The survival rate of many parachuted leaders of large companies is very low.
If your youngest son can't even manage his subordinates, he shouldn't even think about doing any work in the company.
If Huo Jingtian were asked to choose between his two sons' behavior, he would rather choose to praise his eldest son.
Although he denied it just now, he thinks being thick-skinned is also an advantage.
Huo Jiandong didn't expect that his conciliatory attitude would make his father look down on him.
Huo Jianying didn't expect that nothing would happen to her after she did so many little things.
The three of them returned to the lounge, each with their own thoughts.
Zhu Meiling was worried, so she waited anxiously in the lounge with her daughter Huo Yunyan.
Seeing that the three fathers and sons had arrived, he quickly stood up from his seat with his daughter:
"Are you tired? Wipe your sweat off..."
Huo Jingtian took the towel from his wife and wiped his sweat. Huo Dashao, who had just escaped a disaster, was in a good mood and also came up and called out, "Auntie!"
This mother is not his biological mother, so it is normal to call her aunt. Although he doesn't like her, he still has to pretend in front of his father.
Seeing Huo Jianying's enthusiasm for her, Zhu Meiling naturally did it in front of her husband: "You must be tired, wipe your sweat. I heard from your father that during the time he was away from the company, you managed the company in an orderly manner..."
"Your brother just came back from England, he doesn't know anything, as his elder brother, don't look down on him, take care of him more..."
Although she knew that it was good enough that the young master did not make trouble for her son, but everyone could say a few polite words.
Although Zhu Meiling didn't like her eldest son, he was still the eldest son of the Huo family. If she treated him badly or harshly, the entertainment reporters would definitely write about it endlessly.
Alas, it is not easy to be the wife of a wealthy family, it is not easy to be the second wife of a wealthy family, and it is even harder to be the stepmother of a wealthy family's eldest son!
Young Master Huo is not a three-year-old child. His stepmother is not like his biological mother. There is no blood relationship between them. Besides, it would be fine if his stepmother gave birth to a daughter, but she gave birth to a son who can read!
It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. This woman is in her forties and still has fair skin and beautiful looks. She is also very skilled and intelligent.
With such pillow talk, it is really not an easy task for me to fight alone against that brat.
By the way, there is also a naive and sweet sister who makes the old man smile all day long. This combination is really invincible!
"Auntie, that's not the case. Alex is so amazing, a top student in the Department of Architecture at Cambridge University. I'm just a high school graduate, how can I be qualified to teach him how to do things?"
Zhu Meiling heard Huo Jiandong's subtext and smiled. What she was thinking was: You are indeed not as good as my son and you are not qualified to teach him.
Although you are the eldest son, this is not ancient times. The system of primogeniture has been abolished long ago. Now whoever is more powerful gets to take the throne!
You have been quite arrogant in the company over the years.
Yes, you are the eldest son of the Huo family, but do you think that you can sit on the Diaoyutai just by relying on this identity? That is too naive.
In the sunlight, Zhu Meiling felt that the eldest young master's smug face was even more annoying.
Huo Yunyan was a little hungry, so she came over, took Huo Jingtian's arm and said coquettishly, "Daddy, Mommy, I'm so hungry, when are we going to eat?"
Turning her head, the lovely girl saw Huo Jiandong who had been in a daze. She said coquettishly:
"Brother, come here quickly, what are you doing standing there like an idiot?"
Only then did Zhu Meiling notice that her own son was standing outside the door with a sullen look on his face, while Huo Jianying looked very pleased with himself.
Zhu Meiling's heart was beating fast: was her son being criticized
Huo Jiandong was obviously absent-minded, still immersed in the story of "those who do evil will eventually perish". His father did not ask him to be friendly and respectful to his brothers, but asked him not to sit and wait for death.
He always thought that he was doing the right thing, just maintaining superficial peace and doing what his father asked him to do.
Even though he knew it was Huo Jianying's doing, he never thought of breaking up with his elder brother, nor did he think of complaining to his father.
If her husband and Huo Jianying had not been present, Zhu Meiling would have rushed over to find out the truth. However, many secrets had to be said in private and could not be said in front of her husband and the eldest master.
Zhu Meiling handed her son a towel and said to him in a low voice:
"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get home. Who are you acting so desperate for? Even if your father scolded you, it's for your own good!"
Seeing that his father, elder brother, mother and sister were all looking at him, Huo Jiandong couldn't continue to be pretentious and had to put his troubled thoughts aside for the time being.
While eating, Huo Jingtian did not mention what happened on the court just now, but said to his daughter:
"Yunyan, it's summer vacation now. You will go to work in the company starting tomorrow and learn more from your two brothers."
Huo Jingtian now regrets sending his youngest son to study in the UK, which has made him full of the arrogance of an intellectual and without any bandit spirit at all.
The eldest son has too much of a bandit spirit and his behavior is completely uncultured, which is also shameful.
It would be nice if the two of them could just neutralize each other.
Although I don't plan to let my daughter inherit the family business, she will definitely be the mother of the family after she gets married.
If I don’t learn some business knowledge, am I going to have to rely on playing the piano to manage my whole family
Yu Wenyin, who was eating hot pot and drinking wine with Zhao Zitong and Ma Dandan, probably didn't expect how much influence Huo Jingtian's decision would have on her life in the future.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
The shacha in the clay pot was steaming, and three good friends were sitting around the table.
Cantonese hotpot is different from Chongqing hotpot. Most Cantonese people don’t like spicy food, but there are also many Cantonese people who can eat spicy food…
There are many varieties of hot pot in Guangdong.
Common ones include Chaoshan beef hotpot and Shenzhen’s unique bearded chicken hotpot.
Some of the fresh ones include Shunde Congee Hotpot, Zhanjiang and Qingyuan's Coconut Chicken.
If you eat at home, Ma Dandan's mother will use chicken racks and pork bones to make a pot of hot pot soup.
Of course, Cantonese hotpot is not always light, fresh and sweet, there are also some with stronger flavors.
For example, the charcoal oven lamb brisket pot in Guangzhou, and the Hong Kong-style satay hotpot that the three of us had today.
Hong Kong people who know how to eat have a unique way of cooking hotpot.
The most typical satay hotpot uses Chaozhou shacha sauce, sesame seeds, crushed peanuts, dried chili peppers, onions and garlic to stir-fry until fragrant.
Then add pepper and flower milk to make a mellow and rich soup base with a milky flavor.
The beef and goose intestines are roasted in the pot for a while, and then served with the soup with the aroma of peanuts and sesame.
The taste is not too sweet, not too salty, and a little bit spicy.
I have to say: Satay soup base and meat are a perfect match!
