Chapter 104: The Past
Du had expected a turbulent share price, but the 20% drop was completely beyond his expectations. Because of this impact, Du Zeming could no longer stay at home for breakfast, and he had to cancel his vacation when he originally planned to rest today.
Du Zeming thought that once the news of the stock decline spread, the overall evaluation and valuation of Hongming Group would be greatly adversely affected, and even the company would be panicked. He had to leave for the company immediately, as the president of the company, he was responsible for this incident, not to mention that it was necessary for him to sit in the company to stabilize people's hearts.
As soon as he changed into a suit jacket and came out of the room, Du Zeming heard his son reading English inside when he passed by Du Lin's room. Du Zeming suddenly remembered that he had promised Du Lin today that he would take him to the zoo in the afternoon when he finished his English studies. Du Zeming felt very guilty in his heart, he must stay in the company until the evening, and now the company may be in a mess, and he must play the role of a leader and lead the company to do all the countermeasures.
Speaking of which, Du Zeming has not accompanied his son Du Lin for a long time, and every time the father and son get along with each other, it is very limited, either Du Zeming goes out on a business trip, or when he comes home after working overtime in the company, Du Lin has fallen asleep.
In this way, father and son rarely have the opportunity to stay together without worrying about time, and Du Zeming felt that his son had become more and more estranged from him. Du Lin is a simple-minded, but very stubborn child. He always believed what Du Zeming said to him about Mommy coming back soon, and he obediently waited for Mommy to come home.
But Du Lin's little heart is always surrounded by disappointment again and again. He knew that Daddy might have lied to him, because it had been a long, long time, and Mommy still hadn't come home. As a result, Du Lin became more and more silent, and his smile gradually became less and less on his face, so that he began to become unfamiliar with Du Zeming. He seemed to have a premonition that maybe Dad didn't love him as much as Mommy did, maybe they didn't want him anymore.
Du Zeming was not unaware of the changes in his son Du Lin during this time, but he had no way to do anything, and all his time was spent on the company's affairs. Du Zeming drove to the company quickly, and from the moment he stepped into the company's door, he felt the eyes of the company's employees who were afraid to avoid him. For these people, in this situation, it is better not to provoke Du Zeming, otherwise it will definitely attract a reprimand.
Du Zeming knew that the company needed something to divert attention and boost morale. But for a while, he didn't think of any good name to organize a grand celebration or party. He thought as he walked into his lavish office.
At this time, Xiao Huang in the secretary's office knocked on the door a few times with trembling at the door. Du Zeming motioned for her to come in, and Xiao Huang walked to the desk in a restrained manner.
Du ...... Mr. Du and Assistant Zhao have not come to the company for several days. Xiao Huang said.
Assistant Zhao is Du Zeming's assistant Zhao Ran, this kid didn't come to work in the company before Du Zeming went to Xiushan, Du Zeming knew very well that the video leak on his office computer before must have something to do with him. Now that he may be aware of the East Window incident, Zhao Ran is a thief and does not dare to come to work in Hongming Group again, which Du Zeming has also expected. At the beginning, his goal of taking the initiative to startle the snake had been achieved, and he would definitely make Zhao Ran pay the price sooner or later.
Du Zeming hated someone betraying him the most, and Zhao Ran was the one who completely disappointed him. But Du Zeming knows very well that he can't talk about what Zhao Ran has done publicly, if he does that, it will also damage his image, he can't let others feel that he can't even control his subordinates, not to mention that he has installed a camera on his computer to monitor the situation at home, and he can't let others know this, because it is impossible for Du Zeming, who is dignified and upright, to do this kind of thing, which is also what Du Zeming needs to maintain vigorously, his image in front of the public.
Du Zeming nodded and said gently: "Assistant Zhao has asked me for leave, you don't need to make a fuss, he has encountered some things at home, and he may leave the company in a few days, you have to be prepared to find a candidate for the job handover." ”
Du Zeming's intention is to dilute the impact of Zhao Ran's matter, from Zhao Ran's leave in the company to his resignation and leaving the company, Du Zeming chose to use the fastest and most insipid way to properly handle this matter.
Xiao Huang nodded, she was secretly glad in her heart that Du Zeming was not angry at herself. Everyone knows that today is definitely a very depressed day for Du Zeming, and no one wants to touch this mold. But fortunately, Du Zeming looked tired today, but he didn't mean to embarrass them, which made everyone secretly relieved.
Du Ze was obviously physically and mentally exhausted, and he was still a little hungover, and he only cared about the company's next plans for now. Due to the emergence of Whitby Global Group, he had to be more cautious in dealing with all Du Hongming's actions against himself and the Du family. Regarding the Whitby Global Group, Du Zeming has done a detailed investigation, and the financial strength and influence of this multinational company in the financial world are obvious to all. Now in Xiushan, Whitby Global Group and Hongming Group are the two largest developers, and the two will definitely fight fiercely for Xiushan's resources.
Du Zeming carefully flipped through the relevant information, frankly speaking, he has not taken an opponent so seriously for a long time, this opponent is the most special one, he is his brother Du Hongming.
Du Zeming's hostility towards his brother Du Hongming almost stems from his admiration for Du Hongming. Although for today's Du Zeming, he will never admit this. Since the youngest brother, Du Hongming is the most optimistic child of his father Du Liangde, and he is also the eldest son of the Du family. Du Hongming has excellent grades and outstanding ability since he was a child, and he has earned enough face for Du Liangde outside early, and people say that Du Hongming will be the next business wizard and will definitely be the successor of the Du family.
At that time, Du Hongming was a collection of thousands of favors, and he had already established his important position in the upper social circle. People almost acquiesced to the fact that Du Hongming would succeed the president of Hongming Group, and Du Zeming at that time was like a small ant compared to Du Hongming, forgotten in a cold corner.
Although Du Zeming's mother Li Shujun has outstanding ability and a glamorous appearance of a female entrepreneur in the business world, Li Shujun has never been able to get rid of the fact that she is a junior in the Du family. Because of his identity as a junior, Li Shujun was scolded by others and snubbed by Du Liangde three times, and Du Zeming has seen such a situation since he was a child. Li Shujun once told Du Zeming every silent and cold night that he must become strong enough and good enough, and only when he becomes the strongest person can he get rid of the fate of being at the mercy of others.
Du Zeming understood Li Shujun's words, and worked hard step by step towards the goal of becoming stronger. He knew that he could become very good, and even surpass his brother Du Hongming, and he worked hard for the future of himself and his mother.
However, until one day, Du Hongming slammed the door from Du Liangde's study. Du Zeming learned that his brother Du Hongming gave up his qualification to inherit the Du family, and even severed his relationship with his father Du Liangde, in order to be with a girl. Du Hongming's decision invisibly stimulated Du Zeming, because Du Zeming found that all the efforts he had been working and everything he had given up for this was no longer meaningful.
Because he was working so hard to get something, Du Hongming easily chose to give up. For Du Hongming, the praise of the world, the identity of a wealthy family, and the status of the heir of the Du family are far less important than a girl he loves. What a ridiculous decision, as if he was laughing at me, Du Zeming. The opportunity and glory I cherish so much are worthless in your eyes, Du Hongming, are you so arrogant?
After that, the Du family really became the home of Du Zeming and his mother Li Shujun. Du Hongming's mother was forced away by Li Shujun, and then Du Hongming also took the initiative to give up everything in the Du family and go abroad. It seems that Du Zeming's mother and son are the ultimate winners. But is that really the case?
Obviously, in Du Zeming's eyes, without money, power and status, then you are nothing. What happened to his brother Du Hongming was seen by Du Zeming one by one, when he had no money to treat the pain of his loved ones, what was the value of that arrogance? originally thought that he could leave the Du family and fly away and live the life he wanted abroad, but in the end, he didn't want to fly back to China, so he came to ask his father Du Liangde to help him in a low voice.
Du Zeming watched the arrogant Du Hongming kneel heavily to his father Du Liangde, and at that moment Du Zeming realized that whether it was personal true feelings or so-called love, these illusory things were not worth mentioning at all, and they were far less practical than the money and power in his hands.
You, Du Hongming, are a naïve and disgusting man. Du Zeming would never follow Du Hongming's old path, so he followed Du Liangde's instructions all the way and slowly became the current president of Hongming Group. This is Du Zeming's own choice along the way, and it is also his only choice, there is to work and live according to his parents' ideas, only then can it be regarded as a successful life, shuttling back and forth between money and power games, and being able to play with ease, so that Du Zeming has the value of life.
Therefore, whether it is Whitby Global Group or his brother Du Hongming, Du Zeming will defeat them one by one.
