Chapter 23
Who Are You?
The President looked at Ye Wan, “Ye Wan, you, you, you, you, how did you do it?”
At this moment, it was as if he had seen a miracle. Even the usually calm President was excited.
Actually, the President did not want to know the answer. No matter what, he was too satisfied with this result!
“Hm?”
What was this?
Li Jiayi, who was beside him, looked at the President. He did not know what had happened when he saw the President go from sadness to joy. Then, he came over and looked at the amount on the contract. He was stunned.
This!
They had renewed the rent at zero yuan!
What the f*ck!
This result was definitely beyond his expectations!
It simply caught him off guard!
Could Ye Wan do this?
Seeing how happy the President was, Li Jiayi knew that the President had entrusted Ye Wan with a heavy responsibility to begin with and treated him only decently. Once this happened, he would have even less say in the entire company.
Then, he remembered what his friend from his hometown had told him last night. They said that he would talk to the supervisor today.
At that moment.
Li Jiayi frowned. Then, he laughed out loud and said, “President, look, what did I say just now! You shouldn’t be anxious. This matter will definitely be resolved smoothly. My friend from my hometown said that he would talk to the supervisor yesterday. It seems that my old friend is quite awesome!”
Li Jiayi scratched his head and looked embarrassed to mention it. He said, “Yesterday, he only said that he would try his best to deal with it. I never expected that he would give me such a big surprise. He can actually talk about rent and contract renewal. I’m afraid I owe him a big favor this time!”
The President and Ye Wan were stunned.
Ye Wan frowned and said, “Vice President Li, what do you mean? Do you mean that I worked hard to sign the contract, or that you worked hard to do so?”
Ye Wan wasn’t a fool. How could she not see such an obvious attempt to steal the credit?
However, wasn’t it a little shameless to snatch it so openly while she was still here?
Li Jiayi glanced at her and sneered. “Vice President Ye, can’t I not take the company’s matters to heart just because I didn’t take over this job? Do you still have any sense of collective honor and belonging to the company?!”
When the President heard this, he nodded silently. He felt that what Li Jiayi said made sense and immediately had an epiphany.
Even if the contract was handed over to Ye Wan, as the company’s Vice President, Li Jiayi still had to do his best for the company’s survival.
This was the demeanor of a good employee and a good leader.
The President immediately thought highly of Li Jiayi. This was what a good leader looked like!
“Don’t worry, Vice President Li. You’ve done a good job this time. The company will definitely not treat you badly! We’ll discuss the bonus at the company meeting. As for me, I’ll give you some rewards in private!” The President’s mind was spinning quickly as he announced the praise for Li Jiayi.
“However, the most important thing now is to build a good relationship with Huaxing Plaza! How about this? Call the supervisor of Huaxing Plaza now and ask him out for dinner tonight. You can decide on the venue. The price is not a problem!”
The President made a prompt decision.
It was better to rely on oneself than on others.
He couldn’t possibly ask for help every time he renewed the contract in the future, right?
He might as well take this opportunity to have a meal and rope in some connections. Wouldn’t it be easier to communicate in the future?
Li Jiayi couldn’t wait for this to happen!
He also wanted to take this opportunity to rope in the supervisor of Huaxing Plaza.
Meanwhile, Li Jiayi didn’t believe that Ye Wan was so shameless. After all, Ye Wan’s nervousness when she went out just now was real, so Huaxing Plaza must have thought highly of the strength of Southeast Securities. Coupled with the credit of the people from his hometown, only then did Huaxing Plaza make such a big concession.
In that case, he had to show his face at the right time!
Li Jiayi simply called Huaxing Plaza on the spot. In order to let the President understand it better, he chose to turn on the speaker.
The call was transferred several times before it finally reached the supervisor.
“Hello, who is this?” The supervisor’s gentle voice sounded with a hint of authority.
Li Jiayi coughed lightly. “Supervisor, I’m here to thank you! I didn’t expect you to give my old friend from my hometown so much face and actually give Southeast Securities a rent-free agreement! I want to treat you to a meal tonight. I wonder if you’re willing to give me some face?”
He spoke extremely politely.
The supervisor was obviously stunned. “What old friend? Who are you?”
Li Jiayi was a little embarrassed and quickly replied, “Look at me, I forgot to introduce myself! I’m the Vice President of Southeast Securities, Li Jiayi. I asked a friend to contact you previously…”
“Li Jiayi? I’ve never heard of him!” The supervisor simply interrupted him with a hint of impatience.
What kind of Tom, Dick, and Harry was this? Why did his secretary randomly pick up the call?!
“Could it be that you didn’t give us a rent-free agreement because of me? My old friend said that he would tell you in my name!” Li Jiayi’s face turned red when he heard the supervisor’s words on the phone.
He had already bragged about himself. If he did not turn back now, he would definitely lose points with the President!
When the supervisor heard Li Jiayi’s words, he was so angry that he laughed. “Your name? Who are you?! Not to mention a small Vice President like you, even if your President came personally, he would still be embarrassed! There are so many industries in Huaxing Plaza. I’m afraid no one would dare to say such a thing, right? Besides, what’s the use of telling me? I’m just working for our boss.”
“Do I still dare to have that much power? I’m afraid that if I have that much power, I won’t be far from being chased out of Huaxing Plaza.”
As the supervisor of Huaxing Plaza, the only thing he had to take care of was his boss’s face.
He would do whatever his boss said!
As for the others, they were not worthy at all!
So what if it was Southeast Securities? Even if the President came, he would still not care.
A Vice President dared to boast shamelessly that he had found someone to pull strings. He was really throwing their face away!
The supervisor couldn’t help but sneer. “The reason why I called just now was because my secretary saw that it was a call from Southeast Securities and thought that it was from Miss Ye. It looks like I have to ask in the future to prevent random people from calling.”
This was an unrelated person!
These words stunned Li Jiayi.
He now wished he could bury his head in the sand.
The supervisor’s meaning was very clear. He did not give Li Jiayi’s friend a face at all, let alone put him in his eyes.
That was true. After all, he was the supervisor of Huaxing Plaza. Only the boss of Huaxing Plaza was of a higher status than him. As for the others, they were just tenants. He was the one collecting rent. Who dared to shout at him?
Also.
Miss Ye?
Ye Wan?
Li Jiayi and the President looked at Ye Wan at the same time.
How was this possible? Ye Wan had never mentioned that she had connections with Huaxing Plaza!
“We waived the rent and renewed the contract because Miss Ye Wan is a friend of our boss. All of this was instructed by our boss. Only Miss Ye Wan can negotiate with me. Other people might not even renew the contract, let alone waive the rent!”
The supervisor’s words were powerful and resounding. The President and Li Jiayi were speechless.
With that, the supervisor hung up.
If renewing the contract was that simple, they wouldn’t be walking around the office so aimlessly.
Even a deaf person could hear the admiration and respect the supervisor had for Ye Wan.
It turned out that Ye Wan was the nameless big shot. The supervisor only gave such a good offer because of Ye Wan.
The President wanted to slap himself!
He had been deceived by Li Jiayi!
This bastard. Wasn’t this a scam?!
Didn’t the way he acted just now hurt Ye Wan?
Moreover, what important news did he just hear?
Was Ye Wan friends with the boss of Huaxing Plaza?
“Ye Wan, you, you’re already friends with the boss of Huaxing Plaza? You didn’t tell me before, causing me to be on tenterhooks. What you did was wrong. I have to criticize you.”
Although the President was criticizing Ye Wan, his face was full of joy and even had a hint of flattery. After all, just the Huaxing Plaza alone was worth tens of billions. The people who owned this place were top-notch officials!
Ye Wan was confused.
I…
She really didn’t know the boss of Huaxing Plaza!
Trust me!
“Ye Wan, the company has decided to give you a few spots in the management of the new fund. You’re the pillar of the company. Oh right, Ye Wan, are you free at noon? Shall I treat you to a meal?”
The President didn’t wait for Ye Wan to speak and continued.
When Ye Wan heard the President’s words, she wanted to say something but hesitated. Then, she coughed a few times and her voice became serious. “President, actually, I’m indeed good friends with the boss of Huaxing Plaza. I was too embarrassed to mention this kind of relationship before. I’ve made you worry.”
After Ye Wan finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows. It would be a waste not to brag.
“Hahaha, you have to tell me about these things in advance in the future. Otherwise, I’ll really be unhappy.”
The President instantly laughed out loud and spoke to Ye Wan.
Meanwhile, Li Jiayi almost fainted when he heard that. F*ck, Ye Wan knew the boss of Huaxing Plaza? Why didn’t she say so earlier? Was she setting him up?
“President, didn’t you say that I was in charge of a few of those new funds?” Li Jiayi was also anxious and quickly asked.
“Oh, oh, Little Li, you haven’t left yet. I’m sorry for neglecting you.” The President patted his shoulder. “I think you still need to train. How about this? Put aside your position as the Vice President and learn more from Ye Wan. From tomorrow onwards, you’ll be Vice President Ye’s assistant. Watch and learn more.”
“If you have no objections, go to the HR department and settle the procedures,” said the President with a smile.
Li Jiayi was speechless. Assistant?
Was he going to be Ye Wan’s assistant?
What the f*ck!
Li Jiayi was simply furious, but what could he do? How could he dare to do anything!
Would he dare to leave?!
How dare he!
At that moment, he could only stand there in a daze.
Meanwhile, the President looked at Ye Wan. “Vice President Ye, let’s go. I happen to think that your Vice President’s office is too small. This time, we can merge the two Vice President’s offices. I’ll accompany you to see how the arrangements are arranged. We’ll settle it today, and we can start renovating tomorrow.”
“Okay, thank you, President.” Ye Wan thanked him. Although she was confused, she was still very straightforward.
“You’re too polite. I’ll still ask you to take care of me in the future.”
The President quickly waved his hand.
