Chapter 225 You Just Want to Take Advantage
In the morning, Tang Xiaoru hosted a meeting and discussed the next project plan.
The new energy exhibition project has been put on the agenda. After the meeting, Tang Xiaoru went to see the chairman again. When she came back, she called Chen Qingrong.
"Chen Qingrong, come with me to meet the official people." Tang Xiaoru said.
"Yes, Director."
Chen Qingrong immediately stood up and followed him out.
Gao Qiang also said to Xiao Yuan, "Old Chen is really favored. The director has to take him with him when he meets with official people. If it were in ancient times, Old Chen would be the most favored eunuch around the emperor."
Xiaoyuan smiled but said nothing.
She thought to herself that Brother Chen and the director were a couple after all, so if the director had any good things to do, would he not take him along?
It’s a pity that Brother Qiang doesn’t understand these.
What foolish mortals.
As for Chen Qingrong, as soon as he got in the car, he asked worriedly, "Xiao Ru, shouldn't you and the deputy director go together to meet the official staff? After all, I'm just a designer. For such a big project, shouldn't your leadership go to discuss it in person?"
Tang Xiaoru started the car and said casually, "Everything that needs to be discussed has been discussed by the chairman himself. We are just going there to check out the venue and contact the official people. It's not a big deal."
At this point, she paused, and then continued, "Besides, Deputy Director Qi's ability is not as good as yours. If I take him with me, what advice can he give me?"
Chen Qingrong said modestly, "You can't say that. After all, he studied at a famous foreign university, so he is still very impressive."
"Come on." Tang Xiaoru sneered, "He is a bookworm, and you are a doer. He had no independent design experience before coming to the company. Compared with him, you obviously have much more work experience and experience."
"Besides, you're my boyfriend, it will be easier to use it with you."
"I feel a little embarrassed when you suddenly praise me like this."
"I didn't see you blushing." Tang Xiaoru winked at him and chuckled, "You don't have to worry that Deputy Director Qi will be resentful. He knew about this before I went to see the chairman, and he took the initiative to say that he would not be responsible for following up on this matter."
"Actually, Deputy Director Qi is a pretty good person."
"I didn't say he was a bad person, we just have different stances." Tang Xiaoru shook her head gently.
Chen Qingrong naturally understood what her position was.
The conflict between Tang Xiaoru and the chairman was getting bigger and bigger. Although it was not made public, he knew it from her plan to change jobs and her conversation with him.
No matter what, Qi Long is the chairman's nephew and belongs to the chairman's faction. Even if Tang Xiaoru thinks that Qi Long is someone she can approach, she will be extra cautious because of his identity.
This is for her own protection.
Soon, the two arrived at a large conference hall.
There are already some workers wearing safety helmets coming in and out. They haven't started work yet, they are just making preparations.
After all, the design drawings haven't come out yet, so what's the point of doing this job?
If you can do it yourself, you don't need to hire a designer.
"Hello, Director Ma, nice to see you again." Tang Xiaoru saw a middle-aged man with a big belly standing there chatting with a young woman. She immediately called out and walked over with Chen Qingrong.
Director Ma is just over meters tall and weighs 150-160 kilograms. His beer belly makes him look like a human barrel. He has a Mediterranean look, wears glasses, a white short-sleeved shirt, suit pants, and black leather shoes. He looks like a typical leader.
These leaders seem to be produced from an assembly line, and are exact one-to-one replicas.
As soon as Director Ma saw Tang Xiaoru, an obscene smile immediately appeared on his fat face. "Hey, Xiao Tang, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come here in person this time. Hahaha."
He saw Chen Qingrong again and asked curiously, "Who is this?"
Tang Xiaoru introduced, "This is Chen Qingrong, one of the best designers in our design department. I brought him here for a field trip. Chen Qingrong, this is Director Ma."
"Hello, Director Ma." Chen Qingrong immediately stepped forward, bent over, and stretched out his right hand, saying with a bright smile, "I have heard of your great name for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you in person now."
Director Ma smiled and shook hands with him. "Haha, Designer Chen, right? You're exaggerating. I'm not the God of Wealth. You're so lucky to meet me."
"You can just call me Xiao Chen, Director Ma. Although you are not the God of Wealth, I dream of having a leader like you who can support the younger generation and has a lot of experience while still being young."
"Hahaha, I'm already fifty, but in terms of youth, I'm still younger than Director Tang, haha."
Director Ma was very happy.
Although he never supports younger generations and has basically relied on red envelopes to reach his current position, he likes to listen to Chen Qingrong's words.
What is the purpose of being a leader?
Isn’t it just so that after you gain power, you will be flattered and coaxed by the people below you every day?
I am already a leader, if you still don’t treat me as your father, then isn’t it useless for me to be a leader?
After chatting with Director Ma for a few words, Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru went to get down to business.
After finishing her business and returning to the company, Tang Xiaoru went to report to the chairman first, while Chen Qingrong returned to the design department.
"Brother Chen, you're back." Xiao Yuan looked at him, "How's the matter going?"
“It’s basically going well.”
Chen Qingrong responded with a smile and sat down.
Gao Qiang asked him at this time, "Old Chen, what do you think about me inviting my online friend to go to the haunted house?"
Chen Qingrong glanced at him and said pointedly, "Do you want to take advantage?"
Gao Qiang blushed, "I'm not, I just want to prove that I'm a man."
Chen Qingrong sneered twice, "Haha, you just want to take advantage."
"Okay, I just want to take advantage." Gao Qiang curled his lips, "It's mainly because of the way my online friend and I get along now. It's not quite like being in a relationship, but it's not quite like being in a relationship, either. I don't know what to do."
"So you want to invite her to the haunted house and see if you can take advantage of her?"
"It's mainly to test whether she has feelings for me. Otherwise, I don't know whether I should charge forward or not."
"Don't you think there's a big gap in status between the two of you?"
"How do you know there's a big gap in status between her and me?" Gao Qiang was stunned.
Chen Qingrong lied casually, "I guessed it. After all, I can see that you are the type of person who is dominated by women in a relationship between men and women. Men like you are often dominated by women."
"Well, there's nothing wrong with that." Gao Qiang didn't know what he was thinking about, and scratched his head in an obscene manner.
Thanks to 20240609 for the monthly ticket. This afternoon's update will be a little late. It's a rare holiday, so I will write later, but not later than nine o'clock.
