On the way back, Christy said, "Mr. Xiao, you're really amazing. The Bix I know has never chatted with anyone for so long. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "He's just trying to flatter me. When a person has wealth and power, what they want the most is health. If it wasn't for my grandfather, the CEO of Time Warner would have left long ago. "
Christy said, "Maybe. Mr. Xiao, that Miss Winslet seems to be interested in you. When she got in the car, even a blind person could see the tenderness and reluctance on her face. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly and said, "I'm having a headache over this. When I was in Yanjing, I had dinner with Christy and was exposed by the media. Later, I flew with her from Yanjing to Los Angeles. Although Wan Qing didn't say anything to me, I know she must be very unhappy. In fact, I still don't understand why Christy likes me. You know, we've only met once. "
Christy said, "Love is a very strange thing. Some people can tell at a glance that this is what they will rely on for their whole life. This is the legendary love at first sight. Some people can see countless times but can't become husband and wife. This is something that can't be helped. Mr. Xiao, what do you think? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "What I want most now is to get rid of Winslet. I don't want this to cause a rift between my family and Wan Qing's. "
Christy nodded and said, "Europe and America are the same as Hua Xia. They're all monogamous. It would be great if polygamy could happen. If you have Winslet, you'll have a super important ally like Time Warner. It'll definitely be very beneficial for your career. "
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said, "Madam Christy, I didn't expect you to know how to joke. Even if it was polygamy, I wouldn't marry Winslet. I was completely devoted to Wan Qing, and my heart couldn't accept another woman. What's more, I'm not the kind of person who would force myself to succeed in my career. This is not a good thing for her or for me. "
Christy's eyes were full of admiration as she said, "Mr. Xiao, Miss Zhao is so lucky to be able to marry you. Among the top 100 billionaires in the world, which one of them didn't have a large number of wives and concubines, both in the open and in the dark? God knows how many they had. Only you, the richest man in the country, not only are you young, but you also protect your wife's chastity. This is too rare. No wonder Miss Winslet likes you. If I were twenty or thirty years younger, I would probably be like her. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Thank you for your praise. Ms. Christie, tomorrow you will bring your team and lawyers to negotiate with Time Warner about the details of the deal. For us, the most important thing is the broadcasting rights in Europe, and it has to be for at least thirty years. After thirty years, I believe that no one will dare to harm us. As for the funds obtained by Paramount Amusement Park, all of them will be transferred to Yunqing Coal Company. I heard that the local Highway Bureau and Railway Bureau have started to build roads and railways, right? "
Christy nodded and said, "Yes, with money, the government has no reason to stop us. Since our coal mine is not far from the nearest road and railway, it will only take half a year for the highway to open to traffic, and a year for the railway. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "There's no need to rush. I still say the same thing, safety is the first priority, followed by the retired soldiers of the Liaoyang Military District. They must be well taken care of. It's all thanks to them that we were able to obtain this treasure. "
Christy said, "Boss, I understand. The key now is to find a suitable general manager as soon as possible. When we go back, I will send you the information of the candidates we have investigated. These materials have all been sorted out, and there's no exaggeration in them. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Okay."
.....
In the other car, Bix and Winslet were also chatting.
"Annie, have you fallen in love with Mr. Xiao?" Bix asked.
Winslet's expression changed and said, "Uncle, did Aunt Megan tell you?"
Bix shook his head and said, "I'm not a fool. How can I not see your feelings for Mr. Xiao? Sigh, Mr. Xiao is indeed a very outstanding young man, but it's a pity that you two met too late. "
Winslet bit her lips and said, "Uncle, are you not optimistic about me and Xiao?"
"Yes. Annie, don't be silly. Although Mr. Xiao is outstanding, he already has a wife and children. I heard that they are very in love. Mr. Xiao can even hand over his business to his wife without signing any property agreement. This is unbelievable in the circle of rich people. Everything shows that he has never thought of divorcing Miss Zhao. Annie, you are very outstanding, but it's basically impossible for Mr. Xiao to abandon his wife and be with you. "
Winslet smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, I'm well aware of what you're saying. It's just that love is really too hard to resist. Uncle, aren't you the same? Aunt has been dead for so many years, but you still haven't married. "
When Bix was young, in order to gain control of the family's wealth and power, he worked hard and neglected his wife and two children.
One day, his wife had a big fight with him because of this. Then, she took the two children, who were seven or eight years old, on a trip. In the end, a traffic accident killed them.
When Bix received the news, he was devastated and regretted it for the rest of his life.
Even today, he didn't marry any other woman.
Later, Bix's sister fell seriously ill and died. His brother-in-law married a noblewoman and treated Winslet very badly, often insulting her.
Bix didn't have any relatives and couldn't bear to see his sister's children being mistreated. So, he took Winslet and treated her as his own. The two of them relied on each other for more than ten years.
Although they were uncle and niece, in reality, they were no different from father and daughter.
Bix sighed deeply and said, "There's a poem in Hua Xia that goes, 'After crossing the sea, there's no water. Apart from Mount Wu, there's no cloud.' Annie, your aunt and I are truly in love. Our situation is different from yours and Mr. Xiao's. There are many outstanding young men in the world. I think that George Trollope, the heir of the Walson Sales Company, who has been pursuing you, is very good in terms of talent, ability, and character. "
The Walson Sales Company was the world's largest supermarket chain. It was similar to Wal-Mart in his previous life. Its market value was in the trillions, and its annual profits were around 100 billion dollars.
Winslet asked, "How is he compared to Mr. Xiao?"
Bix was speechless. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Annie, if you insist on comparing other young men to Mr. Xiao, I'm afraid you won't be able to get married in this lifetime."
Winslet said, "Uncle, you rarely praise people. Why do you have such a high opinion of Mr. Xiao this time?"
Bix sighed. "Mr. Xiao used four years to grow from a poor student to a super business tycoon who controls hundreds of billions of dollars. In my eyes, this is simply a miracle. This time, I flew from New York to meet him. Besides having something to deal with, more importantly, I want to see what kind of person this young man is. "
Winslet asked, "Then what do you think of him?"
Bix thought for a moment and said, "Although Mr. Xiao is humorous, somewhat cynical, and even sloppy, he has many excellent qualities. He was wise, decisive, persistent, understanding of people, broad-minded, and fearless. His entire body faintly emitted a peerlessly powerful aura. Even I was somewhat affected by him. Such a person is born to be a decisive leader. From his previous conduct, he can only be a friend, not an enemy. "
Winslet smiled and said, "Uncle, I think you have all these qualities in him as well. Only that understanding of people, Mr. Xiao, is far better than you. "
Bix nodded. "I admit that. He doesn't care much about all the companies under Mr. Xiao. They are all handed over to the heads of those departments. He really makes the best use of people. I'm afraid this is also why Christy is willing to work for him. In this regard, I am indeed not good enough. Especially now that I am old, my body is beginning to have all kinds of small problems, and my energy is far less than before. I feel a little powerless when doing things. So I thought, once I lay down, what would happen to Time Warner? The result made me shudder. Because I couldn't find a successor to Time Warner. Without me, Time Warner is likely to have big problems. "
Winslet said, "So when you heard Mr. Xiao say that Hua Xia kung fu can prolong one's life, you were moved, right?"
Bix said, "That's right. It's just that I'm not sure if Mr. Xiao is telling the truth. It's amazing that a person can live to 150 or even 200 years old. "
Winslet said, "Uncle, if you want to find the most trustworthy person in the business world, Mr. Xiao will definitely be at the top of the list. All of Hollywood knows that Mr. Xiao's words are more useful than a contract. He definitely won't lie to you. "
Bix nodded and said, "I hope so."
