Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

Later, Tan Zongming returned to China to develop his business and became a business tycoon. He was the kind of business tycoon who could cause turmoil in the companies of Shanghai with just a stomp of his feet. He wanted Andy to return to China many times to help him handle his business. After all, Andy was really a talent.

But Andy has always been reluctant to return to China, because she is not suitable for life in China, and she is unwilling to face the past. Until this year, Andy needed to return to China to deal with some matters, so he agreed to his invitation.

Of course, although Lao Tan didn't say what it was, Han Tao knew very well that Andy came back for his brother.

This is her heartache. In her memory, she was separated from her younger brother because she was adopted, so she felt that she had abandoned her younger brother.

…………

Andy, Lao Tan, and Han Tao all finished their dinner almost at the same time, so after Han Tao and Lao Tan walked out of the restaurant, they happened to run into Andy who had just sent Wei Wei to the subway station, and heard some of their conversation.

Seeing that she was quite happy, Lao Tan asked with concern, "Andy, I didn't mean to bother you guys in the restaurant just now. How do you feel about this netizen?"

"It's okay, Han Tao saw it, a middle-aged man, who is indeed a little different from what I imagined.

But Singularity looks very safe, I like his speaking style very much, I should try to be friends! "

Andy thought for a long time before responding to Lao Tan's concern and inquiry.

But Old Tan responded with a very dissatisfied expression: "So we can be friends now? Andy, you're too arbitrary. Mr. Wei may not be as good as you think!"

"I think it's okay. You were the one who told me to socialize with more people, weren't you? But when it comes to making friends, isn't it enough to just be compatible?"

Andy refuted Lao Tan's words, but considering that he had previously told Han Tao about this netizen and asked him for his opinion, he asked him again:

"Han Tao, what do you think of Wei Wei?"

"That depends on how you look at it. If you're planning on making close friends, I don't think he's a good fit, even though Mr. Wei is a pretty good person!"

Han Tao smiled slightly and stated his opinion.

Andy shook his head and asked in confusion, "Why do you say that? This isn't a deal. Aside from being a little older, I think everything else is fine!"

"Then I'll analyze it for you. First of all, Mr. Wei is very defensive and suspicious of others. Of course, everyone has concerns, as long as they're not excessive.

Second, this person is too cunning and scheming. Have you paid attention to his clothes?

The shirt is Prada and the jacket is Gucci. Although he is dressed very modestly, he is obviously wearing designer clothes, but he insists on taking the subway. It is obvious that he is wary of you.

Of course, it is normal for netizens to be a little wary of each other when they meet for the first time, but I think they should not behave like this after they meet, because someone like him will recognize you wearing Armani, so it would be more normal for him to take a taxi and leave.

For example, I just heard you say you wanted to drive him, which is a normal behavior after meeting.

So, I guess he's doing this to test you, and this temptation won't stop until he knows your background well enough."

After listening to Han Tao's analysis, Andy said with some doubts: "You said that Singularity is wearing famous brands? Why didn't I see it? It looks very ordinary!"

"It's indeed very ordinary, but I guarantee it's all true. This bit of insight is still informative!"

After finishing speaking, Han Tao pondered for a moment, and then sighed: "How should I put it, we say different things at different stages of dating, and there should be changes before and after we meet.

If there were too much calculation or calculation involved, it would be boring, because between friends, whether they are just ordinary friends or boyfriend and girlfriend, the most important thing is sincerity."

"What you said seems to make sense, but don't worry, I just want to make friends, I don't think about how it will develop in the future.

Besides, with my IQ, no matter what he thinks, he won't get any advantage!" After saying that, Andy looked at Han Tao and Lao Tan confidently.

Han Tao smiled faintly and said, "I won't argue with you on this issue. With your intelligence, it's indeed easy to deal with him, but you still have to be more careful, otherwise you will easily get hurt!"

"Injured? No, how could I be injured!"

Hearing this, Andy didn't think much of it, but Old Tan looked at Han Tao in surprise. He could see that Han Tao had absolutely no other thoughts about Andy, and his tone and eyes showed only plain concern, so he felt as if they had met too late.

It can be said that they have the same idea. Although a meal does not take long, it is enough for them to know.

Therefore, Lao Tan felt that Andy and Wei Wei were not suitable for further development, and it would be best to nip all uncertainties in the bud.

Because Old Tan knows better than Andy what kind of person this Wei Wei is. He knows that a person like Wei Wei cannot bear Andy's life experience, and when facing danger, this kind of person will first consider affirmation. be yourself.

However, Lao Tan did not have any bad opinions about Wei Wei. As long as he did not hurt Andy, nothing else mattered.

He had seen too much of the filth in the business world. Wei Wei started from scratch, which was not easy. He had experienced many ups and downs. Although he had done some unkind things, who hasn't done one or two things that go against their conscience?

There is no room for maneuver in today's business battlefield, so most people really dare not be careless because they cannot afford to lose.

Chapter 240: Pulling Lao Tan to Handong for Investment

Han Tao, Andy and Tan Zongming chatted all the way back to Shengxuan. After entering Andy's office, they discussed the details of the acquisition of Hongxing together and were pulled by the two to attend an emergency meeting.

Although the project to acquire Red Star is currently in its early stages and the main work is still on Andy's side, once Andy's preparatory work is completed, Han Tao's team will be needed to join the team, because the next step is the due diligence stage.

Next, Shengxuan needs to set up a due diligence team. Han Tao's legal team and Andy's accountants will work together, together with the asset appraisal agency, to investigate the Red Star Group.

This includes commercial due diligence, financial due diligence, and legal due diligence. Finally, based on the investigation results, Red Star will be re-evaluated and a decision will be made accordingly.

Therefore, this huge project will take a very long time, which requires the main persons in charge, such as Lao Tan, the president, Andy, the chief financial officer, and Han Tao, the chief legal advisor, to constantly communicate, adjust, and formulate plans.

After finally ending the discussion and sending away those subordinates who had made Andy throw documents in anger, Lao Tan helplessly advised:

"Andy, you can't control your work state again. We agreed to have an impromptu meeting to let Han Lu know the progress. Why are you so anxious again?

They're not like you, who's completed countless orders like this, nor are they like Han Lu, who's completed mergers and acquisitions for many large companies. So you have to give them time to learn. After all, they haven't experienced such high-intensity work, so it's normal for them to not be able to keep up with your pace!"

"Huh... Lao Tan, Han Lu, I'm sorry, I just feel it's a shame to waste such precious time, so once I get into work mode, I tend to be more serious!"

Andy closed the folder, took a sip of the water Old Tan handed him, and continued, "Actually, I don't want to be so anxious, but to make an acquisition plan, each department must have detailed input and budget estimates. The estimate was originally completed and we could move on to the next step, but because of Liu Siming's data error, we have to start all over again!

"This person is also not serious about his work. He's always in the office checking stocks. If this continues, I'll have to replace him. Otherwise, it will really delay progress!"

Old Tan knew Andy's abilities very well, and he also had some understanding of his subordinates, so he didn't try to persuade him, but nodded in approval and said:

"You are the person in charge of this acquisition plan. Since it is a matter entrusted to you, you have the right to kick out anyone you feel is unsuitable. I support this unconditionally.

But there is one thing I must remind you of. No matter what time, don't let yourself get so angry. If you hurt your body because of anger, it would not be worth it.

Just think of this as training new people in advance, accumulating experience for future orders. The company's pace of expansion will not stop. If there are good projects, I still hope that you can continue to help me. Don't get angry at people who are not worth it! "

"I'm not angry. I just think these people don't know how to cherish opportunities. This is definitely a rare experience for them, but I'm really disappointed. He's not serious enough about his work!"

Andy shook his head, unable to understand. If such a large acquisition project was successful, it would be a highlight on the resumes of everyone involved.

Tan Zongming had known her for so many years and had worked with her for a long time, so of course he knew what she was thinking, so he didn't say anything.

Seeing that Andy and Lao Tan had finished the question, Han Tao thought for a moment and said, "

"Old Tan, speaking of good projects, I actually have one, but it's not in Shanghai. I wonder if you're interested?"

"Tell me about it. That project that you, Attorney Han, think is good must be successful!"

After saying that, Old Tan looked at Han Tao, and Andy also turned to look at him with great interest, wanting to hear what good project it was.

Han Tao smiled and said, "It's a project in Jingzhou City, Handong Province. Old Tan should be familiar with it. As the provincial capital, Jingzhou City has experienced significant development in the past two years.

In particular, the Guangming Peak project, which is led by the city's top leader, has received strong support from the province and is expected to invest 28 billion yuan. Just think about how much economic benefits it can bring. This is a big cake.

If this project goes smoothly, Jingzhou's construction capacity will be greatly increased, and the entire city will become a huge construction site, which will surely attract businessmen from all over the world to come and make money.

Now that this project has just started, it's a particularly good opportunity. If nothing unexpected happens, the companies involved will definitely make a lot of money."

"Handong?" Old Tan looked at Han Tao thoughtfully and said slowly, "Han Tao, I won't beat around the bush. Since you brought it up, it means you have an idea. I just want to ask, will your Red Star Capital and Hantao Investment participate?"

"Of course, Handong is one of my foundations. I won't miss such a good opportunity, and the He family won't miss it either."

Han Tao nodded, giving Old Tan the answer he wanted to hear, and then continued, "Of course, we still need to conduct a detailed investigation to know the exact situation. I have already asked someone to conduct research and will give you a copy of the information later.

And I will go back in person in a few days. There is a case there that needs to be handled. It is a good opportunity to contact the top leader of Jingzhou City. After all, we are acquaintances. "

Hearing this, Old Tan looked at Han Tao and nodded, saying, "Okay, then we'll talk when you come back. If possible, I'll tell the board of directors that Shengxuan won't miss such a good opportunity!"

Han Tao nodded and planned to chat for a while, but outside Andy's office, Lao Tan's secretary suddenly knocked on the door and walked in, reporting to him:

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Yan is here, in your office!"

"Okay, I got it. You go take care of it. Andy and I will be right there!"

After saying that, Old Tan looked at Andy. The two looked at each other. Old Tan seemed to be hesitant to speak, and looked at her worriedly. He also considerately handed her another bottle of water.

Andy didn't speak, but just drank half a bottle of water in one breath. She had already guessed that it must be the younger brother's business, otherwise Lao Tan wouldn't be so hesitant, so she was a little apprehensive, didn't speak, just nodded.

Seeing this, Han Tao guessed what was going on and quickly stood up to say goodbye. He knew that the Old Yan the secretary was referring to was Yan Luming, Lao Tan's long-time friend. The two had a very good personal relationship, otherwise he would not have given him the task of investigating Andy's life experience and finding Andy's biological brother.

At the same time, I also admire Lao Tan even more. He is a man who is extremely meticulous. He takes care of Andy in every possible way. He knows that Andy will drink a lot of water when he is nervous, so he hands it to him at the right time.

Old Tan also knew that Andy didn't want too many people to know her background, so he nodded in response to Han Tao and sent him to the company door.

After leaving Shengxuan, Han Tao looked at the time, then called Zhu Suosuo, telling her that he would not work overtime today and asked her not to go to social events with Yang Ke, and that they should both go back early.

After all, I had promised Jiang Nansun and her mother that I would go back to have dinner and warm up today.

After hanging up the phone, Han Tao returned to Mingtang Law Firm to prepare for the afternoon senior partners' meeting.

Just as Wendy had previously reported, Mingtang planned to hold an open election at this year's law firm conference. In other words, after these senior partners voted and made their decision, the competition for Mingtang's senior partner could begin.

This is a great encouragement to the law firm, especially to lawyers He Gang, Jiang Qiong, Chen Ran and others. They are all veterans of the law firm with rich qualifications and experience, and they are all second-level partners, so they have great opportunities.

Originally, Lawyer He and Lawyer Jiang had a lot of advantages, including Bai Ning from Group 1, because their performance in the first half of the year was all over 15 million, and there was still one month left before the half-year mark.

However, Chen Ran's performance was less than five million, especially after the incident with his father Chen Wenguang, it was even more difficult to make ends meet. Fortunately, with the joining of Han Tao, Group 2 was able to come back to life.

It is estimated that after Chen Ran finishes working on Jingyan's infringement case, his performance will soar. Coupled with Han Tao's upcoming series of major moves, everyone in Group 2 will be very busy in the next year. Compared with other lawyers, they are simply far behind.

Chapter 241 Andy knows his brother's whereabouts

After sending Han Tao off, Lao Tan returned to the company and first met Lao Yan. After understanding the situation, he asked him not to tell Andy too clearly for now, as he was afraid that Andy could not accept it. Then he went to find Andy and took her to his office.

As soon as he entered, Andy said to Lao Yan, "Lao Yan, how is my brother? Has he been found? Is he still alive?"

"Andy, don't be anxious. Sit down first and listen to what Old Yan has to say!"

As he said that, Lao Tan gave her a bottle of water and signaled her not to worry.

When Andy saw Lao Tan handing him water again, his heart sank. He realized that things were not simple, so he continued to ask:

"Old Yan, what's going on? It's okay. I'm mentally prepared. Just tell me directly!"

Hearing this, Lao Yan and Tan Zongming exchanged a glance, and when he saw him nod, he replied:

"Miss Andy, you guessed right, I did find your brother."

As he spoke, Old Yan handed a file bag to Andy and continued, "This time when I went to Daishan, I first checked the mental hospital and welfare home in Daishan again, but still couldn't find him. However, God will not let down those who work hard, and I finally found him in a nursing home."

"Nursing home? Lao Yan, why is my brother in a nursing home?"

Andy asked as he excitedly looked at the information and photos in the file bag.

Lao Yan organized his words for a while, then slowly said, "This is really quite complicated. Didn't I say before that your brother was adopted from the welfare home?

But because your brother had communication problems, that family planned to send him back. Unexpectedly, not long after you raised your brother in their home, the welfare home closed, so they just abandoned him.

However, after being thrown away, he was sent back by the police, and then the family threw him away again. This happened several times. Finally, the family had no choice but to spend some money and place him in a nursing home.

After getting the news, I also went to this nursing home and met the child. He did have some mental problems. He was always in a daze alone, muttering something to himself.

But he has a good personality and everyone in the nursing home likes him very much. Director Xiuyuan, who has been taking care of him, said that other people who have also come into contact with the child think that he may just be autistic.

I think this is possible, because the child has a very good memory, especially sensitive to numbers. Of course, a comprehensive examination is needed to confirm the specific situation!"

"I thought I had a problem with my memory for numbers, and sure enough..."

Lao Yan's words instantly reminded Andy of her childhood, and she also remembered that she and her brother memorized the value of pi and carved it on the wall with nails.

Thinking of this, Andy burst into tears. She was so happy that she cried and said:

"Great! I finally found my brother. Lao Yan, can you give me his address? I want to go look for him!"

Looking at Andy who was getting more and more excited, Lao Tan said distressedly: "Andy, you have to calm down. I understand your feelings, but your brother has just been found, and the situation is like this. The nursing home also needs to make some arrangements.

And Lao Yan just told me that this nursing home is a welfare institution and was about to close down, but someone recently donated some new money, so the nursing home is arranging expansion. It is a bit messy and cannot be taken care of for the time being.

Besides, the dean has a very good relationship with your brother and has taken care of him personally for so many years, so we can't rush him at this critical moment. It's reasonable for us to let them prepare. But don't worry, as soon as they have made the arrangements, I will notify you immediately, okay!"

“Hmm… Hmm… Umm…”

Andy nodded. This long-awaited news completely broke her defenses. At this moment, her heart was filled with mixed emotions. For a moment, she could only cry and could not say anything else.

Seeing this, Tan Zongming exchanged glances with Lao Yan, and the two of them stood up and left tacitly. Then he instructed his secretary not to disturb anyone, leaving Andy space and time to adjust and vent her emotions.

Two flowers are in bloom. In the Victory Building, which is also located in the Lujiazui business district, Qu Xiaoxiao, who was busy working alone in the company, turned around and found that her father had come. She put down the box in her hand in surprise and ran over to greet him.
