Chapter 289

Dense footsteps passed through the office area of the Marketing Planning Department, and a solemn and tense atmosphere permeated the air.

It seemed that they noticed the gaze they projected.

Wen Ruan turned her head slightly, scanning toward this side.

Their gazes met, and one old colleague after another subconsciously averted their eyes.

Several people who were still secretly discussing the other party hurriedly lowered their heads, expressions of panic and unease appearing on their faces.

"Bang!" Li Meiling opened her mouth wide, the coffee cup she was holding fell to the table, then rolled to the ground, spilling everywhere.

Her eyebrows twitched violently, and she hurriedly began to clean up in a panic.

After nodding gently to several old colleagues with a smile, Wen Ruan looked forward again, following the crowd and disappearing around the corner of the hallway.

After the office area was quiet for a few seconds, a "buzzing" discussion sound rang out instantly.

"What's going on? Is that Wen Ruan?"

"Definitely! How come she feels like a different person, looking even more imposing than our leaders."

"Isn't she here to do the resignation handover today? How come she came over with the capital side?"

"Just now, that standing position, why do I feel Wen Ruan is the representative of this acquisition?"

"Could it also be that she knows that female executive of the other party?"

…

Listening to their nervous and anxious discussion, Zhang Xintong, with a flushed face, couldn't stop her legs from shaking.

As Sister Wen Ruan's die-hard assistant, I'm going to make it big!

I was the righteous partner who bravely stood up when Sister Wen Ruan was hard-steel against Liu Chuanzheng!

A salary of 5000 can no longer suppress me! I want to earn 8000!

Li Meiling gritted her teeth and wiped the table clean, but at this moment, she didn't dare to say a word.

Although she hated Wen Ruan and often tripped her up, she still had emotional intelligence.

No matter how you look at it, the current Wen Ruan was terrifyingly strong, even their serious and domineering Chairman Zhang Shun had to treat her carefully.

For a time, Li Meiling felt confused and fearful in her heart.

Having been in the company for so long, she knew the other party's situation like the back of her hand.

Just an ordinary person with a relatively high degree; if there was any special point, it was probably that she had a young and promising boyfriend.

This was also the point she was most jealous of Wen Ruan for.

Just then, "tap-tap-tap" footsteps rang out again.

Human Resources Director Peng Haijing walked out from the direction of the large conference room.

Stopping as she passed the Marketing Planning Department, she asked somewhat urgently: "Who in our department has the best relationship with Wen Ruan?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Zhang Xintong stood up without hesitation: "Director Peng, me, me, me! Is there something?"

Peng Haijing scanned the circle, nodded: "Xintong, Wenwen and the others are making tea, you go over and help serve it in a moment, and by the way, ask if Wen Ruan has any requirements, and inform me in time!"

"Alright!" Zhang Xintong's eyes instantly lit up.

She was about to take off with Sister Wen Ruan, so naturally, she had to show her stance and declare her identity as "Wen Ruan's best colleague."

Other colleagues had a premonition that things were not simple.

Peng Haijing was the earliest HR in the company and also Chairman Zhang Shun's confidant; it was said that the relationship between the two was very unusual.

Being able to make her value it so much was enough to explain Wen Ruan's status.

A female colleague who had a good relationship with Peng Haijing couldn't help but ask: "Sister Haijing, Wen Ruan coming over this time, didn't she say she was doing resignation handover? How come…"

"Stop!" Peng Haijing said with a face full of nervousness: "Don't talk nonsense, Wen Ruan's resignation before was because of Liu Chuanzheng's deliberate slander, the company leadership has already investigated the cause, now Liu Chuanzheng has received legal sanctions, Wen Ruan is still our company's employee!"

The resignation handover wasn't finished, the resignation certificate wasn't issued, Wen Ruan didn't sign, so everything could still be remedied.

Regarding the major event of the company's life and death, Peng Haijing naturally had to show her attitude.

Hearing this excited and serious speech from Director Peng, even a fool knew something was wrong.

Wen Ruan was absolutely closely related to the acquisition party that came this time.

A colleague whispered: "Sister Haijing, why is Wen Ruan together with the capital side leaders?"

"Yeah, can this be revealed?"

As the company's HR director, they had all dealt with Peng Haijing, and quite a few of them had good relationships with her.

So asking didn't hide much.

Peng Haijing was silent for a moment, whispering: "Wen Ruan is one of the main representatives of this acquisition party."

"Wow—" A burst of uncontrollable clamor rang out.

"Quiet! Quiet!"

Everyone hurriedly closed their mouths, but the shock and astonishment in their eyes could still not be hidden.

Peng Haijing had a solemn face: "Everyone is Wen Ruan's colleague for many years, and you work in one department, I hope you can say some good words for the company privately, so that everyone's work can be guaranteed."

The wrong layoff decision made by the leadership before increased the difficulty of this negotiation.

The only thing that could be done now was to try to make up for the previous mistakes.

"Received!" A clever colleague hurriedly responded.

Guangying Media was not a small company, this acquisition was in the hundreds of millions.

It was enough to prove the strength of the capital side.

And Wen Ruan actually became the representative of the other party.

Everyone could figure out the meaning of this.

More importantly, once the acquisition was completed, what position would Wen Ruan be in?

It couldn't be just an ordinary team leader in the Marketing Planning Department, right?

It might directly become a vice president level figure!

It might even directly replace Liu Chuanzheng and serve as the executive vice president.

If so, all their attendance, salary, and work would be managed by Wen Ruan.

Some colleagues who had conflicts with Wen Ruan had bitterness in their mouths.

Li Meiling grinned, her face turning red and white.

She suddenly realized one thing.

That President He of Meigou Technology in the Imperial Capital might really have come for Wen Ruan.

So to say…

Why? How could it be? What does she rely on?

Li Meiling shook uncontrollably, paralyzed on the seat powerlessly.

Only feeling a cold air stabbing from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, her mind was blank.

…

On the way to the tea room following HR Director Peng Haijing, Zhang Xintong's footsteps were light.

Even secretly pinching her thigh, confirming many times that this wasn't a dream.

Originally thinking of following Sister Wen Ruan to the branch of Xingyun International Group, she was still somewhat anxious about future development.

Now looking at this posture, they were afraid they would still stay at Guangying Media.

And she, a plain planning specialist who walked out of the countryside and had just graduated for a year, ushered in the brightest turning point in her life.

Sometimes, choice is more important than effort.

In this life, as long as you can meet a noble person and follow the other party's footsteps closely, you can change your life.

She was now incomparably glad for her previous choice.

After being busy in the tea room for a while.

Following Peng Haijing's instructions, Zhang Xintong and several female colleagues from the Administration Department carried trays and walked into the lively large conference room one after another.

"Sister Wen Ruan, drink tea." Zhang Xintong came to Wen Ruan's side with a clear goal, gently placing a cup of tea in front of her.

Hearing the familiar voice, Wen Ruan, who was listening to Ji Ji Qiuyu and others talking, turned sideways and smiled: "Thanks Xintong, you've worked hard."

"It should be!" Zhang Xintong had never been as excited as she was now, "Director Peng asked me to ask you, do you have any other requirements?"

"No, you go do your work."

Zhang Xintong hurriedly said: "Then I'll stand at the door, Sister Wen Ruan, if you need anything, just call me directly."

"Alright, as you wish." Wen Ruan shook her head amusedly, seeing what she was thinking at a glance.

She had always had a very good impression of this assistant of hers—kind, sensible, clever, capable, without so many crooked thoughts.

Could be considered a rare good helper.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to invite her to follow to Xingyun International.

But well, now that she had tossed and turned and returned to Guangying Media, this little assistant would naturally rise with the tide.

A bright smile appeared on Zhang Xintong's face, she put down the remaining tea, carried the tray, and was about to leave.

A 40-year-old middle-aged man beside her suddenly spoke: "Chairman Zhang, wait a moment, the legal person in charge of our Xingyun International will arrive soon, and then we will formally start the meeting."

"Alright."

Hearing the four words "Xingyun International," Zhang Xintong's heart jumped, not knowing how she walked out of the conference room.

Oh my god! Xingyun International wants to acquire Guangying Media???

No wonder! No wonder Sister Wen Ruan appeared here!

Standing outside the conference room door, leaning against the wall, Zhang Xintong's heart was surging.

Began to fantasize about her beautiful future.

Just then, another burst of footsteps came.

"Tap-tap-tap—" The speed wasn't fast, but it was very steady and firm.

Immediately after, at the corner of the hallway, the figure of the company's general assistant Li Moying appeared, followed by 4 middle-aged men in formal wear carrying briefcases.

The leader was still an old hand, handsome face, simple hairstyle, side-parted hair bulging backward, mature and steady, image and temperament were excellent.

His footsteps were calm and confident, his eyes deep and sharp, and there was a calmness on his face that the sky wouldn't collapse.

General Assistant Li accompanied him on the side, bending his waist slightly, his posture very low.

Zhang Xintong turned her brain slightly and guessed the other party's identity.

Legal counsel of Xingyun International Group.

Damn! As expected of a big enterprise, even the legal counsel has such an aura!

Soon, this group of people arrived at the door of the large conference room.

Zhang Xintong subconsciously moved her steps to the side.

General Assistant Li Moying knocked on the conference room door, waited for a moment, and gently pushed it open.

"Chairman Zhang, the lawyer from Xingyun International Group has arrived."

"Please come in!"

Immediately after, four lawyers in formal wear walked into the spacious and bright large conference room.

"Thump!" Ji Ji Qiuyu, sitting in the first seat, stood up suddenly, the chair behind her leaning back slightly.

She pursed her lips hard, her eyes somewhat astonished: "Director Luo! How come you came in person?"

The legal business of Xingyun International Group was indeed outsourced to the Quanjing Law Firm.

But she never thought that it would be the person in charge of the firm, the chief partner Luo Bin, who arrived in person, which made her flattered for a while.

This person was not only a top big lawyer, but also a shareholder and director of many large enterprises, a real big shot.

Of course, what made her most in awe was the other party's identity as a supervisor of the board of directors of Tang Zong Entertainment.

He and Mo Xiang Wan and Su Yu had known each other for a long time, and their relationship was extraordinary.

A faint smile appeared on Luo Bin's face, "Just happened to come to Yancheng to handle some things, it can be considered on the way."

"Thank you very much for your attention." Ji Ji Qiuyu stepped forward quickly.

Seeing the attitude of this President Ji, Wen Ruan also realized that the person who came was not ordinary, and hurriedly stood up, leaving her seat.

In order to show attention, she was arranged by Ji Ji Qiuyu to the side.

Now naturally she had to let go.

Immediately after, Guangying Media's external lawyer also stepped forward quickly.

With an excited and nervous expression, he reached out his hand: "Lawyer Luo, it's an honor to see you! I am Zhou Guangqian from Hetu Law Firm, last year at the Financial Law Forum, I heard your speech."

"Hello, Lawyer Zhou."

Chairman Zhang Shun, sitting in his seat, had his gaze slightly condensed, stood up with a smile, and stepped forward: "Lawyer Luo, I am the Chairman of Guangying Media, Zhang Shun."

"Hello." Luo Bin performed politely and calmly.

Seeming to be worried that this Chairman Zhang would misunderstand, Lawyer Zhou beside him hurriedly explained: "Chairman Zhang, this is the Director of Quanjing Law Firm, Chief Partner, Director Luo Bin. Quanjing is one of the 8 major Red Circle firms, and also the most top-tier law firm in the country."

Hearing this, Zhang Shun paused slightly, the smile on his face becoming even more enthusiastic, "Thank you very much Director Luo for your attention to our company!"

He naturally knew the famous Quanjing Law Firm, but didn't expect the background to be so big.

Accompanied by the attitudes of Ji Ji Qiuyu and Zhang Shun, the focus of the whole conference room shifted to this big lawyer who suddenly appeared.

Zhang Xintong, hiding at the door, peeked inside, her little heart jumping "thump-thump."

No wonder the aura is so strong, it turns out to be a real big shot!

I have really made it, seeing the person in charge of the top law firm in the country!

Maybe when I go in to serve tea and water later, I can even say a word.

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild.

Luo Bin reached out to adjust the button of his tie, revealing a gentle and kind smile, facing one direction: "Hello Ms. Wen Ruan, very happy to meet you. Formally introduce, I am Luo Bin, and also President Tang's private lawyer. Coming here this time, mainly wanting to chat with you about equity trading, and the signing of the power of attorney."

In an instant, the conference room became quiet.

Everyone's gaze looked at Wen Ruan standing by the wall.

Even Ji Ji Qiuyu was stunned for a moment.

Does this "President Tang" refer to Tang Song?

Although she knew Tang Song was very unusual, she never thought he was this unusual.

This is Luo Bin! Actually his private lawyer, and even came out to run business in person? Sign power of attorney?

This scene can probably be compared to Su Yu running to a 3rd-rate web drama to guest star, unbelievable.

Wen Ruan gently pursed her lips, hurriedly responding: "Hello Director Luo, you've worked hard!"

Also once again felt the weight of her little boyfriend.

Before in the Imperial Capital, he said he would entrust a lawyer to help her fully handle the holding agreement and equity transfer.

But she didn't expect the lawyer he referred to would have such a big background.

As expected of the man that both Su Yu and I fell for.

Luo Bin nodded at her with a smile, "We will chat about the specific content separately after the meeting, let's solve Guangying Media's matter first."

As he spoke, Luo Bin's steady and restrained gaze sized up Wen Ruan opposite him.

Regardless of appearance or temperament, she was indeed a very charming woman.

Compared to the previous signer Zhao Yaqian, Wen Ruan appeared exceptionally normal and outstanding.

At least she graduated from a prestigious school, had been deeply involved in the media field for many years, and her personal quality and conduct were also very easy to check out.

Unlike Zhao Yaqian, this was a mature and rational woman with her own way of thinking.

And she wasn't young, and in the future, it might involve offspring and inheritance.

So even for the sake of the child, she would definitely want to get more.

Where there is desire, there will be interest disputes.

This was probably why both Chairman Jin and Su Yu wanted to win her over.

And Tang Song directly made a move, arranging for Wen Ruan to hold some shares of Xingyun International, was it to beat and pull Chairman Jin and Su Yu?

Regarding this point, he didn't know.

But he extremely trusted this cold, rational, and meticulous President Tang.

After all, he almost never made mistakes.

…

After simple pleasantries, everyone took their seats again.

Luo Bin nodded slightly to signal everyone, gracefully pulled out the chair beside Wen Ruan and sat down, gently placing the briefcase aside.

Sitting upright and natural, revealing an innate professional temperament.

A negotiation regarding the acquisition of Guangying Media was formally opened.

Luo Bin also joined in as the person in charge of this legal review.

Once involved in work, his whole spirit changed.

The voice was low and magnetic, every word was clear and powerful, explaining the compliance of the transaction terms in an orderly manner.

His hands made concise gestures at the right time, assisting his explanation.

Gradually, the whole conference room seemed to be shrouded in his aura.

…

Zhang Xintong, hiding outside the door, patted her frantically jumping little heart.

Licked her dry lips, took out her phone, and began to search for keywords, "Quanjing Law Firm," "Luo Bin."

Gradually her mouth opened wider and wider.

Quanjing Law Firm was a global legal service institution, possessing 19 offices, more than 400 partners, and more than 2000 professional lawyers at home and abroad, and was one of the internationally recognized, excellent large-scale comprehensive law firms.

And this Luo Bin was also very famous, according to the introduction on the encyclopedia, he was also the chairman of the management committee of Quanjing, frequently reported by professional media, and was a real social celebrity.

Good guy! Is my Sister Wen Ruan so prestigious?

Is my brother-in-law Tang Song so awesome?

Doesn't that mean I, Zhang Xintong, am also going to be awesome?

Stamping her feet hard, Zhang Xintong felt that her eyes were full of light, as if she had arrived at the other shore of heaven.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, she hurriedly took out her phone, opened WeChat, and pinned the chat box of Tang Song and Wen Ruan to the top.

Then she sent a message to Tang Song, describing the matter of Wen Ruan coming to Guangying Media today.

…

3 o'clock in the afternoon.

A heavy news spread in the company's internal group.

And it was quickly confirmed.

The head enterprise in the domestic media field, Xingyun International Group, adopted a method of cash + bonds to fully acquire Yancheng Guangying Media Co., Ltd.

At the same time, both sides signed a harsh gambling agreement, ensuring that Guangying Media's original business could remain stable.

Just as all employees were cheering and celebrating.

Another more shocking news came.

The company's executive director and president would be served by Wen Ruan.

……

9 o'clock at night.

Beicheng Garden Residential Area.

The tightly closed anti-theft door was gently pulled open, and Shen Yu Yan walked in with a tired body.

Throwing the bag aside, she lay on the soft sofa.

Resting with her eyes closed for a long while, her spirit gradually recovered quite a bit.

Poured a cup of hot water, and while drinking, came to the door of the guest bedroom.

"Dong-dong-dong—" knocking twice gently, Shen Yu Yan pushed the door and walked in directly.

"Ah!" Xu Qing, who was immersed in a self-forgetful state, exclaimed, hurriedly switching the computer screen and taking off her headphones, "Sister Yan Yan, you're back?"

Shen Yu Yan raised her eyebrows, teasing with a smile: "Hehe, writing doujinshi again? You really have an addiction."

"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" Xu Qing's face was red and hot, her eyes wandering.

Different from the outsourcing work at the law firm, after joining Fanfusu Culture Media, she only needed to be responsible for the contract compliance review of the company, and the work was much, much easier.

Also had more time to code words.

She could complete all tasks for today during the day at the company.

She, Miss Xu Qing, was destined to become a small shareholder of the company in the future, so it was only right to enjoy it.

Returning home at night, naturally, it was to write some little things she liked.

In her story, the male lead Tang Song had already slapped the green tea bitch Liu Ruyan several times, and also discovered the hidden face of the obsessed girl Xiao Jing.

Every time she, Xu Sister Yan Yan, was present, completing the final act of acting cool, it was really refreshing.

Now she was writing the plot of rewarding the male lead, although they were all edge-ball content, it was exceptionally exciting to write.

Shen Yu Yan knocked on her forehead speechlessly, suddenly asking: "Tomorrow, Tang Song's due diligence on Fanfusu will begin, right?"

"Mm-hmm, yeah, all the company's materials are printed, prepared very fully."

Shen Yu Yan let out a breath, Tang Song's figure flashed in her mind, and she said: "I plan to talk to Fanfusu about the business outsourcing of marketing promotion, I will also go to your company tomorrow."

The due diligence of Youjie Housekeeping had been completed, and it was agreed to pay the first payment within a week.

Her whole person relaxed.

With this money arriving, she could increase the promotion of the platform.

Various advertisements she had been looking forward to could also be arranged.

Guo Liyuan was also very face-giving, the quotes sent were basically cost prices.

Much lower than those media companies she consulted.

Just happened to have this opportunity, she couldn't help but want to go and see the due diligence of Fanfusu with her own eyes.

20 million financing! Promoted by herself!

Every time she thought of her previous decision, Shen Yu Yan would feel a stabbing pain.

"By the way, will Tang Song himself go tomorrow?"

Xu Qing shook her head hard, "I don't know, why are you asking this?"

Shen Yu Yan said calmly: "Nothing, just pure curiosity."

"I'll ask him." Xu Qing quickly picked up her phone, found Tang Song's chat box, and clicked in.

She hadn't seen Tang Song for a long time either.

This guy didn't post on Moments either, her inspiration was a bit lacking now, she had to go get some material.

Of course, she wouldn't admit that she was looking for material for doujinshi, after all, that was just on the way.

Xu Qing's pitch-black eyeballs rolled around, leaving a message: "Tang Song, due diligence starts tomorrow, will you come to Yuhua Business Building?"

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

【Tang Song: "Don't know."】

Shen Yu Yan, who was peeking, was stunned, not understanding what this meant.

Xu Qing beside her gritted her teeth, complained in a low voice, opened the album, found a beautiful photo, and shared it.

Soon, another message popped up.

【Tang Song: "Arrive around 10 am (#smiley face)."】

Xu Qing raised her eyebrows triumphantly, murmuring: "My Miss Xu Qing's beautiful photo went out, little Song Zi directly bowed down!"

Shen Yu Yan, who saw this scene with her own eyes, had her mouth twitch.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

This best friend of hers is really a talent!

The key is, how did they form this kind of tacit understanding?
