Chapter 385:
According to the customs of China, there is always a festive ceremony to settle down, and the headquarters building was officially completed, and such a set of processes were also taken in the middle.
Originally, I just planned to do it simply, but I didn't expect it to alarm many people.
The night before the ceremony, Gu Heng was entangled by the girl as soon as he got home, and the girl who had already made several calls earlier to confirm that he would come back tonight was unusual, and as soon as she entered the door, she diligently brought the slippers to Gu Heng, and then asked Guoguo if she had eaten and wanted to drink water?
"Tell me, did you fail the exam?"
Gu Heng, who knew what kind of character this girl was, asked directly, and sure enough, he guessed correctly.
"I didn't mean to, it's all the teacher's fault, the math deducted two more points for me, otherwise I would have won the certificate. ”
Eh, for her fresh and refined defense, Gu Heng couldn't help laughing, she didn't get the certificate in the exam, it was all the teacher's fault, well, there was nothing wrong with it.
The girl's mouth pursed quietly, and she glanced at the silent Gu Dad on the sofa with a little weakness, and finally looked at Gu Heng with a distress look, she knew that in this situation, only Guoguo could be his umbrella, and finally ushered in a long vacation, all she thought about was eating and playing. I don't want to be punished by Gu's father for spending two months with books.
Gu Heng knew that Gu's father was the kind of person who talked about everything based on grades, and he still remembered that when he was studying, every time he took the mid-term final exam, he could enter the top few in the class, then everything would be fine, and he would have a lot more pocket money, on the contrary, if he didn't do well in the exam, it would be more difficult to endure the whole holiday.
Obviously, the girl failed the exam this time, probably because she failed to get good results from Gu's father.
Although he didn't agree with Gu Dad's "merit-only" education method, Gu Heng didn't directly question it, and asked, "Then how many points did you score, and how many places did you rank?"
"99 in Chinese, 97 in math, fifth in the class!"
I was just educated by Gu's father with Gu Heng's deeds of taking the double hundred points test when he was a child, and the girl was a little lacking in confidence.
"Two places short, then 20 days of vacation will be deducted this summer, and then I will enroll you in a cram school. ”
Gu Heng pretended to be serious and issued a verdict, there is this punishment, firstly, in order to take care of Gu's father's face, with his character, if he is not admitted to the top three, he should be punished, and secondly, it is also to let the girl teach a lesson, although grades do not determine everything, but at this age, it is not okay to be too indulgent. In the same way, the girl is still young, and if she is locked up with books and homework throughout the summer vacation, children, childhood can't leave too many shadows.
The girl's eyes turned a few times, a few little fingers moved a few times, after calculating, she felt acceptable, her face showed a smile again, and she ran to the kitchen with a jump, shouting: "Mom, can you eat?"
Gu's father wanted to say something, but Gu Heng intercepted the topic first, and said, "Dad, what are you doing when you go back to your hometown in the past two days?"
"It's okay, just some time ago, your second uncle called me and said that the old house at home seemed to be leaking a little rain, I went back to take a look and asked someone to turn over the tiles. ”
Gu's father said that it was okay, but he hid something in his heart, he had moved to Xiangshi for nearly half a year, and he had to take time to go back for two days almost every month, and he had to bring a lot of things with him every time he went back.
As he spoke, Gu's father lit a cigarette!
suddenly lit a cigarette while talking about something, which meant that Gu's father had other thoughts in his heart, but he didn't say it.
This habit was first discovered by Gu's mother, and later told Gu Heng, so he also knew.
As a son of man, Gu Heng brought his parents to Xiangshi City to let them live a better life, if he didn't live comfortably in Lianshui City, it would be contrary to his original intention.
He couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, he seemed to take it for granted, thinking that giving his parents enough financial and material foundation was good for them, but ignoring their real needs, or rather, he was only busy with his own affairs, but he didn't take the time to chat with them and ask them what kind of life they wanted.
"It's time to eat!"
At a moment of contemplation, the girl jumped out of the kitchen, and Gu's mother followed closely behind and walked out with the dishes.
"Stop talking, let's eat!"
"Open the meal, open the meal!" Dad Gu got up, wiped out the cigarette butt, got up and walked towards the dining table.
After dinner, the family sat on the sofa and watched TV, born in the 60s, Gu's parents didn't know too much entertainment and enjoyment, couldn't surf the Internet, didn't know how to sing K, used to be able to rub mahjong with friends when they were in Lianshui City, and now, the only way to spend time at night is to watch TV.
"Dad, Mom, it's been almost half a year since we moved to Xiangshi, are you still used to living there?"
"It's okay, anyway, every day is to buy groceries and cook, and then I just go to the supermarket and shopping mall. The only bad thing is that the neighbors here don't deal with each other much, unlike in Lianshui City, where they live for half a year, and the neighbors can still chatter if they have nothing to do. ”
Gu's mother's casual words made Gu Heng think a lot.
People are social animals, he tried hard to let his parents integrate into his current level of life, but ignored a reality, that is, whether they can fit in, whether in this city, find friends of the same level and age, out of this, there is no space to communicate with social groups, even if they are given more money, they want to come to the spiritual world is relatively scarce.
And the contradiction lies in this, as the so-called identity and status determine the social level, the group he is in contact with now can be said to be either rich or expensive, and the living environment is not an ordinary family that has the conditions to move in, under such a premise, the neighbors around him can be said to have a certain status, but it is difficult for Gu's father and mother to integrate into such a living atmosphere and mingle with others.
After thinking about it, Gu Heng opened his mouth and said: "Otherwise, let the eldest uncle and the second uncle also come to Xiang City, didn't I promise to give each family millions of entrepreneurial funds before, where is it not to do business, it is better to come to Xiang City, after all, it is a big city, there are more opportunities, and I can also help a little." ”
"Yes, yes, I'm just worried about ......"
Gu's father's eyes flashed slightly, he lit a cigarette again, and said: "People's hearts are unpredictable, before you promised to lend money to let them start a business, they will be very grateful, in the small county town of Lianshui City, a few million is enough for them to start a business." But if you come to Xiangshi, I'm afraid they won't be more than satisfied with what you gave before. ”
Hearing this, Gu's mother's eyes that had just lit up dimmed again.
It is true that she also hopes to let the eldest uncle and the second uncle come to Xiangshi, so that they can move around often in the future and not be too lonely. But the premise of all this is that you can't hold your son back, and in the heart of a mother, her son's status is always in the first place.
"It's okay, I'm measured, anyway, the ugly words have already been said, I give them so much startup capital, I won't give more if I want more, if they really have ideas, then rely on themselves, first work hard to make a name for themselves, make achievements, and when the time comes, if you want to expand your business, I will invest in them." If you don't have the ability, then you can do a small business. ”
Dad Gu didn't nod, just said, "I'm thinking about it!"
The family continued to chatter, and the girl who couldn't interject just now rolled her eyes, shrunk into Gu Heng's arms and talked about the little interesting things in her class.
There is only one theme of the interesting story, probably where the little friend in the class who is not as good as her plans to play in the summer vacation, and the unlucky guy who is often bullied by her shows her where to play......
Then, he blinked and stared at Gu Heng.
This girl didn't forget that Gu's father and Gu's mother had promised her before that if she got into the top three in the exam, she would take her out for a trip. It's just that things have changed now, and I got a fifth place in the exam, so I was embarrassed to mention it openly, so I had to move forward in a roundabout way.
Gu's mother was amused by her pitiful appearance, and scolded with a smile: "You girl, I didn't see your head open when I was studying, and I had a crooked brain when I wanted to go out to play." ”
"That's it, Mom and Dad, think about it, see where you want to go to play during the summer vacation, set a few locations, and I'll help you arrange it. I may not have time to accompany you to go with you, if you are too tired to go with the group, I don't feel at ease if you go by yourself, then I will arrange a long-distance bus for you, and call the uncle and the second uncle together, as soon as there are more people, it will be regarded as a nephew's filial piety to them, and second, it is good to talk to them about coming to Xiangshi. ”
"Eh, you said you run around every day......"
As soon as Gu's mother heard that Gu Heng didn't plan to go, her interest suddenly fell again, and the girl was also full of unhappiness, Guoguo didn't go, if she climbed the mountain road, no one would carry her, and if there were roller coaster games, her mother would definitely not dare to take her to play together.
In the end, Gu's father made a decision and said: "Don't worry about us, it's important to be busy with your own affairs, the entrepreneurial stage is always harder......"
Before the words fell, Gu Heng's mobile phone suddenly rang, and Gu's father and mother glanced at each other, proud and distressed.
What others see is how high and far Gu Hengfei is, only as parents, will they remember whether their son is very tired of flying!
Ten minutes later......
Seeing Gu Heng come in after answering the phone from outside the balcony, Gu's mother opened her mouth and asked, "It's okay, if it's not a big deal, don't go out at night, and you will be in time tomorrow." ”
I have seen a few times when Gu Heng answered the phone in the middle of the night and hurriedly went out, Gu's mother persuaded her without waiting for Gu Heng to speak, she didn't understand any big truth, she only knew that money could not be earned, and the body was the capital of the revolution, don't exhaust your body.
"I don't go out, but the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the official entry of the company's headquarters building will be changed tomorrow, and something must be arranged in advance. ”
…………
The next day, Gu Heng arrived at the company half an hour earlier than before.
Since he was a child, he was forced by Gu's father to exercise a good routine of work and rest, and if there is no emergency, he generally will not easily change his habits.
However, today I had to arrange some things in advance, and last night Feng Jiawei suddenly called and said that the secretary of the municipal party committee would bring people to visit the company's tailoring, and it was sudden, and I had to make some arrangements.
Originally, it was just a good luck and a formality, but now the leader of the municipal party committee will visit in person, and it will be a little unbearable to get over it if it is too cold.
Gu Heng was concerned about this matter, and some people were more concerned than him, Feng Jiawei came to arrange it early in the morning with a customized banner such as "Welcome to the leaders of the municipal party committee to come and guide".
That is the secretary of the municipal party committee, who has become a member of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee, in terms of status, this is not under his old man, in terms of the future, this secretary of the municipal party committee who is several years younger than his old man is even more exceeded, and the leader of the municipal party committee of a provincial capital city like Xiang City, if he goes further, he is generally the governor, and his old man, in two years, will step down.
Growing up in a political family, he may have average ability, but he does not lack the vision of basically judging the situation and sizing up the situation, and knows that when an enterprise develops to a certain stage, it will inevitably have to deal with government agencies, and if he has the care of the top leader of the municipal party committee, even after his old man retires, many things that need to be dealt with in the system will be much easier.
In China, an official-based country, there has never been a purely commercial theory, and when the accumulation of capital does not reach the level that can affect the economic pattern of a province and a city, capital will always be a head short in the face of power.
Unless it is mixed to the level of the richest man in the previous life and Xiao Ma Ge, when the industry spreads all over the country, when its enterprises can affect the economic situation of a province or even a country, then there will be a more active right to speak, because at that level, it is the high-level of the provinces and cities who want to retain these enterprises and contribute to the economic construction of the region.
Obviously, although Gu Heng seems to be beautiful, he is far from reaching the height that can affect the economic pattern of a province, so in the current situation, he also has to abide by the rules of the game, like most of the enterprises, for the visit and guidance of the leaders of the municipal party committee, he must show a flattered appearance, with the most warm welcome ceremony, to welcome the arrival of the leader.
Life is like a play, everyone plays a different role at different stages, and they have to abide by the rules of the game under the current setting of this role, this is the reality!
At nine o'clock in the morning, the newly built Hengchuang headquarters building outside the people come and go, on the ten-story high-rise building, there are red banners, are sent by some nodding friends of the company, the icing on the cake, since ancient times.
At about 9:30 a.m., a convoy slowly drove over, and Gu Heng, Feng Jiawei and others, who had received the news in advance, greeted them.
As a parent official of a city, in the form of economic construction as the theme, he must show enough attention and concern for the star enterprises under his rule, and promise ardent expectations.
As an enterprise, Hengchuang Group also needs such attention, which can not only enhance the influence of the enterprise, but also strengthen the cohesion of the company's employees.
Therefore, the final result can be roughly applied to the evening news report of the day: the secretary of the municipal party committee visited Hengchuang Group and had in-depth exchanges with Hengchuang and other high-level executives, showing strong support for the emerging industry of the Internet, and looking forward to it, hoping that the Internet industry led by Renren will become another pillar industry in the province in the next five to ten years......
The arrival of the leaders of the municipal party committee is just a small episode for the senior management of Hengchuang Group, after the departure of its convoy, in the headquarters conference room on the top floor of the building, Gu Heng held the first group shareholders' meeting.
