Chapter 2193
Gu Bing laughed. Zhou Andong looked at Gu Bing putting the necklace beside the little person with a smile, but he didn't think too much.
Because apart from Gu Bing and Gu Minglan, he didn't know much about the Gu family, and he had always wanted to see Seeing Jian Qiu's grandfather and grandmother.
But he thought about visiting the two elders before the wedding ceremony. After all, in traditional concepts, if the ceremony hadn't been officially held, it couldn't be counted as a real marriage.
It wasn't very rude not to visit the elders during the dating period, so Seeing Jian Qiu wasn't that anxious, and the matter had been dragged until now.
Now that the child was born, Seeing Jian Qiu's three uncles and two aunts should come, and he estimated he could see them.
As for the grandfather and grandmother, it would be the end of August after the confinement month, just in time for the wedding in a month.
By then, holding the child to visit the two elders would be just right, not too early or too late.
No one knew what Gu Minglan and Seeing Jian Qiu, this mother and daughter, were thinking in their hearts, and bursts of laughter came from the ward.
Unknowingly, time came to noon. The little person in the crib started squeaking, and her little legs and hands started kicking around, obviously hungry again.
Seeing Jian Qiu wanted to feed the child milk, so the few big men left the ward and then came to the stairwell to smoke.
Tang Lin exhaled a puff of smoke: "When are you being discharged?"
"Actually, I could be discharged today." Zhou Andong leaned against the wall and took a puff of his cigarette: "But my mom said to stay one more day, to be steady, and be discharged tomorrow."
"What time tomorrow?" Tang Lin nodded and said: "I'll come over with Dazuo then."
"I estimate it will be past ten." Zhou Andong wasn't sure about the time either: "The hospital starts work at eight. After handling the discharge procedures and packing up, it will be about ten."
Gu Bing said: "The day after tomorrow is the 24th, Sunday. My dad and mom will come over to see Qiuqiu and the child. Also, Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law, as well as Eldest Sister and Brother-in-law will come over.
Eldest Brother and Third Brother are both working outside and can't come back. They asked me to say sorry to you, and they will try their best to find time to come to attend when you and Qiuqiu hold the wedding in October."
Zhou Andong said with a smile: "If work is busy, it doesn't matter if they can't come. Qiuqiu and I can understand. When I have time, I can go see them."
Gu Bing's mouth raised slightly, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face. The relationship between him and Zhou Andong was by no means limited to the superficial relationship of cousin and cousin-in-law.
He didn't care much about the attitudes and behaviors of others. For example, his cousins would come, but he was too lazy to worry about it. After all, that was someone else's business and had nothing to do with him.
However, if his own brother couldn't come, the situation would be completely different. No matter what, he felt it was necessary to explain the matter to Zhou Andong.
Recalling the scene when he returned home last night, Gu Bing's mood improved a bit, because he wasn't scolded. Although his old father still had a straight face, compared to the situation in the past where he would scold him as soon as he saw him, it was already a world of difference.
Because he was now a director of the Yugong Group, factory director of the Brave the World Beer Factory, and was about to serve as the secretary of the woolen mill, which was a real department-level position.
You know, even his eldest brother, who had always been regarded as the pride of the family, was only the mayor of a certain city at this moment.
In the Gu family, the eldest brother had always been the most outstanding and successful person. But who would have thought that he, the most useless one, even considered the most promising, would be like a dark horse that suddenly appeared, rising rapidly with astonishing momentum.
It was conceivable how shocked the family would be when they learned of this news, and even his parents probably didn't expect it.
And the one who brought him this earth-shaking change, in the final analysis, should be attributed to Zhou Andong. It was precisely because of the promotion and help of Zhou Andong, this close friend and noble person, that he had his current infinite scenery.
Therefore, in his heart, in addition to that inseparable family affection, there was an extra deep sense of gratitude. Precisely because of this, he didn't want to see any unnecessary misunderstandings or estrangement between Zhou Andong and his own brother.
After smoking, Zhou Andong returned to the ward to take a look, and then came out to say to Gu Bing and the others.
"Let's go, let's go eat."
They didn't go anywhere else, just found a small shop near the hospital and ate a casual bite.
After eating and returning, Gu Bing, Tang Lin, and Zhang Zuo didn't go up again, but left directly.
In the Crown car, Zhang Zuo said to Tang Lin: "Going to the gold shop?"
"Where else to go if not the gold shop?"
Tang Lin's tone was very helpless. He and Zhang Zuo also prepared gifts for the child, but they ignored Su Su.
If Gu Bing hadn't brought two gifts, they wouldn't have realized this problem even if they saw Su Su.
"Gu Bing sent two pearl necklaces, looking at them, they aren't ordinary things. Is it okay for us to just send gold?"
"Why not?" Tang Lin said: "No matter what gift you send, it has a price. We send gold bars to the child, and they will increase in value in the future. Isn't it more fragrant than sending broken pearl necklaces?"
Zhang Zuo pondered: "What you said makes a lot of sense."
Tang Lin laughed: "And I just thought of an idea, each gold bar is engraved with the child's name."
"This idea is good." Zhang Zuo nodded in agreement: "I really have to thank Gu Half-jin. It was he who took out the gift first, giving us a chance to make up for our mistake."
Jiangzhou!
In the large conference room of the Xurishang headquarters, Man Hongshan stood on the stage in a suit and leather shoes, holding a microphone in his hand.
"Respected media friends, good afternoon! On behalf of all employees of Xurishang, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings and warm welcome to everyone! Today, we gather here to witness this significant press conference together.
Time flies, and our country's reform and opening up has gone through sixteen years of arduous journey. In this magnificent historical process, earth-shaking changes have taken place in all fields of our country, and the beverage market is showing unprecedented vitality.
First of all, we have to mention our country's eye-catching huge population base. It is precisely this unique advantage that provides a vast and boundless consumer market for the beverage industry.
At the same time, reform and opening up have already allowed some people to get rich first. The common people's pockets are bulging, their living standards are improving day by day, and they naturally don't skimp on their own enjoyment and quality pursuit. Thus, beverages have become an indispensable part of their daily lives.
Based on the grand blueprint of the company's overall business development strategy, after careful consideration and meticulous planning, we have decided to further optimize our strategic layout and bravely take the step of expanding into overseas markets.
Among many potential target countries, India is extremely similar to our country, also possessing a huge population base and a vast market, becoming the core focus of our overseas strategy.
To this end, the company plans to invest 380 million US dollars to build an all-around, comprehensive production base on this land full of opportunities and challenges.
The base will mainly focus on beverage production and trade-related businesses. We know that consumers in India and surrounding areas have a strong desire and appeal for high-quality beverages.
Therefore, we will go all out, give full play to our own technical advantages and innovation capabilities, and be committed to developing and launching a series of delicious, nutritious beverages that meet local taste preferences to meet the increasingly diverse needs of the vast number of consumers.
At the same time, we will also actively introduce advanced management concepts and efficient operation models to ensure stable and reliable product quality, and deliver these delicious drinks to every consumer through a perfect sales channel and high-quality service system.
I believe that in the near future, Xurishang will definitely shine in India and even the entire international beverage market, writing a brilliant chapter belonging to us.
Thank you again for the attention and support of all media friends, thank you everyone!"
Man Hongshan's words were like a bomb of huge power, suddenly thrown into the group of reporters, instantly causing a huge uproar and triggering a strong response.
You know, among the numerous enterprises in the country at present, not to mention private enterprises, even state-owned enterprises that can go abroad and move towards the international market are few and far between.
However, at this very moment, Xurishang actually dared to claim that they were going to invest and build factories overseas. This news was no less than a thunderbolt from the blue, fiercely striking everyone's heart, bringing unprecedented huge impact to the hearts of everyone present.
At the same time, the event that really brought a huge impact to people happened—that was the press conference held by Yin Mingsheng.
At the press conference, Yin Mingsheng admitted without any avoidance that Yin Mo was indeed his son. And facing the scandal of his son being caught for solicitation, Yin Mingsheng showed extreme pain and anger.
He expressed his deep hatred for his son's behavior in fierce words, stating that he would absolutely not tolerate or indulge in such illegal and undisciplined acts.
Not only that, Yin Mingsheng solemnly declared in front of numerous media reporters that he would firmly demand that the public security department severely punish Yin Mo according to law, and would not allow any privileges or private feelings to interfere with fair law enforcement.
At the same time, this high-ranking official who had just taken office actually bowed deeply and sincerely apologized to the people of the whole country.
He demonstrated an attitude of daring to take responsibility and knowing how to correct mistakes with practical actions, which immediately moved the reporters present.
As the saying goes, every family has a scripture that is hard to recite, and every family will face various problems and troubles.
Even those families that look bright and enviable may hide unknown troubles and difficulties. After all, life is never smooth sailing, and there are always twists and turns waiting to be crossed.
And besides, who doesn't have a naughty child in their family? Although Yin Mingsheng is a high-ranking official with power and status that is high and unreachable, in the final analysis, he is just an ordinary person, not an omnipotent god.
It is inevitable for people to make mistakes. When he learned that his son had broken the law, he must have been incomparably painful and conflicted in his heart.
However, since the matter has already happened, let the law make a fair judgment.
And for a father, there is really no need to be overly critical of him. After all, everyone will feel helpless and painful when facing this situation, and society should give appropriate understanding and tolerance.
