第2363章 小争执

Chapter 2363: A Small Disagreement For Zhao Fusheng, Future Technology occupied a significant position in his business landscape. Or rather, Zhao Fusheng had known from early on that Future Technology might become one of the sharp swords in his hands. Future Investment managed his wealth. And Future Technology would create wealth. Therefore, he asked Dong Guoxiang and the other person what path Future Technology should take in the future. Because he knew that if they made the wrong choice, it would affect the company's future development. Fortunately, Zhou Shijie's suggestion made Zhao Fusheng realize. Perhaps he really should let go and let the company develop on its own. After all, if he always relied on his own foresight, even if the company was doing well now, once his foresight lost its advantage, the entire company would fall into trouble. Internet companies develop rapidly, but they also collapse quickly. …… …… After handling this matter, Zhao Fusheng left the capital. He rarely stayed long when returning to the country now. On one hand, the company's affairs were on track, with Dong Chenxi and others keeping an eye on things, so he didn't need to intervene. On the other hand, the subsidiaries that had been financed were developing well and no longer needed management oversight, which made Zhao Fusheng much more relaxed. In fact, Zheng Yao was already planning to officially start her vacation after the financing of Future Real Estate was completed. Zhao Fusheng agreed with this. In his view, Zheng Yao had worked too hard over the years, and now having the opportunity to rest was a good thing. Moreover, Zhao Fusheng himself was considering whether to take his wife on a world tour. "A world tour?" In Rome, Italy. Fan Baobao looked at Zhao Fusheng helplessly: "Where did this sudden idea come from?" She had been playing with the children when Zhao Fusheng called her over and told her he wanted to take her on a world tour. "What, you don't want to go?" Zhao Fusheng looked at his wife with some surprise. He had originally thought Fan Baobao would be happy to go with him. Fan Baobao glared at him: "Have you considered how old our parents are? If we go on a world tour and leave the kids with them, can I really feel at ease?" "Isn't there a nanny?" Zhao Fusheng asked helplessly. He didn't understand what there was to worry about. "With these two troublemakers of yours..." Fan Baobao couldn't be bothered to complain further. Pointing at Zhao Xue, she said to Zhao Fusheng: "Your daughter lost the crystal necklace Tan Kaixuan gave her the day before yesterday. A group of people searched the island for over three hours before finding it." "And your son, he's like a monkey all day, never calm. Anyone with slow legs can't keep up with him." Fan Baobao's relentless complaints finally made Zhao Fusheng realize that, without him noticing, the children had grown up. And his parents had truly aged. Seeing Zhao Fusheng fall silent, Fan Baobao sighed softly, walked over to him, embraced him, and said gently: "I know you feel we haven't traveled much over the years, and you want to compensate me. But I think being able to accompany our parents, our children, and you is the happiest thing in the world." Zhao Fusheng remained silent. At that moment, he truly understood what Fan Baobao really wanted. …… …… Whether between husband and wife or between parents and children, the most important thing is communication. Zhao Fusheng had always overlooked this. Perhaps because of his rebirth and foresight, he unconsciously placed himself on a higher level, and his communication with his family was actually limited. So he didn't know what his parents wanted, what Fan Baobao wanted, and he wasn't even very familiar with the children's situation. Fortunately, his relationship with Fan Baobao was strong enough that she knew to remind him at the critical moment, and Zhao Fusheng finally woke up. Now that he had mentally prepared himself, he naturally set about making improvements. "Cancel all my arrangements for the next month. I'm staying here to be with my family." Zhao Fusheng instructed his secretary. Chen Qiuyan naturally had no objections. He was the boss, and if the boss wanted to do something, he didn't need to explain it to her. After all, she wasn't like Wu Sijie and the others, who had the courage to question Zhao Fusheng. Zhao Fusheng was quite satisfied with her obedience. Although there was some gap in ability, Chen Qiuyan's greatest strength was being honest and dutiful. For a company boss, if the secretary lacked ability and loyalty, at the very least, she should know how to take care of people. Otherwise, what use was she? "Why haven't you left?" Zhao's mother was somewhat surprised to see that her son hadn't gone. In her impression, Zhao Fusheng usually stayed only a few days here before returning to China to handle business. But this time, he stayed for half a month, which surprised both Zhao's father and mother. Zhao Fusheng chuckled: "Mom, don't you like having me at home?" "Get lost." Zhao's mother glared at him: "I'm just a bit curious. What, did you make Baobao angry?" Although she knew her son and daughter-in-law had a good relationship, Zhao's mother couldn't be sure that her son wouldn't upset Fan Baobao. After all, Zhao Fusheng had always been rather dull since childhood. Zhao Fusheng was speechless. So in his mother's mind, he was such a character. But he still smiled and waved his hand: "Mom, don't overthink it." "What do you mean overthinking? I'm worried about you." Zhao's mother glared at her son: "Let me tell you, women all need to be coaxed. No matter what kind of woman..." Then she gave Zhao Fusheng a long list of strategies. All of them were about how to please a wife. Zhao Fusheng was dumbfounded. After his mother finished, he smiled and asked: "So, did Dad use these on you back then?" "Yes." Zhao's mother laughed heartily: "Your dad always thought I couldn't tell, but I was deliberately playing along." Zhao Fusheng smiled. But then he laughed again. His mother's words made him realize that this was how couples got along. Many people's personalities and habits had problems. Between husband and wife, there wasn't that much right and wrong. As long as it didn't involve matters of principle, sometimes pretending to be ignorant while knowing the truth was undoubtedly the best way to get along. The more you dwell on those things, the harder you make your own life. Everyone knew this. But in life, people often unconsciously insisted on arguing about who was right and who was wrong. The result of doing so was naturally that feelings grew cold.

Chapter 2364: The Finale In fact, people often unconsciously use the phrase "for your own good" to hurt others. For example, if someone likes apples, you hand them a pear; if they like bananas, you give them a piece of watermelon. If it were just that, it would be fine. But you eagerly wait for them to finish eating, and if they don't, you think they are disobedient or look down on you. The result of doing this is naturally mutual dissatisfaction. Zhao Fusheng felt that he had unintentionally made such a mistake. Since that was the case, he naturally knew what to do. Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival of 2012 arrived. Perhaps because this date was seen by many as the end of the world, various rumors began to spread on the internet. Some even wrote novels specifically about the apocalypse. Things like zombie viruses. When Zhao Fusheng was bored, he would read some of them, and after finishing, he couldn't help but laugh. Sure enough, they were basically the same as the ones he had read in his previous life, just old wine in new bottles. "Why have you been so into reading novels lately?" Fan Baobao entered the room and saw Zhao Fusheng reading a novel on his phone. She asked curiously. "They're quite interesting." Zhao Fusheng looked up and smiled, holding up his phone: "And don't you think this Apple phone is pretty good?" "It's okay, I guess." Fan Baobao nodded: "By the way, when you go to the US for the meeting next week, do you want to take us?" "Us?" Zhao Fusheng was taken aback and looked at Fan Baobao in surprise: "Who's 'us'?" "Me and our mom. The old lady wants to go shopping..." Fan Baobao explained patiently. Now that they had a private jet, Zhao's mother and Li Yuan, whose health had improved, would occasionally travel around the world, naturally for tourism and shopping. Women, no matter their age, always had a natural love for shopping. It was like how men, regardless of type, all liked beautiful women—same principle. Zhao Fusheng thought about it and had no objections, so he nodded and agreed. …… Time passed quickly, and soon it was time for Zhao Fusheng to go to the US for the meeting. The group arrived in New York by plane. "I'll go to the meeting; you all can shop on your own." Zhao Fusheng said to Fan Baobao and his mother. He was going to Los Angeles to meet with Mark Zuckerberg, and naturally, he couldn't accompany Fan Baobao and the others for shopping. The women understood his meaning and nodded for him to leave. Zhao Fusheng wasn't joking; he really went to the meeting. But this time, no one knew why he was in such a hurry to get to the US. After meeting privately with Mark Zuckerberg, Zhao Fusheng officially announced that he would sell his shares in Facebook. Not only that, he would even gradually liquidate his holdings in foreign companies like Samsung. The news caused an uproar in public opinion. No one expected him to make such a choice. But upon reflection, it seemed reasonable. After all, Zhao Fusheng had long announced that he was retiring. In fact. When Zheng Yao and Dong Chenxi received the news, they were also shocked. They couldn't understand why Zhao Fusheng would make such a choice. But then, Zhao Fusheng's next move surprised them even more. Zhao Fusheng officially announced that he would pool his foreign capital into an investment fund. "So, are you planning to shift entirely into the investment industry?" With this question, Dong Chenxi met with Zhao Fusheng specifically. Zhao Fusheng smiled but shook his head: "Not me, but you." "Me?" Dong Chenxi looked puzzled. Clearly, she didn't understand what Zhao Fusheng meant. Zhao Fusheng laughed and said: "From now on, you'll be in charge of the foreign funds. Domestically, Zheng Yao should be able to handle things well." "And what about you?" Dong Chenxi asked in surprise. "I'll naturally retire." Zhao Fusheng shrugged. Retire? Dong Chenxi really hadn't expected Zhao Fusheng to plan this way. This guy had clearly already set his mind on stepping back. He was only in his early thirties and already thinking about retiring. This guy... For a moment, Dong Chenxi found herself speechless. Because she had to admit that Zhao Fusheng's move was impeccable. Now, Zhao Fusheng could indeed make such a choice. After all, with a net worth of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, and the entire Future Group's financial situation being very healthy with extremely low debt. In short, Zhao Fusheng's wealth was enough for several lifetimes. Under these circumstances, he could indeed choose to rest. "Work hard." Zhao Fusheng smiled and patted Dong Chenxi on the shoulder, then stood up and walked out of the office, leaving her with his back. …… From that day on. Zhao Fusheng truly faded from public view. No one knew why he made this choice, but it was certain that the Future Group became increasingly low-key. Many times, people only heard of their involvement in projects but didn't know the exact amount invested or the shares held. Some speculated that this was a strategy set by Zhao Fusheng after his departure. Others said that Zhao Fusheng chose to retire because he wanted to spend more time with his family. But regardless. He had already left the business world. Fan Baobao didn't feel much about it. Perhaps in her eyes, whether Zhao Fusheng was in business or an ordinary person, as long as he was by her side, it was enough. Many years later, when everyone had grown old, sitting on a beach in Hawaii, surrounded by seabirds flying back and forth, the distant sea shimmering. "Say, what were you thinking back then?" A white-haired Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng and asked in confusion. "Actually, I wasn't thinking much." Zhao Fusheng said calmly: "I just felt tired. Since I was tired, I decided to take a rest." Then. He looked at Dong Chenxi meaningfully: "Do you think I shouldn't have rested?" Dong Chenxi was taken aback, then laughed: "I remember the first time I met you; you seemed to be like this, always doing things your own way." "Haha, I was young back then." After saying this, both of them burst out laughing. "You two, enough." At that moment, Zheng Yao's voice came from behind them: "Have you considered my feelings?" Zhao Fusheng and Dong Chenxi were stunned, then suddenly laughed. Memory has two functions: one is to feel pain, the other is to feel happiness. Those who feel pain harbor resentment; those who feel happiness harbor compassion. For them, perhaps memory was the best summary of life. (The End)
