Chapter 761: 756. A Person Cannot Lose Their Conscience (Please Subscribe and Vote)
Looking at his wife's earnest gaze, Zhao Feng felt immensely moved in his heart; having met such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?
What virtue or ability did he, Zhao Feng, possess to be able to have such a wife!
"Alright, I'll make you something delicious in a while, and then we'll leave tomorrow. You can go do what you need to do with peace of mind, but you must also be careful," his wife said.
Zhao Feng nodded and said, "I know. They wouldn't dare do anything to me, really. What I fear is them using you all to threaten me."
"Mm, just be careful. Our son and I will protect ourselves well," his wife said.
Their son, standing to the side, inexplicably felt as if he had no presence at all, just like a little transparent person.
Zhang Ran arrived at Feng Hui's home, where he looked at some financial reports and data situations that Feng Hui had brought over.
"Mr. Zhang, recently our 'Yong Ge' sales situation has been getting better and better, and the market has expanded a lot, especially the overseas market.
And as the reputation of 'Yong Ge' gets better and better, I believe the market share it occupies will also continue to grow," Feng Hui said, sitting to the side with a smile.
Although Feng Hui's expression was relaxed, his mood was not relaxed at all; he did not know what Zhang Ran's purpose was in coming here.
After all, he also knew about the incident that had just happened at Maikai Supermarket, and he knew even better that the situation at Yaotian Pharmaceutical was much more serious than that of Maikai Supermarket.
However, Zhang Ran did not mention this matter, as if he were completely unaware.
"Not bad. Under your leadership, Yaotian Pharmaceutical is doing very well. The performance hasn't been affected at all. This is truly very good," Zhang Ran praised.
Upon hearing this, Feng Hui immediately said, "Thank you for the praise, Mr. Zhang. There are still major flaws in what I have done, and I still need to improve."
This was originally just a humble remark, but who would have thought that Zhang Ran would close the documents and ask with a smile, "Oh? Then tell me, what flaws are there?"
Feng Hui was stunned, and then he didn't know what to say. What did Zhang Ran mean by this?
Could it be that he had sensed something?
For a moment, Feng Hui didn't know what Zhang Ran's true intention was. Was he just asking casually?
Seeing him in this state, Zhang Ran felt some disappointment in his eyes; this was the last chance he was giving Feng Hui.
If Feng Hui had seized this opportunity and told the truth, then Zhang Ran would still consider letting Feng Hui continue to sit in this position.
But...
Just as Zhang Ran was preparing to change the subject, he saw Feng Hui grit his teeth and say, "Mr. Zhang, there have indeed been some problems within the company."
Feng Hui did not know if Zhang Ran had sensed it, but at this moment he dared not gamble, and in fact, Feng Hui had already made up his mind.
Previously, he felt that such matters were minor; after all, everyone was still very restrained at that time, and it was all on a small scale.
Feng Hui was also just starting to hold power and needed the support of certain people.
Furthermore, he could not let the company fall into chaos, as that would make the company's performance very poor, which was not a good thing for him.
After all, for a company CEO, to put it simply, as long as the company suffers losses under your watch, then it is the CEO's fault; this is indisputable.
That was why Feng Hui had chosen to remain silent on this matter before; he needed to wait until his foundation was stable before he would set about handling these things.
In this way, it was the best choice for both the company and himself personally.
But at this very moment, he already felt that things were slowly deviating from his control; these were some clues he had sensed recently.
Now Zhang Ran had arrived, and with the Maikai Supermarket incident preceding this, Feng Hui did not want to continue hiding it anymore.
Zhang Ran's expression was indifferent. "Oh, what kind of problems?"
Feng Hui took a deep breath and slowly said, "Some people within the company have had problems regarding the procurement of medicinal materials.
Some people are passing off inferior goods as quality ones, and it has already begun to form a certain scale in the market.
Now the company's yield rate of quality products is gradually declining, and the number of defective products is much higher than before."
Zhang Ran said calmly, "Oh? There is such a thing?"
Feng Hui did not know if Zhang Ran really didn't know or was pretending not to know, but since he had already spoken, he could only continue.
"There is, and the situation has gradually become serious. Now more and more people are getting involved," Feng Hui said.
"Then have you thought about how to solve it? And why haven't I heard you mention it before?" Zhang Ran said calmly.
Seeing Zhang Ran's calm gaze, Feng Hui finally understood at this moment that Zhang Ran must have known about this matter, or else Zhang Ran actually did not care about this matter at all.
Compared to the former, Feng Hui naturally hoped that Zhang Ran did not care much about such things, but from the bottom of his heart, he did not want Zhang Ran to be the latter.
Such emotions were very contradictory.
As the CEO, he was duty-bound when problems arose in the company, let alone such matters of passing off inferior goods as quality ones.
But if the Big Boss of the company did not care about such things, then it would be beneficial for him as the CEO.
However, as a person with some conscience, he also understood that if Zhang Ran had such a mindset, then for many people, it would not be a good thing.
"I previously thought that I would wait until I had fully grasped the company and established authority within it, and then slowly resolve this matter, so I did not report it to you in time.
Moreover, the matter was only on a small scale before, and the quality issues were not very significant. Although there would be a higher rate of defective products, the price was also relatively lower than before, so overall it was still tolerable.
And this was also beneficial for us to expand our influence in the medicinal materials market, which also had certain benefits for the company," Feng Hui said.
Zhang Ran nodded noncommittally but did not say anything, just watching Feng Hui silently.
Feng Hui braced himself and continued, "However, with this situation, they have become increasingly unscrupulous, and there are many things that I actually don't understand very well.
You also know that my foundation within the company is actually not very stable, and every senior executive has their own ideas.
I cannot truly and completely control the company, at least not right now, and some things have slipped out of my control."
Zhang Ran looked at Feng Hui. "Then how do you hope to solve it?"
"I don't know. According to my thoughts, it is to solve it slowly; this is the best approach for the company and for me personally." Feng Hui understood some things by now, so he did not hide his thoughts anymore.
Zhang Ran did not express any opinion, handed the documents to He Qing, and stood up to walk outside.
However, just as he was about to leave, Zhang Ran suddenly said, "Money can never be earned in full, and I am not short of money, but a person's conscience cannot be lost. If it is lost, then one is nothing. Such people will also be spurned by others. Some money can be earned, but some money cannot be earned."
