Chapter 129 Light and Freedom (Happy New Year's Eve)
"Boss, do you really want to show up in person?"
As he was about to enter the conference hall, Ah Cheng hesitated and said:
"I'm not doubting your decision, but showing up in front of so many people is still a group of employees who have not truly belonged to Wugang. Moreover, they have just experienced such a big change, and it is difficult to control their panic. How about... give them some first?" Want to bribe some people with benefits and wait for them to calm down? "
Quan Heng listened patiently to what he said: "I remember I asked you to buy a book of Yeats's poems for me before. Do you still remember what I said about which line I liked best?"
Ah Cheng was stunned and didn't know why Quan Heng mentioned this, but he still recalled it as he was told:
“…hearts are won, never given?”
“Hearts are not had as a gift but hearts are earned.”
Quan Heng smiled and repeated the original poem, "I don't know if Yeats had a vague sense of love or family affection when he wrote it, but there are many similarities between shopping malls and love scenes.
"Active conquest is always more efficient and effective than passive waiting - I will fight this battle myself."
"Why are you still hesitating about the boss's decision?" Song Zhutan whispered.
Besides, there are all high-level people here, and Wu Gang takes over, that is the best way out.
Now that the chairman comes in person, that is the best step for us!
Ah Cheng moved his lips, slowly calmed down, and pushed forward to open the door of the conference hall——
The light focused on the podium in front. The moment the door opened, the noisy whispers in the entire hall disappeared. Countless eyes were cast from the audience seats, which seemed to be hotter than the scorching light, full of doubts, appraisals, vigilance, and surprise. .
Most of them fell on Quan Heng's lap.
"She's still... still in a wheelchair."
"Is he really the chairman of Wugang? He is so young."
"Hey, is it Song Zhutan who is following her?!"
Song Zhutan stopped under the stage and stared at Quan Heng's figure.
"Buzz——"
Quan Heng raised his hand and pressed lightly on the microphone. A brief buzzing sound spread throughout the hall. The newly raised discussion was gently and powerfully calmed down, and everyone's eyes focused again.
Tang Junyi walked around from the recording room to the second floor of the conference hall, overlooking the entire hall.
"I don't think I need some formal opening remarks." Quan Heng said, his voice gentle and powerful, making people think of the seemingly calm but deeply powerful sea.
"Let me tell you some good news first. The listing application for Modern Rose was approved yesterday, and it will be officially registered for listing next week."
Approval passed! Register for listing? !
The managers below all looked around in disbelief at this moment. This was an earth-shaking change for the company. They had been preparing for it for five or six years! And this change can completely cancel this listing application!
"No wonder we were asked to work all night to prove it," Tang Junyi laughed. "It is indeed a powerful move that plays into his own ambitions."
"Excuse me," the designer in formal employee attire spoke, his voice slightly hollow, "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true, Designer Xu." Quan Heng chuckled.
Xu Sheng was stunned and opened his eyes in disbelief: "You know me?!"
"Of course, designer Xu Shengxu, the fishtail skirt has its own design style. It is simple and elegant without losing feminine charm. The first gauze retro skirt is also very distinctive."
"That work is something few people know about..."
Xu Sheng was pleasantly surprised and blushed under Quan Heng's gentle gaze. She gradually whispered, "You are overly complimentary."
"You're being modest," Quan Heng said with a smile and looked away, "Director Lu Yulu, who is next to Designer Xu, has been well-known for a long time."
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, his originally scrutinizing and vigilant eyes were a little distracted, and he was a little caught off guard.
"Back then, when we were talking about a two-city project with a capital of 100 million in the Gujiang Quan Group, you were in charge, not Quan Lin."
Lu Yu's pupils suddenly shrank and she froze in place. That was the project for which she had all the credit taken away. She was slandered and no one believed it, so she transferred to Modern Rose unconditionally.
"I have read the terms of that project. They are very measured and will not be judged as harsh, but they also take all the resources that can be fought for."
Quan Heng said with a smile on his face, "It's very powerful. Experience, skill, and courage are all indispensable."
She was naturally pretty, but her smile looked more like a painting. Lu Yu's heartbeat skipped half a beat for no apparent reason.
After hearing what Quan Heng said, Lu Yu's stiff expression softened, and he showed a relaxed smile, "You are overly complimentary."
Quan Heng smiled and shook his head slightly.
"Build relationships and break the deadlock."
Tang Junyi whispered, "The flattery of the people below cannot be generalized from the flattery of the people above. Chairman Wugang's recognition is not only close to the people, but also a great encouragement to these professional elites who are familiar with the world. It is also the most important way to gather people's hearts and trust." Fast way.”
The team members behind them watched Quan Heng talk freely and couldn't help but sigh: "She has great control over the field, and the whole rhythm follows her. And she actually remembers the names and deeds of so many people, and she even knows them right."
"Give others respect and you can win respect." Tang Junyi kept his eyes on him, "Controlling the field is inevitable."
"I know that Modern Rose has experienced many storms since its establishment. You cannot accept the betrayal of the leader. This building is in danger and is in an extremely critical moment."
Countless eyes were focused on the audience, and there was only silence in the audience.
"Humanity that has sunk into the abyss of desire often cannot withstand the temptation of interests. Life has countless rules, unspoken frauds, and countless dark and biased injustices. The storm of fate will always ruthlessly destroy the efforts of countless people.
"Our survival and career will always be hindered by explicit or implicit obstacles due to gender. We will be despised, questioned, suppressed, and even discouraged in the fields we love.
"We often underestimate ourselves, and society will always look down on women. But we are usually smart enough, hardworking enough, good at our work, have excellent ideas, and have super execution. But often in such unfavorable circumstances, we forget to praise ourselves proudly, and even be suppressed to the point of having to pretend to be obedient and give up our power."
In this voice, the people in the audience had red eyes, and heard small sobs in the silence.
Song Zhutan tilted her head slightly and reached out to wipe away her tears.
"But your wisdom is extremely useful."
Her voice was gentle and firm, and her clear eyes were as bright as stars.
"So don't hide your wisdom, don't hide your edge, and don't apologize for it. Show your edge and wisdom, and let the vulgar adapt to you."
Quan Heng is in the spotlight, under the lights, as gentle as fragile jade, but his soul is as indestructible as a rock.
"We are all striving for an era, an era where women can have the same status and the same situation as men at birth.
"And I always believe that as women, we will step into all corners of human knowledge and usher in the final victory."
The reverberating voice is warm and powerful, wrapping up the human soul, and like the warm autumn sun, it softens the whole world in the depressed season.
"I hope that before the structural restrictions and oppression are completely eliminated, you will not easily believe that talent is the cause and effect. With your unique advantages and pride, win back your due achievements in the field dominated by men.
"Whether in popular culture or in intimate relationships, we will not be objectified, belittled, attached, or petted, and will be able to receive truly equal love and respect."
"Of course," Quan Heng chuckled kindly, "If it is not necessary, I also wish us to break free from the shackles of love and gain greater freedom."
She sits in a wheelchair, but is much stronger and taller than countless healthy people:
"I hope we can win true independence, happiness and joy in this journey of life, and not be defeated by any storm.
"Whether or not we have achieved excellence in the secular sense, we can have dignity that is not despised, discriminated against, or trampled upon, and have the rights and interests that any human being should enjoy. We will eventually wake up, break free from the shackles of the world, and win true light and freedom."
Her tone is gentle and serious, with the unique tolerance of women, and the unique confidence of a navigator:
"At the same time, please believe that everything that cannot destroy us will make us stronger. "
All the applause roared at this moment, deafening.
Tang Junyi saw Quan Heng calm and open, gentle and indifferent in the eyes of everyone, as if wherever she stood, there was the center of the storm, the only safe eye in all the wind and rain.
The warm morning light shone in from the broken windows of the modern building, illuminating the originally dark lobby, shining on countless faces shedding bitter tears, and on countless oppressed women in the world--
Song Jingyun, dressed in formal clothes, bent down and gently placed lilies in front of the tombstones of Qiu Nishang and Wei Ziyou.
On the cold tombstone, the girl with a smile like a flower was forever sealed in this small photo, sleeping in such a small box.
Song Jingyun lowered his eyes, his tied long hair blew with the wind, watching the rising sun shining on this small cemetery.
A stretched Lincoln slowly stopped behind him, and Quan Heng, who had already left, slowly got out of the car and motioned Ah Cheng to take the things.
"Have you dealt with it? "Song Jingyun tilted his head to watch her approach.
"Well, I brought something else."
Quan Heng said softly, taking the red gift box from Ah Cheng.
"This is..." Song Jingyun was stunned, "Is it the "Rainbow Wedding Dress" they designed?"
"Yes, it was modified based on an antique."
Quan Heng took the wedding dress out of the gift box and looked at the flowers Song Jingyun placed in front of the tomb.
"Her designs all prefer the arrogant and majestic red, why are you so ignorant?"
Song Jingyun said "ah" in confusion, and looked at Quan Heng in confusion as he took out the bright red rose petals from the gift box and sprinkled them in front of the girl's tomb.
The flamboyant red is just like the brilliant life singing loudly, and the dead silence becomes fresh.
Song Jingyun slightly widened his eyes.
Quan Heng slid the lighter and gently placed the flame on the corner of the wedding dress, watching the flame burn the wedding dress and the roses dancing in the firelight.
"They don't need peaceful simplicity. "
Quan Heng looked at the petals flying up from his palm tenderly:
"They are always warm and brilliant."
The red wedding dress set out on the road to return to the arms of its owner. The warm and beautiful roses warmed the cold graves, fluttered in the wind, embraced the boundless earth, and kissed the boundless sky--
There are always so many injustices and unreasonable oppressions against gender in the world.
I only hope that we can come to this world safely and without being screened, receive equal and free education from our parents and family members at birth, and have free thoughts.
We can get rid of the shackles of marriage and childbirth and gain true freedom as individuals. We can break any stereotypes about gender, avoid all forms of gender violence, and be truly happy as women.
Liberate yourself from all kinds of cultural traditions, moral concepts, and belief systems that hate and despise women, and say "I do" and "I don't want" loudly on the basis of free will.
From birth to death, you will not suffer more suffering and injustice than the average human being because of your gender.
