Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

If he truly possesses such foresight and awareness, then he should be the one to lead.

Therefore, some things are actually easier to do from the bottom up.

What should have been resolved offstage was instead brought to the forefront by Yang Jianguo.

Being out in the open means it can no longer be dealt with discreetly.

There are eyes watching from the outside world and people watching from below; we must adopt the right attitude.

This, in turn, gave the top leader the opportunity to make trouble.

Even with incriminating evidence, he didn't dare to actually fire the gun.

It can only exert its deterrent power to the maximum extent when the bullet is in the magazine.

That's the scariest part.

Once it's out there and becomes a reality, it's not so scary anymore.

It's simply a matter of sacrificing one thing to preserve the overall situation.

This is precisely why top leaders often rely on the favors left by their predecessors.

These favors are, in a sense, priceless.

It can ensure the Liu family's continued prosperity, or allow him to advance further.

If the Liu family has a promising descendant within three generations, it wouldn't be unreasonable to use these connections to try and secure the position of elder.

But he still used these favors without hesitation.

If your heart is not at peace, the higher you stand, the more pain you will experience.

"Engineer He and Engineer Lü, what are you planning to do?"

"Invite them to come to Loongson; things will be easier for them in the future."

"...Jianguo, don't hold a grudge."

"Boss, my grievances are directed at individuals. In a large forest, there are always a few scoundrels."

"Have confidence, and even more so, have patience. You are still young."

Upon hearing him mention this, Yang Jianguo shook his head and smiled wryly: "I'm not young anymore, I'm over 40."

"In the prime of life, at the peak of one's abilities, how can one not be young?"

The big boss's mood improved, and he pointed with his finger, saying, "Don't try anything funny. I'm still waiting for you to take over!"

The smile on Yang Jianguo's face gradually faded, and the atmosphere inside the car became somewhat heavy.

This was the first time the top leader had brought up the topic of succession with him.

Yang Jianguo actually understood what he meant, and he could sense it from his past behavior.

If he weren't seen as a successor, no matter how good their relationship was...

How could they possibly allow his prestige in the Ministry of Works to far surpass that of themselves as leaders?

If something becomes too big to handle, it will only cause harm.

Even if the top leader were willing, those above wouldn't want to see this situation.

Because he designated himself as the successor, the higher-ups allowed him to do as he pleased.

His words in the Ministry of Works were comparable to the Crown Prince's edicts.

Yang Jianguo's own plan is to retire when he reaches a certain age.

He wants to make way for younger people, and he also believes that in another ten years or so, he will have accomplished what he wants to do.

At that time, I should also return to my family and spend my time with my wife and children.

They enjoy the company of their parents and live the leisurely life of ordinary people.

He thought the senior leader wouldn't bring this up with him anytime soon.

The senior leader was only a few years older than him.

When he retired, he was almost done with his own life.

When the time comes, if there are outstanding candidates, let the young people go on stage directly.

With fresh ideas, a new vision, and passion, we will guide the way in new directions.

But the top leader brought this up beforehand. Was there some special reason, or was it due to his health...?

"How are you feeling?" Yang Jianguo asked, using polite language and no longer speaking casually.

Seeing his nervous expression, the big boss burst into laughter: "Haha, don't worry, I'm not old yet!"

"5 kilometers every morning, how's that? Not bad, right?"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be hiding anything, Yang Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief and complained, "5 kilometers? Are you taking your grandson for a walk?"

"I'll show you, Yang Jianguo. Let's find a time to have a competition and see how far you can run."

"5 kilometers is too weak. Maybe we shouldn't close it. I'm afraid it will discourage you."

"I'm your boss. Don't you know how to respect your superiors and give in to me?"

"That won't do. That would be cheating and would damage the leader's authority."

"What if I use my position as a leader to pressure you into slowing down?"

"...Since the leader is confused, then let's ask him to change positions."

On the way home, the big boss was not angry at all; on the contrary, he had a big smile on his face.

If Yang Jianguo didn't have this temper, he would definitely have gone much higher and farther than he has now.

But if he didn't have this temper, he wouldn't be called Yang Jianguo.

I wouldn't admire him so much myself, and the previous leader wouldn't have relied on him so much either.

The elders above wouldn't often mention his name either.

Seeing the smile on the leader's face, the driver silently recited the name 'Yang Jianguo' in his mind.

He had said that name countless times.

But this time, he emphasized it especially.

It's as if I'm using a knife made of thought to carve his name into my heart.

'It seems like Xiao Duan is short of someone to fill in for him. Should we let my son give it a try?'

Thoughts flashed through his mind, but the driver focused intently on the road ahead.

These things can be thought about carefully when we get back; getting the leader home safely is the most important thing.

Chapter 539 Your father is not old, all wrong

"Have you settled into the hotel? Remember to keep warm, the weather there changes very quickly."

"Discuss things with your uncle. The delegation's opinions can be used as a reference, but we can't let them make the decisions."

"If anyone has a problem, suppress it if you can, and tell me if you can't suppress it."

"Your dad isn't old yet!"

Inside the room, Yang Jianguo was talking on the phone with Zhiyi, who was on the other side of the ocean.

She has arrived at the Ying family home safely and checked into a hotel smoothly with the help of her own people.

The board meeting will be held tomorrow; Wang An has only called.

I want to meet with her privately before the meeting.

Yang Jianguo suggested that they meet with him and hear what he had to say.

Yang Zhiyi, however, meant that there was no need to meet.

Judging from his past performance and the company's current situation.

Under no circumstances could he change his attitude of supporting his son.

As a father, he is far more than adequate.

But for the person in charge and leader of a large enterprise, this is undoubtedly an irresponsible act.

Even if they do meet, the other person will probably just want to get some information out of her.

For example, why did she personally come to the Eagle family to convene this board meeting?

Wang An sensed the impending crisis and wanted to confirm it further.

Yang Zhiyi didn't want to give her a chance to test him.

She wasn't arrogant enough to think she could fool the cunning old fox who had spent half his life navigating the business world.

So, it's not necessarily a good thing.

“You are the representative. Now that you have made your judgment, do what you think is right.”

Yang Jianguo didn't ask her what to do; he just gave her his suggestions.

But since she has her own judgment and ideas, let's just go with her.

After all, she was the one who went to negotiate.

"Aren't you afraid that Zhiyi will cause trouble?"

Yingzi felt both relieved and worried about his permissive attitude towards his daughter.

That's a business that involves feeding tens of thousands of people and billions of dollars.

What happens next is entirely up to Yang Zhiyi.

Can she shoulder such a heavy burden and responsibility?

Yang Jianguo, on the other hand, was relaxed and said in a frank tone, "Our daughter is much more capable than you think."

Besides, there won't be any major problems.

On her way to Ying's house, Yang Jianguo had already spoken with Mr. Wang on the phone.

They exchanged their opinions, and Yang Jianguo also expressed his attitude to him.

By abdicating and handing over the throne to a more capable person, the Wang family's wealth and prosperity can be preserved.

If it's a vote in the board of directors, he could be ousted.

The Wang family is truly about to exit the stage of history.

The other party was very polite on the phone, saying they would seriously consider it.

But Yang Jianguo could hear the disdain and arrogance in his laughter.

Even today, he still believes he holds the reins of the company.

Even though his son made a mess of the company, causing its market value to plummet.

The original founders who worked with him to build the company to where it is today have either left or scattered.

The rest still dared not disobey his wishes.

This is his kingdom.

Confidence is a good thing, but it can turn into arrogance.

The results are often not ideal.

In fact, Yang Jianguo did not want to see him being kicked out of the company.

The hero's downfall seems to reflect the plight of all living beings.

One day, when he got old and sick...

Will such a scene also happen, where people leave, tea is served, and the world becomes cold and indifferent?

His ability to calmly face the aging process brought about by the passage of time does not mean he likes it.

Putting their work aside for the time being, Yang Jianguo and Yingzi discussed the preparations they should make for the Chinese New Year.

What are the things to buy for the New Year?
