…
In the chairman's office of Future Fund, Lu Yiming was holding a newspaper, reading it with a smile on his face, his legs crossed in the air swaying from side to side, looking extremely cocky.
However, Li Yiwen, who was sitting next to him, did not look very good.
In fact, he didn't look very good when he came back from the party last night.
After thinking for a whole night, Li Yiwen was about to say something when he heard footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the glass door.
Then, the new secretary, Annie, walked into the office with a stack of newspapers in her arms, twisting her slender waist gracefully, and said in a coquettish voice, "Mr. Lu, I have bought all the newspapers you requested."
Lu Yiming raised his eyelids and glanced at Annie's bottomless cleavage, then nodded contentedly: "Well, well done, your salary will be doubled this month."
Annie was immediately overjoyed and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Li Yiwen was speechless. After Annie left, he asked quietly, "What's wrong with this Annie? She has no education, no ability, and besides her pretty face and 36D, she has almost nothing to offer. Why did you invite such a pretty girl back? It can't be just because she's pretty, right?"
Lu Yiming curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "Now the Future Fund is full of Hong Kong people from top to bottom, and they all graduated from prestigious universities and have outstanding abilities. Do you think they will be convinced by me? Even if they are convinced now, will they always be convinced in the future?"
Li Yiwen felt like he knew something, but he didn't know exactly how this matter related to Annie.
"so?"
Lu Yiming said, "It is precisely because she is nothing that she can only cling to me to get this job with preferential treatment. With her as a tip-off, at least I will know everything about the company. You have to know that I will be going back to the mainland to study soon, and you can't stay here every day, right? After all, we still have a lot of things to do."
After listening to this, Li Yiwen was amazed at Lu Yiming's little tricks and couldn't help but say, "I really don't know where you learned these tricks from, little guy."
Lu Yiming said disdainfully: "You really underestimate young people. Although school is an ivory tower, you can still learn a lot. For example, my head teacher Zhu Hanwen secretly arranged two students who are usually low-key to be responsible for reporting on others."
Li Yiwen was shocked when he heard this: "I'm just in high school, but you're making it sound like a spy movie? Is it really that serious?"
After chatting about gossip, he picked up a newspaper on the table and looked at the photo of Li Chaoren and Lu Yiming shaking hands on the front page. He couldn't help but sigh again: "The paparazzi in Hong Kong are really omnipresent. They can even sneak into high-end gatherings to take pictures. But isn't this article too shameless? It makes it seem like you are Li Chaoren's long-lost biological son. And who is the wicked guy who came up with these headlines? Isn't this obviously a lie?"
"Cough, cough, cough..." The coffee that Lu Yiming had just poured into his mouth rushed into his trachea, and he coughed so hard that tears came out.
Li Yiwen asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Are you catching a cold? The temperature hasn't dropped sharply recently..."
Lu Yiming waved his hands, leaning forward on the table, his tone a little strange: "No... ahem..."
The phone on the table rang. Lu Yiming coughed so hard that he didn't have the strength to pick up the receiver, so he had to press the speakerphone button.
"Hello?"
On the other end of the phone, a man said in an excited voice: "Boss, I'm Hu Donghua, the editor-in-chief of Donghua Newspaper. The tips you gave us are so effective. The sales of the newspaper have exploded today!"
Lu Yiming coughed a few more times, then encouraged: "Keep up the good work..."
Li Yiwen finally figured it out at this time. He widened his eyes and looked at Lu Yiming with an incredible expression: "Did you arrange all this?"
My goodness, the evil guy is right next to me?
Lu Yiming recovered his breath and said directly without hiding anything: "Yes. I wrote the report myself and arranged for someone to take the pictures."
"My goodness, how come I didn't know this?"
The look in Li Yiwen's eyes when he looked at Lu Yiming became more and more strange.
During the time in Hong Kong, he and Lu Yiming were almost inseparable, and he didn't even know that Lu Yiming was up to so many tricks!
"Besides, what if you do these little tricks in front of Li Chaoren and he finds out? With his status, if he gets angry, our future capital will suffer a devastating disaster."
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Don't worry, so many newspapers have been published and distributed, I guess Li Chaoren already knows about it."
Li Yiwen got anxious when he heard this: "You are really too much of a sleight of hand. Li Chaoren, Li Chaoren, do you know why he is called Li Chaoren? It's because he has great power. What you did is indeed let everyone in Hong Kong know you, but you also succeeded in angering Li Chaoren! How can you get away with playing tricks on him like this?"
Lu Yiming said with a smile: "I just want to step on Li Chaoren's shoulders to get to the top, what can he do to me?"
"You? Stepped on him to get to the top?"
Li Yiwen felt as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Li Chaoren's influence in Hong Kong is no joke. He controls a giant enterprise like Hutchison Whampoa, with a market value of more than 400 billion yuan, ranking third in Hong Kong.
The only ones that can rank ahead of Hutchison Whampoa are HSBC and Telecom!
In addition, Cheung Kong Industries ranked fifth, Hong Kong Electric ranked eleventh, Cheung Kong Infrastructure ranked eighteenth, and various small and medium-sized enterprises in which these giant companies have shares and holdings, together form the huge Cheung Kong Group, which controls assets worth more than one trillion!
This figure even exceeds Hong Kong’s GDP in 1997!
That’s why there is a rumor in the market that Hong Kong is the Li family’s city.
In fact, just before the turn of the century in 2000, when British capital withdrew from Hong Kong, Li Chaoren's second son, Li Kai, borrowed 180 billion yuan to acquire Hong Kong Telecom, the fourth-ranked company in Hong Kong, and then renamed it PCCW.
In a sense, all Hong Kong people, even if they want to "say a word", have to pay money to the Li family first.
What does arrogance mean?
This is arrogance.
Can you just step on this kind of shoulder?
