Lin Qing's heart moved. She originally thought that the wonderful scene at the company gate this morning was a double act that Wen Liang and Yin Yong had discussed long ago. But listening to Wen Liang's tone, could it be that he didn't know about it in advance
If this is true, Wen Liang should have guessed the various connections immediately after seeing the situation on the scene, and then improvised and cooperated with Yin Yong to perform a good show that had not been rehearsed. Such scheming and cunning are too scary!
"No one is here, it's me..." Yin Yong is usually very arrogant and his words and actions are full of self-confidence and strength. He rarely lacks confidence like he does at this moment.
Wen Liang interrupted him and said calmly: "Boss Yin, I know you, you probably can't think of such a way."
There was a brief silence on the balcony. Lin Qing suddenly felt nervous, as if she could feel the pressure that Yin Yong was under when facing Wen Liang.
There was no reason for this. After all, she was an experienced worker and had met many CEOs and directors of well-known companies. Some were gentle and polite, while others had hot tempers. When they got angry, they could really scare people to death. But she had never encountered such a situation. Not only was there a wall between them, but something that had nothing to do with her could make her feel so empathetic.
"Mr. Wen, I want to apologize to you. I have been focusing all my energy on the research and development of ICMM01 during this period, and I have not fulfilled my duties as the general manager in managing the company. This has also caused some confusion in the management's cognition, resulting in Chuangtu's poor progress in subsequent market development..."
Yin Yong also had a hard time. When he found out, it was too late. Chen Yongqing's people occupied almost all important departments. His orders were sometimes not implemented thoroughly. Some people even pretended to obey but actually disobeyed, quit their jobs in front of him, and said strange things behind his back, which greatly damaged his prestige. But for the sake of the overall situation, or to survive this difficult period at the beginning, Yin Yong couldn't be too concerned with Chen Yongqing, but ignoring him was even worse. He didn't want to complain to Wen Liang in person, so he adopted the suggestion of a subordinate and chose the day when Wen Liang was inspecting to teach Chen Yongqing a little lesson.
Lin Qing was shocked. With Yin Yong's character, he was able to say such a humble and submissive word, which was almost his bottom line. Wen Liang, who was so powerful, would definitely stop while he was ahead, say a few words of comfort, and let the matter go. After all, Yin Yong was too important to Chuangtu. From another perspective, his actions this morning also showed enough office wisdom. He remained calm and stopped at the right time, which was not too much.
Wen Liang still spoke in that calm voice, interrupting Yin Yong's reflection again and saying, "I'm asking you, who is that person?"
Yin Yong's voice suddenly stopped, and the silence on the balcony lasted several times longer than before. Just when Lin Qing thought Yin Yong would walk away, she heard him whisper, "It's Gong Lixing from the R&D department."
Lin Qing frowned, and all the information about this person immediately appeared in his mind: Gong Lixing, male, 25 years old, a technical backbone who followed Jiang Yu from Shangning Hi-Tech, he is quite cunning, likes to joke, and likes to scheme. However, he should be Chen Yongqing's talent on the surface, but he is actually close to Yin Yong in secret. You really can't underestimate anyone.
Wen Liang didn't even ask about Gong Lixing's position in the R&D department, and said coldly: "Notify the Human Resources Department and let him go today!"
"Boss Wen..." Yin Yong was a little excited and said, "I told you his name because I respect you, but if it causes him to lose his job, who would dare to work with me as the general manager in the future?"
Wen Liang hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll give you face and not pursue it this time, but I won't do it again next time!"
"Thank you, President Wen, thank you, President Wen!" Yin Yong thought that he had to argue with reason to get Wen Liang to change his mind, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. He was immediately grateful and said thank you twice. This was the first time for him.
"Okay," Wen Liang's voice finally had a hint of smile, and he said, "This matter is over, and don't mention it again. You, what can I say? I can trust you to take care of such a big creation, but you can hardly even take care of your own home."
Yin Yong blushed with shame and said, "Boss Wen, I'm sorry to disappoint you..."
"But today you know to lend me to suppress Yongqing, because you haven't returned all your experience in Dawei Company to Hua Yiqiong. You can continue to use Gong Lixing, but don't listen to one side, understand? In addition, don't have any grudges against Yongqing. You stay in the R&D department during this period. The management and operation of the company depends on him. It is reasonable to place a few people in it. In the future, if Chuangtu wants to develop, it still depends on your concerted efforts, including Xi Jingwei. You must work together and form a force. Don't distract me to reconcile the conflicts between you!"
"I understand. Please rest assured, President Wen. This will never happen again."
When Yin Yong was in Dawei Company, Hua Yiqiong, a cold-faced and feared figure, often coaxed and flattered him. No one dared to do the same to Wen Liang. But strangely enough, Yin Yong just obeyed and was willing to be scolded. It can only be said that there is always something to conquer something.
"Go and do your thing. Call Yongqing over. He should be back from the meeting soon."
Of course, Chen Yongqing would not let Wen Liang and Yin Yong stay together for a long time. If it were not for today's meeting, he would not leave Wen Liang's side. After all, the situation of Chuangtu Technology is special. It is not easy to meet the big boss once. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity must be seized. In addition, the scene in the morning made him uneasy, and he was even more restless in the post office. He said hello to a deputy mayor who presided over the meeting and slipped back early before the meeting was halfway through.
When he arrived at the company and asked, he found out that Wen Liang and Yin Yong had talked for a long time in the office. Chen Yongqing didn't say anything, but he was very upset. He went back to the office and made a cup of tea, but it tasted bland.
After hearing Wen Liang's last instructions, Lin Qing hurriedly left the general manager's office and hid in the women's restroom at the stairs for two minutes. She estimated that Yin Yong had already gone there, so she walked out leisurely. Just as she reached the corner and was about to go downstairs, she saw the driver and bodyguard who came with Wen Liang standing in front of her.
Chang Cheng extended his hand politely and said, "Minister Lin, President Wen wants to see you!"
Lin Qing said calmly: "I'll come back later. It seems that President Wen is talking to President Yin."
"Boss Yin has already left. Please, come this way!"
Lin Qing immediately knew that her eavesdropping behavior had been discovered by the other party. A trace of embarrassment flashed across her beautiful eyes, but she still nodded calmly and said, "Okay!"
Wen Liang had already returned from the balcony to the boss chair behind his desk. Chang Cheng walked over and whispered a few words in his ear, then closed the door and left. Wen Liang pointed to the chair in front of the desk and said with a smile, "Sit down. If I had known that Minister Lin was here, I should have given Mr. Yin some face."
Since we are here, we should make the best of it. Although Lin Qing is a woman, she still has the quality of being calm. She exhaled lightly, sat down generously, and said, "I came up to deliver a document to Mr. Yin for signature. I happened to hear you talking on the balcony. I was curious and did not leave. If Mr. Wen is angry, I am willing to accept any punishment. But it is precisely because of this that I have seen Mr. Wen's demeanor. Even someone like Mr. Yin bows to me, so it is worth the trip!"
"What's wrong?" Wen Liang leaned back in his chair, narrowed his eyes, and said, "From your tone, it seems that you are standing up for Mr. Yin?"
"I dare not. I think your handling of the matter was just right. I just can't understand why you are so tolerant of Mr. Chen. When something like this happens, both parties are certainly at fault, but shouldn't Mr. Chen bear most of the responsibility?"
She was referring to the few words Wen Liang used to excuse Chen Yongqing. Wen Liang smiled slightly, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and said, "Oh, you mean Chen Yongqing is too ambitious?"
Lin Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to slap herself a few times. If eavesdropping was excusable, it was unwise to rashly intervene in the fight between the two CEOs. She even asked in front of the big boss, which was extremely stupid. She immediately apologized, "I shouldn't have asked..."
She was secretly puzzled. She was not a person who did not know the seriousness of the matter, but why was she so angry that she spoke without thinking after being provoked by Wen Liang's words
Wen Liang leaned forward, crossed his hands on the table, looked directly into Lin Qing's eyes, and said, "It's not a matter of right or wrong. Let me put it this way. I gave Yin Yong all the power, but Chen Yongqing was able to force him to this point. What does this mean? It means that Yin Yong is not capable enough in some aspects, and Chen Yongqing has more advantages in some aspects. Should I blame the advantages of one person for the disadvantages of another? If an enterprise wants to grow, it needs complementarity, unity, and more competition. Survival of the fittest. Chuangtu will provide all the platforms and elements to realize personal value, but how far you can go depends on yourself. Ambition is never a problem. The problem is whether your ability is enough to support your ambition!"
Lin Qing thought for a moment and said, "What if his ambition has affected the stability of the company to some extent?" "That's what I'm going to do next. It's okay to be ambitious, but you have to choose the right time and the right place to realize it. If you go beyond the limit, I'm sorry, you will pay a certain price."
Chang Cheng opened the door and said, "Mr. Chen is here."
Wen Liang glanced at Lin Qing, then suddenly pointed to the balcony and said, "Go over there and see how I tolerate Mr. Chen."
Lin Qing looked up in surprise. Chen Yongqing was almost at the door. She had no time to ask Wen Liang why, so she had to get up and hide on the balcony.
Chen Yongqing walked in and secretly glanced at Wen Liang's face, then stood cautiously in front of the desk, not even daring to sit down, and said with a smile: "Boss Wen, I, I..."
Before he could even finish the word "I", Wen Liang slammed the table and angrily said, "Chen Yongqing, what do you want to do? I asked you to be in charge of the daily management of the company, and this is how you manage it for me? Setting traps, laying nails, ambushing, and pulling the leg. Don't you want to be the deputy general manager anymore?"
Chen Yongqing had never seen Wen Liang lose his temper so much before. Cold sweat almost seeped out of his forehead. He said, "Boss Wen, please listen to my explanation. I really don't want to go against Boss Yin. It's just that his attention is all on research and development, but the company needs to establish itself and develop, and all aspects must be taken care of. If I don't care anymore, it will really be a mess..."
"You are confused!"
Wen Liang pointed at his nose and cursed mercilessly: "What does the company's articles of association say? What are the responsibilities of the deputy general manager? Do you know? Assisting in management does not mean you have to seize power. Reporting to the general manager does not mean you have to fire at the general manager."
Lin Qing, who was standing outside the balcony, felt inexplicably amused when hearing this, and almost laughed out loud while covering her mouth. But Chen Yongqing, who was facing Wen Liang's anger, did not feel the same way, and sweat finally fell from his forehead.
"You are short-sighted. Don't you think about how to develop the market in the field of programmable computers without technology as a foundation? Without the market, how can there be a future for Chuangtu and you? Yin Yong put all his energy into research and development. It's not that he is dumber than you and doesn't want to take the power, but he knows that only when IMCC01 is successfully developed can he be qualified to talk about the future. The company has just started, and you are thinking about these bullshit things. Is this all you can do? Didn't you come to Chuangtu from Shangning to create a career with me and build our own communication empire? When Chuangtu Technology stands at the top of the communication industry in the future, the world will be so big, and the departments you are in charge of will be several times larger than the current Chuangtu. Wouldn't it be more fulfilling than fighting internally?"
Chen Yongqing was so ashamed that he kept saying, "President Wen, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
"No, you don't understand yet! You have the ability, qualifications, culture, and talent. You are someone I value very much. Chuangtu cannot do without Yin Yong, nor can it do without you, Chen Yongqing. Don't think that everything will be fine after the successful development of the 01 machine. The 04 machine of Julong Company (that is, after the Post and Telecommunications Industry Corporation successfully developed the HJD04 machine in 1991, the multi-shareholders established Julong Company in 1995 to start market operations), Dawei's 08 machine, Zhongtang's SP0 machine, and Daxing's 10 machine are all eyeing and preparing to go to war with foreign equipment manufacturers. In terms of funds, strength, and background, the strength of the opponents is not weak. If we are not careful, we will be defeated. I am still young, and the worst thing is to start over. Do you, Chen Yongqing, want to start a business again? Even if you have this ambition, can you have such a good opportunity and such a good foundation? Hmm?"
Chen Yongqing was pale and sweating. Wen Liang's words were harsh and unpleasant to the ear, but they woke him up from his obsession with power. He said solemnly, "I will go and apologize to President Yin right now..."
"Apologizing is not enough. Go back and write me a self-examination tonight. There is no limit to the number of words. You must have a deep understanding. Do you hear me?"
Chen Yongqing subconsciously straightened his back and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "I heard it!"
Wen Liang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Go ahead and apologize to President Yin. Then you can ask Jing Wei to come along. We still need to make careful plans on how to open up the market."
After Chen Yongqing left, Lin Qing returned from the balcony, her eyes sparkling. Wen Liang smiled, as if the storm just now was an illusion, and said, "Don't you understand why I want you to stay here?" (To be continued)
