Chapter 320: The Light Chaser About to Take Off
"Baidu Maps reminds you that the road ahead is narrow and slippery, so slow down in advance."
"There is an undercurrent ahead, and there is a risk of spillover. It is recommended to turn on the lights and drive carefully."
"The speed limit ahead is 80, and the current speed is 100. You are speeding, please slow down."
It is common to drive on the highway with my secretary.
It is impossible to slow down. Even if you will be deducted points and fined, you have to maintain high-speed driving. First use the manual transmission to improve the driving experience, then enable the automatic transmission energy-saving mode, then switch to the comfort mode, and finally the sports mode.
The silk quilt was soaked with sweat.
Chen Jianghe looked down at Lin Siqi, whose cheeks were flushed and shoulders were trembling. He couldn't help but put his hand through the back of her neck and hugged her tightly.
Lin Siqi took a long break , then gently tapped Chen Jianghe's chest with his fingers, his eyes full of affection and tenderness: "How about sleeping like this tonight?"
"Can you fall asleep like this?" Chen Jianghe kissed her rosy cheek which was completely wet with sweat.
"Sure." Lin Siqi rubbed him like a kitten, hugged his waist with both hands, and said tenderly: "Don't leave me."
Chen Jianghe smiled. He actually liked this kind of close-distance hug, but could he really fall asleep while being hugged like this?
"We didn't wear seat belts when we drove on the highway just now." said Chen Jianghe.
Lin Siqi looked at him with curved eyebrows and said, "I won't wear it again in the future."
Chen Jianghe bit her blushing cheek and said, "Driving dangerously can easily lead to accidents."
"I'll support you if there's an accident."
Lin Siqi picked up a strand of hair and playfully scratched Chen Jianghe's shoulder, whispering softly: "I will be responsible for you, boss~"
"Silly girl." Chen Jianghe said with a smile: "Do you want to move me to death and inherit the debts of Light Chaser and Homesick?"
"Oh~ How scary." Lin Siqi shook his head, and his white, tender and delicate feet quietly arched.
Chen Jianghe blinked: "What do you want to do now?"
"think."
… …
This year's New Year, Chen Jianghe was much busier than last year. After leaving Shenzhen, he returned to Dongguan and accompanied Teacher Xu back to his hometown of Wuyuan.
This trip went surprisingly smoothly, and the treatment at his "mother-in-law" house was much better than the first time he visited. If the company's New Year mobilization meeting had not been scheduled for the eighth day of the first lunar month, Chen Jianghe would definitely have stayed a few more days.
"Go slowly on the road and be safe."
Before leaving, Xu Zhixi personally tied a scarf on Chen Jianghe and carefully helped him tidy up his collar.
"Every time I come here, I leave early. Will you be angry?" Chen Jianghe asked.
"No." Xu Zhixi's eyes sparkled, and she smiled and said, "I'm already very happy that you can accompany me home."
"Then I'm leaving. Don't miss me too much."
Chen Jianghe turned and walked towards the car, waving goodbye.
"Chen Jianghe."
As soon as he opened the car door, Xu Zhixi came running up to him again.
"Is there anything else you want to explain?" Chen Jianghe asked with a smile.
"No more." Xu Zhixi shook her head, but reached out and held Chen Jianghe's hand.
Chen Jianghe suddenly realized: "Want to give me a parting hug?"
"Yes." Xu Zhixi stretched out her hands, stood on tiptoe and whispered softly in his ear: "If you make a mistake in the future, remember to confess and don't lie to me blatantly, understand?"
"Hmm?" Chen Jianghe raised his eyebrows.
"Go back. When I don't miss you, you should also remember to miss me."
Xu Zhixi just hugged him lightly and then let go, helping him hold the car door.
"Okay."
Chen Jianghe sat in the driver's seat, looked at her deeply, slowly started the car and drove away.
The eighth day of the first lunar month.
In the meeting room of the Light Chasers base, the top managers of Homesick Real Estate Agency in suits and ties and the leaders of the Light Chasers City Corps in work clothes gathered together, yet they were clearly separated.
Ye Xiaorong, the executive partner of Xiangjia, and Qin Tianping, the president of the East China region of Zhuiguangzhe, are the two most beautiful scenery in the conference room.
When Chen Jianghe entered the room, he was followed by four people, two men and two women, namely Deng Yongqing, Sun Haolin and Zhao Xiangning, as well as Lin Siqi, a secretary holding a folder.
As soon as he entered the room, everyone in the conference room stood up to greet him.
"Everyone, please sit down." Chen Jianghe said calmly, turning to Mr. Deng and others, "You guys should also find a place to sit."
Deng Yongqing and the other two looked at each other and found that seats had already been reserved for them in the conference room, so they went over and sat down.
"I called everyone to the meeting today for three main things."
Chen Jianghe always does this when holding meetings. He first makes clear what he wants to say and then leaves time for everyone to discuss.
Lin Siqi was responsible for taking notes.
"First, the takeaway group-buying market in the Yangtze River Delta region is currently in the critical stage. We are developing very fast and making great progress, but overall, we only account for less than 20% of the market share, and there is still a huge gap with our main competitors. We must face up to the gap and catch up."
Chen Jianghe looked at Qin Tianping and said, "Next, the company will invest more resources to seize the Yangtze River Delta market."
Tan Tianping smiled and nodded.
"The second thing is that this year we, the light chasers, need to take bigger steps and open stations in major provincial capital cities across the country as soon as possible, taking the big cities as the center and moving towards the surrounding cities."
Chen Jianghe continued.
"Third, we need to speed up the A round of financing for Xiangjia and the expansion of directly-operated stores. The goal for the first quarter of this year is to open 100 stores in four cities: Beijing, Shanghai, eastern Guangdong, and Shenzhen."
"Ye Xiaorong."
Chen Jianghe called the name.
Ye Xiaorong raised her head and looked at Mr. Chen with shining eyes.
"You must be prepared for the business trip. I will leave you with the full responsibility for the store location selection, leasing, store manager appointment, etc." Chen Jianghe said.
"Okay." Ye Xiaorong nodded and agreed.
"Finally..." Chen Jianghe suddenly stood up and looked at Deng Yongqing, Sun Haolin and Zhao Xiangning respectively.
The three of them felt Chen Jianghe's gaze and felt a little nervous for some reason.
"Applause to welcome Comrade Deng, Comrade Sun and Supervisor Zhao to join our Light Chasers Corps."
Chen Jianghe led the applause.
Others quickly followed suit, and for a moment the conference room burst into thunderous applause.
Deng Yongqing's new position is deputy general manager of Light Chaser, Sun Haolin is responsible for business development in the three provincial capital cities of Wuhan, Changsha and Nanchang, and Zhao Xiangning becomes the first market supervisor of Light Chaser. She will form a new team and standardize business expansion and food delivery service standards in major cities for the company.
"Next is the free discussion time. If you have anything to say, you can speak freely."
After finishing the business, Chen Jianghe was no longer as serious as before, and a casual smile appeared on his face.
"Mr. Chen, for Xiangjia's Series A financing, have you considered introducing state-owned capital?" asked the company's CFO Gu Yuming with a smile.
Chen Jianghe looked at the fatigue that was hard to conceal between Gu Yuming's eyebrows, and felt a little guilty. He smiled and said, "According to the plan, Xiangjia will most likely go public in the United States in the future, and the introduction of state-owned capital will easily become a hindrance."
"I think so too." Gu Yuming pushed his glasses and said, " I contacted Mr. Zhang from Gaoling Capital some time ago. He highly approves of Xiangjia's direct-operated development model and is interested in participating in the investment."
"However, Mr. Zhang hopes that you can take the time to go to Beijing to meet him." Gu Yuming continued.
