Supervisors at all levels left one after another, but the ordinary employees on site were still there. Everyone who had witnessed the commotion was stunned. It was the first time they had ever seen that the CEO was so young.
And... that hair... it's very tasteful!
"My God, the chairman is so young?"
"He looks even younger than Mr. Zhang!"
"I'm going to dye my hair that color."
“............”
In a private room in the cafeteria, Lu Feng ate his meal expressionlessly. The door was pushed open, and Zhang Fengxia walked in, sat opposite him, and stared at him for more than ten seconds.
"Don't keep a long face. You gave me a dressing down in front of the whole company. Why didn't you tell me you were coming back beforehand? Why did you have to surprise me?" Zhang Fengxia put her bag aside and said, "Internal management needs to be improved gradually. I'll go to the meeting in a bit and talk about it."
"Hmm!" Lu Feng responded in a muffled voice.
"What happened to your hair? Is everything over there done?"
"It's all settled. Send a few capable people to take over tomorrow and restore order as soon as possible. My hair is dyed." Lu Feng stared at the dishes in front of him, then took a bite of each dish.
Zhang Fengxia sat there rolling her eyes. This man wouldn't even glance at her.
"Why are you all dressed up like this?" Lu Feng asked.
"Dating a man!" Zhang Fengxia said irritably, "a particularly handsome man."
"Really?" Lu Feng looked up and smiled, "Congratulations!"
"What congratulations? Can't you understand what I'm saying?" Zhang Fengxia leaned back in her chair and sighed. "I just got back from a banquet, and you gave me a good scolding."
“If you don’t do a good job, you’ll naturally get scolded. How’s the situation with President Zhu?” Lu Feng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and asked.
“I don’t concern myself with his affairs. I don’t get involved in anything except my administrative work. You’re right, he is indeed very aggressive, but he’s met his match this time and hasn’t returned yet.” Zhang Fengxia’s expression was not good, clearly indicating that she had not been getting along well with Zhu Lidong recently.
Lu Feng was not surprised. Internal management sought stability, while external market management was more aggressive. In terms of marketing, the company naturally hoped that the entire company would be responsible for the market terminals and become the strong support for the marketing department.
"His relationship with finance is even worse. One of his vice presidents went to argue with the finance manager and almost got into a fight. The head of the budget department came to me crying, and the heads of the advertising and business departments have also come to me several times. This company isn't just a place where he calls the shots." Zhang Fengxia said irritably, "If you can just raise the advertising budget like that, what's the point of having you as chairman?"
Lu Feng didn't speak. This kind of internal competition is normal. Under the current management model, the tension between departments will always exist.
It's been so long, and the market there still hasn't been developed. It seems we've really run into a tough problem this time.
Lu Feng inquired about the company's recent affairs and nodded, saying, "Find a few local newspapers to publicize our acquisition of Tianying Copper Industry. I'll handle things with General Manager Zhu."
"Alright, I can't control what others do. You must be tired from driving back, right? Get some rest." Zhang Fengxia stood up and said, "I have to go to a meeting. By the way, your hair..."
Lu Feng reached up and touched his hair, saying, "I'll dye it black tomorrow!"
Lu Feng was particularly tired today. After returning to his office, he looked at some reports, took a shower, and called Jiang Xiaoyan to tell her that he was back.
I was planning to go back in early April, but it looks like I'll have to wait until midsummer.
Before 10 o'clock, Lu Feng had already fallen asleep.
.............
Inside the municipal government office, Huang Youwei stood in front of his desk, looking at the flags displayed on it, his face expressionless.
Secretary Cui stood to the side and whispered a reminder: "You should rest. You haven't been getting six hours of sleep these past few days."
"I can't sleep. This year is crucial."
"You've been working too hard."
"Isn't this what I should do? Being here, I should be ready to give my all. He's passed the first hurdle, but I can't help him with the rest." Huang Youwei opened a drawer, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one, and leaned against his desk, saying, "Shouldn't I have placed my hopes on him?"
“We have enough evidence, so we can arrest those people from Haochen Copper Industry now,” Secretary Cui said.
"And then what? The market just emerged, right?" Huang Youwei tapped his cigarette ash and said, "If a new order cannot be established, then the old order is the best order. Their chain of interests needs to be completely broken, otherwise, with so many companies putting pressure on each other, a second and a third will emerge!"
Secretary Cui stood aside without saying a word.
"Wish him luck. Give a brief summary of the situation over there, and treat him to a meal tomorrow to give him some instructions." Huang Youwei stubbed out his cigarette and walked towards the door.
.............
Inside the office building, most of Haochen Copper Industry's offices had their lights off, except for the chairman's office, where Li Yelong sat smoking one cigarette after another, filling the room with smoke.
"Dad, things shouldn't be that bad, right?" Li Yelong asked, looking up.
"It's worse than you believe. In Shandong and Hebei provinces, Wepda's market share has recently started to grow rapidly, and they've already clashed with local companies. Their declining market share will directly affect us." General Manager Li sighed deeply, somewhat astonished, "It's happening so fast!"
"Weipuda's market promotion is indeed very fast. Its scale is already three times that of Enfan's high-end TVs. This Lu Feng is really a sharp sword for Huang Youwei!"
