This has nothing to do with strength. Any local powerful person who has been rooted in the local area for several generations will easily look down on the family power that has risen later.
This is the case with Chen, Bai, and Liu from Southern Province.
The same is true for the four wealthy families in Beijing.
Lu Fan once saw with his own eyes the head of a family that had prospered in Shangjing's business in recent decades and had assets worth hundreds of billions, groveling in front of an inconspicuous descendant of one of the four major families in Shangjing.
This is the deep-seated pride of the local family.
In their eyes, having money doesn't mean anything.
It takes three generations to learn how to eat, and five generations to learn how to dress. The local wealthy families have their own pride and standards of doing things. Just relying on the connections they have accumulated from taking root in the local area for generations, they can easily support and defeat some seemingly powerful rising stars.
Otherwise, the connections that Wu Xiongfei had accumulated over the years in Nandu and spent so much money would be enough to make people dare not even say a word, and would not even answer Wu Xiongfei's phone calls.
The Fu family is now taking the most critical step.
The strength of the Fu family cannot yet be compared with the three traditional wealthy families in Nan Province, but Fu Ziqiang is trying his best to curry favor with them, trying to borrow the power of the three wealthy families to make the Fu family become a wealthy family and change Nan Province.
The provincial family structure has changed from three wealthy families to four wealthy families.
"This Fu Zikun is not an ordinary person. He is young, but he is good at attacking and strategizing. He is a well-connected person. He doesn't usually show up outside. When he does, he only appears in private clubs owned by three wealthy families. Outsiders cannot enter at all.
, I’m afraid it’s not that easy if you want to see him.” Wu Xiongfei said.
"Who said I wanted to see him?" Lu Fan said with a smile.
"Then why are you asking him? It's not because of what happened yesterday..." Wu Xiongfei hesitated.
"Does our company have any business dealings with the Fu family?" Lu Fan asked.
"It's always been there, but it's all on a small scale. But not long ago, a manager from the Fu family was talking to us about the acquisition. One of their foreign trade companies is planning to sell it out and is interested in cooperating with us. The specific matters are still under further discussion.
." Wu Xiongfei said.
"It has nothing to do with the branch, right?" Lu Fan asked.
"Oh, this has nothing to do with it. The cooperation between the two parties has always been promoted by the headquarters. The branch only needs to complete the final payment step and does not need to participate in other matters." Wu Xiongfei said.
"Okay, I understand. I asked Chen Qing to make a written report on the cooperation with the Fu family, and then report the progress once a day. I want to see all the details of the project progress." Lu Fan said thoughtfully.
Wu Xiongfei frowned, but didn't dare to ask more questions. Lu Fan was the president of Huarong, and he wanted to follow up on a project. This was completely reasonable.
Near evening, Lu Fan received a call from Tang Huanxi. She was going to attend a class reunion that evening and asked Lu Fan if he could go.
