Chapter 105: Strike Strong
The night was like water, and the stars shimmered with a little light, like a colorful mercury flame.
Meng Qingdong sat on a leather sofa in the lobby on the first floor, the off-white hue contrasted sharply with his black suit, making him look like a little disgusting stain in the white world. Before, his vigilance was too weak, and he didn't pay attention to Lucie's return to China at all. There is no doubt that he loves his eldest daughter deep down, and Lu Xifei lost his mother at a young age, so Meng Qingdong pities her very much, and wants to love her well and compensate her, but this must be based on the fact that her existence will not threaten his position.
When Qiao Yixia came to the house for dinner before, he felt the extraordinary bearing and powerful aura of this woman, but there were too many things in the company during that time, and he did not carefully investigate her net worth background, and he was really surprised to see her at the banquet today. Unexpectedly, she turned out to be Qiao's daughter, the only pearl in the palm of Old Man Qiao. Meng Qingdong has dominated the shopping mall for many years, the only thing he is slightly afraid of is Qiao's, there was a merger and acquisition war back then, Meng Qingdong was bound to win, who would have expected that the old man Qiao would make a trick behind his back and ruthlessly beat him to an army, taking advantage of his rashness to kill him without leaving a piece of armor, with a loss of nearly 10 million. This incident is unforgettable for Meng Qingdong.
The tiger father has no dog girl, that old man Qiao is so powerful, and his daughter will naturally not be a soft bone. Today, seeing his daughter dancing with Qiao Yixia at the banquet, showing off the limelight, Meng Qingdong was very uncomfortable while accepting the praise of his daughter from powerful and celebrities. He hated the feeling that this kind of thing was out of his control, and he hated it very much.
"Qingdong, Liuchen finally changed his mind and was willing to join the company, did you really let him be a small staff member in the planning department?" Du Ling held a tea tray in her hand, and the delicate ceramic cup was filled with the fresh fragrance of tea.
"Or else? I have just announced Liuchen's identity, whether the outside world can accept it is still a question, I don't let him be a clerk, is it possible to promote him to be a manager from the beginning? Meng Qingdong pressed his temples irritably.
"I just feel like we owe this kid too much."
Meng Qingdong was noncommittal: "Anyway, this qiē will be his in the future, so why should you be in a hurry." Don't forget, there's also a little wolf staring at us silently. ”
Of course, Du Ling knew the meaning of Meng Qingdong's words: "Qingdong, your daughter is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you must be careful." ”
Meng Qingdong patted the sofa and said angrily: "What do you mean, I, Meng Qingdong, have never seen any strong winds and waves, will I still lose in the hands of a little girl in her twenties?" Seeing that Du Ling was a little frightened, he slowed down his tone and said, "Besides, no matter what, Xifei is my daughter after all." I owe her a damn and I can only pay her back. I've promised that whether she joins the company or not, your status with Qianqian will not be affected, so aren't you satisfied? ”
After Meng Qingdong went upstairs, Du Ling said disdainfully: "It's obvious that I can't tolerate my daughter, and you have to blame me for it." ”
Xu was too tired, and the car was warm, and Lu Xifei had already fallen asleep when he got home. Qiao Yixia took off the thin coat on her body and gently covered her body. The street lamp outside the car window passed through the window, casting a soft light on the side of her face, making her look like the young and elegant aristocratic lady of the Renaissance paintings. How much disdain there is on this face, how much is as cold as ice, how much in this heart can not be let go.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Lucie tremble violently,
Luci shook his head: "It's okay. ”
Qiao Yixia took Lu Xifei's hand, and the two of them left the garage and walked to the apartment, suddenly, Lu Xifei froze her footsteps, and Qiao Yixia felt a piercing cold through Lu Xifei's palm to her bones.
Lucy turned her head, shuddered, and took two steps back, Qiao Yixia didn't know what happened to her, only to see that her lips were white and her hands were shaking badly. But Qiao Yixia didn't ask anything, because she knew that even if she asked, Lu Xifei wouldn't tell her anything.
"Maybe it's because I drank too much tonight and got a little dizzy."
Lu Xifei took Qiao Yixia's hand again, and used a not pretty smile to ease the atmosphere at this time. Today is the day when the two of them propose to each other, and she doesn't want to let a qiē unclean thing disturb their good time, even if it won't be too long, but at least in this short time, there is only her and her trace. Lucy held her hand tightly, telling herself not to tremble, not to care about the lingering soul behind her, not to pay attention to the shadows floating in front of her.
This is her catastrophe, and she can't hide from it.
The miserable white moonlight hit Helan Qiubai's face, she squinted her eyes slightly, held the delicate goblet in her hand, and drank the wine in the cup. Is today's dinner still smooth, she doesn't know. But she thought that Lucy must have been out of the limelight. When she first saw Luci, she knew that this girl was a natural focus, even if she was taciturn and low-key and introverted, but her natural light was so strong that people couldn't take their eyes off it, and from birth, she was destined to be the queen who was looked up to.
She stood in Lu Shuye's room, and she looked so lonely in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, as if she was the only one left in the world, and this cruel and ruthless city.
She knew very well in her heart that Lu Xifei had come prepared for entering the company this time, she was like a little beast that had been hollowed out, returning with full fighting spirit after healing, planning a good show of revenge.
She originally planned to help her, to help her regain this qiē that should have belonged to the Lu family, which could be regarded as a matter of Lu Shuye's heart.
But now she had changed her mind, or rather, she had changed her mind the moment Qiao Yixia appeared. Originally, she felt that no matter how pathetic she was, at least there was Lucy Fei with her, and even if she could never be happy in this life, there would still be Luci Fei who would go to hell with her. But now, it seems that everything has become different, and Luci, who has lost his brother, has found his home, but he is forever living in a dark hell and does not see the light. It's really unfair, so unfair.
She suddenly felt like a beggar dressed in gold and silver. And now, she didn't want to beg anymore.
Life goes by in no hurry, Lucy still has nightmares occasionally, and even sees mixed shadows at a higher and higher frequency, and it lasts longer and longer, but without the trouble of the case, she can concentrate on a recent acquisition of Shijing, a medium-sized electronics company in the south is on the verge of bankruptcy, Charles and Luci decided to buy the company after discussion, but the owner of the company made a staggering request, he can sell the company at a low price, but must invest in Shijing with technology shares. As soon as this remark came out, many large companies retreated, and only two companies remained, one was Shijing, and the other was Meng.
Although the household appliance subsidiary is on the verge of bankruptcy, most of the reason is due to poor management, and a large part of the reason why Lu Xifei wants to buy it is also because of the potential value of this company, so it is not too much for the boss to propose to invest in technology as a shareholder.
"Wouldn't the price be too low?" Charles asked worriedly. No matter what Zhongyuan says, it has been in full swing, and it may be very risky to want to merge and acquire at a price of only 50 million.
"The price is certainly low. But I didn't say that we only need to open a price. According to my father's character, he will definitely secretly inquire about the price we offer, as long as we release false news first, so that he thinks that Shijing will buy Zhongyuan at a sky-high price, he will definitely retreat. ”
"However, with Mr. Meng's wisdom, I'm afraid he won't be fooled."
"So, we need to find someone who is enough to convince him." Charles raised his eyebrows and asked, and Lucy Fei continued, "If I were him, the first thing I would think of would naturally not be the person of Shijing, nor would it be Boss Su himself, if it was said by Boss Su himself, it would violate the principle of integrity and lose our trust." However, if you start with the people closest to Boss Su, isn't it much easier? ”
"You mean, we bought Boss Su's assistant?"
"Yes, Zhongyuan is finished, as the assistant to the chairman, he is now in a hurry to find a way out, at this time he is like a hungry wolf, waiting for someone to reward him with a bite to eat." Lucy Blossom Road.
Charles nodded: "Your idea is very good, but how can you be sure that Mr. Meng will give up directly, instead of raising the price, or give it a go?" ”
Lu Xi's eyes raised slightly, and Meng Qingdong's face appeared in front of him, others may not know her, but she knows his thoughts clearly.
"Meng Qingdong loves power like his life, he agrees that Boss Su takes a stake in technology does not mean that he doesn't mind, he is a person who values power above a qiē, the reason why he reluctantly agrees to this condition is just that he values the point of 'selling at a low price', if his competitors offer sky-high prices, he can only offer a higher price if he wants to succeed, otherwise he has no advantage of winning, after all, both in terms of scale and reputation, the world is far more than Meng's. As for what you said about giving it a go, it is still possible to change to someone else, my father will never do it, he has strong self-esteem and loves face to the extreme, if he fails after joining the competition, it will not only hurt his vanity, on the other hand, the journalist will not give up such a fresh topic, which will hurt Meng's reputation. If he automatically withdraws before the offer, then he can completely use Zhongyuan's internal vulnerabilities as an excuse to get out of the whole body, the best of both worlds. ”
