Xue Minghuang had already changed his clothes on the plane, everything was organized as he rushed to the auction site, it was the most intense time. Everyone thought he was just an arrogant guy. He would be late for an important auction like this. They were even more certain that he didn't have much skill, so they didn't put him in their eyes.
The item being auctioned was a new search engine developed by a small company. After seeing the speed of its operations, it was indeed much faster than the normal equipment on the market. It also greatly saved space and was a very outstanding product.
Xue Minghuang represented the Xue Clan and Mo Nei Clan's pride.
Xue Minghuang knew that the other party was an extremely arrogant and conceited person.
Halfway through the bidding, they were still unable to give in to each other. Jing Feng moved closer: "Young Master, I'm afraid that we won't need them if we were to raise them any higher."
"This won't do. I must take down this item. Else, it would be too embarrassing." Xue Minghuang raised his voice deliberately.
This move was also the first to have an effect. After playing this trick a few more times, Xue Minghuang finally felt that it was enough and decided to stop. The price of the auction had already reached an astonishing level, surpassing its actual value. Jing Feng was still holding onto Xue Minghuang to give an extremely regretful look, while the other party was feeling extremely proud.
On the way back, he asked, "Eldest Young Master, what's next?"
"How's the research and development team doing?"
"The progress is going smoothly. The main thing is that the expert you brought back is truly amazing."
The expert that Jing Feng spoke of was his senior brother when he was still studying in China, a genius in software. If not for him, Xue Minghuang would never dare to take action this time. The team it brings really doesn't need to worry. "
The auction this time was actually nothing, the product presentation next week was the key. Only the top companies could obtain this rare opportunity and take down the development plans of the eighteen top 50 companies in the world, that was Xue Minghuang's real goal.
This time, Mernier's high-priced search engine will be used at the new product exhibition, but, if this engine is not the fastest. It was not certain who would win.
"The concrete plan now, including the research and development team's work area must be kept a secret. After that, the board of directors will have to bear with the pressure. After this week, everything will be fine."
"Understood. You must rest well in the remaining time."
"Get it straight, I'm the boss."
Jing Feng looked at Xue Minghuang and shrugged, "Yes yes yes, you can do it yourself."
"Do the directors know about the auction?"
"Well, the mail informed us of the meeting time, at three o'clock this afternoon."
"Since you're in such a hurry, I'll let you know for a bit."
The company was bustling with activity, with 23 directors attending the meeting one by one and starting at three.
Xue Minghuang took the Chair, and without further ado, he directly went into the main topic, "Only by taking the past can we get the future. You don't even understand this little bit of truth? If we are always worried and unable to move forward because of what happened in the past, then we will forever be the losers. "
The directors looked at each other. This young junior family member in front of them was, after all, too inexperienced. Should they really fight it out with him? What if he failed? It was simply unimaginable. And looking at his performance today at the auction, he was utterly humiliated.
"In the mall, is face more important, or is capital more important? I just want to ask you that right now. " Xue Minghuang was neither humble nor arrogant, although he was a member of the Xue Clan, he had never grown up here. Standing here now, from the perspective of outsiders, he looked more like a 'airborne soldier'. It was normal for people to not believe him.
"That is true, but Young Master Xue, what we lost during the auction is the key to this decisive victory. How can we still have complete confidence in winning the following battle?" Being highly respected, he was naturally unable to avoid being questioned.
"As far as I know, among all the elders present here, isn't that person sitting on the seat today while throwing caution to the wind? "How come you can't bring out this much courage now?"
"Without capital, he only knows how to talk nonsense. What's the use of having such courage?"
"I must be confident to be able to stand here."
"Exactly, what proof?" The voices of doubt rose and fell.
Xue Minghuang raised his voice, intimidating everyone, "How about you prove it during the show one week from now? I'll use the shares in my hands as the wager! "
When those words were spoken, the huge meeting room immediately fell silent.
Xue Minghuang knew that everyone was still worried, so he asked the assistant to distribute the plans he had prepared previously. The conference room suddenly dimmed, and only the projector was shining brightly.
The screen showed the launch of the software at the exhibition. Everyone looked at it and became even more uninterested in working together. With this kind of configuration, how were they going to compete for the opportunity to work together with the other company? What a joke.
"What we are presenting to everyone right now is the engine system that our opponents took away during today's auction. If we were to spend today's prices to get this system back, I would ask, is it worth it?"
This time, no one said anything. "So, for now, don't doubt me anymore! That's all I ask. "If you can't win the case, hand over all the shares."
"Alright, if you don't say anything, I'll just take it as agreement."
"This kid really has the demeanor of his father back then, haha."
"That's right!" This will be the young people's territory from now on. "
"Alright, alright, I won't make things difficult for the youngsters. I agree."
Seeing Xue Minghuang using his shares as a wager, everyone expressed their agreement.
Jing Feng followed Xue Minghuang out of the conference room. "Young Master, the stakes are too high."
"Look at those people in there. They stuff money into their pockets, and when they pay, it's like killing them. However, were they going to swallow this wager as they pleased? Humph! He pulled at his tie in annoyance.
This time, he was going to have a fight to the death. If he really failed, the old man in the hospital would be furious that his gunshot wound didn't take his life.
"Let's not talk about it at the hospital for now, the news has been cut off."
Xue Minghuang knew that this was something that he could only do when he was young. After a few more years, he was really afraid that if he thought about it too much, he wouldn't be able to do this anymore. He went to his senior brother's R & D studio. Everyone was working hard, so no one noticed his arrival.
When he reached the door, he backed out. Going in now was also giving pressure to his brothers. Forget it.
Xia Ying rested in the hospital for a few days, returning home after messing around with all the doctors and nurses who were annoyed by her. There were almost no more news on the internet or on the news, this was all that was good about it, it was easy for people to forget about everything. It would be nice if every single individual could be as forgetful as this.
The biggest worry for a person is that his memory is too good. If he can forget everything, then every day will be a new beginning.
Passing by the supermarket, he bought some ingredients. He suddenly felt like cooking. One person was too lonely, he could only find something to do.
After returning home, he felt some regret. With the good qualities that can't be wasted, I took the iPad and went into the kitchen. He followed the recipe slowly and methodically. The soup was still in the pot and the rice was almost ready. Now, all that was left was to fire and cook a few side dishes.
As expected, the woman was innately gifted in the kitchen. After cooking and preparing to place the dishes on the table, she suddenly felt that it was weird. When she turned around, not far away, Zhong Zhen was excitedly looking at her.
Looking at Xia Ying's stupefied expression, Zhong Zhen felt that the trip this time was really worth it. "I confess, I came in while you were shinning and pouring that dish of cauliflower into the pot."
"Mhmm, there's still more. You didn't close the door properly, so I didn't secretly add the key." Of course, this was a lie.
Xia Ying was amused by the way he raised her hand, and swore. She just looked at him like that, and the two of them looked at each other quietly.
Just as Xia Ying was about to turn around and see how the soup was, Zhong Zhen walked over quickly and grabbed her arm. When Xia Ying turned her head, she was pressed between the fridge and his chest.
The two were extremely close, so when Zhong Zhen leaned against Xia Ying and saw her stupefied expression, her mood became better and better. He whispered, "Can I?"
Xia Ying was speechless, at a time like this, how was she supposed to answer such a question? Zhong Zhen's smile became wider and wider. Xia Ying was both embarrassed and angry, but a second before Xia Ying pushed him away, she seriously kissed him.
His lips were very soft, this was Xia Ying's last thought.
Zhong Zhen thought so too. It was an indescribable beauty. He patiently twisted and turned his lips, waiting for her to fall limply into his embrace before he broke her teeth.
His eyes were as clear as the stars he had seen on the roof that night. "My reward, thank you."
Xia Ying's face turned red, she pushed him away and went to get the soup. Zhong Zhen hugged her from behind, and after seeing her struggle free, he then laughed lowly, "Sleeve sleeve." Then he reached out and rolled up her sleeve.
"Now, retreat." Xia Ying ordered in a strong tone. Zhong Zhen could only listen to her obediently this time.
As she ate, Xia Ying could still feel her heart beating rapidly.
"I can't believe it. This is the first time I've cooked." Zhong Zhen exaggeratedly picked up the bean sprout and was about to praise it. Being glared at by Xia Ying, he hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.
Taste, this taste... Seeing Zhong Zhen's indescribable change in expression, Xia Ying roughly knew the result of cooking for the first time.
"Is it bad?"
Zhong Zhen quickly swallowed it down and laughed, "No, it's very delicious. Let me try this meat again. The color is very beautiful, so the taste is definitely not bad. "
As if facing death, Zhong Zhen stuffed the meat into his mouth and chewed it a few times, then chewed it again and again, trying his best to control his expression. "Hur Hur Hur, you're very chewy and grinding your teeth."
Xia Ying looked at him, "Forget it, stop eating!"
"No, it's delicious, really."
Zhong Zhen had nearly finished all of the last table's food. No matter how cold and proud Xia Ying was, he was still warm to the point of turning the table into water. What was there to be unsatisfied about having to spend the rest of her life with such a person?
After dinner, the two of them holed up on the sofa and watched TV. Xia Ying turned around to see that Zhong Zhen had already fallen asleep with his arms crossed, his head tilted to the side.
Xia Ying went to the bedroom and took a blanket, covering Zhong Zhen's body, and laid on the side quietly while looking at him. It must be hard on him to go to work, how could he still be running around like this? He was already moved to such a state of confusion by him, Xia Ying asked herself in her heart, just what should she do.
The boring variety was shown on TV. The two of them were sitting on the sofa. Such an ordinary life was both real and precious. Anyway, at this moment, Xia Ying felt the same.
