Chapter 6： Sleepless

Chapter 6

At the dinner table, Lorraine looked at his father for a while, and his mother for a while, but there was not much food in the bowl.

"Xiaolin, what's the matter today? What do you always stare at your parents? Don't eat?" Mother Li Hong picked up a piece of chicken and put it in Lorraine's rice bowl, asking strangely.

Father Luo Jianrong also felt that Lorraine was a little strange today, and raised his head to look at Lorraine.

Lorraine realized his gaffe, he hehe smiled: "Parents, you have only come back so long in the field, doesn't my son miss you? I want to see more."

Yo?

Luo's mother and Luo's father were both taken aback. What happened today? With such a sweet mouth, is it their stubborn and exaggerated prodigal?

After a short pause, Luo's mother made a sudden realization: "Hehe, brat, you don't have anything to do with your hospitality, is there any new motorcycle you have fancy?"

Lorraine froze for a moment, then smiled, thinking about it, this age really likes motorcycles. Of course, this is also influenced by those gangsters.

"Dad, Mom. You misunderstood." Lorraine shook his hand and said seriously, "I know that my son has broken your hearts over the years. Although you are not often at home, you must be very worried about me. I can’t eat well and don’t dress well, and I’m worried that I’ll get mixed up with the little scoundrels in the society. I used to complain that you were busy with business in other places, regardless of me. But now my son wants to understand, the business outside is sure It’s hard to walk away. For example, today, you must have turned away a lot of business matters before you can go home for a day or two just to see me, right?"

These words came from the bottom of my heart. Lorraine in the last life wanted to say these words of gratitude to his parents face to face, but unfortunately, there was no chance.

Luo's mother and Luo's father looked at each other for a moment, but they were more moved and relieved. For a while, the dinner table was quiet.

After a long time of silence, Father Luo slowly put down the tableware and stared at Lorraine's eyes without saying a word.

Lorraine gently greeted him, his eyes full of gratitude to his father, and the fortitude and determination that a man should belong to a son.

Finally, the serious Father Luo showed a relieved smile, turned his head and waved his hand to Mother Luo: "Go and get the bottle of good wine in my study. I will have a drink with Xiaolin today."

"Eh? This..." Mother Luo was stunned. She usually strictly forbids Lorraine from drinking alcohol. Why did the harshest husband propose to drink alcohol today?

"Hey, mom, sit down, I'll get it." Lorraine stood up with a smile and ran into his father's study.

After a few casual drinks, Lorraine chatted with his father.

In my impression, my father always looked majestic, but tonight, he kept smiling at himself. Between the cups, Lorraine made it clear that he would study hard in the future, and his attitude of no longer fooling around, made his parents feel relieved from ear to ear.

"Dad, how is the company's earnings recently?" Lorraine substituted a sentence into the topic.

Father Luo was taken aback by the question, but still smiled: "Xiao Lin, your task now is to study hard. You don't need to worry about company affairs."

Mother Luo disagreed when she heard this, and patted her father on the shoulder: "It's rare to be so happy today. If the child wants to care about the company, you can talk about it. Besides, the child will have to take over the company sooner or later. Isn't it all the same?"

Father Luo frowned slightly, looking at Lorraine looking at him expectantly, and sighed slightly: "Recently, the company's revenue has declined slightly, but this kind of fluctuation is common and not worth mentioning."

"It's not worth mentioning?" Mother Luo gave Luo father a blank look. "I said Lao Luo, what sloppy fights with my children? Xiaolin is now sensible. Just talk about some things."

Seeing Father Luo's slightly solemn expression, Lorraine knew that his worries were indeed correct.

"Dad, has it been difficult to do business in other provinces recently?"

Father Luo paused, then met Lorraine's concerned eyes and nodded.

Lorraine frowned slightly: "It shouldn't be, now the level of consumption in the mainland is soaring. Our main business in other provinces is also the hotel leisure and entertainment industry. After so many years, the network established in various locations in other provinces is also very reliable and the reputation is good. Overall. The data shows that the entire entertainment industry is on the rise, and we are an old brand for so many years, so the revenue growth is not big, but if it is going to decline, it is a bit strange, right?"

Question by question, layer by layer, little by little analysis, Zhangkou made a general outlook on the current prospects of the entertainment and leisure industry, highlighting the strangeness of the current decline in the income of Rockwell.

Luo Jianrong's expression changed a few times, and he glanced at Li Hong in surprise.

Obviously, both Luo's father and Luo's mother were "stunned" by the son who was so talkative.

Mother Li Hong stretched out her hand and touched Lorraine's forehead: "This kid, what's wrong with this guy? I'm sick?"

"Nonsense." Luo Jianrong stopped Li Hong this time. "My son analyzed every situation thoroughly, without leaking. Is this something you can say when you are sick? I think we have been away from home for two months. When my son grew up, he suddenly got the hang of it."

Fresh, his father, who has always cherished words like gold, opened his mouth to praise himself.

Luo Jianrong is not a small figure in the business world, so his mind is so powerful, he can more or less guess Lorraine's purpose after his brain is turned.

"Son, what's the matter? After drinking a few glasses of wine with my father, I want to get something from my mouth?"

Seeing his father open up to himself like this, talking like a friend, Lorraine felt warm in his heart, and he smiled: "Dad, really, my son is also worried. Recently you have been in the field for longer and longer, I Guess there must be a lot of tricky things. Mom is right. In the future, I will have to inherit our family business and worry about business matters a day earlier. It’s not superfluous."

Luo Jianrong slowly put away his smile and nodded approvingly: "Xiao Lin, I am very pleased that you have grown up. However, now is the time for you to study. If you really want to worry about the company, then give it to I was admitted to a type of undergraduate university in Yenching. It didn’t take long. You will take the college entrance examination in one year. Look, how about this?"

"Yenjing?..." Lorraine frowned slightly, "Dad, do you want to open the hotel and entertainment industry to Yanjing? That's the capital city. The market is already saturated. It's not a good trip."

"What's the rush? There's still a year left." Luo Jianrong laughed, "Okay, it's settled, come on, after drinking this cup, give me a bath and go to bed quickly, tomorrow you have to In class, you won’t be able to enter Yanjing's first-class university after one year. It depends on your mother who doesn’t clean up you!"

Li Hong happily closed his mouth from ear to ear, helping out, "That is, I can't get into a good university, so my pocket money is only 100 a month!"

"Ah...Don't!" Lorraine rolled his eyes.

After taking a bath and sleeping, Lorraine turned off the bedside lamp, resting his hands, and moonlight streaming in from the window.

The communication with my parents went smoothly today and I am very happy. Not only did they stop worrying about themselves, but also made clear their own attitude. More importantly, Lorraine saw a message from his father Luo Jianrong's words and deeds—the company did indeed have some problems.

However, it is too unrealistic to want my father to agree to let himself intervene in the company now.

How to do? Watching the company's problems escalate? Of course not, Lorraine had already thought about it-he wanted to start his own business, and his goal was to reach out to Yanjing before his father.

The company's problem broke out in Yanjing, which also shows that the crux of the problem lies in Yanjing. It is further speculated that this is directly related to Pan Jiajun's Pan Group! In 2008, the China Merchants Association and Pan Jiajun made enemies. It was just a fuse. As a foreign company entering the capital, the resistance encountered by the Luo family will never be that simple. There may even be commercial espionage inside the company. Although these are speculations, they must be prevented. The most important point is that if you want to fight against the behemoth of the Pan Group, you must have a secret backing behind it, or you need a hole card that never shows up on the surface.

Lorraine knew that his first task was to fill the vacancy in Rockwell's business. Three years should be enough!

Why do you want to say Lorraine?

With the courage and mind of his two lives, and the foresight of the unknown obstacles in the future!

Lorraine, who has experienced ups and downs in his previous life, can understand that there is no absolute right and wrong in this world. If you want to be fair, you must first strengthen yourself, and have the ability and conditions to be qualified to talk about fairness, and even control fairness!

In the darkness, under Lorraine's calm and tender face, there was a strong and even wild heart hidden!

Tossing about on the bed and unable to sleep, Lorraine sat up and shook his head helplessly.

In this era, I haven't started smoking, but Lorraine's current soul, but a twenty-year old smoker, a cigarette before going to bed, this bad habit is hard to change for a while.

So Lorraine carefully put on clothes and shoes, took the wallet and mobile phone, and quietly left the house, glanced at the wall clock time, it was already more than 2 o'clock in the morning.

Walking out of the community, Lorraine had a whim, and with a wave of his hand, he stopped a taxi from getting in.

"Master, go to a street in the night market."

A street in the night market is a street with chaotic law and order, which is why it was changed to a pedestrian street five years later. On this street, food stalls, local food stalls, barbecues, restaurants, bars, dance halls, shampoos, pedicures, etc. abound. According to statistics from professionals, there are 38 incidents of violence in average a month Conflict incidents, and most of the entertainment and leisure places here have more or less special services. This is an open secret in Zhengzhou.

Let's miss it. When he was young, Lorraine didn't spend much time there. Maybe, there were unexpected gains, right?
