The Su family is a big family that was born in Huizhou, but has stood in Yanjing for a hundred years.
During the Qing Dynasty, when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement swept across China, the Su family followed the red-capped businessman Hu Xueyan and risked their lives to deliver arms, food and grass for the Qing army, and they were appreciated by the Qing government.
After that, the Su family moved from their hometown in Huizhou to Yanjing with a solid family business. Since then, the family has been in business for generations, and its strength has always been at the forefront of the country.
In the past few decades, the Su family and the Ye family were fighting each other. They were already a little weak under the sniper attack of Ye Chen's father Ye Changying, but after Ye Changying died young, the Su family immediately stepped on the Ye family and stepped forward. became number one in the country.
The old man of the Su family, named Su Chengfeng, took his name from Su Shi's famous "Tixi Linbi".
As the saying goes:
Viewed horizontally as ridges and sideways as peaks, the distance and height are different.
I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, just because I am in this mountain.
Su Chengfeng got his name from this.
Su Chengfeng is sixty-seventy this year, although he is not very old, he is no longer in his prime.
Logically speaking, his life has already been considered a great achievement, but he is still not satisfied.
He hopes to lay a solid foundation for the Su family before he retires, at least to realize the long-cherished wish of "1 is greater than 2+3".
Since ancient times, no one in the business field has been able to truly dominate.
The true meaning of the so-called 1 greater than 2+3 refers to the fact that the family ranked first has a greater overall strength than the family ranked second and the family ranked third combined.
To be more specific, it means that the comprehensive strength of the Su family is greater than the combined strength of the Ye family and the Gu family.
In this way, even if the second and third ranks join forces to fight against him, he doesn't have to worry at all.
Only in this way can the Su family truly rest easy.
Now, the gap between the Su family and the Ye family is indeed getting bigger and bigger, but if you want to truly achieve 1 greater than 2+3, there is still a gap of at least hundreds of billions in assets.
Therefore, the Su family is now actively seeking breakthroughs overseas, hoping to realize this ambition in one fell swoop.
As long as this goal is achieved, Yanjing will no longer have the concept of three major families. Instead, it will be the new pattern of the Su family who despises the heroes.
Therefore, Su Chengfeng attaches great importance to this shipping business.
Hearing that the old man attaches great importance to ocean transportation, one of the heirs of the Su family couldn't help showing off in front of old man Su: "Grandpa, my grandson feels that the development of the world economy has encountered a lot of resistance. There is a huge contraction, and we don¡¯t know when foreign trade will fully recover. In this case, betting on ocean shipping rashly is actually very risky, and it is very likely to buy the bottom halfway up the mountain, so grandson advises you to think twice Then go!"
"Think twice?" Su Chengfeng snorted coldly, ignored him, but looked at the middle-aged man next to him, and sternly reprimanded: "Old Wu, is this how you discipline your son? How dare you question me here even if you don't even have a full hair?" Is my decision really assuming that I am an old Lian Po who is still able to make a living?"
The one who is called the fifth child is Su Shouxin, the fifth son of Mr. Su.
In this generation of the Su family, there are five sons and two daughters.
For these seven children, the middle character of the name is "Shou" for guardian, and the last seven characters, from big to small, are Dao, Virtue, Benevolence, Yi, Li, Wisdom, and Faith.
And these seven characters are what Laozi said in the "Tao Te Ching", the seven levels of morality.
Su Shouxin is the fifth son of Mr. Su, and also the last of the seven children.
And the young man who spoke just now is Su Shouli's youngest son, Su Zhiyuan.
Su Zhiyuan is just eighteen years old this year, and he can be regarded as an academic genius. Last year, he was admitted to Harvard University in the United States by relying on his own strength.
?Because of his young age and being favored all the time at home, Su Zhiyuan has a very strong desire to express himself.
However, he used to perform in front of his parents, and had no chance to perform in front of his grandfather. Today, he finally seized the opportunity to argue with the old man's ideas, so as to show off his extraordinary talent and wisdom, but he never expected that just one sentence would anger Mr. Su.
He was about to explain, but he didn't think about it. His father Su Shouxin stood up and slapped his big mouth several times. The corners of his mouth were full of blood. Go to the dog's stomach? Dare to question your grandpa's decision here?!"
"I" Su Zhiyuan covered his face, he was so wronged that he wished he could die here.?.
He has never been beaten in such a big age, and he can't understand why his father, who has always loved him, wants to beat him to death after a word angers his grandfather.
Moreover, it was still in front of the entire family.
At this time, Su Shouxin is mad at this son who does not make progress!
He is very aware of the coercion of the old man, even his eldest brother Su Shoudao dare not contradict the old man, let alone his ineffective young son?
That's not how you get the limelight!
It is very likely that with his words, the old man will be completely thrown into limbo in the future. After graduating from university, he will not even have the chance to return to the Su family to work!
The reason why Old Master Su Su Chengfeng is so domineering and authoritarian has a lot to do with his growth experience.
When he was young, he had many brothers.
At that time, it was still in the Qing Dynasty. His father not only had a principal wife, but also married six concubines and seven wives, and gave birth to him more than thirty children, among whom there were as many as twenty-three sons!
And Su Chengfeng is just one of the twenty-three sons.
Just like the ancient princes fighting for the heir, Su Chengfeng has been fighting openly and secretly with twenty-two brothers since he was a child, and he has been fighting for fifty years before finally inheriting the position of Su Family Patriarch.
Therefore, fifty years of constant fighting made his temperament extremely domineering and ruthless.
If anyone threatens his dignity, even if it is his own son or grandson, he will never tolerate it.
Su Zhiyuan was young and ignorant, and with the halo of a genius, he dared to contradict Mr. Su to find a sense of existence. In the eyes of everyone, this move was no different from courting death!
Su Shouxin slapped Su Zhiyuan dozens of times, so that he almost couldn't stand up and was about to pass out. Then old man Su snorted coldly and said, "Okay, don't slap him, let someone take him out, we Continue the meeting!"
Su Shouxin's heart was bleeding a long time ago, but the old man didn't speak, he didn't dare to stop at all.
Seeing that the old man finally spoke, he put away his hands, suppressed the distress in his heart, and scolded the servant standing next to him: "Hurry up and pull this unfilial son out of me!"
Several servants immediately stepped forward and dragged Su Zhiyuan out who was vomiting blood, dizzy and tinnitus.
Only then did Mr. Su clear his throat, and continued: "This cooperation with the Japanese will not only win at least 20% of the operating rights of Tokyo Port, Yokohama Port, and Osaka Port, but also allow them to provide at least For all kinds of cargo ships and oil tankers with a displacement of three million tons, whoever can provide the most resources will have the opportunity to become a member of us. Therefore, this time you go to Japan, you must carefully examine the true strength of Ito and Takahashi. , In addition, we must force the two of them to spend the most resources!"
The eldest son Su Shoudao blurted out: "Father, who do you plan to let cooperate with these two Japanese families this time?"
Mr. Su was silent for a moment, and said, "Zhifei, you are the eldest son and grandson, and it's time to take charge of your own affairs. This time, you will take the lead!"
Su Zhifei is the eldest grandson of Mr. Su and the eldest son of Su Shoudao. He is 28 years old this year and is the most outstanding male heir of this generation of the Su family.
As soon as he heard that he was selected, Su Zhifei immediately stood up and said firmly, "Grandpa, please rest assured, Zhifei will definitely go all out!"
Grandpa Su nodded lightly, and his eyes fell on the beautiful and utterly glamorous girl next to Su Zhifei.
It was also at this moment that the old man's eyes were finally not so hard, and replaced by some doting eyes, he said with a smile: "Zhiyu, you will graduate from Yale soon, and it's time to go out and exercise, this time you and Go with your brother, learn more, see more, and accumulate some experience!"
The beautiful and glamorous girl stood up, bowed slightly, with a lukewarm expression, lukewarm eyes, and a lukewarm tone, and said: "Okay Grandpa, Zhiyu understands." (Note Website website: www.hlnovel.com
