Chapter 421: It's Not Easy to Be a Chairman
This wine tastes weird.
Chu Yang, the new chairman, didn't drink much and focused on serving wine.
His father-in-law was constantly fighting with the envoys.
Chu Yang was a little worried about his health.
Although his health has improved in recent years, is it necessary to work so hard?
I didn't do anything.
Director He seemed to be drunk, and kept shouting at Chu Yang to pour wine for his father-in-law: "Chu Yang, don't feel sorry for your father-in-law, fill it up a little."
Others also teased him, "Old Li, you are such a hidden guy. I thought you had calmed down and stayed at home to take care of the kids. I didn't expect you are still as good as ever. None of us can drink more than you."
Li Jiakun was also going all out today, and he was full of enthusiasm: "Director He, to be honest, I am very happy today. It's rare to drink with a good friend. To be honest, my doctor has already said that if I drink again, he will not take me in. My wife also said that if I drink again, she will not let me go home. But today, even Jesus can't stop me. I'll be happy first."
Damn, Chu Yang was a little dazed. It wasn't him who became the chairman, but his father-in-law who became the chairman again.
About ten o'clock.
The wine was finally finished.
Almost everyone on the field had rosy faces and was a little drunk. Chu Yang had wanted to leave a long time ago, but since no one else had said they were leaving, he didn't want to spoil the fun. After all, today was his big day.
"How about calling it a day today? It's getting late, and I really can't handle the alcohol anymore." Li Jiakun finally stood up trembling.
"Okay, it's time to go back." Director He also staggered.
Everyone stood up. Chu Yang saw that his father-in-law was a little dazed, walking unsteadily, and looked like he was about to fall, so he hurried over to support him.
But Li Jiakun immediately gave him a look and said, "Chu Yang, you are ignorant. Go and send Director He to the car. I'm fine."
Chu Yang frowned, but still did as he was told and escorted Director He to the car.
Before getting in the car, Director He held Chu Yang's hand and said enviously, "Chu Yang, you have a good father-in-law. Do a good job."
Chu Yang just nodded.
After seeing He off, Chu Yang returned to the parking lot and got into his father-in-law's car.
As soon as you get on the bus.
Chu Yang felt something was wrong .
The atmosphere feels depressing.
My father-in-law looked drunk just now, but now he is not drunk at all. He just sits upright in the car and talks on the phone clearly, as if he is telling someone good news.
In the past, leaders usually got their fame through drinking, and their alcohol tolerance was truly amazing.
Chu Yang had to admit it.
It seems that when my father-in-law said that he couldn't drink much just now, he was giving face to Director He and the others. He didn't want them to embarrass themselves too much.
If you really drink it again.
They were expected to all fall down.
To make others enjoy themselves and not to fall down, this kind of drinking capacity and ability to strategize are required.
It’s not easy.
Li Jiakun does have something.
"Oh, yes, of course. Thank you. Sure."
"I'll treat you to a meal some other day."
"Haha, call Lao He. We haven't had a gathering of comrades in arms for several years."
"Hahaha, if I were younger, I wouldn't have a chance to compete with them. No, I'm too old."
Li Jiakun was talking and laughing, but his words made people feel that he was still a little unwilling.
Although Chu Yang received many calls and text messages of blessings, he didn't want to answer any of them, nor did he want to read any of them.
Chu Yang knew which was more important: comforting the loser or blessing the winner.
The driver in front, Lao Yuan, looked back, Li Jiakun nodded, and the drivers understood each other and drove away.
Finally, Li Jiakun hung up the phone.
Moved my butt.
The car was quiet, with only the slight noise of the engine and air conditioning.
Chu Yang wanted to say something.
But I don’t want to say it.
Fortunately, the light in the car was dim and I couldn’t see his face clearly.
"Chu Yang, your performance today was average. I guess you were too happy and a little confused. But no matter what, you have successfully taken the position now. You still need to learn more about how to behave in society. You have to be more alert in the future."
Chu Yang felt a little aggrieved by Li Jiakun's words, but he couldn't refute anything because he didn't know what he was talking about. He really didn't have much room to show off tonight, and he couldn't drink much either.
So I could only answer: "I'm really not used to this kind of occasion, I'm a little nervous."
Li Jiakun ignored Chu Yang's words, looked at his phone and put it down again, and said faintly: "Chu Yang, I have to tell you something. After you take over, you need to arrange for several people. I will give you the list then. Also, you need to reuse the Taixiong Construction Team. I will arrange a meeting with their boss then."
When Chu Yang heard this, his brows instantly frowned, and he felt as if someone was strangling his throat.
No, that's what it means.
It's both personnel arrangements and re-employment of the construction team.
Are you treating me as a puppet?
Are you being the Empress Dowager Cixi?
Do you want to rule behind the scenes?
Are you going to control me?
Chu Yang was a little dissatisfied and said tactfully: "Dad, this is not good, I just took office and I'm doing this?"
Li Jiakun pouted: "I know you will not accept this, and this is not what I want you to do, but you can tell me, these are just some of the conditions for you to get promoted."
“Conditions? Who proposed these conditions?” Chu Yang was completely stifled.
“Chu Yang, you shouldn’t know too much about these things. It’s not good for you. But everything has a price. Arrange a few people and give some projects to Taixiong Construction Team. For you, they are all small things. You don’t need to react too much.” Li Jiakun said calmly.
Chu Yang didn't know why, but the breath was stuck in his throat and he couldn't feel relieved unless he spit it out.
"So how much is that authentic Wang Xizhi painting? Five million or fifty million? Dad , seriously, if that's the case, I'd rather not be the chairman of the board. It's nothing more than a figurehead, and I'm determined not to do anything illegal." Chu Yang was really drunk.
What is this?
This is definitely the call of interests. If you do this, will you still have a sense of self? Won't you end up in jail again?
"Chu Yang, what are you doing? Tian'er is so old, but you are still so childish." Li Jiakun seemed a little angry.
"To do illegal things to make money is something only fools do. Liu Yiji is a fool. There are many legal ways to make money in this world, and there are no risks. No matter how others check, there is no problem. This is a real master."
Li Jiakun's words were so convincing that they enlightened me.
No wonder he is so rich.
Fifty million at any time.
Seeing that Chu Yang didn't say anything, Li Jiakun continued to teach him: "Never think that you are so awesome. You can be unique and have your own personality, but you must never go beyond the scope. Benefits are the essence of this world, and there are no exceptions at any time. Of course, within this framework, you can also do what you like, and that's what you should do."
Chu Yang looked at his serious father-in-law and felt bitter.
In any case, he completed the leap from class member to chairman in just a few years and truly became a shining star, all thanks to Li Jiakun. Without him, Li Jiakun would not be the Chu Yang today.
But Chu Yang cannot live under his shadow, so how can he break free from this cage?
Back home.
Zhiying was still waiting for him at home, and she stood up immediately when she saw him.
"Why did you come back so late?" Zhiying helped Chu Yang take off his clothes.
"Zhiying, you're so nice." Chu Yang turned around and hugged her plump body.
"What's wrong? Are you not happy being the chairman?" Zhiying looked up at Chu Yang.
"It's not easy to be the chairman of the board. Zhiying, come and hug me and kiss me." Chu Yang picked her up. He didn't want to tell her those unpleasant things. After all, he was her father.
"Oh, do you want it again? Go take a shower." They are an old couple, and Zhiying knows Chu Yang too well.
“Hehe, my wife is so nice, let’s take a shower together.” Chu Yang said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll give you some water."
"Just wear the underwear I bought for you over there."
"You guys have so many tricks up your sleeve."
Zhiying blushed, but today was her husband's auspicious day as the chairman of the board, so she should applaud.
