Chapter 614: Shocked Zhou Bingyi, the light returns
Yao Lisong's words made Zhou Bingyi couldn't help but become vigilant. In the past few days, he had witnessed Yao Lisong's life of extravagance and extravagance.
To be honest, if you say you are not envious, you are speaking out of conscience.
But he is very sensible and knows that this kind of life is not something he can enjoy. If he lives in such an environment, he will probably fall into depravity soon.
It was precisely because of Yao Lisong's huge changes that he became vigilant when he heard Yao Lisong's words.
"Old Yao, tell me, what's going on?"
Yao Lisong coughed lightly, and then said: "Bingyi, we have known each other for so many years. We are comrades in arms and close buddies, so if I have anything to say, I will say it directly."
"This Zheng Bowen has very strong strength and financial resources. Our Shangneng Group happens to have business that can cooperate with Chenxing Group. However, this Zheng Bowen is difficult to see, so I want to use your relationship to meet this Zheng Bowen and discuss cooperation.
"
Zhou Bingyi said in astonishment: "Through my relationship? But I don't know this Zheng Bowen at all, how can I help you?"
Yao Lisong smiled and said: "Do you know why I just mentioned the name Zheng Guangming to you? Because according to my investigation, Zheng Bowen is not a native of Xiangjiang. He is originally from Jichun City, Jiangliao Province, and Zheng Bowen is not his original name. He
His original name was Zheng Guangming.”
Zhou Bingyi was shocked: "Zheng Guangming, my brother's brother-in-law?"
"That's right."
Yao Lisong snapped his fingers and said: "Bingyi, you guessed it right, Zheng Bowen is Zheng Guangming."
"This is impossible."
Zhou Bingyi exclaimed with disbelief on his face: "Old Yao, you are mistaken, are you? I know Zheng Guangming. He is Zheng Juan's younger brother. When we went to Yanjing to attend university, he was still a
The blind man was later cured by my brother Zhou Bingkun, but that was 80 years ago. Later I heard that he was sent to school in Xiangjiang by my brother, but he went to school for only a few years. He was absolutely blind.
It can't be the Zheng Bowen you are talking about."
"Yes, it's impossible. Zheng Guangming didn't even go to elementary school and has no education at all. How could he become a rich man in Xiangjiang? This kind of thing is absolutely impossible."
Yao Lisong saw that Zhou Bingyi didn't believe it and even said a lot of words to defend it, but he didn't refute it.
"Bingyi, I don't know Zheng Bowen's previous experience, but I can tell you with absolute certainty that Zheng Bowen is Zheng Guangming, your brother's brother-in-law."
Although he investigated and found out that Zheng Bowen was Zheng Guangming, he used his own channels, but he didn't know much about Zheng Guangming's previous experiences.
Zhou Bingyi was immersed in shock and still couldn't believe it.
Although he didn't know how much assets Zheng Bowen had, Yao Lisong was the chairman of Shangneng Group and a big boss in Pengcheng. For Zheng Bowen to be able to take Yao Lisong so seriously showed that Zheng Bowen's assets were really strong and at least he was worth a lot.
100 million.
But Zheng Guangming, who was blind a few years ago, suddenly turned into a big boss with a net worth of over 100 million. Isn't this too fantasy?
"Old Yao, please let me slow down, let me slow down."
Zhou Bingyi leaned back on the chair. His mind was very confused now. He didn't have a deep impression of Zheng Guangming, let alone an understanding. He only knew that he had been living with his brother and sister-in-law, but he had never heard of anything about him.
The talent for doing business.
Yao Lisong chuckled and said: "Bingyi, I don't think you should be too surprised. I investigated Zheng Bowen and found that he was less than twenty years old when he went to Xiangjiang, but he established a company in just two years, and then five years later
Over the years, Chenxing Group has been built into a well-known enterprise in Hong Kong. So far, the assets of Chenxing Group have reached more than one billion."
"If you think about it carefully, a young man who is less than twenty years old, according to you, has never gone to school. Even if he is capable and can earn thousands or eight million, I will not
It’s too shocking, after all, there are so many opportunities to make money in this era.”
"But the problem is that Chenxing Group is a large group involving many industries, with assets of over one billion, framework structure, personnel allocation, etc. How can a young person be busy? What's more important is that since the development of Chenxing Group, every time
Every step seems to be planned and prepared, and it’s not like something that a nouveau riche who suddenly became rich can do.”
Zhou Bingyi narrowed his eyes and asked: "You mean, there is someone behind Zheng Bowen's back?"
Yao Lisong: "I'm afraid it's not just someone who pointed me out. I suspect that the boss behind Chenxing Group is not him at all, but someone else. And this person, according to my guess, is most likely your brother, Zhou Bingkun.
"
"impossible."
Zhou Bingyi retorted without hesitation. He shook his head repeatedly: "Old Yao, you have a fever. How can my brother Zhou Bingkun have such ability? He is still a doctor in the hospital. He is just an ordinary doctor. You tell me he is an asset.
Boss of a large group with over one billion dollars, are you kidding me?"
Seeing Zhou Bingyi's disbelief and constant retorts, Yao Lisong smiled and said nothing.
Zhou Bingyi's voice became quieter as he spoke. After a while, he spoke again to confirm: "Old Yao, are you sure that Zheng Bowen is Zheng Guangming?"
"If I couldn't confirm it, do you think I would say it?"
Zhou Bingyi clicked his tongue: "Yes, but this is too, too ridiculous."
He really couldn't accept this reality. He knew that his younger brother was capable, but he always felt that he was not as good as him and was more of a smart person.
But now Yao Lisong told him that his brother actually had such abilities, which made it really difficult for him to accept it for a while.
He believed that Yao Lisong would not lie to him. As for whether Zheng Guangming founded the Chenxing Group, on this point, he thought the same as Yao Lisong.
If Zheng Bowen is really Zheng Guangming, then Zheng Guangming has absolutely no ability to establish Chenxing Group on his own. It's not that he underestimates Zheng Guangming, but it's simply unrealistic.
"It's ridiculous. I think it's ridiculous too. When I first came out with the investigation results, I couldn't believe it. Of course, I've confirmed that Zheng Bowen is Zheng Guangming, but it's just my guess whether your brother was the one behind it.
, there is no absolute certainty.”
Although Yao Lisong has confirmed this answer, he dare not say it absolutely, but whether it is Zhou Chen's advice or not, Zheng Bowen is Zhou Chen's brother-in-law, and he feels that through Zhou Bingyi, he will definitely be able to contact Zheng Bowen.
"Okay, this thing really makes me..."
Zhou Bingyi didn't know what to say, he was shocked, surprised, and there was a huge gap...
Yao Lisong rubbed his palms and said cautiously: "Bingyi, since you know this, can you please do me this favor and tell your brother to let me meet Zheng Bowen, or in other words, with
It's okay to talk to your brother."
If it were in the past, Zhou Bingyi might have agreed wholeheartedly, but now his relationship with Zhou Chen was very tense. He felt that with Zhou Chen's temper, he would most likely not give him face, but he didn't know what to do.
Talk to Yao Lisong.
"Old Yao, don't think I'm too talkative. I'm just curious. With your current status, why do you insist on getting to know Zheng Bowen? Although he is a rich man in Xiangjiang, he won't make you rush to get to know him, right?"
Yao Lisong said: "Bingyi, you don't know this. If Chenxing Group is developing in Xiangjiang, I really don't have to rush to get to know it. But recently I heard the news that Chenxing Group is preparing to enter the mainland, and has already
After getting in touch with the leaders of Pengcheng, there is a great possibility of building a factory in Pengcheng, or investing in it."
"Chenxing Group's assets exceed one billion. Once they invest, it will definitely be not a small amount. The interests involved are too great. If they can inform Zheng Bowen in advance, it will definitely be beneficial and harmless."
What he didn't say more deeply was that he just wanted to make some money. Xiangjiang is now much richer than in China.
Although he is the chairman of Shanneng Group, Shanneng Group is a state-owned enterprise, so he can only pay dividends, and the amount he received is not as much as expected.
If he wants to make money, he just has to think of another way. The Chenxing Group's stall is so big and it has already reached such a scale in a few years. It may be even more brilliant in the future. If it can be matched, it will definitely be profitable, and
It won't be a small amount.
"Bingyi, you also know that I am a person. If I am not really helpless, I will not beg you. Can you help me think of a way and contact your brother?"
Zhou Bingyi laughed twice and said helplessly: "Old Yao, it's not that I don't want to help you. Let me tell you the truth. I have had a conflict with my brother. We haven't seen each other or spoken to each other for more than three years. You let me go."
If you tell him, it will definitely not work."
Yao Lisong looked surprised: "You are brothers. What kind of conflict between brothers can make you not see each other or talk to each other for more than three years?"
"There are so many things involved. Sorry, Lao Yao, I'm afraid I really can't help you with this."
Of course Zhou Bingyi would not tell the truth, he would just apologize profusely.
Yao Lisong saw that Zhou Bingyi didn't seem to be trying to evade, but he still hesitated in his heart, "Bingyi, this is a major matter for my future development. Is there really nothing I can do?"
Zhou Bingyi looked apologetic: "I really can't help it. What's our relationship? If I can help you, I won't not help you, right?"
Ever since he learned that Zhou Chen might have mastered a capital giant like Chenxing Group, Zhou Bingyi's mood has been very awkward, but even so, he didn't want to take the initiative to go to Zhou Chen again, let alone ask Zhou Chen to do something.
Before his father-in-law left, he hoped that he and Zhou Chen could resume their previous relationship, but he did not do so because he did not think that Zhou Chen could really help him in anything, and he would not take the initiative to bow to Zhou Chen.
"Well, I won't embarrass you anymore. I will find a way to contact Zheng Bowen myself."
Yao Lisong did not force Zhou Bingyi. He was very optimistic about Zhou Bingyi's future development and there was no need to create a gap in their relationship just because of this matter.
As for Zhou Bingyi not helping him find Zhou Chen, he was not ready to give up, but was going to find it himself.
For business people, face is sometimes very important, but sometimes it is not so important. If you want to make money, you have to be willing to show off your face.
Yanjing, Zhou family.
The Zhou family was particularly lively today because Zheng Guangming came back with his girlfriend, Zheng Juan was busy greeting her, and Zheng Guangming also had fun with the three children who came home from school.
Zheng Guangming came to Yanjing today. Zhou Chen had already received the notice. In fact, he was the one who asked Zheng Guangming to come back.
On the one hand, Zheng Juan was always thinking about it, but on the other hand, he also had something to tell Zheng Guangming because he found that Chenxing Group had some problems recently.
So Zhou Chen didn't work overtime today and came back from get off work early.
I took out the key and before I opened the door, I heard a series of sounds coming from the house.
Entering the house, Zhou Chen saw Zheng Guangming and three children running around.
As soon as Zheng Guangming saw Zhou Chen coming back, he immediately stopped playing around, stood upright, and shouted nervously: "Brother Bingkun."
"Well, just come back."
Zhou Chen walked over, patted his shoulder, and said with joy.
I don’t know if it was due to malnutrition since childhood. Even though Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan gave Zheng Guangming supplements later, Zheng Guangming was still thin and weak.
He is only a little over 1.7 meters tall, and his total body weight is estimated to be only 112 kilograms. He is very thin.
But Zheng Guangming's spirit is much better than when he was a child, and he is also very particular about his clothes. It seems that he has learned a lot in Xiangjiang these years.
Zheng Guangming showed a shy smile, and then waved in the direction of the living room: "Xiaoyun, come here and meet your brother-in-law."
Zhou Chen looked over and saw a tall woman wearing high heels getting up from the sofa and slowly walking over.
Zheng Guangming introduced Zhou Chen enthusiastically: "Brother Bingkun, this is my girlfriend, He Yun. You can just call her Xiaoyun. Xiaoyun, please call her brother-in-law."
This woman named Xiaoyun had a face full of arrogance. After hearing her boyfriend's words, she reluctantly shouted to Zhou Chen: "Brother-in-law."
Zhou Chen nodded expressionlessly, and then asked Zheng Juan: "Juan'er, are dinner ready?"
Zheng Juan quickly replied: "Everything is ready. All the dishes Guangming likes to eat. We are just waiting for you to come back."
"Then get ready to eat. I'm going to wash my hands first."
Seeing Zhou Chen walking into the bathroom, Zheng Juan and Li Suhua went to the kitchen to prepare, and Zheng Guangming took his girlfriend Xiaoyun to the balcony.
He complained to Xiaoyun very dissatisfied: "What did I tell you before I came here, that you should be more respectful? Look at how you looked just now."
Xiaoyun said indifferently: "What's wrong with me? Didn't I listen to you?"
Zheng Guangming's face was very ugly, he pointed at Xiaoyun and snorted: "You, I will tell you when I get back, please stop talking when we eat later."
"I know, I know." He Yun looked impatient.
Her accent is very strange, which is normal because she is not from mainland China, but from Xiangjiang.
Zheng Guangming felt a little uneasy at this time, because he had been the apparent leader of Chenxing Group for several years, and he still had the ability to observe what was happening.
He saw that the dissatisfaction Zhou Chen had just revealed was not directed at him, but at his girlfriend He Yun.
During dinner, Zheng Juan was very enthusiastic towards Zheng Guangming and He Yun, especially towards Guangming, who poured tea and water in every possible way.
He Yun's performance was not enthusiastic, but she was not rude either. She just maintained the proper courtesy and smile.
As for Zhou Chen, he didn't say much. What he wanted to say to Zheng Guangming was not suitable to be said at the dinner table.
The meal lasted nearly two hours, and then they stayed at home for a while before Zheng Guangming and He Yun said goodbye and left.
Originally, Zheng Juan wanted Zheng Guangming to stay at home, but there were only three rooms at home, and it was very inconvenient for Zheng Guangming to bring his girlfriend, so in the end she had to agree to Zheng Guangming taking his girlfriend to stay in a hotel.
In the hotel suite, Zhou Chen and Zheng Guangming were sitting together.
"Brother Bingkun, you asked me to open the group branch to Pengcheng. Because of this matter, there was a lot of commotion in the group, and many people did not support this decision."
Zheng Guangming reported the situation of the head office to Zhou Chen. He followed Zhou Chen's instructions and wanted to go to Pengcheng for development, but many people in the group disagreed with his decision, making it very difficult for him to be the general manager.
Zhou Chen said calmly: "I have an opinion, can't you, the general manager, handle it?"
Zheng Guangming wondered: "It's not that it can't be settled, but it's troublesome. Those senior executives are unwilling to go to Pengcheng. If they open a branch in Pengcheng, they will have to start from scratch."
Zhou Chen glanced at him and said indifferently: "I see that not only do they not want to go to Pengcheng, but you are not happy either, right?"
"No, no, Brother Bingkun, I really have no objection. I will go wherever you ask me to go. I promise I won't say anything." Zheng Guangming quickly expressed his loyalty.
Zhou Chen's expression became serious and he stared at Zheng Guangming closely.
"When I sent you to Xiangjiang, your sister was worried. Now it seems that her worries are not unreasonable. In the past few years in Xiangjiang, you have grown a lot, but you have also contracted many bad habits.
Go to the bar, play with celebrities, and look at the loss of your body now."
Zheng Guangming had an embarrassed smile on his face. He also knew that some of his actions made Zhou Chen displeased, but sometimes he couldn't control himself and couldn't stand the persuasion of others.
Although Zhou Chen reprimanded him, he did not blame him too much, because these problems of Zheng Guangming are not a big problem. After all, Zheng Guangming was blind before and lived in a backward country. He went to the colorful world like Xiangjiang in vain and gained many things.
It is inevitable that you will not be able to control yourself when it comes to money.
People will change as the environment changes.
But fortunately, Zheng Guangming still obeyed his words. According to his instructions, he slowly developed the Chenxing Group to its current scale. Apart from him, Zheng Guangming contributed the most to the Chenxing Group.
"Guangming, I can ignore other things, but there is one thing I have to warn you. How many times have I told you, you can have fun, but you have to have a clear head. You have been released in the group for this He Yun
With so many people, shouldn’t they think that I really don’t know anything?”
Zheng Guangming suddenly turned pale and quickly explained: "Brother Bingkun, I have arranged some jobs for Xiaoyun's relatives, but they are only middle- and low-level jobs and will not have any impact on the group company."
"That's what you think. A tall building rises from the ground, every brick and tile is the foundation. You think those positions are nothing, but sometimes they may play a key role."
Zhou Chen shook his head. Although Zheng Guangming established the Chenxing Group under his remote control and gained a lot of experience, he was still young after all, only in his twenties, and he handled many things very immaturely.
"When you go back this time, you should immediately find a way to deal with those people for me. I don't care about your affairs with He Yun, but I still have to tell you that as a brother-in-law, I tell you that that woman is not suitable to be a wife."
If someone else had said this, Zheng Guangming would have kept it and retorted, but when Zhou Chen said this, he accepted it willingly and humbly.
"Brother Bingkun, I remember."
He was not surprised that Zhou Chen could clearly know the situation within the group, because he knew that although Zhou Chen was not in Xiangjiang, there were many Zhou Chen's informants in the company.
He didn't complain either. Everything he could have the good life he had now came from Zhou Chen.
He is a grateful person. Zhou Chen has taken care of him for so many years, cured his eyes, and given him a bright future. No matter what Zhou Chen asks him to do, he will do it without hesitation.
Although he is the general manager of Chenxing Group, he is not the largest shareholder of Chenxing Group. He only owns 10% of the shares of Chenxing Group. The rest of the shares are in the hands of Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan, but Zheng Juan does not know about it.
.
Zhou Chen pointed out to Zheng Guangming again: "Guangming, remember my words, Xiangjiang is indeed one of the world's financial centers now, but no matter how prosperous Xiangjiang is, it is only a small place. The future mainland is the real cornucopia. Enter Peng as soon as possible."
The city is good for the group."
Zheng Guangming stayed in Xiangjiang for a few days and had contact with many top wealthy people. He also gained a certain vision. However, after all, he was still young and not experienced enough to understand Zhou Chen's thoughts. However, he was good and obedient.
"Brother Bingkun, I know what to do. Don't worry, I promise to do as you say."
Zhou Chen and Zheng Guangming chatted for a long time in the hotel suite before going home alone.
Let's talk about Zhou Bingyi. After returning from Pengcheng all the way, he went straight to the provincial compound.
After Senior Official Hao left, the number of people dining in the Hao family increased from four to three.
Zhou Bingyi told Jin Yueji and Hao Dongmei what he saw and heard in Pengcheng. Jinyu Ji and Hao Dongmei were stunned for a moment.
Especially when they knew that Yao Lisong was fooling around outside, the two women were full of emotion and anger, and wanted to defend Yao Lisong's wife Dong Weihong for the injustice.
Jin Yueji lamented the prosperity of Pengcheng. Compared with Pengcheng, their place was really in the sky and on the ground. But after falling behind, she felt that Jiangliao Province was still better than Pengcheng in some places.
The family of three also started a discussion based on these observations. It must be said that Zhou Bingyi was indeed quite capable. By refuting Hao Dongmei and approving Jin Yueji's words, he won Jin Yueji's approval.
Then Jin Yueji asked about Zhou Bingyi's work.
In fact, she has been paying attention to him in the past few years, but because of her special status and somewhat conservative thinking, she has never given Zhou Bingyi any substantial help.
But seeing that Zhou Bingyi attached so much importance to their mother and daughter, and would rather stay with them during the Chinese New Year than go to reunite with his parents, she was actually very moved, and she recognized Zhou Bingyi more and more.
As he talked, Zhou Bingyi remembered what Yao Lisong said to him, and he felt it was necessary to ask his mother-in-law and wife to help him analyze it.
"Mom, Dongmei, actually this time I went to Pengcheng, I learned some things from Lao Yao. These things shocked me and confused me. On the way back, I thought about it all the way, but I couldn't figure it out. I want to invite you
Help me analyze it."
Jin Yueji chuckled and said, "Really? There is something else you can't figure out. Come and tell me."
Hao Dongmei was also very curious: "Bingyi, what exactly did Lao Yao tell you, so that you can think about it all the way and still can't find the answer?"
Now that Zhou Bingyi had decided to speak up, he did not hesitate any longer.
"It's about something about my brother Zhou Bingkun. Well, it's very, very strange."
