Chapter 278: What You Wish For

On the last day of 2009, Beijing was shrouded in a thin layer of haze.

Fine snowflakes fell from the sky, silently covering the ancient city with a layer of white velvet carpet.

On the top floor of Tengda Technology Building, Song Ci stood quietly in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the snowflakes flying outside the window. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and let the crystal clear snowflakes fall leisurely into his palm.

"Director Song, the comrades from the notary office and the law firm are here."

The crisp voice of Song Xueying, the newly appointed secretary of the chairman, interrupted Song Ci's scattered thoughts.

"Please ask them to go to the small conference room next door. Also ask Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, and Mr. Peng to go over there. I'll be there soon."

"OK."

Song Ci turned around and looked at the back of her senior sister as she walked away in high heels. She was very impressed with her recent work ability and nodded with satisfaction.

He felt that Song Xueying had been his personal assistant for several years, working diligently and willingly, and that she should be given a future.

So last month, against all odds, he transferred her back to the group to temporarily serve as his secretary.

If she is competent in the future work, she will be appointed as secretary of the executive board of directors, giving her more room for development.

After a while, when Song Ci came to the conference room, Zhang Yong, Wang Jing and Chief Legal Officer Peng Nuo had already arrived and were sitting quietly aside.

Song Ci sat down at the main seat, glanced at everyone present, and went straight to the point to the people from the law firm and the notary office: "I don't need to explain the purpose of your visit. Lawyer Zhang, are all the materials ready?"

Song Ci's personal lawyer, the well-known lawyer Zhang Sanda, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and replied calmly, "Mr. Song, your company's legal officer Mr. Peng and the comrades from the notary office have reviewed the materials."

Hearing this, Song Ci took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Today, under the witness of three senior executives of Tengda Technology Group and comrades from the notary office, I decided to make a will to prevent any accidents in my life and to protect the future of my relatives."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang San opened the document and began to read the contents of the will.

"Mr. Song Ci divided his main assets, including Tengda Technology Group, Shanhai Capital, etc., into three parts..."

Everyone present was secretly shocked as they listened to the lawyer listing out Song Ci's properties one by one, and gained a more intuitive and shocking understanding of the magnitude of the wealth of this richest man.

It turns out that the well-known net worth of 110 billion yuan on the wealth list is only a small part of his property.

Unexpected things happen in life, and people are subject to misfortunes at any time. Song Ci cannot guarantee which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. After much thought, he decided to make a will in advance.

Although making a will may be considered unlucky in the minds of traditional Chinese people, it is very common among wealthy families in Europe and the United States. Only by preparing for a rainy day can one provide protection for the family.

He divided his property into three parts, leaving most of it to his parents who had always silently supported him and devoted countless efforts for him, in order to fulfill his filial piety.

The other part was given to Liu Shishi, who was about to get married with him and spend the rest of her life with him, as a promise and guarantee to her lover.

After Zhang San finished reading, the notary carefully checked each clause, confirmed that they were correct, and nodded to everyone.

Song Ci picked up the pen, hovered the tip of the pen above the document, and stared at it for a long while, feeling mixed emotions. He was only in his twenties, and he had already made a will.

He shook his head slightly, then signed his name without hesitation. At this moment, a huge stone fell from his heart, as if he had accomplished an important mission.

According to the process, the law firm, the notary office, and Song Ci himself kept backups of the documents. At this point, the important task of making a will was successfully completed.

Then Zhang San took out the second document: "Mr. Song, this is the property donation agreement prepared according to your request."

Song Ci flipped through it casually and signed his name again.

Although Liu Shishi was determined not to accept the shares of Tengda Group, he still wanted to give Miss Liu some property.

So he gave a courtyard house in Peking, a luxury house in Tangchen Yipin, and an office building in Donghai that Lin Hao bought at a bargain price during the financial crisis last year as a wedding gift.

I want to give the best in the world to the best girl in my heart.

After finishing the work, Song Ci said gently: "Secretary Zhou, please send Lawyer Zhang and the comrades from the notary office off for me."

Zhou Xueying behaved properly and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, please come this way."

After all the outsiders left, only Song Ci and three senior executives were left in the conference room.

Wang Jing looked at Song Ci with a dazed look. As a woman, she was extremely envious of Liu Shishi's good fortune. Her chairman was truly an ideal person. "Boss Song, when are we going to get married?"

"The wedding will have to wait for a while. Master's grandfather just passed away, so it's not appropriate to have a grand ceremony. But I will get the certificate tomorrow."

"Tomorrow!" The three executives looked at each other and were a little shocked. How much did the chairman want to get married? He was so anxious to bring Liu Shishi home.

But despite being surprised, he immediately congratulated her: "Congratulations, Mr. Song, and happy wedding."

Song Ci smiled and nodded in thanks. Suddenly, he remembered something and said, "By the way, Mr. Peng, you are responsible for reporting my marriage to the board of directors and keeping it on record."

Although he has the final say in Tengda Group and the board of directors is just a decoration, basic procedures must still be followed and major personal matters of the major shareholder should be reported to the board of directors for record.

"Okay, Mr. Song."

After joking with the three people for a few words, they each went their separate ways, and Song Ci called Zhang Yong and WeChat President Tang Jun to his office.

"What are the current WeChat chat data?"

Tang Jun was delighted: "WeChat's first-mover advantage and the effect of the mini-game strategy some time ago were too obvious. The number of WeChat users was suppressed by us.

Generally, users already have QQ and WeChat installed on their phones, so they rarely install WeChat Chat. "

"Very good!" Song Ci praised with satisfaction. He had noticed Tang Jun's dedication and hard work during this period. "We must maintain our lead and not take it lightly.

I predict that Penguin will soon be impatient and will probably start to connect WeChat and QQ data after the new year. Let’s stick to the original plan and launch WeChat Moments tomorrow to further eat into the market.”

Tang Jun quickly assured: "Don't worry, we have tested the Moments function repeatedly to ensure that it is foolproof when it goes online."

Song Ci looked at Zhang Yong again: "Mr. Zhang, how is the WeChat data?"

The overseas version of WeChat has always been under the overall charge of CEO Zhang Yong, who also has high hopes for this project.

Zhang Yong sat up straight and reported seriously: "The number of users has exceeded 100 million, and it is the largest mobile IM software overseas.

Although Facebook has also launched similar products, it is still in a state of peaceful competition with us. However, once WeChat is launched on Moments, it will inevitably be suppressed by Facebook. "

Song Ci's face was serious: "This is something that I have to face sooner or later. I am ready to sell all my Facebook shares and start this battle for the social empire without any worries."

The functions of WeChat Moments are highly overlapping with those of Facebook. Once WeChat Moments is launched and invades Facebook's core business, it will inevitably be targeted madly. This is an inevitable struggle between the two major companies.

Zhang Yong was worried: "We have to fight Penguin in China and beware of Facebook abroad. The company is under great pressure. Both sides are giants. If we are not careful, we will lose everything."

Song Ci lamented: “Time is not waiting for me. If I miss one or two years and let Facebook and Penguin seize the market, there will be no possibility of developing WeChat.

However, WeChat currently has a great advantage and a bright future. I plan to start financing in the second half of the year. I will spend money to create a new path for WeChat.

Lao Zhang, throw away all your baggage and go all out. Tengda has the strength and the opportunity to build a social empire. "

Zhang Yong was inspired and nodded vigorously: "Only the brave can win when they meet on a narrow road. We can only give it a try. If we succeed, Tenda will be a world-class multinational giant. If we lose, the worst that can happen is that we can only make a living by guarding the Weibo and game businesses."

At around seven o'clock in the evening, when Liu Shishi returned to her home in the community, her parents were having dinner.

"Dad, Mom!" Miss Liu stood in front of her parents, smiling sweetly and very politely.

Mother Liu was very surprised. She looked at her graceful daughter and felt that she was a little different today. She seemed to be much more mature. "Shishi, why did you come back at this time? Have you had dinner?"

Liu Shishi responded softly: "I have eaten. I have something to do when I came back today. I need to get something."

Father Liu put down his chopsticks, looked at his daughter lovingly, and joked with a smile: "What do you want? You don't have anything in Jingyuan, and you have to run back to get it."

Liu Shishi gazed at her parents quietly, and every detail of the past emerged in her mind.

The days when I was carefully cared for by my parents, and the laughter and tears on the road to growth, all become extremely clear at this moment.

As I thought about it, my eyes unconsciously became moist.

Father Liu was immediately anxious when he saw this, thinking that his daughter had been wronged. He stood up suddenly, pulled her arm, and asked her to sit down at the table: "Why are you crying, daughter? Have you been wronged? Tell Dad!"

Mother Liu also stared at Miss Liu with concern, wondering if her daughter and son-in-law had had a fight.

Liu Shishi sat down at the table and reached out to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I came back to get my household registration book. Just now I suddenly thought of something and couldn't help crying."

"You need the household registration booklet? It's in the closet in the bedroom. I'll get it for you." Mother Liu was about to get up, but then she realized what was happening and paused. She asked in disbelief, "You want to get a certificate?"

Under the gaze of her parents, who were full of expectation and reluctance, Liu Shishi nodded slightly and said, "Yi Yi and I will get the marriage certificate tomorrow."

When Liu's father heard this, he subconsciously scolded him: "Kid, why didn't you discuss this important matter with your family in advance?"

Mother Liu smiled happily and said, "What are you discussing? I'll tell you now that I'm back!

The two children have been engaged for a year. If the old man is gone, they can't hold the wedding. It's a good thing to get the certificate in advance. Wait, mom will go get the household registration book for you. "

After saying this, Mother Liu walked towards the bedroom with a happy face, her steps were so brisk that she seemed as if she was ten years younger.

Father Liu was feeling very upset at the moment. After tomorrow, the apple of his eye, whom he had cared for for twenty years, would become the daughter-in-law of the Song family.

She opened her mouth several times but didn't know what to say. Her advice and concerns for her daughter finally turned into a heavy sigh. In her heart, she silently wished her daughter to be treated kindly in the future and live a happy life.

After a while, Mother Liu returned to the living room with the household registration booklet and handed it to Liu Shishi solemnly, saying earnestly:

"Shishi, after tomorrow, you will be Song Ci's wife. I hope you can manage your own small family with him, support your husband and raise your children, and be a good and competent wife."

"I understand, Mom." Liu Shishi took the household registration booklet and slowly held it against her chest. As she listened to her mother's instructions, tears began to fall uncontrollably.

Mother Liu hugged her daughter and patted her back gently: "Okay, okay, don't cry. Getting a marriage certificate is a happy event. You finally got your wish and married the person you love. You should be happy."

Liu Shishi tried hard to control her emotions, rubbed herself against her mother's arms, and said coquettishly: "I am crying with joy."

At the same time, in Song Ci's home in the building opposite, Song Ci also took the household registration booklet handed over by his mother Liu Xiaoxian.

Song Zhang looked at the pride in his heart and couldn't help but sigh: "Yuan Dan, congratulations, you finally got what you wanted and married your beloved girl. It can be regarded as a perfect ending for my twenty years of youth.

From tomorrow, it will be a brand new beginning. From now on, your role is no longer just a son, but also a husband and a father. I hope you will take good care of your wife and children, be loyal to your family, and live happily with Shishi until old age. "

Liu Xiaoxian stood there in a daze. Although Liu Shishi was not the perfect daughter-in-law in her mind, she put aside all distracting thoughts when she saw her son's excitement and happiness.

Here is a mother's most sincere blessing to her son: "On New Year's Day, I wish you and Shishi a smooth, peaceful and happy life."

The love of parents is beyond words. Song Ci has thousands of words in his heart, but he doesn't know how to express them. He can only express them with the simplest words: "Thank you, Dad and Mom!"

Song Zhang looked relieved. Song Ci had been obedient and sensible since he was young. Now that his son's career was thriving and he was about to get married, he could finally rest assured.

Liu Xiaoxian thought for a moment and asked her son, "By the way, getting the marriage certificate is a happy event, and tomorrow is your birthday. Let's have dinner together tonight."

Song Ci smiled and said, "I was thinking the same thing. I have already ordered a banquet for our family to get together in the evening."

At night, everything was quiet. Liu Shishi lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She felt something inexplicably in her heart, so she stood up and stood by the bedroom window, looking at the balcony of her fiancé's house.

Sure enough, in the hazy and bright moonlight after the snow, I saw a vague figure on the balcony opposite, looking up at the boundless starry sky. Who else could it be but Song Ci!

Liu Shishi excitedly picked up her phone and called her fiancé, but unfortunately no one answered. So she turned on the light in the bedroom, stood by the window and waved her phone vigorously at Song Ci.

Song Ci also had no sleep during the long nights, and his life experiences of more than 20 years flashed through his mind like a passing show.

Suddenly he noticed that the light in Miss Liu's bedroom opposite was on, and then he saw his fiancée waving her cell phone at him. He immediately understood what she meant and went back to the bedroom to get the phone.

"Yiyi, you can't sleep either?"

"Thinking about something."

The young couple looked at each other affectionately while talking on the phone.

"Then sing a song for me."

"It's so late, it's not a good idea. It will disturb the neighbors."

"This is my last little wish before getting the marriage certificate. Please allow me to be a little willful."

"Okay, what do you want to hear?"

"Today I also think of our youth, our past, and that night at Peking University, so I want to listen to The Wind Rises."

"Okay!" Song Ci agreed happily, went back to the bedroom, took out the guitar, turned on the speakerphone and started playing on the balcony.

"We've been walking and stopping along the way... In the name of love, are you still willing?"

In an instant, melodious singing floated in the silent night sky.

Liu Shishi listened to the familiar and moving melody, looked at the figure under the moon, intoxicated, and whispered softly: "I do!"
