Chapter 173 Because the new chairman is me
Chapter 173 Because the new chairman is me
It was daytime, and after putting on the [Night Vision] title, Lu Ran found that his vision hadn't changed much, so he didn't pay any more attention to it.
···
Several days passed, and the day of Chu Yunhui's wedding drew ever closer.
In the past few days, apart from occasionally handling the construction project of the welfare amusement park, Lu Ran had few other matters to attend to at the company. Today, being relatively free, Lu Ran went to Bai Yongxiang to inquire about the progress of the wedding company.
The two agreed to meet at People's Square. When Lu Ran arrived at the square in his car, Bai Yongxiang was already waiting for him at the agreed intersection, waving to him from the roadside.
Lu Ran stopped his car next to him.
Bai Yongxiang smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, how about I drive?"
Lu Ran suddenly said that he wanted to go to the wedding company with him. Bai Yongxiang had gone out with someone to handle some business not long ago, so he didn't drive. He originally planned to go back and drive, but it was too much of a detour to drive home now, so he had to wait for Lu Ran near the square.
Bai Yongxiang tactfully offered to drive, since Lu Ran was the boss, and it wouldn't make sense for the boss to drive.
"No need, just come on up!"
"it is good."
It's not suitable to park on the roadside for a long time, so Bai Yongxiang didn't waste any time. When he heard Lu Ran say that, he opened the passenger door and got in.
Smart people should know that you shouldn't sit in the back seat when your boss is driving.
"Mr. Lu, where are we going?"
Lu Ran only told him to go to the wedding planning company, but didn't specify what to look at. Bai Yongxiang only knew a department manager at that wedding planning company, and that was all. So his reputation wasn't very valuable to them.
Bai Yongxiang was worried that if President Lu went there and something happened between them, he wouldn't know how to handle it.
"Besides checking how the wedding clothes and car for my buddy are going, I also want to sign a contract."
"Sign a contract? Mr. Lu, are you referring to the wedding car rental contract? Actually, Mr. Lu doesn't need to make a special trip; I can handle all of this."
Lu Ran smiled and said, "Of course I trust you to handle things, but this contract really can't be signed without my presence."
Bai Yongxiang didn't quite understand, but since the boss wasn't going to explain, he wisely refrained from asking further and instead said:
"I've already contacted Manager He from their company. Manager He is the marketing manager, specifically in charge of receiving clients. Mr. Lu, you are their company's biggest client ever. Unless you're stupid, you should have already arranged how to receive us."
"However, this company has recently run into some trouble. It seems that there has been a change in the senior management, so there may be some unrest among the lower-level employees."
"Of course, Mr. Lu, you can rest assured that it will not affect the service for wedding cars and wedding attire."
Bai Yongxiang said this to give Lu Ran a heads-up in advance, so that if anyone inside offended President Lu, he could at least give his boss a heads-up.
"clear."
The two drove to an office building. The company's name sign was displayed next to the main entrance, which read "Jiahe Wedding Planning Co., Ltd."
"Why is nobody here?"
Apart from the security guard at the gate, there was no one else at the entrance, which made Bai Yongxiang look somewhat embarrassed.
He had called He Changyu in advance. Logically speaking, as the company's biggest client in history, she should have received him with great respect. Why is there no one to receive him now?
Bai Yongxiang called the other party but received a busy signal; it turned out they were in an emergency meeting.
Therefore, Bai Yongxiang had no choice but to say, "President Lu, Manager He has gone to a meeting, and it seems that the entire management team of the company has gone to the meeting. We can only park the car outside and go into the lobby to wait for a while."
"Or, come again tomorrow."
Lu Ran parked the car in a public parking space outside the company, then got out and walked into the company with Bai Yongxiang.
"Gentlemen, is there anything you need?"
As soon as I entered the living room, someone came up to ask me something.
"I've already contacted your Manager He; I'm here today to check on how the wedding cars and wedding attire are going!"
Bai Yongxiang said calmly.
The receptionist smiled and nodded, pointing to the sofa in the living room, and said, "Please have a seat in the living room for a moment."
Lu Ran and Bai Yongxiang sat down on the sofa, and then nothing happened. The receptionist was nowhere to be found, and the front desk staff stood motionless at their posts, not even offering them a glass of water.
This made Bai Yongxiang's expression somewhat unpleasant.
"When I came here before, the managers and waiters were incredibly welcoming, serving hot tea, fruit, and desserts. Today, they've treated us so coldly. I don't believe they've forgotten me after only a few days."
Lu Ran laughed and said, "That's because the money has already been paid. After that, we're the ones begging them to do things, so our attitude is naturally different."
Bai Yongxiang sighed and frowned: "How can you do business like this? No wonder you can't grow big, and you've even changed the chairman."
"Mr. Lu, you don't know, but recently the chairman of this company sold his shares along with his position. So I think the people below are probably panicking and feel that the company is going to go bankrupt, which is why they are just letting things fall apart and not even receiving guests."
"I know that," Lu Ran said calmly.
"Ah! Mr. Lu knows?"
"Of course, because I'm the new chairman."
It's such a coincidence that the wedding planning company Lu Ran got from opening a treasure chest a few days ago is this very company.
If someone else had said that, Bai Yongxiang would definitely not have believed it.
But Bai Yongxiang believed Lu Ran's words.
He looked at Lu Ran in surprise: "Wait, Mr. Lu, when did you acquire this company?"
"Just a few days ago."
"So, Mr. Lu, the contract you're referring to isn't a car rental contract, but a company transfer contract?"
"That's right."
Bai Yongxiang swallowed hard; he really didn't know how to describe his feelings.
Although this wedding planning company has encountered some management and operational problems, it is undeniable that it is not small in scale and could not have been managed without considerable strength.
However, despite the fact that so many industries were developing at an excessive pace, President Lu acquired this company with ease!
Besides being awesome, what else can Bai Yongxiang say?
"Gentlemen, please have some tea."
Not long after the two finished their conversation, a pretty girl who looked to be in her early twenties came over carrying a fruit platter.
He handed two cups of hot tea to the two men and then placed the cut fruit on the table, saying, "This is fruit we just bought from our shop. Please enjoy yourselves. If you need anything, please feel free to call me."
When someone suddenly came out to greet them, Bai Yongxiang felt flattered and overwhelmed.
He looked up at the girl in front of him and asked, "I don't think I've seen you before. Are you new here?"
Although Bai Yongxiang couldn't possibly know all the employees here, he did have some impression of the female waitresses who were responsible for greeting customers in the lobby. The girl in front of him was indeed unfamiliar; he had never seen her before.
