Volume 7: Mr. Love, Elite Lawyer, and Two Conjectures about Marriage Chapter 521 Shen Mingbao's mother got into trouble
Two days later, in the office of Huisi Company's president Zhao Songwen, Yuan Xudong, Zhao Songwen, Zhong Qiming, and the newly hired Yang Zheng gathered together to hold a meeting to discuss Huisi Company's Rongwenbao project. Zhao Songwen was mainly speaking, while Yuan Xudong and others were responsible for putting forward their own opinions.
Zhao Songwen was holding an investment plan for Rongwenbao in his hand, and he said confidently:
"Reduce Rongwenbao's rate of return to below seven, and then cooperate with Tengfei Capital to establish a quantitative trading subsidiary..."
After Zhao Songwen finished talking about Huisi Company's strategic plan for the next period of time, Zhong Qiming disagreed and said:
"If Rongwenbao's rate of return is reduced to less than 7%, it will not attract new customers, and many old customers will be lost."
After listening to Zhong Qiming, Zhao Songwen couldn't help but shook his head slightly and said confidently:
"You don't understand the psychology of new middle-class customers. Being more prudent and using rational investment as a slogan will only attract more customers."
Yuan Xudong, Zhong Qiming, and Yang Zheng were all sitting on the sofa in the lounge area. Zhao Songwen put the investment plan for Rongwenbao in her hand on the coffee table in front of them. She put her hands in her trouser pockets and said confidently:
"Delete the risk warning. Chinese people only want to make a profit without loss in financial management. They must not lose any principal or interest..."
Hearing Zhao Songwen's radical approach, which even had the intention of deceiving customers, Yang Zheng couldn't help but retort:
"Mr. Zhao, I think this risk warning should still be retained, just like the friendly reminder that smoking is harmful to health. It cannot be omitted!"
"What you said makes sense!"
Zhao Songwen thought for a moment and said:
"Then make the font smaller, adjust it to the smallest font, and put it in the least noticeable place on the webpage. You are the programmer, so you are responsible for this aspect of the work. Any other questions?"
"No, please continue."
"Okay, I'll continue."
After taking a look at Yang Zheng, Zhao Songwen continued:
"At the press conference, we must ensure that we invite the most famous economics expert to write a recommendation article for Rong Wen Bao. It would be best if he is a university professor with an official background. Once potential customers see that well-known economics experts and university professors recommend Rong Wen Bao, they will be subtly influenced and eventually choose our company for investment and financial management."
At this point, Zhao Songwen couldn't help but glance at Zhong Qiming. In Huisi Company, he and Yang Zheng were both vice presidents, but Yang Zheng was the vice president in charge of network technology, while Zhong Qiming was the vice president in charge of public opinion propaganda.
Seeing Zhao Songwen looking at him, Zhong Qiming said calmly:
“I’ll try my best.”
“It’s not about striving, it’s about having to!”
Zhao Songwen was not satisfied with Zhong Qiming's answer. After that, she glanced at Zhong Qiming, who looked calm, and continued:
"All articles published on public accounts and local TV stations must be reviewed by me. Oh, and new media advertising must also be promoted. The background of the listed company must be highlighted, and the product description must be more standardized and more resistant to risks."
At this point, Zhao Songwen glanced at Yang Zheng who was busy taking notes and said:
"Oh, by the way, let CEO Yang speak on behalf of the company at this press conference!"
"I?"
Suddenly hearing that Zhao Songwen had arranged for him to speak on behalf of the company at this press conference, Yang Zheng couldn't help but glance at Zhong Qiming, who had always been in charge of the company's publicity work, and looked at Zhao Songwen hesitantly and said:
"Isn't this inappropriate?"
Without waiting for Zhao Songwen to respond, Zhong Qiming stood up from the sofa. He first glanced at Yang Zheng, then looked at Zhao Songwen and said with a smile:
"Boss Yang is a technician, shouldn't he..."
Before Zhong Qiming could finish his words, Zhao Songwen interrupted him and said:
"We need a mature and reliable dad, not a shrewd and outspoken businessman. You should understand this, right?"
Zhong Qiming naturally understood what Zhao Songwen said. He could only force a smile and sat down again. Although Zhong Qiming had a smiling face the whole time, Zhao Songwen, Yuan Xudong, and Yang Zheng who was pushed to the front of the stage by Zhao Songwen could all see the unwillingness and anger in his heart from his extremely ugly smile. From this point of view, Zhong Qiming was still not smart and experienced enough. He was dissatisfied in his heart. Although he knew how to use a smile to hide his true emotions, this smile was too fake and not enough.
After discussing the details for a while, before the meeting was about to end, Zhao Songwen looked at Yuan Xudong, who had not expressed his opinion, and asked:
"Mr. Yuan, do you have anything else to add?"
"Me?"
Looking up at Zhao Songwen, Yuan Xudong thought for a moment and said:
"Can we let Zhirui Tianjie do our company's advertising work?"
"Zhirui Tianjie Company?"
After looking at Yuan Xudong, Zhao Songwen asked with some curiosity:
"Is this the advertising company you run?"
"It should be Xue Kexin's, right?"
Without waiting for Yuan Xudong to respond, Zhong Qiming next to him said something very affirmative in a questioning tone. When they heard Xue Kexin's name, Zhao Songwen and Yang Zheng's faces became a little unnatural. Zhao Songwen's face suddenly changed because Yuan Xudong was Xue Kexin's boyfriend, and she had a close relationship with Yuan Xudong. In addition, the big money man behind Huisi Company was Xue Kexin's father Xue Guixiang. In short, her feelings towards Xue Kexin were quite complicated, even though she and Xue Kexin were not very familiar with each other.
Yang Zheng was in a similar situation. Xue Kexin was the best friend of his ex-wife Shen Mingbao. When he heard the name Xue Kexin, he couldn't help but think of his ex-wife Shen Mingbao. After several months of difficult life, he fully realized his mistakes and wanted to win back Shen Mingbao. However, when he learned from Yang Manman that Shen Mingbao was pregnant, he let go of the past and didn't want to disturb her anymore. It was a pity that he didn't ask Yang Manman about it clearly at the beginning, otherwise he would know that the man was far away and right in front of him, and it was Yuan Xudong who cheated on him.
Knowing that Zhirui Tianjie Company was opened by Xue Kexin, Zhao Songwen couldn't help but say angrily:
"Mr. Zhong is in charge of the company's publicity work. You can discuss it with him. If everything is fine, then we can adjourn the meeting?"
"The meeting is adjourned!"
…
After the meeting, Zhong Qiming and Yang Zheng walked out of the office. After watching them leave, Yuan Xudong closed the office door from the inside. He walked to Zhao Songwen's side, reached out from behind to hug her, held her in his arms and smiled:
"What's wrong with you? Are you jealous of Xue Kexin?"
"Who's jealous?"
Turning his head and rolling his eyes at Yuan Xudong, Zhao Songwen pouted slightly and said angrily:
"Why are you so mean?"
"If I'm not bad, how can I get you?"
As Yuan Xudong spoke, he caressed Zhao Songwen's body vigorously, kissed her fair and delicate neck greedily, and said:
"You've handed the press conference over to Yang Zhenglai. Are you planning to abandon Zhong Qiming?"
"No, it's just that his shrewd and outgoing image is not suitable for the company's needs. On the contrary, Yang Zheng's daddy face is quite approachable..."
As Zhao Songwen spoke, she slightly closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, and soon she began to hum intermittently:
“Hmm… Hmm…”
Zhao Songwen's hum was the best encouragement for Yuan Xudong. He couldn't help but hold Zhao Songwen in his arms and walked to the rest area. He pressed her on the sofa, took off her belt, and loosened her shirt. Zhao Songwen's fair and round shoulders were immediately exposed to Yuan Xudong's eyes...
Just when Yuan Xudong was busy pampering Zhao Songwen, Zhong Qiming separated from Yang Zheng after coming out of Zhao Songwen's office. When he thought that Zhao Songwen not only arranged the position of vice president for Yang Zheng, but also let him replace his identity as the spokesperson for the press conference, Zhong Qiming became more and more angry. He felt that Zhao Songwen just wanted to destroy the bridge after crossing it. He was not a generous person and liked to calculate others. Since he felt the crisis from Zhao Songwen, he naturally would not sit idly by and wait for death. All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he left Huisi Company directly and hurried to the Xue family.
…
Xue family, living room.
"Reduce Rongwenbao's rate of return to below seven, and then cooperate with Tengfei Capital to establish a quantitative trading subsidiary..."
"If Rongwenbao's rate of return is reduced to less than 7%, it will not attract new customers, and many old customers will be lost."
"You don't understand the psychology of the new middle-class customers. Be more cautious and use rational investment as a slogan, which will only attract more customers..."
"Delete the risk warning. Chinese people only want to make a profit without loss in financial management. They must not lose any principal or interest..."
"Mr. Zhao, I think this risk warning should still be retained, just like the friendly reminder that smoking is harmful to health. It cannot be omitted!"
"What you said makes sense!"
"Then make the font smaller, adjust it to the smallest font, and put it in the least noticeable place on the webpage..."
…
After arriving at Xue's house, Zhong Qiming played a cell phone recording for Xue Guixiang, which was the content of the conversation in the previous meeting. Just like Zhao Songwen had said before, Zhong Qiming was a shrewd and outwardly shrewd person, but he was petty and liked to hide behind others to plot against them. He was always so unworthy of being in the upper class. After listening to the recording, there was no expression on Xue Guixiang's face, and he looked very calm the whole time. This made Zhong Qiming a little disappointed. Compared with Xue Guixiang, Zhong Qiming could only be regarded as a little fox who was not yet experienced enough.
Through this recording, although Zhao Songwen's methods are somewhat unconventional, it is not a bad idea to win by surprise. Compared with Zhao Songwen, Zhong Qiming's methods made Xue Guixiang look down on him by three points. Before, Xue Guixiang just didn't like Zhong Qiming very much, but he still recognized his abilities. However, Zhong Qiming's current behavior makes Xue Guixiang feel a little ashamed.
Before Zhao Songwen was about to establish Huisi, Zhong Qiming said many good things about Zhao Songwen. But now he is reporting her and secretly recording the meeting. This behavior is too petty and is despised by older generation businessmen like Xue Guixiang. Of course, even though he is somewhat despised by Zhong Qiming's behavior, Xue Guixiang still encourages him on the surface. If someone comes to him to be his lapdog and wants to please him, then just throw him two bones. He is not his own son, so there is no need to teach him how to be a human being.
Just like many leaders, when someone comes to him to report something, he will act as if he takes it very seriously and will encourage the reporter. This makes the reporter mistakenly believe that they are on the same side as the leader and that they are valued by the leader. Little do they know that most people don't like informers, especially those who do things secretly. Unfortunately, bystanders see more clearly than those involved. Zhong Qiming, who is in the middle of the situation, is still very complacent.
After listening to the recording, Xue Guixiang looked at Zhong Qiming and asked:
"Who was that man just now? The one who advised Zhao Songwen?"
"Yang Zheng, who works in technology, was also given the position of vice president by President Zhao."
Zhong Qiming answered, Xue Guixiang glanced at him and continued to ask:
"What do you think about this?"
Unable to tell whether Xue Guixiang was happy or angry, Zhong Qiming said in the middle:
"Although Ms. Zhao has worked in Wall Street for many years, she is more familiar with the domestic market..."
Xue Guixiang added:
"She not only understands the domestic market, but also understands human nature. I used to doubt Zhao Songwen's ability. I didn't believe that a young woman could have such a big appetite. But now, I am really afraid of her ambition."
"Ms. Zhao has been immersed in Wall Street for many years. To her, wealth is just a number. But don't worry, I will always stand by you."
Seeing that Xue Guixiang was somewhat afraid of Zhao Songwen, Zhong Qiming took the opportunity to express his loyalty. Xue Guixiang glanced at him and smiled :
"You have demonstrated this very well, young man, keep working hard. The future of the group depends on you!"
"Okay, I'll definitely try my best!"
After receiving Xue Guixiang's praise, Zhong Qiming took the opportunity to say:
"Actually, there is one more thing. I don't know whether I should mention it or not. It's about Ke Xin's new boyfriend Yuan Xudong."
"Yuan Xudong?"
Hearing Zhong Qiming mention Yuan Xudong, Xue Guixiang frowned slightly and said:
"What happened to him?"
After taking a look at Xue Guixiang's face and seeing that he was frowning slightly, Zhong Qiming didn't say anything. He just said in a vague way:
"I feel like the relationship between Yuan Xudong and Mr. Zhao seems to be very unusual, a bit like..."
After deliberately pausing for a while, Zhong Qiming gritted his teeth and said:
"It's a bit like a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. One of them is the president of Huisi Company, and the other is the executive director of Huisi Company sent by the group. Huisi Company is planning to cooperate with Tengfei Capital to establish a quantitative trading subsidiary, and Tengfei Capital is Yuan Xudong's company. They are united. Isn't this a bit too powerful? The most important thing is that this matter is related to Ke Xin's future happiness."
"Are you sure?"
Hearing Zhong Qiming say that Yuan Xudong and Zhao Songwen were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, Xue Guixiang couldn't help but frown. He felt that Zhong Qiming should not dare to spread rumors about such a thing, but if it was true, what about his daughter?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of his daughter Xue Kexin who was hiding behind the door. He originally wanted to let his daughter know about human nature, but he didn't expect Zhong Qiming to say such explosive news. At this time, Zhong Qiming affirmed:
"pretty close!"
"You go ahead and do your work. I want to be alone."
Xue Guixiang said to the guest, since the purpose of informing has been achieved, and seeing Xue Guixiang's frown, Zhong Qiming stood up and prepared to leave:
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
After bowing respectfully to Xue Guixiang, Zhong Qiming turned and left the Xue family. After watching him leave, Xue Guixiang shouted towards the small room in the living room:
"Come out, he's gone."
At this time, the door of the small room in the living room opened, and Xue Kexin walked out. She sat in front of Xue Guixiang, rolled her eyes and said:
"Why are you asking me to listen to this corner? What do you mean?"
"What do you think about this?"
"I'm showing you this recording of the meeting to show my goodwill. Anyway, I don't like people like Zhong Qiming. He's so shrewd!"
"Who said that? I mean Yuan Xudong. Zhong Qiming said that Yuan Xudong and Zhao Songwen were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I believe he wouldn't dare to lie to me about this. He must have been very sure before he came to tell me. What are you going to do?"
Xue Guixiang said anxiously, his only daughter was too much of a worry for him, her vision in finding a boyfriend was always so unreliable, and seeing that the topic was about Yuan Xudong, Xue Kexin quickly changed the subject and said:
"Okay, I'll investigate this matter myself, so just leave it alone."
"But……"
Seeing that her father wanted to say something, Xue Kexin quickly interrupted him and asked:
"By the way, can the promotion of Rongwenbao be entrusted to our Zhirui Tianjie?"
"this……"
Xue Guixiang thought for a moment and said:
"Your family can't do the promotion work of Rongwenbao, so you can split it with Zeliang."
"Okay, thank God for your grace. I'm leaving now. Bye!"
"Ke Xin!"
Xue Guixiang called out to his daughter Xue Kexin who was leaving and said:
"In fact, you are no worse than that Zhao Songwen!"
"She is she, I am me, there is no comparison, let's go!"
"Do you like Yuan Xudong?"
Looking at his daughter's free and easy back, Xue Guixiang couldn't help but ask, and when Xue Kexin heard this question, she couldn't help but pause for a moment, and she waved her hand without looking back:
"dislike!"
After getting his daughter's answer and watching her leaving, Xue Guixiang couldn't help but curse her in a low voice, "You rascal!" and then called Yuan Xudong with his cell phone.
…
At the same time, in Zhao Songwen's office at Huisi Company, a pleasant cell phone ringtone sounded. It was Yuan Xudong's cell phone. He picked up his ringing cell phone from the coffee table in front of him and took a look. The caller ID showed the five words "Xue Kexin's father". He reached out and held Zhao Songwen, who was still kneeling under him. While teaching her homework, he answered the phone and said casually:
"Uncle, why did you think of calling me? I have to let you know in advance that I haven't completed the task yet and I'm working hard!"
"Where are you now?"
"In the office."
"Come to my place right now, I'll be waiting for you at home!"
"Uncle, do you have any..."
Before Yuan Xudong could ask Xue Guixiang what he wanted to talk to him about, Xue Guixiang hung up the phone. Yuan Xudong had no choice but to throw the phone on the coffee table, and then suddenly sped up his homework, causing Zhao Songwen to hum in dissatisfaction...
At the same time, in the Rose Garden Villa, Shen Mingbao, who was pregnant, sat on the sofa in the living room. The quirky Yang Manman sat next to her. She was eating tomato-flavored potato chips and watching TV with a silly smile on her face. Opposite Shen Mingbao, Shen Mingbao's mother was dressed up. She sat on the sofa and looked at Shen Mingbao with a big belly and smiled:
"Mingbao, can mommy come and take care of you?"
"Don't come here, you can't wash clothes, you can't do housework, and you can't cook. Now that you are here, are you going to take care of me, or am I going to serve you?"
Seeing that the mother who used to like to live a free life by herself suddenly changed her mind and wanted to take care of her, Shen Mingbao couldn't help but narrow his eyes and asked suspiciously:
"Tell me, have you gotten into trouble again? Did you offend Mr. Zhang next door or Mr. Wang upstairs this time?"
"Hey, how can you talk about your own mother like that?"
Giving her daughter Shen Mingbao a cold look, Mother Shen glanced at Yang Manman who was smiling foolishly beside her and said:
"She can live here with you, then I am your mother, why can't I live in my son-in-law's house ?"
"I didn't say you can't live here. I just want to ask you, what kind of trouble have you gotten into?"
"Oh, I've already said that I didn't cause any trouble. My daughter is pregnant, and I feel sorry for her. How can I not take care of her?"
As Mother Shen spoke, she hugged Shen Mingbao's arm and played the emotional card:
"Daughter, I love you so much. It hurts my heart to hear you say that to me!"
"Alright, that's too corny!"
Giving his mother a cold look, Shen Mingbao didn't take it to heart, thinking that she was just like before and had caused some minor trouble again. Seeing that Shen Mingbao stopped asking her, Shen's mother couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If she hadn't really been unable to stay at home, she wouldn't have come to Shen Mingbao's place. After all, it was her daughter and son-in-law's house, and she wouldn't feel comfortable living there. It would be more comfortable to live in her own house. It was a pity that she met the wrong person. She borrowed money for business by acting as a guarantor for her lover, but the lover ran away, and the debt collectors came to her as the guarantor. The house was even splashed with red paint. She didn't dare to tell Shen Mingbao about such a big thing, so she could only hide here first.
