CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin suddenly realized what was going on.

She immediately knew what she had to do.

Chapter 233 Pretending to be Kind

"Mayor Qi, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away!"

Gao Xiaoqin is a very quick-witted person; otherwise, she wouldn't have achieved what she has today.

However, in Qi Tongwei's view, Gao Xiaoqin was very quick-witted.

She does have one flaw: Gao Xiaoqin is too impatient when doing things.

Every time, as long as she comes up with an idea or hears a good one.

Gao Xiaoqin would immediately throw herself into her work, demonstrating such strong execution ability.

Everyone can achieve something, but if someone's execution is too strong, it can also cause problems.

That is, doing things without considering the consequences. Such people may be very capable, but their vision may not be long-term.

In contrast, Qi Tongwei was different.

He's the kind of person who, even before you've stepped through the door, already knows how you should come out!

Therefore, compared to Gao Xiaoqin, Qi Tongwei is actually smarter.

However, he was an old fox, even though he could always see further than Gao Xiaoqin.

Qi Tongwei also had to pretend that he knew nothing.

However, he and Gao Xiaoqin had indeed slept together.

Seeing that his lover was getting a little carried away, Qi Tongwei felt it was necessary to give him a reminder.

"Xiaoqin, I think you're great in every way, but you're just a little too hasty when you do things!"

"If only you could get rid of this impatient habit of yours!"

Gao Xiaoqin wasn't stupid; she knew that Qi Tongwei never spoke nonsense.

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin's entire demeanor changed.

Previously, Gao Xiaoqin was focused on figuring out how to create a trap for Qiangsheng Group.

But Gao Xiaoqin suddenly became alert and asked in a puzzled tone.

"Mayor Qi, what do you mean?"

"Xiaoqin, what I mean is very simple. I just want you to know that Gao Qilin is very capable."

“He is definitely not as easy to deal with as you think, so you absolutely cannot let Gao Qilin know that it was your company that helped him raise funds.”

"You must bypass Gao Qilin and have someone very important to him accept this financing, do you understand?"

Qi Tongwei's words were like a wake-up call for Gao Xiaoqin. Originally, Gao Xiaoqin wanted to personally visit Gao Qilin to hand over the 10 billion yuan.

Doing so will cause quite a stir.

However, if Gao Qilan accepts this money, it means that from now on, Shanshui Group will become the largest shareholder of Qiangsheng Group.

And Gao Qilin, the chairman, will become a mere figurehead. At that time, whatever Gao Xiaoqin says, Gao Qilin will do.

Otherwise, Gao Xiaoqin could withdraw these billions of yuan at any time!

In other words, on the surface, it appears that Shanshui Group helped Qiangsheng Group out of this urgent crisis.

But that's not actually the case. In reality, Qiangsheng Group will always have to live in the shadow of Shanshui Group!

Others may not see this principle clearly, but Gao Qilin can see it at a glance.

This is why Qi Tongwei specifically instructed Gao Xiaoqin to avoid Gao Qilin.

If Gao Qilin finds out about this...

I fear that Shanshui Group's plan to control Qiangsheng Group will vanish in an instant!

"Alright! Mayor Qi, I understand everything you've said."

"I know what I need to do!"

Seeing that Gao Xiaoqin had finally understood, Qi Tongwei gave her some instructions over the phone.

"Hmm, not bad. Xiaoqin, I knew you were smarter than most people. When you encounter problems, you think things through more clearly than most people."

"However, I still have to remind you that, given the current situation, your only reliable option is to go find Gao Qilin's older brother!"

"Although he doesn't hold any position in Qiangsheng Company, this person is still Gao Qilin's elder brother!"

... 0 .......

"If he accepts this money, then if Gao Qilin tries to cause trouble later, he'll have nowhere to run!"

"Back then, if you wanted to get rid of him, all you had to do was give him a simple, casual instruction!"

"Besides, Gao Qilin's relationship with his elder brother is quite special. Both brothers lost their parents early, and his elder brother raised them with great difficulty!"

"For Gao Qilin, his relationship with his elder brother was not as simple as that of brothers; it was more like that of father and son!"

Hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin felt even more confident.

She knew that although Gao Qilin's elder brother did not hold any position in Qiangsheng Group.

But he should be aware of the current situation facing Qiangsheng Group. If he were to propose using money to help Qiangsheng Group overcome its difficulties...

It's likely that Gao Qilin's older brother wouldn't refuse. If he accepts, the entire Qiangsheng Group will be dragged down with him!

Unless Gao Qilin completely severs ties with his elder brother, but if he does that, the Qiangsheng Group will collapse!

Chapter 234 Brothers United

Don't be fooled by Gao Qilin's status as the chairman of Qiangsheng Group, where he lives a life of luxury.

But his elder brother lived a very simple life, perhaps because he came from a fishmonger background.

After Gao Qilin became successful, his elder brother continued to live in the same old house.

Later, when the building was slated for demolition, Gao Qilin used his connections to preserve the old house he remembered from back then.

Local demolition officials found this quite strange, since the demolition compensation was not much for Qiangsheng Group.

However, if Gao Qilin wants to preserve this building, he will have to pay a heavy price.

These costs are not just financial; they also involve saving face, maintaining good relationships, and even backing down.

Many big bosses would definitely back down if they found out that they had to pay such a high price to keep a building.

But Gao Qilan was different; he went to great lengths to save the building.

When the officials asked him why he did it, Gao Qilan simply smiled at them.

"We're so reluctant to leave! Maybe it's because our family has such a deep emotional connection to this building!"

In Gao Xiaoqin's view, being too sentimental is both a good thing and a bad thing.

The reason for saying this is because when a team is just starting out.

If you value relationships, you will be able to unite people.

This is very important in the early stages of a startup, because many teams fail because of a lack of unity.

It died before it could even get off the ground, but once a team grows big...

If the leader or the top person still values ​​personal relationships, that won't work.

Because at this point, if you value relationships...

What should you do if your long-time employees abuse their seniority? What should you do if your long-time employees use their connections to get their relatives promoted?

At that time, it was the businesses that suffered the losses.

Many bosses treat their long-term employees well, but what if these long-term employees take advantage of their seniority and disregard company rules?

Bosses will also take action to punish them, because they know that they will never allow these long-term employees to trample on their authority!

When Gao Xiaoqin and her employees arrived at the abandoned building, she couldn't help but smile.

"You know what, Gao Qilin is actually quite sentimental!"

"I heard that he put in a lot of effort to save this building!"

"A person who cherishes the past is quite likable, but in this cruel business world, someone who is too sentimental won't go far!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin's advisors immediately began to flatter her.

"Yes! Mr. Gao, you're absolutely right! We completely agree with your view, because a good company needs a system of management!"

"General Manager Gao has led us to repeated victories in the business world thanks to our company's system!"

"That's right. If a company's rules and regulations cannot be implemented, then I can't even imagine what kind of company it is!"

Gao Xiaoqin knew that all the people under her command were just flattering her.

But she felt that what these people said wasn't wrong, if they didn't even know how to flatter.

Then there's no point in me keeping them here!
