looked at the screen with a gentle and indifferent look, and let the girl fool around.
