Late twenties of the twenty-first century
One night on the eve of the Spring Festival, it was listed in Shanghai
The night is low, the bitter cold of the winter is particularly oppressive, the pedestrians and vehicles on the street are extremely scarce, and the surroundings are solemn.
Located in a high-tech park in the X New District of Shanghai, an enterprise - "New Western Union Co., Ltd." is full of lights, brilliant lights, warm currents, and lively.
The multi-purpose hall on the top floor of the 28-storey office tower is staggered and full of friends, and the magnificent hall is hung with rotating lavish crystal lamps, which are specially opened to welcome the arrival of distinguished guests, and the bright light scorches the hall as if it were day.
The hall is full of clothes and sideburns, and there are plenty of people.
Ladies in Western robes and gorgeous costumes stood in the light with tassel shawls, gathered together dignified and whispered, and women wore wide skirts that were tight at the top and loose at the bottom, swaying and shuttling among the many celebrities.
Most of the men are wearing suits, and in the crowd, you can also see many European and American men and women with white skin and blue eyes.
The owners are holding a celebratory reception for the successful listing of New Western Union shares on the W Stock Exchange.
The guests are mainly directors and supervisors of domestic and foreign enterprises, senior management of enterprises, heads of domestic companies of enterprise groups, shareholder representatives, important partners, etc.
No government officials or media were invited tonight.
The party was presided over by Mr. Song Chumin, director of the office of the group, and Mr. Ouyang Xuan, chairman of the board of directors of the group, did not appear in front of the rostrum, but entrusted Ms. Liu Ying, executive vice president of the group, to make a short and enthusiastic keynote speech, the content of which was mainly around the four words "welcome, thanks".
Mr. Ouyang Xuan, the chairman of the board of directors, was dressed in a black dark striped suit tonight, and his wife, Ms. Wu Yuru, appeared in the center of the hall with high spirits, and the air around him was obviously stagnant.
He is about 40 years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, tall and burly, stoic and upright, bright eyes, and a strong temperament at the helm.
Compared with the most popular ear-length short hair of ladies, Mrs. Wu Yuru's waterfall-like green silk is more dazzling and sultry, under the silver fox fur, the delicately embroidered scarlet robe is smoothly cut from the side of the legs, revealing fair skin and slender legs.
"Ladies and gentlemen, ...... tonight"
The toast with a hoarse magnetism was short and warm, ushered in a round of applause, and the dinner began.
The dinner was a buffet style, surrounded by long tables and white tablecloths, on which a variety of French dishes and drinks, especially French wines and champagnes, were placed on them.
The protagonist of today's party, Mr. Ouyang Xuan, does not seem to be as happy as everyone imagined, but seems a little contemplative.
Soon after the party began, after a polite toast and greeting with the guests, he avoided the noisy celebration crowd, took the remaining half glass of red wine in his hand, and walked alone to the empty terrace on the right side of the multi-purpose hall......
"Chairman, it's cold outside, please ......"
With a pleasant whisper, followed by his beautiful secretary, Miss Ruan Xiaoqiao.
I saw her quickly step forward and unfold it, draped the thickened cashmere coat in her hand firmly on Ouyang Xuan's body, and then turned around and came to Ouyang Jian in an almost waltz step, lifting the collar and lock in one go, showing her extraordinary professionalism, and a pair of eyes as bright as stars glanced at him softly.
Ouyang Xuan smiled and leaned forward to take a nearly half step, his left hand lightly supported Ruan Xiaoqiao's pretty shoulder, and pretended to be an understatement:
"Thank you Xiao Qiao, I'm fine, you go in first, it's cold outside, I just want to be alone for a while, okay!"
"That ......"
Ruan Xiaoqiao hesitated and wanted to say something.
Ouyang Xuan frowned slightly, raised his left hand slightly, waved his hand back, and said gently:
"Go ahead!"
After saying that, he took a big step forward without looking back, Ruan Xiaoqiao of course understood the boss's temper, and quickly bowed his head and retreated to the house.
Ouyang Xuan stood on the edge of the top floor of the building, holding a half-height stainless steel railing, his eyes looking straight ahead, full of emotion......
The night in Shanghai seems to be much more beautiful than the day, it is stylish and dazzling, and the 'LED City Light Show' makes the whole metropolis glow, radiant and fascinating......
Looking up, there are still scattered stars in the sky, and in the vast night sky, although there are gorgeous lights to show off, they are not dotted with stars, which also confirms the truth that "heaven and earth are compatible and endless".
Ouyang Xuan sighed silently in his heart.
Our generation is like the nameless stars in the night sky, pursuing in suffering, exploring in difficulties, struggling in hardships, not afraid of wounds and blood, despair and pain, but always moving forward firmly!
"I may not be worthy of a star, but I am just an inconspicuous speck of dust in the sky that could disappear at any moment!"
Ouyang Xuan muttered to himself deprecatingly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, it seems that only he can experience the bitterness and helplessness of this fine dust tonight.
With the flick of a finger, decades have passed, and countless major events have happened over the years, sometimes hurting muscles and bones, and sometimes life and death.
Just two months ago, his most respected teacher, brother and best friend, Professor Qin Hanyun, the chief scientist of the group, passed away.
Seeing that hope was about to become a reality, Mr. Qin withdrew first, hey, it's really regrettable and sad!
A week ago, the woman he once loved, his confidante Sister Xiu, suddenly said goodbye and went to country M to reunite with his daughter, and left a message "I will permanently settle in country M and never return to China!"
Since then, they have been old friends.
There are also many life-and-death horror experiences, many hurt, dead people, and many regrets. Scene by scene, piece by piece, presented in Ouyang Xuan's eyes like a movie.
The past is unbearable, most of the things in the memory are bitter and painful, but he can't help but be trapped in it, and he can't extricate himself for a long time, Ouyang Xuan can't help but burst into tears.
It was destined to be another sleepless night......
