After Huo Zifeng made his threats, he hung up the phone.
“d.a.m.n it!”
Huo Zijun broke into curses, so angry that he almost threw the phone.
He looked up at Xia Xibei and Liu Manhong with an apologetic face, “I’m sorry, it’s all because of me! I dragged the company down!”
Liu Manhong was also annoyed, “What kind of person is that?! How can he say those things?!”
Although Hongyan’s development was much smoother than other companies, they had worked hard!
Of course, it was Huo Zijun who put in the most effort.
Xia Xibei provided the formulas, while Huo Zijun was responsible for the operation and production, and Liu Manhong dealt with the sales.
In this production chain, Huo Zijun was the one who had paid the most.
Moreover, this was the first business that was his own, so his feelings were different.
Liu Manhong and Xia Xibei both had other businesses and put ina lot less effort in comparison, so they were not as excited as Huo Zijun.
“If he was in front of me now, I’d kill him!
Liu Manhong slapped hard on the table, looking fierce.
Xia Xibei did not say anything. She thought for a while before looking at Huo Zijun, “What kind of condition does your grandfather suffer from?”
Huo Zijun smiled bitterly, “Alzheimer’s, also known as senile dementia.”
This kind of elderly disease could not be cured, even by the Huo family. They could only alleviate the symptoms a little.
The family patriarch was now “senile and confused,” and many business matters had been handed off.
The business he gave up was s.n.a.t.c.hed by Huo Zhan and his son, who now led the Huo family.
“Alzheimers…” Xia Xibei was silent for a while. “If your grandfather was healthy, your eldest uncle and cousin would not be able to make trouble, right?”
“Of course not!” Huo Zijun immediately nodded. “In fact, my grandfather is very powerful. If he hadn’t had health problems in the past few years, the Huo family wouldn’t have been…
“In fact, in the beginning, he advised me that if I was willing, he could train me to be the heir.”
speaking of this matter, Huo Zijun was full of regret.
“At that time, Huo Zhan and Huo Zifeng were particularly domineering, and coupled with my parents’ tears, I refused the offer.”
In fact, the old man had a particularly good eye for people.
He knew that Huo Zijun was even stronger than Huo Zifeng and Huo Zhan.
However, Huo Zijun had a problem- he was too soft-hearted!
To hold up a large family, one could not be soft-hearted at all.
Meanwhile, Huo Zijun, once his parents cried to him, had backed off. He could not lead a family.
The old man, after his disappointment, could only train Huo Zifeng. At least he was enterprising!
Huo Zijun also felt ashamed, so he ran to G City.
After coming here for a few years, his parents’ influence on him slowly faded.
He wanted to start his own business, so when Xia Xibei offered to cooperate, he quickly agreed to do so.
He just didn’t expect that something like this would happen now.
If he had been tougher and held up against the pressure to turn down the baton from his grandfather, he wouldn’t be in such a difficult position now.
Listening to his explanation, Xia Xibei and Liu Manhong looked at each other.
“In other words, if your grandfather was well, he could control them?” Xia Xibei asked.
“Yes!” Huo Zijun nodded. “Grandpa is very powerful!”
If not for the old man’s health problems, could Huo Zhan and his son be so arrogant?
“Good.” Xia Xibei tapped the table, “I’ll go check on your grandfather!”
Huo Zijun first froze, then stared.
“What?!”
