Chapter 50
Chu Wen was also invited to participate in the science and technology innovation forum.
She naturally knew that Chu Muchao intended to bring her people along.
When he received the invitation, he learned that Gu Xinyi had already sent several invitations to Chu Muchao in advance.
Chu Wen was not happy.
He was happy about Chu Muchao's growth, but also annoyed that she had grown to the point where she no longer needed him.
-
Seating at the conference was arranged in advance.
Chu Muchao and Chu Wen sat together, with the senior executives from the group headquarters behind Chu Wen, while the branch office staff were seated in the very back.
After the seating arrangements are confirmed, the planner submits the plan to the supervisor for review.
The supervisor first checked the seating arrangements for a few key individuals, and after that, he gave a general overview of the seating.
Upon seeing the words "Dream Unlimited Co., Ltd." displayed in the second-to-last row, the application was immediately rejected.
"These people have been assigned seats in the row behind Miss Chu."
The planner was puzzled: "Why? Although the company belongs to the MZ Group, it's just an average company. Last year, its revenue was only around ten million."
Supervisor: "The invitation was personally delivered by the boss, and it was brought by Miss Chu."
"What?! Okay, I'll go change the seats right now!"
Shi Xiyu and the others were reassigned to the front row, behind Chu Muchao.
On the day of the science and technology innovation forum, Chu Wen and Chu Muchao attended together.
Behind Chu Wen was the highly sought-after technology research and development team of MZ Group, whose masterpieces would be showcased at this forum.
Chu Muchao only brought people who came to visit and learn.
People were talking about it behind their backs.
"If MZ Group is handed over to Chu Muchao, then it's finished."
"Can't you all see this? Chu Wen is here to assert his dominance. The group grew under his leadership, how could he possibly hand it over to someone else? And look at the people Chu Muchao brought. They're supposedly from a small company with annual revenue of only a few million. What do they have to compete with Chu Wen?"
"Why make a fool of yourself like this?"
"Perhaps this is Yan Ke's test for Chu Muchao. If he can multiply the revenue of his small company, which has an annual income of several million, he can regain the right to inherit the company."
Chu Muchao himself did not pay attention to the discussions behind him.
She has always believed that she doesn't need to explain her thoughts and actions to anyone, and that they are none of anyone else's business.
Chu Wen took all of these people's words to heart.
-
The forum will now conclude.
Shi Xiyu and Xia Ling each brought two people to the event. Afterwards, they chatted in the corridor.
Chu Muchao and Chu Wen were the last to come out, and they were accompanied by other people who were talking to them.
Chu Muchao caught a glimpse of Shi Xiyu and Xia Ling, then turned and squeezed Chu Wen's hand.
"I'll go over and talk to them first."
Chu Wen nodded: "I'll wait for you here."
Chu Muchao smiled at him and walked towards Shi Xiyu and the others.
After watching Chu Muchao leave, the person next to him turned and whispered to Chu Wen.
"If you ask me, you're more suited to running the group. She's just a little girl; she's better suited to managing a small company for fun..."
The man's unfinished words were automatically silenced when he saw clearly Wen's gaze.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense. Mr. Chu cherishes his sister very much, right, Mr. Chu?"
"That's right, that's right, we all have the surname Chu, we're all one family, what are you saying?"
Someone nearby tried to smooth things over.
Chu Wen sneered.
"The Chu family and the MZ Group both belong to her; I have no blood relation with her."
The people nearby fell silent.
Chu Mu raised his chin at Xia Ling and Shi Xiyu.
"So? Any thoughts?"
Shi Xiyu and Xia Ling nodded at the same time.
“But…” Shi Xiyu hesitated, “If we’re going to make changes right now, it won’t be easy to actually get things moving. I need some time to develop a complete plan.”
Xia Ling chimed in, "Yes, both short-term and long-term plans need to be revised; continuing to use the old standards won't work."
"What a coincidence, I also have some ideas of my own."
Chu Muchao smiled and said, "This forum has given me a lot of inspiration. Let's meet next Monday and have a good chat. I'll organize my thoughts in the next few days."
"good."
After finishing his conversation with them, Chu Muchao went back to find Chu Wen.
She noticed that Chu Wen was right behind her, only about three meters away, staring intently at her.
When their eyes met, Chu Wen's cold black eyes seemed to melt away instantly, becoming much softer.
Shi Xiyu followed Chu Muchao's gaze and said, "Are you all going together? Then we'll be going now."
Chu Muchao: "Mhm."
Chu Muchao walked briskly toward Chu Wen.
"What's going on? Did someone make my brother angry?"
Chu Wen raised an eyebrow.
His expression seemed to ask: How did you know I was angry?
Chu Muchao pouted: "Your expression is so fierce, it scared my friends."
"Hmm." Chu Wen raised his arm.
Chu Muchao naturally took his arm: "Then let's go. I want to get home quickly and sort out my thoughts."
"good."
-
That evening, Chu Muchao was fiddling with his laptop in his room.
Chu Wen also spent several hours busy in the study before coming out.
The next day, Chu Muchao got up and went downstairs.
Chu Wen was already waiting for her at the restaurant to have breakfast together. There was also a stack of documents on the table next to her.
Chu Muchao saw the top document, which clearly stated in large characters: Equity Transfer Agreement.
Chu Muchao was stunned.
"elder brother?"
Chu Wen didn't even look up, and said in a deep voice.
"This was originally yours."
Chu Muchao frowned: "Even if I take over the company, there's no need to transfer the shares to me as well. My mom gave me 5% of the shares after I came of age."
Chu Wen raised the corners of his lips: "This is also part of my plan. Only with a clear division of assets can I pursue you openly and legitimately."
She didn't understand, and she didn't agree with it either.
"This is your share, given to you by your parents. Even if you don't transfer it to me, we're still the same."
"no the same."
Chu Wen's tone was very firm.
He looked up and met Chu Muchao's eyes.
“For me, Chaochao is different; it has a completely different meaning.”
Chu Muchao's eyes instantly reddened.
"So, will you move away from here later? Are we going to have a long-distance relationship in the same city?"
"What?"
Chu Wen was amused by Chu Muchao's words.
Seeing the tears welling up in her eyes, I couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. I quickly got up and pulled her into my arms.
"Chaochao, this will be better than before. Don't cry, your brother will always be by your side."
At this moment, Chu Muchao realized that she also had a possessive and controlling desire for Chu Wen.
Because they grew up together, Chu Wen had always been by her side.
Going abroad was her own choice. Whenever Chu Wen had time and opportunity, he would contact her and come to see her. She never worried that Chu Wen might be doing something she didn't know about when she couldn't see him.
Chu Wen's life was simple and monotonous.
She could say with absolute confidence that Chu Wen only had her on his mind when he was away from work.
But at this moment, she realized that Chu Wen, in places she couldn't see, not only thought a lot but also actually did a lot.
Chu Wen has many secrets she doesn't know.
Behind her back, he also secretly did many things.
-
Unable to resist Chu Wen's insistence, Chu Muchao accepted Chu Wen's equity transfer.
Not just the shares, but all the rights and information he possesses.
"You go ahead and do your own thing. I've already organized all the materials. I can teach you whenever you have time."
Chu Muchao understood what he meant.
He will gradually relinquish control of the group and hand it over to her.
Chu Muchao did not refuse again.
They didn't ask Chu Wen about his plans after leaving the group.
She didn't dare ask.
She had a vague idea of what Chu Wen was planning.
She didn't want to verify it.
*
The MZ Group was officially handed over to Chu Muchao.
Only after she officially took over the company did she realize how much Chu Wen had prepared for her.
From management to technical staff, everyone was handpicked and trained by him. Even if she simply continued to follow the rules Chu Wen had taught her, the group would still be able to operate very well.
Chu Wen didn't even take Wu Mi with him.
When Chu Muchao, as president, stepped into the top floor for the first time, the personnel arrangements here had already been adjusted.
What used to be Chu Wen's office has now been redesigned and rearranged according to her preferences and habits.
The most obvious change is that the black and white monogram decorations have now been filled with color.
Wu Mi said, "The design here was redecorated by Mr. Chu according to your preferences, President Chu. And the books and supplies here were personally selected and delivered by Mr. Chu for you."
Chu Muchao looked around and was quite satisfied.
After all, the preferences she showed to Chu Wen had already been applied here.
Chu Muchao asked, "What else did he say to you?"
Wu replied, "Also tell me about your preferences and habits, Mr. Chu."
Chu Muchao asked, "Will you stay at the company from now on? Not with Chu Wen?"
Secretary Wu shook his head: "The company trained me so that I could serve you."
Wu Mi's answer made Chu Muchao momentarily dazed.
This makes it sound as if Chu Wen specifically chose someone suitable for her to use and trained them according to her preferences and habits.
That's weird.
After taking office, Chu Muchao's first decision was to transfer General Manager Zhao of the Dream Unlimited branch and promote Xia Ling and Shi Xiyu, giving them the space and power to act freely.
The second thing is to require the company not to require employees to "voluntarily work overtime" without paying overtime wages.
Chu Muchao convened a meeting, allowing everyone in the group to participate online, and specifically mentioned this point.
"Don't have any voluntary overtime policy. Either go through the proper procedures to report overtime, or leave work on time. Overtime is overtime. Calculate employees' overtime pay honestly according to the contract. This is their rightful earnings."
“I have experienced situations where the work I report to the group is not heavy, and I never have to work overtime, but I am asked to stay and work overtime with others, and be on call at any time. There is no specific work content, only waiting to be assigned. I hope that such a situation will never happen again in the future.”
"Work regular hours and schedules, don't go through those slave contracts."
"There's one more thing."
Chu Muchao cleared his throat and lowered his voice.
"I will talk to the managers of each department and branch office about everyone's salary to avoid two problems. First, there is little work and high pay; second, there is a lot of work and low pay."
She didn't know if she had done the right thing.
The senior management, including General Manager Zhao and A Dong, compared her salary as an intern at the branch office with the salaries of other employees she knew, and found the disparity in pay to be too great.
She wanted to change that and not let down those who worked hard.
