Chapter 958: Chapter 958: Who Do You Really Want from Ruishi to Take Charge?
On the contrary, it might jeopardize his position or interests, which would be too unwise.
So, Rui Changhuai’s worry that Vice President Lu might have designs on him is purely his own overactive imagination.
Once Zhao Dingli gave him a heads up, Rui Changhuai continued, "I’ve looked into the deals Vice President Lu handled before. Every time, she accepted benefits indiscriminately from every company. Then, ultimately, she chose the one that’s actually the most suitable to partner with us."
"So, although she takes benefits, it doesn’t affect the company’s cooperative interests," Zhao Dingli said.
"Yes. She takes the benefits accordingly, but still selects based on the company’s strength," Rui Changhuai said. "The chosen company also gave her benefits, thinking they were selected because of them."
"The companies not selected either think they didn’t offer enough benefits, or believe Vice President Lu is greedy and untrustworthy. But after all, she’s Vice President of Changlin, so they dare not provoke her easily."
"Because they still hope for cooperation opportunities in the future; really annoying Vice President Lu would mean no chance of cooperation at all, which is even less worthwhile," Rui Changhuai said.
"So, even though Vice President Lu’s actions are unethical, no one dares to do anything about it, let alone expose her," Rui Changhuai said.
"As for some companies involved in those physical transactions, there was truly nothing bad uncovered in their investigations," Rui Changhuai said.
Vice President Lu is indeed pretty smart in this regard.
After all, to become Vice President at Changlin and still not have any slip-ups over the years certainly means she’s got her own cunning ways.
"Ha!" Zhao Dingli sneered, "So, if it really comes to it, could she then excuse it as her personal life, not affecting her work? When it comes to receiving gifts, would you believe she’d say it’s just private exchanges between friends?"
Rui Changhuai nodded immediately without thinking, "I believe it, I do!"
Whatever Zhao Dingli says, it’s impossible not to believe it.
Zhao Dingli has never been wrong.
"What now?" Rui Changhuai asked.
"Is there an issue with Rui Shi?" Zhao Dingli asked again.
"There’s no problem with Rui Shi," Rui Changhuai said, "And I’ve examined the competing companies in this round; even without the Zheng Xuelin and Vice President Lu issue, Rui Shi has strong competitiveness. If it were up to me, I’d choose Rui Shi."
Zhao Dingli nodded.
No wonder it’s the company Li Xiaoyun is working for.
Li Xiaoyun still has a good eye.
"The partnering company remains Rui Shi. It’s unsuitable to change the company now. However, this matter shouldn’t be handed over to Vice President Lu," Zhao Dingli said.
"You handle it personally," Zhao Dingli squinted, "Since Vice President Lu has these sneaky dealings, whether or not President Wu does, is truly hard to say."
"You should also investigate President Wu, and keep Vice President Lu’s matters under wraps to avoid alerting the enemy," Zhao Dingli said.
"Yes." Rui Changhuai nodded.
"Notify Rui Shi that a different person will handle the discussion; don’t let Zheng Xuelin do it," Zhao Dingli said.
"If they inquire, how should we explain from our end? After all, we can’t let Vice President Lu sense anything," Rui Changhuai said.
"For Vice President Lu, suspend her work for now and let her take a vacation. Regarding her past investigations, don’t inform her yet. If she asks why the vacation, just mention her issue with Zheng Xuelin, let her have some self-awareness, and don’t pursue further, just go on vacation quietly."
"The matter with Zheng Xuelin isn’t honorable, she likely wouldn’t bring it up with President Wu, but it’s not absolutely certain," Zhao Dingli said.
"However, I doubt President Wu would be as foolish as Vice President Lu. President Wu still has some brains. Even if he does some things, he wouldn’t overdo it like Vice President Lu," Zhao Dingli said.
As long as it’s not excessive, Zhao Dingli doesn’t plan to make it too difficult.
After all, reaching the General Manager position isn’t easy.
President Wu is indeed capable, otherwise, he wouldn’t be in this General Manager position.
To fire President Wu for a little thing and then find a suitable replacement isn’t quite feasible.
President Wu’s capabilities are indisputable.
The most important thing is that he knows his limits.
So, Zhao Gushen said, "In this way, even if Vice President Lu hints to President Wu a bit, and President Wu gets the hint, there’s nothing."
"Just treat it as a warning to President Wu. If President Wu has nothing to hide, he naturally doesn’t need to worry. If there’s truly something, it can serve as a wake-up call," Zhao Dingli said.
"Yes." Rui Changhuai nodded.
"Manage the rest yourself," Zhao Dingli said, "You know what needs doing."
"President, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go handle these issues now," Rui Changhuai said.
Being an assistant to Zhao Dingli requires doing many things.
It’s no wonder not just anyone can be Zhao Dingli’s assistant.
Even the Board Members and President Wu dare not cross him all rely on his capabilities!
Rui Changhuai sighed to himself, acknowledging that it’s also not easy to maintain his position.
"Wait a moment," Zhao Dingli said again.
Rui Changhuai watched Zhao Dingli, waiting for his orders.
"Tell Rui Shi, replace Zheng Xuelin, don’t negotiate with him. Once Rui Shi has a replacement, let me know and I’ll decide if I’ll continue the discussion," Zhao Dingli said.
Rui Changhuai silently stood in front of Zhao Dingli’s desk, hesitating to leave.
Zhao Dingli raised an eyebrow, "There’s nothing else, why aren’t you going out to handle it?"
Unexpectedly, even after Zhao Dingli said that, Rui Changhuai still stood there without moving.
Zhao Dingli: "..."
"Do you have something to say?" Zhao Dingli inquired.
Rui Changhuai took a step forward, lowered his voice, and spoke to Zhao Dingli, "President, why not just tell me directly who you want Rui Shi to have in charge?"
Zhao Dingli: "..."
"Earlier, you withheld the contract, aside from thinking Vice President Lu was acting peculiar, also because Zheng Xuelin wasn’t the person you envisioned managing the Rui Shi business, right?" Rui Changhuai lowered his voice even more.
Being Zhao Dingli’s assistant, naturally, he has another strength, which is being smart.
From Zhao Dingli’s actions and words, Rui Changhuai boldly grasped the truth.
Zhao Dingli: "..."
"President, why not just tell me directly, so I can specifically designate the person you have in mind?" Rui Changhuai said.
"To avoid dragging this out, Rui Shi over there might also be jittery with anxiety," Rui Changhuai said.
Show some mercy, and give their company a straightforward resolution!
Rui Changhuai just felt he was being too kindhearted.
How can he be so kind!
He doesn’t even know anyone at Rui Shi and yet here he is considering them.
