Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 594 Meeting

On July 3rd, the weather was clear and cloudless, the sun was high in the sky at eight o'clock, and the heat wave in the air was already beginning to surge.

Li Weidong stood in front of the mirror, neatly dressed, and Liu Jinhui was tying his tie.

"Why are you wearing this thing? It's hot and uncomfortable on a hot day?" Li Weidong said slightly dissatisfied. Wearing leather shoes, a suit and a shirt is formal enough, but a tie is too grand.

"What do you know? You have to wear a tie when wearing a suit. This is not only etiquette, but also beautiful and elegant. More importantly, it gives people a solemn and steady feeling!" Liu Jinhui patted Li Weidong's erratic hand.

"If you say that, I have to explain to you how the tie came about!" Li Weidong said unhappily upon hearing this.

"Do you know what the tie was originally designed for?" Li Weidong asked first.

"What else can it be used to wipe your mouth with?" Liu Jinhui said disdainfully while tying her tie.

Li Weidong was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked down at Liu Jinhui in front of him. Did he really know or was he deceived?

"Tell me?" Liu Jinhui tied her tie, looked up at Li Weidong, and found that he was looking down at her.

Liu Jinhui followed his gaze and found that Li Weidong was staring at her collar, his eyes already piercing into it.

"What are you looking at?" Liu Jinhui said angrily.

"Ah, I didn't see anything!" Li Weidong couldn't help but hold Liu Jinhui's waist and continued: "How do you know that the leader originally used it to wipe his mouth?"

"How do I know? It's just a guess!" Liu Jinhui said casually.

"The tie was originally designed to make it easier to wipe your mouth after eating. In fact, it was the saliva towel our children used when they were young, so it has nothing to do with solemnity and composure!"

"You don't need to spread this knowledge to me, just wear it honestly on such an important occasion!"

Liu Jinhui looked at Li Weidong's clothes and said, "Take a turn and let me see!"

"I'm so handsome and have such a good figure. I'm just like a living clothes rack. I look good no matter what I wear!" Li Weidong said and still turned around.

Regular exercise has made Li Weidong's body look well-proportioned, although he has no obvious muscle mass, but also no fat. In addition, the clothes are tailor-made according to his figure, so they will naturally look very decent on him.

"Well, not bad, I have a good figure and good clothes!" Liu Jinhui nodded with satisfaction, "That's it, it's almost one o'clock, let's go quickly!"

"Don't worry, it's only ten minutes away and you won't be late!" Li Weidong smoothed his hair and looked at the handsome guy in the mirror. He was very satisfied. With such good looks, he didn't need a stylist at all.

"It's better to be early than late!" Liu Jinhui said. Today is an unusual day. Even if Li Weidong is the boss of the company, being late is not good.

Li Weidong nodded in agreement: "You are the leader, I listen to you!"

"Virtue!" Liu Jinhui rolled her eyes at Li Weidong, but the smile on her face revealed the happiness in her heart. If such a life is not happy, then she is a little unsatisfied.

Li Weidong took his bag and walked out of the house. Chen Jun was already waiting outside, looking at his watch and looking at the door from time to time.

This was the first time he had attended such an important meeting since he became a secretary. Although there was almost nothing important for him to do in the whole meeting, it still made him excited.

He was so excited that he couldn't sleep. When he finally fell asleep, the alarm clock woke him up again. Even though he hadn't slept much all night, he still didn't feel sleepy at all.

Seeing Li Weidong coming out, he quickly opened the car door, greeted him, took the bag from Li Weidong's hand, and greeted: "Good morning, Chairman!"

Li Weidong nodded in response, and before getting on the bus, he looked back at Liu Jinhui who was walking out of the door, and waved to her to get on the bus.

After Chen Jun closed the car door for Li Weidong, he first turned to Liu Jinhui and bowed slightly to say "goodbye" before getting into the passenger seat, closing the car door and leaving.

Several cars nearby followed him out of this quiet alley.

Chen Jun glanced at his watch and it was already eight twenty, and thought to himself that it would take fifteen minutes to get to the Four Seasons Hotel without traffic jams.

The meeting starts at nine o'clock, and they still have twenty-five minutes. During this time, Li Weidong can have a brief exchange with the company's senior management and become familiar with the meeting procedures.

Of course, he would not be idle on the way to the hotel. Chen Jun needed to briefly repeat the meeting process and arrangements to his boss.

"Chairman, according to the meeting schedule, the meeting will officially start at nine o'clock. First, you will introduce the company's new leadership and reform plan!"

…

"Okay, I know all this, and the meeting agenda is also there, so don't repeat it again, relax a little, don't be so nervous!" Li Weidong waved his hand and said.

"I made you laugh!" Chen Jun scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

My determination is still a bit lacking. This is the boss's home court. What is the schedule or not? These are the requirements for the participants. For the boss, you can do whatever you want.

Although it was the rush hour for work, there were not many cars on Li Weidong's route, and there were almost no red lights. He arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel smoothly, which made people think more about whether there is such a thing as privileges.

The venue for their meeting this time is still at the Four Seasons Hotel. This is also the limit of the Four Seasons Hotel. If there are more people, even if they add more seats, they will not be able to accommodate them.

When Li Weidong arrived, the general managers of each subsidiary had already entered, and only the company's senior leaders were waiting at the entrance of the hall.

Xu Dehai and Zou Yi stood at the front of the crowd, one on the left and the other on the right. Zheng Sijing, Xia Guoqiang, several newly appointed deputy general managers, and several general managers of the business units stood behind them.

This is the top leadership force of the company. These people are the direct executors and supervisors of Li Weidong's decisions and are the core of the company.

Li Weidong looked at these people, including men and women, old and young, but all of them were in high spirits and served as senior executives in a world-class company. This was probably the thing they were most proud of.

"Yes, looking at everyone's high spirits, I know that my life will be much easier in the future!" Li Weidong got out of the car and joked with a smile to the crowd.

"Let's row an oar. We can barely do some hard work. The chairman has to steer the direction!" Zou Yi took the lead in saying modestly and resolutely.

She is the managing director of the company. Although Xu Haidong is the chairman of the board of supervisors, he has more supervisory and auditing powers. However, the actual power of the company's management is less than that of one person and more than ten thousand people.

Others also echoed in praising Li Weidong's wisdom and martial arts, and their enthusiasm made Li Weidong almost believe it.

Li Weidong and several senior executives walked to the hotel while chatting. Before the meeting officially started, they could rest in the lounge next to them and have a small meeting to communicate.

Moreover, there are several national treasure-level experts in the lounge, all of whom are authorities in relevant industries. Some of these people are independent directors invited by Li Weidong, and some are expert consultants on the advisory committee.

Although these people do not belong to the company's organization, their social status must be given enough respect by Li Weidong, and they must be arranged to sit on the rostrum during meetings.

At this time, the auditorium located on the second and third floors of the hotel had more than a thousand seats occupied, and judging by the appearance of the seats, there were even temporary additions.

According to the original design and decoration, the total number of people in this auditorium was 1,500, but the number of people attending the meeting this time was more than 1,600.

The administrative department responsible for arranging the meeting had originally planned to find the Handong Auditorium, but after Guo Huai, the chairman of the Four Seasons Hotel, found out, he insisted that the meeting be held here. How could his own meeting be held elsewhere?

The administration department couldn't resist, so they had to temporarily agree to their plan to temporarily increase seats. Fortunately, the hotel was quite capable, and it was able to accommodate more than 1,600 people.

The first few rows in the conference room are basically the general managers of each subsidiary, and the other vice presidents are in sequence behind them. There are also many foreign faces looming in the middle.

There are more than a dozen seats on the rostrum with name tags placed one after another. At this time, they are still empty, and the leader has not yet appeared.

Among the people sitting in the audience, the leaders in the front rows looked at the rostrum, feeling somewhat uncomfortable and whispering among themselves.

But if they are asked to give up their current position and sit on it, they will feel a little hesitant and would rather have a chicken head than a phoenix tail. This is a strange disease.

According to the industry classification, several companies engaged in real estate development services were sitting together. Chen Gu and Ma Jun were sitting next to each other. Next to them was Liu Dachun, who was selling houses. Several people were whispering, and only a few of them could speak in low voices.

hear.

"Old Chen, I heard that there was something wrong with your project in Xijing?" Ma Jun asked softly.

"You also know?" Chen Gu sighed without much curiosity: "That's right, there are no secrets in our circle!"

"The place in Xijing is in conflict with me. It's really weird. Two fucking ancient tombs were discovered at a construction site. The last one was from the Tang Dynasty, which was better, but this time it's from the Han Dynasty!"

"It is said that it is the tomb of some prince. What kind of world is this? The dead are blocking the way of the living. I even made a trip myself for this matter, and it is still there!"

Chen Gu had an idea and asked: "You have many acquaintances in the capital. Do you have such a relationship? I think this matter needs to be dealt with from top to bottom?"

He also contacted many departments in Xijing, but these departments had seen this kind of thing a lot, and they had already developed a familiar way of dealing with it, which made him lose his temper at all. Who dares to say no to protecting national treasure-level cultural relics?

Ma Jun glanced at Chen Gu and said meaningfully: "We are just ordinary people, how can we have such a relationship, but I think you are riding a donkey to find a donkey!"

"You mean to find the chairman?" Chen Gu said hesitantly, and then shook his head without waiting for Ma Jun's answer: "No, how can the chairman have the time to take care of this matter?"

With Li Weidong's ability, he would definitely be able to find it if he wanted to find the relevant departments, but the cost would be too high. Finding people is a favor, and if you have a favor, you have to return it. It is not a trivial matter for Li Weidong to return the favor.

"How big of a problem is this? You still need the chairman to come forward. Don't we have leaders in charge? They are all old acquaintances. If you go to him, we will definitely be able to solve it!" Ma Jun replied calmly.

The leaders in charge naturally have to deal with things that cannot be handled by the subordinates. If you have any difficulties, go to the leader!

If everything is done by subordinates, it will be too easy for the leader!

"..." Chen Gu glanced at Ma Jun and said nothing. He naturally understood the meaning of Ma Jun's voice, but there was nothing wrong with his words. Leaders are used to solve problems, otherwise why would you be the leader.

Moreover, the person currently recruited by Li Weidong to be the general manager of the real estate division is the former secretary-general of the China Real Estate Industry Association, and is an acquaintance of Chen Gu and Majun.

Being the secretary-general is responsible for the daily work of the association, and he will definitely have relationships with relevant departments. Naturally, he has this ability. This is what Li Weidong likes about him.

The qualifications for the general managers of these business units are that they not only have relevant professional knowledge, but also have certain status and connections in the industry.

However, it seemed a bit inappropriate to give someone a slap on the wrist as soon as he took office, and it was too obvious. Chen Gu is a veteran, so he naturally understands this truth.

However, I also understood Ma Jun’s rejection of this business unit from the side.

Chen Gu turned his head and looked at the people around him. Although they were all well hidden, the light in his eyes turned to the podium from time to time, as if they were hiding something!

It seems that there are many people who have the same idea as Ma Jun, and there is great resistance to reform.

While Chen Gu was muttering, the speaker in the conference room was knocked several times, and then the door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside, and Li Weidong walked in first.

I don’t know who took the lead, but everyone in the conference room stood up and started applauding.

Li Weidong walked to his seat and pressed his hand to signal everyone to stop. Several other company executives also walked to his seat.

"Good morning, colleagues. Welcome to this mid-year meeting. Please take a seat!" Li Weidong greeted everyone with a smile.

There was a burst of applause from below, but no one sat down. After Li Weidong sat down, the others followed suit.

Li Weidong said casually: "The purpose of calling everyone here today is to have a meeting. Everyone has seen the schedule and there are many things. Let's not talk too much and let's start now!"

Applause broke out in response!

"As everyone knows, since the last annual meeting, the company has carried out a series of reforms including system reform, organizational reform, salary reform, corporate culture education, management information system upgrades, etc.!"

"These reforms lay the foundation for the company to move towards a modern enterprise. I can tell you responsibly that this is what we must and should do at present, and it will not be changed by someone's will!"

Li Weidong's decisive opening remarks made everyone on the stage and off the stage slightly distracted, and their hearts skipped a beat.

"In order to carry out the reform smoothly, the company has hired a group of proven talents and formed a high-quality and high-level corporate management team!"

"You already know some old colleagues, and you may not be familiar with some new colleagues. Now I will introduce these old and new colleagues to you!" Li Weidong continued.
