Chapter 1314 Don't be a slave to money

When He Yuanjiang said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Sometimes the world of adults is like this. Everyone has a very good relationship, but because the distance is too far and they have their own lives, it may be difficult to meet each other for three to five years."

Then, he said seriously: "Although my lover and I rarely meet your mother later, our relationship is still very deep. When your mother was alive, my lover and I regarded her as close friends. It's a pity that she is such an excellent person but died young..."

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help feeling sad deep down.

The people around their parents all have high praise for them, but unfortunately, I know very little about the deeds of both of them.

In fact, until his parents passed away, Ye Chen was just a child who had just entered the second grade of elementary school.

Children of that age have a very simple and superficial vision of looking at problems and the world. They only know that their parents love themselves very much, but they don’t know what kind of person their parents are.

Sometimes, Ye Chen envies Gu Qiuyi's father Gu Yanzhong.

Because he had known his father much longer than himself.

He also knows his father much deeper than himself.

Now, he envies He Yuanjiang again.

Because he felt that He Yuanjiang knew his mother much deeper than himself.

Seeing Ye Chen's expression was lonely, He Yuanjiang couldn't help but step forward and patted his shoulder, comforting him: "It's been so long since the incident, so don't be sad for it anymore. Your mother's life in the first twenty years was really too brilliant. Our classmates at that time said that it must be because God lacked such an excellent person, so he let her go to heaven early."

Ye Chen nodded gently.

Regarding his parents, he had regrets in addition to sadness. The most regrettable thing was that as their children, he lacked enough understanding of their lives.

He Yuanjiang smiled at this time and said, "Let's talk about you, why have you become the chairman of Dihao Group now? Haven't you returned to the Ye family?"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I have lived in Jinling for nearly twenty years and have been a son-in-law in the Xiao family for four years. The Ye family only found me last year."

"As for the Dihao Group, it was also a gift they gave me. In addition to the Dihao Group, they also gave me 10 billion cash as compensation. However, this doesn't seem to be of much significance to me. I have not touched the money from the Dihao Group so far. As for the 10 billion, I only paid the medical expenses for my life-savior at first, and bought a car and a necklace for my wife, and then I never spent that money later."

Speaking of this, Ye Chen sighed lightly and continued, "But it doesn't make sense to say this. Although I don't want to take the money from the Ye family, I have to admit that if the Ye family doesn't give me these, I might still be a useless son-in-law who is criticized by thousands of people and despised by thousands of people..."

He Yuanjiang sighed and said, "You have suffered so much for so many years. Actually, I would like to say a pertinent thing. If your parents are still alive, you must be the richest person in the world. Moreover, although I don't know your father, I have also heard of some of your father's deeds. Back then, the Ye family was able to achieve this situation today with your parents!"

"I can say very responsibly that at least 50% of the assets of the Ye family are credited to your parents, and the Ye family gave you is not even one-tenth of the assets of the Ye family. After all, they give you less!"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Now I actually hope to create a world by myself. After all, I still don't know whether my parents' death had anything to do with the Ye family, so I hope to accumulate enough strength to surpass the Ye family in all aspects, or even the Su family. In this way, once the murderer who killed my parents was found in the future, I will be confident that they will pay the price."

He Yuanjiang suddenly realized and blurted out: "That's why you want to do ocean transportation?"

"Yes." Ye Chen nodded and said, "I don't know how much you know about the Su family. The Su family and my father were not very good at dealing with each other. The Su family even set up an anti-Ye alliance and united many other families to fight my father together. Therefore, the Su family is also an enemy in my eyes. Now the Su family's ocean-going transportation business has completely stranded. I think it is a good opportunity for me to take advantage of the situation. So I had this idea."

As he said that, Ye Chen said again: "I originally wanted Dongxue to take over this business, but he told me that doing this business requires a very in-depth understanding of international trade and the laws and regulations of major trading countries around the world and tax policies. She felt that she was not competent, so she recommended you to me..."

"It just so happened that we just met last night, so I came here to visit today and wanted to ask you to come out to help, but I didn't expect you to be my mother's former classmate."

He Yuanjiang was silent for a moment and said, "Ye Chen, you now choose ocean transportation as the entry point, and this judgment is very correct."

"In the future, the proportion of global trade will definitely increase. More and more large manufacturing companies have begun to build global supply chains. Take the automobile industry as an example. A car uses steel made of Brazil and Australia iron ore, rubber native to Southeast Asia, high-precision electronic equipment and control modules from the United States and Japan, and then it is completed with other upstream and downstream industrial chains and manual labor."

"Most of these, the transportation of raw materials, spare parts and complete vehicles relies on shipping."

"Not to mention the large industry of automobiles, even clothing is now a global supply chain. You can buy a coat that costs two or three hundred yuan, and you may use cotton made from the United States, fabrics made from China, zippers made from Japan, and then use labor from Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Romania. Finally, you can ship from these producing countries to the country and finally sell them to you."

"With more and more such global supply chains, the market for ocean transportation will become better and better. Now the Su family has just been revoked, which is the key to accelerating the reshuffle of the domestic ocean transportation industry."

Ye Chen nodded and asked, "Professor He, I wonder if you are willing to help me? Just ask about the treatment questions!"

He Yuanjiang suddenly became melancholy, sighed, and said, "Ye Chen, I will say something to you with my heart. If I had not given up on my job, I might now work as a CEO in a Fortune 500 company in the world, and even like Apple's CEO Tim Cook, I could easily earn over 100 million US dollars a year. The reason why I gave up my high income and chose to teach in college was because I swear in front of my lover's grave that I would only teach and educate people in the second half of my life, no longer engage in business, and no longer run for money..."

Ye Chen asked in surprise: "Professor He, has your lover passed away?"

"Well..." He Yuanjiang sighed: "Hey, it was so-called so-called career aspirations back then. All the classmates around him have become executives and even partners of large groups. Many of them have successfully started their own businesses and become wealthy people worth billions of dollars. I am not willing to be the last one, so I work very hard, staying at home for less than a month..."

"At that time, I flew around the world in first class every day, and I had no time to care about my wife and children's lives."

"Once, when I was on a business trip in Japan to discuss a project, my wife called me and told me that she had always had a headache recently, but I didn't have time to take care of this. I just asked her to take some ibuprofen, or go to the hospital to see a doctor..."

"But who would have thought that half a year later, she would leave me because of a malignant brain tumor..."

Speaking of this, He Yuanjiang's eyes were slightly red and he said with great remorse: "From the day she was diagnosed, I realized the fatal mistakes I made in the past few years."

"Money is important, but money is by no means omnipotent. Money cannot replace love, family affection, and health."

"No matter how much money I make, I can't replace my lover's life, nor can my daughter's true forgiveness for me..."
