Chapter 1265: The Meeting in Lanxin Company
In the afternoon of the very same day, Wen Xinya received the agreement from Zhishan Club, which informed her that the products of Lanxin Company were qualified to undergo checks that would be carried out by Zhishan Club and the military authorities.
Extremely elated, Wen Xinya headed straight to Lanxin Company with the intention of breaking the good news to everyone.
Lately, they had all been busy preparing the launching of the health supplements and the listing of the brand. Hence, they were all as busy as bees. Wen Xinya was no exception. She had to stay in the office for at least three hours a day to handle the doc.u.ments that could only be processed with her around.
Wen Xinya boarded the elevator to the seventh floor. The office initially only took up three floors but had since taken up another four floors because of the rapid expansion which required more s.p.a.ce. The Lanxin office tower was still in the midst of construction and it would take at least three more years before they could move there. Fortunately, Wen Xinya had made plans beforehand and rented the entire office building which consisted of seven floors.
As soon as Wen Xinya exited the elevator, Yan Shaowing walked towards her and welcomed her. “Didn’t you say that you won’t be able to make it today because of something important?”
Wen Xinya threw the doc.u.ment at him and said, “There’s something important that I have to discuss with you guys about. Inform everyone that there will be an impromptu meeting.”
Wen Xinya began walking towards the conference room.
Yan Shaoqing was dumbfounded after reading the content of the doc.u.ment. Staring at the bright red stamp of Zhishan Club, he almost could not believe his eyes.
The Zhishan Club was a nationally-recognized charity organization that contributed to all the charity a.s.sociations in the nation and rendered help in administrative matters. It was the most powerful and authoritative charity organization in the city.
It was a top organization in the nation and yet, it noticed Lanxin Company which had only been established for less than four years. It was unexpected because the company had yet to be developed fully.
Yan Shaoqing closed the doc.u.ment and chased after Wen Xinya as she entered the conference room. Feeling extremely excited, he asked, “Is this real?”
Yan Shaoqing found it rather unbelievable becuase of how astonis.h.i.+ng it was. Hence, he was in disbelief and could not help but verify it with Wen Xinya.
“Of course it’s real. Why would I joke about something like this?” said Wen Xinya, who had never seen Yan Shaoqing so agitated before. When they first met, he still behaved in a composed manner despite being in a pathetic state.
Yan Shaoqing said excitedly, “I… I’ll get everyone to turn up for the meeting immediately.”
Yan Shaoqing scurried out of the conference room. Wen Xinya could already imagine the shock that would be on everyone’s faces after they saw the doc.u.ment later. She burst into laughter.
Yan Shaoqing had always been the kind of walk the talk and he was quiet but capable. He was the ultimate ideal employee that all employers would dream of having.
Hence, he soon made all the necessary arrangements for the meeting.
Once everyone was present, Wen Xinya said smilingly, “I believe all of you know the reason for my decision to hold the impromptu meeting. I just want to inform all of you that Zhishan Club will be hosting a martyr appreciation event at the end of this year and we must clinch the sponsors.h.i.+p opportunity.”
Everyone noticed that Wen Xinya said “inform” not “request” or “hope”. It meant that she was absolutely confident in herself, the company, as well as their products.
Everyone got a great shock when they heard about the news and had yet to recover from it.
The Zhishan Club was the central power of the city and lots of wealthy and influential n.o.bilities yearned for a chance to climb the social ladder using the clout of the Zhishan Club. Lots of tyc.o.o.ns wanted to use the Zhishan Club’s influence to their aid and expand their social network and connections so as to generate more wealth. The elites of society desperately wanted to use the influence of the Zhishan Club to bring them to the peak of success.
They actually noticed Lanxin Company. Were they joking!?!
Wen Xinya noticed the expression on everyone’s faces, which was similar to that on Yan Shaoqing’s face when he first heard about the matter. “Does anyone have any objections?”
Zheng Yifan was the first to recover from the shock. He stood up and said, “Miss Wen, we may be fortunate to have received this opportunity from Zhishan Club, but I know that this is a military event and that Zhishan Club is the nation’s spokesperson.”
Zheng Yifan was greatly taken aback when he first heard about the news and he was still rather astonished. He almost found it unbelievable and hence, decided to air his opinions.
Wen Xinya nodded, gesturing for him to continue.
Zheng Yifan immediately continued, “There are plenty of capable and competent health supplements companies in the nation, and they offer a plethora of effective products too. I reckon we’ll be facing stiff compet.i.tion this time. I don’t care how you got this doc.u.ment, but we’re still not strong enough to compete with those resourceful and established companies.”
Zheng Yifan felt that it was impossible for Lanxin Company to be interested in Lanxin because of their lack of experience, even though he had faith in the company.
Zheng Yifan made eye contact with Wen Xinya and said profoundly, “This may be a wonderful opportunity for us, but we have to face reality. Only by staying grounded and working hard can we build our company and help it grow. Instead of spending time on impossible things, I think we should focus on preparing for Lanxin to get listed.”
Ever since he joined Lanxin Company, he had approved of and recognized Wen Xinya’s capabilities. He admired her for her ability to get ahold of the agreement and the chance for a sponsors.h.i.+p, for that meant that her capabilities would aid the company in growing and developing well. However, she was too young and he was worried that she might get too caught up with the sponsors.h.i.+p, so much that she allowed it to hamper the company’s development.
Zheng Yifan sounded shrewd and harsh yet reasonable. He made sense, too. Hence, no one could object.
However, his words had sparked some unhappiness amongst the others.
