Huo Qinian smiled coldly.
There are so many people in the world, could it be that he is just missing a Su Yunbai like her?
He picked up the pen on the table and wanted to approve it on the spot.
But... wait.
No matter whether she is sincere or not, why should he follow her rhythm?
Huo Qinian threw away the pen in his hand, propped up his chin and looked at the documents on the table, squinting slightly.
Half an hour later, a team of seven executives of the Huo Group, led by President Huo himself, drove to Linghang Technology in the new district of City A, under the pretext of inspection.
As soon as Huo Qinian's car left the Huo Group building, the news spread like wildfire.
[Gossip Center on the 19th Floor]
- Big news! President Huo killed Linghang Technology!
- Linghang Technology? I don't have much impression. Am I ignorant?
——Xin Ke should know, right? Xin Ke Holdings' Pilot Technology. Isn't Xin Ke owned by President Huo?
——So?
——Oh my God! Is there anyone who doesn't know that the former Mrs. Huo is in Pilot Technology? No way, no way?
——I know that, but President Huo is obviously going there for inspection. What does it have to do with the former Mrs. Huo? Is the former Mrs. Huo so important?
——Amomum villosum pig heart! Amomum villosum pig heart! [Chuckling]
——But if it's really for official business... Let's be realistic. President Huo's going to Pilot Technology is really sudden. He only finds people on a temporary basis. I heard that President Zhang didn't bring him. You know President Zhang, right? He is in charge of Pilot Technology. He didn't even bring President Zhang. How can this be an inspection?
——Is he going to hold President Zhang accountable?
——Do you believe this? The position under Mr. Zhang is very secure. Didn't you see that Xin Ke is going to go public? He is a direct descendant.
——Then why did Mr. Huo suddenly want to go to Linghang Technology?
——Is it Mr. Huo who has a sudden impulse? Speaking of which, Mr. Huo has indeed never been to Linghang Technology.
——Is it impossible?
——Why not? There are so many branches under the group, and Linghang Technology is just an investment from Xin Ke. Is it that important? Isn't it normal that he has never been there?
——Then the question is, he didn't go before, why is he going now?
——Rumor has it that the former Mrs. Huo, that is, Minister Su of Linghang Technology, is going to resign, and the report was delivered to Mr. Huo's office today.
——Resignation? Is it true?
——Oh my god, she is so scheming! She won't retreat to advance, right?
——A new way to win favor? Tsk tsk tsk tsk.
——I also think this is a very delicate time.
——You guys should stop talking. Minister Su became the minister because of her own ability.
——Have we discussed this? Linghang Technology is managed by President Zheng. Don’t you know what kind of person President Zheng is? He wants to bring all the benefits to his family. The former Mrs. Huo had to call him uncle, just because of this... There are some things that don’t need to be said too much, right? ——Don’t think so
badly of people, right? I have met Minister Su and I feel that she is a very capable person. She resigned now because the company has a rule that senior executives need to inform in advance when they leave.
——No, do you still need to flatter in the anonymous group? ? No need, right?
——Absolutely not. She is no longer Mrs. Huo, and she will soon be Minister Su. Can't people speak freely?
- That's right, if you really think she is so good, you should not come here to listen to gossip.
- Stop arguing, stop arguing! I don't care about Minister Su, I just want to know what will happen after President Huo goes to Pilot Technology!
- Yes, yes, that's what I want to know. Who will go with him?
- I know one, Assistant Liu!
- Someone from the Secretariat. It seems that there is no hope. People over there are tight-lipped and rarely talk nonsense.
- Are you naive, girl? Of course you have to keep your mouth shut when it comes to President Huo, but when it comes to Mrs. Huo... [snicker][snicker]
- Otherwise, where do you think our gossip comes from? Gossip about the 19th floor must be spread by people on the 19th floor!
——It doesn’t matter if Assistant Liu really doesn’t say anything. I also know someone at Pilot Technology! Don’t worry, I can definitely find out.
——Waiting to eat melons. [Melon]
——Hehehe, I heard that Assistant Liu doesn’t like someone very much?
——I would feel upset too. She is a top student who came here to be CEO Huo’s first secretary. She wanted to be a CEO Liu in the future, but she was sent by CEO Huo to take care of someone’s affairs, almost becoming her personal assistant...
——Tsk tsk tsk.
——My ambition is to be a provincial governor, but you actually want me to work in the harem?
——And this harem master is not favored.
——Not only is she not favored, she also has a bad temper.
——She always makes stupid moves.
——The future is bleak, the future is bleak.
——However, Assistant Liu is almost at the end of his life, right?
Assistant Liu, who was sitting in the car, quietly put away her phone and let out a long breath.
She looked at the high-rise buildings that were rapidly receding outside the car window and curled the corners of her lips.
Although the group of people said harsh words, one thing they said was right: she was almost at the end of her life.
She had been with President Huo for four years and saw some things very clearly.
President Huo had his own set of procedures for inspecting branch companies. Unless he wanted to correct the other party's mistakes, he rarely did it like today, without any preparation time, and directly caught people off guard.
This was a very shameless approach.
Don't even mention the whitewashing, that's a high-level way of playing, but at least they had to reserve time for people to make PPT, right?
There was no advance notice, not a word was leaked, and only a notice was given before departure...
Everything was too rushed. By then, even if the branch company's business had nine points of achievement, I'm afraid it would only be able to present seven points.
If one more person gets nervous...
looking at Mr. Huo's expression and the lineup of their group, it would be hard for the other party not to be nervous.
Being nervous will lead to mistakes. Then, a good result will only be five points. When
Assistant Liu thought of this, her expression softened unconsciously.
She had no grudge against Su Yunbai. If you look closely, they were actually alumni: she studied for her master's degree at K University.
Good birds choose trees to roost in. She is young and does not want to waste it on bags, jewelry, dresses and other trivial matters related to Mrs. Huo. Is it too much? When
Assistant Liu thought of this, she felt more at ease.
Huo Qinian and his group of four cars soon arrived at the gate of Linghang Technology.
President Zheng and his men greeted them at the gate. When he saw the car coming, he enthusiastically went downstairs to greet it. He had a smile on his fair face and looked very elegant and easy-going.
Judging from his appearance alone, Mr. Zheng can definitely be said to stand out among a group of executives who are potbellied or even "extremely smart". He was famous for his elegance and good looks when he was young, and even though he is a little less handsome in middle age, he is still very presentable.
Otherwise, he would not have fascinated Huo Manying, who is always domineering and unyielding.
It's a pity that there is a saying of "beautiful straw bag" in the world. Although Mr. Zheng can't be called a straw bag, his ability is just so-so.
Huo Qinian didn't have a great impression of his cheap uncle, but he didn't hate him either. He just nodded in a businesslike manner and swept his eyes through the people standing behind Mr. Zheng.
Men, men, men, women...
- He didn't know any of them.
Oh, Teacher Su is so arrogant!
Huo Qinian laughed and patted Mr. Zheng on the shoulder.
Mr. Zheng's hair stood up.
Actually, Huo Qinian still called him uncle, but he never dared to act like an elder in front of Huo Qinian. Instead, he was a little afraid of him.
Huo Qinian said slowly, "Mr. Zheng, I'm afraid it's not the right time for a temporary inspection."
Mr. Zheng's smile froze, "No, no. Everyone in our company welcomes Mr. Huo's arrival. It's just that some people are on business trips, and some people are not in the company because of temporary matters..."
A group of people walked inside together.
The new district of City A is still under construction, and many facilities are not yet complete. Even so, every inch of land here is worth a lot of money.
A company like Pilot Technology, because of its corporate characteristics, even with the backing of a large capital like Xinke, only occupies three floors in this building.
Of course, they are the best three floors.
This building has a total of 23 floors, and Pilot Technology is between the 11th and 13th floors, which can only be reached by elevator.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Huo Qinian's eyebrows slightly raised.
It's not that he is picky, but this elevator looks really shabby. Not only is it cramped, but there are also irregular wooden boards of various sizes nailed around the compartment, and colorful advertisements are posted on them.
Huo Qinian glanced to the left and saw a plastic surgeon. To the right, he saw another infertility treatment...
Not to mention Huo Qinian, everyone who came with him had a look of confusion.
Zheng's forehead was slightly sweating, but he still explained: "Some places in this building have not been rented out yet, and some places are still under renovation. The conditions look average..."
"There are actually many elevators in the building. Aren't there three next to us? In addition to these, there is a bigger elevator. It's just that today is unfortunate, and that elevator is under maintenance...
"How about we change to the one next door?"
Huo Qinian: "No, just this one."
The elevator has a small capacity, and with so many people, it is naturally impossible to accommodate them all at once. Many of the people that Mr. Zheng brought naturally stopped outside the elevator door.
The elevator door closed.
The people who stopped outside the elevator looked at each other and couldn't help but whispered.
"There are four elevators. Why did President Zheng choose the worst one? Everyone knows that the elevator is temporarily used as a freight elevator, okay?"
"How would President Zheng know? He comes from the parking lot every day and takes the largest elevator. He thinks they are all the same."
"But this will ruin our image! It makes our company look low-class."
"Technology companies should be small and exquisite. Why do they need to be so high-end?"
"Don't worry about it for now. Have you contacted Minister Su? We all know that President Zheng only cares about his reputation. If there is a meeting at that time... I feel worried for President Zheng when I think about it."
"Yes, yes, how could he be so mean ? Minister Su actually went back to University A for a meeting today...
" "I have already contacted her. But it will take at least half an hour to get from University A to here, right?"
"Look, if President Zheng is smart, he should take them around our company first. Let's hurry up, is last month's PPT still here? Fix it quickly, so that if Minister Su is late, we can still hold on."
On the other side, in the elevator compartment.
In such a large space, there is only President Zheng, an "outsider".
President Zheng is a little nervous.
The elevator goes up.
Someone asked: "President Zheng, is Linghang Technology short of funds?"
Why did you choose such a place?
President Zheng said, "Not really. We have enough funds. What Minister Su meant was that we are a technology company after all. The bulk of the funds should be used for research and development. As for other things, we should control the costs as much as possible...
" "The conditions here are not bad..."
President Zheng had just finished speaking when the elevator stopped on the seventh floor.
The elevator door opened. Outside the door, a young man in blue overalls, a helmet, and holding a pile of wooden boards in his hands looked at them in bewilderment.
It was Assistant Liu who was standing next to the elevator control panel who responded first, "The elevator is full. Please wait for the next one." "
The elevator door closed.
This time, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit depressing.
The elevator door was open for a short while just now, but it was enough for them to see clearly: the floor they just stopped at was empty, and it was obvious that no one was there.
"Mr. Zheng, I wonder how many companies are stationed in this building? I don't think it looks very prosperous."
"This, this... each floor here is independent, and it's not easy for me to inquire about other people's situations..."
"What about before you rented the place? You should have learned about the surrounding environment before deciding on the company's location, right?"
"We were the first group to move in. I heard from Minister Su that three floors of this building had already been rented out at that time."
"Could it be your three floors?"
"Uh... this... shouldn't it be?"
In this case, yes or no, what "should" be?
Who was inspecting?
Everyone in the group couldn't help but frown.
Huo Qinian suddenly asked, "So the company's location was decided by Minister Su?"
This time, General Zheng didn't hesitate: "Yes, Minister Su did a lot of work."
Huo Qinian raised his eyebrows, and the expression on his face was interesting.
The elevator finally arrived.
After the elevator door opened, the first thing everyone saw was a floor covered with marble tiles and two elevator doors opposite.
There is a green potted plant standing between the two elevator doors, almost half a person's height. But slightly lower on the stem of the potted plant, there is a hollow opening.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that the potted plant actually only occupies a small part of the space above, and there is a trash can at the bottom.
It’s also chic.
Don't underestimate this design. Its existence complements the marble floor and the layout around the elevator, and it instantly makes the scenery look high-end.
At the same time, it also draws everyone’s attention away from the wooden boards and small advertisements in the elevator, making people believe that what comes next will be a new world.
What follows is indeed a new world.
Almost all the main space on the 11th floor has been opened up. Outside a glass wall, there are several rows of computers, and people are busy in front of the computers. Pairs of hands are constantly tapping on keyboards, but people standing outside the glass wall can hardly hear any sound.
Further outside the office area, where the sun can shine, there is a wall full of potted plants. At a glance, a thriving green makes people feel cheerful.
President Zheng introduced: "This is the R&D Department, which is under the charge of Minister Gong. The core code of our software was born here..."
"The glass wall is designed for sound insulation. I have tried it, and our normal communication here will not disturb them." There are roller blinds inside the glass wall, which are usually half-closed, giving our employees enough private space...
"Those green plants... There weren't so many at the beginning. Minister Su only put a few pots there. Later, our employees added some themselves, and even brought plants from their own homes.
"Usually, when they get tired of typing code, they grow flowers and plants to relax their eyes..."
"This is a small conference room, there are two in total, mainly used for meetings within the department, more private. Sometimes our employees also rest here..."
After visiting the eleventh and twelfth floors, the group went to the thirteenth floor.
As soon as they climbed the stairs to the thirteenth floor, they first saw a large conference room. Unlike the small private conference rooms on the eleventh and twelfth floors, the conference room here was more spacious and tidy, and more formal and professional.
Seeing this, the people behind Huo Qinian were moved.
To be honest, this was the style they were familiar with.
Outside the conference room was the office of the main person in charge of Leading Technology. Looking out The most open one in the room was undoubtedly Mr. Zheng's office.
Mr. Zheng enthusiastically led people to his office.
Huo Qinian walked slowly, passing the conference room, Office A, Office B, Office C...
Finally, he stopped, raised his head slightly, and looked at the closed black-brown door in front of him. Next to the door was a nameplate of the owner of the office -
Director of the R&D Department, Su Yunbai.
Huo Qinian said slowly: "Come to think of it, the doors of the offices on this floor are all open, why is this one closed? Minister Su is not here during office hours?"
