Chapter 84 Would I stoop to their level?
Inside the chairman's office of the group.
"Wenjing, call Manager Li over."
After arriving at the company, Jiang Tiansheng immediately gave instructions to Cheng Wenjing.
"Yes, Chairman."
Cheng Wenjing responded.
Soon, Li Zhiyong, the group's department manager, arrived at Jiang Tiansheng's office.
"Chairman, are you looking for me?"
After knocking on the door, Li Zhiyong entered and stood respectfully in front of Jiang Tiansheng.
"Manager Li, I remember you studied electrical engineering, right?" Jiang Tiansheng asked, looking at Li Zhiyong.
"Yes, Chairman."
Li Zhiyong nodded.
"Just right"
As Jiang Tiansheng spoke, he added, "From now on, you won't need to serve as a manager in any of the group's departments."
"Chairman, did I do something wrong?"
Li Zhiyong panicked upon hearing this.
The benefits at Xinghe Group are excellent, and it's clear to everyone that Xinghe Group took off after the Xinghe Bay project was completed.
"of course not."
Jiang Tiansheng waved his hand slightly and then said, "Manager Li, congratulations on your promotion."
"The group is planning to establish a branch company, Xinghe Power Company..." Jiang Tiansheng explained the plan to Li Zhiyong, and then said, "Now, I am going to appoint you as the general manager of Xinghe Power Company. Are you willing?"
"Yes, of course I'm willing," Li Zhiyong replied hastily.
Just now, he thought he had done something wrong and had been fired by the chairman.
Unexpectedly, I got promoted.
"Thank you for your promotion, Chairman. I will certainly not let you down," Li Zhiyong said earnestly.
Jiang Tiansheng nodded slightly, then instructed Li Zhiyong: "After you go back, prepare a plan for me, including the cost of setting up power lines throughout Hong Kong, and hand it over to me once it's done."
"Yes, Chairman."
Li Zhiyong said with a serious expression.
The two power companies in Hong Kong today are CLP Power Company and Hong Kong Electric Company.
China Power Company – judging from the name, you might think it's a state-owned enterprise, but it's actually a privately owned power company.
Moreover, the owner of this power company is a Jewish man named Kadoorie.
Not to mention Jiang Tiansheng, he never liked Jews in the first place.
With solar power generation technology, he will definitely dominate the entire electricity market in Hong Kong.
For Galaxy Power, there is only one cost: the cost of installing power lines.
Once the power lines are installed, the remaining power generation costs are practically negligible.
At that time, a single price war would be enough to dominate the entire Hong Kong electricity market.
At that time, we'll crush companies like CLP Power and HK Electric.
Once we have completely captured the market, we can raise the price appropriately, but it will never exceed the original price.
"By the way, where's Amei?"
Jiang Tiansheng suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Ruan Mei when he arrived, so he asked Cheng Wenjing.
“Several residents from Xinghewan who were relocated have arrived, and Amei has gone over there,” Cheng Wenjing said.
Hearing Cheng Wenjing say that, Jiang Tiansheng finally remembered.
"Amei, you're working at Xinghe Group now?"
Inside the group's conference room, Fang Ting looked at Ruan Mei and said with a mix of exaggeration and envy.
Back when they lived in Xinghewan, their two families were neighbors.
"Yes."
Ruan Mei nodded, a smile spreading across her face.
"Let me tell you, if it weren't for Miss Ruan, would you still expect to receive compensation?"
A staff member standing nearby snorted and said.
The staff member may seem arrogant, but isn't she just flattering Ruan Mei?
People naturally like to show off in front of those they know well.
Ruan Mei didn't intend to do this, but being complimented was a very prestigious thing.
"Don't say that. We're all neighbors, helping each other out," Ruan Mei said to the staff member next to her, then looked at Fang Ting and asked, "Fang Ting, are you the only one from your Fang family here?"
"No, my eldest brother, eldest sister, and third sister are all here, but they went to the restroom," Fang Ting replied with a smile.
"Alright, I'll process your request later." Ruan Mei said, smiled at Fang Ting, and then went to greet the other neighbors.
Seeing Ruan Mei, she seemed like a completely different person, dressed in a white-collar suit, like an upper-class person.
"Uncle Wu, come here and sign your name, then you can collect your money."
"Ah Mei, thank you so much. I've heard about it. Without you, we wouldn't have gotten so much money."
"Uncle Wu, we're all neighbors, and you've always taken good care of me."
"Third Uncle and Aunt, all you need to do here is sign your name."
“Amei, I was right about you back then. You’ve really made something of yourself now, working for such a big company.”
"Yes, Third Uncle and Aunt, let me tell you, I've always had high hopes for Amei since she was little. She'll definitely amount to something when she grows up."
Ruan Mei kept moving through the crowd, leading her staff to help the neighbors with their affairs.
He kept hearing self-praise in his ears.
Although Ruan Mei didn't say anything, she was very happy inside.
After working for more than an hour, we finally managed to see the neighbors off.
"Amei"
At this moment, Luo Huiling walked over, followed by Fang Zhanbo, Fang Fang, Fang Ting, and Fang Min.
"Aunt Luo, you've arrived."
Ruan Mei's smile remained unchanged upon seeing Luo Huiling.
"I saw you were busy, so I didn't come over." Luo Huiling nodded.
"Sister Mei, you were really amazing just now!" Fang Min looked at Ruan Mei with admiration.
Just now, she watched Ruan Mei move through the crowd, handling things in an orderly manner and directing the others. She felt so proud of her.
"Others praise me, but Xiaomin, you don't need to," Ruan Mei said with a smile, as she stepped forward, touched Fang Min's hair.
As she spoke, Ruan Mei looked at Luo Huiling and said, "Aunt Luo, I'll have someone help you with the compensation and demolition contract."
As Ruan Mei spoke, she said to the staff member next to her, "Print out the contract and check for any errors."
“Okay, Miss Ruan.”
The two staff members nodded, then turned and left.
"Amei, what do you do at the company? Everyone here seems to listen to you." Fang Fang asked Ruan Mei curiously.
"I'm the chairman's secretary," Ruan Mei said with a smile.
"secretary?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhanbo frowned and looked at Ruan Mei, saying, "You're going to be someone else's secretary, that old man isn't trying to take advantage of you, is he?"
"Fang Zhanbo, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mei immediately glared angrily at Fang Zhanbo.
"I'm doing this for your own good. You don't know how treacherous this society is. Who knows what someone is really thinking?" Fang Zhanbo said to himself.
"Shut up, Zhanbo."
Luo Huiling turned around and glared at Fang Zhanbo, then turned to Ruan Mei and explained, "Amei, don't take it personally with Zhanbo. He doesn't have any bad intentions; he's just doing it for your own good."
In fact, Law Wai-ling knows Fong Chin-bo very well.
Despite Fang Zhanbo's past tendency to target Ruan Mei, he actually harbors feelings for her.
Seeing how capable Ruan Mei is and how she got a job at a large corporation, I felt I wasn't good enough for her, which is why I said that.
"Grandma, what do you mean by 'I have no bad intentions' and 'I'm doing this for your own good'?" Just then, a voice came from behind.
"Chairman."
Ruan Mei turned around when she heard the sound, and when she saw that it was Jiang Tiansheng coming over, she hurriedly went over.
Jiang Tiansheng nodded to Ruan Mei, then walked over and looked at Luo Huiling, saying, "Grandma, a person should know their own limitations. What right does she have to gossip about others behind their backs before even meeting them?"
As he spoke, Jiang Tiansheng looked at Fang Zhanbo and said slowly, "As a man, don't you feel ashamed to talk badly about others behind their backs?"
"You and I……"
Fang Zhanbo was speechless.
Indeed, his behavior just now constituted talking badly about someone behind their back, which was extremely despicable.
"Besides, what does that say about Amei? You're insulting her, do you understand?"
As he spoke, Jiang Tiansheng said to the staff member beside him, "Compensate their family according to the normal demolition standards."
"Yes, Chairman."
The staff member standing nearby nodded hurriedly.
Xinghe Group's demolition standards are far higher than the normal market demolition standards.
"Let's go."
After giving his instructions, Jiang Tiansheng said something to Ruan Mei and then turned to leave.
He disliked Fang Zhanbo utterly. If he weren't the main character in the TV series and instead had the protagonist's halo, he would have ruined everyone around him.
"Yes, Chairman."
Ruan Mei responded and then followed Jiang Tiansheng away.
As for Luo Huiling and the Fang family, after what Jiang Tiansheng just said, she understood.
"Chairman, I'm sorry."
Ruan Mei followed behind Jiang Tiansheng until they entered the chairman's office, where she lowered her head and weakly apologized.
"Why apologize?"
Jiang Tiansheng turned around, looked at Ruan Mei, and asked.
“Because they were talking badly about the chairman behind his back…” Ruan Mei was about to say something when Jiang Tiansheng interrupted her.
Do you think I'd stoop to their level?
Jiang Tiansheng looked at Ruan Mei and asked.
Before Ruan Mei could answer, Jiang Tiansheng shook his head and said, "As far as I'm concerned, I don't care what they say. Even if they call me a demon, I don't care."
“No, the chairman is a good person, he’s not…” Ruan Ruanmei hurriedly shook her head.
"unimportant"
Jiang Tiansheng waved his hand and then said, "I'm just a little angry. How did they treat you when they talked to you like that?"
As he spoke, Jiang Tiansheng approached Ruan Mei, gently lifted the hair from her forehead, and smiled, saying, "Although, as the chairman, I do have some thoughts about this delectable little secretary in front of me."
"Chairman..."
Ruan Mei lowered her head, her face slightly flushed, and dared not look at Jiang Tiansheng.
"Okay, let's go to work."
As Jiang Tiansheng spoke, he gently stroked Ruan Mei's cheek and said with a smile.
"I'll head out now, Chairman."
After finishing her sentence, Ruan Mei fled the chairman's office as if she were escaping.
After leaving the office, Ruan Mei leaned against the door, recalling what had just happened inside, her cheeks flushed slightly.
"Amei, what's wrong?"
Cheng Wenjing walked over and looked at Ruan Mei with a puzzled expression.
"Ah, no, it's nothing, I'm going to work now."
