I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?
Chapter 573 Distrust between Father and Son
"Haha, I don't believe you got anything for me. One thousand yuan? Or ten thousand yuan? This is probably the most Old Chen will give you." After ordering a drink, Chen Xi sat down and looked at his uncle.
"What? Ten thousand yuan? You underestimate me, your third uncle. Who is the most talkative person in this family? Besides your second brother, it's me." It seems that Chen Jingrui is really going to get something good. He even changed the way he addressed Chen Yifeng. In the past, he either called him by his name or called him "Second Brother" in private.
"Oh? Then I want to see what you got for me." Chen Xi pretended to be very interested.
"Listen carefully, I, your uncle, didn't ask you for money or a house. I know you don't care about these. So I asked you for a company directly. With your intelligence and talent, you will definitely make a lot of money!"
"Ah? What company?"
Chen Xi was stunned after hearing this. Would his father give him a company? It certainly wouldn't be Huade. There are a lot of companies under the group. It wouldn't be a small company for him. So he asked directly: "He wouldn't give me a sales point for equipment, right? What's the point? I have to work for him and sell him equipment."
"How would I know? My second brother said he would give you the company. You can go ask him yourself."
"So what did you get?"
"We don't have your abilities, so naturally we have to take what we have... I, Third Uncle, have done a great job this time. Don't forget my kindness when you become successful in the future. I have always been used to living a carefree life, and what I value is a free and easy life. I am too lazy to manage the company, but I can give suggestions and my brain is still very useful. When your company is on the right track, arrange a consultant position for me. The salary... We are all family, you can decide for yourself. I have watched you grow up, and Third Uncle is old now, you have to take care of me..." Chen Jingrui hesitated and changed the subject, and began to ask Chen Xi for benefits again.
Looking at his uncle who wanted to have the best of both worlds, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh.
His third uncle is just such a person, totally uneducated and lazy.
Even if the food was served to his mouth, Chen Jingrui would not eat it.
"Is my dad in the factory now?"
"Here he is! He is showing off his literary talent with a group of painters. No, my second brother is discussing painting techniques with artists."
"..."
Seeing Chen Jingrui, who had gained the advantage, start to speak for Chen Yifeng, Chen Xi immediately felt unhappy.
The top floor of Huade Technology Office Building.
"President, what do you think of this calligraphy? I'll use it to congratulate you on your wedding."
"We will grow old together. Not bad, not bad."
Chen Yifeng looked at the calligraphy and painting handed over by a calligrapher and praised it.
You are already old, but you want to marry a young wife and spend the rest of your life together. I see that you are almost gray-haired now.
Chen Xi, who had just arrived at the door, happened to witness this scene.
"Oh, the young master is here." A sharp-eyed painter reminded.
Chen Yifeng's son would definitely not be able to accept something like a second marriage. The people present were not fools either. Having taken Chen Yifeng's money, they would definitely speak up for him.
"Look at other people's handwriting and learn from it! When I recruit employees for my factory, I first look at their handwriting. As the saying goes, a person's handwriting reflects his character. If someone can't even write well, I won't hire him no matter how good he is in other aspects. Your handwriting is as good as a turtle's. If you follow the normal procedure, I won't hire you..." Chen Yifeng came up and scolded his son.
He knew why Chen Xi came. Since he had given him something, he must act like a big shot.
"Alas, the young master is a returnee, so it's understandable that he can't write Chinese characters well. President, please stop talking about him."
"Yes, the young master must be very good at writing English. Few of us here can speak this kind of English."
These old guys are all very smart and don't want to offend either side.
"Everyone start drawing first. I will take you to sketch in two days." Chen Yifeng said this and turned to leave the studio.
Chen Xi didn't say anything and followed without looking back.
He has always looked down on those who call themselves painters. They can't even support themselves and have to rely on money from others for support. They are simply pretentious.
After entering the office, Chen Yifeng lay down in the boss's chair and began to observe his son's expression.
But after watching for a few minutes, he still couldn't figure out what was going on. Chen Xi's expression showed no guilt, happiness, or impatience. He was just like a robot.
"Was it your idea that your grandparents and your third uncle and uncle came to make trouble this time?" Chen Yifeng took a sip of tea, spit out a few tea leaves in his mouth and asked.
"I don't know what you are talking about. My uncle just called me and asked me to come over. He said you were looking for me." Chen Xi began to play dumb.
"You're going to graduate soon, and I don't think you'll want to work for others. Just go to Huade. I'm afraid no one can impress you, and if there's too much gossip in the factory, it won't be good. I thought about it and decided to give you a company."
"Oh?" For the first time, Chen Xi felt that the father in front of him was a little different.
"Why are you looking at me like that? You know this company. I used to start a company with your uncle Sun, and we cooperated with Fangtai Group..."
Uncle Sun mentioned by Chen Yifeng is the husband of accountant Dou Fang and the father of his childhood playmate Sun Chuan. He was also a painter and later started a business to make a living.
Sun Chuan's father, Sun Chen, looks a bit strange. Although he is a genuine Han Chinese, he looks a bit like a foreigner.
He and Chen Yifeng used to set up a company, and many years ago they started making range hoods, gas stoves and other products together with Fangtai Group.
However, Chen Yifeng felt that he earned too little, so he quit later.
In Chen Xi's impression, this company seemed to have been closed down a long time ago. Wasn't his father going to throw garbage to him?
“This company is still in existence!”
"Yes, of course I am! But don't get too excited. You always talked about how capable you are and mentioned a lot of new projects that I didn't agree with. This company is idle now, which means it has no business. See if you can use your new ideas on it, so that what you said before will be convincing." Chen Yifeng looked at his son with a smile.
I...
I knew it wasn't good stuff.
Chen Xi had been mentally prepared. He said, "Isn't this just an empty shell? I might as well start my own company." "How can it be the same? The office building and brand are all ready-made. Fangtai Group is a large enterprise after all. This company has cooperated with it before, and its brand was also well-known. If you set up a new company, you will need to advertise and spend time. It will take more than ten years before people will know about it..."
"This company and other companies... I mean, they owe money for materials?" Chen Xi suddenly thought of something.
"Of course not. You are my son. Can I give you such a company?" Chen Yifeng thought for a few seconds, then said with a smile.
"Well, if you want to be the successor of Huade Group, you need to have some ability. But ability is not just something that can be said, you have to make achievements for people to see, you know what I mean." Seeing that Chen Xi didn't say anything, Chen Yifeng started to make promises again.
"I heard that you cut off Xinde's supply. Although we have separated now, there is no need to be so drastic. It doesn't matter who Huade sells the equipment to." Chen Xi did not ask about the new company anymore, but shifted the subject to the factory.
"Now that Huade's production has decreased, how can we supply so many products to others? How many units can we produce in a year? If we sell all of them to Xinde, what will happen to our old customers in the future? Now there are people outside who are spreading rumors and slandering me, saying that I am the contemporary Chen Shimei. It must be your mother who did it. Seeing that I am getting remarried, they are envious and jealous. A woman who has just been divorced for a few years and is surrounded by a bunch of men must have cheated on her in the past. If I supply all the products to her, I am afraid that I will be strangled in the future. Son, I have something to say to you. No relationship in this world can be relied on. Parents, brothers and sisters are not as important as yourself. Just live a good life..."
Chen Yifeng turned around and began to slander Chen Caiyue.
This was the case with the two in their previous lives, and each of them would say in public that the other was the one who cheated first.
Although Chen Yifeng said that any relationship was unreliable, his actual actions did not lead to that.
In his eyes, he is the biggest, the second is his mother Huang Jingfang, the third is Chen Jingrui, and everyone else is air, including Chen Xi.
His idea is that a company is like a dynasty. No matter who takes over, it will never last forever. It is better to do what makes you happy.
So it’s the same with passing on the family line. It’s none of his business whether the offspring are good or not.
"I saw some equipment in the factory before, but none of them belonged to Huade. What's going on?"
"What's the big deal? Others took my equipment and disassembled it for research. Can't I disassemble other people's equipment and do research on it?" Chen Yifeng was stunned for a long time when he said this. It was obvious that he was lying.
"I've never heard of those brands on the market." Chen Xi asked relentlessly.
"Everyone in China wants to be a boss now. There are so many factory managers who came out of Huade. They found someone to invest and then started their own business. In the end, they made a bunch of garbage. Those idiots in China only care about the price..."
After Huade stopped operating in the domestic market, the original company veterans became independent, and the top ten machine tool equipment brands were basically all created by those people.
What Chen Yifeng said doesn't seem too far-fetched.
"Is this marriage necessary? How about a different woman?"
"I know you have opinions about Zhang Xuan. First, you think she is after my money. Second, you are psychologically unbalanced because your parents are remarrying. Look at Chen Shubao and Shanshan's father. Didn't they both get married again? No matter how I get married, Huade will still be yours in the future. Why are you in such a hurry? First, run the company I gave you well, and don't think about getting promoted all the time. I, your father, am not even 70 or 80 years old yet."
Chen Yifeng was too smart for his own good. He thought that everything his son had just said was just a way for him to quickly inherit Huade.
"Alas, no one in this world can be trusted, even my son. He's thinking about getting promoted before he even graduates. If this happened in ancient times, he would have killed his father and usurped the throne...Raising a son to provide for old age is all bullshit..." After Chen Xi left, Chen Yifeng was the only one in the office. He leaned back in his chair, sipped his tea and sighed. Then he picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Xiaoxuan, let's go to the villa you liked last time when we have a chance..."
In the parking lot, Chen Xi was about to get in the car and leave, but was pulled down by someone.
"Have you seen the second brother? What did he give you?" The person who came was uncle Chen Mingli. Looking at his gloomy expression, he seemed to be holding back his anger.
"What else can I give? I just gave it to a shell company." Chen Xi spread his hands.
"The second brother is such a bastard. Everyone else got so many good things, but he only gave me 200,000. He even said it was too much, and I used it all to invest in stocks. The third brother spends his days eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, even worse than me, and he actually got so much..." Chen Mingli complained dissatisfiedly.
"Two hundred thousand is not a small amount." Chen Xi shook his head.
These people are too greedy. Two hundred thousand is not a small amount of money nowadays. How much is the average person's monthly salary?
"Your brother spent a lot of money in the Magic City. He can't do anything with two hundred thousand."
"Hey, he... should pick up fewer girls and do less business."
Chen Xi thought of how Chen Zhou had spent millions on women in his previous life, changing girlfriends every two weeks, and losing a lot of money in business. The family situation was not good to begin with, and no matter how much money Chen Yifeng gave Chen Mingli, he would invest it in his son.
"How can you say that? Chen Zhou is tall and handsome. Isn't it normal for him to date more women? How about doing business? Let him come to work directly in Huade. You will be the big boss and he will be the second boss. You will develop our enterprise." Chen Mingli was still dreaming and had no idea of the current situation.
"Uncle, you are not satisfied with what you want, why don't you go to him to make trouble?"
"Everyone else has taken the good stuff, and they've all shut up. If I go and make trouble alone, I'll probably lose all the 200,000, and the second brother will bully me!"
"Haha, isn't this good? If you look at me again, you should feel more balanced."
"Why don't you make a fuss when your father treats you like this?" Chen Mingli asked back.
"What's the point of making a fuss? You might as well make money yourself. By the way, who taught you this idea? It's not like your style at all."
"No... no one taught me, I just thought of it on my own. Okay, I have to get busy." Chen Mingli stammered and found an excuse, turned around and walked towards the workshop.
"No one taught me? I don't believe it." Seeing that the other party refused to talk, Chen Xi drove away.
Xinlu, Zhan Zhan Group.
"Zhang Quandan, I don't think these online stores you told me about are feasible. If the food of our Zhan Zhan Group is sold through the Internet, the price will be lowered. Who will buy the food in the store in the future? You know, we have many offline stores across the country." The chairman of Zhan Zhan Group - Zhan Yangni looked at the man in front of him.
"Chairman, people nowadays like to shop online, which is both cheap and convenient. Offline stores have many problems, such as store location, staff, etc. The most important thing is that many things are thrown away if they cannot be sold. Such a large consumption is very wasteful. If we can adopt online sales, we only need to ship from the factory, which greatly saves costs, isn't it?"
"Zhang Quandan, I know you come from the countryside and have always been frugal. From the initial salesman to the current vice president, you have been thinking about how to sell, and have not considered other issues of the group. There are so many people in the company who need to make a living. If you suddenly do this, we won't be able to open offline stores, and franchisees will be lining up to beat me up!" Zhan Yangni played with a pen unhappily.
He is very worried now, extremely worried.
Since the rise of e-commerce platforms, the business of Zhan Zhan Group has been declining sharply.
Zhan Zhan Group started out by selling roasted nuts. His business is similar to Chen Shubao's nut business, except that he now makes cakes and has a wide variety of food. (End of this chapter)
