If you can't even make a successful first shot, don't even think about having any prestige in the company in the future.
A trace of worry appeared on the handsome face of Mr. Huo.
"Ring..." The mobile phone in the bag rang.
"Little brother, how is your recent building collection going?" It was the eldest brother Huo Jianying.
"Thank you for your concern, everything is going well."
There was no emotion on Huo Jiandong's face, but his tone was smiling.
"Little brother, don't blame me for not reminding you. The groundbreaking ceremony will be held at the beginning of next month."
"All the reporters in Hong Kong will be there, and Dad will be there too, so you better hurry up."
The groundbreaking ceremony is one of the various opening ceremonies.
Usually some important buildings, such as buildings, venues, pavilions, towers, gardens, monuments, etc.
A formal celebration event held at the beginning of construction.
"I understand, brother." Huo Jiandong's voice was light.
He knew that this elder brother had no good intentions.
On the surface it is concern, but in reality it is pressure.
Times Square's groundbreaking ceremony was originally scheduled for the end of next month.
My eldest brother went to see a Feng Shui master and he told my father that the auspicious date would be the beginning of next month.
The time given to him to prepare was shortened by twenty days.
"Call Li Ninghao and ask him about the recent progress of taking over the building."
Mr. Huo put down the phone and said to his assistant.
"Mr. Dong, Li Ninghao said that it is about 90% complete."
The assistant hung up the phone and said to Huo Jiandong with a flattering expression.
"Tell him to give him three more days. If he doesn't complete it 100% within three days, he can get out!"
Huo Jiandong's voice was calm without a trace of emotion.
Li Ninghao on the other end of the phone was so angry when he heard what the second young master's assistant said.
These second-generation rich people can do whatever they want just because they have some money.
After graduating from university, he worked hard for three or four years.
Just switched to Qihang, a large real estate company.
This Second Young Master Huo had just returned for a few days, and he was just fired so casually.
Does he think taking over a building is as easy as closing a stall
90% of it was the result of his hard work and working overtime until midnight for a week straight.
Now they are asking for 100%, that’s really too much!
Li Ninghao threw the pile of documents in his hands onto the sofa in annoyance.
"What's wrong? Are you having trouble at work?"
Li Ninghao's mother is a middle-aged woman in her late 50s.
She poured a glass of water for her eldest son and asked with concern while sitting on the sofa.
"Yes, the company is going to build a large shopping mall on the land in Causeway Bay recently."
"The company has even chosen a name, Times Square. The groundbreaking ceremony will be held early next month."
"But I've encountered some difficulties in taking over the building recently. The newcomer, Mr. Huo, has a weird temper. I'm really under a lot of pressure."
Li Ninghao's family is not wealthy, and can even be said to be somewhat poor.
My mother worked in a tea restaurant and my father worked at the dock.
He has a younger brother and a younger sister, both of whom are still studying at St. Ann's School.
My younger brother is going to take the college entrance exam this year, which will cost a huge amount of money.
"Ning Hao, I know you've always been a good boy. Don't put too much pressure on yourself about work."
Li Ninghao's mother patted her son on the shoulder and continued:
"I'm not against you dating that mainland girl, but..."
Li Ninghao's mother is like most native Hong Kong people.
There is an innate sense of superiority, which is very xenophobic.
Although she herself is poor, she looks down on those mainland girls and boys who sneak into Hong Kong.
Most of those people can't even afford to eat and live in cage houses in Sham Shui Po and Tin Shui Wai.
"But there will be no good ending between you and that mainland girl. She can't help you at all in your career. Instead, she will drag you down."
Li Ninghao looked at his 1.80-meter-tall son. Although he was not particularly handsome, there was a strong scholarly air between his eyebrows.
He is a smart guy and a good student. From childhood to adulthood, he has never given her any worries.
The only thing that made her unhappy was the girlfriend he found.
It's a northern girl!
A person from another place has no roots, no connections, and no background. How can he help his son
Don't hold back, that's good...
"Mom, I'm really upset now. Can you please let me be quiet for a while?"
When he heard his mother mention his girlfriend Yu Wenyin, he interrupted her impatiently.
He really didn't have the energy to comfort his mother right now.
If he doesn't collect all the buildings, he will be fired by Qihang Real Estate.
He thought it was funny. He was an architect who drew the blueprints.
He was actually being used as a tool by others and was asked to do such a difficult job as collecting the property.
But what can we do
He is the boss, he has to do whatever he is told to do!
He remembered what Mr. Huo said to him at the elevator entrance yesterday:
"Ben, I didn't teach you to be bad. You have to be ruthless when dealing with stubborn residents."
"If they refuse to move, just cut off their water and electricity and see if they will move!"
Li Ninghao knew that damaging public facilities was illegal, so he just thought that Mr. Huo was joking.
He knew that Young Master Huo always used any means to do things.
That's because he has money and can do whatever he wants.
But it’s different for me. If I really break the law, no one can save me.
Li Ninghao was worried about how to complete the task of taking over the building assigned to him by Mr. Huo.
His girlfriend Yu Wenyin is also troubled by this problem.
However, Yu Wenyin only has one partner, and that is her mother, Empress Dowager Zhou Qingqiu.
She wasn't sure she could convince her mother.
But Zitong gave her a method and she decided to give it a try.
Yu Wenyin returned to her home in Causeway Bay.
My mother Zhou Qingqiu was reading Cao Xueqin's "Dream of the Red Chamber" in the room.
"Mom, I'm back."
Yu Wenyin changed into slippers and went to the study to pay her respects to her mother.
My mother has very high standards and I always greet her when I go out and when I come home.
Even if your mother is resting in the room, you should come into the bedroom and say hello.
"You're back. Are you hungry? There's pig's trotter peanut soup in the kitchen."
Zhou Qingqiu put down his reading glasses and said to his daughter.
Since coming to Hong Kong, she has also learned how to make soup.
There is no way around it. People in Hong Kong and Guangdong are just like those in Guangdong. They can’t eat without soup for a day.
Yu Wenyin felt warm at heart as she drank the delicious soup cooked by her mother.
In fact, she knew in her heart that although her mother was a bit overbearing and strong,
But I really do love her in my heart.
Since their father was sentenced, they fled from Beijing to Hong Kong.
More than ten years have passed, and the mother and daughter have been dependent on each other.
In order to earn money to support my studies, my mother did all kinds of dirty and tiring work.
"Mom, I have a confidentiality agreement I want you to sign."
Yu Wenyin took out a document and handed it to her mother.
This is the idea Zitong came up with for herself.
"What confidential documents? Are you 007?"
Zhou Qingqiu picked up the reading glasses on the table again and put them on, then began to read carefully.
After she finished reading it, she asked her daughter:
"What do you mean? Qihang's building repossession contract?" Zhou Qingqiu's face was filled with anger.
"Didn't I tell you that I have feelings for this place and don't want to move away?"
