Li Zhicheng, Li Zhicheng, a man as deep as the sea.
For more than a month, this man had been showing off his abilities. Apart from pulling the Vinda brand out of the company, he was also doing everything he could to strip Aida of its assets. After the online sales gained a firm foothold, he, Gu Yanzhi, and Liu Tong immediately launched a new organizational structure adjustment plan, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
The huge Aida, which had been complicated and complicated, was completely broken up. The group headquarters only kept the core links such as production, purchasing, and after-sales, and controlled all the terminal sales networks. The planning and sales of all major products were all set up independent departments, with independent accounting and self-responsibility for profits and losses. It was similar to the relationship between the new Vinda company and the Aida Group.
All the adjustments were announced overnight and implemented the next day. His attitude was very aggressive, not giving anyone a chance to resist.
The internal management problems that Lin Qian had been worried about were solved by him in such a bold and decisive way. Incompetent, redundant, out of touch with the market? Okay, if you lost money, you wouldn't be able to continue working and would just leave. Capable and innovative, could you bring new growth to Aida? It was said that Li Zhicheng had promised a generous bonus …
To resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal situation. Desperate times call for desperate measures. If "stabilizing the internal situation" was the second step of Li Zhicheng's chess game, Lin Qian had to say that he had begun to see results. In the process of constantly breaking up and reorganizing the group's assets, the originally lifeless Aida was completely revitalized and firmly controlled by him.
And Li Zhicheng, the cool, handsome, and ruthless CEO, was gaining more and more prestige in the hearts of all the employees, reaching a level that everyone looked up to. Everyone was in awe when they talked about the boss. It was said that some young girls, who even called themselves "Lychee," had formed a "Boss Fan Club."
The new company was established ten days ago, with Xue Mingtao as the CEO and the former manager of Aida's information management department as the vice CEO. Lin Qian, as the assistant CEO, was in charge of the customer service center, as well as administrative, human resources, and finance.
The new company was indeed a new atmosphere. The online flagship store's sales had been high, and the internal management was very simple and efficient. This company with hundreds of employees had become Aida's biggest profit point.
Lin Qian hummed softly and walked back to the office. As soon as he reached the outer room, he saw that the expressions of the employees were a little off. They were all silent out of fear, but they also seemed to be faintly agitated.
Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat. A staff member stood up and whispered, "CEO Lin, CEO Li is here. He's in your office."
Lin Qian stood in front of her office and gently knocked on the door. When she heard the familiar and deep male voice say "come in", she slowly pushed the door open.
The room was filled with sunlight and silence.
Li Zhicheng was sitting in her chair behind the desk. With his back facing her, he looked at the setting sun outside the window.
Over the past month, Lin Qian had met with him quite a few times, but almost all of them were at work. The pace was hectic and she was one of his subordinates reporting work and participating in discussions. Sometimes, they would only look at him through the crowd, at his calm and dignified face.
She was already used to it. Like the others, she began to look up at him from afar. The honest man in her memory that she had once mistakenly believed to be was completely gone.
The current him was no longer a stranger. Because this was the real him.
She also rarely thought of him. Sometimes, after a busy day, she would lie on the desk in the office and look at the soft-toned curtains and the enchanting geometrically shaped window panes. Only then would she remember that he had probably bought this office for her. Every decoration was to her liking. It was obvious that he had put a lot of thought into it.
How could a person like him have such thoughts about a woman?
Lin Qian would occasionally feel a little guilty and upset. Now that she thought about it, he had planned to confess his love to her and take her to see the new office. But she had rejected him instantly. Now that she thought about it, she had been quite ruthless.
Every time she thought about it, she told herself, "Well, it's all in the past." Now she was the vanguard under his command. She had been entrusted with a heavy responsibility. She had to work harder and harder.
Lin Qian sat down across from him and said with a smile, "CEO Li, what brings you here today?" Her tone couldn't have been more polite and serious.
But when Li Zhicheng turned his head to look at her, all her efforts were shattered.
At this moment, he was sitting very close to her. He didn't look any different from a month ago, when they were still together day and night. He was tall and slender, wearing a well-made suit and shirt sleeves. His slender and strong hands rested lightly on the armrests of the chair. His face was well-defined, his cheekbones were slightly high, and he still had that kind of chiseled handsomeness. When he turned his head and looked at her with his deep, dark eyes, Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat when she saw his eyes, his face, and his clean, slender neck. It felt as if a few blades of grass had suddenly sprouted on a piece of land that had been peaceful for a long time.
Sometimes, only when someone was sitting right in front of you, when you could see his face clearly, you would realize that no matter how long you hadn't seen him, his influence on you and the feelings he gave you had always been there and had never changed.
"I'm here to check on Vinda's sales." His voice was as deep as water. At the same time, he lowered his head and flipped through some reports and documents on Lin Qian's desk. The sunlight shone on his clean profile. The man was as handsome as a painting.
Lin Qian said, "Okay. Then should I … give you a brief report? "
"Okay."
The two of them sat motionlessly. The room was quiet. As Lin Qian spoke, she could still vaguely hear people's footsteps and conversations outside the window and downstairs. And the small tank of goldfish on the bookcase, bright red and glistening, swimming back and forth between the two of them …
Lin Qian couldn't help but glance at him again and again.
He seemed to have just gotten a haircut. His hairstyle was shorter than before, revealing his full and angular forehead. In the past, Lin Qian had noticed that his eyes were slightly bigger than the average man's, deep and clear. But now, there was a hint of tiredness between his brows. Had he been working too hard recently? There was even a faint smell of alcohol on him. His posture, leaning against the chair, was more casual and languid than before. Did he have a lunch meeting to attend? Even though he was the head of the group, he still had to socialize with some government officials and big business partners. Tsk tsk, it was hard to imagine what he looked like at the dinner table …
Soon, the report was finished. Lin Qian asked tentatively, "Mr. Li, that's about the situation in the company. Do you have any instructions? "
He was still flipping through the documents in front of him with a calm expression. "No."
Lin Qian didn't know what to say.
No? Why didn't a big boss like you go to the CEO's office or the vice president's office? Why did you suddenly come to my office? She had thought that he had come because he wanted to tell her some secret.
The two of them faced each other in silence.
Although he didn't say a word, with his eyes lowered in concentration, Lin Qian could still feel his omnipresent cold aura.
Lin Qian was someone who couldn't sit still. Soon, she noticed that the glass in front of him was empty. Naturally, she wanted to stand up. "I'll go get you some water …"
"No need." Li Zhicheng didn't even raise his head. His cold voice interrupted her. "I'm a little tired. Just sit here and keep me company."
I'm a little tired. Just sit here and keep me company.
Lin Qian was stunned, a little confused.
Suddenly, her face felt a little hot.
It was a feeling she hadn't felt for a long time.
She had always thought that they were in the past.
But why did his seemingly unintentional words make her feel like … he was making a comeback?
However, in the past month, Lin Qian had been acting independently and leading a department with dozens of people. Her mentality had also matured a lot. She quickly calmed down.
Since she was already here, she would take things as they came. She continued to sit across from him, quietly accompanying him as he read the documents.
After staying like that for half an hour, she was a little bored by him and began to let her imagination run wild. The ancients said that "the beauty in the sleeves adds fragrance to the sleeves." Based on what he said just now, did he think it was good for her to quietly accompany him to read the boring documents?
Stop, stop, what was she thinking about?
Damn it, how was her mentality mature?! She had been an arrogant leader in a place far away from the emperor for a month. But now the emperor was here, and with one sentence, he messed her up.
Lin Qian was a person who would fight bravely when faced with difficulties. And when she was flustered, she would always do something to cover it up. So she tried to find a topic of conversation. "Mr. Li, how's the company recently?"
This topic was obviously the right one, because Li Zhicheng put down the documents in his hands and looked up at her with a faint smile on his face. "As of yesterday, the organizational structure and personnel adjustments of the group are all in place."
Lin Qian felt the same way. She praised in her heart, "Good!" This meant that Li Zhicheng had completely completed the internal reorganization and solved the most difficult problem.
She was about to say something to sincerely express her congratulations and admiration. Unexpectedly, Li Zhicheng stared at her with his quiet, deep eyes. At the same time, he changed the topic and said slowly but firmly, "So, now I can focus on pursuing the other goals I want."
Lin Qian nodded. "Yes, we can …"
Before she finished her sentence, she suddenly realized … No!
He wants … other goals?
Lin Qian's face suddenly turned completely red.
Was she being too sensitive because she had a guilty conscience?
No matter how she looked at it, it sounded like some kind of declaration of war. As if he was saying that because he had complete control of the company, he could now … deal with her?
Lin Qian's mind was in a mess, but he acted as if he hadn't said anything ambiguous. He calmly picked up one of the documents and pointed to a piece of data, asking her for details.
Lin Qian was a little hesitant. Maybe he was only referring to business matters? So she calmed herself down and carefully explained to him.
After a while, someone knocked on the door and came in.
It was Li Zhicheng's new assistant, Jiang Yuan, a young man transferred from the marketing department. When Lin Qian left Aida, his assistant was the young girl Yang Xiru that Gu Yanzhi had arranged for him. She didn't know when, but for some reason, he had been replaced.
With a third party present, Lin Qian subconsciously felt relieved. Although young, Jiang Yuan was amiable and capable. He took out two tickets from the folder and handed them to Li Zhicheng. "Mr. Li, Mr. Kang of Ming Sheng Group asked someone to send these tickets to the New Year's Eve tea party at Rongya Clubhouse tomorrow night." He looked at Li Zhicheng's face. "Are you going? I'll arrange a car in advance. "
"Leave it." Li Zhicheng said noncommittally. Jiang Yuan smiled at Lin Qian, turned around, and left, closing the door behind him.
Li Zhicheng continued to read the documents, not even looking at the two tickets. Lin Qian's eyes involuntarily drifted over. Rongya Clubhouse was one of the most famous places in Lin City. Located in the depths of the courtyard of the ancient city, it was quiet and simple. Whether it was the exquisite food or the opera performances, it was the best in the southwest. Usually, it was very difficult to get tickets. Lin Qian had been there a few times before and liked it very much. The annual New Year's Eve tea party was even more difficult to get. And looking at the ticket number, it was a VIP box ticket, which made her envious.
She didn't expect that Mr. Kang of Ming Sheng Group would give it to Li Zhicheng. It seemed that they still had a good relationship.
As she was thinking, she heard a clear voice in her ear. "Want to go?"
Lin Qian was startled and looked up at him.
He was also looking at her with quiet, dark eyes.
"Yesterday, I played chess with Mr. Kang for five hours and won these two tickets," he said lightly. "Do you want to go together?"
Lin Qian's heart began to beat rapidly again, and she did not speak for a moment. Probably because of her silence, Li Zhicheng stared at her lightly. "Don't think too much, go if you like it. This is … my year-end bonus for my adjutant. "
Lin Qian heard him mention the word "adjutant", which was completely ambiguous, and somehow her face became even redder. But he was very calm in his speech, and his reason was also very good, as if he was really talking to his adjutant, Lin Qian, and not Lin Qian, a woman.
Fortunately, she did not have to choose whether to go or not, because she lowered her head and answered, "… Mr. Li, thank you. I really like this tea party, but I have already booked a ticket for tonight to the United States for the New Year. "
It was night, and the moon was like a curved hook. Lin City was decorated with lanterns and colored banners to welcome the New Year's Eve.
When Li Zhicheng arrived at the sanatorium, it was already past eight o 'clock. His assistant, Jiang Yuan, followed behind him, carrying some gifts for the chairman.
Xu Yong was very happy to see his son. He knew that he had been overhauling the group recently, and he felt both helpless and gratified. Because of the three conditions that Li Zhicheng had made him, the first was to exchange shares for Vinda, and the second was that during his tenure, no one was allowed to interfere with the group's affairs, including him, the father.
The father and son sat in front of the courtyard's porch, with a pot of tea and moonlight on the floor.
Xu Yong said, "Now that the group has been saved by you, I am very happy. I don't want to say too much, the road ahead is still very difficult. The more favorable the situation is, the more cautious you have to be. The leaders of New Bori and SMQ are not simple characters. "
Li Zhicheng answered calmly, "I know."
Xu Yong asked again, "Have you thought about your next step?"
Li Zhicheng nodded.
Xu Yong was interested, "What do you plan to do?"
Li Zhicheng was obviously not talkative as usual, and only answered in a low voice, "You will see."
Xu Yong looked at him with a smile. His previous diversion tactic had shocked everyone in the industry who knew the inside story. Now, although he was plain, his calm and decisive words made Xu Yong's imagination run wild. Was he going to start another bloody war in the industry?
Unfortunately, his son was a taciturn person, no one could know what he didn't want to say. Xu Yong smiled and sighed, "Even Dad can't know? Forget it. Then let me ask you, when you get married in the future, will you tell her? "
Every parent would worry about their children's marriage, and Xu Yong was the same. Now that his son's career had been established, and he was already in his twenties, he naturally brought up this topic.
He thought that Li Zhicheng would definitely not answer, but after a moment of silence, he seemed to have thought of something, and a rare smile appeared on his lips.
Xu Yong was very surprised, and immediately asked, "What? You have a girlfriend? "
Li Zhicheng looked at the moonlight in the sky, and answered thoughtfully, "I put the whole plan in front of her."
"And then?"
Li Zhicheng answered softly, "She didn't dare to look."
Xu Yong was stunned, and suddenly laughed out loud. He patted his son's shoulder, "That's because you haven't gotten her yet. What do you plan to do? "
Li Zhicheng looked down at his watch, and his face became calm again, "The dew will turn white tonight, and the moon will be bright in my hometown. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and she's going to a foreign country to celebrate the New Year. For me, it might be an opportunity. "
Xu Yong didn't quite understand, and then he heard Li Zhicheng say, "I won't spend the New Year with you tomorrow. I've booked a ticket to America in two hours. "
