At 9:40, the phone conference started on ti, and Shen Yuan's face appeared on the conference room screen.
"Good morning, Mr. Shen."
"Good morning, Mr. Shen."
"Boss, good morning."
Seeing the boss's figure, a few people sitting at the conference table greeted one after another.
The last one was Yu Jifeng, who laughed and said, "Mr. Shen, you are really too busy, even having etings while in the car."
Shen Yuan sat in the second row of the Alphard and smiled to himself, thinking I'm just too busy, He Mu dical Group doesn't need to manage, Jingfu Health has beco an easy job, and this foundation is all run by you guys.
Old Yu, are you forcibly flattering ?
Seeing Old Yu flattering the boss, Liu Lan also laughed and followed the rhythm: "Yes, thank you for your concern, Mr. Shen. It's because we are not working hard enough that you have to worry so much."
The words were hypocritical, but you have to admit, they were quite comforting to hear, Shen Yuan increasingly understood why those who flatter others often climb up the ranks.
"Let's start the eting."
As Shen Yuan gestured, Long Jinghan, the deputy secretary-general of Yuan Yi Foundation, stood up. The executive aspect was mainly managed by her, Liu Lan, and Yu Jifeng.
The foundation was initially poorly managed, but now it has gradually ford a team structure.
Project mbers, administrative staff, public relations, human resources, donation relations specialists... all these positions were already filled.
After Long Jinghan reported on the progress of human resources, Liu Lan stood up to report on the $10 million project for Liya Middle School. Last ti, Shen Yuan had donated $10 million to Liya in the na of Yuan Yi Foundation, which made the news on several TV stations in Star City.
During that period, Principal Tang of Liya, carrying a banner and accompanied by the school's leadership and student representatives, ca to the foundation's office to express their gratitude.
Principal Tang also brought a thank-you video, where all the teachers and students of Liya solemnly expressed their gratitude on the playground for Shen Yuan and the foundation.
A one-ti donation of $10 million for education, plus Principal Tang's deliberate promotion, attracted the reporters from Star City TV Station. Aside from covering the donation, they wanted to do a special interview with Shen Yuan.
But since Shen Yuan was in Shanghai at that ti, the reporters could only interview the foundation's executive team and directors.
Worried that there wouldn't be enough material for the news, Principal Tang volunteered more footage for the interview, recounting many stories of Shen Yuan's ti in middle school.
"Mr. Shen, that thank-you video and the video of Principal Tang's interview, do you need them?" Liu Lan asked.
"Yeah, send them over."
Shen Yuan had just finished speaking, and then suddenly rembered: "Has that special interview been aired?"
This was the strange part; if it had been aired, Old Shen and Ms. Li would definitely know about it. Even if he didn't appear on cara, his na and the foundation's na would still be featured in the interview.
"It hasn't been aired yet; the reporters said it should be broadcast next week. They are still not giving up, they've been trying to gather information about you these past few days. They probably want you to appear on cara," Liu Lan explained.
"No need for to appear on cara, just directly refuse if they ask again. Alright, next item."
Shen Yuan said nonchalantly.
Yu Jifeng stood up, "Mr. Shen, the donations from your friends, Director Jin, and Director Chern, have all been received and accounted for."
"Who are Director Jin and Director Chern?"
"Jin Kangwen and Cherng Xian; last ti you said to appoint them as directors," Yu Jifeng said.
"Oh, Old Jin and Old Chern."
Upon hearing about so directors, Shen Yuan montarily forgot their actual nas. The position sounds important, but it's just a nominal role; they wouldn't interfere with the foundation's operations.
"Next item."
"Mr. Shen, regarding the anti-tumor nano-dicine project in Nanda and the aircraft ground dynamics testing platform project, are we using the original funds of the foundation? Plus, what is the approximate amount of the donation?" Yu Jifeng asked.
Like always, Shen Yuan only looked after the decisions and overall direction, leaving the details and implentation to his subordinates.
"Don't use the original funds, I'll spend an additional $20 million. $15 million for the tumor project, and $5 million for the ground dynamics."
Shen Yuan stated calmly, his tone so casual it seed like he was talking about $200 rather than $20 million.
Yu Jifeng, used to the boss's style, still gulped when hearing about a $20 million donation coming casually: "Alright, Mr. Shen."
The executive team of the foundation, also impressed by Shen Yuan's assertive donation of $20 million, admired him even more.
So of them had recently joined the team, expecting the boss, who established the charity foundation, to be wealthy, but never imagined to this extent.
They initially thought that the $10 million donation to Liya Middle School was ant to quickly accumulate prestige for the foundation before proceeding conservatively.
Yet they never expected that $10 million was just the start, and even more surprising, the boss didn't even touch the original funds and just donated another $20 million!
Looking at the boss who appeared nonchalant on the screen, everyone's respect grew a bit more.
Working at the foundation wasn't highly paid; more projects would an more work and it belonged to the low pay but high work and fatigue category.
But participating in charity work at the foundation, they mostly wanted to contribute their efforts to charity, hence salary wasn't that important.
So, seeing the boss donate so much for charity made him even more pleasing in their eyes.
"Anything else?" Shen Yuan asked.
"I have nothing else."
Yu Jifeng looked at Long Jinghan, who stood up and said: "Mr. Shen, that's all we need to report today, thank you for your ti."
