Chapter 168 [Still Being Sidelined]

Wang Tichuan also echoed the comments, but with a hint of embarrassment on his face. It seemed that he was not used to this style of work.

Li Wendi waved his hand, "These are just small things. The next big thing will come."

"Ti Chuan, the situation of Zhongyu Real Estate is a bit complicated. The entire company is made up of Cai Ziming's confidants. Cai Ziming's attitude just now has been very clear. He will definitely make things difficult for you. Do you have the confidence to handle it?"

Wang Tichuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I have already started to transfer a few people from Changxin Real Estate and have also found many of my former colleagues. They are all willing to come and help. We can basically control those important departments within a month."

"Okay, just keep it in mind. When necessary, you can announce a 2% salary increase to the entire company." Li Wendi planned to focus on training Wang Tichuan.

Wang Tichuan was stunned for a moment. "Boss, should we bring this up with the board of directors?"

"No need. I'll make the decision on this matter." Li Wendi believed that he needed to show his attitude the first time and to establish his authority the second time, otherwise the old servants on the board of directors would think he was a soft persimmon.

The three of them continued to discuss the personnel transfer issues of China Entertainment Real Estate Company and reminded Wang Tichuan to pay attention to some details and key points.

Since the weather changes are somewhat sudden, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, it is naturally a challenge for the elderly family members who are in poor health.

He Zefeng fell ill again because of this. According to He Qijun, the reason was bronchitis. He had undergone surgery, but his condition did not improve.

Everyone in a big family has their own ulterior motives. They are not good at starting a business, but they are good at infighting.

He Zhongmou, the third son of the He Zefeng family, upon hearing that his father was seriously ill again, his first reaction was not to find a good doctor for treatment, but to seize power and take over more of the family business.

So He Qijun was faced with a dilemma. He Zhongmou, relying on his status as an elder and some tricks behind the scenes, kept cleaning out He Qijun's cronies. Now it was the turn of He Qijun's secretary. You can imagine how bad the situation was.

"In a while, I will be just a puppet in Yuanhe Newspaper. All the employees will pretend to obey me but secretly disobey me, and it will be difficult to get anything done." He Qijun complained to Li Wendi, unable to hide her disappointed look.

Li Wendi did not comfort He Qijun, but smiled and said, "You are too kind. Everyone can see what your uncle did. It is not a good idea for you to tolerate everything. Besides, the employees are also human beings. If the boss can't keep them, they will definitely think about changing jobs."

He Qijun naturally understood this truth, but the He family's teaching of respecting seniority was already engraved in her mind, and she didn't want to disappoint He Zefeng, so she created the current situation.

Seeing the embarrassment on He Qijun's face, Li Wendi didn't think it was necessary to correct it, so he smiled and said, "You are still the boss of the Qinian Newspaper. You have such a smooth way out. There is nothing to lose. If you want to take back the Yuanhe Newspaper, I can help you achieve it."

"Confident women are the most beautiful. Come on, smile for me."

He Qijun tilted her head, but could not avoid Li Wendi's "dirty hands". Li Wendi pinched her face and made her smile ugly. At this time, He Qijun smiled shyly, "It's so ugly in public."

Li Wendi let go of her hand and smiled, "What's so embarrassing about it? We are a serious boyfriend and girlfriend, and we are not something that can be hidden from the public."

"Don't pinch my face in the future. It's already red." He Qijun pouted, her movements a little awkward, and she looked like a spoiled child.

"No!" Li Wendi shook his head and smiled, "This is my patent. I cannot give up this right."

Suddenly, He Qijun turned her head to look at the table of guests next to the aisle and asked Li Wendi, "Do you know them? It seems like they have been looking at you."

Li Wendi followed his gaze and saw Huang Lixin standing next to him. The woman with her should be a friend. He did not answer He Qijun immediately. Instead, he thought for more than ten seconds and said, "I guess we know each other. The lady who smiled at us is Huang Lixin. She had an interview for the cover girl position at the Qinian Newspaper before."

He Qijun nodded, feeling something was a little strange, but Li Wendi's reaction was normal and it didn't seem like there was any special relationship between them.

Li Wendi laughed and pointed out, "You don't think I have any relationship with Huang Lixin, do you?"

He Qijun was stunned. She didn't expect Li Wendi to point out the matter directly. The strange feeling disappeared instantly.

"No, I just thought you knew each other." He Qijun said. "Zhao Xi also knows about this. If you still don't believe it, we can go and say hello. You can ask her." Li Wendi leaned over and suggested in a low voice.

He Qijun held Li Wendi who was about to stand up, shook her head and said, "No, no, it will be so embarrassing later!"

Li Wendi also knew He Qijun's personality well. Huang Lixin would not say much because Li Wendi had warned her many times. As for whether it was a coincidence today, Li Wendi would of course "interrogate" Huang Lixin personally.

"I still don't want to leave Yuanhe Newspaper, and I don't want to hurt my third uncle." He Qijun quickly changed the subject.

"It just so happens that I have a way to make your third uncle leave Yuanhe Newspaper. However, you have to win over some of the employees first. Otherwise, even if your third uncle leaves, he can still remotely control the newspaper." Li Wendi said with a smile.

"What method?" He Qijun suddenly became interested.

"I heard that your third uncle is very interested in the derivatives of the Qinian Newspaper," Li Wendi then revealed the plan.

"Do you want Yuanhe Newspaper to copy the derivatives of Qinian Newspaper and make your third uncle make a mistake? What if grandpa finds out?" He Qijun was interrupted by Li Wendi before she finished her words. "Do you think your grandfather doesn't know that your third uncle has seized power in Yuanhe Newspaper?"

"Since your grandfather knew, why did he condone it? This is 'survival of the fittest'. It is the only way for the family to inherit and carry forward."

"Okay, then let's do as you plan, but I don't want to destroy the Yuanhe Newspaper. It's my grandfather's hard work." He Qijun sighed.

"Don't worry, I will know how to control the situation." Li Wendi smiled faintly. The members of a large family are all afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, so they have the character of being able to defend but not to break through.

After finishing his meal, Li Wendi was not in a hurry to look for Huang Lixin, fearing that he would give Huang Lixin the illusion that he was afraid of you reporting him. So he decided to wait until the matter calmed down before warning Huang Lixin.

An apartment house

He Zhongmou and his two sons sat on the sofa, each holding a glass of red wine in their hands, beautiful songs floated from the gramophone, and the decoration of the living room had a unique flavor.

"Grandpa is seriously ill again. It's hard to say whether he can survive this time." The eldest son He Yongjian looked quite solemn.

The youngest son, He Yonglin, said, "Even if he can make it, he won't have as much energy as before, which means that grandpa can't take care of so many things, so we can just take more of the property."

"Okay, your grandfather is a lucky man, and everything will be fine. But what Alin said makes sense. We can make more plans and acquire more assets at this time." He Zhongmou was a little annoyed, and when he saw his two sons arguing, he started to scold them.

"The sales volume of magazines of Qinian Newspaper is far higher than ours now. Should we find a way to make back our losses?" He Yonglin glanced at his brother He Yongjian, seeming a little provocative.

It seems that the relationship between He Zhongmou's two sons is not very harmonious, and there is malicious competition.

"If you have any solution, just tell me directly. Don't make me guess." He Zhongmou saw through He Yonglin's show-off and said bluntly.

"'NO!' magazine has derivatives, and I heard it's making a lot of money. We can sell those cards at a low price and make back the lost profits." He Yonglin smiled proudly.

He Yongjian frowned and said, "This is plagiarism. If it is discovered, you will most likely face prosecution."

"What are you afraid of? The bold ones will die of overeating, while the timid ones will die of starvation! Who among those who work in real estate and financial lending doesn't make money on the edge of a knife?" He Yonglin sneered, "Qinian Newspaper is He Qijun's property. She won't sue us. If she does, it will be a loss of face for the He family, and she won't be able to get past Grandpa."

"Alin is right. While your grandfather is still alive, we should make as much money as possible. If there are any problems in the future, I will personally take action." He Zhongmou also believed that he could defeat He Qijun.

Seeing that He Zhongmou said so, He Yongjian couldn't continue to argue with him, so he had to help.

So the father and his two sons began to discuss the aspects that they were responsible for.
