Reborn, back to a small county town to become a wealthy family

Chapter 616 A meaningful gaze

After everyone gathered together, in just over ten minutes, Luo Yang became the center of attention.

In this process, although Min Huijun played a bridging role, the more crucial person was Luo Yang himself.

In addition to his sophisticated speaking skills, the most important thing is that he can bring benefits.

Not to mention the people who originally organized the group, Zhao Junna was hoping to get some advertising business from him, Du Mingyu's project was still waiting for his investment, and Zhang Weilun and he had become a community of interests because of the game company.

Jiang Tao and his friends were no exception, and they could all find opportunities to cooperate with Luo Yang.

If Min Huijun and Xu Lu hadn't been strict with their parents and required everyone to be home before 12 o'clock, the excitement on the third floor wouldn't have ended so early.

When the show was over, Jiang Tao and others shook hands with Luo Yang and said goodbye.

Even Song Junfeng, who had been a little awkward before, was no exception.

Su Miaomiao looked at Luo Yang and gave him a hug before leaving.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a beautiful lady is throwing herself into my arms!"

At the entrance of Yanhuang Business Club, Min Huijun saw this scene and said sarcastically: "I think you can try to date tomorrow, maybe you can even have a happy marriage."

She didn't know why, but whenever she saw Luo Yang, she couldn't help but say a few words to him.

"Now that you've reminded me of this, I almost forgot something."

If we want to talk about dogs, it has to be Luo Yang: "I have an appointment with President Dong these two days, so I'd like to ask her if she has time to take me to your house for a meal. I felt that Aunt Wang had a good impression of me last time, so I need to deepen it."

Min Huijun instantly got furious.

"you dare!"

She pointed at Luo Yang and said, "You are not welcome in my home!"

"It doesn't matter what you say."

Luo Yang was a little drunk, so he spoke more freely: "Miss Min, your mother must be very anxious, right?"

"Pfft!"

Xu Lu, who was eating melons on the side, couldn't help laughing: "Sister Huijun, I actually think you two are quite a good match."

"Shut up!"

Luo Yang and Min Huijun stopped Xu Lu in unison.

The girl who was eating melons suddenly became silent.

"It has been proven once again that nothing good happens when I meet you."

It was getting late, and his head was getting more and more dizzy. Luo Yang didn't want to continue chatting with Min Huijun, so he just said straight from the heart: "No matter if there is something going on or not, it's best if we don't meet in the future."

"Who wants to meet you!"

Min Huijun was trembling with anger.

If Xu Lu hadn't dragged her away, she might have argued with Luo Yang for a long time.

As soon as they left, the entrance became quiet.

"Luo Yang, thanks to you tonight, otherwise I don't know how to end it."

Du Mingyu, Zhang Weilun and Zhao Junna, who were paying the bill, stayed until the last to leave.

After Luo Yang and Min Huijun finished arguing, Zhang Weilun among the three dared to speak.

He apologized to Luo Yang with an embarrassed look on his face: "Because I invited Huang Ze to come over tonight, I almost ruined this party."

"Tonight's situation has a lot to do with me."

Luo Yang knew that it was he who brought Min Huijun here, which led to a series of subsequent events, so he couldn't blame Zhang Weilun.

So he waved his hand and said, "Besides, it didn't get out of hand in the end."

What happened tonight really cannot be blamed on Zhang Weilun.

"Yes, I see that they seem to be getting along quite well with you after chatting with you."

Zhang Weilun smiled and said, "Especially Min Huijun. I heard the old man at home mention her father. He is a big shot in the local circle of Shanghai. I didn't expect that she is so familiar with you."

You call this familiar?

Luo Yang sighed and said, "Don't you see that we dislike each other when we meet?"

Du Mingyu and Zhao Junna covered their mouths and laughed.

"Huang Ze and I have some relationship. Next time, let him ask Jiang Tao to meet up, and we can find an opportunity to get together?"

Whether they just disliked each other or were just bickering enemies, I argued with Luo Yang until dawn but to no avail.

Zhang Weilun changed the subject and said, "You know, apart from the top guys, Jiang Tao is already a pretty impressive guy in the circle. It's very difficult to get into their circle."

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Luo Yang shook his head and said, "They are just a bunch of second-generation people who can barely come up with a few million. If we really want to discuss business, they are not even qualified to come to the table!"

It’s hard to say about Min Huijun’s father, but in Luo Yang’s eyes, Jiang Tao and his friends are just like that.

So what if the Jiang family has two listed companies?
Just talking about the industries under Luo Yang's name, in the next few years, as long as he is willing, it should not be difficult for him to operate two or three companies for listing.

My father-in-law's Yuanfan Group has three subsidiaries that are all listed companies.

What he lacks now is nothing more than some connections.

Among the group of people tonight, except Min Huijun who helped a little, in Jiang Tao's eyes, the importance of the others was not even as important as Song Junfeng.

At least his family's industry can complement Luo Yang's.

Come to think of it, Luo Yang is, after all, the first generation of entrepreneurs and can make the final decision in his own company. No matter how powerful Jiang Tao's family is, he is still only the successor and has not yet begun to truly master the decision-making power of his own company.

These words left Zhang Weilun speechless for a moment.

In the silent atmosphere, Luo Yang's driver drove to the door of Yanhuang Business Club.

Du Mingyu originally had a lot to say to Luo Yang, but he was interrupted by Jiang Tao and the others when they came in, and he never got the chance again.

"Boss Luo, I'm really sorry that our dinner party turned out like this tonight."

Seeing that Luo Yang was about to leave, he quickly seized the opportunity to ask, "Although Jiang Tao said he was optimistic about this project, I think it was just a polite remark. But do you still take your previous statement about your intention to invest seriously?"

"Of course what I said is true."

Luo Yang managed to stay awake for the last bit and said, "I'll have someone from the company's investment department contact you later."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall and beautiful woman came out from the passenger seat and opened the rear door skillfully.
"Wei Lun, you were too enthusiastic towards Jiang Tao and the others tonight."

As she watched Luo Yang's car drive away, Zhao Junna stood beside Zhang Weilun and said, "The one who can help us at this stage is still Mr. Luo."

"But."

Zhang Weilun defended himself by saying, "Jiang Tao and his friends are not playboys. They will inherit the family business sooner or later. It's not wrong to build good relationships with them, right?"

"How soon will this be?"

Zhao Junna is sober: "When Jiang Tao and his family inherit the family business, Mr. Luo's wealth and status may have far surpassed them."

Zhang Weilun hesitated to speak.

Luo Yang, who was leaving, didn't know what Zhao Junna and Zhang Weilun said behind his back. After getting in the car, he leaned back in the back seat, closed his eyes, and rubbed his temple with one hand.

It's a mess tonight.

I have to stay away from this woman Min Huijun from now on. Every time I met her, nothing good happened.

"Chairman, we've arrived at the hotel." Tian Tian saw Luo Yang resting with his eyes closed, so she waited until they reached the destination before speaking: "I'll help you up."

"Ah."

In the second half, he became the focus, many people toasted him, and he drank quite a bit.

I'm feeling groggy now.

If he hadn't seen Tian Tian sleeping on the sofa the next day, he wouldn't have remembered how he got back to the room.

"Why are you sleeping on the sofa?"

"Director Wen requested that you be accompanied by someone when you are drunk."

Tian Tian felt a little embarrassed. Wen Wan had asked her to stay with him, but she didn't want her to sleep alone on the sofa. Instead, she had to observe whether the drunk boss had any symptoms such as vomiting. If so, she had to take precautions in time.

Sleeping through the night like she does is not much different from not having someone with you.

"Hurry up and wash up, we have to have breakfast later."

Luo Yang didn't know Wen Wan's specific request. There would be a board meeting this morning, and he had to arrive at the company before 9:00.

Fortunately, this hotel is very close to the group headquarters, only a five-minute walk away.

"Morning boss!"

"Is everyone here?"

"Except for President Song Wan who is still in Yangcheng, the rest of the board members are already in the meeting room."

The moment she saw Luo Yang at the door of the office, Wen Wan stood up and greeted him, and reported on this morning's meeting: "It is 8:50 now, the meeting materials and your teacup have been placed on your seat."

"Well, let's go directly to the meeting room."

Luo Yang turned around at the office door and walked towards the meeting room.

"Good morning, Chairman!"

"Morning boss!"

"."

Chu Jianming, CEO of Kunpeng Technology, An Ying, CEO of Luo Sheng Tang, Tan Ying, general manager of Guobao Pictures, Qiao Zhiyuan, chairman of Jiang Xiaobai, Zhao Pengcheng, CEO of Gray Rhino Capital, Cao Yanbo, general manager of Sihai Security, and Yu Haiping, who has not yet stepped down as chairman of the board of directors' secretariat committee, all these board members have taken their seats in the conference room.

When they saw Luo Yang enter the meeting room, they all stood up and greeted him.

"Don't be polite, everyone, take a seat, and let's get started."

Luo Yang pressed his hands and sat straight down in his seat.

"Chairman, fellow directors, good morning."

Wen Wan attended the board meeting as the chairman's assistant and also served as the host of the board meeting.

"According to the chairman's request, this board meeting was held. Nine people were supposed to attend, but eight were present. Ms. Song Wan, a board member, was on a business trip to Yangcheng and had already submitted a leave application in advance. According to the company's articles of association, the number of people present exceeded two-thirds of the board members, and the voting results of this meeting are valid."

After the prelude was read, Wen Wan read out the first item according to the meeting agenda.

"First, we will announce three personnel appointment and dismissal resolutions."

"Due to the needs of the company's business, Yu Haiping is dismissed from his position as the director of the board's secretarial committee and appointed as the vice president of Lingshi Palace Group and secretary-general of Sunshine Charity Foundation, in charge of Sihai Security Company and the group's administrative and logistics department."

"Appoint Wen Wan, Director of the Board Office, to concurrently serve as Director of the Board's Secretariat Committee."

"Appoint Cao Yanbo as the general manager of Sihai Security Company."

There had actually been rumors about the first two appointments a long time ago. Several board members present had already heard about them and were not surprised.

However, Sihai Security has attracted some attention because it is a newly acquired company and its general manager Cao Yanbo is also a new member of the board of directors.

"General Manager Cao Yanbo is a new member and you may not be familiar with him."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Why not let Manager Cao introduce himself first."

Amid the applause, Cao Yanbo stood up and gestured around the conference room.

He said in a loud and full voice: "Chairman, colleagues, my name is Cao Yanbo. Before coming to Sihai Security, I was the deputy general manager of a security company in Pengcheng. I feel very honored to be invited by Chairman Luo Yang to join the Lingshi Palace family."

Because it was a board meeting, my self-introduction was very brief.

Everyone responded with enthusiastic applause.

"Let's proceed to the second agenda of the meeting."

Wen Wan, the new director of the board of directors' secretarial committee, continued: "We will review several investment projects for the company in the next phase. The first one is the acquisition of the Hangzhou e-commerce platform."

In fact, this acquisition project is already underway, which seems a bit like acting first and reporting later.

But no one on the board raised any objection.

"The total acquisition funds for this project exceeded 5000 million. The reason why it was not brought to the board of directors for discussion in advance was because this acquisition action had certain special features. President Song Wan even went to Yangcheng specifically to engage in strategic deception."

Although no one raised any objections, it was still a violation of procedure. Luo Yang came up with a reasonable reason to cover it up and save face.

"Strategic deception?"

Originally, the resolution was simply read out and passed by a show of hands, but unexpectedly, An Ying became curious and suddenly asked a question.

Among the entire board of directors, she was the only one present who dared to do so.

Of course, Luo Yang also knew that she was curious about the business plan and did not want to embarrass him.

"The investment department wants to acquire this e-commerce platform for more than 1 million yuan, which is a big gap from the acquisition price we can offer."

Luo Yang is relatively tolerant towards An Ying.

He even took the initiative to explain it, including the strategies used in the process, and explained it at the board meeting.

"When Song Wan returns from Yangcheng, you can talk to her alone about the specific plan and process. We are holding a board meeting today, so I won't go into details here. Let's vote on this investment now."

Wen Wan had announced before that this acquisition project was one of the group's main projects in the future. It involved the group's strategic decision to establish an e-commerce platform, and it should have been discussed before being voted on.

It’s just that this project is close to being successfully acquired, so there’s no need to discuss it further now.

Luo Yang simply skipped the discussion and went straight to the vote.

The result was naturally not unexpected, it was passed unanimously.

"For the second investment resolution, the project was submitted by Luo Sheng Tang's Executive President An Ying to the Project Review Committee and has been approved. It is now being reviewed by the Board of Directors meeting."

Luo Yang asked An Ying to set up a new food company outside of Luo Sheng Tang, and this was the first new project to be tried: spicy strips.

The total investment of the project was less than 5000 million, so it was first reported to the project committee. Because Luo Yang had given a heads-up in advance, the project committee directly reviewed and approved it and reported it to the board of directors for a resolution.

"Luo Sheng Tang is going to launch a new project?"

As Wen Wan sent the information to every board member, no one else reacted much, but Qiao Zhiyuan was surprised.

You should know that he has a good relationship with Cai Fujun and they often have dinner together.

But as far as he knew, Cai Fujun did not know that Luo Shengtang was going to launch a new project.

So he began to look through the project information carefully.

The more I looked, the more surprised I was.

Subconsciously, Qiao Zhiyuan looked up at Chairman Luo Yang who was sitting in front of him.

Just happened to meet Luo Yang's meaningful gaze.
