When Yuan Yang lowered his head to look at the state of Gu Qing Pei's clothes, he got slightly taken aback.
Meanwhile, Gu Qing Pei only chuckled, "If you pull me again, I'm going to shout sexual harassment ah." After he finished speaking, he slowly tugged his clothes from Yuan Yang's clutch. Since there were no buttons left to be fastened, he might as well let the front part of his shirt to remain open. He spoke with grave and earnest words, "You are not willing to become an assistant nor a driver. Then what else do you think you can do? If I allow you to become the boss, are you able to manage the employees? Are you able to manage the company?"
"I fucking don't want to become anything. Just treat me like I come here only for duty. I can find any place and sit on my own. You can treat me as if I don't exist."
Gu Qing Pei shook his head in exasperation, "Young master Yuan, I have personally promised Chairman Yuan that I am going to lead you to the right path. Plus I am a very responsible man, so I won't allow you to do nothing inside the company. I will use everything in my disposal to teach and guide you. But if you are not willing to learn, then you can bring it up to Chairman Yuan. I have no right to make any decision." Having said that, Gu Qing Pei turned around and entered the bathroom without really caring about Yuan Yang's livid face that had turned ashen.
He took a five-minute quick shower and changed to a new set of clothes. By the time he came out, he found out that Yuan Yang was already sitting at the sofa with both of his hands crossed in front of his chest, his eyes closed as he rested. Although he was in such a sluggish moment, but his body didn't bend, his waist and back were tightly glued to the sofa, whereas both of his legs were freely overlapping. It was indeed a rather pleasant-looking painting of a beautiful man.
Gu Qing Pei squinted his eyes. He admired the sight for two more seconds before he looked at his watch and said, "Come on, let's go to the meeting."
Yuan Yang opened one of his eyes. Having being provoked, he shot a glare at him before slowly standing up and walked outside in a reluctant manner.
*****
When both of them reached the conference room, twenty employees of each department were already seated and waiting for them. Once Gu Qing Pei entered the room, he smiled and greeted them, "Hello everyone." Then, an explosive, warm applause erupted inside the room, welcoming him.
Yuan Yang frowned. He absolutely hated this kind of formal occasion. Previously, when his dad wanted to take him out, he would do anything to escape. However, he never expected that at the end, he was still unable to avoid it.
Gu Qing Pei sat on the director's seat. Meanwhile, everyone had no idea the purpose of Yuan Yang coming here. But when they look at him bearing a dignified and imposing attitude, combined with the fact that it was the director himself who brought him in, they didn't dare to neglect him. A thirty-year-old female manager had planned to let go of her deputy seat for him, however Gu Qing Pei raised his hand up, "No need. Xiao Yuan, go and find an empty place to sit."
Yuan Yang didn't mind sitting anywhere as long he was far away from Gu Qing Pei, the further the better. So he picked an especially distant place and sat down. But due to Yuan Yang's tall height, once Gu Qing Pei sat down and momentarily glimpsed at everyone, Yuan Yang was still the most eye-catching person amongst the seated staffs.
Gu Qing Pei swept his gaze around the room once before he revealed an easygoing smile, "Hello everyone, I will start by doing a self-introduction. My surname is Gu, Gu Qing Pei. The Qing is from 'fresh yield' and the Pei is combination of "Fei-Yi". From today onwards, I will be the same as everyone, one of the staff of Zhuo Company Group. I invite everyone to work hard together so we can do our best to reinstate Zhuo Company Group back to the stock market. I will also dedicate my greatest contribution."
T/N: 顾青裴(GU QING PEI): His Qing, which taken from the (fresh-yield青草), and Pei is from the combination of 非 (fei) +衣 (yi) = 裴(Pei).... Welcome the wonder of chinese word.... T_T...
Everyone started to applaud loudly once more, whereas the eyes of the female employees had begun to shine with awe as they gazed at Gu Qing Pei.
Gu Qing Pei cleared his throat and began his entrance speech, "Today is my first day entering Zhuo Company and everyone's enthusiasm has touched my heart. I am very delighted. Although I am still unable to call out the majority of the people's name here, but I believe, under everyone's joint effort and hard work, Zhuo Company will definitely become a united and strong group of business with solid, high-spirited team. This company will eventually develop into an excellent representative of China's outstanding enterprise. In order to fulfill this mission, Chairman Yuan has brought me into this company in order to drastically rectify not only the cracks and loopholes of the management in this company, but also the lack of the qualified employees, the messy debts. Right now, there is a long series of obstacles stopping in front of us, blocking us from becoming a listed company. However in my opinion, all these obstacles are just like paper tigers which all of you don't dare to break through because you are afraid of their fake, ferocious appearance. But in fact, as long you all muster up the courage to clear all these obstacles, you will find out that its fangs and its claws are so vulnerable that it will not even be able to withstand a single blow when it appears in front a business group brimming with wisdom and intelligence. Around two to three years ago, Chairman Yuan had already send me an invitation and I have used all these time to conduct a deep research and investigation to understand Chairman Yuan and the prospect of Chairman Yuan's company. I believe that this company is filled with bright prospect and unlimited potential. This company will have an explosive development in the future. Hence, I have given up my position that I had strived hard for ten years, abandoned my work at a stable and steady state-owned enterprise, and come here instead to join everyone and start a new business. One thing that I want to tell everyone is, there is nothing, my honorable colleagues, there is nothing that can block Zhuo Company from moving forward. As long we all are in one mind, we will surely stand united.
T/N: 纸老虎(zhǐ lǎo hǔ) Paper Tigers: something that look strong but is actually weak.
There was again, a round of loud applause reverberating inside the conference room. Meanwhile, Gu Qing Pei still wore his good-looking smile as he quietly observed the reaction from each of the personnel.
"Of course, it would be impossible to achieve this kind of goal with the current state of our company. Before I came here, Chairman Yuan had introduced me to several senior employees of this company, thus I have ample understanding regarding the company's current situation. In order to meet the listing terms and conditions, it is not enough if we merely rely on our excellent assets, capital and core businesses since those are only able to meet the financial requirements. In addition, we still have to fulfil the requirement of a proper management system. At the present moment, our company has a chaotic management system. From today onwards, from this moment onwards, as I come to this place, I want to establish the culture and system of Zhuo Company Group with all of you. I, together with all of the people seated here, will become pioneers of the law and government as well as the standardization structure for Zhuo Company Group. This is an extremely crucial point for us to be able to go back as a listed company. If any of you have has ever practiced speculation on stocks, then you should clearly know the standard of management system that a listed company must have. Just the documents of company rules and regulations demanded by the SFC (Securities and Future Commision) alone has almost reached the height of an ordinary person. I believe that everyone is familiar with the previous company I used to work for. It has already carved up three to a quarter of the oil and natural gas market in China. At that time, when we were solely doing a simple supervising of the management rules and regulations of employees' work attendance, the documents were already piled up to around thirty to forty pages. If it further involves the manufacturing business or the system of financial affair authorization, then it would bundle up to several hundreds pages. This is how the standard operation of a normal listed company should be. Our Zhuo Company Group should reach the top of the world one day. When that time comes, I truly believe that all of you sitting right here will have another level of success in your individual future lives."
Gu Qing Pei's experience and achievement for the past many years had allowed him to sharpen his skills of feeding people false hope to the point of perfection, thus when he made a speech, he was able to convey an inspiring message. Basically after he finished his speech, most of his underlings would had a completely different morale. Even more so, all these important points that he had mentioned truly came from his heart. If it was not because he had seen the glorious prospect of this company, he definitely would not come here. Plus, after he knew how strong the capital and the upcoming project that supported this company, he even had more confidence to come here.
He continued, "What is the most urgent matter that all of you can think right now? Is it finance? Is it planning projects? Or is it to resume our core business? Let me tell you, none is correct. In order to support the company back to listing, Chairman Yuan had prepared to invest over ten million of funding. This just not only to restore the core business, which is the trading sector, but it is also intended to expand the business into the real estate sector, energy sector, oil-refining sector and mining sector. These fields can be considered as my specialty and line of work, whereby I had learned these courses during my university life. Hence, Chairman Yuan and I can quickly hit it off. The reason I can have such confidence on the prospect of Zhuo Company is because I am completely familiar with the ins and outs of these industries. I know where the cash should be invested and where to collect the cash from. Now, in order to let Zhuo Company meet the listing conditions, Chairman Yuan has prepared to merge both of his two holding companies. These two companies have excellent conditions regarding their business, including a stable cash flow of income which can instantly inject the finance for Zhuo Company until four billion worth of asset. This can solve most of Zhuo's Company's debt. Meanwhile, clearing away the residual debts will only take one year. And after that, Zhuo Company can immediately abandon the financial obligations to go into the battle with a light pack and achieve a proper standing on the capital market. It probably won't take more than three years for all these things to happen. However, my comrades, do you think you and the company are ready for it? Are you guys ready for the company to be listed on the stock market, are you ready to accept the challenge from the capital markets? Are you able to accept the rigorous observation from every single side of the supervisory bureau and stockholders? The culture and institutional system of our company are basically equal to zero. With our current condition, are we qualified as a listed company? Obviously no. So, the most pressing matter we have in our hands right now is not about the financial condition, not about planning the projects, and also not about recruiting more people. The most important thing is to establish a new culture, build a new system and begin a new path for Zhuo Company Group to transform its system from 'rule of men' to 'rule of law'. Currently, Zhuo Company's situation has the most irregular management stage, which is ruled by men instead of ruled by law. The management department is filled with chaos. Because the authorization of division labor is not strict, this allowed many people to exploit the loopholes in the management to seek personal gains through it. This is absolutely not allowed to happen. What we have to do right now is reconstruct the personnel through the HR department, for them to be more inspiring, then replace the rule of men with the rule of law and standardize our management. All of these are done to ensure that the company will have a healthy and highly efficient operation."
T/N: "to go into the battle with a light pack": move forward without hesitation
Once Gu Qing Pei had spoken up to this point, the conference room was blanketed with deafening silence as no one had the courage to utter a word. That was because Gu Qing Pei's expression had morphed into a serious expression, causing him to appear very dignified and imposing. His speech was exceptionally sonorous and powerful, to the extent that not a single person dared to cut his words.
Gu Qing Pei used his finger to point on the table, "So, does everyone know what we should be doing now?" He swept his eyes over the entire staffs, but only a few dared to look straight back at him while most of them casted their sights towards other side.
Gu Qing Pei smiled in satisfaction, "The first step we should do is establish the company rules and regulations. In the future, we still need to have our own corporate culture, we also need an integrated organizational structure. So right now, the first task that I assign to all of you is, within three days, you must develop a complete management system to supervise the employees' work attendance. I do not want to see the majority of staffs clocking in around past eight thirty to nine o'clock when I randomly pick out a card from the punching card system. I believe the working hour of our company starts at eight thirty. Therefore, whoever comes late must be fined and any behavior violating the company's regulations must be punished as well. We can no longer maneuver with such lazy and careless attitude to approach work, to handle the company and your own individual future. In the future, a weekly regular meeting will be punctually held every Monday morning and the person in charge of each department will report their work progress. I request everyone from this moment, please abandon your laidback attitude and get through yourself from in and out. Face the upcoming challenge with your brand-new self!"
After the meeting, everyone quickly rushed to get out of the room. Until the end, only two people remained, Gu Qing Pei and Yuan Yang.
Gu Qing Pei drank a sip of tea and looked at Yuan Yang, "Although what you see right now is only twenty management staffs sitting inside the meeting room who don't carry the slightest mighty aura to run the company, but the future development of this company is definitely unlimited. Don't you feel that cultivating this kind of company and watching it grow healthily will give a sense of accomplishment? Since you are here, you might as well stay and make the best out of it. If you change your way of thinking to a composed mindset and stay here peacefully, you won't feel uncomfortable. Chairman Yuan also won't be as anxious. This will benefit everyone, don't you agree?"
T/N: 既来之则安之(Jì lái zhī zé ānzhī) Since you are already here, you'd better relax. (This is what I got from site but I think Gu Qing Pei doesn't want Yuan Yang to relax in the company so I change it to "make the best out of it".)
Unexpectedly, Yuan Yang, who rarely didn't show a disdainful expression, spoke calmly, "I totally have no interest towards all these stuffs. I was forced to leave the army because of my late grandmother's wish. But even if I have left the army, I still have other things that I can do. Doing business like my dad is the most thing I don't want to do. So, you don't need to persuade me anymore. As long you are not meddlesome, we can live in peace with each other."
Gu Qing Pei shook his head in disappointment, "Kid, you are indeed very stubborn."
Yuan Yang looked at his watch, "Your speech is very touching, but unfortunately these people are not that easy to handle. You can continue minding your business, I'm going back first."
"Where do you want to go?" Gu Qing Pei stood up in suit.
"Going back home to sleep." Yuan Yang didn't even turn his head around and just continued to walk to the exit door.
Gu Qing Pei immediately walked upfront, "No, you cannot leave without any reason. If I don't comply with any of the company rules, then everyone is allowed not to follow it. However, as long as I obey the rules, then everyone must also follow it. You don't have any proper reason to leave your post, so you are not allowed to go."
Yuan Yang turned his head around. He looked at Gu Qing Pei with narrowed eyes, "What had I just said? Don't be such a busybody."
Gu Qing Pei raised his chin slightly, "Yuan Yang, if you don't understand how to handle the company, I can teach you. To be able to handle the core of the company, you need to know how to handle the people first. You are also one of the member of this company. Therefore, you must actively follow the rules under the company's framework, or else you can only go away."
"Then, you can just let me go."
"I have no right to let you go. If you want to leave, you should ask Chairman Yuan. If you cannot leave, then you should just stay here obediently."
Yuan Yang clenched his fists, "You bloody Gu. Are you trying to tell me that you want to control me?"
"Yes, I am the director and you are the assistant. Of course, I will be the one who control you. I am going to repeat it once more. As long you are an employee of this company, then you are bound to the system, bound by my supervision, unless you can leave the company. But you don't even have the capability to leave, so it's obviously not one of the things within my authority."
Yuan Yang kicked the high back executive chair upside down. Although the floor was covered with carpet, but the resulting sound effect was still awfully loud. He took several huge strides towards Gu Qing Pei and grabbed onto his collar, gnashing his teeth as he snarled, "You bloody Gu, don't you fucking keep on using my dad to control me. If you are still being so insatiable, I will let you know what is called regret."
"You want to hit me? Then, please do it with a light hand, or else it's going to be hard to explain to Chairman Yuan."
Yuan Yang was driven into fury until his veins popped out. Even if his fists were gurgling with anger, he was still unable to hit this infuriating man in front of him.
If this happened in the past, he would have lost count of the times he had thrashed and beaten Gu Qing Pei to death. But now, he can only endure everything because once he really does something aggressive, he knows that he will be dropping a huge advantage right onto his dad's hand. And when that time comes, his dad will certainly hold it against him and he will have no chance to counterattack nor free himself as long as he lives.
It didn't matter whether it was Yuan Yang or Gu Qing Pei. Both of them wished that the other one would be the first to take the initiative and withdraw from this battle so they wouldn't need to bear the responsibility of the blame from Yuan Li Jiang. But unfortunately, even if they want to compare whose will was stronger, neither of them would be willing to lose to the other party.
Once Yuan Yang used his force, Gu Qing Pei was immediately pushed back that his steps staggered. He pointed at Gu Qing Pei's nose and spoke coldly, "Bloody Gu, since you dare to challenge me, you better be well prepared. I want to see how big your courage is."
Gu Qing Pei merely sent him a vague smile, "I'll be looking forward to it at any time."
