Chapter 189 Even the sun has a sad background
"Father said that he is on his way back. It seems that the position of chairman of the Huo Group will be replaced before you even get comfortable with it."
Huo Rongxin looked like a smug villain, sitting arrogantly on the huge swivel chair.
He crossed his legs happily, opened the drawer and lit a cigar.
"Son, what if your father comes back and sues me over the property from the previous divorce?"
Gu Zhihua pulled his arm and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Mom. Let him beat me if he wants. I am the only son of the Huo family. Huo Wenxi is a girl. How can she achieve anything? The Huo family and the overseas family trust fund will only have my name on them."
"Humph, I thought you were about to get married, and you should have a broader vision. I didn't expect that when something went wrong, you still only thought about yourself. I came here today to tell you how to solve problems and handle public relations crises. Hengdong Group's stock has plummeted. Its affiliated subsidiaries have also been greatly affected. If it is not handled well, Huo's stock price will plummet and its valuation will be halved. By then, your assets will shrink, and I have a lot of negative information about Huo. I don't mind adding fuel to the fire. By then, it will not only be the Huo family that will change, but also the rich list of Upper City, which will be reshuffled."
"What do you mean?"
"I have already transferred the largest and most valuable assets of the Huo Corporation. All of the valuable assets of the Ye Corporation have become subsidiaries under my name. I can dismantle the Ye Corporation, and I can also dismantle the Huo Corporation. You should have seen my ability to target stock prices when I shorted Mingcheng before."
"You bastard, you want to threaten me? Do you think Huo Zhendong can let you go?"
"How do you know? Dad doesn't know? Maybe he already knew it, but he kept it to himself. Now he may have offended someone, so he exposed it in order to seek revenge."
"I don't believe it. If Dad knew, how could he hand over the Huo family business to a person with an outsider like you?"
"Dad has long abandoned the traditional heir system, otherwise he wouldn't have let us take turns in management. Since he was able to introduce advanced management mechanisms from abroad, you should know that he prefers a modern management system where the most capable are promoted. Even Huo Wenxi could be your opponent."
Huo Rongtin leaned over, his eyes suppressing Huo Rongxin who was sitting on the chair.
One hand on the table, long legs;
Always standing tall, always bending your knees.
A real superior.
"Even if Dad is interested in finding a professional manager to run the company, you may not be his best choice. Are you too conceited? What if Father had wanted to hand over Huo's to you a long time ago, and the merger has allowed us to compete for so many years?"
"Then you might as well think about it the other way around. If Dad didn't want to hand over the company to me, why would he go along with Zhou Fushen's wishes and arrange a marriage for me? In other words, you are actually more suitable for a marriage than me."
The corners of Huo Rongxin's eyes twitched slightly.
"Rather than saying it's a competition between the two of us, it's better to say that my father has long hoped that I would become the leader of the Huo Corporation. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been given opportunities after opportunities to make a difference in the group. You are a businessman, and so is he. We are all adults, and we only care about benefits. If this matter is really confirmed by the outside world, there will be a lot of winners, and the losers will only be you and me. Brother, you are a smart man. Haven't we been fighting for so long just to make the pie bigger? What's more, are the chips and pawns in your hands suitable for all-in now? If you can really get rid of me this time, it's fine; if you can't kill me, it will only make me stronger."
Huo Rongxin remained calm and rolled his eyes: "What do you want?"
"Deny the rumors, find out who is behind it, and stabilize the stock price."
The man stood up and turned to look at Gu Zhihua.
"Mom, please make a statement as soon as possible to deny the rumors. I will find out who is behind this and convince Dad not to retaliate against you. No man can stand the fact that you betrayed him."
"You little brat, are you kidding me? You just said dad might know?"
Huo Rongxin stood up quickly and looked at him oppressively.
The fighting eyes released blood again.
The corners of his mouth are slightly raised.
"I mean, even if dad doesn't know, he won't necessarily sacrifice my position. After all, he values my ability. I'm negotiating terms with you. If we still fight as two brothers, the rice will rot in the pot. If I fight you with the identity of another family, the losers will be you and me. The one who will gain power will be the good-for-nothing behind me. Don't you always know this truth? Dad taught us that a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. If we don't get along, the outside world will win; if we get along, the outside world won't be able to snatch us away."
"Huo Rongtian, aren't you tired of playing such a big game of chess?"
"It's OK as long as we can win."
Huo Rongxin did not deny that he was right.
It is not in our interest to be disunited at present;
It's a bargain for others.
He is willing to do things that harm others and benefit himself.
There is no reason to do anything that harms others and does not benefit yourself.
"Do as he says first. I'll have the PR team draft a PR draft as soon as possible."
After thinking for a few seconds, Huo Rongxin decided to compromise temporarily.
Look at Gu Zhihua.
Gu Zhihua actually knew that Huo Rongtin was right.
Don’t let ugly things be made public;
After all, this is a family matter.
"Anyway, the position of chairman will be mine sooner or later. I'll let you do it for two more days."
Huo Rongxin patted his shoulder and pretended to dust him off.
It was already midnight when Huo Rongtin returned to his villa halfway up the mountain.
Xin Suyan was so tired that she fell asleep on the sofa.
My mood throughout the day fluctuates with the changes in the news.
From heavyweight trending searches to public relations statements and lawsuits;
Denying the rumors and announcing Huo’s latest major cooperation project.
A complete set of smooth and perfect public relations operations;
It’s obviously Huo Rongtin’s work.
Presumably, he already knew the truth.
Hearing the man approaching with tired steps;
Xin Suyan was startled and ran to his side barefoot.
"Even if the floor heating is turned on, who allows you to go barefoot?"
Huo Rongtin threw away the coat in his hand and picked up Xin Suyan.
He collapsed on the sofa and loosened his collar.
"Rong Tian, is it true that you are a descendant of the Ye family?"
Huo Rongtin rubbed the Jingming acupoint, looking tired.
"If it's true, what would you think of me?"
Huo Rongtin sat up straight. Even though he was sleepy, he wanted to hear her thoughts.
"You're still you. You haven't become someone else."
"But if my last name is Ye, not Huo, will you look down on me?"
"I won't look down on you. You are you. Sparkling, like the sun, Huo Rongtian. From the first time I saw you, your eyes were full of warm sunshine. Until now, I still like the you who is always full of vigor and vitality."
"Even the sun has a sad undertone. There are nights, winters, and rainy days with dark clouds."
"But they can't block the sun that always shines. The sun that has its own energy. Even if the secret is made public, it can't stop you from shining. The kingdom you worked so hard to build will not be dissolved just because your last name is Huo or Ye."
Huo Rongtian took her hand and said, "The rumors are true. I am Ye Qin's son."
