Chapter 5 If you can't learn to give up, learn to lose!

Huo Yuanyang stayed in Soweto for ten days, and the search area continued to expand, but there was still no news. He wanted to buy news from "god" again through a middleman, but the result was not satisfactory. "God" seemed to be no longer interested in this business interest, even though the money he paid was sky-high, but "god" did not accept the order.In this chaotic city with no rule of law at all, even if he has a lot of money, what he can do is still too limited.

Ten days later, during a friction with the chaotic forces in the slums, both sides opened fire. He was pierced through his left shoulder by an AK47, causing a commotion that shocked half of the slums. Soweto returned to Johannesburg for medical treatment, and the next day his accompanying assistant sent the news of his injury back to China, and his mother, almost hysterical, ordered him to return home on the phone.

In the past few years, the Huo family's situation has been unstable. He has just gained a firm foothold in the family, and he has just started a small part of the group's affairs. After the death of his father, the head of the house has declined. As the only son of the head of the house, his mother has high hopes for him .Two-thirds of his life does not belong to him, and he does not have complete control over him.

"Young Master, I..." Seeing Huo Yuanyang's unprecedented tiredness, the assistant was a little uneasy. This matter was his own decision, but Madam asked him to stay with Young Master. consider.

Huo Yuanyang pressed his stinging forehead, didn't say anything, but waved his hand to signal him to leave.

Seeing this, the assistant didn't dare to say much, nodded slightly and quietly left the ward. No matter what he explained at this time, it was useless, and the young and the young probably didn't want to hear it.

The winter in Johannesburg seems to be colder than usual this year. It has been cloudy and rainy for so many days, until today it finally cleared up.

The winter sun here is not like that in China, it only has dazzling light but no temperature. The winter sun here is warm, and it even burns people when it falls on the body through the spotless glass.

But for the first time, Huo Yuanyang knew that it was not a lie to say that the so-called flesh is hot but the heart is cold.

Born in a family like the Huo family, the word "profit" is always at the forefront, and he has nothing within the reach of ordinary people, let alone the so-called "love".

Since he was sensible, he was indoctrinated with the Huo family's "benefits". The Huo family has never had so-called "love".

Because he didn't have it, he was so stupid that he didn't know that it was what he had been chasing since he was a child. Because he didn't have it, he could have held it tightly in his palm, but he abandoned it.

This thing of human nature cannot withstand repeated investigations. After the investigation, it will be unscrupulous, it will make progress, it will be arrogant and blind, and it will be self-righteous.

At the beginning, he left him many times, and every time he turned around, he was still waiting for him silently at the same place. Later, he might get used to him standing there, so he became more and more unscrupulous, always thinking that he would not lose , but this time, that person never stood still.

You wait for me one more time, you trust me, I will never leave you alone again, I swear, never again!

He raised his hand to cover his eyes, and the force of pressing his thin lips made his teeth crack. He wanted to ask that person's forgiveness, and wanted to ask for another chance to start all over again, but it seemed that even God couldn't stand it anymore.

"Just once... I swear, just once..." He closed his eyes tightly, not wanting to let the embarrassed and cowardly self fall into his eyes, he murmured, but he was so timid that he was almost silent.

Outside the door of the ward, a well-dressed man with delicate features looked coldly at his nephew curled up in a circle on the hospital bed, his slightly raised eyes were cool.

No matter how regretful he was at the beginning, he didn't even have the courage to admit it out loud. The young master of the Huo family has always had self-esteem and pride over everything else, no matter what price he paid, he would never learn to give up.

Since you can't learn to give up, then learn to lose!

The assistant took a look at the tall and long-legged man from a distance of three meters, and couldn't help trembling. The master of the Huo family really didn't become the head of the family for nothing. With this momentum, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch up in another ten years. Even the son of Huo's eldest son, who was appointed as the next head of the Huo family back then, did not have the power to scare people to the point of weakness.

***

Known as the City of Gold, Johannesburg is the largest city and economic center in South Africa, and the largest gold-producing center in the world. It was originally a prospecting station, and gradually developed into a city with the discovery and mining of gold mines.Probably everyone who comes here for the first time will be amazed by its modern prosperity. It is the most prosperous metropolis in southern Africa, where there are many huge buildings, people are well-dressed, and the economy is prosperous. No difference. [note 1]

But in the end, it is only the prosperity and glamor on the surface. The situation of racial segregation and racial discrimination is serious here, the boundaries between rich and poor are clear, and the levels are also clear. Skilled blacks are still anxious about how to fill their stomachs.

The chaotic law and order here is as well-known as the gold it produces. Businessmen who come here to invest must not only bring enough money, but also bring enough bodyguards to ensure their personal safety.

Chu Quan has been busy with a merger and acquisition case recently, and he is surrounded by people when he is away from home, but fortunately, he is in the urban area, so the situation is not exaggerated.

The four days of high-intensity discussions and meetings did not go very smoothly, and Byron was a little overwhelmed, but he could only raise his eyebrows to keep up with his boss who was still calm and didn't have any ideas about picking someone up.

When he went out in the morning, he still hoped that the little angel would make a little fuss, at least to distract the boss, but under the care of his father, the little angel was so obedient that he didn't even want to hum. Got to go on with the exhausting work of the previous few days.

One morning passed, people came and went at the conference table, no one wanted to bow their heads, and the situation continued to stalemate without any progress.

After a short lunch time, there was a short lunch break, which was used to see the saw a few days ago, and today it finally came in handy for a lunch break. Even though all these giants were rumored to be miraculous by the outside world, they were still mortal in the end Need to eat, drink, and rest. This tug-of-war has lasted for several days, and everyone's energy has been consumed a lot. Even a monster like his boss, who is so energetic that it is incomprehensible, is a little tired between his brows.

"Boss, your tea." After passing the after-dinner tea to Chu Ting, Byron informed him of the invitation he had just received, "Mr. Warburg wants to meet you privately."

Chu Xuan didn't react much when he heard the words, but Xu Hongjian, the person in charge of the company's Yuecheng branch, was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped, and he looked at Byron dumbfounded, "Who are you talking about?!" He suspected that he had just misheard.

"Mr. Warburg, Chairman of the Kuhn Group." Byron repeated dutifully.

Xu Hongjian blinked, and closed the eyeballs that almost popped out, "Are you sure?"

Byron nodded resolutely.

Xu Hongjian was sure that he heard it right, and turned to look at Chu Ting who was drinking tea calmly and completely unresponsive, and was even more confused, "Boss, you seem...not surprised at all."

Although this project is a project of the Kuhn Group this time, the person in charge of the project is responsible for handling it from the beginning to the end, not to mention the senior management of the group, even the nostrils of the person in charge have grown to the forehead .

Before the boss came, this project had been deadlocked for half a year without any progress. If he didn't know the importance of this project, he was afraid of being cut by the boss if he messed up. Yankee ancestors.He held his stomach full of anger and talked like this, and he was almost suffocating himself, and things still stagnated.He couldn't get along with those bastards at all, and asked them to find another person to discuss with them several times, but they didn't like him at all.

But now the boss's special assistant told him that the chairman of the other group met his boss in person? !What the hell is going on here? !The proud financial boss whose nostrils have grown to the top of his head will take the initiative to put down his body to meet with him, but the boss is so calm, as if this matter has been expected?

Just now at the negotiating table, the person in charge was still pointing his nostrils at them, acting like I was your father's virtue, but now he is telling him that the person with the most power in the other group took the initiative to make an appointment? !

I'm afraid he didn't wake up, did he?

Chu Ting said, "It has been stalemate for so long, he is more anxious than us." This is already the fourth round of peace talks, and the progress is still at a standstill. The Kuhn Group, which has invested a lot of energy and carried out a lot of preliminary work, is naturally not what it seems on the surface The clouds are calm and the wind is light.

Xu Hongjian was surprised, "But I thought they were going to continue to lose a large amount of money with their airs. After all, they don't lack money for anything." At least before this, the other party put on such an attitude.It doesn't matter if you have a lot of money, you would rather lose a large sum of money than give up on the key points of the deadlocked discussions between the two sides.

"They're all businessmen, who would have trouble with money?" Chu Tang sipped his tea with a half-smile.

Xu Hongjian took a sip of his coffee, and felt that the boss's words were a bit wrong. He used to think that anyone who can't get along with money is a fool, but now he has seen a lot of people in the market. He doesn't know if people are stupid or not. Great.But looking at the boss in front of him who looked like a young master, he didn't dare to refute on the spot, because the one in front of him was not stupid, but he had the capital to make trouble with money.

Thinking of this, Xu Hongjian couldn't help but bared his teeth at Byron who was beside him.

Byron just smiled lightly, noncommittal.

"Then you want to go to this appointment? Boss." The other party was willing to take the initiative to put down his airs and make a concession to resolve the stalemate situation, but he didn't know if the boss, who had always been tempered, would talk to the big boss who thought so much of himself.

"No." Chu Xuan said lightly.

Xu Hongjian blinked dumbfounded, what was he thinking just now?Is this coming?

Who said just now that anyone would live with money?Why did this businessman who had devoted himself to his work all the year round not accept his account in the blink of an eye?You know, this project has already consumed too much manpower and effort, and the chairman of the other party's group took the initiative to make an appointment, isn't it good news?But now that progress has finally been made, is the boss planning to go on strike?The young master has lost his temper?

"You...Are you sure? Boss."

"To make an appointment alone, they may not agree to make concessions. There are conditions that cannot be negotiated on the table, and the senior management of the group does not have the right to act arbitrarily." And he didn't want to waste time on this meaningless appointment.

Chu Xuan put down the tea in his hand, got up and buttoned his shirt without haste, "I have other things to do, so I'm leaving first."

Xu Hongjian followed the boss and stood up, "The meeting in the afternoon..."

"I'm not going to participate." He raised his wrist to check the time, and it was almost the appointed time, and he didn't intend to delay any further, and Byron helped him get the overcoat on the side.

"Then boss, how are we going to talk about this next?" After finally looking forward to the arrival of the big boss, he could curl up and take a breath like a little loach, but why was the stick handed back in a blink of an eye?

"Adhere to our conditions, without any changes." After Chu Ting finished speaking, he turned and left.

"Okay, boss, I understand." Xu Hongjian answered the boss's instructions very smoothly.

It feels great to be in charge of the boss, but it feels better to have the support of a big boss, doesn't it?At least he is full of confidence, so he doesn't have to worry about being cut by the board of directors because of his toughness and messing up the case!

Leaving the building, the sun is coming, there is no wind, it is very suitable for sitting outdoors, but Chu Ting has no such thoughts at all, he keeps walking quickly to the car waiting at the door.As soon as he got into the car and sat down, Byron's phone rang. After saying a few words and hanging up, Byron turned to the back seat and said, "Boss, Dr. Barrett has arrived."

Chu Xuan nodded, "Well, let's go back first."

Upon hearing this, the driver immediately started the car and slowly slid into the driveway.

The downtown of York City is prosperous, and there is no difference from other metropolises at all. Chu Xuan leaned on the back of the seat and straightened up. His eyes fell on the streets and traffic outside the window, his eyes seemed to be calm, but when he looked carefully, he found that there seemed to be no waves. Byron noticed that the boss seemed a little abnormal today. The boss, who was not very emotional in the past, had already frowned twice in just a few minutes in the car.

Byron quickly went through the events that had happened since he went out today, and found that there was nothing abnormal, and he was even more cautious in his heart. The boss frowned, as if something was going to happen.

Hopefully Dr. Barrett doesn't have any bad news today...

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the door of the main building of the other hospital. The housekeeper and the doctor were standing in front of the steps waiting. When the car door opened, there was a faint cry of a child in the room.

Byron's heart skipped a beat, is his sixth sense cured?
