~7 min read 1,249 words

After thinking, Xiao Ming said again: "However, I need to remind you, having suffered losses, you must learn to have a long memory; being in a high position, many people will want to pull you down from that high position, many people are waiting for you to make a mistake, understand?"

"Mm-hmm, Dad, I know, I will work hard, not disappoint your expectations." Xiao Yunzhe listened, also seriously nodded, and assured in a resonant and powerful voice.

"Mm, I believe you can do it, son, keep it up!" Xiao Ming nodded and said.

……

After talking with Xiao Yunzhe, Xiao Ming immediately began to act.

The next day, he brought Xiao Yunzhe to an investment banquet in Yun Cheng.

At that qualification meeting, Xiao Ming decided to invest the recent series of investments of these two companies, Minghui Group and Inscribe Joy Group, all in Yun Cheng.

Those investments added up to over thirty billion yuan of investment funds!

This move made the city's leader, Luo Jun, extremely happy.

Xiao Ming was too overbearing; as soon as he acted, he poured in that much investment funds, which could push Yun Cheng's development to an unimaginable level.

Before, when he learned that this big shot Xiao Ming's family was going to hold a wedding banquet, he had his subordinates drop their work and attend the banquet; he didn't expect that his currying favor would actually be so effective.

He really is a big shot, so generous!

But actually, Xiao Ming's investment in Yun Cheng has nothing to do with what Luo Jun thought; he invests in Yun Cheng firstly to repay Luo Jun's favor, and secondly, he vigorously develops his business in Yun Cheng because of his uncle Xiao Shan.

Xiao Shan was unwilling to go with him to An Jin, and the other family members also wanted to stay by the old man's side, unwilling to go; having no choice, he could only develop his business here.

When a person reaches a certain age, they want to be as close to family as possible; Xiao Ming is no exception.

He developed his business on this side, and the people here, out of respect for him, also had to be polite to his family.

Taking all these reasons into account, Xiao Ming chose to carry out such a strong investment in Yun Cheng.

After the investment banquet ended, the big shots of Yun Cheng all eagerly came to greet Xiao Ming.

If it were before, Xiao Ming might have been too lazy to bother, directly handing it to the assistant to deal with; but this time he changed his usual style, smiling and responding to everyone who came to greet him.

Xiao Yunzhe, meanwhile, followed behind Xiao Ming, watching how he handled social engagements.

Xiao Ming's several children all inherited his genes well, looking very much like him; the two daughters, due to gender differences, dress differently, but still look decent; Xiao Yunzhe and Xiao Ming, both male, don't differ much in attire, and added to that, Xiao Ming himself doesn't look old.

Standing together, aside from demeanor, young Xiao Yunzhe looks a bit more immature; otherwise, the two are practically carved from the same mold.

When people mention him to Xiao Ming, they always use an affirmative tone.

"General Manager Xiao, indeed a tiger father has no dog son; your son's demeanor is exactly like yours, the bearing of a great general!"

Xiao Ming smiled faintly in response: "You all praise my son too much!"

Whenever there is a similar occasion, Xiao Ming, after exchanging a few polite words, naturally steps aside and lets Xiao Yunzhe handle the socializing, which is also an opportunity to train him.

During the chat, Xiao Yunzhe will timely hand over his business card!

And Xiao Yunzhe's natural attitude, his manner of speaking, etc., have earned everyone's approval!

Seeing Xiao Yunzhe's conduct, everyone present understood that Xiao Ming intended to push his son into the forefront, to step down!

After understanding Xiao Ming's intention, everyone's attitude toward Xiao Yunzhe became more enthusiastic; at this time, Xiao Yunzhe is just starting out, making it a good moment to curry favor with him.

Once Xiao Yunzhe fully takes over, if you want to curry favor with him, you won't have such a good opportunity!

……

When the investment banquet ended, it was already four or five in the afternoon!

Father and son directly drove to Uncle Xiao Shan's house!

As soon as they entered the door, they smelled a fragrant aroma; it turned out that Xiao Shan had specially cooked a meal for Xiao Ming and them!

Xiao Ming was deeply moved; this meal smelled better than any mountain delicacies or seafood he had eaten in those high-end restaurants!

"Dad, let's go out for a stroll!" After the meal, Xiao Yuchun and Xiao Jingrou said goodbye to Xiao Ming, planning to go out and explore the night market in the city.

Meanwhile, Xiao Ming accompanied his uncle in the courtyard, watching the sunset and chatting.

"Xiao Ming, why are you so busy every day? Don't neglect your health just because you're busy making money." Seeing Xiao Ming always busy inside and out, Xiao Shan said with concern.

Xiao Ming instantly felt warm inside: "Mm-hmm, Uncle, rest assured, I'm already this old."

Xiao Ming should have long taken his children back to An Jin; he has been in Yun Cheng for some days, but it's rare to reunite with his uncle, and he really doesn't want to go back too early; fortunately, his several companies in Yun Cheng are preparing a New Year gathering.

Before, he never attended these gatherings, but now the companies' senior executives all know he is the company's boss; furthermore, the incident where he used a rocket to light birthday candles for his daughter, and the amusement park incident, have been causing an uproar online.

The company's executives know their internet celebrity big boss has come to Yun Cheng, and because Yun Cheng's biggest Yige tycoon, Xiang Jiangtao, is following behind Xiao Ming, everyone's curiosity about Xiao Ming's identity grows.

Indeed, the power of the masses is terrifying; not long after, many of Xiao Ming's industries in Yun Cheng were exposed.

What Hangjia, Fengqi, Weiyuan—these big companies—are actually all Xiao Ming's companies.

These companies are all top-tier entities among listed companies.

These pieces of news gradually spread to the employees' ears; the employees all looked forward to seeing him at the New Year gathering.

Thus, Xiang Jiangtao, helpless, called Xiao Ming: "General Manager Xiao, our company's employees have heard that you are the behind-the-scenes big boss, and now that you are in Yun Cheng, they say they especially want to see you; can you come attend this year's New Year gathering?"

Before Xiang Jiangtao's call even hung up, Fengqi's general manager Kong Jinhua's call came through: "General Manager Xiao, our company's people, in order to get me to call you, please come attend our company's New Year gathering; they've blocked me in the office all day; you've already promised Xiang Jianghai, so you must treat everyone equally!"

Xiao Ming listened, utterly helpless; this Xiang Jiangtao, he had just agreed, and then turned around and sold him out?

Ah!

Since it's hard to refuse such enthusiasm, let's agree then!

Just arrange all those companies' New Year gatherings together in one event, so that no one is favored.

After he told this decision to the general managers of each company, the employees were extremely happy.
