Chapter 300 Can Only Blame Him for Being Too Bullying
Many entrepreneurs, wanting their children to take over the business, have not had their wishes fulfilled.
Your own son, willing and capable of taking over the business, is stronger than most wealthy businessmen.
In this respect, he has done better than Wang, the tycoon.
Wang's Son, Wang Xiaocong, lacks the ability to take over from Wang.
He just likes to mess around outside, hasn't earned much money, but keeps changing female internet celebrities one after another.
It's fair to say, Wang Xiaocong is far behind his elder brother in comparison.
But his younger son is different.
He is the very definition of a spoiled second-generation rich kid.
Lacks ambition; doesn't even come to work when asked to.
He spends his days flitting around with his entourage, indulging in food, drinks, and fun.
That would be fine, as the family wealth is enough for the younger son to live comfortably for a lifetime.
And with the elder son taking over, how the younger son eats, drinks, and plays won't affect the family.
But the younger son does more than just eat, drink, and play; he does other things too.
Forcing women, using marijuana, causing injuries through street racing, getting into fights and hurting people.
All sorts of things that have given him and his elder brother many headaches.
Many times he was taken into custody, and both he and his elder brother had to use connections, spend money and favors, just to bail him out.
They've scolded and hit him, but the younger son never changes his ways.
He had no better way to discipline his younger son, so he just let him continue on this path.
At this moment, the younger son called, and Li Changsheng instinctively had a bad premonition.
That is, Li Zixuan had caused trouble again.
"Dad, there's something I need to tell you about. I can't handle it, so I need your help to solve it," Li Zixuan said.
"You little rascal, what trouble have you gotten into now?" As soon as Li Changsheng heard, he knew it was as he had suspected and immediately flew into a rage.
"Dad, don't be mad yet, listen to me first. Yes, I caused trouble, but it's not a big deal. I just kicked someone, that's all," Li Zixuan said.
"You kicked someone? What kinda trivial issue is that? How does that compare to the troubles you've caused before? You're calling me at this time, saying you can't handle it, you can't deal with such a minor issue as kicking someone, you might as well be dead," Li Changsheng said, growing even more angry at what seemed like such a trivial matter.
"Dad, don't rush, listen to me,"
"If it were just that simple, I would have solved it already,"
"It's because it's not simple that I can't sort it out, that's why I'm asking for your help,"
Li Zixuan said with a wry smile.
"What's so complicated about kicking someone? Did the other party have some clout?" Li Changsheng quickly got to the crux of the matter.
Had the other party not been influential, with his son's status, such a matter could be settled in minutes.
"Really worthy of being my dad, you guessed it, the other party does have clout," Li Zixuan said.
"If you know the other party is influential, why do you still kick them? Isn't that looking for trouble, giving me a headache?" Li Changsheng got angry again.
Knowing the party's influence and still going to provoke them is outright asking for trouble.
"Dad, I'm not an idiot, why would I kick someone for no reason? I didn't know who they were. They were meddling in my business and trying to ruin my plans, so I kicked them," Li Zixuan said.
"Then tell me, who is the other party?" Li Zixuan, tired of this issue, directly inquired about the other party's identity.
"Xu Yang's father," Li Zixuan said.
"Xu Yang's father? Who is this Xu Yang?" Li Changsheng murmured, not immediately realizing who Li Zixuan was talking about, just feeling the name Xu Yang sounded somewhat familiar.
"Dad, Xu Yang is the boss of Hua'an Film and Television. I kicked his father," Li Zixuan said.
"You… you little bastard, are you trying to kill me?!" Li Changsheng burst out in fury.
Xu Yang's reputation was something he naturally knew.
He was a figure many in the business world did not wish to provoke.
Because Xu Yang's methods were too cunning.
Neither the executives nor the artists at Hua'an Film and Television understood how Xu Yang got hold of their dark secrets.
Many tycoons had called Hua'an's president, Xue Zhanhua, to inquire about the situation, even Xue Zhanhua himself didn't know.
For many, Xu Yang's methods incited fear and caution.
Running a business, there were more or less certain issues.
Problems were common in the film and television industry, but other industries had their issues too.
If they had a conflict with Xu Yang and he pulled this on them, they wouldn't be able to handle it either.
Now, Li Zixuan had gotten on Xu Yang's bad side, and even kicked Xu Yang's father.
Could the other party let bygones be bygones?
If Xu Yang dug up his son's dirt and went public, it would probably be the end of his son's life.
Getting arrested meant saying goodbye to freedom for life.
"Dad, I didn't want it to happen, I didn't know the man was Xu Yang's father at the time," Li Zixuan said bitterly.
"Tell me exactly what happened, don't leave anything out," Li Changsheng took a deep breath.
Now wasn't the time to blame his son, but to settle the matter.
To settle things, he had to fully understand the ins and outs of the situation.
"Dad, it's like this..." Li Zixuan explained without daring to hide anything.
"You little rascal, you're going to meet your end because of a woman someday!" When Li Changsheng heard his son had kicked Xu Yang's father over a woman, he couldn't help his rising anger.
"Dad, if you want to punish me, let's deal with the issue first, then punish me. Once I learned the man was Xu Yang's father, I immediately called Xu Yang, offering to compensate five million, but he refused. So I asked him to name his price or state any other conditions. As long as I could do it, I would help him," Li Zixuan said.
"He still didn't accept?" Li Changsheng asked.
"Yeah, he still didn't. He said he'd seek justice for his father in his own way. I'm afraid he'll act recklessly, so I have no choice but to turn to you. Maybe you could call him, see if he'll back off. You carry as much weight as he does, he should give you face," Li Zixuan said.
"You actively apologized and offered compensation, that was very good of you," Li Changsheng commented.
Whatever the situation called for, Li Zixuan did well in that regard.
If it's well done, he would praise; if not, he would scold.
He was clear about his stance in this.
"I think so too," Li Zixuan didn't expect praise from his father and was quite pleased with himself.
"Hmph, you might have done well, but he hasn't forgiven you. The outcome isn't good, what do you have to be proud of?" Li Changsheng snorted coldly.
"Dad, you can't blame me for this."
"I made a proactive offer of five million in compensation. Anybody would accept that."
"I think it's just Xu Yang making a mountain out of a molehill."
"After all, I just kicked his father once. His father wasn't seriously hurt, at worst he just felt some pain at the time."
"Plus, I said if he's not satisfied, he could suggest a figure, or tell me to do anything else. Whatever I could do, I would satisfy him."
"I've lowered myself to such an extent, and if he's still unwilling, it can't be my fault. It can only be because he's being too oppressive."
"Dad, it's true he's on brotherly terms with Wang Xiaocong and has connections with tycoon Wang, but he can't just act so recklessly."
"You are his peer, a billionaire too, even if he won't give me face, he should give you face."
"Please, give him a call. Otherwise, I'm out of options."
Li Zixuan had said a lot, shifting the blame onto Xu Yang, feeling that Xu Yang was being overly aggressive.
