The first part of "Nitrate and Commerce".

June 3, 2017.

My name is Lu Qiao, and I am a junior at Peking University.

I studied marketing at Peking University, which is quite well-known.

But now, it should be that graduation is hopeless.

Of course, it's not because the grades are too bad, the grades that can go to Peking University will be poor.

My grades were very good, and I was almost in the top three when I was a child.

Things have to start with my dad, you have seen a lot of sons cheating on their fathers, right?

How many can there be in the pit son?

My father's surname is Lu, and his single name is a tyrant.

When I was a child, I relied on him for food and clothing.

You probably haven't heard of a road cat car.

Founded in 2006, Road Cat Motors is a Chinese car brand. It mainly produces microbuses, SUVs and family cars. As of the end of June 2008, cumulative production and sales have reached 2.6 million units.

That's right, our house was very beautiful at that time.

。。。。。。

But none of this stopped my dad from falling into gambling.

Before '08, my dad was an honest man who ran the car factory diligently.

Excellent workmanship in exchange for the company's creation in just two years, among the top 15 Chinese automobiles, and there is a rising momentum, almost a dark horse in the business world.

I don't know which bastard took my dad to Macau once.

Since then, it's out of control.

After that, my dad became a regular at Macau's casinos, going to Macau almost once a week.

I don't know what he plays, but from where his parents started arguing almost every day.

But when the quarrel is fierce, how can a mother be a father's opponent. My mom endured domestic violence for a year, and finally couldn't bear it.

In '09 my mom found newspapers and media to publicize it, and my father's reputation was affected to a certain extent. But his father was powerful and powerful, so he forcibly found the media and changed the matter to his mother's cheating and blame.

The two parties filed for divorce, but I was still a minor in elementary school at the time.

At that time, custody was decided, and my dad bribed the judge and part of the jury.

No matter how much evidence the mother has taken and how much family card she has played, there are news reports that almost all of them directly point to her mother's cheating.

But the end result was almost unequivocal, and the judge awarded custody to my dad.

And my mother couldn't stand the media and news that night, and jumped off the building and left the personnel.

I didn't participate in the custody case when the court decided it, and everything that happened afterwards was found out from my grandmother.

Since then, I have held a grudge against my father, but I have always dared not speak out.

09 is the most glorious time for the road cat, but those who know the industry know that the road cat after that case has long been dead in name.

At that time, I was almost entirely in the cram school of various teachers and schools, and I would only go to my grandmother's house on weekends.

And even if I was sentenced to my father, I barely saw him after junior high school.

Later, when I took the college entrance examination, my grandmother wanted me to apply for marketing.

Hopefully, I can learn something to save my father's company, and my grandmother just knows that my father's company is getting worse and worse.

But my grandmother didn't know why, and I didn't dare tell him the truth.

The Road Cat Car Company was almost a mess by his father's deficit, but because of his name, he borrowed money everywhere to pay off his debts. The way of demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall actually made my father run the company for a long time.

At the peak of 09, the annual sales of Road Cat cars were 220,500 units, and then fell all the way to 21,400 units in 2014.

Of course, these never made the gambling addicted father change his mind, and in the following years, his father successively sold 17 factories and nine Road Cat 4S franchise stores.

By 16 years, only two 4S franchise stores and one production plant remained.

After 16 years later, after the Road Cat Automobile transferred ninety percent of its production line to Changan Ford OEM, the annual sales of the Road Cat Automobile fell to 1,971 units in 2016.

And at the beginning of 17, that is, three days ago.

Dad found me over the phone.

When he stood at the school gate and beckoned to me, his right hand was missing three fingers.

Two cups of coffee on the table in the cafΓ© outside the school.

I said lightly, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Dad said with a wry smile: "Don't mention it, I spent 30,000 yuan and learned a thousand from the master a month ago." The perfect thing to say was that he was caught and chopped off three fingers. I wanted to go back to find the master, but I was gone, and I was empty. ”

"You're not looking for me to borrow money, are you? I didn't borrow it from my grandmother? I really don't have any money, and I need 5,000 yuan for tuition fees in my senior year. I said.

"Dad didn't come to talk to you about money, and I feel sorry for you in the past few years. Dad said.

"What's that talking about?" I said.

"I feel sorry for you, so I'm going to give you whatever little I have left. Isn't there another car factory and two stores? I've changed the name of the corporation to you, and I've signed your signature for you. This is the last thing I have, and I'll leave it all to you now. Dad said.

"Signed, did you sign it for me?" I said, surprised.

"This is the last thing I can leave you, so take it. Dad said with a smile.

I nodded helplessly.

"I can't see your grandma anymore, I plan to find a city to do odd jobs for the rest of my life. You don't have to look for me, it's good for me not to see you. After speaking, Dad slowly got up and took a picture of a hundred yuan, and then walked into the distance.

I looked at his back and thought he had an epiphany.

I'm going to leave something for me before I'm about to die.

But everything was so naΓ―ve that I was blown up that afternoon.

It was countless bank arrears and creditor phone calls, one after another that made me reluctantly turn off the phone.

Early the next morning, I went to the only car factory of Road Cat Motors.

One by one, the employees had already arrived at their posts and started building cars.

And as soon as I entered the gate, a man with glasses surrounded me and said, "Are you the son of the road boss?"

"Yes, I'm Luqiao. I said.

"I'm the company's accountant, you can call me glasses. The factory hasn't paid wages to workers for two months, didn't your father give you 500,000 when he gave you the company?" said the man with glasses with a smile.

"What half a million money, by the way, money. I want to ask you what's going on with those debt collection calls?" I said.

"Every money your dad borrowed in the name of the company, so it's all owed by the company. You are now the sole legal person of the company, so all these debt collectors have come to you, and that's it. Glasses said.

"No, I didn't sign or draw at all. I haven't even read the corporate contract for the transfer, so why am I the only legal person?" I shouted.

At this time, the glasses covered my mouth in fright, and all the workers around me stopped what they were doing and looked this way.

The glasses whispered in my ear: "You don't want to be beaten to death by one of these employees, just listen to me." ”

I calmed down and let go of my glasses.

Glasses said with a smile: "This is the son of Boss Lu, the new boss of our company." The big guy's salary will soon be settled, and it will only be more, not less. Everyone keep working, and the sales will go up. The company will not owe it to everyone, come on. ”

Everyone smiled and went on with their work.

The glasses dragged me up to the office on the second floor.
