Chapter 67: with translation of chapter title

Li Xin's noodle skin doesn't need to be mentioned—there simply isn't any!

His talk could fool a fool, that's obvious; Li Xin may not be supremely smart, but he's definitely not stupid!

In a previous life, Nai Cha Dong said: "Employees resign not because they feel wronged, but because wages aren't enough"—there aren't many reasons.

Here, it can be rephrased: "When employees join, if wages are sufficient and they still don't come, it means they don't believe in the company's development."

Then just prescribe the right medicine.

"Director Huo, you may not be too familiar with the Red Signal Group corporation; the legal person of Red Signal Group is not me, but my girlfriend Line: Qiuti. I hold no shares in Red Signal, I am an appointed chairman, with an annual salary of one Hong Kong dollar."

Currently, Red Signal Group has six subsidiary enterprises: a security company, an agency, a film production company, a cinema chain, a taxi company, and a communications company.

Its asset scale isn't large, but certainly not small; it definitely can't compare with those real estate developers, but… the asset scale of Red Signal Group could be called a medium-sized enterprise, right?

What do you say?

After Li Xin finished speaking, he stared into Huo Jianning's eyes, hoping to obtain useful information.

Huo Jianning was moved; if that were the case, it would be perfect.

Then he raised his question: "Mr. Li, aren't you afraid of Red Signal Group changing hands? This isn't uncommon!"

Li Xin's laughter echoed throughout the lounge as he laughed and replied: "Director Huo, I can transfer the legal person to you right now; whatever you can take is yours, as long as you have the ability."

"If I become the legal person with authority to use company funds, how could I not take them away?"

Huo Jianning asked.

Li Xin answered confidently: "Director Huo, without even mentioning my empty-shell family office, just speaking of myself."

"Money, you can take it, but… can you spend it? In all of Gangdao, whoever dares to move my Li Xin's money is opposing me to the death, not dying until the family is exterminated—certainly not the end—and I also have the confidence to say: 'It won't be me who dies.'"

Is my answer still satisfactory, Director Huo?

Huo Jianning was shocked, looking at Li Xin before him; his words were decisive and unwavering, showing not a trace of doubt, as if it were a matter of course.

Truly an imposing figure!

Huo Jianning raised the issue of corporate management authority that concerned him most: "Director Li, how should the company's operational management rights be handled?"

You will have full responsibility; I will retain only supervisory authority. Corporate management is your professional field—I won't meddle, because I don't understand corporate management.

Leave professional matters to professionals; as long as you come, I fully trust that with your ability you will handle the company's affairs well.

As chairman, I should know my limits and not voice opinions in areas I'm not good at—Director Huo, do you still have any questions?

Li Xin asked.

Huo Jianning's expression was one of stunned disbelief!

He truly has boldness, he truly has personal charm—what great trust! What broad-mindedness! This is the Liu Huangshu he has been painstakingly seeking!

This is what the ancients said: "If you doubt people, don't use them; if you use them, don't doubt them."

If this were ancient times, he would surely say something like: "Ning, I pay my respects to my lord! In this life I will devote myself wholeheartedly, dying only after exhaustion."

Huo Jianning is not indecisive; he gave Li Xin a definite reply: "Boss, I will handle my resignation as soon as possible and report to the company promptly."

Good, that's settled then, General Manager Huo—aside from the security company and the film company, Red Signal Group is under your charge.

After the business was concluded, they each went their separate ways.

……

Harmony Yellow Group Human Resources Department.

"Director Li, this is my resignation report. Thank you to the company for always cultivating and trusting me; I've come today just to bid you farewell—may we meet again if fate allows!"

Huo Jianning spoke these polite words.

Since we're all leaving, these words are just procedure; we have to go through the motions.

Li Cucumber's eldest son Li Ju, looking at Huo Jianning before him, asked: "Director Huo, why would you want to leave Hehe Group? Is there something urgent? If so, you can take leave, handle it, then come back to work."

"Thank you, Director Li, for your retention; due to personal reasons I am unable to perform my current duties, so I must resign—you need not have any concerns."

Huo Jianning's reply was very formulaic.

Li Ju didn't believe a word of it—people have different aspirations, you can't force someone to stay; the company has so many things going on! He picked up the pen to sign.

Huo Jianning didn't have much to hand over; having just returned from his studies, he had no specific responsibilities, so the handover was quickly completed. Holding his packing box, he strode out of Hehe Group.

He stopped at the company building's entrance, looked up at the place where he had worked for three years, feeling somewhat reluctant.

Nevertheless, he hurried away.

He needed to quickly get into work mode, organize Red Signal Group thoroughly, and then he could freely write and paint on this scroll!

He was feeling very excited—this is a medium-sized enterprise!

From now on, this will be his battlefield; he must understand what forces he can mobilize in order to lead the group in charging forward.

He cannot let down his boss's trust in him.

He returned home, put away his packing box, personally prepared a big meal, and waited for his wife to come back to eat.

Usually he has no time, and his wife handles the household chores; today he has free time, so no matter what he will comfort his wife.

Huo Jianning and his wife happily enjoyed dinner at home.

The dining environment at the Li household, however, was not so pleasant.

Old Cucumber glanced at Little Cucumber with a wrong look, hastily finished dinner, and summoned Little Cucumber to the study.

That evening, upon returning, he heard his eldest son say that a financial manager named Huo Jianning had resigned; Old Cucumber's heart bled, for this was a talented individual he had observed for nearly three years.

Once the observation period ended, Huo Jianning would obtain a promotion at a speed beyond anyone's imagination.

In Huo Jianning he saw the qualities of an executive CEO; if well nurtured, he would definitely become a pillar of Hehe Group.

Now his eldest son tells him that this talent he had long observed has flown the coop!

One can imagine how furious he feels.

Old Cucumber had placed great hopes on his eldest son, expecting him to be the best successor to his career if nothing unexpected happened.

Thus suppressing his anger, he asked in a low voice: "Why wasn't I informed of this situation during work hours?"

Li Jusha's eyes widened! What's the situation?

It's just that a finance manager resigned; what's the big deal?

"Father, it's just that a finance manager resigned; how could you get so angry?".

Li Ju asked doubtfully.

Li Huanggua rubbed his sparsely haired head from front to back.

This can't be blamed on the eldest son; he never told him about this, letting him train in the finance department was just to give him some of his own team.

Now, he has unspeakable suffering!

He sighed: "Forget it, let's keep looking!".

Hmm, looking, we can definitely find excellent talent, but…… compared to the Working Emperor, we don't know how it will be.

Anyway, Li Xin is very happy!.
