Because Mu Lingshan didn't close the door when she left, even though Chu Ge hadn't left the room, he heard Chu Shiyao's two sentences clearly and couldn't help but burst into laughter, almost choking on his cigarette.
Without needing to look, he could completely imagine that Mu Lingshan's expression must be quite remarkable right now.
After stubbing out the cigarette in the ashtray, just as Chu Ge was about to close the door, his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the number; it was from Qin Ruojing.
"Chairman, what are your instructions?"
"Co to my office. I've prepared all the materials regarding Tianqing Company. Co have a look to see if there's any issue. If everything's okay, familiarize yourself with them. Once the recruitnt advertisents and posters are ready, you can contact the schools for the recruitnt fair."
Although Chu Ge thought that Qin Ruojing's nature was a bit too hasty, he didn't say much, just replied with a hint of helplessness and hung up the phone, heading straight out the door.
"I wonder what these two won would talk about?"
Glancing at Chu Shiyao's apartnt door in the hallway, Chu Ge muttered a sentence to himself, then went downstairs and drove the Maserati to Qin Ruojing's office in the Tianjiao Building.
It must be said, Qin Ruojing's efficiency was truly high. All the materials concerning Tianqing Company were already sorted and neatly prepared in a folder on her desk.
"All the materials are here, take a look."
Qin Ruojing, sitting behind the desk, only gave Chu Ge a glance before directing her attention back to the computer screen, looking completely absorbed.
Looking at Qin Ruojing, Chu Ge thought to himself, "workaholic," then took the materials and sat on the sofa, flipping through them page by page.
After over half an hour, Chu Ge had roughly gone through the materials and was about to ask Qin Ruojing so questions regarding them when there was a "knock, knock, knock" on the door.
Before Qin Ruojing could speak, a man in his forties, wearing a shirt and trousers, with gleaming hair, slightly overweight, and looking sowhat displeased, pushed open the door and strode in.
"Chairman."
Liu Dong entered, first glancing at Chu Ge on the sofa. His already unfriendly gaze grew even more hostile before he turned to Qin Ruojing and greeted her.
"Director Liu, is there sothing you need?"
Originally, Chu Ge was a bit puzzled by the way this person looked at him, as if he owed him money. Hearing Qin Ruojing call him Director Liu, he couldn't help but suddenly understand.
If he guessed correctly, this Director Liu, combined with his unfriendly deanor, should be that Li Youcheng's uncle.
Liu Dong strode over to the sofa and sat down heavily, giving Chu Ge a sidelong glance before saying unequivocally, "Step outside for a mont, I have sothing to discuss with the Chairman."
Chu Ge smiled slightly and was about to nod and leave when Qin Ruojing's voice ca before him.
"Director Liu, whatever you have to say, say it here. Secretary Chu is my right-hand man; his presence here is not inconvenient."
Hearing Qin Ruojing say this, Chu Ge felt a bit helpless. He knew that Qin Ruojing was trying to support him, but he felt it wasn't necessary; he wasn't interested in engaging with these company high-ups anyway.
The sa sentence in Liu Dong's ears, however, made his expression change slightly. If this had happened to one of Qin Ruojing's previous secretaries, she surely wouldn't have said such a thing.
What is this? Showing an attitude? Could it be that there's sothing unusual between Qin Ruojing and her secretary?
Liu Dong kept a neutral facade, calculating silently, while Qin Ruojing continued, "Secretary Chu, please get Director Liu a glass of water."
Chu Ge got a glass of water for Liu Dong, then casually picked up the Tianqing Company materials and returned to his desk.
Glancing at Chu Ge's back, Liu Dong focused on Qin Ruojing, "Chairman, I ca today to discuss Li Youcheng's placent. Since you think he's not suitable for the Deputy Director position of Tianjiao Film and Television Administration Departnt, what role do you think he fits?"
Hearing this, Chu Ge couldn't help feeling a bit cynical. This Liu Dong clearly ca to back up his nephew, or rather, to express dissatisfaction and show off to Qin Ruojing.
After all, Liu Dong is a company director. As far as he's concerned, it's a trivial matter to arrange a job for his nephew; there's no need to consult Qin Ruojing.
With a slight smile, Qin Ruojing didn't answer but instead asked, "Director Liu, what do you think?"
Liu Dong didn't expect Qin Ruojing to throw the ball back to him, silently cursing but saying, "Chairman, I rember that the Head of the Advertising Departnt at Xiu Lin Fashion Co., Ltd. resigned due to illness a few days ago?"
Hearing Liu Dong say this, Chu Ge couldn't help but shake his head internally. This guy was blatantly asking for too much, with a clear intent to intimidate. Does he really think that Tianjiao Group is his family business?
If he was just kicked down from a deputy minister position, and now imdiately arranged to a full minister's position, what would that be?
Qin Ruojing looked at Liu Dong for a few seconds before she slightly smiled and said, "Director Liu, logically speaking, since you personally ca to see , I should give you so face. However, I've also seen Li Youcheng's work style. In my opinion, he isn't very suitable for a leadership position."
Liu Dong's right hand holding the paper cup paused slightly, and he frowned, asking, "Then what's the chairman's intention?"
"How about this, Director Liu, if you insist on your idea, it's not impossible. But my suggestion is, it's best for him to start from the grassroots level in sales or business; it should be very helpful in honing his character."
Liu Dong completely frowned, placing the paper cup with a "thud" on the coffee table, causing the water to spill all over.
Without even looking at the water on the coffee table, Liu Dong squinted his eyes, stood up from the sofa, and walked toward Qin Ruojing's desk.
"Chairman, is this your decision? I, Liu Dong, lowered my face to discuss with you, and you won't even give this little bit of face?"
Just the fact that Qin Ruojing fired Li Youcheng already made Liu Dong very angry, feeling that Qin Ruojing didn't take him seriously at all. Now that he heard Qin Ruojing actually wanted his nephew to go to the grassroots, he couldn't suppress his rage any longer.
Originally, Qin Ruojing hadn't made a firm decision, planning to let Li Youcheng be a grassroots employee for now. If he could learn a lesson from this and work diligently for a while, she might consider adjusting his position later for Liu Dong's sake.
After all, she is the chairman of the company. If she reassigns Li Youcheng, who was just fired, to a higher position simply because of a few words from Liu Dong, what authority would she have left in the future?
However, seeing Liu Dong's questioning and even provocative attitude now, Qin Ruojing made up her mind — this is how it will be done!
"Yes, this is my decision. If Director Liu has no other matters, please leave."
Facing Liu Dong's aggressive gaze, Qin Ruojing didn't shy away, nodding firmly.
"Qin Ruojing, aren't you being too much? In terms of seniority, I'm a veteran of the Tianjiao Group. In terms of age, I'm over twenty years older than you. Didn't you use to call Uncle Liu? What now? Is it because you think you've grown strong wings? My own nephew can't even make a living in the company? How am I supposed to explain this to my sister?"
Liu Dong's eyes twitched, his hands resting on Qin Ruojing's desk, his body slightly leaning forward, his eyes burning with anger, his tone sharp, even turning from questioning to demanding.
"Director Liu, running a company isn't child's play. Regardless of who, or what position they're in, they should at least possess the corresponding abilities, shouldn't they?"
"You!"
"Also, this is a company, please refer to as Chairman. If Director Liu has nothing else, please feel free to leave."
Facing Liu Dong's furious gaze, Qin Ruojing calmly issued a polite expulsion order and turned her attention back to the computer screen.
"Bang!"
With a heavy slap on the desk, Liu Dong's hand swept across, knocking over a file rack, causing the once neatly stacked docunts to scatter to the ground.
Amidst the fluttering of papers, Liu Dong, with a harsh expression, pointed at Qin Ruojing and said coldly, "Qin Ruojing! What a great show of arrogance! Do you really think Tianjiao Group belongs to you alone!"
"Director Liu, I think the chairman's aning is clear, please mind your emotions."
Seeing that Liu Dong was ready to burn all bridges and possibly do sothing drastic in his rage, Chu Ge couldn't remain silent. Leaving his desk, he approached Liu Dong and spoke calmly.
"Get lost! What do you count as? Is it your place to speak here?"
Liu Dong twisted around furiously, glaring fiercely at Chu Ge, his face contorted.
Chu Ge smiled faintly, "I am the chairman's secretary, responsible for ensuring her safety. It's my job, I hope Director Liu understands."
Liu Dong snorted heavily through his nose, tilted his chin up, squinted his eyes, and arrogantly retorted, "What if I refuse to leave?"
"Then I'll have to escort you out."
While speaking, Chu Ge's face still held a faint smile, his tone remained calm, but his gaze suddenly sharpened, becoming as piercing as a blade for a mont. An intangible yet substantial presence, centered on Chu Ge, instantly filled the office.
Feeling this sudden change in Chu Ge, Liu Dong's heart gave a trendous jolt, and inexplicably, he felt a wave of panic.
When he wanted to say sothing, he suddenly realized that his throat seed to be firmly gripped by an invisible hand, making him unable to utter a single word!
