Gaoleng was stunned. He never expected President Lu to reject this agreement.

Ding ding ding ding, Gaoleng’s phone rang.

“President Gao, we’ve tracked down Xuehou and Quezi. Xuehou is in a sewer. Quezi is currently in the alley at 69 West Open Road.” Eastern Gang Yidao’s phone call was filled with excitement, “You offered so many bounties, and the two groups of Eastern Gang brothers who discovered their whereabouts are excited. Just waiting for your order, are you going to capture them alive, or…”

Gaoleng looked at Lu Yajun and walked a little further away. He whispered, “Capture him alive.”

Hearing these two words, Lu Yajun’s expression changed slightly. He looked at Gaoleng. Gaoleng had just put down the phone when President Lu asked with a sullen face, “The popularity on Weibo was fired by you, right? Which reward is 100 million yuan to protect the popularity of employees?”

“Yes.” Gaoleng nodded honestly.

“Gaoleng, it’s a big deal that President Jian and the others are being followed by assassins. It’s a big deal for Xing Sheng. You should report it to me as soon as possible.” Boss Lu’s face darkened and he slammed the table heavily, “Instead of using the Mafia! I don’t want Xing Sheng to have anything to do with the Mafia!”

After a moment of hesitation, Gaoleng sat beside President Lu and explained, “President Lu, Eastern Gang is not a gangster. They used to be gangsters, but they have been engaged in the gambling industry permitted by law for more than ten years. They are also running winter insects in the mainland.”

“Don’t fool me.” President Lu waved his hand in dissatisfaction, “I’ve been out working twice as long as you. They’ve been cleansed now. That’s right, but they don’t have any other illegal methods?”

That’s true.

Although the Eastern Gang had been operating legally for a long time, their bloodline was still there. How could such a sensitive business as gambling and lottery take legal action? Gamblers sometimes need other methods to do business.

“President Lu, could it be that your first bucket of gold is clean? There isn’t a single one that walks on the edge of the law?” Gaoleng asked and sneered, “Don’t tell me that Xingsheng today doesn’t have anything to do with wandering around the edge of the law?”

President Lu choked. He cleared his throat and drank a mouthful of water. Now that he was the general manager of Xingsheng for half a year, Gaoleng had naturally seen Xingsheng’s bank running water in the past. Early Xingsheng tax evasion or buying black materials was common.

Now, the tax can be sold in packages. Be on good terms with a certain leader of the Inland Revenue Department. If they pack up millions of dollars in taxes a year, they won’t investigate it carefully. This is a common method used by many enterprises, and Xingsheng has done the same up to now.

This kind of tax avoidance is not illegal, but it is also absolutely illegal, wandering on the edge of the law.

“In short, you can’t kill people, right?” President Lu frowned, “The first thing I should do is to call the police.”

“The situation was dangerous. If Eastern Gang hadn’t arrived in time, Jane Xiaodan would have died.” Gaoleng looked at Lu Yajun with a cold face. President Lu’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Xing Sheng had never seen a reporter die before. Although his paparazzi had their legs broken before, following a movie star was not enough to cause people to have killing intent.

Beating up and getting killed were two levels of things.

“Since Xingsheng Magazine has a secret interview program, he needs some grey or black snobbery to protect him. There’s nothing he can do about it.” Gaoleng calmed his mind and patiently explained to President Lu. This boss, who had been busy for most of his life, had always been refined and refined, and Xingsheng Magazine’s development had exceeded his previous settings.

“I know that.” President Lu nodded, “Xingsheng is different from the past. It’s naturally much better to have the Eastern Gang to take care of him.”

Obviously, President Lu was not very disgusted with Eastern Gang. It was also very simple to persuade him. He quickly agreed with Gaoleng’s actions.

“We can only hand it over to the police. You can’t kill anyone, right?” Chief Lu looked at Gaoleng and frowned, “Killing people is illegal. Since they can be captured alive, just give them to the police. Since these two people are assassins sent by others, there must be a murder case on them. There is no way they can escape death. There is no need for you to personally kill them.”

“I won’t kill anyone.” Gaoleng shook his head. “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t kill anyone. It’s against the law. I know that if they hand it over to the police, they will definitely die. But in my opinion, there must be no escape. Otherwise, how can I make an example of them?”

Lu Yajun fell silent.

After a long time, he slowly said, “As long as you don’t kill people, it’s good that you’re the general manager of Xingsheng Magazine. I won’t allow such a serious crime to occur in our magazine. As for the rest, you can do it. After all, it’s really dangerous to secretly visit this kind of work, and I don’t want anything to happen to my employees.”

As he said that, he picked up a cigar and lit it up. He took a deep breath, “Now that I think about it, my ambition isn’t that big. In the past, it was enough for Xingsheng. I just patted the entertainment stars. The magazine is also famous in entertainment magazines. We old fellows have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime and are always happy. Now that the company is big, there are many things to worry about.”

The moment President Lu finished speaking, Gaoleng understood something.

This principle was the most essential reason why he and President Lu’s style of doing things were gradually fading away: different ambitions, different dreams.

President Lu’s ambition was just a mature company, enough to let his family and his old friends live a wealthy life. It was already enough for him to be famous in the entertainment magazine circle. He was old, so what he cared about was no longer how much money he earned, but friendship.

As far as Lu Yajun was concerned, the ambitious Gaoleng had turned the entertainment magazine into a comprehensive magazine in just a year. At first, he was happy, excited, and happy that he had promoted Gaoleng with the right vision.

But now, he realized that the higher he stood, the more complicated things he had to deal with.

The young Lu Yajun was not afraid of complications. He was also as ambitious as Gaoleng, but the old Lu Yajun was the most afraid of complications. He was unwilling to lose face with his old friends for money.

Evidently, the moment Gaoleng made his move, he directly tore Old Yang apart. Old Yang said that he was going to retire. Even though he was his former opponent, the two of them had left Jianghu and wanted to sit down and drink a cup of tea and play a game of chess when they saw each other again.

However, Gao Leng was about to knock down Old Yang’s Feng Xing Magazine. Lu Yajun, who had worked hard to knock Xingsheng Magazine out, understood Old Yang’s sadness at this moment. He was unwilling.

Money, he had earned enough. What he wanted was the respect of society.

Obviously, Gaoleng’s decisive method of hollowing out the other party’s talents made him worry that the people in this circle, especially the old man, would poke him in the back.

“Gaoleng, if you make Xingsheng bigger, will you buy other media of the same type?” President Lu asked.

“Of course.” Said Gaoleng confidently.

‘”Then do you know that if you buy other media, like you want to buy Feng Xing Magazine, that’s no problem? And what’s wrong with you is that you destroyed a thriving magazine with a dirty trick. You destroyed it, not Feng Xing Magazine itself. You buy it again. There’s a fundamental difference, right?” President Lu’s words were very heavy.

“Right.” Gao Leng nodded.

Acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions, often appear in a company on the verge of bankruptcy, at this time there is a company willing to buy themselves, that is happy, in this case no one will point fingers.

Destroying an enterprise directly and buying it would definitely cause a sensation in the financial sector, and many financial reporters would criticize it. Once everyone knew that Xingsheng Magazine had paid 200 million to empty Feng Xing Magazine, Lu Yajun’s circle would have a lot of people poking him in the back.

He said, “Old Lu, when you get old, you actually have such vicious methods. You are already a few old friends. Can’t you eat your food while I eat mine?”

This violated Lu Yajun’s taboo: what he wanted now was not money, but social status.

It seemed that they could only go their separate ways. Looking at the ambitious Gaoleng in front of him, Lu Yajun said this in his heart.

Can we only go our separate ways?

At this moment, Gaoleng also said this in his heart.
