Chapter 762: 757. Coercion (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
Feng Hui stood at the doorway for a long time, watching the direction in which Zhang Ran had left, unable to collect his thoughts for quite a while.
In truth, a large part of the reason he made such a decision at this time was because of his father, Feng Lian.
Although Feng Lian is old now and lacks the energy for many things, and also does not have a sufficient understanding of many matters within the company.
However, regarding Zhang Ran's affairs, Feng Lian still had a fairly good understanding and was clear about Zhang Ran's character.
Therefore, regarding this matter, Feng Lian offered frank advice.
Yes, it was just advice; after all, Feng Hui is the one in charge now, and Feng Lian would not use his own experience to force Feng Hui to do anything, he was merely giving advice.
In the end, Feng Hui followed his father's advice and was frank with Zhang Ran about this matter.
The next day, Feng Hui went to work as usual and did not show anything, only holding a meeting in the morning.
"Mr. Zhang will be coming to inspect in a few days. Everyone, pull yourselves together during this recent period and don't let any accidents happen at this time," Feng Hui exhorted.
He did not say that Zhang Ran had already arrived; at this moment, he clearly knew what Zhang Ran wanted to do, so he was quite cooperative.
Upon hearing this, some in the crowd were indifferent, some had flickering eyes, some were secretly praying in their hearts, and others did not know what they were looking forward to.
Almost everyone had their own calculations; in a company, apart from the initial startup phase, it is almost impossible for hearts to be completely united.
Especially in a company of massive scale, where everyone has their own interests and demands.
Don't look at the fact that Feng Hui is the CEO now; there are countless people eyeing his position, which is also the reason why Feng Hui considers so much in many matters.
He does not want to make mistakes, and even less does he want to be removed by Zhang Ran due to his own competence or issues with his contributions to the company.
This is also a downside of Yaotian Pharmaceutical, at least in the eyes of someone like Feng Hui.
Because the control of the company is actually always in Zhang Ran's hands, and other scattered shareholders pose absolutely no threat to Zhang Ran.
This means that a CEO like him has no real sense of security, because to tell the truth, his position is just a matter of a single word from Zhang Ran.
Although it also represents some interests, as long as Zhang Ran can harden his heart, he has no room for resistance at all.
"Chairman, roughly when will Mr. Zhang arrive?" Lin Xiong asked, appearing casual.
Feng Hui said: "In these few days; I'm not very clear on the specifics either, and there is still a pile of things over at Maikai Supermarket right now.
By the way, do you all know about the Maikai Supermarket situation?"
"I know a little."
"I'm not too clear on it."
The crowd answered one after another; some were very clear about what had happened, while others really did not know much about it.
After all, it is already cross-industry, so news is actually not as fluid as one might imagine, and everyone is actually somewhat indifferent to many things.
"Regardless of whether you know or don't know, I can tell you that Mr. Zhang is in a very bad mood. This time, if anyone annoys Mr. Zhang because of some small matter, then don't blame me for not reminding you in advance," Feng Hui said.
It appears he is considering things for everyone, but in reality, he is forcing Lin Xiong and these people to take some countermeasures.
Telling Lin Xiong and these people that Zhang Ran's mood is very poor means that if he hears any rumors later, he will likely be very angry.
And in his anger, Zhang Ran will certainly thoroughly investigate some matters, at which point Lin Xiong and these people will definitely not be able to hide things.
So they need to eliminate all hidden dangers before Zhang Ran arrives; at the very least, there cannot be any problems while Zhang Ran is here.
Especially when Zhang Ran is in a bad mood, many things that might have been small matters originally could be blown out of proportion; Lin Xiong and the others should be very clear about this point.
It is unknown whether Lin Xiong and the others understood Feng Hui's words; everyone remained silent, only nodding silently while thinking about the gains and losses in their own work.
"Chairman, does Mr. Zhang have any other instructions?" someone asked.
"No, the specifics should just be to inspect the situation, especially regarding the financial side," Feng Hui said.
The Supervisor of the Finance Department felt a tightening in their heart, but upon recalling the situation on their end, there shouldn't be any major problems.
But what needs to be checked still needs to be checked thoroughly; they must not let any problems arise.
The meeting lasted for over an hour, with more than half of that time spent discussing the reception of Zhang Ran, and only a small portion spent discussing work matters, about which everyone was still somewhat inattentive.
There is no help for it; who let Zhang Ran be the Big Boss, and also the person who can decide their professional future.
Perhaps there are still quite a few people who want to create some trouble for their competitors, or put in a bad word for their opponents in front of Zhang Ran.
This is also very normal; after all, where there is competition, there is a world of conflict.
After the meeting adjourned, Lin Xiong found a random excuse to leave, and then began arranging various matters.
"Zhang Ran is about to come; how is it on Zhao Feng's side?" Lin Xiong asked, somewhat anxiously.
"This guy's temper is truly too foul, and I feel he is somewhat insatiable," Zhao Kui said, frowning.
"What's going on? Insatiable?" Lin Xiong was stunned.
"I prepared to give him five hundred thousand, but he didn't seem very satisfied. Anyway, I feel he just thinks the money is too little; he really refuses a toast only to drink a forfeit," Zhao Kui said hatefully.
In fact, while Lin Xiong and the others were having their meeting, Zhao Kui had already found Zhao Feng. Of course, he didn't say it so explicitly, but the meaning between the lines was also expressed: it was to give money to make Zhao Feng shut up.
Zhao Feng was naturally unwilling; he was not a person who valued money too highly to begin with, so he refused without hesitation and also fiercely scolded Zhao Kui.
Because Zhao Kui was actually an apprentice brought up by Zhao Feng, and could be considered Zhao Feng's first apprentice; their relationship was very good at the time, but now it can be said they are like strangers.
But in Zhao Kui's view, Zhao Feng was actually just somewhat dissatisfied with the amount of money; after all, to someone like him, money is omnipotent.
No one would dislike money!
Of course, perhaps Zhao Kui had other thoughts, but apart from himself, no one knew about that.
Zhao Kui had always scoffed at many of Zhao Feng's philosophies; he looked down on Zhao Feng, so after his rank surpassed Zhao Feng's, Zhao Kui couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Zhao Feng and had never gone to look for him.
Even though his promotion back then actually had a not-insignificant connection to Zhao Feng, Zhao Kui was not grateful in the slightest.
"Then proceed as you said," Lin Xiong said, taking a deep breath.
