Chapter 1035 - 1034: Defining the Relationship
"Thank you, Chen Tianlong." Lin Wushuang was somewhat shocked. She finally understood why Wu Mengting was willing to make such sacrifices for Chen Tianlong. It turned out this guy could really move people, so much so that they wanted to give him everything instantly.
"Silly, what are you thanking for? We belong together!" Chen Tianlong laughed.
As soon as he said this, a flash of memory swept through.
Such familiar words, Chen Tianlong seemed to remember saying something similar to someone else.
"Hehe." Lin Wushuang smiled sweetly and made a decision: "Dad, I won’t separate from Chen Tianlong, no matter what happens. We will never part."
Lin Batian nodded, deciding to arrange for them to visit that village in the next few days to inquire about those people and see if there was any news.
Anyway, the twenty-year agreement had come. If they didn’t appear or there was no news by the end of this year, it wouldn’t be a breach of promise.
"Alright, how about this, in a few days, I’ll take you to the headquarters of that prominent family to inquire about their whereabouts. If there’s really no news, you and Chen Tianlong can get engaged."
Lin Batian always liked Chen Tianlong, and he already had the idea of entrusting all of the Lin Family’s business to Chen Tianlong. Now, rare that both diligently did well, it was necessary to seize the time to get things done.
The two nodded, after all, Chen Tianlong’s feelings for Lin Wushuang had long been confirmed.
After chatting for a while, Lin Wushuang went upstairs to rest, while Chen Tianlong talked business with Lin Batian: "Mr. Lin, how’s the company doing lately? Is the progress smooth?"
Lin Batian’s face turned a bit gloomy. Lately, for some unknown reason, the market volatility was significant, as if someone was deliberately manipulating it, and it was entirely regardless of the consequences. Many medical materials were monopolized and bought at high prices, causing their raw material shortage, gradually paralyzing the whole pharmaceutical industry in the South Sea City.
"Tianlong, things haven’t been going well lately. Haven’t you checked on your company?" Lin Batian said with a wry smile.
"What? I haven’t been there. I left everything to Li Bingshuang and Tan Tian. Since I didn’t receive feedback from them, I thought everything was going smoothly." Chen Tianlong also gave a wry smile.
"Oh, maybe Elder Tan had foresight and stockpiled enough inventory, so there’s no significant danger for now, which is why he didn’t inform you," Lin Batian analyzed. He also communicated with Tan Tian, knowing this elder was very meticulous in management, presumably already retaining stock.
Chen Tianlong nodded. Indeed, he felt apologetic about the company’s affairs, given that he hadn’t truly committed to its management: "Mr. Lin, can you tell me what’s happening?"
"I suspect someone is manipulating the raw materials of South Sea City’s pharmaceuticals. It’s not a matter of price but a complete lack of supply," Lin Batian said.
"What about your channels?"
"The channels cleared up goods early due to price differences. They’re just agents of some channels; the real channels are in the Capital City, and these are all major businessmen, their original sources in Yunfu and Japan."
"Do you think someone is deliberately disrupting us, regardless of the cost?" Chen Tianlong finally heard the peculiarity.
"Yes."
Lin Batian nodded.
Chen Tianlong took a deep breath and didn’t linger in the Lin Family, instead heading to the city center, to the headquarters of World Medicine. Of course, he was the boss there.
Entering the company’s lobby, it was luxuriously decorated, not at all inferior to the Lin Group. The lobby manager was a young woman, reportedly a classmate of Li Jingwen’s from college, majoring in economic management. With good character, she was introduced over.
"Hello, Boss!"
The girl’s name was Xiao Qing and this was her first time seeing Chen Tianlong. Previously, she had only seen him in photos because he rarely visited the new company.
Now, seeing Chen Tianlong, who was even more handsome in person than in pictures, she was a bit starstruck, staring at him after greeting the boss.
"Hello, Xiao Qing, right?"
Chen Tianlong had an excellent memory. He remembered almost everything people said to him. The lobby manager was introduced by Liu Ting, so of course, he knew about her.
"Ah? Boss, you know me?" Xiao Qing was a bit surprised. She had been here just over a month, and if it weren’t for her two years of lobby manager experience and the connection through Liu Ting, it would have been impossible to establish herself in such a rapidly developing new company.
What’s more, the boss actually remembered her, making Xiao Qing both surprised and delighted.
"Yes, your name is Xiao Qing, correct?" Chen Tianlong saw the beautiful girl’s surprised face turning red and smiled as he approached.
"Yes, yes, I’m Xiao Qing. Don’t worry, boss, I will work hard. I absolutely won’t slack off." Xiao Qing hastily expressed her attitude.
"Hehe, it’s okay to slack off as long as it doesn’t affect work or image. Be casual; work is also life. Keep a regular mindset, no need to be too tense, got it?" Chen Tianlong smiled lightly, then turned to leave.
Leaving Xiao Qing standing there, somewhat dumbfounded, unable to speak a word.
Honestly, this was the most distinctive boss she had encountered so far. No wonder the company, less than a year old, had achieved such performance. It seemed extraordinary talents were at play.
Chen Tianlong employed a different management method, so every employee felt they were striving for their own home, working very hard.
Indeed, Chen Tianlong adopted a merit-based management style, promoting outstanding talents while merely stepping back for those less capable without laying them off. After all, no one is inherently dull; Chen Tianlong had a dedicated technical training team to immediately conduct skills and knowledge training for those unqualified, ensuring no waste of talent, no arbitrary layoffs.
Moreover, Chen Tianlong implemented company-wide profit sharing, encouraging everyone to invest, joining in stocks, with year-end bonuses. Although this meant some loss for the boss and major shareholders, it was the best way to motivate employees.
After all, who wouldn’t want to earn more money? If the company profits, the bonus is good, and their wallets get filled with more money.
Importantly, the major shareholders of World Medicine, besides him, were four other shareholders: Liu Ting, Tan Tian, Lin Batian, and Li Bingshuang.
From these names, it was clear they were all with Chen Tianlong, who didn’t care about how much the bonus was.
Just as he reached the elevator, he heard a ding sound, and two people walked out of the elevator. One was Li Bingshuang, and the other was Li Jingwen. Two beautiful women came over with smiles, and Chen Tianlong walked straight toward them.
