Chapter 833 WPG Father and Son Heart-to-Heart Talk: The Youngest Son of a Wealthy Family! Two Unexpected Events in the Inheritance and Development of the An Family!
Around 9 p.m., the Gulfstream G650ER landed safely at Shengqing International Airport.
Members of the 24-hour security company were already waiting for An Wuyang on the tarmac when a convoy of five black Audi A8L and A6L vehicles departed from the airport.
Around 10 p.m., on his way to the headquarters of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group, An Wuyang sent a message to An Huchun in advance.
An Wuyang: Dad, are you done with your work?
After An Wuyang sent the message, he did not receive a reply from An Huchun. It seems that An Wuyang is still busy.
An Wuyang didn't mind that the message wasn't replied to immediately.
About ten minutes later, just a few minutes past 10 p.m., An Wuyang received a reply from An Huchun.
Anhuchun: You're back?
'All is well: We should arrive at the group headquarters in a few more minutes.'
Anhuchun: Okay, I'll pack up first.
A few minutes later, a convoy of five Audis entered the headquarters of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group, where Anhuchun was already waiting at the entrance of the headquarters building.
When An Huchun saw the Audi convoy arrive, he walked over.
An Wuyang got out of the car and greeted An Huchun first, "Dad."
Anhuchun nodded, "Let's go back to Tianjingyan."
"Where's Mom?" An Wuyang asked casually.
“She’s not going back today,” Anjuchun replied.
An Wuyang didn't ask any more questions. It seems that today's meeting was truly between father and son?
The Airbus H-225 flew through the night and arrived at the Tianjingyan medicinal herb planting base in less than half an hour.
The small canteen here had already prepared barbecue ingredients, including Wagyu beef imported from Australia, various seafood, and various fresh meat skewers, and the charcoal fire had been lit in advance.
An Shicang greeted them proactively, "Chairman An, President An, good evening."
Anhuchun responded with an invitation, "Shicang, let's have a couple of bottles together later."
An Shicang subconsciously looked at An Wuyang. Now that An Wuyang was in charge at dawn, and with this father-son barbecue party, he naturally had to watch An Wuyang's expression.
Since An Huchun had extended the invitation, An Wuyang naturally did not refuse. He smiled and invited, "How about we have a drink together, Uncle?"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony," An Shicang replied politely.
An Huchun and An Wuyang quickly selected their ingredients, and An Shicang also selected the ingredients he wanted to eat. Afterward, the three of them returned to the small canteen.
An Wuyang asked first, "Dad, has Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceuticals started volunteer trials yet?"
Anhuchun responded negatively, "Not yet."
“We requested that they conduct detailed gene sequencing on the three volunteers,” An Huchun added.
An Wuyang asked in confusion, "What's the purpose of gene sequencing?"
“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.” Anhuchun expressed the meaning of ‘too lazy to talk and listen’.
He was exchanging professional knowledge with An Wuyang; wasn't that like casting pearls before swine?
An Wuyang was slightly embarrassed.
An Shicang lowered his head and pretended not to hear.
“Engineer Fu asked me to ask you something today,” An Huchun changed the subject.
"What is it?" An Wuyang immediately replied.
"He's asking about things in the Taebaek Mountains. Can you still get any Korean ginseng from there?" An Huchun asked.
An Wuyang immediately retorted, "What about Korean ginseng? Have you perhaps discovered something new?"
An Huchun answered affirmatively, "We have indeed made some progress in our research on Korean ginseng, but we're out of raw materials. Do you have any way to get some more Korean ginseng from the Taebaek Mountains?"
An Wuyang responded hesitantly, "I'm not sure."
"The situation over there is a bit complicated now," An Wuyang added, explaining the problems they encountered in the Taibai Mountains.
An Huchun and his son An Wuyang chatted, while An Shicang went to check on the ingredients at the barbecue grill.
About ten minutes later, the fresh black pork shoulder, Australian Wagyu beef, and charcoal-grilled black tiger prawns were served by the barbecue chef.
The father and son stopped discussing work matters and started drinking with An Shicang.
An Wuyang rarely drinks outside, but today he was drinking beer with An Huchun, and An Shicang was naturally just there to accompany him.
An Huchun may have been affected by the criticism on the internet. The barbecue skewers had barely been served when he pulled An Shicang into a drinking contest, and the two of them quickly finished three bottles.
An Wuyang, standing to the side, hadn't even finished a single cup!
It has to be said that An Huchun knew how to take care of An Wuyang; whenever he wanted to drink alone, he would drag An Shicang over to keep him company.
When An Wuyang saw that An Huchun had drunk two more bottles of beer, he reminded him, "Dad, drink less."
Anhuchun, slightly drunk, said, "I'm not happy today."
“There are all sorts of silly netizens on the internet, Dad, why are you getting angry with them?” An Wuyang comforted him.
Anhuchun quipped, "Those netizens are really stupid!"
"He doesn't even have a basic brain!" Anhuchun continued to complain.
"They only know how to nag about me online, but don't they ever think about our family situation?" An Huchun was clearly very dissatisfied with the sarcastic remarks from these silly netizens.
The information about An Jia and Wu Gengtian is not a secret on the internet; in fact, the details have already been exposed.
"I am the youngest son in the family!" Anhuchun raised his voice.
“My older brother is almost seven years older than me,” Anhuchun said, slightly drunk.
"Back then, the family was mainly grooming my eldest brother to be their successor," An Huchun said, seemingly speaking from the heart under the influence of alcohol.
“Wu Yang, you are our only son. You should know what kind of education you received from childhood.” An Huchun steered the conversation toward An Wu Yang.
“Your mother has been carefully educating you since you were little, and I am also working hard to cultivate you into a qualified successor,” An Huchun added.
“But I’m different from you. I received a different education growing up. I’m the youngest son in the family, and there was no intention of raising me to inherit the group.” An Huchun repeated that he was the youngest son.
An Zhongqian was nearly seven years older than An Huchun, which meant that An Zhongqian was entering junior high school while An Huchun had not yet started primary school, resulting in a significant gap in their educational progress.
An Jiaxing did indeed focus on cultivating his eldest son, An Zhongqian, while simultaneously spoiling his younger son, An Huchun. This led to a disastrous situation!
The eldest son, whom they had been grooming, developed rebellious tendencies, while the pampered younger son was unable to take on the family business.
An Wuyang had heard some things about his uncle An Zhongqian before. For example, his uncle didn't like being arranged by his family. In order to completely fight against his family, he was willing to give up his inheritance rights or even sever ties with his family.
An Wuyang couldn't help but ask, "Dad, I'm actually a little curious, why didn't Grandpa treat you two equally when he was raising you?"
Anhuchun drank a glass of beer before speaking, "There are advantages to both focusing on training and treating everyone equally."
“In our family’s case, you only see the risks of focused training. If your grandfather had also trained me in business from a young age, wouldn’t you think that would have been a better choice?” Anhuchun asked.
An Wuyang hesitated slightly, "Isn't that right? After all, having a backup means that if something unexpected happens, at least there's another option."
"What if nothing unexpected happens?" Anhuchun asked in return.
“Let’s assume another scenario: your uncle complies with the family’s arrangements and takes over the Wugengtian Group. But your grandfather also carefully trained me. Would I be satisfied with your uncle taking over Wugengtian directly?” An Huchun asked.
“Even if I am satisfied and have accepted the status quo, now that it has come to your generation, your uncle only has one daughter, and you are the head of our family. So, how will the control of the group be handled in your generation?” An Huchun raised more questions.
“Have there been few cases of family infighting throughout history?” Anhuchun sighed.
“The offspring training program we chose was just an accident. After the accident happened, your grandfather actually tried to remedy the situation, but it took time,” An Huchun sighed again.
“A person’s personality is actually formed at a very young age, which is why some young people like to say things like ‘it takes a lifetime to heal from childhood’ online,” Anhuchun explained.
“I received a happy education when I was a child, while your uncle received a strict education. When something unexpected happened to your uncle, how could your grandfather possibly pull me from the happy education route to the strict education route?” Anhuchun took a deep breath.
“Actually, even if something unexpected happens to your uncle, under normal circumstances, our family still has a backup plan, and that is you!” An Huchun looked at An Wuyang again.
"Me?" An Wuyang asked, slightly puzzled.
"Do you remember how strict your grandfather was with you when you were little?" An Huchun asked.
An Wuyang recalled that although his memory was somewhat hazy, he did remember some things.
"It seems so." An Wuyang nodded in affirmation.
“Because according to the original plan, your education was originally intended to cultivate you into the next leader of the Five Eyes Sect,” An Huchun explained.
“I’m just a transitional phase. Once you’ve matured, I’ll put you in charge of the daytime,” Anhuchun added.
“That’s why I will readily hand over control of the group to you when you said before that you wanted to take control of Wugengtian,” An Huchun explained.
An Wuyang suddenly realized.
That's it!
"It's a pity that your grandfather had another accident and didn't live to see you grow up, which is why I, the unqualified heir, came to power and almost bankrupted the group." An Huchun said with a hint of self-deprecation.
People often say that Anhuchun is silly, stupid, and naive.
But is it possible that Anshu Haru never received any relevant education from childhood?
The An family's succession plan was disrupted by two major unexpected events, which led to the rise of the unqualified An Huchun.
As for why An Zhongqian didn't return to the An family...
Anyone who can ask such a question is even more naive than Anhuchun.
"Fortunately, you were well-educated from a young age. Although you were quite mischievous when you were young, it seems that your grandfather's strictness and your mother's education have all played a very good role," An Huchun sighed.
An Wuyang did not refute.
In fact, even without Brother Tongzi's help to cheat, An Wuyang felt that he could also reverse the problem at dawn; it was simply a matter of how to choose.
With Tongzi Ge around, An Wuyang can be made more humane and full of human touch.
But without Brother Tongzi, An Wuyang could have secured Wugengtian first, and then talked about ideals and righteousness.
"Dad, let me toast you, thank you!" An Wuyang raised his glass.
Ancho Haru retorted, "Why should I thank you?"
"Thank you for your understanding and willingness to step down, and thank you for bearing so much pressure without passing it on to me!" An Wuyang said sincerely.
When An Wuyang was in high school, the development of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group was actually declining, but neither An Huchun nor Li Wenya ever brought these problems home.
Even though they taught An Wuyang how to manage the company, they didn't pass the pressure onto him.
However, some families like to say:
'How much suffering have we endured for you?'
'If it weren't for you, we would have done this and that.'
'Look how much money you've spent again, and what you're going to do next.'
An Wuyang couldn't imagine what such suffocating education would be like if it happened to him; it would be such a pity.
No wonder some people spend a lifetime healing from the past.
"You little rascal!" An Huchun smiled and raised his glass, adding, "Drink less."
"I understand," An Wuyang replied. He knew that An Huchun was reminding him that he was not in good health, which was also the reason why An Huchun had invited An Shicang to join the Father-Son Game.
An Huchun was in a bad mood and wanted to drink, but he didn't want An Wuyang to drink with him, so naturally An Shicang came to be his companion.
It was past 11 p.m.
After An Wuyang finished a bottle of beer, An Huchun urged, "Alright, alright, you don't need to keep me company anymore. Go wash up and rest!"
An Wuyang did not refuse; he knew that An Huchun was indeed doing this for his own good.
"Okay, I'll go wash up and rest first. You guys should drink less too," An Wuyang replied.
"Mm," Ancho Haru replied.
An Shicang naturally responded affirmatively, "Okay."
After An Wuyang left, An Huchun looked at An Shicang and asked, "Want some more?"
"Brother Qian... um... I'm sorry, Chairman An." An Shicang had just opened his mouth when he immediately apologized again, his drunkenness dissipating somewhat.
An Huchun sighed and patted An Shicang on the shoulder, "Shicang, although you are the elder in terms of seniority, we grew up together, so you don't need to be too reserved."
Ankoharu and Ansekura were the same age and relatives, but Ankoharu had a higher status, so their seniority was less important and their friendship was more about growing up together.
“I know what you’re going to ask. The group is indeed doing very well right now, but my brother has no interest in it,” An Huchun explained.
How could he not guess An Shicang's meaning?
“As I just said, my brother’s next generation only has one daughter. He has ideas but no way to change them. The future of the group rests on Wuyang’s shoulders,” An Huchun explained.
“No!” Anchojun immediately added.
"It's not that the future of the group rests on Wu Yang's shoulders, but that Wu Yang has already taken on the responsibility of the group's development and has pushed the group to an unprecedented peak!" An Huchun said, taking a deep breath.
