Chapter 68: Family Structure
On the second level of the pyramid, there are three photos.
The first family is the Shen family.
The photo shows a modern Media Empire Building.
Madam Gu leaned forward slightly and pointed with her fingertips: "The Shen family has been involved in more than just the entertainment industry these days."
"Global trade and tourist resorts are spread out widely."
She spoke with admiration, "Shen Que, the second son of the Shen family, is a ruthless character. He defeated his eldest brother and now sits firmly in his position."
The second family is the Zhou family.
The photo shows a top private hospital that serves the upper class.
Mrs. Gu pointed to the second photo and said, "The Zhou family controls the lifeline of global medical care and is truly making money."
"The heir, Zhou Yu'an, is the only child of the Zhou family. He himself is a prodigy."
"With his reputation as a top brain surgeon and his business talent, the Zhou family is making steady progress under his leadership."
The third family is the Qin family.
The background of the photo is solemn, a distant view of a military base.
Madam Gu sighed, her tone complicated: "The Qin family is a military and political family. They hold the most military power in S City and even in the whole country."
"But too many of the Qin family's children have died in various places."
"Qin Yu is the only one left in the main lineage. He is spoiled to the point of lawlessness and doesn't look like a Qin family member at all."
Gu Chengyu's eyes casually swept across the photos, with no expression on his face.
As a super city where military power and top-level business intersect, S City has a structure that he is very familiar with.
In addition to the real estate and arms industries, the Gu family has also seen rapid development in the internet technology, gaming, e-commerce and other industries in recent years under the leadership of his father and him.
Even come from behind and lead the world.
He, Gu Chengyu, is the only recognized heir of the Gu family.
He has had a photographic memory since he was a child and received special training from the Gu family.
Any financial loopholes in the company cannot be hidden from his eyes.
Management talent and investment vision are innate.
Mrs. Gu looked at her son's nonchalant expression and continued, "Besides the chaebol families, let's talk about the national regime."
"Country S is the world's largest and only major power. There is no doubt about that."
"A few years ago, the constitutional monarchy changed to an electoral system, and the guy on the stage is just a mascot."
"The real power lies in the hands of the chaebol families. All major national and family affairs require the approval of the four major family heads."
"If political power is a tool for making money, then military power is the foundation of survival."
"Although most of the military is controlled by the Qin family, the most advanced weapons and nuclear arsenals have never been released by the Gu family. They are firmly in our own hands."
She paused, her tone becoming more serious: "But the Gu family is so powerful, a big tree attracts the wind."
"It's not impossible that the other companies, together with their leaders, could manipulate public opinion and unite against us, just like they did twenty years ago."
"snort."
Gu Chengyu snorted with disdain.
He leaned forward slightly, his almond-shaped eyes looking at his mother, full of arrogance, "Mom, you worry too much."
He pointed at the pyramid model with his fingertips and said casually, "Struggling for power, fighting and killing? It's cheap."
"Over the years, I asked them to give me some shares, and I helped them invest, reform and upgrade their industries."
"You saw it, too."
"They earn much more than before, and they are eager to come and become dependent on us."
"Who would still want to go against the Gu family every day? Not only will you not gain anything, you might even lose all your wealth and power."
Gu Chengyu leaned back, his posture lazy but imposing. "Instead of wasting time here in Country S, why not let them use their strength and follow the Gu family to make money all over the world?"
"Pushing Country S's economy to a truly transcendent position is the real business."
Mrs. Gu looked at her son talking, her eyes full of pride and helplessness.
This kid is arrogant, but his vision and methods are indeed worthy of the title of Prince of S City in the circle.
"Okay, as long as you know the answer."
Madam Gu nodded gracefully, but then suddenly changed the subject, revealing her true intentions. "However, Cheng Yu, I didn't call you back today to discuss the situation in S City."
She looked at her son and said, "You are not young anymore. It's time to settle down."
"The Gu family needs a young lady who is of equal status and can hold her own."
