Since that night, Li Dong's grandmother had not spoken again.
The old lady liked peace and quiet. She was usually alone. When she was free, she liked to sit on the balcony and bask in the sun. She did not like to communicate with others.
Although Li Dong wanted to continue to ask a few more questions, on the one hand, he was a little guilty, and on the other hand, the old lady did not pay attention to him anymore. This made Li Dong give up the idea of continuing to communicate with the old lady.
When Qin Yuhan returned from winter vacation, Li Dong completely left this matter behind.
The old lady had her own beliefs, and it was understandable that she was on Shinto.
As for what the old lady said that night, it did not mean that she really knew anything. Li Dong felt that it was caused by his own guilty conscience.
…
Putting aside his worries, Li Dong took advantage of his free time to accompany Qin Yuhan to walk around.
After a few days of playing around in Pingchuan, Li Dong's business came.
Although he gave himself a holiday and did not go to the company, it did not mean that he really did not care about the company.
On the 23rd of December, Li Dong rushed back to the Far away Building again.
After a few days, the company had changed a lot.
The environment was the same, there was no difference, but the energy of the employees seemed to have risen a lot.
Although Yuan Chengdao complained that Li Dong left a lot of chicken feathers on the ground, he still had to do things.
A new official makes a clean sweep, and Yuan Chengdao did not really have an undeserved reputation.
After implementing a few simple plans, the company's personnel were straightened out.
Seeing Li Dong enter the door, Yuan Chengdao got up and said with a smile, "General Manager Li, you are here. I was just about to look for you."
Li Dong did not reply, but said with a smile, "Well done. I see that everyone is in high spirits. You are not a CEO for nothing."
Yuan Chengdao said a few modest words, then asked Li Dong to sit down and said, "General Manager Li, I have a few things to discuss with you."
"Go ahead."
"First, I want to hire two vice presidents, one in charge of external affairs and the other in charge of internal affairs. What do you think?"
Li Dong frowned slightly at first, then thought for a moment and said, "CEO Shen and CEO Sun …"
Yuan Chengdao understood what he meant and hurriedly said, "Although Mr. Shen and Mr. Sun are also vice presidents in name, you also know that Mr. Sun and Mr. Shen are busy with their own affairs and have no time to participate in the management of the company."
"What about Mr. Wang?"
"Boss Wang is still in charge of developing the Zhejiang market. I'm also going to hand over the Gan Province to her. Also, you said that you want to enter the Hubei market. You need someone capable to take charge of this matter. I think only President Wang can do it, so President Wang will be very busy. "
Hearing this, Li Dong nodded and said, "Then I agree to this matter. Do as you see fit."
Yuan Chengdao heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't do it alone. He had just taken office and had to find a few helpers.
As for Sun Tao and the rest, they were all old employees and officials Far away. Almost all of them had more seniority than him.
Not to mention whether they were busy or not, the key was that he could not command them at all.
After thinking about it, it was best to set up a new management team of his own.
Originally, he thought that Li Dong might not agree. Now, it seemed that he had underestimated Li Dong. It was obvious that Li Dong understood what he meant.
After saying this, Yuan Chengdao said, "Also, I think Director Xu understands what we mean. The alliance is completely over. You should pay more attention to the association. After the new year, find a time to gather with everyone and settle this matter. "
"I know. I'm working on it recently. I'll officially set up a signboard at the beginning of next year."
"That's for the best."
Yuan Chengdao then continued, "There's one more thing that I need to trouble General Manager Li to do personally."
"What is it?"
"Happy new year."
"Happy new year?" Li Dong asked curiously, "Who are you going to visit?"
"The provincial government. You have to go personally." Yuan Chengdao explained, "It's different now compared to two years ago. Far away's scale and influence were small two years ago. At that time, you asked Director Sun to bring a team to visit, and the others didn't mind. But Far away has come this far. Jiangbei's support for us is not small. So, I hope you can visit them personally. "
Li Dong thought for a while and nodded. "Leave this to me. I almost forgot that I have to go personally."
Yuan Chengdao was polite. In fact, Li Dong did not visit them personally two years ago because he was not in their eyes.
In the eyes of the provincial party committee bigwigs, Li Dong was a complete nobody two years ago.
Even if Li Dong visited them personally, he might not even be accepted.
Of course, that was in the past. Now that Li Dong's status had risen, he had the qualifications to visit them personally.
Whether it was the government or the business world, others would only give you face if you give them face.
If Li Dong did not visit them this year, others would think that he was looking down on them or pretending to be aloof.
It was fine for those who were broad-minded, but those who were narrow-minded would offend them.
Seeing Li Dong agreed, Yuan Chengdao thought for a while and said softly, "Also, I hope General Manager Li can visit Governor Qin."
"Governor Qin …"
Li Dong's eyes narrowed. He had long heard of this mysterious and low-key number one of the provincial government.
Unfortunately, Li Dong had never seen him in person.
That person was too low-key, so low-key that people often overlook him.
Others might overlook him, but that did not mean that Li Dong would also overlook him. He knew about the successor of Du Anmin in his previous life.
Even if Yuan Chengdao did not mention it, Li Dong would still visit him.
Li Dong nodded and did not say anything. After Yuan Chengdao reported a few more important matters, Li Dong smiled and said, "Looks like you have done a good job. I'm relieved. Alright, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll be leaving first. "
"General Manager Li, are you leaving now?"
"Yes. I'm here to pay my New Year's greetings. I have to get ready. It's almost Chinese New Year, and everyone is busy."
"Alright, I'll see you out."
Yuan Chengdao stood up and walked Li Dong out of the door. Then, he turned around and continued with his own business.
… …
When it came to New Year greetings, Du Anmin was the first person that could not be forgotten in Jiangbei.
On the 24th of December, Li Dong went to visit Du Anmin.
Du Anmin was also very busy during this period, so he did not speak much with Li Dong. After a brief chat, Du Anmin went to the study room to answer the call.
He left, but Li Dong was somewhat absent-minded.
Shen Qian, who was busy with work, walked over and asked, "What's wrong? What did you guys talk about? "
Li Dong shook his head and stood up. "Secretary Du is busy, so I won't disturb him. Please apologize for me. I'll visit again after Chinese New Year."
"Alright, I'll walk you out."
Li Dong did not refuse. When they reached the entrance of the courtyard, Shen Qian suddenly said, "Did my dad scold me?"
"No."
"Really?" Shen Qian did not believe it.
Li Dong smiled and rubbed her head. He shook his head and said, "I really didn't. It's mainly business. Although your dad didn't say it explicitly, he hinted in a roundabout way that he will probably leave next year."
Shen Qian pushed his hand away and frowned. "I know about this. It seems that it's a foregone conclusion."
Both of them had expected Du Anmin to leave.
Although they had caused a ruckus in Capital City, it was unlikely that such a small matter would disrupt the plans of the higher-ups.
Since Du Anmin was leaving, Far away would definitely be affected.
Of course, things were different now. Far away had established a foothold in Jiangbei, so the impact would not be too big.
So, even if Du Anmin really left, the impact would not be too big.
After Li Dong finished talking about this, he looked at the time and said, "Let's go back. It's getting late. Accompany me to visit Governor Qin tomorrow. We will have to rely on him in the future."
"My dad said that?"
"Something like that. It should not be a big problem."
"Alright. I will accompany you tomorrow. The other person is very mysterious. You can visit him, but don't cause any trouble. Normal etiquette will do."
"Got it, housekeeper!"
Shen Qian glared at him. "You are the housekeeper. Let's go back early. Don't run around at night."
Li Dong chuckled and waved at her as he got into the car. After a while, the Maybach started to move.
When Shen Qian was out of sight, Li Dong let out a long sigh.
Du Anmin was leaving. This was not the source of his worry.
He had already prepared for this. Even if Du Anmin did not say it, he would know what to do.
The key was the other meaning that Du Anmin had revealed. He hoped that Shen Qian would leave with him.
Old Du's words revealed this intention. He also specifically mentioned that Shen Qian would be 30 after the New Year.
Li Dong was not an idiot. He understood what Du Anmin meant.
But he was really troubled by this matter. Shen Qian would be 30. What should he do?
It was impossible to give up. Li Dong would not let Shen Qian go. But if Shen Qian did not leave, should he continue to fool her?
Shen Qian did not say anything. But the more she did not say anything, the more distressed Li Dong was.
This matter had to be resolved. Whether it was for Shen Qian or for Du Anmin, he had to give an explanation.
Otherwise, if this went on, there might be big trouble.
…
25th of the twelfth month.
Li Dong and Shen Qian paid a visit to the mysterious provincial government.
After coming out of Courtyard 2, Li Dong said with some emotion, "This person is not simple. There are not many people in Jiangbei who give me this feeling. He is more profound than your father."
Shen Qian did not feel that Li Dong was belittling her father. She nodded and agreed, "That's true. Anyway, I am a little scared when I see him."
"Miss Shen, you also have times when you are scared?" Li Dong joked.
"What's wrong with being scared? I am not made of iron. This person is so profound that I can't see through him. Naturally, I am a little scared. "
"Well, I can't blame you for being scared. I feel a little uncomfortable talking to him." Li Dong said and then said with a smile, "But the result is not bad. It seems that this person has good intentions for Far away."
Although it was only a brief conversation, Li Dong still benefited a lot.
Not to mention anything else, just the few pieces of news revealed by this person made Li Dong a little excited.
Although he did not say it clearly, Li Dong also knew that he would not say it so straightforwardly, but it was fine as long as he understood the general idea.
First, the Distance Charitable Fund, the provincial government may refund part of the tax.
The five hundred million donated by Li Dong would definitely not be refunded, but the two hundred million donated by Faraway Group would most likely be refunded from the tax.
In other words, he earned two hundred million from this trip.
Although this money was still Far away's money, since it was used for charity, Li Dong did not expect to get it back.
Now that he could get a commitment from the provincial government, it was a pleasant surprise.
Of course, compared to the two hundred million that belonged to him, there was another piece of news that made Li Dong even more excited.
Although Old Qin's words were not direct, it was clear that he would communicate with the Sunan government in the near future and strive to provide some help for the cooperation between Far Away and Suning.
Both companies were local leading enterprises. Now that they were going to go global, the provincial government would also benefit.
It was not just face, but there were also some practical benefits.
Therefore, Old Qin revealed that the two companies should sign the agreement as soon as possible. When the first batch of investment funds was in place, he would strive to help ask for some policies.
With the help of the two provincial governments, even if they did not give a dime, Li Dong felt that it was worth it.
At least the government's attitude was here. Far Away and Suning could save a lot of trouble.
This matter was even more worth looking forward to than the previous two hundred million, but the specifics had to wait until the formal cooperation was reached.
