In the south of the Yangtze River in May, the flowers are blooming, competing for beauty, and it is a grand scene of the land of fish and rice.

Hangzhou City, known as "heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below"

It is also a prosperous scene.

Dawn International Building is located on the edge of the West Lake, the most famous place in Hangzhou.

Compared to the traffic on the street outside, the top floor of the building is indeed gloomy.

Zhang Chen, the founder of Dawn International, can be said to be self-made, his parents died one after another when he was a child, and he only left him an ancestral iron plate before his death, which he has never left on his chest since then.

It may be that the children of the poor are in charge of the house early, Zhang Chen has been very sensible since the death of his parents, and his academic performance has always been among the best, and then he was admitted to the highest university in China - Qingxia University in one fell swoop, and after graduation he started a business with several grassroots classmates.

"Just have a fish with them. ”

It was Li Qiang, one of the elders of Dawn and the most impulsive of the few.

"No, then our hard work in the past ten years will not turn into flowing water. ”

Liu Yun said hatefully.

"That's better than making a wedding dress for someone else. ”

Li Qiang was very unwilling, but he also fell silent.

There are two other people in the room who have not spoken, one is Wang Weiming, who is relatively silent and does not like to talk, and the other is Zhang Chen, who is the eldest brother of several people and is also the helmsman.

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Chen spoke: "Let's take a look at tomorrow's negotiation first, see if we can give up some of our interests to end this matter, if the other party still refuses to give up, then even if it is death, let them shed their skin." ”

Hearing this, Wang Weiming's lips moved, but after all, he didn't say anything, and it didn't take long for everyone to leave one after another with a dull face.

It turned out that some time ago, because Dawn International had no intention of settling a grudge with the local head snake and Shenglong Group, which is also the leading enterprise in China, on a piece of land project, who knew that the other party was so eager to retaliate, it didn't take long for it to start a comprehensive suppression of Dawn International, and threatened to control Dawn International, otherwise it would make Dawn International bankrupt, causing Dawn International's stock to plummet in the stock market, and its total assets shrank several times in an instant.

But the Shenglong Group is also afraid of pushing the other party too tightly and giving them a dying counterattack, although it will not hurt their muscles and bones, but they will definitely have to be uncomfortable, so there will be tomorrow's negotiations.

Early the next morning, it was still the top floor of Dawn International, and on one side of the negotiation table sat a few people from yesterday, and on the other side were two men and one woman, with a domineering face.

"Mr. Zhang, our Shenglong Group will acquire 51% of your shares at half of the current market price, which is the final bottom line. ”

The man led by the other party said.

"No way. ”

Li Qiang shouted, and almost slapped the table and scolded his mother.

"Mr. Sheng, you should know that Dawn International is the hard work of our brothers, and it embodies our countless efforts, and we will not betray him. ”

Zhang Chen stopped Li Qiang and said loudly.

"Mr. Zhang, please don't make a mistake. ”

Mr. Sheng said sharply.

"Mr. Sheng, from the establishment of Dawn International to today, just like our children, we will not sell our children, except for this condition, any other conditions, Mr. Sheng mentioned, as long as we can do it, we will not shirk, I hope Mr. Sheng can understand. ”

Zhang Chen is still trying his best to make amends.

"Toast without eating and eating and drinking. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Long and the others threw the door away.

With the departure of several people, followed by the relentless suppression of Shenglong Group, which led to a panic within Dawn International, believing that Dawn International would not last long and would go bankrupt, and many people in the company who had a way to do so jumped ship at this time.

At the same time, as time passed, the company's stock fell and fell on the stock market, and the company once faced bankruptcy, which made the panic within the company more and more intensified.

At this moment, there are finally people who can't bear it.

is still the top floor of the company, "Brother Chen, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the brothers, I've already thrown out all the stocks in my hand." ”

Liu Yun lowered his head and didn't dare to raise it, only caring about smoking the cigarette in his mouth, and at the same time, there was a coughing sound from time to time.

"Liu Yun, you bastard, how can you do such a thing, how can you betray your brother. ”

As soon as Liu Yun finished speaking, Li Qiang immediately shouted loudly, with a look of indignation.

After shouting and scolding a few words, he seemed to think of something, and at the same time felt a sense of powerlessness, and then there was no sound, and everyone was silent for a long time.

"Xiaoqiang, Wei Ming, sell some of the stocks in your hands to me, you are all family people, it is not easy to struggle to this day, I still have some savings in my hands over the years, and I am alone. ”

In the end, Zhang Chen spoke, as the eldest brother among several people, Zhang Chen felt that he had the obligation to take care of several brothers who started a business with him, not to mention that now they have their own families that they need to protect.

"Brother Chen"

, "Zhang Chen"

, The two wanted to say something but in the end they both held back, but they couldn't say it, they just pounded the table and kicked the chair by themselves, and scolded in a low voice, but what can it be, this is society This is life, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat, the reality is so cruel.

Several people didn't say anything more, just fell silent.

"Alas"

After a long time, all the helplessness turned into a long sigh.

Time passed, and Dawn International was like an island in a storm, as if it would sink at any time.

But at the same time, she still stood there tenaciously, facing the test of wind and rain, as if she had seen hope again.

Although the suppression of Shenglong Group continues, Dawn International has begun to slowly stabilize by virtue of its foundation and reputation laid in the society for many years, and the stock market has gradually begun to stabilize after a period of trough, and the company has slowly entered order, and the remaining employees have gradually begun to get rid of the downturn.

All this shows that in such a storm, Dawn International persevered, although it seems to have returned to ten years ago, but her standing is a great success and victory.

It has been nearly half a year since the negotiation at that time, and today is another sunny day, watching the company improve day by day, Zhang Chen's heart is like a stone falling to the ground, and his mood is also exceptionally smooth.

Because he lives in the suburbs, after breakfast, Zhang Chen drove to the company, just went out not far, when he reached an intersection and waited for a red light, a large truck on the opposite side rushed at high speed, oncoming, and before he could react, he collided with him, and at the same time, the air seemed to be accompanied by a small sound.

"It's only to blame you for offending people you shouldn't have offended. ”

"It's over. ”

This was Zhang Chen's last thought.

Then it went dark, and the consciousness was completely darkened.

And at this moment, the iron card that he hung on his chest and never left his body was slightly bright, emitting a slight light on his head, and finally it flashed away as if it had never appeared, as if it had never appeared in a blink of an eye, as if it had passed thousands of years, Zhang Chen's consciousness slowly woke up, and when he saw the darkness in front of him, he was shocked: Where is this?

Am I not dead?

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen couldn't help but move his 'body', and suddenly found that he still had a body, and the whole person was like a shadow, and he suddenly panicked in his heart.

After some intense psychological struggle, Zhang Chen finally gradually regained his calm.

'Looking at' the vast darkness in front of him, Zhang Chen, who didn't know where he was, and didn't know what to do at this moment, began to wander in this boundless darkness, as if there was no end, time seemed to be frozen here, accompanied by only eternal darkness and loneliness.

"Why is there nothing?"

"Where is this?"

"Why am I here?"

"Is it hell?"

As time passed, Zhang Chen's mind had countless question marks, but they could not be answered.

Zhang Chen continued to float and float, like a ghost, one day, one month, one year, until it seemed as if thousands of years had passed.

"Ahh

Just when Zhang Chen didn't want to endure all this anymore and just wanted to sink forever, there were suddenly a few lights in front of him, and he 'blinked', afraid that it was an illusion and would slip away in the blink of an eye, so he ran towards the light in front of him with all his might.
