After becoming financially free, they offered their loyalty

Chapter 398: Flattery, Incognito Visit, Confidence
At 9:40, the conference call started on time, and Shen Yuan's face appeared on the screen in the conference room.

"Good morning, Mr. Shen."

"Good morning, Mr. Shen."

"Boss, morning."

Seeing the boss, several people sitting at the conference table greeted him one after another.

The last one was Yu Jifeng. He smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, you are too busy. You have to hold a meeting for us even when you are in the car."

Shen Yuan sat in the second row of Alpha and smiled, thinking to himself, I'll just be busy. The Hemu Medical Group doesn't need my management, Jingfu Health has become a hands-off boss, and this foundation is also managed by you.

Old Yu, you are trying to flatter me, right?

When Liu Lan saw Lao Yu praising the boss, she smiled and followed suit: "Yes, thank you for your concern, Mr. Shen. It's because we haven't worked hard enough that you have to worry so much."

The words are very hypocritical, but if you don't say it, it's quite comfortable to listen to. Shen Yuan is increasingly able to understand why those who flatter others can get to the top.

"Let's start the meeting."

As Shen Yuan waved his hand, Long Jinghan, who was presiding over the meeting, stood up. She was the deputy secretary-general of Yuanyi Foundation. The executive level was mainly handled by her, Liu Lan, and Yu Jifeng.

Before, the foundation was just a makeshift team, but now it is gradually taking shape.

Positions such as project members, administrative staff, public relations, human resources, and donor relations specialists are already in place.

After Long Jinghan reported on the progress in human resources, Liu Lan stood up and reported on the 1000 million project of Li Ya Middle School. Last time, Shen Yuan donated 1000 million to Li Ya in the name of Yuanyi Foundation. It has been reported in the newspapers, and several TV stations in Xingcheng have competed to report it.

During the event, Li Ya's principal Tang held a banner and brought the school leadership and student representatives to the foundation's office to express their gratitude.

Principal Tang also recorded a thank-you video and brought it over, in which all the teachers and students of Li Ya School solemnly expressed their gratitude to Shen Yuan and the foundation on the playground.

A one-time donation of 1000 million yuan was donated to education, and with the deliberate promotion of Principal Tang, reporters from Tianxingcheng TV station also came. In addition to recording the donation, they also wanted to do an exclusive interview with Shen Yuan.

However, Shen Yuan was in Shanghai that time, so the reporter could only interview the foundation’s executive team and directors.

Principal Tang was worried that there was not enough news material this time, so he took the initiative to ask the reporter to interview him more and talk about many of Shen Yuan's deeds in middle school.

"Mr. Shen, do you need me to send you the thank-you video and the video of Principal Tang being interviewed?" Liu Lan asked.

"Well, send it to me."

Just as Shen Yuan finished speaking, he suddenly remembered: "Has this interview been broadcast?"

This is what he found strange. If the interview was broadcast, there was no way Mr. Shen and Ms. Li would not have been unaware of it. Even if they did not appear on camera, his name and the name of the foundation would appear in the interview.

"Not yet. The reporter said it will be broadcast next week. They haven't given up yet and have been trying to find out about you these past few days. I guess they want you to appear on the show."

Liu Lan explained.

"I won't be on camera. If you're asked again, just refuse. Okay, next thing."

Shen Yuan said calmly.

Yu Jifeng stood up and said, "Mr. Shen, the donations from your friends, as well as Director Jin and Director Cheng, have all arrived and have been credited to the account."

"Who are Director Jin and Director Cheng?"

"Jin Kangwen and Cheng Xian, last time you said that you wanted them to become directors as well." Yu Jifeng said.

"Oh, Lao Jin and Lao Cheng."

When Shen Yuan first heard the term "director", he forgot their real names. The position of director sounds very impressive, but it is just a nominal position and they will not interfere in the operation of the foundation.

"Next thing."

"Mr. Shen, regarding the anti-tumor nano-drug project of Nanjing University and the large aircraft ground dynamics test platform project, are they using the original funds of the foundation? In addition, what is the approximate donation amount?"

Yu Jifeng asked.

The same goes for the foundation. Shen Yuan is only responsible for decision-making and general direction, while the details and execution are left to the people below.

"Without the original capital, I will take out another 2000 million. 1500 million will be used for the tumor project and 500 million will be used for ground dynamics."

Shen Yuan said calmly, his tone of understatement, as if he was not taking out 2000 million, but taking out 200 yuan.

Yu Jifeng was used to his boss's style, but when he heard the tone of donating 2000 million, he swallowed his saliva and said, "Okay, Mr. Shen."

The executive team of the foundation present were also shocked by Shen Yuanhao's domineering decision to spend 2 million.

A group of them were newly recruited. They thought that since their boss could set up a charitable foundation, he must be very rich, but they never thought he was so rich.

I thought that the donation of 1000 million to Li Ya Middle School was to quickly build up reputation for the foundation, and that things would be steady and stable in the future.

I never thought that 1000 million was just the beginning. The boss didn’t even touch the original funds and donated another 2000 million!
Looking at the boss lying nonchalantly on the screen, everyone's respect for him increased a little more.

The salary for working at a foundation is not high, and it is very busy when there are too many projects. It is a job that pays little but is demanding and tiring.

But when they come to work in a charity foundation, they want to contribute their own strength to charity, and salary is not that important.

So when they saw their boss donating so much money to charity, they thought everything about this man was particularly pleasing to the eye.

"Is there anything else?" Shen Yuan asked.

“I don’t have any more here.”

Yu Jifeng looked at Long Jinghan, who stood up and said, "Mr. Shen, I have finished reporting everything to you today. Sorry to bother you."

"it is good."

Probably they would continue the meeting, so Shen Yuan hung up the video call directly.

"After this 2000 million donation, the 5000 exclusive charity fund will all be donated. I don't know what kind of reward Tongzi will give this time?"

Shen Yuan thought that the previous rewards had never disappointed him, so this time it would definitely be higher.

For Shen Yuan, doing charity is not only about contributing to society, but also about advancing his entrepreneurial mission.

I stretched and looked at the time on my watch. It was only 10 o'clock. "Jiya, how long will it take to get to the golf course?"

"Boss, the navigation shows it'll take 15 minutes. There will be some traffic jams."

"Row."

Shen Yuan opened WeChat and checked the two videos sent by Liu Lan.

As soon as you open the first video, you can see all the teachers and students of Li Ya standing on the playground, in the same formation as they usually do when doing radio gymnastics, singing in unison.

First there was singing, then there was the summary speech by the principal, Lao Tang.
"Thank you with a grateful heart. Finally, let us give a warm round of applause to thank Senior Shen Yuan for his generous donation!"

It felt a bit like a military parade, except that the voices were more childish. However, there were a few boys in the front row who were just paddling. They just moved their mouths, but no sound came out, and their expressions even looked a little disdainful.

Shen Yuan smiled, as if he saw himself back then.

At the end of the video, it cuts to the school's Wall of Honor, and Lao Tang also put himself on the wall, which has his name, photo, date of birth, and years of study.

However, Shen Yuan's photo looked out of place. The people on this wall of honor were basically all old men in their sixties and seventies, some of whom had even passed away. Only Shen Yuan was only in his 20s.

It's very unlucky for you to do this, Lao Tang.

Open the second video, it is the scene of Principal Tang being interviewed.

Female reporter: "Principal Tang, do you have any impression of Shen Yuan when you were in school?" In the video, Mr. Tang pushed his glasses and smiled: "Of course I do. Shen Yuan was an excellent student at that time. Not only did he have excellent academic performance, he was also polite and united with his classmates. When his classmates encountered difficulties, he was always the first to help."

Shen Yuan covered his face and didn't want to look. How could Old Tang, who is a jerk, say such things? Don't you have any idea what I was like back then?
In the video, the female reporter asked a second question: "Principal Tang, did Shen Yuan show any characteristics that were different from other students at that time?"

"Of course there are."

Lao Tang said sincerely: "At that time, he showed a strong curiosity and thirst for knowledge, and his learning method was unique and his learning efficiency was very high. He is a gifted child."

Female reporter: "Did you give any special instruction or care to students like Shen Yuan?"

Old Tang straightened his chest and said, "I have always been fair in education. But students like Shen Yuan are so outstanding. They will become the pillars of the country when they are trained. Sometimes I can't help but give him some special treatment. On the one hand, I want him to make progress, and on the other hand, I am afraid that he will go astray."

I can’t bear to watch it any more. I really can’t bear to watch it any more. Shen Yuan turned off the video and thought to himself, Lao Tang, you are so shameless.

No wonder he could become the principal. Even I feel ashamed of myself for his shamelessness.

Not long after, Alpha arrived at Yunlu Golf Course. Ji Ya accompanied Shen Yuan out of the car and asked, "Boss, do you need someone to notify the golf course manager?"

"Not for now, let me take a look."

This time Shen Yuan was on a "secret visit" and did not inform anyone, so the management of the stadium probably didn't know about it.

Last time, the law firm conducted due diligence on the Sinan Club and golf course. All of Sinan’s data were positive, but the operation and turnover of the golf course were very ordinary, barely able to maintain a balance between income and expenditure.

It is not a healthy asset. If it were not for its close connection with the Sinan Club, it would have started to lose money long ago.

Shen Yuan and Ji Ya were both wearing sportswear and sneakers, and looked like they were here to play basketball, so they were greeted as soon as they entered the lobby.

Shen Yuan asked Ji Ya to go and process the admission, while he sat in the rest area on one side of the lobby.

He doesn't know how to play golf and has never been to a golf course. Just like going to his own club to experience the services, he also wants to experience what it's like to play golf on his own course.

By the way, let’s take a look at the unsatisfactory profits of the stadium to see if there are any problems with its daily operations.

So far, the service is in place. When you enter the lobby, service staff will greet you quickly, and when you sit in the lounge area, someone will pour you tea immediately.

Shen Yuan took a sip of tea and looked at the layout of the lobby. Not long after he looked around, someone on the sofa across from him smiled and said, "Brother, is this your first time here?"

Shen Yuan took a look at him. He looked good, and his clothes were OK. He seemed like a regular customer.

“How come you see?”

"Generally, people who come to the golf course to play golf will wear golf shirts and shorts. There are also special golf shoes. The outfit you are wearing is fine for running or other track and field sports, but it is not suitable for playing golf."

"Brother, you have strong observation skills." Shen Yuan gave a thumbs up.

"Excuse me. Actually, there is another way to tell. That is, you are looking at the lobby of this stadium. Generally speaking, people who come here often or come here for the second time will not look at the lobby like this."

"Brother, you're a policeman?"

Shen Yuan thought to himself, I'm looking here because this is my court. Do you think I'm looking here out of curiosity?
"Haha, no, I'm just used to observing life."

The man smiled and replied, then extended his hand: "Nice to meet you, my name is Qian Zihao."

"Shen Yuan."

Shen Yuan shook hands with him and thought that this guy was a bit of a social nerd.

"I'll add you on WeChat later. I come here often and have taught many people who are new to golf. I'll share my experience with you when I have time."

Qian Zihao said warmly.

Actually, he was not like this to everyone. The main reason was that Shen Yuan's outfit was much more expensive than his. Not to mention the clothes and shoes, the Audemars Piguet frosted gold bracelet on his hand alone had a market price of at least 70 to 80, which was twice as expensive as the Earl's watch on his hand.

When Qian Zihao saw that the man was of the same age as him and that he would need to expand his network in order to develop in Xingcheng, he decided to make friends with him.

"can."

It's understandable that he is socially obsessed and that he likes making friends, but this guy has some bad habits.

There is a suspicion of showing off in his words and deeds, as if he is habitually pretending to be cool.

"Brother, did you just finish the fight or just arrive?" Shen Yuan asked.

"I'm done, waiting for some friends. A day's plan begins in the morning, so of course I have to get up early."

At this point, Qian Zihao pointed at a girl who had just walked out of the bathroom and said, "Look, that's her."

Shen Yuan followed his gaze and paused.

Even wearing loose white sportswear, it is still difficult to conceal her plump and charming figure. Moreover, the better the figure, the easier it is to add a sense of mystery when wearing loose clothes, making people want to peek at her figure under her clothes.

The most important thing is that she is also very beautiful, and her charming facial features seem to radiate light, attracting the attention of all the men in the lobby.

It’s Dai Lu.

We last met in the Magic City, and I didn’t expect to see you here.

"Your girlfriend?"

Shen Yuan asked tentatively.

"Not yet, but soon." Qian Zihao's face flashed with confidence.

Where does NEET get that confidence from?
Shen Yuan kept looking at him and asked, "Why, is it so hard to pursue her? You are so good, this shouldn't be the case."

Qian Zihao smiled and said, "She is different from other girls. She is independent and has her own pursuits. She also has high requirements for her partner."

Shen Yuan said: "It means your offensive is not strong enough. If it were me, I might have won it by now."

Qian Zihao turned around and looked at Shen Yuan with a smile: "Brother, although you have good conditions, believe it or not, if you go up to chat with me, you can't even add me on WeChat?"

"Is it that exaggerated?"

"It took me a lot of effort to add her on WeChat. She is really different from other girls. She is not materialistic and cannot be won over by money." Qian Zihao said firmly.

"Then let me try?"

".Then you try it."

Qian Zihao felt helpless, thinking that this guy was too tactless. I’m pursuing a girl, and this isn’t the way to prove that you’re attractive, right?

However, his desire to win also arose, and he wanted to see how Shen Yuan would return in defeat.

I went through so much trouble and went through so many roundabout ways to finally get added on WeChat, and you just say so?
"You won't be angry if I add you, right?" Shen Yuan asked deliberately.

"Why should I be angry? You underestimate my tolerance."

Qian Zihao thought to himself, there’s no way you can get that, bro, you’re really too confident.

"Okay, I'll go then."

Shen Yuan said this and stood up and walked towards Dai Lu.

Qian Zihao looked at his back with interest. This guy is quite funny. Where does his confidence come from?
Even if you wear an Audemars Piguet, it shouldn’t be so bloated, right?
But this guy is indeed quite handsome, and even I had to avoid him when I was in my prime.

When Shen Yuan stood next to Dai Lu and their eyes met, Qian Zi seemed to realize that something was wrong.

The atmosphere is a bit weird. Wait, why are we still chatting?
No, why are you still talking and laughing?
The smile on Qian Zihao's face froze.
