Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 389 Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land (3)

Everything is good in this era, and everything is good in the world of mixed-race people.

The only drawback is that there are too few mobile games and nothing fun to play.

Forgetting the past, Han Qiu could only play Angry Birds to pass the time.

That chirp~bang!

Bang, bang, bang. Someone suddenly knocked on the car window, causing Han Qiu's birdie shot to miss the target.

Su Xiaoqiang's face was outside the car window, and his smile seemed a little forced.

It seems that the cooperation talks were not so pleasant.

"Is it my turn to work?" Han Qiu turned off his cell phone, opened the car door, and got out, all in one go.

He also didn't forget to show off his muscles.

"I exercised a lot in the United States," he boasted.

"No need for that anymore." Su Xiaoqiang let out a long sigh, "The deal didn't go through. They talked fine in the teahouse, but they came to the company with another excuse. Foul language, it's annoying to hear."

"So this is how people are deceived in business." Han Qiu smacked his lips. "I thought rich people wouldn't play childish tricks."

"I've been fooled..." Su Xiaoqiang was holding a bag in her hand. There was no wind in the underground parking lot, but she looked a little messy.

I don't know where to put my hands and feet. I guess being a strong woman must be very tiring.

I'm afraid this so-called "being tricked" is not as simple as it is said.

Han Qiu didn't ask, he didn't want to ask, and there was nothing to ask.

He doesn't understand much about business matters.

But he has watched all the TV dramas and read a lot of novels. Art originates from reality and is often not abstract from reality.

After all, some of the actual facts reported in the news are more explosive than fiction.

"Would you like to take a ride?" Han Qiu asked.

"Of course. I haven't had a good time shopping these past two days." Su Xiaoqiang said.

"Get in the car, wander around, wherever you want to go." Han Qiu used other people's dreams to project his own image. "In the United States, if I'm in a bad mood, I'll wander around. If I'm hungry, I'll find a place to eat a local hot dog. I'll just have a couple of bites and continue on my way."

"Sometimes I envy you guys." Su Xiaoqiang got into the car and found the container with a sense of grievance.

Maybe it's telling the car.

Han Qiu hoped that it was not himself, but the car.

Cars are more suitable as tree holes than people because cars can't talk.

Han Qiu had seen a strange man in the parking lot of his father's community more than once, and the man was alone in the car.

Adjust the recliner to a half-lying position and put your feet on the steering wheel, it is very comfortable.

The man kept mumbling to the car, speaking in dialect, which Han Qiu could not understand.

I just find it strange. I live in this neighborhood and I’ve gotten off work, so why doesn’t he go home and lie in bed?

If you have troubles, you can tell your wife; if you want to relax, you can have a good sleep; if all else fails, you can get some friends out for some barbecue and some beer.

But men just like to stay in the car.

Han Qiu didn't understand at that time because he had just arrived in the city.

Later I understood that it was just recalling the past. When I returned to the home that did not belong to me, I faced my stepmother who treated me coldly and my father who disliked me.

It is difficult for people to empathize with each other, they can only compare their pain with each other.

Han Qiu thought that she would never forget the man who talked to the car, who was in his thirties.

He didn't know the man, but he had heard about him from his father.

I am in a foreign place, working hard to earn money to take out a loan to buy a house, my wife has a strong personality and my child just started kindergarten.

How can you not feel sorry for a man like that? He is the epitome of millions of middle-aged men.

Maybe he is a good employee at work and a good husband and father at home, but in the garage, he is just a man talking to the car, speaking a dialect that not many people in this city can understand.

We cannot ask a person to carry heavy burdens forward without grievances or complaints, regardless of gender.

There are always times when we don’t want to wear a mask. Just taking off the disguise in front of the car and being ourselves is a kindness to the world.

"Why are you envious of us, little goddess? We are just happy in poverty. We envy you too much." Han Qiu asked: "If there is no destination, then we can just drive to wherever we want?"

Su Xiaoqiang nodded heavily, looking tired: "It was better before. Everyone got along well. The biggest conflicts were just because of liking someone or not liking someone. In fact, the rich people you see are sometimes not as good as children. At least children don't have too many dirty things in their minds."

"I shouldn't have listened to these words. They go against the image of you as a little angel in the eyes of your former classmates." Han Qiu said.

"It doesn't matter. I often say these things to my roommates." Su Xiaoqiang rubbed his forehead.

"Well, since you've said so much, I'll say a few words too."

"What do you want to say?"

"Advice." Han Qiu said with a smile: "I don't understand business matters. I want to stand in the position of my old classmate and hope that you will always be that little angel. Making money is a good thing, and being a female entrepreneur is also a good thing, but touching the bottom line is a bad thing. Be careful to protect yourself. You don't have to be a female entrepreneur in life."

"You guy..." Su Xiaoqiang didn't say the second half of the sentence.

She rolled down the car window and saw few pedestrians.

It’s not even lunch time yet, and even a bustling city seems desolate.

The wind blew her hair. The tall buildings were nothing to look at, but she was fascinated by them.

"This isn't the first time I've encountered an impolite request, and I don't think it will be the last." Su Xiaoqiang spoke to the wind: "Some collaborations are just the group's top management trying to trip me up and play tricks on me. Among them are my relatives, and they don't want me to take over my father's position..."

"Troubles will eventually pass. I think you shouldn't study the ideas of the group's top management. You should study the employees, the ordinary people who do the basic work." Han Qiu wanted to give some advice: "If you want to squeeze into the center of power, you don't need the approval of the top management."

"What do you mean?" Su Xiaoqiang didn't quite understand what Han Qiu said.

"It means that you are spending your energy in the wrong place. Your father said that since you rely on his wealth, you should not rely too much on your connections. Maybe he doesn't want you to do it alone, but wants you to cultivate your own connections. Do you know why the emperors of ancient dynasties did not look for counselors in the court, but had to go to the mountains to find hermits who could not be seen?"

"Why?" Su Xiaoqiang studied finance in college.

She herself had little interest in history.

"Because the court is seriously ill, it needs a miracle doctor and strong medicine. Officials of all sizes form a small circle, enclosing their own territory for their own benefit. If you use people from the court to govern the court, the effect will be minimal. This is why we have the imperial examination, the top scholar, and the hermits in the mountains."

Su Xiaoqiang's eyes lit up. She had indeed never heard of such a statement.

Han Qiu continued, "You are going to take over your father's position, not the position of an employee, nor the position of any senior executive. If the group is compared to the court, you are going to be the empress. Wu Zetian, do you know? Power is from the bottom up, and the interests belong to everyone. Use power to suppress those senior executives, and use interests to make them dare not turn against you. Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian, you also need your Di Renjie."

"Do you often use such words to coax girls?" Su Xiaoqiang asked with a smile.

"You guessed it right. I learned this after I went abroad. I used to blush when I talked to girls, and I couldn't open my mouth if I talked about something irrelevant."

"It's hard to tell."

"You got to know me too late."
