Dust is like a city

Chapter 194 Comer

In the headquarters of the HEM building, several people sat in the small meeting room, the atmosphere was slightly serious, everyone was reviewing the documents in front of them, and no one spoke.

"This is all the actions of the old chairman recently." A key-level manager pushed down his glasses and said, "The assets of the company in the United States have been controlled by him, although so far it is not enough to control several companies in our country. It poses a threat, but from his recent steps, it can be seen that the old chairman will not only control the company in the United States, but I am afraid that our branch in Europe will soon be controlled by him."

Since the official showdown between Huo Rongxuan and Huo Yong, the enterprises under Huo's name have clearly split. Although the number of shares held is constant, the actual power of each branch company is different.Everyone in this place is a bit insecure, Huo Rongxuan and Huo Yong, there is only one winner, and these key characters must choose their own team in this short period of time, and they must win.

"The pressure on the board of directors has been increasing recently. They think..." The manager looked at Huo Rongxuan's face before continuing, "They think that the company's recent stock price drop is due to the news of a split in the company. The unstable factors that have been leaked out have caused, and they require us to stabilize these factors now, otherwise..." At this point, the manager looked at the other people seated again, and did not continue.

"Otherwise, what about?" Huo Rongxuan asked with a normal expression.

"Otherwise...they may reconvene the board of directors and decide to vote again to determine the company's top decision-maker." The manager bowed his head.

Huo Rongxuan didn't react too much, but a cold smile flashed across his mouth: "They don't have this chance, my grandfather is still in China, right?"

"Yes."

"That's fine. Since he wants to stay in the country and continue to fight against me, his ability to control other branches is extremely limited. The so-called beyond reach." Huo Rongxuan said, "We only need to increase the company's performance during this period of time. Pull it up and stabilize the morale of the army, and the board of directors will have nothing to say."

"But..." One of the people seated next said, "It's not easy, Mr. Huo..."

"If it's easy, you don't need to stay in this conference room now." Huo Rongxuan said coldly, "I don't have high demands on you. You should complete the two previous projects in the shortest possible time. These days, the company’s original shortfall funds have also been in place, so don’t give me any news that you haven’t done a good job.”

"Yes." Everyone bowed their heads.

Most of the people in this conference room today are former executives in their thirties and at most in their early forties. Huo Rongxuan knows their abilities very well. Those in high positions have to fight for at least 20 years. The reason why Huo Rongxuan promoted these people when the company was in turmoil was because he knew a little bit about their ability, and knew that this was an opportunity, and that they would fight, and that was enough.

And his grandfather would never do that. Huo Yong's behavior has always been stable. Even if he really accepted the branch in the United States, the people he used were still those high-level managers in their sixties. There will be a lot of considerations in the situation, so it is impossible to achieve high efficiency in decision-making.

So Huo Rongxuan understood very well that this was a chase between him and Huo Yong.

As for the actions of the board of directors, it was something he expected, so there was nothing to fear.

As long as everything goes according to his plan and there is no deviation, he will not lose this battle so easily.

"Okay, let's end the meeting." Huo Rongxuan said lightly.

That's what I said, but Huo Rongxuan didn't stand up, and the others didn't leave their seats, but continued to wait quietly until the young president made a move first.

Huo Rongxuan just waved his hand: "Let's go."

This action showed his slight impatience, so everyone didn't stop there, stood up and bowed slightly towards him, and then filed out one by one.

When everyone walked out, Huo Rongxuan gently rubbed the center of his brows, feeling tired all of a sudden.

Yes, in this battle, only if every step does not deviate from his plan, he will not lose.

But this step by step, step by step, really forced him to be in a high-intensity work environment every day.

But the most tiring thing is not work, but this battle will be extremely long, and he can't even find time to catch his breath. The sense of powerlessness that is far away will always attack him at certain times.

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, the sound of high heels stepping on the marble floor, not loud, but very clear.

You don't even need to guess to know it's Secretary Kim.

Huo Rongxuan didn't look up, only heard Secretary Jin knock on the door of the conference room symbolically, and then said: "Mr. Huo."

"What's the matter?" Huo Rongxuan asked lightly.

"Uh...someone is looking for it." Secretary Jin didn't speak in the habitual tone of reminding him of the appointment time of various clients, but in his tone he didn't know how to express it.

Huo Rongxuan raised his head and looked at her strangely.

"There is no appointment, but..." Secretary Jin said, "It's Mr. Chen."

"What? Which Mr. Chen?" Huo Rongxuan really couldn't figure out who it was for a while, because of his work, he came into contact with a lot of people every day, and there were even more people with the surname "Chen". Which one was it?What project are you talking to him about?

Secretary Jin turned his head and added, "Mr. Chen Qianchen."

"What?!" Huo Rongxuan stood up almost reflexively, and looked at Secretary Jin in disbelief, "Who are you talking about?"

Although Secretary Jin had already more or less guessed that the relationship between the two was unusual, but it was the first time she saw Huo Rongxuan's emotional changes so much, she was startled for a moment before replying: "...Chen Qianchen...Mr."

Huo Rongxuan basically stopped listening, but quickly walked out of the meeting room, asking, "Where is he now?"

"It's at the reception room on the first floor. I wanted to invite him up, but he insisted on waiting there for you." Secretary Jin saw Huo Rongxuan walking directly to the elevator, and hurriedly followed to answer this question.

"Wait for me?" Huo Rongxuan frowned slightly, and pressed the elevator button, "How long has he been here?"

"It's been a while...you happened to be in a meeting at the time so..."

"You..." Huo Rongxuan didn't know what to say to Secretary Jin for a while, so he could only press the elevator button twice harder, as if he could come faster by doing so.

Secretary Jin was in a cold sweat watching from the sidelines, and really wanted to remind his immediate superior that pressing the elevator twice would eliminate it.But of course she didn't dare at this moment. Seeing her boss's impatience, she really felt her eyes were wide open, and she just said, "I'm sorry...because it's a confidential meeting...or you can go back to the office first, I'm going to bring people up..."

"No need, you go back, I'll go down by myself." Huo Rongxuan said, his eyes fixed on the jumping red numbers.

"Yes."

"By the way, if Qianchen comes over in the future... no matter what the situation is, please notify me immediately." Huo Rongxuan ordered.

"Ah... yes."

After Secretary Jin answered this sentence, the elevator finally arrived with a "ding", and Huo Rongxuan went up directly. Secretary Jin shook his head as he watched the elevator close, feeling incredulous.

When Huo Rongxuan reached the first floor, he walked directly towards the reception room.

It's actually late at this time, and it's the company's off-duty time, so there are quite a lot of people on the first floor. Everyone was stunned when they saw Huo Rongxuan suddenly appearing on the first floor. I was planning to say hello to the president, but found that their president was in a hurry today.

Although he usually looks resolute and resolute, and every time he passes by the first floor, his aura is not to be looked at directly, but usually he always follows a group of people by his side, but today he is surrounded by people. There was no one there, judging by his purposeful and fast pace, it seemed more like he went downstairs to find someone.

Of course, he did come downstairs to find someone.

Huo Rongxuan really did not expect Chen Qianchen to come to him.

Although he vaguely knew in his heart that it might not be a good thing, but just because Qianchen came to him, it was enough for him to be a little happy.

On the way back from the hospital that day, he kept thinking about Xie Xia's words. After thinking about it for a long time, he really felt that he didn't know and care about Chen Qianchen very much, so he looked up Chen Qianchen's recent situation online.

Chen Qianchen is indeed a topic king. After entering his name in the search bar, countless news and topics pop up.

Some Huo Rongxuan knew, but there were more Huo Rongxuan did not know.

From the early disputes over the termination of the contract, how much cyber violence Chen Qianchen faced alone, to the recent implication because of Jiang Gao's drug use, there are many, many things that Huo Rongxuan really doesn't understand.Before that, he had always thought that the entertainment industry was just a place for children. If any patron in City A was willing to spend money, he would really be able to praise whoever he wanted.It is undeniable that for a long time, in the eyes of Huo Rongxuan, the entertainment industry is actually a pastime for rich people. This kind of pastime is just like going to Macau to watch the big carousel. .

For the same long period of time, Huo Rongxuan also felt that he was a more gentlemanly person, and he had given enough respect to his bed partner. Not too little.

But it wasn't until that day that he spent a long, long time reading most of Chen Qianchen's news topics on the Internet that he really realized that this circle is not simple, perhaps because it grew up at the bottom of society and worked hard. It is necessary to connect with the upper class, so those dark sides grow crazily at a more terrifying speed.

In this circle, not many people are destined to be clean.

Chen Qianchen was never the only one.

That day Huo Rongxuan was really silent in the car for a long time, he didn't know what kind of attitude he should use to face Chen Qianchen.After all, he was not able to be by Chen Qianchen's side when he was in the most difficult time. It was a rare time when he asked himself for help and he even hurt someone with bad words, even if he didn't mean it, he really hurt the other person and even went to the hospital.

When Huo Rongxuan thought of this, he really felt unforgivable.My heart hurts when I think about it.

He felt that he had no face to look at Chen Qianchen.

It's true... I don't know what kind of posture I should use to face him.

The way Chen Qianchen looked at himself before going out at the end...it was so cold.Let Huo Rongxuan believe that if I stand in front of him, it will only make him disgusted.

So the only thing he can do now is to help him more or less behind his back, even if this approach may only lead to deeper resentment from the other party, but so far this is the only thing he can do.

Today when Chen Qianchen came to look for him, Huo Rongxuan really felt that it was too rare.

Although he guessed in his heart that he came because of some things that he couldn't hide from him, Huo Rongxuan imagined that Chen Qianchen would probably call him to question him, but he really didn't expect him to come in person.

He is still willing to come to see him?

This is enough for Huo Rongxuan.

Huo Rongxuan directly opened the door of the reception room, and the moment he held the doorknob, he still trembled a little, afraid that the people inside would have already left impatiently, and what he was about to face was an infinitely enlarged emptiness.

However, the moment the door opened.

It was the familiar figure that was still there.

Chen Qianchen stood by the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the scenery outside the window, he turned back only after hearing the noise.

There was no cynicism in her eyes as expected, the golden sunset light in the evening shone on half of Chen Qianchen's face, making her look extraordinarily gentle.

Huo Rongxuan moved his lips lightly: "...Qianchen..." Because of those inexplicable uneasy emotions, when he called his name, there was a little breath in his voice.

Different from Huo Rongxuan who had a complicated heart, Chen Qianchen was calm, so calm that Huo Rongxuan wondered if he really came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime?Or something else.

"Mr. Huo." Chen Qianchen nodded slightly, "I don't know if you have time, but I want to talk to you about something."

Huo Rongxuan felt that he could not feel any hostility from Chen Qianchen, no matter whether he was pretending or not, but compared with the cold eyes when the other party walked out of his room that day, it is really much better now, as long as the other party is still willing to be calm Huo Rongxuan didn't want to think too much about his speech, so he nodded immediately: "Yes."

Before Chen Qianchen could speak, Huo Rongxuan said again: "Qianchen..."

Chen Qianchen looked up.

"...Have you had dinner yet?"
