Chapter 826 Zhu Zhe Promoted to Director
After Zhou Chen revealed that he was the owner of the hotel, Zhu Zhe found it hard to believe.
When Zhou Chen said that Zhu Zhe would manage the hotel from now on, Zhu Zhe even thought that the guy had lost his mind.
In response, Zhou Chen directly called the hotel manager. Since Zhu Zhe didn't believe him, it was time to show her his capabilities.
"Mr. Zhang, this is Zhou Chen. I'm currently in room 203 of your hotel. Do you have time to come over? There are some things I need to discuss with you."
Seeing Zhou Chen on the phone, Zhu Zhe didn't dare to breathe loudly. Could the "General Manager Zhang" that Zhou Chen mentioned be their hotel's general manager?
Zhou Chen's attitude doesn't seem fake. Could he really be the owner of this hotel?
After hanging up the phone, Zhu Zhe wanted to come over and ask about the other party's identity, but Zhou Chen made a shushing gesture. Instead of asking questions, he thought, "You might as well use the facts. I don't want to waste my breath."
Seeing that Zhou Chen didn't want to talk, Zhu Zhe immediately went to the door to wait. She would know whether Zhou Chen's words were true just by seeing if President Zhang would come over in a while.
As an employee of this hotel, it would be better for her to go to the entrance to greet General Manager Zhang; she was perceptive enough to understand that.
Zhou Chen was speechless. He had already said that he would hand over the management of the hotel to Zhu Zhe, so why did she still have to put on such a humble posture?
Zhu Zhe's face quickly lit up with joy, because President Zhang had actually come over. This meant that Zhou Chen had managed to summon President Zhang with just one phone call, so it seemed that what he said wasn't a lie.
If Zhou Chen only knew Zhu Zhe's thoughts, he would definitely scold him, saying, "Am I really that untrustworthy to you?"
Hehe, it's not that Zhu Zhe doesn't trust Zhou Chen, but she doesn't believe that Zhou Chen would buy the hotel today just because she complained a few times yesterday. Does she really have to doubt that she has that much charm?
Was Zhou Chen being too good to her? So good that Zhu Zhe found it hard to believe, making her feel like it was all a dream.
Zhu Zhe, who has a lot of inner monologues, clearly misunderstood and then fell into self-pity. Zhou Chen knew what she was thinking but wouldn't step in to explain. Let you be moved, I suppose.
"Hello Mr. Zhang, Zhou Chen, the person you are looking for, is here."
Seeing Zhu Zhe standing at the door opening it for him, President Zhang was also a little surprised, wondering why she was with Zhou Chen.
You know, not long ago, President Zhang was planning to promote Zhu Zhe. Could it be that she knows Zhou Chen?
"Mr. Zhou, you've finally shown up! Some time ago, our chairman said he was giving the international hotel in Shanghai to a Mr. Zhou Chen and told me to be ready to hand it over to you at any time. I didn't expect to be kept waiting until now. What kind of boss is so indifferent to his own hotel?"
Mr. Zhang and Zhou Chen exchanged pleasantries, and Zhou Chen replied with a smile, "I've been so busy lately, I'm sorry to have troubled you to wait so long, Mr. Zhang."
Today I came here specifically to inspect my own businesses, and even deliberately picked on them. I was very satisfied with how the employees handled things, and their attitude was also very good. It seems you manage things quite well.
You should know this Zhu Zhe, right? I'm considering grooming her to take over the hotel after you retire. What's your opinion?
Zhou Chen's words made General Manager Zhang frown. It seemed that Zhu Zhe and Zhou Chen were indeed very close. He didn't expect that Zhou Chen's first visit to the hotel was to promote Zhu Zhe.
"President Zhou has a good eye. Xiao Zhu is very capable. I've been assessing her abilities recently and am preparing to promote her."
I think Xiao Zhu handles issues very well in both the housekeeping and front desk departments; she's a rare talent. Of course, I support Mr. Zhou's suggestion.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhe smiled inwardly; it seemed her promotion was now a sure thing.
"Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Zhang. I will definitely work hard in the future and make sure I won't let you down."
Zhu Zhe also said some polite words to President Zhang, but Zhou Chen coughed, clearly indicating that he had something else to say.
Since he was here to support Zhu Zhe, their relationship naturally had to be revealed. Zhou Chen wanted to let President Zhang know that Zhu Zhe might become the owner of this hotel in the future, so of course he had to take care of her.
It's obviously impossible for Zhu Zhe to replace General Manager Zhang in front of him. Zhu Zhe still needs to hone her skills. What Zhou Chen wants her to replace is Director Wang, Zhu Zhe's immediate supervisor.
"Mr. Zhang, Zhu Zhe is my woman. I hope you will take good care of her in the future. I heard that there is a Director Wang in your hotel who often makes things difficult for her. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, General Manager Zhang looked at Zhu Zhe. He was surprised to find that Zhu Zhe was Zhou Chen's woman. Hearing Zhou Chen's words, he immediately realized that Zhou Chen had come today to stand up for Zhu Zhe.
Zhu Zhe was also a little surprised, and then gently nudged Zhou Chen. Yesterday's words were just a small complaint of his, why did you specifically name Director Wang to cause trouble?
Mr. Zhang tentatively inquired, "The atmosphere in our hotel is very good; there is no bullying of employees or unfair treatment of them."
Of course, if necessary, I will notify headquarters to transfer Director Wang, and Zhu Zhe will take over the position. What do you think?
Haha, as expected of a general manager, he quickly grasped Zhou Chen's intention.
Zhou Chen nodded in agreement, and then suggested that President Zhang take him to the hotel for a look around. The purpose, of course, was to take Zhu Zhe to the hotel to act like a bully.
Zhou Chen wanted all the hotel employees to know that Zhu Zhe could speak to the company's CEO and that she had powerful backers. This would also deter those who wanted to cause trouble for Zhu Zhe.
After all, Zhu Zhe only has a vocational high school education but has become the manager of the room service department. There are quite a few people who want to keep their eyes on this position. At least let them know that Zhu Zhe is not someone they can afford to offend.
Of course, the one with the worst expression was Director Wang. He heard that the hotel's senior management had arrived, and General Manager Zhang was accompanying him on an inspection of the hotel.
Director Wang came over to welcome them immediately, hoping to leave a good impression on the hotel's senior management. However, he was surprised to see the leaders chatting and laughing with Zhu Zhe, who was standing next to them. Clearly, their relationship was quite close.
Even President Zhang had to smile obsequiously. It seemed that Zhu Zhe had really climbed the social ladder. Thinking about his past actions against Zhu Zhe, his face immediately turned ugly.
Director Wang quickly stepped forward to greet Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen only glanced at him twice and did not respond.
These two glances immediately made Director Wang feel guilty. Why did it seem like the leader didn't like him?
I wanted to ask Zhu Zhe, who was standing next to me, what had happened.
Now that Zhu Zhe knew that Director Wang was going to be transferred out of the hotel and that she was going to be promoted to the position of director, she no longer needed to be subservient to Director Wang.
When asked by Director Wang, Zhu Zhe simply replied, "How could I possibly guess what the leader is thinking? Director Wang really overestimates me." He then quickened his pace to catch up with Zhou Chen.
This scene made Director Wang's face even uglier; he could tell from Zhu Zhe's attitude towards him that he felt a sense of crisis.
As expected, Director Wang was right. Two days later, General Manager Zhang called him into his office and informed him that he had been transferred back to headquarters for other arrangements, and that Zhu Zhe would take over the position of hotel director.
The phrase "there are other arrangements" is enough to explain the situation. If I were to be transferred back to headquarters for a promotion, General Manager Zhang wouldn't be treating me this way.
Director Wang was very unhappy about Zhu Zhe replacing him, never expecting that his carefully cultivated subordinate would actually replace him.
