Chapter 35 Rescue
The interview event came to an end, and the Kirishima development project officially entered the preparation stage.
There have been an overwhelming number of top-level meetings recently. Not only is Liang Weining extremely busy, but the entire secretariat has also been caught in an unprecedented cycle.
No one dares to slack off, because the boss attaches great importance to work efficiency and does not like the same problem being brought up on the table again and again.
As expected, the preliminary cost budget of the project submitted by the Finance Department last week was rejected three times by Mr. Chen. When the Financial Director stepped out of the elevator on the top floor for the fourth time, his steps were unsteady and he looked as if he might die at any time.
At the age of nearly 40, why did he have to do this? Liang Weining felt a little sorry for him and wondered whether he should find time to discuss with the administration department to advance the welfare checkup time for the company's employees.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the heavy door was pushed open, and the project leaders and others took their positions one after another. Five minutes before the meeting started, Liang Weining followed the boss and special assistant into the meeting room.
The giant screen projector in front slowly unfolded. After assistant Vivi debugged all the electronic equipment, she nodded to the little boss and quickly evacuated the scene.
The executives sat upright, no one talked privately, and no one dared to show their presence.
The man at the top had a normal expression on his face, with no obvious emotion, but he was wearing a black shirt and trousers. His dark-toned attire made the aura within a ten-meter radius sink. Sometimes, the more this kind of seemingly silent but ever-present pressure is, the more likely it is to make people feel a sense of physical urgency.
Fortunately, the meeting went smoothly.
The first phase plan of the Lianwu Island project has been finalized. Everything has been settled. Whether neutral or opposed, all voices are invalid. Thinking back on what happened during this period, Liang Weining could not hide his shock.
From the auction to now, in just less than a month, every step has been almost flawless. It turns out that this is the "birthday gift" that Chen Jingyuan prepared for the chairman.
Just like that high-level meeting, although it seemed to have no results, it was actually the result that Chen Jingyuan wanted most.
Vice President Gao is the chairman's man, but he is in a sensitive "guilty stage" due to investment mistakes. In order to protect himself, he had no choice that day, because this time, even the chairman could not save him.
But Chen Jingyuan entrusted such an important matter to a secretary. What if she chose the wrong person or disrupted his plan?
As for this interview, if she is slow-witted and fails to change the time and place in time, then the chances of the three words "Lianwu Island" taking advantage of the wind and topping the financial weekly magazine would probably be very small.
From beginning to end, Chen Jingyuan never interfered with any of her decisions.
The chess game is full of unexpected events, but that leisurely hand can grasp every randomly appearing chess piece and make plans.
What kind of growing environment can forge such shrewdness and state of mind?
It turns out that this is what the outside world really thinks of 'Mr. Chen'.
Ten minutes before the end of the meeting, the 3D modeling diagram of the first phase of the project was presented in high definition on the projection screen.
The green model was displayed simultaneously on the computer in front of Chen Jingyuan. It was exquisitely designed and could explore every functional area of the ecological zone in 360 degrees without blind spots.
The bird's-eye view is gorgeous and eye-catching; this is Liang Weining's most intuitive feeling after watching it.
But that's about it.
Among this group of people, who have worked and followed Mr. Chen for many years, only a few can fully understand Mr. Chen's thoughts today.
Sure enough, not long after the model was released, the man at the top asked calmly, "How much area do you plan to reserve for the ecological waters bordering the southwest corner?"
The most basic planning data was forgotten to be marked. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the projectionist, because it was just an early prototype and was only for the boss to see for his own pleasure.
As a result, I was stumped by the boss's question right at the beginning.
The executive exited the model interface and planned to return to the homepage to check the specific area of the water location mentioned by Chen Jingyuan.
I don't know if it was due to nervousness or mistake, but I clicked the wrong button to update the modeling system. The upgrade speed was slow and the boss had to wait at least another five minutes.
There were clearly more than a dozen people sitting in the meeting room, but the entire meeting room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The male executive, who was calm at first, now had stiff facial muscles.
Just as everyone was staring at the progress bar moving bit by bit, a girl's straightforward voice was heard from an inconspicuous corner beside the conference table, "The southwestern waters are preliminarily divided into 1268.73 acres. The specific actual landing area will have to wait for the survey team to return from Lianwu Island and discuss with geographical design experts before it can be finalized." Secretary Liang came to the rescue in time.
As everyone held their breath, they saw Mr. Chen slowly lower his gaze over there and asked in a low voice, "Where did the data come from?"
Secretary Liang explained calmly, "Before the meeting, Director Yao made a backup on my computer just to be on the safe side."
The situation was resolved.
After hearing this, Director Yao came alive instantly.
Not only did I help him out, I also gave him a way out and gave him all the credit.
The director of the trade department was not lying to me. Secretary Liang is truly an angel.
There was no backup at all. Apart from the meeting minutes, there was no trace of any data in Liang Weining's computer.
She just had a slightly better memory. She was attending a meeting on the plane and overheard the expert group mention it, so she was forced to write it down.
Liang Weining's memory of numbers is not voluntary, but rather an uncontrollable body instinct.
In the doctor's words, the probability of this happening is rare, only one in millions, so she should cherish it.
What's the point of cherishing it? She just feels very tired.
After the meeting, Chen Jingyuan stood up, buttoned up his suit, and said in a low voice, "Come to my office."
"Okay." Secretary Liang nodded meekly.
Before leaving the meeting room, Director Yao came over to thank her with shame.
Liang Weining only smiled professionally, "It's just a small favor, Director Yao, don't take it to heart."
The latter kept saying yes, with rare sincerity in his courtesy. It seems that saving someone from danger is indeed more likely to make people grateful than adding icing on the cake.
After returning to the secretary's office, I went to the office without having time to organize the meeting minutes.
Chen Jingyuan was sitting on the sofa browsing project documents, while Xu Zhou was reporting to him about the upcoming business schedule.
After lunch with partners at noon, there was a charity dinner at 6pm on the west bank of Victoria Harbour.
You must bring a female companion when attending.
There is no doubt that this task fell on Liang Weining, the chief secretary.
Chen Jingyuan asked her if she had any objections, and she shook her head, "No, everything is up to Mr. Chen."
He looked so loyal, as if he would be willing to sell her off.
Just now in the meeting, she blatantly lied to excuse someone else.
Although the boss hasn't seen through it, it doesn't mean that he can go further.
Liang Weining is totally OK with attending the dinner. She will definitely play the role of Mr. Chen's female companion seriously tonight and not embarrass her boss.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, she will set off to an offline brand store. The dress and makeup for formal occasions can only be designed by professionals.
Taking the elevator to the underground first floor, the extended Pullman was quietly parked in the special parking space. Liang Weining paused for a moment, thinking that at this time, shouldn't the boss still be socializing?
The second update is around 8pm.
