Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Beginning of the New Year

The Lunar New Year is a grand festival for everyone in the Celestial Empire, but Liang Baoguang may have stayed outside for too long, and it is difficult to feel what it means to "celebrate the whole world and rejoice in Kyushu", so the concept of the Spring Festival is gradually blurred. For him, the word "Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info New Year, that is, he accompanies Liang Gesheng to celebrate the New Year on Chinese New Year's Eve night every year, and there are no other activities.

Both of them don't like formalism very much, and they don't like to be lively, so every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, Liang Gesheng personally regulates a few small dishes, and the grandfather and son sit together to drink two cups, and then watch the show and chat casually, and wait until zero o'clock to go out and throw a string of firecrackers is over. After the bell rang at 0:00, it was already the year of Bingxu, and Liang Gesheng put the firecrackers and lighters into Liang Baoguang's hands, "My hands are cold, you can order this year's firecrackers." ”

"Okay, then I'll go. Somehow, Liang Baoguang suddenly felt that his father's action had a kind of handover, and he didn't say anything, took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, and then leaned the lead of the firecracker on the cigarette butt, and quickly threw it out after hearing the sound of the move.

"Crackling, crackling. "Although the firecrackers were only a short part and stopped abruptly after a few sounds, they were still noisy in the quiet midnight. Firecrackers are not allowed in South Korea's cities, but the surrounding residents know that it is Chairman Liang of the Xinsheng Group who lives here, and who dares to touch his moldy head without incident? They don't even dare to stop and ask questions when the police cars on patrol at night pass by, and they are just simple and kind ordinary people.

"It's a shame that the two of us are in South Korea, and if it's in the United States, this firecracker will be twenty dollars gone. "Liang Gesheng has been engaged in criminal investigation since he came down from the army, and he is more knowledgeable about things on the road than the old rivers and lakes. There are also specialty stores selling fireworks in the United States, but there are many restrictions, and the firecrackers loved by the people of the Celestial Empire are prohibited items, and the total market value of smuggled firecrackers from San Francisco into the North American market every year is so high that the dealers who sell medicine are red-eyed, "I think that when your grandfather was rectified, there was nothing at home, and I envied the two red lanterns hanging on the door......

"Stop, if you really want to, just call the old man by yourself, it's a matter of course to call the old man for the New Year, are you afraid that you won't be able to save face?"

"That's my pro-Lao Tzu, what's the shame of not having face, when you kid is angry with me, I go to my heart?" Liang Gesheng already knows the destiny of heaven, and there are still any problems that he can't understand, but some things are naturally unwilling to change, and the tacit understanding between men and men does not need to be linked with words, "You go and call your grandfather to say hello, I won't call, and I don't know what to say, which will only increase the embarrassment." ”

called the old people on both sides, and Liang Baoguang chatted with Yun Jingyi, who was far away in New York, for a while, but he couldn't stay up before he fell asleep.

After waking up in the morning, Liang Baoguang touched under the pillow, and sure enough, he touched a red paper bag, opened it and saw that there was a stack of yellow and clear "Xinshi Rentang" (50,000 won banknotes), which was 1 million won. He couldn't help but be a little funny, obviously he had an eight-million-dollar card in his pocket, but after getting the New Year's money, he was still a little inexplicably happy, peeled off the orange at the head of the bed and ate a piece, he walked out of the bedroom to greet Liang Gesheng, "Dad, I wish you good health, unlimited energy, golden guns, and majesty." ”

"Bastard, say something about this on the first day of the new year?" Liang Gesheng glanced at his son angrily, although he was a little powerless, but he was not to the point where he needed metaphysics to save him, "Aren't you going to take the plane back to New York the day after tomorrow, and accompany me to the company for a meeting today." ”

It is a long-standing tradition to hold a meeting on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the new life group is not called a new student, and Liang Gesheng had such a rule before he became the president. The old people back then basically took a back seat under Liang Gesheng's strength, and now almost all of the people who control the entire force are under the age of fifty, and they already belong to the Young Zhuang faction in this industry.

The headquarters of the New Life Group is located on the road from Gwanghwamun to Sinsa-dong, and it is not only in an excellent location, but also has a good security position, because it is close to the city hall and the Blue House, and is surrounded by the security forces of the Seoul Police Department. It's not black humor or irony, the nascent business is legal, so the employees come to work every day without any pressure, but are proud of their status as employees of a large company.

"Everyone received gifts a year ago, right?" Before the Chinese New Year, Liang Baoguang sent a big red envelope to the number one in the group, and also sent a lot of things such as tobacco, alcohol, dried abalone, and Korean ginseng. He is not only a stern president with brutal methods, but also a kind big brother who can take care of people, and the old president was willing to give up his position to him instead of passing it on to his son, just to see that he was too popular in the organization, and it would not end well if he was replaced by someone else.

"Received both. Zheng Jingren smiled and nodded.

"Yo, today is actually the first time Lao Zheng spoke, could it be that the sun is coming out of the west in the morning?" Jessica follows her father in both appearance and personality, for example, her stuffy gourd attribute is inherited from Zheng Jingren, he used to be able to sit here for two or three hours without opening his mouth, and implement "silence is golden" throughout, and today he was the first to talk to Liang Gesheng, which looked very strange in the eyes of others, and Qian Zhenghong couldn't help but ridicule a few sentences.

"Brother Zhenghong, have you been in a coma for three days and three nights in a good home, why don't you know any news?" Feng Zicheng looked at Zheng Jingren with a smile, he was in charge of the ears and eyes, and the brothers who were listening to the news below were all under his control, so he knew a lot of things, "I'm afraid it won't be long before Brother Jingren's position will have to move forward, right, Baoguang?"

Zheng Jingren is in charge of four boxing rings, ten taekwondo gyms and 15 chain fitness clubs under the name of Xinsheng Group, which specializes in cultivating and delivering "special talents" for the group. In the previous Jonglo era when two knives fought the world, his power may not be underestimated, but now that the freshman group has been whitewashed, those people have become the lowest level of the group, and he, the head of the sect, naturally has no status at all, and he sits in the last few positions every time he has a meeting.

Now the situation is different, Jessica's Valentine's Day is Liang Baoguang's stay in Hannamdong Many people know, Zheng Jingren is likely to be Liang Gesheng's in-laws in the future, and in another ten or twenty years, he will become the chairman of the old Taishan, and then the status will not be at the same level as now.

Zheng Jingren didn't have a special reaction when he heard this, but Jiang Chenghao snorted disdainfully, what is his daughter as good as the daughter of the family surnamed Zheng? Now that it is not known who will kill the deer, these guys will hurriedly express their attitude, and when the dust settles in the future, he will definitely be ashamed of these guys who see the wind and rudder.

"Gossip is almost enough, there are still a bunch of serious things not to talk about, at the beginning of the new year, everyone should not relax, business and study are the same, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Liang Gesheng slapped the table and attracted everyone's attention, "Our business is almost formal, so we need to do a business in terms of image, Baoguang and I have summed it up, and we are ready to win Haoliyou's MegaBox in the first half of this year, do you have any opinions?"

"No opinion, Baoguang is an MBA from Harvard Business School, although I am a rough person, I also know that Harvard Business School is the best in the world, and if I win it, I must be right. "Cheng Hanyin is the oldest person at the table, when Liang Gesheng joined the club, he was already in charge of the two traditional markets, as long as he agreed to the things proposed by Liang Gesheng, there was basically no room for others to veto.

"Brother Sheng, I also agree to win Mega, but I'm afraid everyone knows what our freshmen do for a living, is it necessary to manage the image?" Park Yingguang was a little puzzled, although they also did some business related to the entertainment industry, such as making Fengyue movies or something, it seemed unnecessary to buy an entire theater chain.

Sitting at this table are not only the big guys who like to use knives to cut people, but also many people with real skills, such as Sun Qifeng, who graduated from the Department of Business Administration of Yonsei University in the 80s, and is an expert in business management, "Why is it not necessary, MegaBox's current parent company, Haoliyou Group, is a potato chip seller, why do they want to be a theater chain? If we succeed in winning this theater chain, we can attack and retreat, and we can sell more financial products." ”

At that time, Sun Qifeng could not afford the high tuition fees of private universities because of his poor family background, so he took a break in his junior year to work as a miner in Germany to subsidize the tuition fees. Unfortunately, honest people are always bullied, and while he was working in Germany, his father was injured by the Nanmen faction when he was setting up a stall in the West Village because he was unwilling to pay protection money, and although he earned a sum of money, he had to use it for medical expenses. Later, it was the old president who came forward to seek justice from the old stick of the Southern Sect, not only helped him avenge but also raised enough money to let him finish college, and after graduation, he joined the club as a white fan, and he has not changed his original intention for more than 20 years.

The so-called financial products are just a euphemism, but they are actually usury.

"It was good when we were used at the beginning, but now that we are bigger and stronger, CJ has begun to have other ideas, it is good to grasp a cinema line in hand first, at least in the entertainment industry, there is a lot of right to speak, and the 'cultural national policy' left by Commander Kim Dae is promising, and this is the best time to stake the land. Kang Sung-ho has had a lot of contact with CJ, so he feels the change in attitude towards CJ the most.

"The acquisition has actually been talked about almost, as long as the formalities are completed, it will be returned to our new company, so we might as well keep a low profile during this time. From now on, you can collect evidence of unfair competition between CJ Pictures and CJCGV, and have some fun with them at the end of the year, and arrange for several companies to take them to court. Liang Gesheng has great trust in Jian Xiaosheng's professional level, and he has never lost a lawsuit after graduating from Korea University Law School.

"Yes, President. "Jian Hyo-sung is a little excited, and an opponent like CJ is challenging.
