Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 823: Qin Sichen takes a break from his busy schedule

Lu Shaohua didn't expect that he and his father-in-law would end up talking about company matters, and later he even invited his father-in-law to come out of retirement. It seemed that his father-in-law had been idle for too long, so after thinking about it, he agreed. It can be said that Lu Shaohua gained a lot from this visit to the Qin family.

In Lu Shaohua's previous life, he had read too many online novels. In these novels, there were many protagonists who hired gossipy women into their companies, which eventually led to the collapse of the companies and put them in danger.

But in Lu Shaohua's opinion, only an incompetent protagonist would turn things into that. If he, Lu Shaohua, was in power, such a thing would never happen. He would not give shares, but ability was absolutely everything.

Are you a relative? Well, if you have the ability, I can recruit you into the company and give you a high position, but you cannot rely on this relationship to bully others in the company. Once Lu Shaohua finds out, no matter who the relative is, Lu Shaohua will just let him/her pack up and leave.

Don't doubt Lu Shaohua's cold-bloodedness. Sometimes, when Lu Shaohua turns against you, he can turn his back on you and not recognize even your relatives. Just like the time when a deputy general manager of Phoenix Sales recruited his relatives into Phoenix Group, and in the end even the deputy general manager had to pack up and leave.

Although the deputy general manager is not a relative of Lu Shaohua, don't forget that it takes more than one person to become the deputy general manager of Phoenix Sales. Not only must one have strong abilities, but one must also be deeply trusted by Lu Shaohua. Otherwise, it would be impossible to climb to such a high position.

In other words, the deputy general manager was deeply trusted by Lu Shaohua and had strong abilities. However, such a person was kicked out of Phoenix Sales by Lu Shaohua because of a trivial matter. I wonder what Lu Shaohua would do.

Lu Shaohua is very clear about his own character, and he is determined to deal with anything. He also believes in his own vision. Lu Shaohua feels that his father-in-law is definitely not the kind of person who would enter the company and abuse his power because of his relationship, and he will not do anything that is detrimental to the Phoenix Group because of this relationship.

Therefore, Lu Shaohua was relieved to invite his father-in-law to come out of retirement and take charge of the new department that was about to be established. Of course, Lu Shaohua invited his father-in-law to come out of retirement not only because he didn't want to see the old man idle, but also because this department was too important, and Lu Shaohua had to find someone he could fully trust to take charge.

Sometimes a relative can do whatever he wants in the company because of the relationship. Obviously, Qin Lei is not that kind of person. So he must be the second kind of person. The second kind of person treats the company as his own because of the relationship with his relatives and will work twice as hard when doing things.

Isn’t this the second type of person Lu Shaohua needs?

Someone who can be trusted and will work twice as hard. Where can Lu Shaohua find such a person?

What's more important is that it's managed by our own family and the secrets won't be leaked. After all, the department to be established will be in charge of the accounts of all overseas branches of Phoenix Group. That's a secret more important than a business secret and can't be leaked at all.

This is the core reason why Lu Shaohua invited his father-in-law to come out of retirement.

Now that his father-in-law had agreed, Lu Shaohua could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The next step was to ask his father-in-law what kind of people he needed under him and other preparations for setting up this department. After his father-in-law had spoken, Lu Shaohua agreed and said that he would get ready as soon as possible. The matter was then considered to have come to an end.

After the official business was finalized, the next things became much simpler, chatting about family matters and gossiping a little.

Even though Qin Lei is over 50 years old, he is actually very gossipy, especially about things in American politics. He looks at things from an outsider's perspective, so naturally he knows about some gossip and bizarre things.

Lu Shaohua did not spoil the old father-in-law's mood. He chatted with him from time to time, which pleased the old father-in-law and the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

At the end, Qin Lei also proposed to take a look at Lu Yuting's situation and asked Lu Shaohua if he agreed.

What else did Lu Shaohua have to say? It was true that Lu Yuting was his daughter, but she was also Qin Sichen's daughter. And as Qin Sichen's father, Qin Lei, Lu Shaohua's father-in-law, there seemed to be no reason for Lu Shaohua to stop it.

Of course, there are other factors involved.

Because Qin Lei's proposal to meet Lu Yuting requires him to go to Lu Shaohua's hometown. Since he is going to Lu Shaohua's hometown, he will definitely meet Lu Jiayao, the head of the Lu family. The meeting between the two parties itself means a marriage.

Come to think of it, this is the truth.

However, Lu Shaohua didn't mind, because Qin Sichen had already been recognized by Lu Jiayao, and Lu Yuting could have a status in the Lu family. No matter what, Qin Sichen was already considered the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

Since this is the case, what does Lu Shaohua have to care about? The two sides can just meet, there will be no impact.

Lu Shaohua agreed and persuaded his father-in-law to go back with him and move to Hong Kong so that it would be convenient for him to work in the group.

Qin Lei came to the United States in the 1980s and has not returned to Hong Kong for more than ten years. Lu Shaohua originally wanted to place the headquarters of the newly established department in the United States, but then he thought it would be better to place it at the headquarters of Phoenix Group.

However, at the beginning, Lu Shaohua did not mention this matter, because Qin Lei had lived in the United States for more than ten years, and it seemed a little difficult to convince him to move back rashly. Now, with Lu Yuting's opportunity, Lu Shaohua also mentioned it.

Qin Lei has lived in the United States for more than ten years and has become accustomed to this pace of life. However, it does not mean that Qin Lei has never thought about returning to Hong Kong. It’s just that there has never been such an opportunity before. Now that he has found the opportunity, Qin Lei agreed without even considering it.

It has to be said that this is another good news for Lu Shaohua. Lu Shaohua's face was full of smiles. He said that he would have someone arrange everything. Then he took the initiative to change the subject and started talking about some gossip.

Qin Lei didn't seem to want to say more about returning to Hong Kong. When Lu Shaohua took the initiative to change the subject, he went along with it and talked about other things with Lu Shaohua.

In this way, the old and the young chatted for a whole afternoon until Lu Shaohua's brother-in-law and aunt came back, and then they interrupted the conversation. But not long after, the brother-in-law joined in, and the three men formed a drama, chatting without saying a word.

Who says only women can set up the stage and perform? Men can do other things, too, especially when talking about world affairs, men are sometimes more powerful than women.

……

……

Lu Shaohua stayed in New York for two days. Well, actually it wasn’t really two days, because Lu Shaohua left on the second night and flew back to Hong Kong with his father-in-law, mother-in-law and Qin Sichen.

Under normal circumstances, Qin Sichen might not agree to leave so soon, but now it is different. Her parents have come with her, and Qin Sichen has nothing to miss in the United States. Instead, she is very eager to return to Hong Kong.

Qin Sichen is the CEO of Phoenix Group, and she has a lot of responsibilities. Hong Kong naturally cannot do without her. If she didn't take a break from her busy schedule, Qin Sichen would never have gone to the United States.

Now that his parents have come with him, Qin Sichen has focused all his attention on Phoenix Group, so he will naturally not stay in the United States for too long. This is also an important reason why Qin Sichen agreed to return to Hong Kong.

However, after returning to Hong Kong, Qin Sichen went back to work. Within two days, she got another chance to take a break from her busy schedule, because Qin Lei wanted to see his granddaughter and had to fly back to Lu Shaohua's hometown. Qin Sichen naturally took the brunt and acted as the leader.

Originally, Lu Shaohua also wanted to go back to his hometown, but considering that there were so many things to do in Hong Kong and Lu Shaohua was too busy, he did not go there. While staying in Hong Kong to carry out his plan, he also shared Qin Sichen's work.

Yes, when Qin Sichen took a special plane and took her parents back to her hometown, Lu Shaohua was sitting in Qin Sichen's office, playing the role of the executive president of Phoenix Group and handling the affairs of Phoenix Group.

At this point, Lu Shaohua realized that he had greatly ignored Qin Sichen's pressure, because since his first day at work, the pile of documents on his desk had never decreased.

After processing one document, the branch below sent him some urgent documents. After he looked through them in detail and found no problems, Lu Shaohua signed his name and asked his secretary to send them back or the person who sent them to take them back.

Okay, it’s okay to use half a day to process the urgent documents, but what about the documents that have been piled up during the days when Qin Sichen was away?

Needless to say, Lu Shaohua needs to deal with them. Even if there are backlogs of documents, it does not mean that they can be processed slowly, because no document that can be sent to the CEO's office is unimportant, and the backlog time cannot be too long.

As early as when Qin Sichen boarded the special plane, Qin Sichen told Lu Shaohua that she planned to stay for a long time this time. If Lu Shaohua had not bargained with her, Qin Sichen might have stayed for half a month.

After the bargaining, Qin Sichen still insisted on staying in his hometown for ten days, which means that Lu Shaohua would have to spend at least ten days sitting in the office of the executive president of Phoenix Group.

In addition, Qin Sichen also gave Lu Shaohua a hard target, that is, when she returns, there must not be any backlog of documents in her office.

what does this mean?

This will mean that Lu Shaohua must deal with the backlog of documents that have accumulated over the past period of time, as well as the documents that are submitted every day.

At first, Lu Shaohua thought it was a piece of cake, but on the first day at work, Lu Shaohua began to feel headache and frustration.

At the same time, Lu Shaohua was finally under the pressure of Qin Sichen, the executive president of Phoenix Group.

"Alas... This is the only chance in thousands of years. Try your best." Lu Shao sighed, looked at the mountain of documents in front of him, and muttered to himself.
