Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 412 Stray Dog

Chen Lu looked at Guo Huai, who was smiling, and felt a little depressed in her heart. This was hierarchical suppression. Chen Lu didn't have the courage to refuse, just like he did to Manager Zhu just now.

The salary she received prevented her from disobeying the reasonable requirements of her superiors, otherwise she would be in trouble with her own future.

"Thank you, Director Guo. I will definitely work hard!" Chen Lu seemed to have nothing else to say except gratitude and determination. Who doesn't want to take another step forward?

"Both the chairman and I are aware of your work ability. Go and do your work. Don't make any mistakes at this time!" Guo Huai waved to Chen Lu and asked her to leave.

Promoting Chen Lu was not Guo Huai's whim, at least it was a deliberate decision. It was not for anything else but to better control the company's operations.

The company is getting bigger and bigger, and it is becoming more and more difficult to rely on Guo Huai's limited knowledge.

Guo Huai knew that this was a phenomenon that Li Weidong once said. The era of making money by relying on recklessness and connections was disappearing, and the era of winning by intelligence was beginning to come.

Therefore, in order to better manage the company in recent years, Guo Huai has had to recruit talents from major hotels at home and abroad. None of the four vice presidents came from the original entrepreneurial period.

In fact, due to various limitations, most of the old people in the entrepreneurial period cannot keep up with the pace of the company's development no matter how hard they work.

It's not that they grow too slowly, but that the company develops too fast. When a company reaches a certain scale, it must eliminate some old people who can't keep up. This is a historical law.

Therefore, in the current Four Seasons Hotel, not only the vice president, most of the regional managers, and even most of the store managers are hired professional managers.

They are all senior talents with rich management experience and even more experience in workplace struggles. To be able to reach this position, apart from being thick-skinned, there must be something special about them.

Now Guo Huai has a feeling that he no longer has complete control over the manager's meeting, and many things in the company are being advanced unknowingly. This is terrible.

Although Guo Huai also followed Li Weidong's request and worked hard to improve his academic qualifications, from a high school graduate to now having a bachelor's degree certificate.

But Guo Huai knows better than anyone else how useful a correspondence class can be. As long as he doesn't have a grudge against his teacher, he will basically pass the exam and get a diploma.

And even if you study hard, the gaps in some aspects cannot be made up by hard work.

For a while, Guo Huai even wanted to propose the idea of ​​resigning to Li Weidong. He also wanted to be a pure shareholder like Li Weidong, just setting goals and receiving dividends when due.

But after hesitating for a long time, Guo Huai was still reluctant to give up his current status and reputation.

After several rounds of financing dilution in Four Seasons Hotel, Guo Huai's shares are only 4%. If he were not the chairman, he would be a small shareholder in the eyes of outsiders.

But it's different in the company. He is the executive who holds shares and has a strong say.

To be able to secure his current position under the current conditions, he must have his own team. Guo Huai thought about it for a long time, and Chen Lu, the person closest to the vice president, was suitable.

Although Chen Lu is also from Hong Kong Island, she has been there since the opening of the first Four Seasons Hotel store and is an entrepreneurial veteran. Moreover, Chen Lu's current position as regional general manager is also convenient.

Guo Huai watched Chen Lu go out, hesitated for a moment, took out his mobile phone and made several calls in succession, walked out of the office, and began to inspect the connected high-rise hotel.

The King came to patrol the mountain, and the King sent me to patrol the mountain. The nature is completely different. Guo Huai wants to ensure that the hotel is normal.

At this time, in a villa not far from here, Chen Gu was instructing his children to do their homework in order to be a qualified father. In fact, he did not know that such behavior would only make the relationship between father and son more tense.

God, the child kept thinking in his heart, why haven't you left yet?

After Chen Gu received Guo Huai's call, he was stunned for a moment and then said, "I won't write today. I'll clean up and take you out for dinner later!"

The child almost jumped with joy, not because he went out to eat, but because he no longer had to do homework. His family had never eaten anything, and the most annoying thing was the endless homework.

Similar to this, there are Cheng Kui, Huo Rui, Zhou Shuangxi, Liu Dachun and Doubiang. These people basically followed Li Weidong when he went to Northeast China to do border trade, or were related.

Although they are now rich and have different affairs, they are still in the same spirit.

They originally planned to get together at the Four Seasons Hotel tonight to exchange information.

I just didn't expect to get into a car accident with Li Weidong. We had already made an appointment, so naturally we still had to go, but we couldn't make it very formal. It was okay to form cliques, but not blatantly.

The nature is different when you bring your wife and children. This is a family dinner for friends.

Chen Gu walked out of the study, and his daughter-in-law Gong Lianping was watching TV with great interest. What was playing on the TV was an extremely popular story about two princesses!

Because of this TV series, Xia Yuhe by Daming Lake became very popular, and many people came to see Xia Yuhe. Daming Lake next to it really took this opportunity to become popular, and its ticket revenue hit a record high, which made the management very happy.

"Okay, I've watched this several times. It's endless and I'm not tired of it. It's all a mess!" Chen Gu said as he sat on a single sofa.

"How beautiful. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense!" Gong Lianping was very dissatisfied with Chen Guyu.

Chen Gu wanted to correct his daughter-in-law's view of history and let her know that it was impossible for a woman favored by the emperor to live in exile.

If Xia Yuhe is really left here without asking anything, there must be a prairie above his head. The emperor has touched it. Who wouldn't want to touch it with the dragon's energy.

But after thinking about it, forget it. Only by treating unofficial history as official history can it be interesting. Otherwise, just watch Twenty-Four Histories. What TV series do you want?

After a while, the episode ended. Looking at the final credits of the TV series, Chen Gu couldn't say anything more.

The producer is Guangying Entertainment. What else can he say? He can't slap his brother company in the face. This is not giving face to the boss. Such a thing must not be done!

Light and Shadow Entertainment has been in the limelight in recent years. It has produced many popular movies and TV series, making a lot of money and becoming famous for countless artists.

Luo Jialiang, the general manager of Guangying Entertainment, is therefore vaguely known as the godfather of the entertainment industry. As long as he is an artist who is valued by Guangying Entertainment, there are few who are not popular.

Moreover, Guangying Entertainment has a lot of money. They never look at the quantity of the artists they sign, but only sign them if the quality is right. This has turned the entertainment industry upside down and made many people hate it.

This popular TV series is a phenomenal TV series launched by Light and Shadow Entertainment. It uses many new actors, but the effect is excellent.

This is where Light and Shadow Entertainment plays tricks, there is always a suitable script matching the right people.

"Come out for dinner with me tonight. You should dress up a little first. Don't be too formal, don't be too casual!" Chen Gu said softly to his wife.

"Who else is so formal?" Gong Lianping asked in surprise. Chen Gu usually did not let her get involved in business matters and rarely brought her to formal banquets.

"No one, Da Kui Horui and the others, should go to the Four Seasons Hotel as a gathering between a few brothers!"

Gong Lianping looked at Chen Gu with obvious disbelief. If these people had no need to care about how she dressed, they must have something to hide.

She has known Chen Gu for more than ten years. She knows all these people and is very familiar with them. In the past few years, they often ate and drank at her house.

In front of them, Gong Lianping was the elder sister-in-law, so she still had some respect and did not need to be so formal.

"Maybe the chairman and his family are also dining at the Four Seasons Hotel today!" Chen Gu looked at his wife and continued, otherwise he would definitely not give up.

"Are you afraid that I will steal the spotlight from the chairman's family?" After hearing this, Gong Lianping understood what was going on, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"You don't look like a prince even if you wear a yellow robe. Whose limelight are you trying to steal?" Chen Gu said disdainfully.

Her daughter-in-law is a rich lady, and Liu Jinhui is the general manager of an international accounting firm. He is not a person of the same level at all. He is worried that his wife will dress up too much and be embarrassed.

"Get out of here!" Gong Lianping picked up the pillow in her hand and threw it on Chen Gu's head.

It's less than six o'clock in the evening, it's already dark in Qizhou, and the Four Seasons Hotel is packed with people. As one of the most luxurious hotels in Qizhou, this is the case every night.

Although you don't need to reserve a seat a week in advance, you can get a seat during the peak period, which is definitely not an ordinary person.

From time to time, there are people who are courteous to each other coming in at the hotel door. The waiters at the door are always able to appear in front of the guests in a timely manner and guide the guests to enter.

There were a few people standing in an unnoticed corner of the hotel lobby, talking quietly and staring at the door outside the glass window from time to time.

"Are the rooms arranged?" This is the third time Guo Huai has asked this question.

"Don't worry, it's been arranged. I'll check it in person. There won't be any problems!" Manager Zhu whispered back from the side, not daring to show any impatience.

"Well, that's good!" Guo Huai said absently.

At this moment, several cars drove into the gate of the Four Seasons Hotel.

"Coming!" Chen Lu reminded.

Guo Huai had also seen it and started to take action. He straightened his clothes a little and walked quickly to the door with a smile on his face.

The first car also happened to drive to the entrance of the hotel lobby. Guo Huai came out just in time and could open the car door with his hand.

"Uncle Li, welcome!" Guo Huai opened the back seat door and found Li Chengwen sitting there, but the smile on his face did not change and he greeted him affectionately.

Li Chengwen knew Guo Huai. He had lived in Li Weidong's house for so long and basically knew everyone he should know.

"Xiao Guo!" Li Chengwen stepped out of the car steadily, nodded to Guo Huai and said, God's airs are very full.

Many people got out of several cars one after another, and Guo Huai and Chen Lu greeted each other one by one.

"Hurry in, the door is blocked!" Li Weidong urged as he saw so many people standing here making a fuss.

The hotel's revolving door stopped rotating, the middle door opened, and a group of people entered the hotel lobby.

Li Weidong looked at the people around him and felt awkward, "Go and do your business, we are just here to have a meal and arrange a waiter!"

Several people looked at Li Weidong and then at Guo Huai, asking him to make up his mind on this matter.

"Okay, brother!" Guo Huai knew Li Weidong's temper and said quickly. He also glanced at the two waiters next to him, who were specially selected.

Moreover, the purpose of Guo Huai's appearance has been achieved. The boss's family is here to have a meal, not to inspect the work. It is not necessary for him to accompany him throughout the whole process. It is enough to greet him at the door.

Although it is not an inspection, the boss is here and he must provide good service. As the general manager, he is here to greet the guests, so it is okay for the lobby manager to be the waiter.

The waiter guided the group of people upstairs and into a huge box. As soon as Li Chengwen entered the box, his heart began to tremble, and he felt that his wallet was not thick anymore.

This kind of private room usually has a potential minimum consumption level. Although it is a hotel where my son is a shareholder, it is public and private, so you have to pay for it.

Moreover, he was bragging, so he had to cash it in. If the money was not enough in the end, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face to ask his son to waive the bill?

Li Chengwen went straight to the main seat and wanted Shen Yueying to sit in the assistant seat, but he got a blank look in return. Shen Yueying obviously would not cooperate.

The rest of the people acted as if they didn't hear or see it, and each found a seat to sit down. They were all members of their own family and didn't pay much attention to it, not to mention there were so many children.

On the table, a menu has been placed at everyone's place. The beautiful pictures are well done. After Li Chengwen looked through it, he felt a little discouraged. This meal was going to bleed.

"Let the red wine be sober for us first, thank you!" Li Weihong said, pointing to the red wine that had already been taken by the waiter.

"How many abalones do you have? One for each person. I want wild ones!" Li Weihong casually opened the menu, and the first thing he saw was a picture of abalone.

"And this Australia..." Li Weihong wanted to say something else, but Li Chengwen stopped.

"I don't want the abalone child!" Li Chengwen interrupted his youngest daughter.

"Grandpa, I want to eat Australian lobster!" Li Rui said crisply next to Li Weihong, completing what Li Weihong had not finished.

Everyone laughed after hearing this, and the waiter wanted to laugh too, but remembered the leader's instructions and quickly held it back.

"My eldest niece still understands me!" Li Weihong smiled and pinched Li Rui's face.

"Okay, let's eat the Australian lobster!" Li Chengwen knew that this thing was expensive, but who would let the child like it!

Li Ruiti's request was met, and the other children naturally followed suit and ordered several expensive dishes in succession. The recipes with pictures and texts were indeed easy to use.

Li Chengwen flipped through the menu and compared the dishes ordered by several children. The more he flipped through, the more he felt that he could not live up to his boast, so he gave up and followed the crowd and ordered a few that he had never tried.

After all, they are all his children. It is not a shame, but it is also a shame for his children. Li Chengwen felt uncomfortable thinking about it.

As soon as the dishes were ordered, a few appetizers were served, and the family gathered around the table and began to chat.

Li Weihong and Li Weihua were next to each other, chatting affectionately as sisters. Suddenly, they heard Li Weihua's voice rise a little higher, "You quit your job, what do you want to do if you don't work?"

Li Weihua showed a surprised expression. She became increasingly confused about the sister she had grown up with, why she didn't have any stability at all. It was said that she was already past the age of rebellion.

Shen Yueying's position was not far from Li Weihua, and she found out that Li Weihong had even quit his job. This simply added fuel to the fire, and said angrily, "You said you are a big boss, so it's okay not to get married. Why did you even quit your job?" If there is no suitable one, ask your elder brother to find one for you?"

"Mom, I didn't say that I don't want to work anymore. I just want to take advantage of my free time while changing jobs to look around!" Li Weihong said nonchalantly.

"It's okay to look around and gain some knowledge, which will be good for future work, but you, a single dog, will become a stray dog!" Li Weidong agreed with the idea of ​​looking around.
