Cuiming Manor.
6pm.
Villa No. 6.
Only half of the four exquisite dishes on the table were eaten.
A young man and woman sat opposite each other, with red wine in their goblets, and they drank from the glasses.
The white teddy under the dining table was wagging its tail and looking at the affectionate hostess.
"Huang Mao's guys are pretty awesome. They made a fuss all night last night and disrupted the ugly live broadcast. Not only were all the orders refunded, but all the rewards were also refunded. Second Young Master, look, they're all off tonight. It’s broadcast.”
Lin Weiya pushed the phone in front of Dongfang Xiangrui.
Dongfang Xiangrui glanced at it lightly.
"If Huang Mao and the others didn't do their best, I would have given up on them a long time ago. Although they sometimes mess up things, they can basically achieve the desired results."
Lin Weiya smiled charmingly.
"It's not that Second Young Master's idea is brilliant. Without your good idea, how could they have gotten it done?"
Dongfang Xiangrui drank the red wine in one gulp.
"Isn't this all for you? To make you feel cowardly."
"well!"
Lin Weiya sighed softly.
"This is what I said. This morning I scolded that ugly guy, and she stared blankly, with no reaction at all. I felt so happy at the time. This is the best feeling I've had in recent times. The happiest day. When have I ever felt so cowardly?"
Dongfang Xiangrui asked:
"Since you feel so happy, why are you sighing?"
Lin Weiya lit a cigarette, took it from her mouth, and put it on Dongfang Xiangrui's mouth.
"We ruined the ugly live broadcast, and at the same time ruined my brother's business. Yesterday was probably the first time my brother and this ugly guy cooperated. Because of the cancellation, all orders for my brother's dishes were also cancelled. .The loss is not small!”
Dongfang Xiangrui took a long drag on the cigarette and sprayed the smoke on Lin Weiya's face.
Lin Weiya narrowed her eyes lightly, as if she was enjoying this feeling, and took a deep breath at the same time.
Dongfang Xiangrui said:
"Everything has advantages and disadvantages. If you attack the ugly monster, your brother's business will naturally suffer losses if it is related to her."
Lin Weiya sighed again.
"Actually, what makes me most uncomfortable is not the loss of my brother. His cooperation with the ugly monster is to cooperate with my uncle. After all, my unsatisfactory brother still doesn't understand my good intentions. I deliberately competed with him at the beginning The restaurant is just to stimulate his fighting spirit to work hard. In addition to my father's factors, I do not allow him to cooperate with his uncle. I also hope that my brother will be independent and be able to stand alone and run the restaurant well. I deliberately competed with her to steal customers. Source, forcing him to improve his management level, but he is still clinging to the old and unwilling to make progress, and has not made any progress at all."
Dongfang Xiangrui consoled:
"You have done your best and don't blame yourself. It doesn't matter whether your brother's restaurant is running well or not. Fortunately, he can still run it normally and his living standard is much better than most people. He hasn't lost everything yet. Even if it really comes to that point, I won't just ignore it. At that time, he will naturally be grateful to you as my sister, and he will understand your original good intentions."
Lin Weiya smiled and said:
"No wonder the second young master is my confidante. You can guess what I'm thinking. Being with you makes me feel comfortable."
Dongfang Xiangrui smiled slyly.
"You mean in bed, right?"
"Hmm~"
Lin Weiya pretended to be coy.
"The second young master is good or bad!"
Dongfang Xiangrui said seriously:
"Okay! Whether I'm good or bad, you should remember what your main task is. Don't focus on the ugly monsters, and don't always worry about your brother. The point is to take good care of the eldest brother."
"The slave family knows!"
Lin Weiya poured the red wine again and was about to clink glasses with Dongfang Xiangrui when Dongfang Xiangrui's phone rang.
Dongfang Xiangrui quickly picked it up.
"Hey!...Okay! Okay!"
Dongfang Xiangrui drank a glass of wine.
"The old man is calling, I have to go there. The old man is terminally ill and his time is running out. He may have to leave a last message. We must not let the elder brother and the third brother take the lead!"
After that, go to the bedroom to change clothes.
Before leaving, Lin Weiya asked him, "When will you come back?"
"That's not good. Don't wait for me. Let's go when you're full."
Dongfang Xiangrui opened the door and left.
Lin Weiya sat alone at the dining table, shaking her glass of red wine, thoughtfully.
There was silence for a while.
After finishing the wine glass, putting away the tableware, she left Villa No. 6 with her little Teddy.
…
Villa No. 1.
Dongfang Shenglong is sitting in a wheelchair.
His face was sallow, his face was haggard, his hair was sparse, and the few strands he had had turned white.
The sound of huffing and puffing could be heard from far away, mixed with a few coughs. When he removed the tissue covering his mouth and nose, he could see traces of blood in the thick phlegm.
With his withered fingers, he tightly balled up the tissue and threw it into the wastebasket at his feet.
Standing next to him was a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a black suit, with a serious expression. He lowered his eyelids slightly, looked at the paper ball in the wastebasket, and then handed the water glass to the old man.
The old man took a sip and the water glass was returned to him.
On the sofa opposite, there are three people sitting, Dongfang Xiangqi, Dongfang Xiangrui, and Dongfang Xianglin.
The three people also had serious expressions.
It seems that I have become accustomed to the morbidity displayed by the elderly.
After a tight cough, Dongfang Shenglong said feebly:
"You have all seen my physical condition. The doctor has sentenced me to death. Time is running out. You must hurry up."
Then, there was another cough, a piece of paper towel was crumpled into a ball and thrown into the wastebasket.
The three sons seemed a little nervous, fearing that the old man would not be able to finish what he said.
Dongfang Shenglong continued:
"The original plan was to see your results at the end of the year, but now I have changed my mind. By the end of October, there are less than three months left, and I am really worried that I will not live by then. But it doesn't matter, the will has been written and is here. At Lawyer Zhang’s place.”
The man in a suit beside him nodded slightly.
"No one can take a peek at this will until I die."
Another fit of coughing.
This time, the thick phlegm spit on the tissue obviously brought out more bloodshot eyes.
The old man's thin, waxy face became red and swollen, and his wheezing became more obvious.
"Lawyer Zhang will tell you the rest."
Lawyer Zhang cleared his throat.
"What the chairman means is to tell the three of you that time is running out, and I hope you will seize every second to create performance. This tsunami is a disaster, and it is also an opportunity. Ship repairs, ship safety inspections, and business volume have greatly increased. But these are for Dongrun Shipbuilding For the factory, after all, it is a small ship, but the big ship is still sold as a whole ship, especially the large-tonnage ships. Whoever can get orders will bring business to the group company. For a big ship, the workers have work for half a year. What the chairman means is for you to grasp the big and let go of the small, and keep an eye on the big business, not only domestic, but also foreign. From now on, each branch is no longer limited to work within the scope of business, the focus is to compete for Big ship orders. Whoever’s company grabs the most orders by the end of October will be the new chairman.”
The three brothers looked at each other, and Dongfang Xianglin suddenly asked:
"Does the previous performance still count?"
Attorney Zhang replied:
"It doesn't count, but it can be used as a reference."
Dongfang Xianglin raised his eyebrows and stopped talking.
It seems that only Lawyer Zhang saw this action.
Dongfang Shenglong closed his eyes, as if fighting an illness.
Dongfang Xiangrui glanced at his elder brother from the corner of his eyes and looked away.
"Father, you mean that I can also sign domestic orders?"
Lawyer Zhang answered on his behalf:
"Exactly."
Dongfang Xiangqi frowned slightly.
"I want to take my father to Beijing Hospital for a checkup. I can't just listen to the doctors at Dongrun Hospital. After all, the medical level of these doctors is still low."
Dongfang Shenglong still closed his eyes and waved his hand.
"No need, it's of no use."
Attorney Zhang continued:
"I have tried to persuade the chairman more than once, but he has not agreed. What the chairman means is that he has been to the capital many times, and going there again will not change the outcome. The chairman hopes that you will respect his wishes."
Dongfang Xiangqi stopped asking and fell into silence.
Attorney Zhang continued:
"As for the distribution of the 61% internal equity held by the chairman, it is not appropriate to announce it yet. The chairman has already written it in his will."
Dongfang Xianglin was a little disdainful.
"Why are you still so secretive? When has it been? There are no outsiders here, so why not announce it now?"
Dongfang Xiangrui accused him.
"Third brother, when will you change your impatience? Can you calm down? Wait another three months. Maybe you will know the answer in less than three months."
Dongfang Xianglin curled his lips and smiled.
"Second brother, you mean that my father won't be able to survive in another three months?"
Dongfang Xiangrui immediately retorted.
"Can't you understand what I'm saying? Is that what I mean? I mean, the PK between our three brothers will be known by the end of October. By then, won't we all know how the equity will be divided?"
Dongfang Xiangqi shouted in a low voice.
"Okay, now is not the time to discuss this."
Dongfang Xianglin put his hands under his armpits and leaned back on the sofa.
"My eldest brother is very confident. The business volume has increased sharply in recent times, and the momentum has not diminished until now. My eldest brother was originally responsible for the domestic shipping business and is familiar with this area. I am a half-way monk, and I compete with my eldest brother for channels. It is simply a squeeze to get on the shelves."
Dongfang Xiangrui also said:
"I have always been engaged in overseas business, and I am not used to it when I am asked to intervene in domestic business. I have to remind my brother that from now on, if my subordinates sell ships domestically, it will no longer be regarded as grabbing orders."
Dongfang Xiangqi nodded solemnly.
"I respect my father's wishes and do as Lawyer Zhang says."
Dongfang Xianglin seems to have some ideas.
"Second brother, actually from now on, you have an advantage. You are already familiar with overseas channels, and it is easy for you to get started with domestic business. For eldest brother, the focus has been on domestic business in the past, but overseas It has never been involved before. Compared with you, he is already at a disadvantage. It will take time for him to develop further. And I, at home and abroad, are looking at him with a black eye! "
Dongfang Xiangrui chuckled.
"Third brother, then just be your little brother. My brother will not treat you badly."
"It doesn't matter!"
Dongfang Shenglong coughed violently again and waved his hand.
"Let's go, let's go, it's done."
The three people stood up and left their seats.
The second child and the third child ran towards the door.
Dongfang Xiangqi seemed to want to stay, so he was sent out of the room by Lawyer Zhang.
"To avoid suspicion, no one will come unless I summon you. Come together when you come, and leave together when you leave. This is what the old man means."
Dongfang Xiangrui looked back at his elder brother.
"Father is showing fairness. Let's go, brother, Lawyer Zhang serves father more thoughtfully than we do."
Dongfang Xiangqi had no choice but to leave Villa No. 1 with his two younger brothers.
