Chapter 471 Funeral Storm
After a heavy rain, the city of Heigang was filled with a hint of coolness, and a grand funeral was being held in the auditorium of the Glass Palace in the city center.
People were wearing black and white medieval dresses and holding chrysanthemums in their hands. They walked through the luxurious towering gate of the Glass Palace, walked through the luxurious red carpet, and entered the interior of the Glass Palace, spontaneously seeing off the person they loved the most. The atmosphere was solemn and solemn.
The Glass Palace was built in the first Light Mind Technology Revolution. At that time, the Robert family had just hunted their first pot of gold in the gold rush. They invited the best architects in the Holy United area to create this magnificent family auditorium for the Robert family. The auditorium was made of locally mined rare mineral glass, and was planted with rare green plants collected from all over the world. The shutters were gems collected from all over the world, and the huge cemetery was a Light Mind projection light curtain. The theme of combining technology and dreams was fully expressed.
As the family's auditorium and the highest-level conference hall, we have witnessed many glorious moments of the Robert family in this building. We have also witnessed the heaviness and sorrow of the funerals when too many patriarchs and romantic figures of all generations fell, filling it with a heavy historical background. It itself is part of the Robert family's entrepreneurial history, and today it will witness this vicissitudes again.
A few days ago, someone found the body of the elder Robert and his walking stick at the bottom of the Black Iron City. News of the fall of the heroic ruler Robert began to spread in the Black Iron City.
People expressed regret for this. During the decades when Robert was in office as the patriarch, his arbitrary and iron-fisted style made the citizens of Heigang City feel pressure, incomprehension, and even disgusted.
But Heigang City grew up in his hands and became a force that cannot be underestimated on the mainland. Heigang City people have lived a beautiful life that people in other regions have difficulty dreaming of. In terms of work, he seemed to be a terrible dictator and paranoid, but in other aspects his mind was so magnanimous and bright. During his reign, he had lifted the ban on several patented Robert family technologies for civil use and improved people's livelihood. He also repeatedly forgiven the assassins in the family who were different from him who tried to assassinate him, and used them regardless of past grudges, so that they could participate in the management of the family. For decades, the people in Heigang City have been accustomed to the leadership and management of the old Robert. His sudden departure made everyone feel a never-before confused and complex mentality of not knowing where to go about the future.
Soon people gathered in front of the iron coffin of Old Robert to give him the final farewell. The flowers offered by people almost completely covered the body of Old Robert.
Robert's younger brother, Raul Robert, walked up to the front desk and began to deliver a heart-wrenching eulogy.
"My brother was once the person I hated most when I was a teenager. He ruined my dance party and a comfortable life like a young man. He strictly required my studies and made me work with the grassroots mechanics in Heigang City. He seemed to be in a bad mood, always had a pathological sense of crisis for the future, and was very good at imposing this sense of crisis on others."
"But when I was twenty-one, I thoroughly understood him. It was a fierce stage of our commercial competition with the Kra Group. At that time, I and several other people went to the Kra Group for commercial negotiations as family representatives. I thought it was a reconciliation journey, but I didn't expect it to be a trap set by the cunning Kra family. At first, it was a delicious and delicious hospitality, but later we were directly imprisoned as hostages and put into a water prison. If my brother hadn't used his flexibly to deal with his talents and waited for rescue
As aid comes, we may have been buried in the water prison. I have only experienced this terrible experience once, but my brother himself has been in the eye of the storm of the business world for many years. Dear brothers and sisters, our Heigang City’s current huge business territory is not given to us by our competitors. Every step further in my career shows that someone has endured us again and again with great crises behind us. In this process, our city lord is a well-deserved hero…”
Raul Roberts' emotional words aroused everyone's empathy, and sobbing sounds came from the podium. After the farewell session, Robert Old Man is about to be buried.
The iron coffin full of flowers was slowly carried by the machinery installed below, and the body of old Robert was sent along the rails into the gold furnace in the center of the auditorium. This is the traditional burial method of the Robert family.
As the gold control furnace is heated and ignited, the carbon in the bones of Robert old will be refined into steel along with the alloy raw materials. It will become part of Black Steel City and coexist with Black Steel City forever.
Discussions about the direction of the family and the distribution of power after Robert Older left were set on the third day after the funeral. It was a hot day, which made people feel upset. All the management members of the Robert family temporarily put down their management work and sat down in the conference hall in the Glass Palace.
"Yes, the glory of the old patriarch Robert's past is indeed worthy of our respect, but arbitrary management also has many disadvantages. We should introduce large-scale parliamentary management to disperse power, so that all senior engineers and scientific researchers become members of parliament and manage affairs."
The representatives of the middle-aged and young people in the family took the lead in the attack. They wanted to take this rare opportunity to gain their own voice. They had been waiting for a long time this day. They had been working with many senior engineers and secretly operated for a long time, and had a certain public base. This time, they obviously came prepared.
"I don't agree with your point of view. The achievements made by our Robert family and several generations of entrepreneurs are not just based on these seemingly fashionable theories, but on the hard work and pragmatism of generations, decentralization will inevitably lead to management burnout." At this time, the silent Raul Robert also spoke.
Raul Robert targeted the young people present, and had many supporters behind him. Many of the older generations trained by Robert Old Robert fell to Raul Robert's side after the death of Robert Old Robert. He couldn't bear to see the results of his struggle, and fell into the hands of the younger generation with no experience and experience inexperienced.
And Robert's only son, Yoll, seemed to have been ignored intentionally or unintentionally at this time. Since Robert's death, Yoll has never appeared again as if he had evaporated from the world, and he has not even attended his father's funeral. Yoll, who is withdrawn and cowardly, has always been a lack of family management. So no one would think that he is the next candidate for the family heir.
People, from different perspectives, occupied both sides of the conference table, and quarreled endlessly around the seat of the head of the home that once belonged to Old Robert in the middle. It seemed that there was no agreement for a while, and the entire conference room lost the order of speech and was in chaos.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside, and a thin figure walked into the lobby of the conference room. He closed his body without carrying a traditional medieval dress that symbolized his family identity as required. Instead, he casually wore a sportswear, with a large mountaineering bag behind him and old-fashioned goggles, looking like an unruly climber.
