Too grow a business, it takes years or even decades of hard work from countless employees, but it didn’t take that much time to destroy a business.

There were already so many people staring at it, and online public opinion was a big splash. Even if the local government didn´t want the Xu family to collapse so quickly out of consideration for promoting the economy and employment, it couldn´t hold the wall and push everyone down.

In addition to financial fraud, some product problems under the Xu family’s name had also been exposed. In fact, some products use in the process of making things like health care products would be more or less suitable for certain groups of people.

For example, mango, some people would be allergic to it.

What broke out this time was a baby food that the Xu family vigorously promoted. In order to better promote the product, the company did not say many things clearly.

Originally, many young novice parents were inexperienced. After reading the advertisements saying that this was good and that was good, they bought all of them for their children to eat, supplemented with calcium, iron, zinc and vitamins, for fear that their children would lose at the starting line.

In fact, this food was not a bad thing. The problem was that children who were too young couldn´t eat it. The staff responsible for promotion also vaguely did not explain the precautions. As a result, something went wrong. The child went to the hospital and almost died.

The child’s mother posted a complaint on Weibo, and a bunch of comments about their own children’s symptoms also appeared immediately below.

All of a sudden, Xu Group’s products were pushed to the forefront. The person in charge was continuously interviewed by various relevant departments and chased by major news media.

In just a few days, the stocks of listed companies under the Xu Group continued to drop by the limit. In just a few days, billions of market values ​​were evaporated.

The company itself was in a predicament, and the frenzied selling shares of the shareholders had made Xu even worse.

Lu Yi had been paying attention to this matter from the beginning. When the stock price of the listed company under Xu’s name plummeted to the bottom, he bought a lot of shares.

Of course, he did not plan to eat the Xu group. After all, the Xu group had grown to such a large scale that even if it collapsed, the shell was still there, and the government couldn´t helplessly see so many employees laid off at the same time.

And according to his understanding, a certain colleague had been greedy for this piece of meat for a long time, and retail investors watched the avalanche-like falling stock price and sold it anxiously, including his own handwriting.

It took about a month for the head of the Xu family to apologize for the fraud, and also made a very sincere apology for his improper publicity, and listed his compensation to the victims.

The work of public relations was done in place, but the heavy damage had already been done, and it was not so easy to restore.

After barely half a year, the Xu Group once again appeared in the news columns of major media as the acquiree of a major acquisition.

The Xu family had a heritage of more than 100 years, but it was originally just a time-honored brand, and gradually developed into a chain. In the hands of Mr. Xu, it became the current Xu Group.

Originally, Mr. Xu was very old, and he almost retired. When this happened, the old man in his 80s came out to apologize to the public, played the emotional card, and did a good job of public relations. After the stock price began to rise, he changed hands, took Xu and sold it for a good price.

He could also see clearly that his children and grandchildren had their own children and grandchildren. Although it was said that this failure was driven by opponents, in the final analysis, Xu’s roots were rotten, and the loopholes were so big, no wonder others took advantage of the loopholes.

Lu Yi still admired Mr. Xu’s courage. After a period of asset integration, the Xu Group had also changed its name.

The Xu family had carried out a very large personnel transfer, and the jobs of ordinary employees had basically been retained, but those who were related to the senior executives at the beginning, and those who were not capable, were basically transferred.

The general managers of many branches were reduced to the heads of some leisure departments, and some who only relied on slapping their horses1 to take the position and made mistakes of principle were fired on the spot.

In an enterprise, if the leader wanted to let you go, there were hundreds of ways to force you to go. Moreover, many of the Xu family’s related households were used to being praised by others. They suddenly fell from high positions, and many of them had an unbalanced mentality, they didn’t need the company to try to squeeze people, they just resign by themselves.

Of course, this was also a small part of the wealthy family, and most people still had to bury their heads in order to live.

If there were real talents and real learning, the company would naturally promote them.

The company that acquired Xu was a large company. After the integration of resources, the other party directly parachuted over a management team. It was Xu Musi’s uncle who was originally in charge of Xu’s listed company. Now that such a big thing had happened, it was of course impossible for him to continue to serve as this director.

On the Xu family’s side, they recommend Xu Musi’s father or hoped that the Xu family could serve as the top management of the company. However, the board of directors of the acquirer had been discussing the candidates to be arranged, and it was revealed that the Xu family should not be arranged, but before the official candidates were selected, Xu’s father could temporarily replace them.

Taking advantage of his own power, Father Xu let Xu Musi also enter the company.

He figured it out clearly, the Xu family was like this, and his son was not too young, so smart, he would definitely have a good development in the company.

He was just such a son, and it was estimated that there would be no other children in the future. He must be to seek more welfare for Xu Musi.

Xu Musi’s character was someone who could not get started from the grassroots level. Father Xu arranged a good management position for his son, in a very important department, pointing his son to work hard to climb up.

Xu Musi was indeed talented in business, but with his personality, it was not a problem to be a manager, but to be an ordinary employee, or more precisely, a small high-level executive who carried from top to bottom, he was not suitable.

The most suitable thing for Xu Musi was actually to let him open a company and be a decision maker, but Father Xu was really reluctant to part with this big piece of fat from the Xu family, and he still had some hope in his heart.

As a result, Xu Musi, who had always been praised for being smart, did a very bad job in the new company.

Originally, his current identity was the Xu family, but the company was no longer owned by the Xu family. Also, the new owner’s attitude towards the Xu family was also seen by the employees underneath.

Xu Musi was very good-looking, but his temper was really bad.

For celebrities, being good-looking people, as students, could get a meal, and everyone was willing to treat good-looking people in various ways.

At work, everyone was willing to give him a little more favor in virtue of his face.

But people in the society were more realistic than students. In front of interests, having a good-looking face was nothing.

Xu Musi stayed in the company for about two months, and the meeting on the acquirer’s side was over, and an email was sent. The general meaning was that the Xu family needed to inject absolute fresh blood. For this, they would send a young CEO. The CEO held about 3% of the company’s shares after the asset consolidation and liquidation, and was also a member of the board of directors.

The new CEO was quite mysterious, until the day the other party came, Father Xu didn’t know what the other party’s full name was. The other party had something to do abroad before, and the company arranged for a special person to pick him up on the day he took office.

Father Xu, as the acting CEO, naturally also went. And in order for his son to show his face in front of the other party and leave a good first impression, he also arranged a position for Xu Musi in the entourage.

As soon as the two parties met, the new CEO’s face was not bad, but Xu’s father’s face was ashen.

Because his future immediate boss was not someone else, but Lu Yi, who once had an old grudge with him.

At the beginning, Xu Musi looked at their collections with a high-level attitude, but now the feng shui turned around, not only Xu Musi, but also Xu’s father had to obey Lu Yi’s arrangements.

Moreover, the acquirer said that Lu Yi held 3% of the shares. What did this mean? It showed that the other party had been thinking about the Xu family. It was very likely that this time the Xu family had lost so quickly and there was Lu Yi’s handwriting in it.

After getting off the plane and entering the company for inspection, many high-level executives approached Lu, and their attitudes were even a bit flattering.

Lu Yi’s attitude was neither hot nor cold. After he arrived at his new office, he said, “You all go out, and General Manager Xu will stay for a while.”

The office door was closed with a click by the secretary.

Father Xu didn’t sit either, he stood there with one hand on the table, looking down at Lu Yi, his voice carried a bit of arrogance: “What do you mean, you deliberately came to trouble our father and son??”

Lu Yi clasped his hands together, his attitude was very calm, and he admitted frankly: “You are right, if it wasn’t for the two of you, I would not necessarily come.”

He was very busy with his own business. He didn’t want to be the CEO at first. He just wanted to be a small shareholder who could talk and had some weight. Later, he thought about it, and this kind of face-slap thing was still a refreshing to do.

It was not that compelling to slap faces in person, but it was cool. It would be a pity to relay on others and not be able to see these two people’s faces change with his own eyes.

Father Xu didn’t expect that he would admit it so happily, he was stunned, and then said, “You shouldn’t bring your personal emotions to work.”

Lu Yi didn’t talk to him about personal matters, but only spoke in an official tone: “If your work is impeccable, I naturally can’t find your fault, right, Mr. Xu.”

“Okay, don’t think too much about yourself. I’ll leave you here mainly to hand over the work.”

Father Xu wanted to talk to him about private affairs, but Lu Yi talked to him about business affairs.

After working in the company for such a long time, Lu Yi was very strict with Xu’s father, and Xu’s father was very angry, but for the sake of life, he was able to endure it and held back a lot of energy, but he really did a good job.

During the regular meeting, Lu Yi didn’t pick on any blame, and praised him. Father Xu naturally also stood up and said various words of thanks to the leaders for their appreciation.

If it was an equal opponent, he also thought it was nothing, just like other high-level executives who had never had an old relationship with Lu Yi, no matter who it was above, the leader was young, and he could lead everyone to get rich together.

But Father Xu was different. He was trampled under his feet by the ants that he didn’t care about in the past. Even if the other party didn’t do anything, he felt particularly ridiculed.

After praising Father Xu, Lu Yi talked about Xu Musi again.

Father Xu could bear it, but Musi Xu could not. He specially raised the situation of a certain employee, and then said without a doubt: “I received, this young Director Xu seems to be your only son, Xu Zhen, right. ”

He knew early on that Lu Yi still had to ask such a question, but Father Xu held his nose and replied, “Yes.”

Then, several high-level executives conducted a certain analysis and criticism of the related households. Poor Xu Zhen, who was so old, had to review his behavior in front of so many people.

When such a thing happened, Father Xu could not let Xu Musi work in the company.

On the day when Xu Musi resigned, Lu Yi sent Xu’s father two invitations, one for Xu Musi and one for Xu’s father.

This was an invitation card for a happy event. The big characters on the invitation were gilded, especially made by a designer. It was very dignified and had a very artistic beauty.

Both parties at the wedding were men, and one of the grooms was the diamond bachelor of the He family, He Si.

The two had been dating for more than a year. He Si used to be a prodigal son, who lived in the grass, the kind of leaves that didn’t touch his body.

Now that he was older, he cried and said he felt insecure. Especially when Lu Yi entered the Xu family for the sake of the Xu family and his son, he even felt a sense of crisis.

Although Lu Yi tried his best to assure him that he would never look at people outside, the old man always had a sense of crisis.

There is a saying, between love and hate there´s only one step, hating Xu Musi was also a different kind of attention.

He planned a very attentive proposal scene, and proposed to marry himself with a diamond ring.

Lu Yi didn’t say that he must find the Xu family, but He Si insisted that both should be invited.

When Lu Yi saw his insistence, he let him.

Although He Si was older, when the two got along, Lu Yi was more tolerant, while He Si was more emotional.

On the day of their wedding, Xu Musi just glanced at it from a distance and went to the hospital.

Later things, Lu Yi did not deliberately target or embarrass them.

But he also made people look at Xu Musi. If the other party dared to do things like before, he would seize the evidence and sent the other party to prison.

However, Xu Musi was not so “competitive”. Because of his depression and desperately trying to catch up with Lu Yi, when he was less than 40 years old, he died of a heart attack.

On the other hand, Lu Yi and He Si, the two of them lived a long life. Although there were quarrels and conflicts, they finally lived with happily until their temples were gray.

…

He was struck by a strange light and lost consciousness. When he woke up again, Lu Yi found that he was a freshman in high school.

A bright red T-shirt, an ordinary inch head, and the pimples that were unique to boys of this period on his face. He opened his mouth to speak, and his voice was as unpleasant as a drake’s voice.

And the reason for such a thing was entirely because he wanted to travel through the world and retrieve Yu Ke’s fragments.

And because when Yu Ke was in a car accident, the pile of novels under him were all bloody novels, so the fictional world was also very bloody.

Facing such a strange event, Lu Yi’s mood was calm, as if it had happened more than once.

He didn’t know what the maliciousness of the world was, but his identity this time was the future husband of the protagonist Zhao Wuchen.

It was the future because it’s a story of rebirth.

In the original trajectory, Zhao Wuchen and cannon fodder Lu Yi were childhood sweethearts. Because Zhao Wuchen’s parents were unreliable, Lu Yi, a neighbor, took good care of him.

It was because Zhao Wuchen was pitiful and lovable, less annoying than his naughty little brother, and taking care of him, the original owner Lu Yi was moved.

That’s right, the original owner had a younger brother, and his name was Lu Er. Originally, Lu Yi thought it was strange to have the same name. After all, Yu Ke said he had never seen the ones the books he bought.

But after knowing the name of the cheap brother, he determined that it was a coincidence. It should be that the author was too lazy to think of the name, so he just gave the cannon fodder a simple number as the name.2

In short, the original owner was eaten to death by Zhao Wuchen, and even after working by himself, he also provided a lot of money for Zhao Wuchen to study.

He saved money on his own, and made sure his little boyfriend ate and drank well.

When the memory fragments were placed, Lu Yi’s eyebrows already wrinkled.

No matter how good he was to others, he still had a bottom line. He wouldn’t put his face on the ground and put on such a humble attitude.

Sure enough, after Zhao Wuchen succeeded, Zhao Wuchen dumped the original owner, on the grounds that the original owner was too old to be worthy of it.

And the reason why the original owner was so committed to this Zhao Wuchen was because of Zhao Wuchen’s appearance and scheming that did not match his age.

Zhao Wuchen was not a real child, but a rebirth man. The original owner was just a pedal he had chosen. The real son of heaven in his heart was someone else.

Just because he was reborn, he was afraid that he would change the facts too much and that he would not be able to see the other party, so he did not find someone in advance.

Lu Yi looked at the large stack of money scattered on the table, and the broken piggy bank.

In order to save money to buy gifts for his little boyfriend, the original owner did not hesitate to smash his piggy bank. In addition to his good grades in the college entrance examination, the bonus given by his parents was almost 10,000 yuan.

The original Lu Yi promised Zhao Wuchen to travel to X City.

What the original owner didn’t know was that the reason why Zhao Wuchen was so longing for X City was because the ex-boyfriend he had been obsessed with in his last life was in X City.

Looking at the large stack of money, Lu Yi put it away expressionlessly. Although breaking promises was not a good thing, it was better to let Zhao Wuchen dream about things like him giving money to Zhao Wuchen to find his ex-boyfriend.
