Chapter 128: Three Wins in Five Battles
The Luo's consortium is mainly engaged in finance, energy and property development, and the controlling person behind the scenes is naturally Luo Zhenyuan, but two years ago he transferred most of his shares to his eldest daughter Luo Qingtong.
Ms. Luo is now the CEO of the Rocks Consortium and the owner of her own Silicon Valley industrial design firm, but she usually works in her office on the 88th floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center in Manhattan, where the Rockwell Consortium is headquartered.
The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the pride of Americans, the pride of New Yorkers, and the towering New York landmark.
When the plane enters the sky over New York from the Pacific Ocean, the first thing that passengers on board will see is the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and the Statue of Liberty on one side.
This is the symphony of the American dream, and the first thing people who come to New York see under the blue sky is the wealth and freedom of their dreams.
The entire 88th floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center is the office of the Luo's Foundation, in addition to the office area of more than 2,000 square meters, there are also 500 square meters, which were renovated by Luo Qingtong into her personal collection showroom and private rest club.
She is busy all day long, and it is often 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening after finishing a day's work, and she rarely rushes back to the Luojia private house in the Hongmen Hall in San Francisco or the Luojia Villa in New Jersey.
So, since she graduated from college and took over the family business, she has lived in this skyscraper for most of the year.
Originally, this magic competition with Ye Xiao was set at Luojia Villa, but now it was at the headquarters of the Luo's Foundation.
Because Luo Qingtong has been too busy in the past two days, she needs to be present at several product launches, as well as many media interviews, shareholders' meetings, etc.
What's more, today is already Friday, and next Tuesday will be a press conference and dinner jointly held with Fannie Mae to develop the Atlantic marine entertainment + commercial and residential landscape project.
The joint investment of the two sides in this project has reached 1.5 billion US dollars, and the capital will be increased one after another in the later stage, Fannie Mae will invest 60%, which is the largest investment project of the Rockwell consortium in many years, and Luo Qingtong attaches great importance to this press conference and dinner.
The roadshow and PR activities were so complicated that the launch and dinner at the Empire State Building would have brought together some of America's top celebrities and entertainment stars, and all aspects of the event had to be well thought out.
It's just that, according to etiquette, she will have to walk the red carpet at the same time with a male guest, which can give her a headache, who will she hold her hand at that time?
Luo Qingtong is also a perfectionist, almost everything, she has to personally check her eyes, no way, this woman with an IQ of 150, always feels that no one can do better than her.
Her marriage contract with Ye Xiao was set three years ago, and the wedding date is less than a year away, so it is understandable that Ye Xiao now asked her to go to Sicily in the Mediterranean Sea to take wedding photos.
Although Luo Qingtong has been avoiding him for the past three years, she knows that she can't escape this fate after all, and for the sake of the family's qi, she will definitely marry into the Ye family.
What's more, Ye Xiao is really not bad, not to mention the background and wealth of the Ye family, if he can be ranked in Huaxia, it is naturally two or three levels higher than the Luo family, which is far overseas and operates alone.
The key is that Ye Xiao's appearance, demeanor, and sincere love for her did make her think sideways: Otherwise, that's it, let's get married, what else are you dodging?
Hide from birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's Day...... Many times, Ye Xiao invited Luo Qingtong politely, but she politely refused, and in the end, she was really embarrassed, so she had to compete with him in the name of magic, and if she lost, she promised to let him accompany her.
And after she was twenty-one years old and took full control of the family business, she realized that there were too many facts for her to do and worry about, and she was so tired!
I want to find a place to lean on, stop for a while, and relax, but this can only be a fool's dream.
After all, she is just a woman, and many times, many things, men do better and more conveniently than a woman.
But one qiē can still only be borne by her alone.
Finally, she thought about it again: That's it, get married, maybe Ye Xiao can help me.
However, a perfectionist, from childhood to adulthood, has never won the second place in reading, competitions, and international Olympiads, has always been the first girl, and has never failed.
This fork disrupted all her ideas and plans, including the schedule of preparing for marriage, scattered, and broken!
No matter what happens, even if the sky falls, in her opinion, as long as she is fine, as long as she can still hold on, as long as she can only control it, as long as she is not chaotic, then she can still be reversed, she is not over, and she can come again.
But now, the eldest lady of the Luo family herself is in chaos first, defeated first, and the six gods in chaos have no owner, and they are all defeated, because she has put herself in.
It's all that little stick, I hate you to death!
Looking at Ye Xiao and his party in the large conference room, especially the extremely ugly Jianghu Warlock surnamed Tan, Luo Qingtong's heart was irritable and inexplicable, and he looked at the young warlock sitting beside him with a frustrated face.
This Ah Kun, wasn't he quite powerful at playing this set before, why is it so bad today!
Little god stick, why haven't you come yet...... If you don't help me win today, I'm really going to take wedding photos with Ye Xiao, you can do it! Makes you feel good! Makes you die of heart! Who told you to harm me......
"Ahh
Li Linggang and Rui Qier stepped into an elevator in the North Tower of the World Trade Center, and they sneezed and shook their heads, feeling strange in their hearts.
It's all three sneezes! Is someone cursing me?
In this world, the people who can curse me probably haven't been born yet, oh, except for those cultivators who have long since disappeared.
Of course, Qingtong can also curse me, but she shouldn't have practiced the "Wife Control Strict Mantra", right...... Qingtong, the husband is here!
Whoever dares to drag you to take wedding photos, I will give him a bad omen on his forehead!
********************
"Qingtong, it's almost ten o'clock, why hasn't the person you looked for come yet?"
In the luxurious and spacious circular conference room, among the three people sitting opposite Luo Qingtong, sitting on the far right was a young Chinese man of twenty-three or four, who looked at his watch, frowned and said.
This young man can be described as having a face like a crown of jade, eyebrows like paint, and eyes like a morning star.
This person is naturally the eldest young master of the Ye family and Luo Qingtong's fiancé - Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao sat on the right hand side of a Chinese man in his forties, and his appearance was amazing:
The two eyes are one big and one small, the two nostrils are turned upward, it really looks like the second senior brother is reincarnated, a mouthful of smoky buckteeth is impressive, and the key is that there is also a thumb-sized pig liver color sarcoma born in the left eye socket.
It doesn't matter if you're sorry for the audience, but people have real skills, and they have won three out of five, and this charlatan has won two battles.
It was a full house, and only Luo Qingtong really didn't want to look at him, she was afraid that she would have nightmares at night.
The other person on Ye Xiao's side was a boy who looked two years younger than him, his hair was shiny, and his pair of tricks were like mouse eyes, and he was spinning around when he looked at people.
I don't know if he is not in good health, or his parents have not taught him to sit in a sitting position, half-lying on the seat, holding his hands on his head, crossing Erlang's legs, one leg is still shaking the ring-shaped table, but a pair of mouse eyes are staring at Luo Qingtong in a circle, and there is a flash of light in his eyes.
Luo Qingtong was extremely displeased by the boy's obscene gaze, and wanted to have a seizure several times but held back.
If she had changed her mind and planned to marry Ye Xiao before, she would definitely be mad on the spot: Why did you bring in such a frivolous and impudent person...... Then you must let Ye Xiao expel him.
But now, she doesn't seem to have to.
If that little stick comes, and he can't even see that guy's bad eyes, and doesn't give him some color, then the little stick is really too ...... Qualified!
Luo Qingtong also looked at her watch, she was about to listen to the two young people speak about their business plans, but now, she temporarily put down her work and competed with Ye Xiao on this technique.
The two young men were also in this conference room at this time, sitting on Luo Qingtong's side, they were two white college students with very inconspicuous appearances, but at a glance, they knew that they were academic tyrants.
A few days ago, Luo Qingtong's college tutor jumped from Columbia University to teach at Stanford University, and the tutor introduced her to two computer science majors at Stanford University.
These two college students currently have good ideas and ideas, and they urgently need a sum of money to start a business, and her mentor first thought of his student, Luo Qingtong, who controls hundreds of millions of investment funds.
Today, the two students from Stanford University happened to come to find Luo Qingtong, and it happened that Ye Xiao arrived, so she had to make the two students wait, but she was embarrassed to leave the two of them aside, so she also let them sit in and watch.
This kind of competition has happened between her and Ye Xiao several times, and it is a means for her to shirk Ye Xiao.
Because both of them are from Fangshu families, this kind of competition is also normal, and Ye Xiao is not surprised, anyway, no matter how you shirk it, you are my person after all.
What's more, if Miss Luo really agrees to her invitation every time, a woman who is too easy to get her hands on, after a long time, this will really make the eldest son of the Ye family feel bored.
What I want is her tune, and what I like is her unruly, lukewarm, and outstanding Style!
"He should be coming soon." Luo Qingtong glanced outside the door, and said in his heart, this little magic stick should not be at home, is Richie still running all over New York looking for him?
As she spoke, she looked at Ah Kun, who was sitting beside her, and sighed softly.
Last time, Ye Xiao invited herself to participate in the Columbia University Alumni Association, but she didn't have time, and secondly, she really didn't want to hold his hand and appear in front of a group of old classmates.
Ah Kun lived up to her expectations and helped her win that battle.
Another time, Ye Xiao's birthday, asked her to go, and she originally agreed to go, but she didn't expect that Ye Xiao took his uncles, uncles, aunts, aunts, aunts, aunts, and aunts from his hometown in China to the United States, so she was unwilling.
Competition, if you lose, go.
It was Ah Kun who came out again and helped her win.
Luo Qingtong knows this Ah Kun's ability, and also knows that he has some unbearable past, and he also takes care of him, he has a reward in the eight halls outside the Hongmen, but Luo Qingtong also gives him an extremely generous red envelope every month.
Ah Kun is Yan Lao's apprentice, usually taciturn, simple personality, is a little man arranged by Daddy in Hongmen, but he is Daddy's eyeliner, and he is also loyal to the Luo family.
In the past few years, he has also been helping himself run errands, for example, in the past year or two, he has been searching for overseas Chinese warlocks everywhere for himself, especially Luban Warlocks.
However, this time, in the face of this ugly eight-monster warlock surnamed Tan that Ye Xiao found out of nowhere, how could Ah Kun lose! My second uncle couldn't do much during the day, so I had to call the little god stick......
However, although I also want to see him and give him a call, it is really embarrassing...... What should I say when I see him?
"I said, Miss Luo, what do you want? If you have no choice, hurry up and take pictures with our eldest young master! "The strange warlock is impatient,
"It's already a sure thing, Lang is a concubine, made in heaven, what else is there to twist? The eldest young master's car is parked downstairs, but he has been waiting for you for several days! Okay, don't put it off, whoever you look for will die an ugly death! ”
"No matter how ugly it is, it's better than you! Besides, maybe you have been dead for a hundred years, and I am still alive and well! ”
At the door, a crisp Chinese teenager's voice came, and everyone followed the voice, only to see a sunny young man striding in, sweating, obviously walking in a hurry, and Miss Luo's personal female bodyguard was following him.
This little magic stick, every time he appears, can he use such a temperamental, relying on the old and selling the old......
I saw this person again, who had disrupted his plans and thoughts, appeared in the course of his life, and in addition to his parents and sister, he already had an intimate relationship with him...... The enemy!
Miss Luo couldn't help but tremble, and could only hide her embarrassment, shame and nervousness, as well as a wisp of joy hidden in her heart under the guise of "disrespecting the elderly".
