Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 358 The force is getting higher

Xia Guoqiang looked at Li Weidong flattered. He didn't expect that such a thing could happen to him, but he knew his own weight and could do something specific. It was too difficult to do this kind of work.

"Chairman, you are really good at joking, so I can run errands for you. What else can I do? Besides, I don't understand these things!" Xia Guoqiang hurriedly waved his hand.

"Who said you have to know how to do it? We have just interviewed people who know how to do it. If there are not enough people, we will recruit them again. They know the business. You just need to know how to manage people. I still have the general direction!"

"It still doesn't work. How can I take care of this? This is more than one billion in funds, and the loss is not small if there is a mistake. It's better for you to do it. I will still run errands for you!" Xia Guoqiang was not confident.

"Lao Xia, I have seen your work these days, especially when I was away. Everything you did was good, very detailed and organized!"

"I am a shareholder and you are the general manager. I am standing behind you. What are you afraid of? This matter has been settled. Let's hurry up and start working!"

Xia Guoqiang could only agree. The leader had said so. It would be unwise to refuse any more. Moreover, Li Weidong was right. The top leader of the company may not necessarily be proficient in business.

It’s not obvious yet. The leaders of later generations of state-owned enterprises were transferred here and there. Their resumes were all irrelevant, and even spanned a wide range, but they were still able to run the company well.

This is his ability. Li Weidong believes that Xia Guoqiang also has this ability. He can do the work of Xinsheng Holdings in a very orderly manner, and there will be no problem in doing other things.

And he also has other means, such as asking Ge Guoliang and Zhao Dongsheng to hire several experienced technicians and team leaders in Skoda, so that they don't need to do much to set up the air first.

Although his patriotism makes him not want to admit that the Chinese people are inferior, this is the case in some aspects. In China, only those who do not do well in school will be told by their parents, "Learn a trade, so that you can make a living in the future."

Those who repair cars make more money than those who drive cars, but in terms of social status, those who drive cars are more respectable than those who repair cars. Tightening screws in the factory until they are covered in grease is not respectable in any way.

This is the work of an idea that is deeply rooted in our bones. The distinction between workers and cadres, working in the workshop and working in the workshop. As long as there is such a saying, the fundamental problem will still exist.

"Also, let the new Mr. Xu be responsible for the financial supervision, assessment and asset management department. You will be responsible for strategic investment and other work first!" Li Weidong thought for a while and said.

Xu Dehai has been appointed as deputy general manager. He is still familiar with the work process and has not officially started working yet. However, more than a week has passed and it is time to start performing his job responsibilities.

"Okay, I will hand over to him!" Xia Guoqiang had no objection to this. He had no say in the division of labor, and Li Weidong did not need to ask for his opinion.

Not to mention that departments such as finance and supervision were handed over to Xu Dehai, even if other departments were handed over to him, Xia Guoqiang could not have any opinions. This was Li Weidong's own company, so he said so.

"Dachun is getting married the day after tomorrow. Have you received the invitation? I heard it was very big?" Li Weidong picked up the gold-plated invitation on the side of the table and took a look at it, and asked curiously.

For this wedding, Liu Dachun returned to Qizhou a week in advance and sent the invitation to Li Weidong immediately. Li Weidong was afraid that he would forget to put it on the table.

He heard Doubian mention it, and hundreds of invitations were sent out, which showed that the wedding was quite a big deal.

"I received it, I received it a few days ago. Several ministers of the company have received it, including Mr. Xu, and several company executives have also asked for leave!"

"I heard that sixty-six wedding cars were used. This is quite a big battle. What do you mean?" Xia Guoqiang said with a smile, and then asked doubtfully.

He didn't know what Li Weidong meant and whether he thought it was a waste. Now he couldn't figure out Li Weidong's thoughts and had to go through every sentence in his mind two or three times.

"What I mean? It's a pity that this wedding is so talented, we won't have that chance!"

Li Weidong put down the invitation and said that he sincerely envied Liu Dachun. Giving his wife a grand wedding could not be considered a waste in any way. Of course, if it was purely to attract money, that would be another matter.

"Let the union send a congratulatory gift in the name of the company and make this a norm. From now on, all employees of the company will have to express it when they get married, have children or have birthdays. It doesn't matter how much. This is to show the emotional care of our company!"

"Well, we have been negligent in this regard. I will ask the union to implement this matter immediately!" Xia Guoqiang agreed. In fact, he had already had this idea, after all, he had enjoyed it within the system.

But this is Li Weidong's company, not a state-owned unit. For this kind of thing, spending money to make employees happy has to be done by the boss. You can't spend the boss' money to build your own character.

Liu Dachun's wedding ceremony was not held at home, but at the Four Seasons Hotel. Young people yearn for ceremonies that combine Chinese and Western styles, and only hotels can have such an occasion.

Li Weidong arrived neither early nor late. Around 10 o'clock, the wedding car to greet the bride was still circling on the road, but many guests had already gathered in front of the hotel.

When Li Weidong got off the car, he saw the crowd at the door was full of people. Fortunately, there were many people who knew Li Weidong, and there was also a wedding manager who was specially responsible for welcoming them.

Chen Gu had already been strolling at the door to greet the guests. He was Liu Dachun's eldest brother in the world and had a high status in the world. It was most appropriate for him to stand at the door and act as the receptionist for Liu Dachun.

"Chairman, you are here!" Chen Gu greeted him attentively, and Liu Dachun's father laughed beside him.

"Uncle and aunt, congratulations, congratulations, you will get a wife this year and a grandson next year!" Li Weidong said with a smile to Liu Dachun's parents, congratulations on their addition.

Marriage is a happy event, and those who marry a daughter-in-law will also marry a daughter-in-law. Although they are all happy events, the smile on the face of the daughter-in-law is a bit forced, while the smile on the face of the daughter-in-law can reach the ears.

Liu Dachun's parents were like this at this time. In the past few years, their son was a little gangster and worried every day. He thought it would be good to marry a daughter-in-law in this life, and the girl from the Qin family could only think about it.

How can a serious family marry their daughter to such a gangster? If he doesn't do his job every day, it will be a problem for him to live in the future. He is simply a pit of fire.

But all this started to change three years ago. I used to be idle on the street and hang out on the streets every day. Suddenly I became busy, and sometimes I would be homeless for a whole month.

Liu's father was originally very scared, worried that Liu Dachun would get into trouble outside and hide in trouble. Later, he heard that he was doing business with others and could bring out a lot of cash.

Seeing so much money, Liu's father became even more scared. What kind of business can be so profitable? Businesses that make big money are written in the criminal law. Isn't this something illegal?

Later, I heard that she was a college student, and I was relieved. College students would definitely not do anything illegal. College students are like archways these days.

Later, he could no longer control his son and wanted to fly. This was a helpless happiness. When his son grew up, he could earn money to support his family and even support them.

Children can establish themselves in society, which means that their tasks have been completed, but it also means that from then on, when the children are full-fledged, they no longer need their care and start to stay away from them.

But this step will eventually come, and it's better to be one step early than one step late, so they are very grateful to Li Weidong, who made this day come early.

"Chairman Li, you have so many things to do, you forget to eat and sleep, how can you have time to attend Quanzi's wedding? Thank you, thank you, please come in, please come in!" Father Liu learned a lot for today, but he still had some bumps when he said it.

Especially when facing Li Weidong, they heard so much from Liu Dachun that if it weren't for the real person right in front of them, he would have thought it was a character in a drama.

"Uncle and auntie, Dachun has helped me a lot. It's right for me to come. You guys are busy, I'll go up first!"

Li Weidong was a little embarrassed after hearing this, feeling that this was a cruel irony on him. Who doesn't know that he is a famous hands-off shopkeeper, and how can he be described as a common man like him?

Cheng Kui took Li Weidong up the stairs. It was a private room that Li Weidong often used. It was very large and had a row of sofas and coffee tables against the wall for guests to rest, drink tea and have fun before meals.

"Brother, you have some tea and a rest. Dachun will pick up the bride later and we'll go down again!" Cheng Kui said flatteringly, his fat face trembling.

"It's okay for you. Don't you need to go down and help greet me?" Li Weidong sat on the sofa, and his secretary and bodyguard also sat at the table next to them, watching Cheng Kui busy making water and pouring tea.

"Brother, my task today is to serve you tea and water, I don't have to do anything else!" Cheng Kui said cheerfully.

"Come on, today is Dachun's big day. Go and see if there is anything you can help with. We don't need to be so polite!" Li Weidong shook his head and said.

It was originally a very plain sentence, but after hearing it, Cheng Kui felt warm in his heart. It was not easy for Li Weidong to treat him as one of his own.

"Brother, I'm really fine. When we came up, there were so many people down there, so we didn't delay anything!"

As soon as Cheng Kui finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Several people walked in. Li Weidong shook his head when he saw it. This room was for a wedding. It was simply a company party!

With Li Weidong here, this place was destined to be a place full of laughter and flattery. Fortunately, it didn't last long, and a horse boy came up and said that the bride was here.

After a few people got out, they happened to see the wedding car parked at the main entrance of the hotel. There were two wedding brides greeting the bride, carrying a tray with a stack of blue banknotes in it.

This kind of ceremony that combines Chinese and Western seems a bit nondescript. According to Chinese weddings, how to send off, how to welcome, who greets and who receives, there can be no mistakes, otherwise it will be unlucky.

But after the reception, the ceremony was mostly in Western style. Fortunately, there was a rehearsal, otherwise it would have been a mess.

It's sad to think about it. Even a wedding requires a rehearsal. The bride and groom are completely actors and props in the hands of the master of ceremonies. What's the point of this wedding?

"Groom, I'm curious, why do you keep looking at that table? Is there your ex-girlfriend on that table?" the master of ceremonies pointed to the table where Li Weidong was sitting and asked.

Of course, the emcee's question silenced the audience, but they burst into laughter when they saw where the emcee was pointing.

Li Weidong sat in the main seat, and next to him sat Zheng Sijing, Xia Guoqiang, Xu Dehai, Song Guofeng, Chen Gu, Huo Rui, Cheng Kui, Guo Huai, Ma Jun and other top leaders or executives of these companies.

It’s all men, not a single woman, and the ex-girlfriend is just a joke.

Standing next to Liu Dachun, Doubian, who was dressed like a dog as a groomsman, wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was worried about Liu Dachun. This was not part of the rehearsal in advance.

"My partner and I are childhood sweethearts, and we have no exes!" Liu Dachun said decisively, and the audience burst into laughter again.

"Oh, it turns out that you fell in love early. Did you start it in elementary school or middle school? Do your teachers and parents know about it? Is there someone more important to you at that table?"

The emcee seemed to feel that her mission could not be considered completed unless she committed suicide, and asked several questions in succession. This is a emcee who is responsible for making fun of people.

"My brother is sitting at that table. If it weren't for him, where would I be today? He is a leader and a teacher!" Liu Dachun did not dare to say anything else and only answered the last question.

"The groom seems unwilling to talk about his premature love. He may be afraid of teaching the children present. We will not pursue this issue. But let's ask the groom's teacher to say a few blessings to the bride and groom."

The audience roared with laughter again. The people next to Li Weidong looked the most steady, but the booing was the most lively, which also made the surrounding tables lively.

Li Weidong stood up and wanted to speak, but the emcee came over and pulled Li Weidong to the stage to say a few words. If he hadn't seen the emcee's good looks and gentle hands, Li Weidong couldn't let her pull him.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the wedding of Dachun and Xiaolu. Just now Dachun said that they were childhood sweethearts. I was immediately envious. This is probably the most beautiful love story in the world!"

"From childhood sweethearts to marriage sounds like a fairy tale, but fairy tales are all lies, so this step is not easy, but it may be even more difficult in the future."

The people in the audience laughed loudly at first, then listened quietly after hearing what Li Weidong said was not easy.

"So you must be humble, tolerant, understanding, trusting, cherishing, and kind to each other. You must separate love from daily necessities. When love becomes family, then that is love!"

"There is a saying in the Diamond Sutra: The Buddha said that the world is not the world, so it is called the world. The same is true for husband and wife. They are husband and wife, but they are not husband and wife, so they are husband and wife!"

Li Weidong finished speaking, but the elegance below was silent. Li Weidong suddenly felt that he was about to suffer. There seemed to be no market for such bad words in the future, and he was going to be embarrassed!

The performance was so high that the audience couldn't keep up!

Fortunately, someone still gave Li Weidong face. The emcee was a beautiful TV host, but instead of a vase, she still had two brushes, otherwise Liu Dachun wouldn't have invited her over.

At this time, she looked at Li Weidong with a starry look in her eyes, "Just now the groom said that this is his guide and teacher. I was still puzzled. When he said this, he was indeed an expert. This sounds unusual!"

The people below began to applaud, and Li Weidong took the opportunity to run off the stage and swore in his heart that he would never do such a thing again. He was asked to say a few blessings, but if he said no, it was over. He had to show off.

"A happy marriage will last a long time, and a baby will be born soon!" Such words are so easy to understand and so festive. It would be really embarrassing if the whole thing is so provocative.

"Chairman, what you said is really wise. It not only expresses the true meaning of husband and wife, but also has the same purpose as Wang Guowei's triple realm. It is really beneficial!" Xu Dehai was the first to flatter me.

Li Weidong finally felt at ease. People who can become high-ranking officials are different. There are still people who can understand him and don't try to show off to him. I don't know if this is the leakage of the king's domineering spirit, attracting countless heroes.

Bow your head and accept it.
