Chapter 219: Bigwigs Gather
January 18, 2017.
All the major economic media went to Shanghai...
Trauson Group, as the top energy group in Shanghai and even in China, has undoubted influence.
And Gu Hebang, who has been the chairman of Trauson Group for more than 20 years, is relatively unfamiliar to ordinary people, but his status in the industry is definitely top!
If it was just the election of the new chairman by the board of directors of Trauson Group, it would not have caused such a big sensation, but if the news of Gu Hebang's retirement was added, it would be a different matter...
In 2019, Ahri's old horse retired, didn't he once rush to the hot search...
The end of the curtain is more eye-catching than the inheritance.
Located on the banks of the Huangpu River, the Chuangsheng Building is already full of luxury cars at the moment, in addition to the security personnel of the Chuangsheng Group itself working hard to maintain order, a temporary security point has been set up around it, in order to ensure that there will be no accidents during the event...
To be clear, the people who can be invited here today are the top figures in the Chinese business community...
If there is a special circumstance, the impact will not only be a national sensation, but also a major news story around the world.
Gu Hebang's retirement event was held at 10 o'clock in the morning, but now it is still a few minutes away from 9 o'clock, and the invited bigwigs have already stepped in, Zhang Wanjun, executive director and vice president of Trauson Group, walked out of the Trauson Building with a smile on his face, followed by the senior management of Trauson Group, full of momentum, and the ordinary employees of the group stopped to say hello when they saw this scene.
After standing at the entrance of the Chuangsheng Building, Zhang Wanjun turned his head slightly and asked the subordinates beside him, "Have you determined the exact time when the distinguished guests came?"
Hearing this, the subordinate hurriedly replied: "It has been confirmed, Mr. Wanda Wang, Mr. Hengda Xu, and Mr. Ren of Huawei Group, including Mr. Gu's friend Huawei, have all given a clear reply, and they will be there on time at 9 o'clock!"
Zhang Wanjun nodded when he heard this.
At the level of these people, almost all 24 hours a day are arranged, saying that it is nine o'clock, that is, nine o'clock, and they come down three minutes in advance to greet them, which can be regarded as giving enough face.
But looking at the hesitation on his subordinates' faces, Zhang Wanjun said unhappily: "If there is anything, just say it, don't talk about it!"
In the face of Zhang Wanjun's reprimand, his subordinate hurriedly spoke: "But our head Qiao in Shanghai didn't give the exact time, and the welcome work is not easy to do..."
"What's not to do? Wait for you to arrange someone to wait, as long as Chief Qiao arrives, you can notify me as soon as possible!"
If it was another leader, Zhang Wanjun might be a little cautious, but when he heard that his subordinates said that the person was Qiao Sifang, Zhang Wanjun was a little relieved...
Let's not say that he understands Qiao Sifang's character and doesn't like pomp, just because of Qiao Sifang's personal relationship with Gu Hebang, he won't care if he doesn't do enough for a face project like this.
Time passed slowly, and three minutes flew by.
A large group of security personnel ran quickly, clearing the parking position, and a convoy slowly stopped at the bottom of the Trausson Building.
"Keep up!"
After snorting, Zhang Wanjun accelerated his pace with a smile brighter than the sun on his face.
The reporters who had been waiting for a long time raised their cameras and stood in the distance ready to shoot, although they wanted to shoot up close, but they knew that it would be good enough to allow them to shoot in a special area, and if they dared to take a few steps closer, these strong security guards would probably be able to throw them into the Huangpu River.
More than a dozen business luxury cars in the fleet opened their doors almost at the same time.
China is a country that pays attention to etiquette and humility. In formal settings, the order of appearance is very important...
Generally speaking, it is the person with the highest status who appears in Echigo, which is called the finale!
Although it came at the same time, the order of honor and matching of status still has to be particular.
The first to appear in the reporter's sight was Zhao Guangnian, chairman of Hezhong Group, in addition to Zhao Guangnian, there was also a young man next to him...
He was the top rich second-generation Zhao Tai that Gu Cheng first knew
...
As the bigwigs got out of the car one by one, the reporter's shutter button was about to press sparks.
Hengda Xu Jiaying, Wanda Wang Jianling, and Huawei Ren Lao Zhang Wanjun looked at the formation in front of them, and hurriedly said, "Thank you for coming to participate in the resignation ceremony of the chairman of our group."
In terms of financial resources, Ren Zhengfei may not be as good as these business tycoons in the field, after all, his total assets are only about 20 billion, which is only a fraction of the current richest man Wang Jianling, a difference of nearly ten times...
But in terms of qualifications, Ren Zhengfei is definitely the oldest of the few, and at the age of 72, he is exactly the same as Gu Hebang, who is retiring today.
It is precisely because of this that the task of speaking on behalf of the bigwigs was naturally handed over to him.
"Mr. Zhang is polite to Lao Gu's retirement, of course we have to come to watch the ceremony and work hard for a lifetime, retirement is good! I'm also here to study, and if his resignation ceremony is done well, I'll do the same another day. 「
Zhang Wanjun also hurriedly responded to Ren Zhengfei's words: "Old Ren, can you retreat, if you retreat, then Huawei must not mess up?" In fact, we also persuaded Gu Dong before, but he insisted on retreating, and we couldn't help it.
In your words, Gu Dong has worked hard for the company all his life, and now that he wants to rest, can we still stop him?"
"It's this reason, it's this reason."
As they spoke, the group of bigwigs formed a circle regardless of their image, each polite, and chatted as if no one was around.
Principal Wang, who came with Wang Jianling, saw this scene, shook his head helplessly, quietly stayed away, and then walked to Zhao Tai's side, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, I was also arrested by your old man?"
Zhao Tai turned his head along the voice, saw Principal Wang's ridiculous face, and smiled helplessly, "Aren't you too?" Unlike Qin Chen and Wang Ziwen, they have both entered the real career period, which is equivalent to pointing out that they will become the successors of their respective groups...
For such an important occasion, it is natural to take it with you.
Looking at Principal Wang's noncommittal smile, Zhao Tai continued to ask, "What about Gu Cheng?"
Hearing this, Principal Wang raised his head, raised his head, pointed to the top of the building with his chin and said, "Today is the retirement of his second grandfather, this is his home field, of course he is in the building."
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Principal Wang whispered close to Zhao Tai's ear, "Did your father tell you any news?"
"What's the news?"
"After Gu Lao stepped down, he only released the news of his retirement, and the chairman of Trauson Group has not yet announced it... And I've been with Gu Cheng for a while, and I haven't seen anyone since he returned to Shanghai three days ago, and it's vague to ask him what he's doing..."
Zhao Tai didn't say anything when he heard this, but made eye contact with Principal Wang.
Although the candidate for the next chairman has not been made public, bigwigs like Wang Jianling and Zhao Guangnian, who have cooperated with Trauson Group, actually have countless ways to know some inside stories.
And the two, as the only son of the big guy, of course know the news...
When President Wang mentioned this topic, he just wanted to confirm it.
Now seeing Zhao Tai's eyes, he has already got the answer.
Sighing slightly, Zhao Tai said, "When I met Gu Cheng four months ago, although I deliberately befriended him, it was only because Minghe Real Estate was in the critical period of listing at that time, and I felt that it was profitable to make friends with him, so I didn't pay much attention to it.
Later, when I learned that he was Gu's grandson, I was also surprised...
I didn't expect that a few months later, he is now completely ahead of me, and he can take over the chairmanship of nearly a trillion group at the age of 20, not to mention the whole country, even if it is the first case in the world.
After today, the title of your Principal Wang's chief rich second generation should be able to change hands."
Zhao Tai did not participate in the trip to Hong Kong Island, but President Wang had experienced the whole process, he knew that Gu Cheng's background was far more than that, and he was also open-minded when he heard this: "If he doesn't succeed as chairman, I can leave the title of the chief rich second generation?"
whereas
And I can tell you, not to mention the second generation of the richest people in China, looking at the world, Gu Cheng should also be the top one. 「
Zhao Tai: "?"
A puzzled look rose from Zhao Tai's eyes.
"Trauson Group does have a great influence in China, but it shouldn't be a big deal in the world, right? That's an exaggeration."
"Exaggeration? If you have time, don't just think about your career, go out and have fun with a few brothers, I heard that the nightclub you are running is going to open in the next few days, take advantage of the past few days to have more contact with Gu Cheng, you will know if I am exaggerating.
Gu Cheng's succession as chairman of the group does not mean that he is the only one who can inherit the group.
These are two concepts."
For Gu Cheng, Principal Wang also knows a little about it, even if he wants to reveal it, he can't reveal it, so he can only play a wave of mystery.
Just when Zhao Tai wanted to ask a few more words, a red flag sedan drove past the two, and all the bigwigs in front of them also stopped talking.
The car door was slowly opened by the driver, and a middle-aged man in his fifties, but his hair was already a little gray, stepped down, and a girl stood next to him with his arm.
"Chief Joe, welcome!"
Zhang Wanjun was the first to react and hurriedly greeted him.
The rest of the bigwigs also said hello.
Qiao Sifang had long been accustomed to this kind of scene, and he didn't feel the slightest discomfort, and said with a smile: "In order to participate in Elder Gu's resignation ceremony, I specially took half a day off, and now is my personal time, so don't be polite, bosses."
After speaking, he patted the back of the girl next to him and said, "Yiren, say hello to your uncles and uncles."
Even if he wasn't prepared, Joy could accurately recognize the names of these business tycoons, not to mention that he had done his homework before he came, and greeted everyone generously and decently.
Joey was dressed in a white gown with a smile on her face, and her makeup was light but her delicate features were outlined.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the group of bigwigs, Joey had already guessed what was going to happen next... Sure enough...
Those praises that I am tired of hearing come out of their mouths, and I have to respond to them one by one....
She really couldn't understand why her father would take her to such a formal occasion.
But fortunately, the politeness did not last long, and at Qiao Sifang's suggestion, everyone walked into the Chuangsheng Group Building.
--------------
--------------
Outside the building was bustling, but inside the chairman's office, it was quiet.
Gu Hebang touched the desk in the office, and said to Gu Cheng who was standing beside him with a smile, "How is it, is this office still to your liking?" It's okay if you're not satisfied, I know you young people like bells and whistles, just let people redecorate it when the time comes. 「
Although three days have passed, Gu Cheng still hasn't recovered from the news that his second grandfather gave him...
What's wrong?
When the system is upgraded to a higher level, how did you make yourself the chairman of Trauson Group?
Although he also engages in some business, such as Gray Rhino Capital, and Worry-free Media, which has been renamed...
But these are just the nature of playing tickets, and I don't care about operation and management at all...
But what is Trauson Group?
An energy giant with a market capitalization of nearly one trillion.
It has tens of thousands of employees, and the indirect impact has reached nearly one million physical positions...
Let yourself be the chairman, he will be a hammer!
But Gu Hebang was obviously determined, and the answer given was that whether Gu Cheng wanted to be the chairman or not, he had to be the chairman, or he would let Lao Gu expel him from the family tree.....
Under the threat of "family tree", Gu Cheng could only reluctantly agree...
As soon as he thought of this, Gu Cheng also said in a casual tone: "What is there to change, anyway, I won't be able to come once in a few years at that time."
Listening to this tone, it is as if he should be the chairman of this group
How much I have been wronged...
Gu Hebang could only smile helplessly: "If you don't come, don't come, anyway, I don't plan for you to really control the Chuangsheng Group."
Gu Cheng's face suddenly became happy, but he still looked at Gu Hebang suspiciously: "Then why did you let me be the chairman?"
"It's not so much about letting you take over as chairman, it's about improving your social status, and the market value of the group has reached this point, and it can't go up, because it's not a good thing to go up again.
But it won't fall, because there are people above who are carrying the bottom for us.
In other words, you, the chairman, don't need to make any major decisions in the future, and I'm not completely retiring, isn't this still a false position as a consultant, and I will help you keep an eye on it in the future."
Gu Cheng still didn't understand Gu Hebang's approach, as long as the news of the heir was announced, although he was still a rich second generation at that time, his social status would not be low...
And through the side knocks in the past few days, he knows that it is Gu Hebang's own decision to let him take over as chairman, not because of external factors...
As if sensing Gu Cheng's doubts, Gu Hebang shook his head with a smile: "Because I know what you're going to do next, the name of the chairman of Trauson Group can't help you abroad, but it still has some effect in China, and I was also involved in some film and television entertainment industries in the early years, so I can still help you a little."
Listening to Gu Hebang's fluttering words, Gu Cheng's brain was a little unable to react...
I thought that only I knew about my main quest...
Now it seems that my second grandfather seems to know...
Just as Gu Cheng was about to continue asking, Gu Hebang waved his hand to stop Gu Cheng and said softly, "It's past nine o'clock, and the guests are coming soon, and it's time for our grandfather and grandson to entertain the guests."
As he spoke, he slowly walked out of the chairman's office on crutches.
Gu Cheng couldn't do it, so he had to follow behind.
