Chapter 124 A tragedy caused by a piece of mahjong
After Lao Meng left, Su Mingyu asked curiously: "Are you really planning to invest in Zhongcheng?"
Qin Hao smiled and asked: "If the assets of Zhongcheng are high enough, why not invest in them?"
Su Mingyu pursed her lips in a rare act of coquettishness: "Then there are a few projects that I had my eye on before."
"You can still invest. We now have 3.2 billion U.S. dollars in hand, and it will only depreciate in value. As long as there are good projects, whether they are long-term or short-term, we can try them." Qin Hao said, standing up and holding Su Mingyu's arms.
Shoulders, coaxed.
Su Mingyu took Qin Hao's arm and said proudly: "That's pretty much it."
Three days later, Su Mingyu called Lao Meng and the two parties arranged to meet at the hotel cafe.
Lao Meng arrived half an hour early. When he saw Su Mingyu and Qin Hao, he immediately stood up to greet them warmly.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Su, please sit down."
Qin Hao didn't mean anything, and said directly: "Mr. Meng, I have read your sales plan. It's not bad. You asked for an investment of two billion yuan as soon as you asked. This is not a small amount. I need it."
Conduct a comprehensive audit risk assessment of Zhongcheng..."
Before Qin Hao could finish his words, Lao Meng directly stated: "No problem, the cities can withstand any audit."
Qin Hao nodded: "Okay, then let's wait for the risk assessment report to come out and then we can discuss the follow-up details in detail."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at any time!" When Lao Meng left, he still couldn't believe it. For a two-billion-dollar project, after meeting him less than twice, the other party decided to invest?
"Oh, today's young people are really terrible!"
Suddenly, at the door of an audit firm, Su Mingyu asked suspiciously: "There are so many large audit firms in Shanghai, why did you choose this small firm in Suzhou?"
Qin Hao blinked at Su Mingyu: "Guess."
"Boring!" Su Mingyu rolled her eyes at Qin Hao and saw that he still didn't say anything. She held Qin Hao's hand angrily, her index and middle fingers already beginning to move.
Qin Hao stopped teasing her after seeing it, and explained: "Although the large audit firms in Shanghai are powerful, they will only be working for us with a project team, and all their resources will not be spent on this."
project, so it’s essentially no different from this firm.”
"Secondly, only local firms know the local situation best, which can greatly shorten the audit time."
Su Mingyu then let go of Qin Hao's arm: "You should have said it earlier, it's just a mystery."
"I'm not afraid that if you learn it all, what will you do if you surpass me in the future?"
"This sounds much more pleasant to my ears."
While they were having fun, the two of them had already entered the audit office.
"Hello, how can I help you two?" the lady at the front desk asked.
Qin Haodao: "We have a case that we want to hand over to your firm, involving an investment of 2 billion yuan. I don't know if your firm can afford it."
Soon, the manager of the office enthusiastically invited Qin Hao and Su Mingyu to the office.
News also began to spread among employees.
"Hey, have you heard? A big case has come to us. It is said that it involves an investment of 2 billion yuan."
"Really? Our firm has never taken on such a big case. If this is done, the bonus will certainly not be small, right?"
"That's necessary. Not only does this kind of big case cost a lot of money, but it can also help our firm become famous. Maybe our firm won't have to worry about business in the future."
Zhu Li looked at the old employees of the company cheering for joy one by one, feeling envious in her heart. She was still taking the CPA exam, so she was destined to have to deal with such a big case.
Half an hour later, Qin Hao and Su Mingyu came out of the manager's office, and the manager sent them to the door with a smile on his face.
"Look at the manager's expression, there's something interesting about this case!"
"Yeah, look how happy he is smiling."
After a while, the manager walked to the office area, clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and said solemnly.
"A big case has just been assigned to our firm. I won't say any more nonsense. Everyone should know that this order has been completed. Not only the firm, but also your personal resume.
It’s also a very important step, you can decide for yourself what you should do!”
"Don't worry, manager, we will handle this case properly!"
"That's right, manager, don't worry, no one will make fun of their own future."
Because she was about to get involved in a big case, the office worked overtime until very late to finish the previous projects on hand. Julie didn't get home until eleven o'clock.
When Su Mingcheng saw his wife coming back with a tired face, he quickly brought tea and rubbed her shoulders, saying, "Lili, what's wrong with working overtime so late today?"
Zhu Li said weakly: "Isn't there a big case to be done soon? It involves two billion yuan, and everyone is crazy busy."
Su Mingcheng clicked his tongue when he heard this: "Huo, two billion yuan? We really can't imagine the happiness of this rich person."
"So, we have to work hard. Two billion is definitely not enough. Let's say two million. When can we save two million, we can live a good life." Zhu Li stretched.
Su Mingcheng looked at his wife's slender figure, his eyes lit up, and he hugged Zhu Li: "Honey, let's have a small meeting!"
"Ah~~~"
Soon Zhu Li's firm started an audit and evaluation of Zhongcheng. Lao Meng gave the green light all the way, and the audit work went smoothly, but it also caused a lot of shock within Zhongcheng.
"It seems that Mr. Meng was really anxious this time and disclosed all the financial data and technical information to the audit team."
"Why don't you be impatient? If the company doesn't have funds coming in now, it might just go bankrupt."
"I heard that the scale of this investment is not small. It's 2 billion yuan. If calculated, it's not much less than Lao Meng's shares. Vice President Sun, the second largest shareholder, can only be relegated to third place."
Twenty days later, Zhongcheng's audit risk assessment report also arrived in Qin Hao's hands, and Su Mingyu frowned.
"This Zhongcheng is completely a family business. Do we really need to go into this muddy water?"
Qin Hao said sternly: "Don't underestimate family businesses. In the development stage of the enterprise, family businesses can often burst out strong cohesion. In fact, many local Chinese companies initially developed and expanded in the family business model. The first generations of these family businesses
Entrepreneurs often have courage, courage, and means. You see, Zhongcheng’s annual turnover is only about 35 billion, but it invests 10% of its turnover in research and development every year. Ordinary professional managers do not have such courage.
!”
"You seem to admire this Meng Zhiyuan very much?" Su Mingyu asked.
Qin Hao smiled noncommittally: "That's right. Lao Meng can start from scratch and create such a big business in just a few years. It's not easy!"
Soon, Qin Hao invested 2 billion yuan in Zhongcheng under the name of the newly established "Haoran Investment" and obtained 18.5% of Zhongcheng's shares. He became the second largest shareholder of Zhongcheng and also obtained two board seats.
"Mr. Meng, please skip the welcome banquet. I'm used to being lazy and don't really like this kind of occasion. Besides, if Zhongcheng holds a board of directors in the future, President Su will attend on my behalf. She can fully represent me.
"Qin Hao declined Lao Meng's invitation.
Lao Meng said with regret, "That's such a pity. I originally wanted to learn more from Mr. Qin."
Qin Hao smiled: "Mr. Meng is joking, I should learn from you, but I don't like studying by nature. In the future, Mr. Meng will either play ball or find someone to drink tea with."
, we can actually communicate."
"Haha, okay, it's settled then, I'll save a round when I have time, and we'll play two shots." Lao Meng laughed.
"must."
.......
Unknowingly, it had been three years since Qin Hao and Su Mingyu returned to China.
Time quietly came to 2017. In the past three years, "Haoran Investment" has become a well-known domestic venture capital institution. Its investment cases include ByteDance, Kuaishou, Momo, Meitu Xiuxiu, Pinxixi, and others.
The asset size of some physical enterprises has also increased dozens of times.
Although the shares of many companies are still held and have not been cashed in, Qin Hao has already occupied one of the top 20 places in the Forbes mainland rich list by virtue of these assets.
As Qin Hao's wife and agent, Su Mingyu has also become the hottest investor in the venture capital circle. The aura of a strong woman is getting stronger and stronger. Of course, under Qin Hao's rogue offensive, Su Mingyu still cannot avoid the three-second attack.
This morning, Su Mingyu was entangled by Qin Hao and couldn't move.
"Oh, let me get up quickly. I have an appointment with the CEO of a company later."
Qin Hao closed his eyes and rubbed against Su Mingyu's smooth back: "No, you forgot that today is the ovulation period. You don't want children anymore?"
It's strange to say that Qin Hao and Su Mingyu have been married for several years, but they didn't get hit even once. At first, Qin Hao thought there was something wrong with someone's health.
However, the test results were normal. Seeing that they were already pregnant, the doctor suggested increasing the frequency during the ovulation period.
Su Mingyu's struggling movements paused. She was actually very conflicted about whether or not to have children. Of course she liked children, but she was also afraid that she would not be a good mother and would cause harm to her children like Zhao Meilan did.
For this reason, she even went to see a psychiatrist, but the psychiatrist could only provide guidance and did not completely dispel her doubts.
Seeing that Su Mingyu stopped struggling, Qin Hao turned over and pulled up the quilt to cover the two of them. He was about to have a "small meeting" when suddenly Su Mingyu's cell phone rang.
The atmosphere was interrupted, Qin Hao gasped and stared at Su Mingyu's mobile phone with an impatient expression.
Su Mingyu thought it was a customer and asked: "Hello? Who is this?"
Next, Su Mingyu completely stopped moving, as if she had lost her soul, and tears kept falling from her eyes.
Qin Hao was startled and quickly asked: "What's wrong, wife?"
Su Mingyu suddenly hugged Qin Hao tightly and murmured: "She, she's gone."
Qin Hao was stunned for a moment and instantly understood who Su Mingyu was talking about. Only Zhao Meilan could make her lose her mind like this.
In fact, Su Mingyu's psychology towards her mother Zhao Meilan is very subtle. On the surface, Su Mingyu hates Zhao Meilan for her patriarchal attitude and all the injustices done to her. In fact, only with full of hope will she be disappointed and despaired.
The people who can hurt you are often your relatives, because the hurt caused by others is only temporary, and you know that society is cruel, and others have their own legitimacy to hurt you.
But as a relative, you trust her and think she should be good to you, but things often backfire.
Qin Hao held Su Mingyu tightly in his arms: "Let's go and have a look."
Su Mingyu was shocked and seemed a little hesitant. Qin Hao couldn't help but pull her up to change clothes and wash up.
Hospital morgue.
Su Daqiang stood aside expressionlessly, Su Mingcheng cried heartbrokenly, and Zhu Li comforted him.
Su Mingyu walked to Zhao Meilan's body, stretched out her hand to lift the white cloth, and her feet softened. Qin Hao quickly supported her, took her into his arms, patted her back gently, and silently comforted her.
"Dad, how could this happen? Hasn't my mother always been in good health? How could she be gone?" Su Mingcheng suddenly rushed to Su Daqiang.
Su Daqiang almost collapsed to the ground: "Your mother played mahjong all night, and then touched a big one, and suddenly fell to the ground. I, I panicked at that time. I didn't know what to do. I wanted to take a taxi.
We took her to the hospital, but several cars on the road refused to take us, so it was impossible to get her to the hospital."
Qin Hao looked at Su Daqiang with some suspicion. Zhao Meilan had a heart attack caused by playing mahjong. As a normal person, even if he panicked, he would not know to call 120. Even if Su Daqiang was frightened, it is impossible for so many neighbors to forget everything.
Already?
It seems that it would take less time to send Zhao Meilan directly to the hospital for medical treatment. In fact, 120 has accompanying doctors, and they all have first aid capabilities.
If 120 can arrive in time, maybe Zhao Meilan still has a chance to survive. In addition, Su Daqiang has been oppressed by Zhao Meilan all his life. Qin Hao doesn't believe that Su Daqiang has never thought about making Zhao Meilan unable to bully him again.
Maybe Su Daqiang didn't necessarily want Zhao Meilan to die. His idea might be to make Zhao Meilan's body less strong so that she would no longer be able to yell at him in the future, but Zhao Meilan was dead after all.
From Su Daqiang's eyes, Qin Hao couldn't see any sadness. In addition to confusion, there was also an indescribable meaning.
"Mingyu, call your elder brother." After a while, Su Daqiang's hoarse voice came from the morgue.
Qin Hao took out his cell phone and dialed Su Mingzhe's number.
In the United States, Su Mingzhe was moving things into the car when Wu Fei came out of the room holding his daughter Xiaomi's hand.
"Didn't you leave anything behind?"
Su Mingzhe pointed to the trunk and said, "Don't worry, the Jingdezhen porcelain I brought for David, the Su embroidery for his wife, and the Sun Wukong mask I bought for his child are all here."
Wu Fei nodded: "Have you brought mahjong?"
"What mahjong?"
"Bring the mahjong set your mother brought last year. David's wife really likes playing mahjong."
"How do you know?" Su Mingzhe asked in surprise.
Wu Fei said proudly: "I finally made an appointment with your supervisor to go on vacation together. I have already found out their family's preferences."
"Oh, why did I marry such an excellent wife like you? What would I do without you?" Su Mingzhe complimented.
"Go, hurry up and get it."
"okay."
Wu Fei looked at Su Mingzhe's back and shook his head secretly: "Hey, if you call Mingyu, why bother looking at David's face?"
Su Mingzhe returned home and heard the phone ringing.
"Hello, who's there?"
After a while, Su Mingzhe didn't come back. Wu Fei came over curiously with his daughter, only to find Su Mingzhe sitting alone in the corner crying.
"Mingzhe, what's going on?"
Su Mingzhe couldn't help crying anymore: "My mother is gone!"
Wu Fei was also shocked: "How could it be? Hasn't your mother always been in good health? Why did she just disappear?"
Su Mingzhe explained the situation again, and Wu Fei was a little speechless. How could this old lady just disappear like that?
On the way to the airport, Wu Fei worriedly said to Su Mingzhe: "We finally got an appointment with David on vacation, but now we are letting him go. Your company has been laying off employees again recently. I'm worried..."
Su Mingzhe's face was full of confidence: "I will call David to explain the situation. Don't worry about layoffs. I am the technical backbone of the company and the leader of the R&D team. No matter how much layoffs are made, I can't be laid off."
.”
"But......."
Su Mingzhe was a little impatient: "Stop it, what do you think we should do? My mother is gone. I, the son, can't even show my face, right?"
Wu Fei gritted his teeth and said, "How about I go back for you?"
"Nonsense! I'm the eldest son of Su, what's the matter with you going back for me? Others won't poke my spine by then? My mother worked hard to bring me up and sent me to study and work in the United States, but I can't even
If I don’t even go to mom’s funeral, then am I still a human being?” Su Mingzhe roared angrily.
The corner of Wu Fei's mouth twitched, and he didn't want to persuade Su Mingzhe any more, but he still warned Su Mingzhe before getting on the plane.
"How about you talk to Mingyu and ask her to say hello to David for you?"
Seeing that Xiaomi's tears were still wet, Su Mingzhe was afraid that he would get angry again and scare his daughter, so he could only say perfunctorily: "You don't have to worry about this, I will take care of it."
Suzhou Airport.
Qin Hao reached out and took the luggage from Su Mingzhe: "Brother."
Before Su Mingyu could speak, Su Mingzhe complained: "Mingyu, what did you do? Such a big thing happened to mom, why are none of you around?"
Qin Hao directly put the luggage in front of Su Mingzhe: "Brother, our mother is only sixty years old this year, and she is not too old to move. Our father can't control what she does every day, so how can we control it? If something like this happens,
I know you are in a bad mood, but this is not the reason for you to blame Mingyu. In the Su family, no one has the right to blame Mingyu!"
"You...what are you talking about?"
"In human terms, brother, if you don't understand, just pretend I didn't say it!"
After Qin Hao finished speaking, he pulled Su Mingyu and left. Su Mingzhe was so angry that he didn't follow him. He took a taxi at the airport and came to the hospital.
The moment Su Daqiang saw Su Mingzhe, it was like seeing a savior, or like a left-behind child seeing his father who had returned from migrant work. He cried so much that he felt aggrieved.
"Mingzhe, why did you come back?"
