Chapter 1293: The Task of a Professional Manager
Wen Xinya stared at everyone with joy, pleased to see how eager they were in preparing for the listing of Lanxin Company as well as its expansion. She then s.h.i.+fted her gaze onto Ouyang Feng.
Ouyang Feng waved at her, for there was indeed nothing much that he wanted to say. He was currently in charge of the investment firm and the development was going very well. They had already acc.u.mulated a total of 10 billion yuan in funds. They were ranked sixth in the top ten investment firms in the world. Hence, no one dared to offend the gilded Lanxin Company.
At this moment, Yan Shaoqing said, “The development of Lanxin Company’s real estate investments have already formed a scale and the commercial development of the land along the Western and Southern regions is estimated to be completed by the end of this year and fully sold by spring of next year. The development of the other plots of lands and properties are also beginning to slowly develop.”
In the past three years, Lanxin’s real estate company had been developing together with the health supplements and cosmetic brands under Lanxin. They had also begun investing and planning the land use of the plot of land along the railway track that Wen Xinya had purchased five years ago. Besides, the investment plan for Lanxin Company had already been approved by the government. After five years, that plot of land had already become a luxurious business district that amazed everyone.
Besides, there were plenty of cities that were being developed in recent years, such as Jin City. Lanxin Company had already begun investing funds into the development. The most shocking part was that the construction team that they hired comprised of the construction workers who had worked for the Xia Family back then and were denied their wages.
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “That’s half a year earlier than I expected.”
She initially estimated the construction works to be completed in May. Now that the works were completed half a month in advance, they were all excited about the news.
Next, everyone began discussing about the future developments of Lanxin Company. After deciding on the policy, Wen Xinya said, “I have something important to announce during the meeting today.”
Everyone was rather curious about what Wen Xinya had to say. Although she was younger than them, she was very capable and competent. Even though she rarely took part in the management of Lanxin Company and its operations, every decision of hers helped to push the company to greater heights.
The most cla.s.sic move she made was clinching the sponsors.h.i.+p for the martyr appreciation event hosted by Zhishan Club, thus allowing Lanxin Company to expand and take to greater heights. During that period of time, Lanxin Company managed to achieve an impressive sales record that was a miracle in the health supplements industry.
Wen Xinya was the brain and soul of Lanxin Company.
The managerial staff of a company was disposable, unlike the brain and soul.
Wen Xinya glanced at Yan Shaoqing with a stern expression. “It has been six years since Lanxin Company was founded. Throughout the past six years, we grew from a baby to a household brand and an established company of the nation. All of you deserve credit for our success.”
Wen Xinya’s voice was rather influential and everyone felt influenced by her words.
Wen Xinya took a sweeping glance at everyone before fixing her gaze onto Yan Shaoqing. “However, one of us here has put in much more effort and hard work then the rest of us, including… me, the boss of Lanxin Company.”
Everyone turned to look at Yan Shaoqing. They all knew how much he had done for the company.
Yan Shaoqing was at a sudden loss for what to do. His throat turned a little dry and he wanted to speak but had no idea what to say.
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “In that case, I plan to appoint Yan Shaoqing as the professional manager of Lanxin Company.”
As a professional manager, he would be in charge of all the a.s.sets, management, value appraisal, legal processes and operations of the company. He would have the legal rights to make decisions on behalf of the company.
In other words, he would become Wen Xinya’s spokesperson and given the rights and power to manage and run the company on her behalf.
Yan Shaoqing was dumbfounded. He subconsciously asked, “Are you really going to become a sleeping boss?”
Since she had handed over everything to him, she would really just be a sleeping partner.
Yan Shaoqing’s words made everyone laugh out loud. They felt that there was no difference because Wen Xinya would still be the boss of Lanxin and she would still have the rights to make decisions and take part in the management of the company. She was just entrusting her power and authority to Yan Shaoqing so as to make it easier for him to run the company.
In the past, Wen Xinya rarely took part in the management apart from making the final decisions regarding the development of the company. Hence, they were not too surprised.
After being exposed by Yan Shaoqing, Wen Xinya began to feel a little embarra.s.sed, especially since the rest of them were all laughing at her. “Nonsense. The company belongs to me. How can I sit back and do nothing? I’m busy with school and the design compet.i.tion, so I don’t have time to manage the company. I’m entrusting my power and authority to you so that it’d be easier for you to manage the company.”
Wen Xinya had thought about it carefully. Now that Lanxin Company had already been developed and that she had already laid the foundation for Lanxin Company, she felt that she did not have to worry about it, especially since she had Yan Shaoqing and Zheng Yifan to help her.
She would also have more time to prepare for the jewelry design compet.i.tion and make her way towards success.
Yan Shaoqing was talented and capable. Hence, it would be a waste of talent if she were to make him continue being her a.s.sistant. His new position was very suitable for him.
Wen Xinya’s attempt to defend herself made everyone guffaw out loud.
Knowing that he had said the wrong words, Yan Shaoqing frantically said, “I accept it.”
He knew that Wen Xinya would never change her mind easily after she had decided on something.
Despite feeling a little embarra.s.sed, she was pleased with his answer. She extended her hand and said, “The company is yours to handle from now on.”
Yan Shaoqing stood up and hesitated for a moment before holding her slender and beautiful hand. “Rest a.s.sured! I won’t disappoint you.”
Zheng Yifan smiled and applauded.
The sounds of enthusiastic applause sounded in the office. Clearly, they all approved.
