Bai Na did not return to the city, but walked into the family area of the Hongqi Iron and Steel Factory, where the dormitory buildings from the 80s looked particularly old under the dim street lamps, reminding her of her childhood.

She knocked on the door of a house casually, and it was an old lady who opened the door, and asked suspiciously, "Girl, who are you looking for?" ”

Bai Na showed her press card: "Auntie, I am a reporter from Huaijiang Daily, and I want to interview you." ”

"The old man is not at home, I am illiterate, you can come back another day." The old lady was in a hurry to close the door, and suddenly Bai Na saw Wei Shumin's portrait hanging in the house, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking that this family must be very interesting to dig, she hurriedly said: "Auntie, I just want to talk to you about Mr. Wei." ”

At the mention of Mr. Wei, the old lady's tone suddenly softened: "Where did you just say that you were the reporter?" ”

"Huaijiang Daily, the provincial newspaper of our Jiangdong Province, was sent by the leader to find out about the deeds of Mr. Wei." Bai Na said sincerely.

Huaijiang Daily...... That's the party newspaper, kid, hurry in, the provincial leaders know about our factory? The old lady suddenly became enthusiastic, and invited Bai Na into the house, pouring tea and giving up her seat, Bai Na swept the furnishings in the house, the old 21-inch TV set was placed on the chest of drawers, and there were clutter everywhere, and the door of one bedroom was still pasted with faded double happiness, it seemed that the family was at least two generations in the same house.

In the center of the narrow living room there was a board with wrapped dumplings and a bowl of dumpling filling, and the old lady brought out a bowl of hot dumplings and said, "My daughter hasn't eaten yet, eat it while it's hot." ”

Bai Na's personality is already very lively and hearty, so she naturally doesn't lie when she encounters this situation, and said with a smile: "Then I'm welcome." He took the rice bowl and ate a dumpling, and praised: "The meat filling is so fragrant." ”

The old lady smiled kindly: "If it's delicious, eat more." ”

Of course, Bai Na is not a foodie, she ate a few casually and began to ask: "Auntie, why do you have a photo of Mr. Wei at home?" ”

The old lady's eyes immediately turned red, and she sighed and said, "Shumin, this child is bitter, she has been pulling a child alone for so many years, and her life is a bit rushed, and she is in such a hurry to leave...... Alas, we can eat dumplings, that's Shumin's life, not to mention my family hanging her photo, thousands of families in the whole factory, tens of thousands of people, who doesn't treat Shumin as a life-saving benefactor. ”

Bai Na stopped her chopsticks and secretly turned on the voice recorder.

The old lady is very talkative, starting from when Wei Shumin was young, when it comes to the first time when the Xuanwu Group annexed the iron ore and coking plant of the Hongqi Factory, the old man came back, and it was the old worker who delivered dumplings in front of Wei Zongling.

"What is this?" The old man wondered.

"The reporter of the provincial newspaper came to interview Shumin's deeds." The old lady introduced.

The old worker was in awe, and shook hands with Bai Na again and again: "Thank you for the care of the provincial leaders, Mr. Wei's deeds must be well publicized, she is a good cadre of our factory and an outstanding member of our party." ”

After some conversation, Bai Na learned that this old worker was the first generation of Hongqi Iron and Steel Man, who used to be Wei Shumin's master in the eighties, and now he has long since retired, and there is a son at home, who is in his Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and also works in the Hongqi Factory, and only got married last year, but some time ago he was arrested by the public security because of a fight with the security guards of the Xuanwu Group, and he is still in detention in the detention center, and his daughter-in-law has also returned to her mother's home, and now only the old two are left in the family.

"Shumin, this child is strong, she jumped this time, sacrificed herself, saved the whole factory, if Xuanwu Group continues to reorganize and relocate, it is estimated that it should be demolished to the family area now." The old worker wiped a handful of tears and said.

Bai Na also felt a little blocked in her throat.

Back in the guest house, Bai Na took out her laptop and voice recorder, and began to sort out the materials, she was almost crying while sorting out, and began to write the manuscript after finishing it, but no matter how she wrote, she was not satisfied, she was known as a talented woman in the university, and at this moment she felt that her pen power was so pale, and she could not express one-tenth of the great glory of Mr. Wei.

……

Just when Bai Na was working hard for the manuscript, the building of the Jiangbei branch of Xuanwu Group was lit up all night, and high-end cars were parked downstairs, and all the senior leaders were still having heated discussions in the conference room.

In recent years, the group has developed rapidly and has performed well in various fields, but it also presents the problem of being too wide and tight in funds, and because of Chen Runing's super personal ability, there is no strong figure who can take over such a big stall after he dies.

Xuanwu Group has a lot of industries in Jiangbei, of which the largest investment is the Nantai Industrial Park project, and then there is the economic housing and commercial housing community project in the east of the city, in addition to some coal mines, iron mines, coking plants and other industries, it can be said that it has accounted for more than half of the group's business volume, due to the rapid expansion, there are many people in the group like Nie Wanlong, Yin Zhijian who are not willing to be lonely in the workplace, Xuanwu Group is like a court after the death of an emperor, ambitious civil ministers and military generals have appeared on the stage, striving for the maximization of their own interests.

Mai Kangmei is Chen Runing's wife, Chen Xuanwu's mother, and the sister of Governor Mai, it stands to reason that she should come forward to take over the company at this time, but this woman who was born in a cadre family has been pampered since she was a child, and after marriage, everything is handed over to her husband to manage.

Seeing a group of vice presidents and directors arguing in front of her, Mai Kangmei only felt a buzzing in her head, she slapped the table suddenly, and shouted, "Shut up for me!" ”

Suddenly there was silence, after all, the Xuanwu Group is a family industry, and now in addition to the crown prince Chen Xuanwu, the biggest one is this lady.

"I don't care what you are arguing about, but the biggest problem now is how to do a good job of Lao Chen's funeral, the rule of Lao Chen's hometown is that people who die in a foreign land should hold a funeral in the local area, you can see how to arrange it."

Everyone looked at each other, but soon they all saw an opportunity from it, and if they could take this opportunity to show themselves in front of their wife, it would be of great benefit to their position in the group.

Nie Wanlong was the first to say: "Mr. Chen passed away suddenly, I lost the best brother in the world, I implore my sister-in-law to let me preside over Mr. Chen's funeral." ”

Others also said that they would do their best to make the funeral a good one, Mai Kangmei listened to their loyalty, nodded and said: "Thank you, I think it is better to let Xiao Mu handle the specific matters, Lao Chen trusted him the most during his lifetime, and always treated him as a son." ”

Mu Lianheng, who had been sitting in the corner for a long time and had not spoken, stood up, and in just two days, he was already haggard and unpresentable, with a stubble beard and an untidy tie.

"Auntie, I will definitely do a good job of Mr. Chen's funeral." Mu Lianheng bowed deeply to Mai Kangmei and sat back down.

"Then that's it, Xuanwu will come back tomorrow, and you can discuss it."

……

The next morning, Chen Xuanwu's special plane landed at Jiangbei Airport, Mu Lianheng led the staff to pick up the plane, Chen Xuanwu came down from the gangway, Mu Lianheng went up and cried bitterly: "Xuanwu, I didn't take care of Mr. Chen." ”

When Chen Runing had an accident, Chen Xuanwu was still traveling in Europe, and after getting the news, he rushed back overnight, but heavy snow fell in Europe and Asia, and the airport was closed, so it was still two days late.

Chen Xuanwu stepped forward and hugged Mu Lianheng, biting his lip tightly, and a few words burst out from between his teeth: "Find out the murderer, and break the corpse into ten thousand pieces!" ”

Mu Lianheng's pupils contracted inadvertently, and he said sadly: "Both black and white are investigating this matter, I believe that it will soon come to light, Xuanwu, and now the final thing is to let Mr. Chen settle down." ”

"I know, I'd better leave this matter to you, and get a plan for me later." Chen Xuanwu patted Mu Lianheng's shoulder, and someone next to him stepped forward and draped a long black windbreaker on Chen Xuanwu's shoulder, and hugged him and left.

The mighty convoy left the airport and drove towards the city, along the way Mu Lianheng introduced the situation within the group to Chen Xuanwu, they were college classmates, had a good relationship, and knew everything, when Chen Xuanwu heard about the chaos of the board of directors after his father's death, he said angrily: "These old immortals, they really take themselves seriously, in the end, they are not for my Chen family." ”

Mu Lianheng smiled reluctantly, Chen Xuanwu seemed to realize something, and said: "You are different, you are my brother, I can't believe these guys, now only you can rely on it." ”

"Xuanwu, Mr. Chen treats me like a father and son, you treat me like a brother, my life belongs to the Chen family, what do you say, I listen to you."

"In this way, after the funeral is completed, you draw up a list, open all the disobedient ones that are not pleasing to the eye, and then I will appoint you as the general manager, and our brothers will work together to expand the scale of the group tenfold, so that Dad's spirit in the sky can also rest in peace, okay?"

"Brothers of one heart!" Mu Lianheng stretched out a hand.

"Its profits are broken!" Chen Xuanwu also stretched out his hand, and two young palms struck in the air.

Back at the branch building, Chen Xuanwu walked to the door surrounded by bodyguards and assistant secretaries, and the staff he met along the way were all wearing black suits with white flowers on their chests. ”

Chen Xuanwu didn't look at them, strode into the lobby, got on the elevator, and came to his father's office on the top floor, Mai Kangmei was cleaning up Chen Runing's relics here, the mother and son cried, Mu Lianheng also shed a lot of tears next to him, after crying, Chen Xuanwu said: "Mom, why don't you go back to the provincial capital for a funeral?" ”

Mai Kangmei said: "You kid, you are still not sensible, at this juncture, you can't make trouble for your uncle, besides, your father was killed by Jiangbei Yankees, I just want to hold a funeral here, let them see the strength of our family, and also see the reaction of Jiangbei officialdom, after all, the focus of the group has shifted here." ”
