Chapter 3: The Lobbyists of the Lin Family (Part I)
Between the crowded buildings, there was a surging flow of people, and a black 'Ferrari' stopped in the alleyway, almost blocking the narrow alleyway, and passers-by had to turn sideways to pass on both sides of the car. Although the car caused great inconvenience to pedestrians, passers-by did not complain much, but more surprised and envious - this is a sedan that should not be here.
Although the lanes are narrow, there are not many car owners who ignore this fact, and some cars are parked by the main gate on some floors, but most of them are low-end cars, and there are few Ferraris like them. It's not that driving a Ferrari is great, it's that a Ferrari owner should never be in one of these working-class buildings. It's like a gorgeous cheongsam only to be thrown into an inconspicuous corner.
Next to the Ferrari, a middle-aged man in a crisp suit stands under a relatively clean floor. The luxurious life did not make him pot-bellied, on the contrary, he seemed to retain a good figure that is rare among successful people. There is no such superiority on the face that rich people reveal all the time.
After ringing the doorbell, he waited by the doorbell, looking a little anxious, and from time to time he showed a look of contemplation, as if he was hesitating about something.
'Drop!~' When the sound of the microphone being picked up came from the other end of the doorbell, a smile finally appeared on the middle-aged man's face: "Jun Xuan, I'm my uncle!"
"Uncle, come up!" came a young man's voice from the other end of the microphone, and a 'beep' sound came from the other end of the microphone, followed by a crisp 'pop' sound from the door lock.
"This kid!" the middle-aged man shook his head and smiled bitterly, there was nothing he could do about the boy on the other end. Even if he is his uncle, he doesn't give face, and he will break it off. It's not that he's a nephew, how arrogant he is, but that this is his real surname, but it's precisely because of this that he is even more helpless.
Pulling open the door, Li Yufan stepped forward on the corridor, thinking in his heart. Lin Junxuan is his nephew and his sister's only son. The Lin couple run the largest Tiancheng Group in Shenzhen. At the beginning, this group was just a small enterprise with a registered capital of only tens of thousands, but under the management of Lin Hai, it slowly became bigger and bigger. In the process of running the company, Lin Hai himself showed a talent for management gradually attracted the attention of some investment giants, a sum of money invested in Tiancheng, with the injection of these new funds, Tiancheng has now become a multinational surname group, its company business has spread throughout China, South Korea and Southeast Asia, is rapidly penetrating into South America, North America and Europe.
The board of directors of Tiancheng Group now has more than a dozen directors, ranging from controlling shares. Lin Hai did not have full control of the company. However, the holding of 40 percent is still solid for the chairman's position compared to other shareholders who only hold a few percent. In private, Mrs. Lin also holds about 10% of the shares, and more than a dozen shareholders have a very good relationship with the Lin family, in this sense, although Tiancheng has changed from a sole proprietorship to a financing group, the Lin family still guarantees their absolute control over the company.
The Lin couple came out early to start a joint business, so Lin Junxuan was left behind to be taken care of by a nanny when he was very young. Although Mrs. Lin was very reluctant, Lin Hai was deeply influenced by Western thought, believing that this environment of growing up alone would help him cultivate his reading power from an early age. In the end, Lin Hai persuaded Mrs. Lin with his talent and success in the mall.
But there are pros and cons, and the purpose of reading power has been achieved, and it seems to be far beyond expectations at present. But another problem also arises. A child who has been separated from his parents since he was a child and has read life thinks far more than other children. While the other children were still thinking of making up a reason to ask their parents for money to buy snacks, Lin Junxuan was already sitting there silently, thinking about some other things.
By the time the Lin couple discovered this mistake, it was too late to correct it. Now, even Lin Hai doesn't know what his son is thinking or what he is thinking. Originally, in Lin Hai's plan, before the age of seventeen, let the child live the same ordinary life as ordinary people, and after the age of seventeen, let him be exposed to the company's business and high society. But the end result was unexpected.
The Lin couple wanted to take their children with them, but Lin Junxuan gave up the mansion given by his parents and chose to live in such an inconspicuous civilian community. The surname of reading power cultivated since childhood allowed Lin Junxuan to obtain an income needed to maintain this ordinary life through his own hands.
Just thinking about it, Li Yufan had already walked to the door, the security door was open, Lin Junxuan stood at the door, and called out lightly: "Uncle." ”
Li Yufan took off his sunglasses and walked straight in, taking out a key and a piece of paper from his arms: "Na, this is what your mother asked me to give you, and the address of the new house is on the paper." ”
"Uncle, you know, I'm not going to stay there. Lin Junxuan stopped and turned on the switch of the light in the living room.
"I don't care about this," Li Yufan insisted on a rare time: "I'm just an errand messenger, send the key, and my task will be completed." I'll put the key here, if you don't want to stay, you can go back and tell your mother. ”
Lin Junxuan glanced at Li Yufan, just a glance, he had already seen that this uncle was determined this time and could not be changed, so he didn't insist anymore, took the key and said, "Okay, I'll give it to Mom." Uncle, I'm humble here, so you can just take a break. ”
Li Junxuan led the middle-aged man into the study, pulled out the only chair in the study and asked him to sit down, and then poured a glass of water.
Li Yufan took the cup once, glanced at the water in the cup, and said with a smile: "Are you going to invite your uncle to drink this kind of mineral water?"
There was no embarrassment on the young man's face, and he said lightly: "It's just water, whether it's mineral water or tea, it's just water, just to quench your thirst." ”
The middle-aged man put down the water glass and looked around, there was basically nothing in the study except for books. Lin Junxuan's place of residence is indeed very simple, and there is only a chair to sit on to entertain this uncle.
"I really don't understand you, you don't live in a good house, you have to shrink to this remote place, when I came, I couldn't even find the road, I set off at nine o'clock, and I didn't find your place until ten o'clock. That's it, you don't even want the bank card your mother gave you, I really don't understand what you think. Do you know how sad your mother is? Saying that, Li Yufan sighed, looking like he hated iron but not steel. Li Yufan has no children, and he treats this nephew as his own child.
Lin Junxuan smiled indifferently: "Uncle, you know, I don't need it." I don't need much money every day, and I don't want to eat bird's nest in the mountains, nor do I want to eat big fish and meat. Besides, I can make my own money to support myself - my mom understands!"
Li Yufan knew that he said that he hurt his mother's heart, but if he didn't do so, this kid didn't care. The Lin couple may have been sad at first, but now they are gradually understanding. Anyway, the child lives a worry-free life and lives a solid life, even if he chooses his own lifestyle, he can only accommodate temporarily.
"You kid!" Li Yufan scolded with a smile, "I really can't do anything about you." ”
"Uncle, aren't you here just to give me a key?" Lin Junxuan said.
"Besides this, what else, don't you know?" Li Yufan looked directly into Lin Junxuan's eyes.
Lin Junxuan turned his head, obviously knowing what he wanted to say: "Uncle is here to act as a lobbyist?"
"Hey, Tiancheng Group will be inherited by you sooner or later, although Tiancheng was created by your father, but after all, it is not all your father's. Shopping malls are like battlefields, and many machines become treacherous, and if you are not careful, you may lose your family and property. Your dad originally wanted you to go over and take over the company slowly. But I didn't expect it...... If you don't have this talent, you can't support the wall. Your dad knew that you had this talent for business, and he would let you bury it like that. Your uncle and I are the first lobbyist, you wait and see, there will be more lobbyists. ”
Lin Junxuan leaned against the window, turned over a page of "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang" and said casually: "As long as the money is enough, a person who can't eat enough every day, if he can earn hundreds of dollars a month now, he will think in his heart that it would be good if he could earn thousands of yuan a month." But if he can really make a few thousand dollars, he will think that it would be good if he could make ten thousand dollars. When he earns tens of thousands of yuan, he will look up to ...... to a higher level. Even at this time, the problem of three meals has already been solved, but it is still not satisfied, and it will never be satisfied. -- My father is now the chairman of a group with assets of tens of billions of dollars, and for many people, this is an angle that can only be looked up to for the rest of his life, but what else does he want to pursue? If making money has become a burden, why should he continue?
Li Yufan looked at the young man with an angry look: "How can you have such thoughts?...... A few hundred yuan a month is enough to spend, and it is enough to have a full stomach, so let me ask you, don't you need anything other than to eat? What if you have a sickness? Can you just wait for death? Nowadays, it costs more than 2,000 a month for a child to go to elementary school, and at what age do other people's children start learning piano and English, but your children cannot, will you be unwilling? Other people's children play with high-end toys, but your children can only play with mud, are you willing?
"You're still young, and sooner or later you're going to have to go through this step, and these things can't be avoided. Look at the books you read, the Tao Te Ching, and the Zhuangzi, no wonder your father wanted to burn your books. Li Yufan exhaled heavily, only feeling that he had never had such emotional fluctuations when facing the most difficult opponent in the mall. It's really deep love, so hateful!
The young man just smiled and didn't care, and only said one sentence: "Uncle, if it's like you said, won't all the poor people in this world survive?"
