Chapter 394 Director Jin and Qi Xi, Xiao Xue's close friendship
Chapter 394 Director Jin and Qixi, Xiaoxue's close friendship
As a giant group company, Smile Holdings has a very strict internal organizational structure.
The highest decision-making body is the "Operations Management Office".
The director is Executive Director Jin Meixiao, who is responsible for coordinating business strategy, planning, budgeting, execution and daily operations.
Internal members include business-related group executives, heads of various business units, and heads of marketing system battle zones.
Kim Mi-so's assistant also belongs to this highest management body.
Many of them work in the head office or holding company, helping the group control its vast network of businesses.
That's why the three of them were so shocked when Tian Jing revealed Shangguan Qiuya's identity.
In other words, standing in front of them are the real core executives of Smile Holdings, the big guys who can directly decide the direction of certain businesses.
Facing such a big shot, even Wang Yubo was nervous.
His so-called "partners" are just bragging.
Smile Holdings is so large in scale that it covers a wide range of fields. Even some small supermarkets can be said to have business cooperation with it.
Just like some people using Alibaba and Penguin’s cloud servers, they can openly mark “strategic cooperation with Alibaba and Penguin” on their own websites.
Wang Yubo clenched his fist and smiled widely. "Good afternoon, Mr. Zheng. I am Wang Yubo from Yuanjian Holdings. We have met several times before. You should still remember me, right?"
Zheng Qiudong looked away from Tian Jing, stood up, looked at him and said, "Hello, of course I remember. I met your father in Jiangcheng last week."
After so many years of working in the human resources field, he has an extremely extensive network of contacts.
Yuanjian Co., Ltd. is one of their company's long-term customers, and he naturally has an impression of the chairman Wang Le'an's son.
Then, Zheng Qiudong looked at Tian Jing next to him, with a look of deep curiosity in his eyes.
Is this the payroll manager at Jinxiu Trading who has a relationship with Mr. Tang?
Noticing Zheng Qiudong's gaze, Xiao Jing quickly smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Zheng, I'm Tian Jing."
Although he didn't know the other person, because of the relationship with Shangguan Qiuya, he naturally had to take the initiative to say hello.
What's more, she just doesn't like socializing, she's not a naive person.
Someone like Zheng Qiudong is far inferior to his own father, so naturally he has to be kind and friendly.
"Hello, Xiaojing." The smile on Zheng Qiudong's face became much more friendly and natural.
Looking at the two people greeting each other.
Shen Yuyan's excitement and nervousness gradually subsided, and he quickly put his arm around Xiaojing's arm.
Straightening his back, he smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Zheng, I'm Shen Yuyan, it's an honor to meet you."
MAHA Cloud is indeed a top social platform.
I just came here once, but I met people like Zheng Qiudong and Shangguan Qiuya.
"Hello." Zheng Qiudong nodded politely without paying too much attention to her.
Noticing the change in the other party's attitude, Shen Yuyan felt an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.
But he quickly adjusted himself.
This was just our first meeting, and I was just an ordinary person, so it was normal to be treated like this.
On the contrary, Xiaojing's background is definitely far beyond his imagination.
Being able to enter Smile Holdings is one thing, but being able to get to know Director Jin’s assistant is another.
No wonder she became Tang Song’s official girlfriend!
Even through the filter, Qingqing is still much worse than her.
Family background, temperament, power, figure...
Of course, my best friend Qingqing is not without merits, for example...
Like... ahem... cosplay? Meow meow meow?
Just as she was daydreaming.
Wang Yubo turned his gaze to Shangguan Qiuya who stood up from her seat, and said with a warm smile: "I just happened to come out to eat with Miss Tian today. I didn't expect to meet Ms. Shangguan by chance. I'm so lucky."
Hearing his words, Shangguan Qiuya nodded coldly.
He looked at Tian Jing and said, "Xiao Jing, come and sit over here. The Bill Harlan wine here is pretty good, you should try it."
"Thank you, Sister Shangguan." Xiao Jing nodded with a smile and brought Shen Yuyan to the long table.
She didn't like Wang Yubo and Ren Mingyuan in the first place, and didn't want to drink and chat with them, so she took this opportunity to slip away.
Sensing something was wrong, the smile on Wang Yubo's face froze slightly. He didn't understand how he had offended Shangguan Qiuya.
He also noticed that Zheng Qiudong's eyes on him had changed.
For a moment, my mind was full of doubts.
He just wanted to use Tian Jing's relationship to establish a better relationship with them, and it seemed that he didn't say anything excessive.
Puzzled, Wang Yubo smiled and said politely, "Then you guys chat, Mingyuan and I will go sit in the lounge over there for a while."
In this case, the best option is to stay away and avoid real conflicts.
"Okay, bye." "Bye."
Ren Mingyuan opened his mouth, said goodbye, and followed Wang Yubo out of the rest area.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Shangguan Qiuya narrowed her eyes slightly and her gaze became sharp.
He picked up a glass and poured a glass of wine for Tian Jing, then asked softly, "Xiao Jing, how did you and Wang Yubo know each other? Why did you go to MAHA Cloud with him?"
Xiao Jing was startled, then she grabbed Shen Yuyan's arm and said in a low voice, "I came here with Sister Yanyan to join in the fun."
Feeling Shangguan Qiuya's gaze, Shen Yuyan shuddered and said quickly: "This is also the first time I meet Mr. Wang. He invested in Win-Win Technology, which is our company's investor and partner."
"Oh." Shangguan Qiuya smiled again, patted Tian Jing on the back, and said softly: "The situation of the second generation in the imperial capital is very complicated. You should focus on the group training. It is better not to have in-depth contact with some people."
"Yeah, I know." Xiao Jing nodded, "Thank you, Sister Shangguan, for your concern."
She was such a smart person that she had a rough idea of what kind of person Wang Yubo was after a brief contact with him.
It's not that it's bad, but she just doesn't like it.
She has come into contact with many such people through the introduction of friends or parents.
For example, Liang Yufan, the person her father had always wanted to bring together.
Perhaps because both her names contain the word "Yu", she subconsciously resisted communicating with Wang Yubo.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have given him the face and directly rejected him at the dinner party he organized.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Shen Yuyan pursed his lips and felt extremely complicated.
The value of Xiaojing's network is still increasing.
Judging from Shangguan Qiuya's attitude, this is not an ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates.
"Da——" A wine glass was placed in front of her.
Shen Yuyan raised his head and saw Zheng Qiudong nodding at him.
"Thank you, Mr. Zheng!" Shen Yuyan quickly held the wine glass with both hands, an excited look on his face.
Originally, she felt a little disappointed because of Shangguan Qiuya's neglect.
At this time, Zheng Qiudong poured himself some wine, and his self-esteem and vanity were instantly greatly satisfied.
"You're welcome." Zheng Qiudong smiled gently.
Under the light, the crystal wine exudes a unique texture.
Shen Yuyan gently pulled the wine glass in front of him, and the mellow fruity aroma and light smoky smell filled his nose, intoxicating.
Glancing at the dark red wine bottle not far away, Shen Yuyan's eyes flashed slightly.
It was... Harlan Cabernet Sauvignon.
Famous wines that cost more than 10,000 yuan.
As a woman who aspires to enter a higher circle, she has learned about things that can enhance her social attributes.
Such as red wine, perfume, luxury goods, finance...
Then she looked at Zheng Qiudong opposite her calmly.
He is about 40 years old, with a tough yet handsome face, deep and bright eyes, and an elegant, wise, confident and mysterious temperament.
Unlike second-generation talents like Wang Yubo, he has an invisible charm and aura that naturally makes people feel awe and yearning for him.
This was what she imagined a true top business elite to be.
Zheng Qiudong raised his glass and said, "It's rare for us to meet here by chance, let's clink glasses together."
"Ding~Ding~Ding~" the sound of the glass colliding is particularly crisp and pleasant.
Shen Yuyan put the wine glass close to his lips and took a small sip. The slightly cool wine instantly spread from the tip of his tongue.
Rich fruity aromas with just the right amount of acidity.
The mellow tannins spread in the mouth like velvet, and the taste is full and delicate, like a dance on the tip of the tongue.
Of course, drinking is secondary. The most important things are the environment and people.
This should be the pinnacle moment of her life experience over the years.
Being in the top MAHA cloud club, sitting a hundred meters above the bustling imperial capital, you get to know big names like Zheng Qiudong and Shangguan Qiuya.
Shen Yuyan just felt like she was floating in the air, her mood was extremely excited, and a flush of excitement appeared on her face.
How I wish that one day I could truly become a member of this class!
……
A corner of the lounge.
Ren Mingyuan said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the friend Yu Yan brought here has such a great background and even knows Jin Meixiao's assistant."
"Yeah." Wang Yubo nodded slightly, his eyes showing thought.
Originally, when Ren Mingyuan said he would introduce him to a high-quality beauty, he didn't take it seriously.
After all, there is no shortage of women around him.
However, after meeting her, he became very interested.
Both Shen Yuyan and Tian Jing are rare beauties.
Of course, if he really had to choose, it would definitely be Tian Jing.
After all, from the details of the contact, it can be seen that she is not a fake socialite, but a real white, rich and beautiful woman.
It's a pity that the other party didn't give me face, and it seems that his identity is not ordinary.
Excessive provocation will only bring trouble to yourself.
On the contrary, Shen Yuyan, who came from a genuine grassroots background, was ambitious, knowledgeable and interesting.
It can also be seen that she and Tian Jing do not actually have a close relationship, and she doesn't even know that Tian Jing knows Shangguan Qiuya.
It is a very good choice.
Wang Yubo looked at Shen Yuyan who was sitting there, and said casually: "Shen Yuyan is currently the general manager of Youjie Housekeeping, right? How many shares does she have?"
Ren Mingyuan quickly said, "26%, but after all, he is one of the founders and still has absolute control over the company."
Wang Yubo clinked glasses with him, took a big sip of red wine, and said in a deep voice: "She is a good talent. Her image, temperament, eloquence, and ability are all excellent. Let her come to work at Win-Win Technology. In the future, she can work with me on some projects."
Ren Mingyuan understood what he meant instantly and shook his head, saying, "Yuyan is indeed an outstanding girl. I invited her to work at Win-Win Technology as the brand manager, responsible for smart home brand marketing, but she refused."
"Oh? Why?" Wang Yubo raised his eyebrows slightly. "Ujie Housekeeping is just a small company with a valuation of more than 10 million. Whether it is development prospects or platforms, it is far inferior to Win-Win Technology."
Ren Mingyuan said meaningfully: "This beautiful girl Shen from our school is very ambitious. She works not just to make money, but hopes to achieve class leap through a successful startup. In other words, she doesn't like the management position of our Win-Win Technology. She cooperates with us in the hope of using our Smart Home APP platform to make Youjie Home Service a success."
"Haha, very good, I like ambitious women." Wang Yubo laughed softly and said, "You find a way to gain control of Youjie Housekeeping, and then I will invite her in person."
"Uh..." Ren Mingyuan said with some embarrassment: "Director Wang, she is my junior, and our cooperation was arranged through the Yancheng Entrepreneurship Incubation Park. Isn't this inappropriate?"
"Go away, don't give me that." Wang Yubo patted his shoulder. "You deliberately divided the investment into two parts, isn't it just to gain more control? I just want you to do it more decisively."
As the company's major shareholder, although he does not work at Win-Win Technology, he also knows the company's business direction.
For example, the cooperation with housekeeping companies is not just about Youjie Housekeeping.
Win-Win Technology contacted four such small companies at the same time, respectively in the regions where their business accounted for the largest proportion.
Youjie Housekeeping in Yancheng is just the beginning.
Later, they will use strict investment terms to gradually turn the four housekeeping companies into "vassals" of Win-Win Technology.
Bring them traffic and value-added services, and help them expand their business scope.
Ren Mingyuan whispered, "Okay, I understand. But from what I know about Shen Yuyan, even if she leaves Youjie Housekeeping, it's unlikely that she will work at Gongying Technology, unless she is given shares."
Wang Yubo chuckled and said, "I will be transferred from Yuanjian Shares to Mingjian Capital soon, and I just happen to be in need of reliable subordinates. Doesn't Shen Yuyan have the ambition to cross the class? Financial companies are the best platform, and I don't think she will reject me."
Mingjian Capital is a well-known private equity fund company in China.
Due to the influence of his father, he was no small fry after joining the company, but the director of the fund department, responsible for fund raising.
Through previous contacts, he could see that Shen Yuyan was very keen on making connections and moving up the social ladder, and coupled with her strong ambition and desire, as long as she wanted to climb up, it would be difficult for her to resist the temptation of this opportunity.
Because he happens to have what the other person needs.
Ren Mingyuan's eyes flickered, and he raised his glass with a smile, "Then congratulations to Director Wang in advance."
"Haha, I have another important reason to ask you to come this time. After I join the company, we can start preparing for the C+ round of funding for Gongying Technology, and Mingjian Capital will follow up with the investment at that time."
"Oh?" Ren Mingyuan's eyes lit up instantly, "Are you preparing for the listing?"
"Well, it has met the listing requirements of the New Third Board. With the support of big capital, everything will go smoothly from now on."
Ren Mingyuan took a deep breath, and a strong excitement surged in his heart, "Thank you, Mr. Wang!"
He was one of the earliest founding team members of Win-Win Technology and still holds 11% of the company's shares.
Of course, that was because other members were squeezed out during the company's development, and the equity was passed to him and two other partners.
Haven’t they been working hard for so many years just to go public?
As long as the company's stock has been listed for one year, they can transfer and cash out.
Only then can these illusory equity holdings be truly converted into money.
Wang Yubo took a sip of wine and looked at Shen Yuyan who was sitting there with a playful smile.
He was looking forward to the scene where Shen Yuyan was kicked out of Youjie Housekeeping, lost her only hope and became disheartened, and then was moved by his own conditions and became distorted.
Playing with human nature is always the greatest pleasure.
He was more interested in this ambitious woman.
……
“The management skills course that Sister Shangguan gave us was great and really helpful to me.”
"Also, how to understand the work priorities and interests of other departments and establish good cross-departmental cooperation..."
Xiao Jing was talking about what she had gained from the corporate training, and the flattery was loud.
Shangguan Qiuya was originally a very elegant and dignified person, and the smile on her face never stopped.
Shen Yuyan's feelings towards Xiaojing deepened again.
This is not the "stupid girl" that Qingqing mentioned, but a rich and beautiful girl who truly grew up with elite education.
They know how to read people's expressions, are confident and generous, follow the etiquette of the occasion, and have their own unique personal charm.
If they really met in real life, Qingqing's little thoughts would only make her a toy for Xiaojing.
At the same time, she also knew why Xiaojing knew Shangguan Qiuya.
As Director Jin's assistant, Shangguan Qiuya once personally gave training courses to the middle-level leaders of this holding company.
The practice group that Xiaojing was assigned to happened to be the department managed by Shangguan Qiuya.
After a few interactions, the two became familiar with each other.
Shangguan Qiuya seemed to like Xiaojing particularly and was extremely enthusiastic towards her.
On the surface, this seemed to be an opportunity for an ordinary employee to be favored by the company's big boss.
But Shen Yuyan keenly sensed that something was wrong.
She didn't believe that a person like Shangguan Qiuya would be so easily swayed by personal emotions.
...
1: p.m.
Xiao Jing stood up, holding her bag, and waved with a sweet smile, "Goodbye, Sister Shangguan, goodbye, Mr. Zheng."
"Goodbye." "Goodbye."
Watched the two figures slowly leave.
Zheng Qiudong leaned on the armrest of the sofa, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "This Xiao Jing is very smart, but not too smart. President Tang has a good eye."
His sitting posture was casual, yet revealed a calmness that came from a lifetime of experience.
"Yes, that's why Director Jin admires her." Shangguan Qiuya tilted her legs and smiled elegantly, "At least she is more likable than the friend next to her. Shen Yuyan is too utilitarian."
"Haha, that's because you've been in the clouds for too long, and your life has been too smooth." Zheng Qiudong shook his head, "From a personal perspective, I actually appreciate Shen Yuyan's character more, perhaps because she is a bit like me."
His life was full of ups and downs, setbacks and hardships.
In his early days, he was arrogant and had a strong desire for success and career pursuit.
Despite repeated setbacks in his career, he never gave up and always worked hard.
His character also contains elements of being eager for quick success and being impatient.
He once tried to take shortcuts in the hope of achieving quick success, and even joined a pyramid scheme, for which he was eventually sentenced.
If he had not met Mr. Tang later, his life would certainly not have been so successful and wonderful.
He saw some shadows of his past self in Shen Yuyan.
Hearing his words, Shangguan Qiuya did not refute. After thinking for a moment, she nodded seriously and said, "Brother Zheng is right. I am one-sided."
"Haha, don't take it seriously, I just said it casually."
Shangguan Qiuya chuckled and said, "Thank you, Brother Zheng, for inviting me to dinner today. Regarding the merger proposal of Dejurenhe, I suggest that you personally talk to Director Jin on the Chinese Valentine's Day. Maybe she will agree to it directly."
"Oh?" Zheng Qiudong leaned forward instantly, and whispered with a gossipy look on his face: "Qixi? Is it related to Mr. Tang?"
"I can't tell you. I can't tell you." Shangguan Qiuya smiled mysteriously, "I haven't even told Director Jin about this yet."
Zheng Qiudong was incredulous: "Director Jin doesn't know? Aren't you afraid that she will be angry?"
"Of course I'm not afraid." Shangguan Qiuya raised her eyebrows. "Last time, Lin Tiantian reported the news to Director Jin in advance, so now the work in this area is handed over to me." (Chapter 84)
Zheng Qiudong took a deep breath, his curiosity and gossip were completely aroused.
This is a big melon!
I'll ask other people later!
……
9 o'clock in the evening.
Yancheng, Yanjing Huating Community.
"Is Tingzi still off work?"
"Yeah, she just finished the broadcast and it will take her half an hour to get home. Tingzi is also lucky. Now she has 5% of the shares of Songmei Clothing. She works very hard every day."
"Haha, it's all because of Tang Song, this good boss." Lin Muxue smiled and shook her head, "By the way, Qianqian, the Chinese Valentine's Day is coming soon, have you planned how to celebrate it?"
Hearing her words, Zhao Yaqian, who was practicing yoga, smiled instantly and turned around and said, "Of course I'm spending it with Brother Song. This is our first Valentine's Day together. I prepared a gift for him. I'm sure he will like it."
"That's great, I wish you a happy Valentine's Day."
Lin Muxue smiled and nodded, with a barely perceptible hint of disappointment in her eyes.
After all, she is not Tang Song’s serious girlfriend.
When it comes to things like Valentine's Day, you can only stay away from them.
Fortunately, I have a gift, so I should be satisfied.
Thinking of the Valentine's Day gift that Tang Song was about to give her, Lin Muxue's heart felt like it was filled with honey.
There was a look of great anticipation on his face.
The last time I looked forward to a day so much was the days before the Chinese New Year when I was a child.
Our family was very poor at that time, so we would only buy her new clothes before the Chinese New Year.
Later, when I went to high school, I had my own meager living expenses and was able to save money to buy my own clothes.
"Oh, by the way, Xiaoxue." Zhao Yaqian looked at her expression and said with a smile, "On Valentine's Day... do you want to join us?"
"One, together with what?" Lin Muxue's face instantly turned red. "I'd better not disturb you. Besides... Tang Song should be very busy."
She had a deep understanding of Tang and Song, and knew about the existence of Wen Ruan, Xie Shuyu, Shen Yuyan, Xu Qing and others.
This Valentine's Day, Tang Song is destined to become a master of time management.
She didn't want to cause trouble for him.
Zhao Yaqian hugged Xiaoxue with a smile and whispered in her ear: "Let's play together? I won't help my brother this time, but I will help you, okay? Let's fight the BOSS together!"
"Uh..." Lin Muxue pressed her legs together and whispered, "I don't believe you. If Tang Song gives an order, you will rebel again. And your tongue..."
"Oh, what are you talking about!" Zhao Yaqian's face turned red instantly.
The two of them played around on the sofa for a while, seeming extremely intimate and warm.
Zhao Yaqian hugged Lin Muxue and suddenly said, "Xiaoxue, can you tell me about your past? I've known you for so long, but you never told me."
"My past..." Lin Muxue was stunned, and a look of struggle flashed in her eyes.
Her past was not glorious, and could even be said to be very dark, which was why she had always been reluctant to mention it.
Subconsciously, she hopes that she is the "financial intellectual" Lin Muxue, rather than the Xiaoxue who can be stepped on by anyone.
"Xiaoxue." Zhao Yaqian looked into her eyes and said in a sweet and innocent tone, "Actually, I'm not as stupid as you think. I've been in contact with you for so long that I know some things even if you don't tell me. I just sincerely regard you as a friend and sister, and I want to share our past with you."
Although she is not very smart, she is not a fool either.
He is just a little naive and not very worldly-wise.
The complicated experiences during this period have made her grow a lot.
Some things had already been known to him, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to talk about privacy with Xiaoxue and dragged her to Tang Song's hometown.
For example, the previously fictitious job, the rented house, and the family and university that I never want to mention.
She could feel that Lin Muxue was sometimes particularly conflicted and entangled.
She really hoped to have a heart-to-heart talk with Xiaoxue.
Looking at her sincere beautician friend, Lin Muxue bit her moist lips, took a deep breath and said, "Qianqian, accompany me to eat skewers."
"Okay, I've been dieting recently for dancing, and I've been wanting to indulge myself for a long time. Wait for me to change my clothes!" Zhao Yaqian showed a bright smile on her face.
After saying that, he ran into the master bedroom barefoot, "dong dong dong".
A few minutes later.
The beautician, wearing a light sportswear, came out and waved, "Gogogo!"
"Bang——" the door was closed gently.
The elevator slowly goes down.
Soon, a matte gray Porsche 911 drove out of the underground garage, its bright lights sweeping across the street as it headed forward.
More than twenty minutes later.
The car entered a dilapidated old neighborhood and stopped in a parking space on the side of the road.
The two men opened the car door and got out, and the rich aroma of barbecue hit them in the face.
At the barbecue stall not far away, the blower was whirring.
A slightly plump middle-aged woman was grilling skewers, with smoke and fire everywhere.
There was a little girl about 10 years old next to her.
"It smells so good!" Zhao Yaqian swallowed her saliva and asked with sparkling eyes, "Is this the one?"
Lin Muxue's eyes were filled with a hint of melancholy, and she smiled and said, "Well, I often came here to eat when I was in school. Let's go."
Seeing the two people approaching, the proprietress was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Xiaoxue, you are here? Come and sit over here, what do you want to eat?"
"Sister Xiaoxue." The little girl next to her greeted her and looked at her timidly.
I haven't seen Sister Xiaoxue for a while, and I feel that she has become different. She seems very capable.
"Yes, I'm here." Lin Muxue showed a big smile on her face and waved to the little girl, "Weiwei, I haven't seen you for a long time. I brought you a gift."
As she spoke, Lin Muxue handed over a fashionable and beautiful hairband.
"I..." Weiwei put her hands behind her back and looked at her mother with her big eyes.
"Take it. Thank you, Sister Xiaoxue."
Weiwei showed an embarrassed smile on her face, took the hairband, bent down and said: "Thank you, Sister Xiaoxue!"
Lin Muxue smiled, ordered some skewers, and pulled Zhao Yaqian to sit in a corner.
Soon, grilled skewers were served on the table, much more than she ordered, and Weiwei also brought them two bottles of Arctic Ocean.
"cheers!"
"Ding~~" the glass bottles clinked together.
After taking a sip of the cold drink, Lin Muxue pointed to a building not far away.
He whispered, "I went to college there before, Yancheng Vocational and Technical College, a genuine junior college, and I majored in flight attendants."
Zhao Yaqian blinked and smiled, "You are much better than me. I only graduated from high school. No wonder you are so graceful, Xiaoxue. You are a flight attendant!"
Lin Muxue looked at her beautician friend opposite her and her eyes suddenly became moist.
