Speculation about Lu Yi's college application choices is rampant online.
In the tea room, Fan Shenglun accepted the tea offered by Lu Yi with a beaming smile.
“Yi’er, you’ve grown up. It’s time for you to make your own decisions.”
"To be honest, the original intention of this targeted training program was to provide a way out for high-achieving students from poor families."
“They are generally grateful, responsible, hardworking, and unafraid of challenges. These qualities make it easier for them to achieve success in our industry.”
"However, in the past two years, a set of data shows that fewer and fewer of them have achieved results, while the proportion of those who violate contracts has been rising year by year."
"They no longer prioritize gratitude; they focus more on their personal future and income... I'm glad you have better options!"
For children from ordinary families, majors like business management are like a gorgeous robe.
It sounds good to say, but to go from zero to the top without considering the background is harder than climbing to heaven.
Fan Huijun's advice to Lu Yi was based on Lu Yi's family circumstances at the time.
But now, Lu Yi's status and position are incomparable to what they used to be. Fan Shenglun has to give him a thumbs up for being able to change his perspective and consider this kind of professional approach.
A businessman's greatest advantage is not the amount of assets he has at his disposal.
Rather, he possesses an extraordinary sense of smell!
In this respect, Lu Yi seems to have a natural talent.
"Mr. Fan, actually I haven't decided yet. I just feel that if I choose a management-related major, I can also take mechanical design as an option..."
“Andrew White, a well-known international medical device engineer, once gave a lecture at our school. I really like his design philosophy, so I want to work with him on project design during my university years!”
Lu Yi sat down opposite him, his clear eyes filled with determination.
His composed demeanor in every gesture caused Fan Shenglun to momentarily lose his composure.
In their youth, among the entrepreneurs in Jiangzhou, it seemed that only Huo Xiao possessed a similar aura.
That old man, even at a young age, was as steady as an old dog, maintaining a mountain-like composure under any circumstances.
He was the first to rise to prominence... and of course, he was also the first to suffer a devastating blow.
Fan Shenglun took a small sip, placed the teacup on the side table beside him, gazed at Lu Yi, and sighed.
“What’s the rush to do projects? That Mr. White is just a theorist. If you follow him, you won’t make any progress except for developing divergent thinking.”
"I agree that you should choose a management major. After graduation, you can go abroad to pursue an MBA and become alumni with those international bigwigs, but..."
He crossed his legs, placed his hands in front of him, and stared intently.
"Forget about doing projects. If you really want to gain experience, you can join Fan's company and help your sister with the company's trivial matters."
"I think she's several years older than you, yet she can't even keep those new shareholders in check. Without Huaibei's assistance, this business will be ruined sooner or later in her hands!"
Fan Shenglun began preparations to have Lu Yi take over the Fan family business.
But I also felt a little uneasy.
One is Gu Huaibei, who serves him faithfully and neglects his family business. Anyone can see how much he cares for Fan Huijun and the Fan family.
He couldn't just kick the two of them aside and focus on grooming Lu Yi as his successor.
But if I don't make plans early, I'm afraid that one day I'll close my eyes and kick the bucket, leaving such a big business like the Fan family to my unprepared daughter and son-in-law.
Once the two get married, Fan Huijun will become the daughter-in-law of the Gu family.
Fan Shenglun wasn't so foolish as to openly marry Gu Huaibei while secretly taking him into her home and treating him like a beast of burden.
Lu Yi lowered his head and thought for a moment.
He quickly understood what his godfather meant.
He chuckled and said, "That's easy. I'll choose a school in Jiangzhou, and after school, I'll go help out at the company."
His straightforwardness surprised Fan Shenglun.
He quickly lowered his leg, leaned forward, and stared intently into his eyes. "Child, do you truly understand what your father means?"
The "help" he mentioned was not as simple as printing a document, sweeping the floor, or receiving a package.
The kind of work that anyone with hands can do, any office clerk in the company could do it.
What he wanted to see was that Lu Yi could use the Fan family business as a stage to consciously train his leadership skills.
But at this point, Fan Shenglun couldn't bring himself to say it outright.
After all, deciding who to appoint as successor requires a vote by the company's board of directors.
Fan Shenglun has sufficient evidence to believe that pushing Lu Yi to the forefront now is tantamount to pushing him toward his doom.
We must protect him and create conditions for him to successfully complete his studies.
They also need to cultivate them secretly in order to prepare for unforeseen circumstances.
Both are equally important, and figuring out how to balance them has been a headache for Fan Shenglun for a long time.
"Dad, I understand your good intentions."
“After my sister got married, she had to take care of her family and couldn’t devote all her energy to her work. You’re worried that someone might take advantage of this and build up their influence.”
“But my brother-in-law is the eldest son of the Gu family, and he can't possibly devote all his energy to the Fan Group. You've temporarily lost the leader of the team you have on hand, so…”
Lu Yi didn't beat around the bush.
He understood Fan Shenglun's character; he would carefully consider whether to make things difficult for others to achieve his own goals.
Even though he recognized Lu Yi as his godson out of goodwill, he never acted arbitrarily or controlled Lu Yi's life.
He was simply making the best possible plans for Lu Yi from the perspective of an elder.
After hearing his words, tears welled up in Fan Shenglun's eyes.
