I can believe everything else Mulan Qing said, but I really can’t believe this.
If she believed this, wouldn't she be a fool?
Chen Pingsheng said, "I'm not lying to you. You can call Zhang Wanyi right now to confirm. I think her story is quite inspiring and very suitable for being made into a short play or TV series."
"Mr. Chen, are you serious?"
Mulan Qing asked this while pressing WeChat key in her hand non-stop. It was obvious that she was sending messages to Zhang Wanyi.
With an identity like the founder of Tengying Group, especially since he is already retired, no one in China dares to directly claim it. At most, they would try to claim that he is a relative.
If he directly said it was him, it didn't matter what the impostor's identity was or where he was.
He will be caught within the hour.
Zhang Wanyi sent her a WeChat message, or they had a video chat directly, and Mulanqing picked up the call.
Zhang Wanyi simply said, "Let my Uncle Chen answer the phone."
Mulanqing was so scared that her phone almost fell to the ground. Zhang Wanyi was not as cold and aloof in front of Chen Pingsheng as outsiders thought.
"Uncle Chen, you haven't come to see me, your little secretary, for a long time!"
"It's been a while."
Chen Pingsheng said, "I'll be staying in Baiyun for the time being and won't be going anywhere. I happen to be in the short drama field that you're in charge of, and I'm really curious to see what you've achieved over the years."
"My achievements are all thanks to you, Uncle Chen. Can I come to see you this afternoon?"
"Sure, I happen to be free this afternoon, so come over here and have dinner with me."
"Thank you, Uncle Chen."
Zhang Wanyi hung up the phone happily. Mulan Qing was really sure this time, 100% sure.
My legs went weak and I almost fell to the ground.
"Mr. Chen, you are really the chairman..."
"I haven't been chairman for many years."
Chen Pingsheng said: "You don't need to be treated specially. I came to your place just to be a simple worker."
"With your status, how can you be a worker?" Mulan Qing respectfully poured him tea.
"You're welcome, let's get down to business."
Chen Pingsheng said, "You should be able to confirm Zhang Wanyi's story by now. It could definitely be made into a TV series or a novel. She was born into a very ordinary family. She was chosen as my secretary thanks to the recommendation of my first chief secretary, Bai Xin. Tengying Group was already a well-known and large group in Beijing at that time. Zhang Wanyi was chosen by Bai Xin during her internship, so her ability is truly unquestionable."
Workplace novels and TV dramas have been poorly produced in recent years.
They mainly disguise themselves as working women and film those cliché idol romance dramas.
How could it be popular in the market? It’s different now. We have Chen Pingsheng as the chairman and Mulan Qing as a top female writer who is also a strong figure in the workplace.
This TV series will definitely be a good one.
Mulan Qing was very interested in recording it, and by noon, they had almost forgotten the time.
And the members of his team have been waiting for him, the team leader, to come out and treat them to a meal.
It was only when Chen Pingsheng looked at the time on his watch that he remembered that he wanted to invite the group to a dinner.
"Mr. Xiaomu, I won't treat you to lunch at noon. Let's meet up again in the afternoon."
Mulan Qing was very happy because the meaning was very clear: she would take her and Zhang Wanyi to dinner in the afternoon.
This is a great thing!
…
On the other side, Tengyou Media.
The Tengyou headquarters building is decorated with a gold-plated glass curtain wall, which reflects the flowing and brilliant galaxy under the sunlight.
As if solidifying the tremendous power into eternal art, every detail speaks of the extraordinary demeanor of this company.
Zhang Wanyi has taken over the group for more than twenty years.
During these twenty years, she has become a veritable queen of the media industry, with her business territories covering too many industries.
But today was a rare day when she was particularly happy.
It was nothing, she had an appointment with the chairman for lunch.
In the president's office, in addition to the common sofa, tea table, and treadmill, there is also a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror.
From this mirror, you can see how hard she works every day, and on the side of the office, there is a lounge and cloakroom that belongs to her.
Zhang Wanyi changed several sets of clothes in there, but she was never satisfied with any of them.
"Xiao Jing, do you think this outfit looks good on me? Doesn't it look a bit too frivolous to wear this to meet Uncle Chen?"
"No, Sister Wanyi, you look good in anything you wear."
Zhang Wanyi shook her head. "When I was with Uncle Chen, I wore standard business attire every day. Later, when I was transferred to Guangdong to take over Tengyou Media, I could only see Uncle Chen five or six times a year. In the past ten years, even seeing him twice a year has become a luxury. Uncle Chen has devoted more of his attention to his family. After completing the succession of the group, even those of us who were first brought up by him may not have the opportunity to have dinner with him twice a year."
Secretary Xiaojing is also a very capable person. She has been in the group for eight years and has been with Zhang Wanyi for five of them. She never expected that Queen Zhang of the media industry, who is unattainable in the eyes of outsiders, actually has such a side to her.
Just because of a meal, she kept trying here, and I could even clearly feel her nervousness.
Xiaojing had never met the former chairman, but in her eyes, Zhang Wanyi was already the most powerful person in the world.
"Sister Wanyi, since the chairman has come to Baiyun, there should be many opportunities for us to meet in the future, right?"
"You don't know Uncle Chen."
After hanging up a slightly sexy and luxurious dress, Zhang Wanyi took out a casual outfit to try on.
"Ever since he decided to relinquish power and hand over all executive control of the group, including the right to make decisions, he's rarely discussed work matters with us anymore. We've been forced to make all the decisions ourselves. I know Uncle Chen doesn't want us to become dependent on him, and he doesn't want any of us to be without him. After more than a decade of development, many people in the group are like you, only recognizing us as the family heads and not the original founders."
"Isn't this...what should be done?" Xiao Jing said subconsciously.
"It's indeed what he should do, but how many people can have the same vision as Uncle Chen?"
Zhang Wanyi smiled faintly and said, "When I was a secretary, Uncle Chen often said that a company can only create gods in the early stages of development. Once it has developed to a certain level, it must completely get rid of personal dependence or personal deification. This is not conducive to the group's long-term development. The past is gone, and the future can only do their part when they take over. Any attempt to tie the group's life or personal honor to the group is not conducive to the group's long-term operation."
Xiaojing didn’t quite understand.
It took Zhang Wanyi ten years to fully understand that Uncle Chen had good intentions after all.
In terms of vision and perspective, few can compare with Uncle Chen.
This is also the main reason why the group can continue to develop steadily in the post-Chen Shu era.
