Chapter 0716: Wu Guoshan's Meaning
Wu Guoshan said in a calm tone: "I thought you would be modest." ”
"I've started competing with my brothers now, what's the use of being humble. Wu Sheng sighed and said, "If my brother is really suitable to sit in this position, I won't fight with him, I can't fight if I want to, after all, I am just the youngest son, and the youngest is the most favored in ordinary families, but among the wealthy families, the youngest means that it has nothing to do with the position of the head of the family." ”
Wu Guoshan looked at Wu Sheng and said, "Since you know, why are you still fighting?"
"Because they can't. Wu Sheng said with a serious face, "To say bigger, my surname is Wu, and to say smaller, I want to be the head of this family, if they are good enough, they are worthy of the position of the head of the family, then I definitely don't dare to be delusional, but they are not worthy, then I have to weigh it." ”
Wu Guoshan said with emotion: "I, Wu Guoshan, have been proud all my life, but I didn't expect to be blind in this life." ”
Wu Sheng said: "Father, I will make you proud of me in the future, among the four major families in Kyoto, if it is handed over to my eldest brother and second brother, this family is likely to be lonely, my eldest brother's health is not good, once the eldest brother is seriously ill, the Wu family will be completely torn apart, and then the Wu family will begin to weaken." ”
"My second brother's personality is arrogant and arrogant, he has never put anyone in his eyes, if he becomes the head of the family, the moment he really takes power in the future, others are no different from pigs and dogs in his eyes, and the hearts of the Wu family will be scattered at that time. ”
Wu Guoshan looked at Wu Sheng and said, "You saw it very thoroughly when you arrived." ”
Wu Sheng said seriously: "But except for very special circumstances, there are almost no wealthy families who will let their youngest children inherit the head of the family, and the youngest is not easy to convince the public." ”
Wu Guoshan couldn't help but smile: "You even told me about your own disadvantages, do you think I will hand over this home to you?"
Wu Sheng looked at Wu Guoshan and said: "Others naturally won't hand over the family to their youngest child, all they think about is how other families inherit it, and how I should inherit it, but you are no one else, you are Wu Guoshan!"
"When you took over, our Wu family couldn't be compared with the other three major families, but in the end, you brought the Wu family into one of the four major families today, ranking first in terms of financial resources among the four major families!"
Wu Sheng's words can be regarded as evoking Wu Guoshan's good memories, and his eyes are full of light, as if recalling the years when he took off with his family.
Wu Sheng said: "Back then, in the business world, you faced a lot of wars that were more dangerous than my current struggle for the position of the head of the family, right? At that time, you won again and again, and at the end, every step was full of dangers, and this finally turned the Wu family into a giant! Was there a moment when the family was almost destroyed?"
Wu Guoshan was silent for a moment, then nodded, and said in a serious tone: " Twenty years ago, one of the two largest consortia in Kyoto City at that time was me, and the other was Hu Jun, this Hu Jun was also known as the head of the eight horses in the Chinese business world, at that time, our Wu family was weaker, and more importantly, there was one of Hu Jun's family who was in a high position above, and everyone said that our Wu family would be defeated, and it was unwise to say that I was unwise, and Hu Jun was like walking a tightrope head-on, and it was possible that the family would be ruined at any time. ”
Wu Sheng said: "But in the end, you won." ”
"Yes, I won, but that time even I wasn't sure that I would win, but I knew it was right, because if I didn't take the lead in the war, I would die in the end, people can lose, but they must not lose on their knees, and they can't just admit defeat without doing anything. ”
"Then do you want to admit defeat without doing anything this time?" Wu Sheng looked at Wu Guoshan and asked, "Last time you dared to challenge a behemoth that was more powerful than our Wu family, you all know that if you don't do anything, you will lose on your knees, this time do you plan to let our Wu family finally lose on your knees?"
Wu Guoshan was silent, his eyes gradually became firm under the constant flickering.
Wu Sheng's heart was pounding and puffing, and his heart was also very nervous, normally his father should support his eldest brother, but he could also feel that his father's attitude towards his eldest brother was not so resolute, if it weren't for this, how could his second brother rise up to fight for the position of head of the family? But after all, he still doesn't know who his father will support, and the three brothers are fighting to the death outside, and his father can't be unclear at all, but he is pretending to be confused from beginning to end, so that the following sons have to live and die, but he doesn't know who his father is more optimistic about in his heart.
If his father refuses to support him, and even after he confesses, he still wants to stop himself, then what should he do? Wu Sheng was also worried about this in his heart.
Wu Guoshan sighed, with infinite memories in his eyes, and said in a calm tone: " In the life of a father, I have encountered a lot of choices when I am faced with a choice, all say that the wealthy family has no family affection, but this is the only time that the father is entangled, at the beginning of the father naturally hopes to be able to cultivate your eldest brother wholeheartedly, after all, he is the eldest son, just like you said, if the head of a wealthy family has several sons, then supporting the eldest son is the best choice, so as to ensure that the public can be served, the public can be smoothly over, and the rules of the young and the young are established, and the family will not fight infighting, and there will be less consumption. ”
Wu Guoshan's tone was quite regretful: "But your eldest brother's body is not angry, his body has been so weak all these years, I tried my best to find a doctor to recuperate for him, it is useless, it may be because of the long-term weakness of the body, your eldest brother's temperament has also become dark, to be honest, such a temperament is really suitable for being the head of the family, alas." ”
Wu Sheng's heart couldn't hide his joy, and he asked again, "What about my second brother?"
"Your second brother's problem, you have also said before, your second brother's temperament is too conceited, he never takes other people in his eyes, there are too many cities missing, if he becomes the head of the family, he will be calculated sooner or later. ”
Wu Sheng said cautiously: "What about how many of us?"
Wu Guoshan said with a smile: "You don't need to talk to your father here about these false things now, your third and fourth brothers are not successful, and they don't pose any threat to the three of you, and they have no hope, but it's okay, no matter which of you becomes the head of the family, you only need to arrange some things for them to be responsible for according to their ability, and give them some more money, so that they can live this life rich and decent." ”
"As for you....... Wu Guoshan looked at Wu Sheng and said, "I was suddenly curious, since Zong Shao took the initiative to find you, it should be the best choice for you to join forces with Zong Shao, Lin Bad is now facing huge pressure from Zong Shao's side, and he shouldn't have much energy to take care of your side, if you join forces with Zong Shao, I will be more or less scruples, it will be more beneficial to you, why did you refuse?"
"I'm in it for credit. Wu Sheng sighed and said, "I also feel very sorry, if it wasn't that kind of hostile relationship between him and Lin Bad, I might have cooperated with him, but unfortunately, from a realistic point of view, I can only choose one of the two of them, and since I have promised Lin Bad, then I can't go back on my word." ”
Wu Guoshan asked: "Do you know that people who achieve great things are often unscrupulous, and the opportunities in this life are always very limited, and when the limited opportunities are held in their hands, they must be grasped." ”
"I know. Hearing his father say this, Wu Sheng did not panic at all, and said unhurriedly, "The opportunity does need to be grasped, but it also depends on the opportunity to violate the principle of not violating our work, I remember listening to my father talk about business when I was very young, my father said that doing business is the most honest, this is the foundation of our Wu family, even if it has passed for decades or even hundreds of years, this cannot be changed, if it changes, in the end the Wu family will not be the Wu family." ”
Wu Guoshan was surprised: "Do you still remember this?"
Wu Sheng sighed: "Father, you have always had a great influence on my life trajectory, this is because I was born in a wealthy family, so I have to hide a lot of things, don't say what I can't say, hide what I can hide, but your words and deeds to my son, my son will never forget it for the rest of his life." ”
Wu Guoshan asked, "Then think about it, what will you do if I give this family to your two brothers?"
"Then what can I do, then I am also the Wu family, if my brother can tolerate me, I will help them do things, run some Wu family business, if they can't trust me, I think with what my son has learned from you, I will be able to support myself." ”
"Okay, I got it. Wu Guoshan nodded and said, "You go back." ”
Seeing that his father still didn't say anything, Wu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't say anything, stood up respectfully, and said, "Father, I'll go first." ”
"Hmm. ”
Wu Sheng turned around and just pushed open the door, Wu Guoshan suddenly said: "You do have this quality, but do you know what else you need to be a businessman besides being honest?"
Wu Sheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "What?"
"It still needs to be ruthless enough, the mall is like a battlefield, it's actually good for a few of you to fight, after experiencing the cruelty of fratricide, you may have the ability to lead the Wu family and other forces to fight in the future, am I right." ”
Wu Sheng said cautiously: "Then what my father means is ......." ”
"I support you. Wu Guoshan said, "But I don't want me to give you this position, but you personally snatched it." However, my father will naturally provide you with some help, I will hand over all the entertainment and real estate properties of the family to you to take care of, and let all the people in charge of these two properties obey your orders, I think this is also the business you have experienced the most before, you should be able to do it. ”
"Thank you, thank you, father. Wu Sheng said excitedly, he knew that from now on, the outside world basically knew who was likely to be in charge of the next generation of the Wu family, and Wu Sheng's prestige would be completely established.
