Chapter 457 You are my rose

Wu Shihong became the general manager of Microsoft's Xiaguo headquarters in 1997. In just seven months, she achieved 130% of the annual sales, a true business elite. She was called the working queen by the media.

Her next in command was the general manager of Microsoft's Xiaguo headquarters, and was known as the working emperor.

Of course, these are all later stories, so let’s leave them aside for now.

Wu Shihong saw Zhuang Zhizhong in the crowd and immediately said, "Zhuang Zhizhong!"

When Zhuang Zhizhong heard Wu Shihong's voice, he was frightened. He could hear the displeasure in Wu Shihong's tone.

Zhuang Zhizhong, who had a proud face just now, now changed his face. He came to Wu Shihong like a lackey and respectfully called out, "Hello, Mr. Wu."

Wu Shihong winked at the people behind Zhuang Zhizhong and asked, "What's going on? Who are these people?"

The company has rules and regulations, and no outsiders are allowed to enter.

However, Zhuang Zhizhong had a quick mind and quickly came up with an excuse.

"Mr. Wu, these are my juniors from Shuimu University, and they are all very talented. They are about to graduate and they admire Microsoft very much, so I took the initiative to bring them to the company for a tour. Mr. Wu, don't worry, I will only take them around the lobby and definitely not to the work area."

Zhuang Zhizhong usually works hard, and because he is good at networking, he is also popular in the company. After hearing what Zhuang Zhizhong said, Wu Shihong nodded slightly and said, "Yes, the company does need fresh blood. If there are good ones, we can select the best ones. It's rare that you care so much about the company. Keep up the good work. Microsoft will never reject true geniuses. As long as they have enough talent and ability, we at Microsoft will accept them."

“Okay…Okay.”

Zhuang Zhizhong was so excited to receive Wu Shihong's praise that his face turned red, he even stuttered while speaking, and he felt as if every bone in his body had become lighter.

When Wu Shihong and Zhuang Zhizhong were talking, Zhuang Zhizhong's younger classmates recognized Wu Shihong at once.

"Is this Mr. Wu? He looks so young."

“I’ve seen her on TV and in magazines!”

"Mr. Wu is a well-known figure in the business world. He often appears on TV and in financial magazines . I didn't expect that I would actually see him in person today."

For ordinary people, this is the "noble person" who can influence their life destiny!

It’s amazing that Zhuang Zhizhong can talk to a big shot like Wu Shihong!

Several young people were very much looking forward to it.

If I can chat and laugh with big shots like Mr. Wu like Senior Zhuang after I graduate from university, I will be satisfied!

A junior looked at Lu Yiming with a proud look on his face: "Watch carefully, learn well, what a workplace elite should look like. If you can learn one tenth of what Senior Zhuang has, you will benefit from it throughout your life. You still don't want to work? If you don't work hard, you won't even have the opportunity to work!"

Lu Yiming did not reply, because he did not know what he should say. After all, the truth always hurts people, and he did not want to attack these fallen people of the motherland.

At this moment, Wu Shihong, who had finished talking with Zhuang Zhizhong and was about to leave, saw Lu Yiming out of the corner of his eye and was stunned.

She stepped on high heels and walked quickly to Lu Yiming. She bent down slightly and glanced at Lu Yiming from the side. Then a shocked expression appeared on her face. She asked cautiously, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Lu?"

Seeing this scene, Zhuang Zhizhong’s eyes almost popped out.

What's going on?

How did Mr. Wu treat this little brat...

The junior student who just asked Lu Yiming to watch him carefully and study hard now has a green face.

The others were so frightened that they dared not breathe.

Lu Yiming was a little surprised: "Huh? You recognize me?"

Wu Shihong smiled and said, "A few months ago, during the ACM International College Programming Contest, I went to the headquarters to report on my work and had the honor of meeting Mr. Lu."

Lu Yiming blinked, but had no impression of it at all.

After all, he was busy talking business with Bill Gates at the time, so how could he pay attention to the followers and subordinates around him?

Wu Shihong, on the other hand, knew very well that the young man in front of him was the business partner of his immediate boss, so when he stood in front of Lu Yiming, he did not dare to put on airs.

"I didn't pay attention to this just now. It's really a sin. Mr. Lu came and didn't inform me in advance. Now I am not prepared at all. It's really negligent."

Lu Yiming smiled casually and said, "Boss Wu, you are too polite. They said they wanted to come for a visit, so I followed them. What do you need to prepare?"

Wu Shihong said solemnly, "Mr. Lu, you can't say that. Since you are here, you must let me play the role of host this time. Otherwise, I will have a hard time explaining myself if Mr. Gates asks about it one day. So, I will host a few company executives tonight and have dinner with them. Mr. Lu, please do me the honor."

"Really, don't bother..."

What Lu Yiming disliked most was having dinner with people from these companies or units. They talked in a roundabout way and there was drinking culture all day long, which was very annoying.

"How can this be called trouble? It is a great honor for us to have President Lu come to inspect our work. It is our honor to invite President Lu to dinner."

How could Wu Shihong dare to let Lu Yiming go? If Bill Gates knew that Lu Yiming came to Microsoft for a visit and didn't even get a meal, would she still be the general manager?

She was able to achieve 130% of the annual sales within seven months of joining Microsoft, and she was also very considerate in terms of interpersonal relationships.

Lu Yiming said to Shi Qingxue: "Why don't we have a meal with Mr. Wu and the others?"

Shi Qingxue said hurriedly: "Okay."

She didn't want to go back to Gu Xiaoyun's house for dinner at all, especially when she thought that Gu Xiaoyun might ask her to stay overnight, she felt terrified.

Now that the general manager of Microsoft is treating us to a dinner, Gu Xiaoyun will have nothing to say, right?

Seeing Lu Yiming chatting and laughing with Wu Shihong, and even seeing Wu Shihong putting himself in a humble position, Zhuang Zhizhong and others were stunned.

What kind of divine development is this?

Who is this young man?

As for Gu Xiaoyun's suggestion to take Shi Qingxue back for dinner, Zhuang Zhizhong had already forgotten about it - even if he still remembered it, he didn't dare to say it. To compete with his general manager for customers, isn't that asking for too much?

Since Shi Qingxue agreed to have dinner with Wu Shihong, Lu Yiming naturally would not object and immediately said, "Then I will bother Mr. Wu tonight."

Wu Shihong smiled and said, "Mr. Lu is so polite. Well, I still have a little work to do here. I'll ask someone to come over and walk around with you, and then we'll go eat."

Lu Yiming readily agreed and said, "Okay."

Wu Shihong then said to Zhuang Zhizhong, "Xiao Zhuang, after you have shown your juniors around, come over here too. You young people all look very talented, and you are welcome to apply for jobs after you graduate."

Zhuang Zhizhong couldn't help but glance at Lu Yiming, swallowed, and felt bitter in his mouth.

"OK."

Afterwards, Wu Shihong called a man named Tang Jun and took Lu Yiming and Shi Qingxue to visit, and they walked through the core areas of the park.

Zhuang Zhizhong naturally had no right to come along, so he could only take those younger classmates for a walk outside.

In fact, including Zhuang Zhizhong, none of them were in any mood.

"Brother Zhuang, who is this young man?"

"Yes, Senior, this President Wu is a prominent figure, why is she so humble to this young man?"

Several people felt their cheeks burning when they recalled how they had just lectured Lu Yiming in a condescending tone.

Zhuang Zhizhong said depressedly: "How should I know? He claimed to be my cousin's classmate, and I thought he was my cousin's licker."

At this time, a man saw several newspapers and magazines on the bookshelf. One of the newspapers had a portrait of Lu Yiming. He picked up the newspaper and took a look. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, this guy is so powerful?"

"Let me see."

"Oh my god, is this guy so awesome?"

These newspapers and magazines are naturally all about Microsoft, but Lu Yiming also has a lot of roles in the magazines and newspapers about Microsoft.

At this time, everyone finally understood who Lu Yiming was.

After everyone was surprised, more of them were sighing. It was another big shot in the news, a real billionaire. They had never thought that they would meet him in real life.

Zhuang Zhizhong was in a terrible mood. After learning about Lu Yiming's true identity, he knew that it was useless no matter what he did. There was no point in trying to steal her girl.

If he were a woman, he would want to marry a rich man like Lu Yiming.

A schoolgirl saw that Zhuang Zhizhong looked a little unhappy, and immediately asked with concern: "Senior, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhuang Zhizhong forced a smile and said, "It's okay. Maybe I got stuck in my teeth when I drank some cold water just now. I'll be fine after a rest. Are you done with the tour? Go back to study after the tour. You can come and apply for the job after you graduate."

After sending everyone away, Zhuang Zhizhong felt extremely annoyed when he thought about having to serve Lu Yiming drinks with a smile on his face.

Zhuang Zhizhong felt confused throughout the entire dinner. Every time he toasted Lu Yiming, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

After finally making it home, Zhuang Zhizhong collapsed on the sofa.

Seeing Zhuang Zhizhong coming back, Gu Xiaoyun hurriedly asked, "You're back? You called and said you guys had dinner out. How was it? Did you leave a good impression on Shi Qingxue? When can I hold my grandson?"

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned this, but once he did, Zhuang Zhizhong couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted, " Shut up! Do you know who the young man who came with Xiaoxue is?"

Gu Xiaoyun was slightly stunned and said, "Didn't he say he was Shi Qingxue's classmate?"

"Yes, they are classmates. Besides that, what else? Do you know who that young man is?"

Gu Xiaoyun asked: "What is your identity?"

Zhuang Zhizhong shouted at the top of his lungs: "Ranked sixth on the latest Hurun Rich List! The sixth richest person in the country!"

"Sixth in the country?"

Gu Xiaoyun was so frightened that her face turned pale: "Doesn't that mean they are richer than the Su family? No matter how powerful the Su family is, I've never heard that they are ranked sixth in the country."

Zhuang Zhizhong sighed, his face full of distress: "Mom, you really hurt me this time."

"this……"

Gu Xiaoyun didn't know what to say at this time.

Zhuang Zhizhong stood up and said, "Let's just leave it at that. Don't mention it again. Fortunately, I didn't go too far. Otherwise, if I really angered such a billionaire, I'm afraid I would lose my job."

Seeing Zhuang Zhizhong so depressed, Gu Xiaoyun felt a little unconvinced. After all, in a mother's eyes, her sons are the best.

"He is rich, but you are not bad either. You graduated from Kyoto University and work for Microsoft. Maybe you will be better off than him in the future."

Zhuang Zhizhong laughed when he heard this: "There are thousands of graduates from Beijing University every year, but there are only a few young rich people like Lu Yiming in the world. How can I compare with him?"

Gu Xiaoyun is a housewife and doesn’t know the difference. How could Zhuang Zhizhong, a working professional, not know?

No matter how unwilling he was to accept it, he knew that he could never defeat Lu Yiming.

Gu Xiaoyun said, "What are you afraid of? That's Microsoft. They can't fire you just because Lu Yiming is unhappy, right?"

“Is that weird?”

Zhuang Zhizhong said, "I'll tell you the truth. Today we went to visit Microsoft. I wanted to show off and make Lu Yiming give up. I didn't expect that the biggest boss here, you know? The biggest boss of Microsoft in our country, would invite Lu Yiming to dinner and treat him with great respect. Not to mention firing me, if Lu Yiming asked our general manager to resign, she would do it without hesitation."

"Is it really that exaggerated? On what basis does he do that?"

Gu Xiaoyun felt it was incredible.

Zhuang Zhizhong said, "Do you know that Lu Yiming can chat and laugh with the world's richest man Bill Gates in the United States? The two have business dealings and are considered an alliance of interests. What do you think is the basis for this?"

"How could his background be so important?"

Gu Xiaoyun was completely out of temper. Her son's immediate superior acted like a lapdog in front of him. What was there to fight about? They were not even on the same level.

She was also thinking that if Zhuang Zhizhong took care of Shi Qingxue no matter what, after they got married, as Shi Qingxue was the only daughter, wouldn't all of Shi Qingxue's property end up in Zhuang Zhizhong's hands?

Even further, if he could directly infiltrate the Su family, Gu Xiaoyun didn't even dare to think about how rich he would be by then.

At that time, you will become a top rich man in one step .

Everything was planned very beautifully.

But now there is a small problem - my son's competitor seems to be a little stronger.

After dinner, Lu Yiming and Shi Qingxue strolled in the evening breeze in Luoguxiang, Jingnan. The night view here is beautiful, and there are many unique snacks, so young people come here to walk around at night.

There are also people singing on the streets with guitars. Their skills may not be as good as those of professional singers, but their emotions are real and full, and their singing is very contagious.

Shi Qingxue and Lu Yiming walked side by side, seemingly enjoying this leisure time.

As I was walking, I saw a lot of people gathered not far away, so I asked curiously, "Why are there so many people there?"

Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Let's go and take a look."

The two squeezed into the crowd and found that it was a couple who were breaking up.

Sure enough, this kind of excitement is much more interesting than the acrobatics nearby.

The woman is quite pretty and the man looks a bit handsome too.

Judging from their looks, they could be considered a perfect match, but I don't know why they broke up.

The woman looked disgusted and said loudly: "Don't bother me anymore, we have broken up!"

The man knelt on the ground, looking worried: "We have been in love for four years in college, isn't that better than the four months you have known him?"

The girl cried and cursed, "I accompanied you for four years in college, what did you give me? Now he is giving me a house directly, so that I can settle down in Beijing, can you do it?"

As she spoke, the girl shook off the boy's sleeve, squeezed out of the crowd, and disappeared into the night.

The man's face was filled with despair. He knelt on the ground, at a loss.

Shi Qingxue frowned deeply, and said indignantly, "How could she do this?"

Lu Yiming thought of himself before his rebirth, then he sighed heavily and said, "This kind of thing is very common, and it will become more and more common in the future. Who doesn't want to live a good life in this world? Love can't be eaten."

Shi Qingxue put her hands on her hips angrily: "Okay, so that's what you think."

Lu Yiming smiled and held her in his arms, sniffing her hair vigorously: "What I mean is that everyone has the right to make a choice. Some people choose bread, some people choose love, and I choose you. So, are you willing to be my girlfriend?"

“Eh…”

Although she had been looking forward to hearing this sentence for a long time, when Lu Yiming really said it, her heart still beat wildly and her cheeks turned red.

The people around had just watched a large-scale breakup scene due to love for the rich and hate for the poor, and in the blink of an eye they saw this large-scale sweet scene and immediately started to make a noise.

"Promise him!"

Shi Qingxue felt sweet in her heart, but she still pouted and said, "Humph, another surprise attack. You didn't even prepare a bouquet of roses. You're really insincere."

Lu Yiming glanced at the guitarist singing on the street, then smiled and said to Shi Qingxue, "Wait for me, the roses you want will be here soon."

Then he went over, took out a bunch of money, and stuffed it into the guitarist's hand: "I'll buy your guitar."

The guitarist wanted to say he would not sell it, but he was short of money and he quickly succumbed to Lu Yiming's financial offensive and just took the money and left.

Lu Yiming took the guitar, sat in the guitarist's seat, tuned the guitar, and began to play and sing by himself.

"A flower blooms

There is a flower love

A mountain of flowers

Only you are my treasure

Wait well

Waiting for your rose to bloom

A mountain of flowers

Only you are the cutest

You are my rose

You are my flower

You are my love
