Chapter Twenty-Three: Conversation in the Study

"If a woman's world is in the kitchen, a man's world is in the study".

The study has always been a man's territory, and sitting in the study can bring men some satisfaction that cannot be achieved in reality.

As early as the Han Dynasty, the literary scholar Zhang Heng once praised his study for "playing the wonderful fingers of the five strings, singing the books of Zhou Kong, waving Han ink to strive for algae, and the track model of Chen Sanhuang". The Baume & Mercier's study must have a different taste, and it is a men's private space with multiple functions such as art experience, reading and writing, book collection, and meeting friends.

Honest as Zhou Zuoren, he will also say: Your study should not be seen by others, because this is a dangerous thing, and you are afraid of being seen in your mind.

Although Ye Lanting was born in the military, he liked to read very much, and no matter how busy he was every day, when he went home at night, he would insist on reading in the study for at least 1 hour.

This is also one of the few times of the day when he can read and think quietly by himself.

Therefore, from the time Ye Shikun was very young, his father's study and collection room were places that he found very mysterious and attractive.

Pushing open the door and entering, I saw Ye Lanting sitting on the single sofa near the window, reading a book.

He was dressed in a house robe, with gray hair and a pair of glasses on his nose, like an ordinary old man.

He is not at all like the chairman of Yuanfeng Group, who is always high-spirited and straight-suited, the top 20 of the Forbes China Rich List, the figure of reform and opening up, and also serves as the vice president of the China Civil Chamber of Commerce, the vice president of the China Enterprise Confederation, the vice president of the China Entrepreneur Association, the vice president of the China Chamber of Commerce, the vice president of the China Charity Federation, the president of the China Township Enterprise Association, the president of the Sanjiang Enterprise Confederation and the Entrepreneur Association, the representative of the 14th and 15th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the representative of the Ninth National People's Congress...... and a series of prominent social positions of business tycoons.

The study is decorated in the style of an American study, with huge bookcases on both sides against the wall reaching the roof, which are full of all kinds of books, and under the bookcase on the left side, there is a huge cherry wood classical American desk;

By the window is a small round table, on both sides of the round table are two single classical sofas, at this moment Ye Lanting sat one, Ye Shikun walked over and sat on the other sofa on his side.

"Dad,...... I am back. ”

"Hmm......" Ye Lanting raised his head and looked at Ye Shikun.

"Do you see Yin Yin?" the first sentence he said made Ye Shikun a little stunned.

"Not yet...... , After seeing my mother and Jiajia, I came up directly. Ye Shikun replied a little ashamed, after all, Yin Yin is his daughter, and after she was born, she really did not fulfill her responsibilities as a father.

I thought that Ye Lanting would reprimand him, but he didn't think that the old man would listen to it, so he just nodded: "Then you can go and have a look, Yin Yin is very cute......"

Ye Shikun hurriedly agreed: "Okay, I'll go over to see her in a while." ”

Ye Lanting nodded silently and looked at him, not knowing what he was thinking in his deep eyes.

Ye Shikun suddenly had an inexplicable feeling that his father seemed to be old......

Ye Lanting was born in 1949, is the same age of the republic, 83 years old when he started his business was 34 years old, to this year is just 60 years old, it is said that if abroad, the 60-year-old chairman, in fact, is not old, still belongs to the stage of young and strong, but the country is different.

Ye Lanting as a soldier, farming, business, along the way, along with the process of China's reform and opening up, has experienced countless ups and downs, and has made every effort to develop and grow Yuanfeng Group, and has put too much effort.

On the outside, he looks older than his actual age.

If he is out at a meeting or attending an event, he may also have to dye his hair and appear energetic, so he will naturally relax when he comes home.

Ye Shikun couldn't help but ask, "Dad, are you okay?"

Ye Lanting nodded: "It's good, your mother and Xiao Song are staring at me every day to drink soup, can it be bad?......" He was born in the northeast, but went to the south to serve as a soldier, and later met Aunt Song and is from eastern Guangdong, and now he is forced by his wife every day to drink soup in eastern Guangdong, and he is miserable, and he can't help but vent.

Ye Shikun also laughed: "It's a good thing to drink more soup to nourish your body." ”

The father and son chatted for a few words, and then they got to the point.

"What Lin Qinglian was before, what's going on?" Although the things in the company are the main thing, the old man remembered the origin of calling him back again.

Ye Shikun paused, and then said: "It's all spread by those reporters outside, she is my good friend...... Dad, has the company had some business problems recently? Shiting and Shixuan have called me many times......"

After he answered briefly, he hurriedly changed the topic, fearing that the old man would follow the topic and start talking about his divorce again.

In fact, Ye Lanting really wanted to take advantage of Lin Qinglian's incident to make another fire.

For the divorce of Ye Shikun and Tong Jiajia, he couldn't let go, on the one hand, he felt sorry for his old comrades-in-arms, sorry for Tong Jiajia, and on the other hand, he also felt sorry for his good granddaughter Yin Yin......

However, hearing Ye Shikun's words, his mind also turned to the affairs of the group.

After pondering for a while, he spoke: "In the past two years, you have made some investments on your own outside, and your development has been very good, and I am also very pleased after hearing about it...... However, the company is your root, I know you complained that I didn't support you last time, and frankly, I didn't understand your theory of high-tech agriculture at first......"

"Recently, I accompanied the Prime Minister on a trip to the United States and Europe, and I also visited some large foreign companies, and I was very impressed. ”

"Now, whether it is the scale-type, mechanization, and high-tech model represented by the United States, or the composite model of intensive production and mechanical technology represented by Europe, the level of improved breeding, mechanization, chemistry, and electronics is relatively high, and at the same time, the combination of agricultural capital and industrial and commercial capital, and the large group strategy of production, supply and marketing as one of the large-scale groups, and the high-tech agriculture that you have been mentioning before, and the idea of combining finance is almost the same......"

"We old guys are used to the traditional way, unlike you young people, who are lively and broad-minded. It's still conservative in accepting new things......"

Ye Shikun rarely saw his father say this to him so gently, and he was surprised and a little moved.

He had thought that he would have to go through a storm of rebukes at least first.

Now it seems that the old man may have been touched after looking around outside.

couldn't help but comfort Wen Yan: "Dad, I can't say that, I may have been too radical before, and I didn't make preparations, so that those uncles can understand the benefits of reform and innovation, I don't blame you." ”

Ye Lanting nodded: "When you come back this time, just tell me what is going on with those things you want to get, if you can let me understand first, I will help you get those guys." ”

Ye Shikun is overjoyed, if you can get the old man, then you don't need to be so troublesome, and you can go to the secondary market with Yi Feng and Jiang Chengxin to make the wind and rain!

Ye Lanting single-handedly founded Yuanfeng, which can be described as a man of his word and prestige within the group.

The elders of the board of directors may dare to fight against Ye Shikun, but with 10,000 guts, they don't dare to go against Ye Lanting.

nodded excitedly: "Okay, Dad, I'll prepare some materials and report to you one day!"

Ye Lanting also smiled: "Okay, since I'm home, I'll spend more time with your mother in the past two days, she has always missed you, as well as Jiajia and Yin Yin......"

The old man wanted to continue, but Ye Shikun quickly stood up: "Dad, I'll go see Yin Yin......"

I was most afraid that the old man would mention Tong Jiajia, so he quickly escaped from the study.

Alas, it's good to go home and do anything, but the cause of what you planted before can only bear the fruits yourself.
