"Wife, your move was way too impressive!"

When Wang Dashan learned that Xiao Du Technology's Board of Directors had re-invited Du Xiaojuan to return and take charge of the company, he was immediately astonished.

Regarding his own wife's operation, he practically admired her to the point of five-body prostration.

This series of operations not only let Du Xiaojuan get something for nothing, netting over twenty million in hand.

But Du Xiaojuan's decision-making authority in Xiao Du Technology also didn't decrease but increased instead.

Most importantly, after the company goes public next year, Du Xiaojuan won't have to withdraw from the company anymore.

This series of operations can be described as winning big time.

Du Xiaojuan said with a smile:

"Just a small matter, this result was long within expectations."

Then Du Xiaojuan added:

"However, in the future Wanjia Commodities probably cannot rely solely on Xiao Du Technology this one channel anymore; we must start expanding other channels."

Wang Dashan was stunned, puzzled:

"Why is that? Right now Wanjia Commodities and Xiao Du Technology's cooperation isn't going well? And you've returned to Xiao Du Technology in power, then Wanjia Commodities and Xiao Du Technology's cooperation should deepen further, right?"

But Du Xiaojuan shook her head:

"Your thinking is completely wrong. After this incident, all members of Xiao Du Technology's Board of Directors, except me, definitely don't want the company to continue being held hostage by Wanjia Commodities as a single supply chain. So before long, Xiao Du Technology will expand several, even over a dozen supply channels. Although I've regained the company's decision-making authority, this isn't something I alone can stop. This is the company's development trend. If I forcibly try to stop it, the capital market will lose confidence in Xiao Du Technology. Once capital loses confidence in Xiao Du Technology, Xiao Du Technology's business performance will definitely decline. If Xiao Du Technology's performance declines, Wanjia Commodities' supply volume will naturally follow and decline. So if I insist on a single source, it will do more harm than good to both Xiao Du Technology and Wanjia Commodities."

With Du Xiaojuan analyzing it like this, Wang Dashan suddenly realized.

"Put that way, Wanjia Commodities indeed should expand channels."

Du Xiaojuan then said:

"When the company Board of Directors brings up channel expansion, I'll take the initiative to tell them we can help Xiao Du Technology untie the Cooperation Agreement previously signed with Wanjia Commodities. This way, it gives Xiao Du Technology the freedom to expand channels, and also gives Wanjia Commodities the freedom to develop upward."

Wang Dashan frowned at this:

"But, Wanjia Commodities, how exactly should it expand channels?"

Miss Du said:

"It's like a real estate intermediary buying a house — run from company to company, negotiate with client after client. As long as you negotiate enough, a few will surely succeed. Additionally, you can have Hu Wanjia's side help introduce partners; his connections should be quite extensive."

Wang Dashan nodded:

"Good, then I'll go back and do as you say!"

Du Xiaojuan added:

"Right, Xiao Du Technology's few competitor companies, you can also go talk to them. I believe they should be very interested in cooperating with Wanjia Commodities, especially on those products that sold explosively at Xiao Du Technology."

Du Xiaojuan arranged Wang Dashan's side of things, let out a long breath. Starting tomorrow, she would have to return to work.

This stretch of leisurely days passed in the blink of an eye.

Time flies.

She originally thought Fang Dayong wouldn't come find her this quickly.

Unexpectedly, Fang Dayong was this decisive. To stop losses in time, the moment a problem arose, he came to negotiate with her.

And the other party showed enough sincerity; she didn't need to waste time wrangling with him too long.

So she could only go back to work.

Just, the pregnancy preparation matter agreed on before...

Du Xiaojuan felt some guilt over this.

Fortunately, Wang Dashan didn't bring it up either.

The two tacitly ignored this matter, treating it as if it never happened.

In a blink, the next day arrived.

Du Xiaojuan returned to Xiao Du Technology again.

The company's executives even held a grand welcome ceremony for Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan smiled politely, expressing thanks to them.

And stated her position: in the future she would definitely work hard to contribute to the company, strive together with everyone to make the company stronger and bigger, and accelerate the pace toward listing.

Du Xiaojuan's first Board of Directors meeting after returning to the company.

Everyone thought Du Xiaojuan would actively avoid supply chain issues. After all, Du Xiaojuan is one of Wanjia Commodities' shareholders, and is highly bound together with Du Xiaojuan. Du Xiaojuan shouldn't be too keen on Xiao Du Technology and Wanjia Commodities unbinding.

But unexpectedly, at the Board meeting, the first thing Du Xiaojuan raised was the supply chain issue.

"The company's current supply source is far too singular. Seventy to eighty percent is all supplied by Wanjia Commodities. This is equivalent to our Xiao Du Technology possibly being strangled by Wanjia Commodities at any time. For the company's development, this is absolutely not a good thing. So I plan to shift focus next to expanding supply channels, to avoid the company being manipulated by a single source again. What are everyone's views on this?"

Everyone hearing Du Xiaojuan's proposal all showed a hint of surprise.

Everyone thought Du Xiaojuan would desperately protect Wanjia Commodities.

So when holding this Board meeting, many executives had privately agreed beforehand that if Du Xiaojuan desperately shielded them at the meeting, they would gang up on Du Xiaojuan and raise strong opposition.

Never expected Du Xiaojuan would now actively propose unbinding from Wanjia Commodities. Isn't this equivalent to all their advance preparations going to waste?

Completely unusable!

"General Manager Du, are you sure you really want Xiao Du Technology to unbind from Wanjia Commodities? I heard you're one of Wanjia Commodities' shareholders."

An executive asked this one sentence.

Du Xiaojuan didn't evade at all, answering directly:

"That's right, I am indeed one of the shareholders of Wanjia Commodities, but this time Xiao Du Technology being manipulated by Wanjia Commodities was not my intention. My decision-making authority in Wanjia Commodities isn't as heavy as Hu Wanjia's; I'm just a minor shareholder. Compared to Wanjia Commodities' benefit, I care more about Xiao Du Technology's benefit. After all, Xiao Du Technology is my own flesh and blood."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

Half-believing, half-doubting.

At this moment, Fang Dayong spoke up for Du Xiaojuan with a smile:

"General Manager Du, this should be the honest truth. Wanjia Commodities belongs to Hu Wanjia, just as Xiao Du Technology belongs to General Manager Du. From the company names, one can see who the true person in charge is. General Manager Du's return this time is to personally operate the company's supply chain expansion matter. I hope everyone can give more support to General Manager Du's work."

Since Fang Dayong put it this way, everyone naturally had nothing more to say.

Moreover, this is also a good thing.

They didn't want to experience being held hostage and extorted by a single source of goods again.

This matter happening once was already choking enough.

Just this one time, Xiao Du Technology's valuation in the capital market was severely knocked down.

The losses caused by this are incalculable.

Besides, even if Du Xiaojuan didn't bring up this matter, they would still push it forward.

Now that Du Xiaojuan has taken the initiative to raise it, that's naturally nothing better.

Pushing it forward will also be easier.

Thus, Du Xiaojuan's first Board of Directors meeting upon returning to Xiao Du Technology was concluded smoothly just like that. The whole company was of one mind, unanimously agreeing to the supply chain's expansion.
