After hearing Lu Jin's words, Lu Hao nodded slightly, his eyes deep in thought. After a while, he looked up at Lu Yuan with a face full of doubt and asked, "Big brother, what kind of work do you want to do in the future?"
Lu Yuan turned to look at Lu Hao, his gaze firm and confident as he replied, "I...I want to do research."
Lu Hao was stunned upon hearing this, and then asked, "Do you intend to dedicate yourself to the field of weapons research?"
Lu Yu also showed a hint of confusion on her face and said, "Doing scientific research is a very hard thing! Look at our dad, he worked hard all day long for those research projects, and even fainted from exhaustion. Later, he had to sit in a wheelchair for several years, and it took several years of recuperation before he was finally able to stand up and walk normally again."
However, faced with his younger brother's concerns and doubts, Lu Yuan did not back down. He calmly explained, "Actually, our country is still relatively backward in many aspects compared with other developed countries. I do not intend to follow in my father's footsteps and engage in weapons research and development. In comparison, I am personally more interested in computer technology."
Lu Yu remained confused as he listened to his brother's words. In his view, although the four of them had taken computer courses together, Lu Yuan didn't seem to have demonstrated any particularly outstanding abilities other than being able to chat with people on QQ.
At this moment, Lu Yuan could only shake his head helplessly when he saw Lu Yu's dazed and confused look. Just as everyone was silent, Lu Jin, who had been listening for a long time, also spoke up: "I have a different idea. I want to go into business."
Third Brother's words struck Lu Yu like a thunderbolt, leaving him speechless with astonishment. His eyes widened as he stared at Lu Jin in disbelief, stammering, "Do business? Do you want to be like Mom?"
Lu Jin nodded and said, "Yes."
Lu Yu said, "Didn't Mom have the help of her uncles to make it this big?"
He stared at Lu Jin with a puzzled look on his face, thinking to himself: The oldest person in their generation is Qian Xiang's eldest brother, Qian Yi'an, and he is only in high school.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Third Brother, isn't your thinking a bit too far ahead? Even if you're willing to take over Mom's job, you should at least wait until she retires, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. He looked at Lu Yu with gentle eyes and said slowly, "Brother, actually, my plan is not to follow the same path that Mom took. On the contrary, I aspire to create my own business through my own efforts—to start my own company."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's eyes widened instantly, revealing an expression of disbelief. He then quickly extended his right thumb and exclaimed sincerely, "Third Brother, I never imagined you were so ambitious! I admire you immensely! You are truly amazing!"
At this moment, Lu Hao silently watched his two brothers, his heart filled with mixed emotions. In his eyes, the eldest and third brothers clearly knew their future development direction and were working tirelessly towards it; on the other hand, although he had only recently begun to grasp the basics and had a slight awakening, he was still slightly inferior to the eldest and third brothers.
Looking at Lu Yu, who still seemed clueless and oblivious, Lu Hao shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly: This kid, judging by his appearance, probably hasn't truly grasped the path of life yet. But his mother had once said that everyone has a unique life trajectory, and others can neither walk it for them nor make choices for them. So, for now, he could only let nature take its course and hope that Lu Yu would find his own path to success soon.
After returning from the dazzling and extravagant casinos, the few days passed in the blink of an eye, and 1999 was drawing to a close. With the mysterious and highly anticipated 21st-century millennium just around the corner, the entire nation of China was immersed in a strong and unique atmosphere of transition.
As the old year gave way to the new, the four Lu brothers, taking advantage of the school's winter break, often lingered around Qian Duoduo and Lu Yuan, curiously watching the two busily preparing for the New Year's Eve event. Especially Qian Duoduo, this energetic and shrewd businesswoman, who had meticulously planned and organized an unprecedentedly grand New Year's Eve concert in the vast square of Wanmao CBD!
The lineup of guests invited to this concert was absolutely luxurious, consisting of none of the most prominent celebrities and popular singers in the contemporary entertainment industry. As the first New Year's Eve event, Qian Duoduo chose to hold it in the large square of Wanmao CBD. Due to space limitations, the venue could only accommodate a few thousand people at most. Because of the large number of people gathering, Qian Duoduo also coordinated with the authorities to have eight armed police units from Beijing dispatched to maintain order at the scene.
This year's New Year's Eve concert was not only heavily promoted by Beijing TV, but also received high attention and coverage from national-level television stations. Beijing TV, in particular, was the most proactive, becoming one of the key partners of the event.
Following their discussions, Qian Duoduo and Li Yunmo also organized a New Year's Eve concert at the Window of the World plaza in Shenzhen, again inviting Guangdong Province and Shenzhen TV to participate. This time, Wanmao Group was the organizer, linking the concerts from the two provinces and cities, and for the first time, the New Year's Eve celebration was broadcast live. Naturally, as the headquarters of Wanmao Group, there were more security personnel present.
Such extensive publicity has attracted many young people from all over the country to buy tickets and come to the event to celebrate the New Year with these celebrities.
On December 31st, the shopping malls around Wanmao CBD were packed to capacity, both in underground and above-ground parking lots! Cars were neatly arranged, as if a grand auto show was being held.
It was only five or six o'clock in the evening, but a large number of people had already begun to slowly gather in this direction from all directions. They were either in twos or threes or alone, and everyone's face was filled with excitement and anticipation.
As night gradually falls, dazzling lights begin to illuminate the night, shimmering with captivating brilliance. These vibrant and colorful lights intertwine, creating a dreamlike and enchanting scene.
Even the windows of the nearby buildings began to flash with dazzling lights.
