When Ma Xiaoshuai and Dingdian drove to the resettlement house, Chen Fan was holding a meeting on site with the person in charge of Qifan Construction.
Seeing Ma Xiaoshuai and Dingdian at the door, Chen Fan smiled and spoke to everyone in the conference room.
"Alright. Let's stop here for today's meeting. When you get home, follow my instructions."
Everyone stood up, said goodbye to Chen Fan, and walked to the door to greet Ma Xiaoshuai and Dingdian.
After everyone left, Chen Fan smiled and spoke to the two people at the door.
"Come in."
"Why are you here?"
Ma Xiaoshuai asked with a smile as he entered the room.
While pouring water for the two of them, Chen Fan casually explained, "The resettlement housing project is finished."
"Qifan Construction spent several years and finally completed the shantytown renovation project. It has lived up to Mayor Tong's expectations."
Handing the two of them a cup of water, Chen Fan asked with a smile.
"What do you two want from me?"
Ma Xiaoshuai looked at Dingdian next to him.
"Vice President Ding wants to see you about something. I'm mainly here to join in the fun."
"You're quite laid back."
Chen Fan joked and then turned to look at Dingdian next to him.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Dingdian looked depressed.
"You can take care of those guys."
Dingdian briefly recounted what happened this afternoon in a sarcastic tone, then looked at Chen Fan speechlessly.
"You proposed the activity, so you have to provide a plan."
"Those guys almost broke down my office door this afternoon."
Chen Fan laughed out loud when he heard that.
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded, "It's just that exaggerated."
"Everyone wants to get more spots for their company. Especially Guo Shuai, whose Qifan Property has the most male employees and is crying out for fairness."
Chen Fan laughed and said, "Didn't you tell them this was just the first one? There will be more to come. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Dingdian glanced at Ma Xiaoshuai and said nothing.
Ma Xiaoshuai had no choice but to smile and say, "They said that the first ones selected are often the most outstanding and beautiful female employees, and they have to fight for benefits for their own employees."
"What kind of logic is this?"
Chen Fan was speechless and asked while looking at Dingdian.
"Is this the same requirement for everyone in the 꺶 family?"
"Yes, everyone wants more places."
"But we only have one spot for this event, and each company gets one point, so we basically don't have any extra spots."
Chen Fan was happy.
"Since the 꺶 family is so enthusiastic, why not consider their appeal?"
"How about this, each company or department can be given 15 more spots."
Ding Dian was stunned.
"In this case, the total number of people must be at least two or three. Our activity plan has been finalized. The indoor event is scheduled to be held in the company's conference room."
"If we increase the number of places so much, we will have enough venues for our current activities."
"Also, the budget needs to be increased."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "Budget increase is a big deal."
"As for the venue being insufficient, why not change it?"
Chen Fan thought for a moment and suggested, "We can directly switch to the Medal Club."
"The club has ample space, including an indoor basketball court and an indoor soccer field. It's sufficient for both indoor and outdoor activities."
Dingdian shrugged. "If you have no objection, then I naturally have no objection."
"Then tell them this. Tell them it's my decision. Each company will be given 15 more spots."
"Tell them that this is just the first session and the group will organize more activities in the future. Everyone will have a chance."
After finishing the business, Chen Fan gave Ding Dian some instructions.
"You've come just in time. When you get back, have the group send a few people to Los Angeles to monitor the progress of the labor market company and the travel agency."
A little curious: "Do you trust them?"
Chen Fan shook his head.
"It's about trust. I just want the project to move forward faster."
"Some things should be avoided as much as possible. Especially the travel company, which was jointly funded with several local companies in Los Angeles."
"So our group must make its position clear to avoid any more messy problems later."
Ding nodded: "I understand. I'll make arrangements when we get back."
"Nothing else, I'll go back to the company first."
Chen Fan nodded, "Okay."
"Xiao Shuai, come with me. Your wife is at my house."
After sending Dingdian away, Chen Fan looked at the resettlement housing in front of him and said with some emotion.
"This land has completely changed the lives of tens of thousands of people. It's given so many people housing. Can't we say we've done a good thing?"
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded.
"Your merit is immeasurable. They'll have to erect a monument for you and Mayor Tong."
Chen Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Forget it, just don't let these people scold me later."
"Scold you? Is that really necessary?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "You understand. There are all kinds of people who can live in the resettlement housing here."
"Some people are trying to fight to get a good floor, while others are trying to take advantage of the situation and buy a few more apartments."
"Some elderly people were even carried to the construction site by their sons and daughters-in-law just to get an extra house for their unmarried sons."
"Some young couples choose to fake a divorce in order to get more housing..."
“There are simply too many such things.”
Ma Xiaoshuai glared: "Were the specific rules posted before the construction of our resettlement housing?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "How can they know if it will succeed if they try it?"
"What if there's a chance of making some money? Isn't that right?"
Ma Xiaoshuai shook his head speechlessly.
“So, there’s a reason why some people are poor.”
Chen Fan shook his head.
"You can't say that. It's more like poverty has magnified their shortcomings."
"If they really became rich, they might cause trouble over these trivial matters."
Ma Xiaoshuai agreed with this.
"It has nothing to do with being poor. I think it depends on the individual. Some people are just as bad as they are rich."
Chen Fan smiled and didn't continue speaking.
Instead, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
The phone rang a few times before the other end picked up.
"Hello, Mr. Chen?"
A somewhat disappointed voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. Let me introduce myself. I'm Mayor Tong's secretary. My last name is Liu Qiang."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "Hello, Secretary Liu. I'm Chen Fan. Is Mayor Tong free now? I need to talk to him about something."
"Is Mr. Chen's matter urgent? Mayor Tong is currently receiving guests. If it's urgent, you can wait here..."
Before he could finish his words, Secretary Liu suddenly changed the subject excitedly.
"The door to Mayor Tong's office is open. This should be the end."
"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment. I'll go report to Mayor Tong."
Soon, a steady and powerful voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Chen Fan?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Chen Fan smiled.
"Mayor Tong, long time no see."
"Why did you think of calling me?"
Chen Fan got straight to the point.
"The resettlement housing project in Yunhai has officially ended today. I'm here to report the good news to Mayor Tong."
