In the era of fetal wear, she became the first socialite in Hong Kong

"So...Yan Yan, you are going to the mainland to watch the ceremony?" Gu An Ning's face was full of shock.

Xi Qingqing, sitting cross-legged at the coffee table peeling melon seeds, commented sharply: "Sisters, if you become rich and powerful, don't forget each other!"

Fu Ziyan raised her chin slightly, and said generously: "No problem, just wait for me to bring you souvenirs~"

"Speaking of which, quite a few people from the mainland have been invited to the National Day celebrations. From what I've heard over the past two days," Gu An Ning counted them off on her fingers, "Yan Yan's dad is invited, as is Qing Qing's dad, as well as Lu Yu, Huo, Shen Xie, and Shao, and Su Tunan's dad from the cultural world... so when you count them all, it's a lot of people."

Xi Qingqing chuckled. "How can it be less? Ningning, when you count like that, it just seems like most of the celebrities and tycoons in the business community are included. But in reality, there are less than twenty of them. Moreover, the combined assets of these uncles and aunts account for at least half of Hong Kong's real estate capital. Just think about it, there are far more industrialists and businessmen in Hong Kong than just these people."

When Gu An Ning turned around to look at Fu Ziyan again, the look in his eyes was like he was observing a mascot.

"That's amazing, Yanyan! If you think about it this way, you've already been invited at such a young age. Your value is skyrocketing!"

Fu Ziyan laughed heartily and leaned her head against Gu An Ning's shoulder: "Now you know how powerful I am, don't be polite, I'll lend you my golden thigh to hold!"

"Thank you, Mr. Fu. I'll be more than welcome then."

The two of them looked at each other and curled their lips, and then the villain's unique devilish laughter echoed in the room.

Unable to bear the sight, Xi Qingqing covered his ears in agony: "Two great gods, please withdraw your magical powers and let me go!"

Let Qingqing go?

How can it be!

The two of them didn't need to look at each other. The next second, they tacitly moved closer to Xi Qingqing and laughed loudly in her ears.

In a friendship between three people, how can someone secretly be a loner?

We must put things right (become corrupt)!

Xi Qingqing: “…”

"Yan Yan, do you still remember your image as the elegant and elite Little Director Fu?"

"Ningning, I heard that Xiu Luo's CEO, Gu, has only been here for a year and has already completely streamlined his work. I think I can submit a request to the board of directors to promote him and increase his workload a bit so we can make the best use of him."

Image and other things are for the outside world. Those present are her good friends who have been playing together since childhood. Fu Ziyan doesn't care about image at all. After all, everyone already knows whether they are human or ghost. But giving Ningning a promotion and more work...

Fu Ziyan quickly switched sides and added fuel to the fire: "Director Fu, please vote in favor!"

The situation took a dramatic turn in an instant.

Gu An Ning blurted out in shock: "Yan Yan, aren't we in the same group?"

Xiu Luo itself was the product of practical application in their elementary school business courses. Initially, it was just a hobby, but after Huo Yiran took over management, it gradually began to move toward an IPO. Over the years, although Fu Ziyan and several other members of the founding team still hold shares, the ownership has fluctuated with the company's operations and management, and Huo Yiran is currently the largest shareholder.

After all, if you want the horse to run, you have to let it eat grass. Huo Yiran has a good family background and is not short of money. She can't just go to the trouble of making a big embroidery while they, who do nothing but invest according to the company's development plan, occupy a large amount of shares.

So, when Fu Ziyan was too busy running Xiu Luo and Huo Yiran first joined the team to lead its expansion, the original founders all gave Huo Yiran a small portion of their shares to reassure her. Later, after Xiu Luo successfully went public, 25% of its shares were offered to shareholders. After Fu Ziyan and the others' stakes were reduced by a quarter, they again sold some shares to Huo Yiran to secure his position as chairman.

After several rounds of investment, the shares of Fu Ziyan, the major shareholder when Xiu Luo was first founded, have decreased from 35% in the early days to 13% today. What's more, Xi Qingqing, Gu Anning and others, whose current apparent shares are barely maintained at 5% of the board of directors' share entry threshold.

Although a larger share of equity means a greater say, they come from wealthy families and everyone knows that rather than taking a large share of a small cookie, the best approach is to develop the small cookie into a big cake, even if they only occupy the corners of the big cake.

Facts proved their foresight was correct. Huo Yiran had indeed gradually developed Xiu Luo from a small mid- to high-end brand in Hong Kong to a popular brand in Southeast Asia, and then to a listed company with a valuation in the hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Even among Fu Ziyan's investment portfolio, Xiu Luo's return on investment ranked among the top five.

Back to the point.

Even though he only held 5% of the shares, he was still a shareholder. Xi Qingqing could still propose motions in the board of directors and vote on important positions in the company's operations, such as promoting Gu Anning, currently the vice president of Xiu Luo.

Facing Gu An Ning's astonishment as if she had been stabbed, Fu Ziyan shook her index finger and explained slowly: "Ning Ning, how can we be so leisurely in such a good time? Qingqing and I are busy every day, so you can't be idle either!"

Xi Qingqing was laughing so hard that she was shaking with laughter.

Ningning still didn't understand the "willing and jealous" feelings deep in the hearts of these capitalists, a mixed bag of beasts of burden who were overwhelmed by work.

Although they are willing to work hard, it does not mean that they don't want to go out for vacation, shopping and enjoy life.

Compared with Ningning, who handles her work as deputy general manager easily and step by step every day, Yanyan, who has been busy for half a year and finally completed the succession process of Yuanxi Hotel, and Yanyan, who is still working diligently and not daring to slack off in handling the Xi's transformation project, have more common topics in terms of resentment towards work.

Xi Qingqing said with a casual smile: Disintegrate the alliance and quickly launch a counterattack, it's that simple!

Gu Anning: ...

"Yan Yan, if I remember correctly, you just returned from a two-week vacation in Europe!"

Fu Ziyan nodded and said confidently, "But before this, I was completely busy flying around the world. Every day, as soon as I got off the plane, I would negotiate with the top management of hotels from all over the world. Not only was my face tired, but my mind was also tired. Compare yourself. Are you too idle to be tolerated?"

Xi Qingqing concluded: "Ningning, we are still young, we should strive for progress!"

"Qingqing, how could you change the subject? Why did you isolate Yanyan and me by yourself just now?"

“I…I???”

"..."

Fu Ziyan, who was the contested team member, leaned on the sofa with an iced Hong Kong-style milk tea in her hand, watching with a smile as the two good friends played around with no real meaning.

Sure enough, compared to an impromptu European vacation, joking around with friends is also a pleasant way to relax.

In September, I spent the first half of the month on vacation, the second half of the month at work during the day, and the evenings meeting with friends from time to time. Time passed quickly and it was the end of the month.

September 28th is the departure day for the invited viewing team.
