Over the long years that Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen walked hand in hand, they came to realize more and more that family unity is like a towering mountain, able to withstand all storms and storms; it is also like a solid fortress, providing a safe haven for every member. All the difficulties and obstacles in the past were successfully overcome by the concerted efforts of family members.
Now, standing at a new starting point and looking to the future, new challenges loom. In the business world, competitors are fierce, vying for market share. Family businesses face numerous challenges in expanding, including capital turnover, talent pools, and technological innovation. The pressure of public opinion is also ever-present, and even the slightest misstep could trigger a major uproar and damage the family's reputation.
Jiang Zhi knew that in this volatile situation, if family members fought on their own, they would be crushed one by one by the surging tide. So, she decided to call a family meeting to gather all the relatives who were scattered all over the place and busy with various affairs.
On the day of the meeting, the hall of the family mansion was brightly lit, the atmosphere solemn and warm. Jiang Zhi, dressed in a simple yet elegant black suit, her long, lustrous black hair neatly tied back, her eyes firm and sharp, sat at the head of the hall. Shen Qingchen, dressed in a dark suit, stood tall and straight, his face stern. He sat quietly beside her, exuding a reassuring calmness.
Family members took their seats one after another. Among them were elders who were old but experienced. Although their faces were covered with wrinkles, the wisdom in their eyes was still dazzling; there were young and middle-aged people who were in their prime and full of energy. They were all high-spirited and ready to work hard for the future of the family; there were also young and energetic juniors, their eyes full of longing and curiosity about the future.
Jiang Zhi slowly stood up and looked around, her eyes filled with affection and expectation. She cleared her throat, her voice clear and powerful, "Dear relatives, I've gathered you here today because our family is facing unprecedented challenges. Looking back, we've come this far, weathering storms and hardships, yet never been defeated. What has been the key? It's the love for our family that each of us holds in our hearts, and the spirit of unity that has kept us together in the face of adversity, never abandoning each other!"
Her words were like a warm current, flowing through everyone's heart. Everyone nodded, with a firm look in their eyes.
"Today, business competition is becoming increasingly fierce, and the market environment is changing rapidly. Our opponents are eyeing us covetously, trying to snatch everything from us. But I firmly believe that as long as we unite as one, nothing can stop us from moving forward!" Jiang Zhi raised his chin slightly, his tone full of confidence.
An elderly elder stood up, leaning on a cane. His voice was slightly hoarse but full of energy: "Child, you're right! Back then, when our family was in crisis, we were also in dire straits. But everyone gritted their teeth, contributed money and effort, and that's how we got through those dark days. Now, we can't retreat either!"
Everyone echoed, recalling the hardships of the past, and a surge of ambition surged in their hearts.
Shen Qingchen took over Jiang Zhi's words and stood up, his posture as straight as a pine tree: "While facing external challenges, the development of our family cannot be ignored. The financial pressure and talent shortage brought about by corporate expansion require us to discuss solutions together."
At this moment, the family's financial director stood up, pushing his glasses up on his nose, his expression slightly serious. "We've invested a significant amount of money in new investment projects, and it's difficult to recover the funds in the short term, resulting in a tight cash flow. Furthermore, as our business expands, we're facing a growing shortage of professional talent, especially high-end technical and management talent. This has severely hampered our development."
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look worried, whispering to each other and talking about it.
Jiang Zhi frowned slightly, and after a moment's contemplation, he said, "In terms of funding, we can integrate the family's internal resources, rationally adjust the investment layout, and prioritize the funding needs of the core business. At the same time, we will actively expand financing channels and strengthen cooperation with banks and other financial institutions. As for the issue of talent, we must increase our recruitment efforts, not only providing generous remuneration, but also creating a good development environment to attract talented people to stay."
A young member of the family, a graduate of a renowned business school, stood up, a bit green but full of passion. "I think we can also establish our own talent development system, selecting high-potential employees from within for training. This will save costs while ensuring the loyalty of talented individuals to the family business."
Jiang Zhi's eyes flashed with appreciation: "This is a very good suggestion! We must fully tap the potential within the family and let every talented person find a stage to display their talents within the family."
In the heated discussions, family members offered suggestions and proposals, and practical solutions gradually emerged. No longer limited to their own affairs at hand, everyone took the perspective of the family as a whole and made suggestions for the family's future.
The meeting lasted a full day, from dawn to dusk, and the family members' enthusiasm remained undimmed. When the final decision was reached, everyone's face was filled with tired but satisfied smiles.
After the meeting, everyone quickly took action according to the established plan. Those responsible for fund allocation traveled extensively, negotiating partnerships with banks and optimizing investment portfolios. The HR team was busy recruiting and developing internal talent. Business department members were even more motivated to expand their market and enhance product competitiveness.
