Chapter 120 Coincidence
on Monday.
Lu Xingchen arrived at the company very early.
Zhuang Su, the chief engineer of the future architect team, is just as his name suggests, a boss who is strict with himself and his subordinates.
A man in his forties, who arrives at work early every day and is meticulous in his work and appearance, passed by Lu Xingchen's workstation today and inadvertently glanced at the folder on her desk. His brows furrowed slightly, and he looked around and found Lu Xingchen in the document room.
He thought about it, walked to the door of the information room, and knocked on the glass door.
Seeing that it was him, Lu Xingchen came over and greeted him politely: "Morning, Mr. Zhuang."
"Good morning." Zhuang Su saw that she was holding a recent financial weekly in her hand and asked, "I saw that you have a plan for the nursing home on your desk. Why do you want to look at the case that was rejected at the meeting last week?"
As a newcomer, one should not comment on the plans of predecessors before taking over a project or coming up with a plan independently. Lu Xingchen first glanced at Zhuang Su's micro-expression.
Zhuang Su didn't need her to observe and said directly: "I asked you to say it."
Lu Xingchen said, "The final shortlisted projects include 'Unmanned Assisted Driving', 'Smart Business District' and 'Supporting Nursing Homes'. Finally, 'Supporting Nursing Homes' is pending, so I want to see the latest national policies and support targets."
"You think supporting nursing homes shouldn't be pending?"
This question was difficult for Lu Xingchen to answer, so she said politely, "I personally prefer the less popular path, and I want to study it a little bit."
Zhuang Su looked at her for a moment and said, "Do you know that this is the final decision made by the senior management of the AI team after several meetings and repeated discussions? This decision will be reported at the senior decision-making meeting at ten o'clock tomorrow."
Lu Xingchen apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhuang, I will pay more attention next time."
Zhuang Su looked at her again, said nothing more, and walked towards his own independent office.
Lu Xingchen looked at the financial weekly in his hand, carefully memorized the publication date, decided to go to the library after get off work to check it again, and then put the magazine in his hand back on the shelf.
Nine o'clock the next morning.
On the top floor of Zhencheng Building, Jiang Haicheng sat on the sofa in Li Zhen's office, crossed his legs, drank coffee and said, "Yuecheng is still more comfortable. It's almost March in Beijing and it's still snowing. I'm so cold that I'm willing to work overtime and hurry back to Yuecheng!"
Li Zhen glanced at him and said, "People who go to Switzerland to ski are dissatisfied with the snow in the capital."
"Isn't that just for the sake of romance?" Jiang Haicheng curled his lips, then asked Li Zhen, "Will you go to the finalization meeting later? I heard that the marketing department and the AI department selected "Autonomous Driving" and "Smart Business District" as the opening projects for the new year."
Hearing this, Li Zhen raised his eyes from the documents on the table to look at Jiang Haicheng, "I remember there was a bidding project for "Supporting Nursing Homes"?"
Jiang Haicheng: "The government does have such a tender to build a nursing home with an intelligent rehabilitation center inside, but the funding amount for large-scale support tenders is not large, the construction period is long, and the repayment period is even longer. In addition, the intelligent zone only has a rehabilitation center, which is still not up to the standards of our future projects."
"Is this the decision of Ouyang Hui and Zhou Shuheng?"
Ouyang Hui is the vice president of the market channel and Jiang Haicheng's direct subordinate.
Zhou Shuheng is the director of the AI department.
Jiang Haicheng saw Li Zhen's expression and guessed that he didn't agree with this decision. "This should be the result of a discussion between the middle and senior management of the two departments. Besides, each of the three plans has its own strengths. If I were here, I would probably be biased towards these two."
Li Zhen thought about it and said to Jiang Haicheng, "Ask Chen Shuo to send me all three plans. I will attend the meeting with you today."
Nine forty.
Lu Xingchen was sorting out data with Wen Qing, the office clerk. Zhuang Su and his assistant Yang Xu were preparing for a meeting with meeting materials. When they walked to Wen Qing's desk, he knocked on the screen and said, "Lu Xingchen, come with me to the meeting."
Lu Xingchen stood up, but Zhuang Su walked away without looking back. Lu Xingchen thought he had heard wrongly. Wen Qingqing pushed Lu Xingchen's arm excitedly: "Boss Zhuang asked you to go to the case-deciding meeting together, hurry up!"
Lu Xingchen arrived at the conference room and watched the formally dressed senior executives take their seats at the conference table one after another. There were people sitting next to Zhuang Su and Yang Xu, so she took a small stool and sat in the audience seat.
People who entered the conference room would only glance at her at most.
The first person to greet her was Chen Xiaolin, who was wearing a smart suit and holding a laptop bag. She was surprised and then excited and shouted, "Xingchen?" Then she strode towards her and said, "Why don't you sit on it."
Lu Xingchen didn't know how many people were in the meeting, who were there, and who would sit in which seat. She was called here at short notice, so she shouldn't just join in the fun and sit down. Besides, this was based on experience. In previous meetings, her colleagues had arranged for her to sit on a small bench.
Lu Xingchen smiled at Chen Xiaolin, "I'm just here to listen, it doesn't matter where I sit."
"Then sit next to me."
"No, go ahead."
Chen Xiaolin's stay made people who originally would not pay attention to Lu Xingchen look over and talk about it.
“Is she this year’s champion?”
"A newcomer who has been promoted twice?"
"Why has there been no follow-up to the champion work?"
Chen Xiaolin also noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and apologized to Lu Xingchen in a low voice: "Don't take it to heart, they are all leaders of different departments, I am just curious and have no ill intentions..."
"Boss Li and Boss Jiang are here." Someone said.
Everyone immediately sat down in their seats, and the conference room fell silent. Chen Xiaolin had no choice but to wink at Lu Xingchen and whispered, "The boss is here, I'll leave first."
Lu Xingchen nodded.
Then Li Zhen and Jiang Haicheng walked into the meeting room, followed by Luo Shi and Chen Shu.
The two of them sat at the upper seats on both sides of the conference table, Luo Shi sat next to Li Zhen and Chen Shu sat next to Jiang Haicheng.
Jiang Haicheng crossed his legs out of habit as soon as he sat down.
Li Zhen nodded expressionlessly to the host of the meeting. At this time, he saw Lu Xingchen sitting in the corner. He was a little surprised at first, and then his eyes became particularly soft.
Ouyang Hui, who was sitting diagonally opposite Li Zhen, was startled. It seemed that President Li was smiling. Who was he smiling at? She was a married woman with a family and children.
Only Chen Xiaolin understood. She turned around and looked at Lu Xingchen, then winked.
Lu Xingchen saw everything and behaved obediently as her auditor.
Normally, when Li Zhen is present at a meeting, there isn't much formality in the conversation, so the meeting quickly turns to the report phase of the planning proposal.
The person in charge of explaining the "Smart Business District" is AI Minister Zhou Shuheng. Because the smart business district was originally planned within the area of the future real estate project, as long as there is no problem with the planning content and structure, it will be a natural thing.
The person responsible for giving the report on "Autonomous Assisted Driving" is the AI director, Chen Xiaolin, who won the third place this year with "Autonomous Driving".
Chen Xiaolin's plan was very accurate both in terms of content and data support, and her calm and clear explanation made the plan even better.
After listening to this, executives from other departments reread the plan and nodded. Ouyang Hui, who was sitting next to Jiang Haicheng, also told him that this project had great prospects.
Jiang Haicheng just smiled at her. He also felt that it was not a big problem, but Li Zhen was not very optimistic.
So after Chen Xiaolin gave her perfect report, the big boss Li Zhen was slow to respond. Others couldn't help but look at him, waiting for him to nod and make the final decision.
Li Zhen did not open the three plans in front of him. He just looked at the people present and asked, "Any other suggestions?"
Everyone was stunned, and then looked at each other.
Isn’t this the result of a joint discussion between the market and AI? Isn’t Mr. Li satisfied?
Some people discussed in a low voice, but in the end no one spoke up. Firstly, they were relatively satisfied with the two reports; secondly, they could not come up with better suggestions than these two plans in a short period of time; thirdly, even if they had different opinions, those who were not of high enough level did not dare to make comments.
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhuang Su raised his hand and said, "I have a suggestion that I would like to take an unpopular approach, but I don't have a specific report. Would you like to listen to it, Mr. Li?"
Li Zhen raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Zhuang Su turned around and said to the person sitting by the wall: "Lu Xingchen, you tell me."
