"I'm just feeling a little emotional. Time flies so fast. One year has passed so quickly," I said.

"Yeah, I'm another year older. It's really annoying. When I go home, I have to be forced to get married again." Li Wenjing pouted.

"Are you okay at your age?" I smiled.

"You're not young anymore. You're twenty-eight years old. Have you never heard of the saying that a woman is a piece of shit at thirty?" Li Wenjing continued.

As soon as I said this, I grinned. I remember that during the Spring Festival Gala, there was a skit that said that men are thirty-one flowers and women are thirty-year-old dregs. But this was all a long time ago. Nowadays, women care about their skin.

, all of them, as long as they are under forty years old, are as beautiful as a flower. Of course, if you want to be young, you have to spend a lot of money.

"Cindy, please stop complaining. You are only twenty-eight and in your prime." I smiled.

"Brother Chen, I plan to ask for leave to go back to my hometown starting tomorrow. Please approve it." Li Wenjing said and took out a leave application note.

When I saw the leave application form, I looked at Li Wenjing in surprise.

"Brother Chen, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and our purchasing team has nothing to do. Can I ask for leave?" Li Wenjing continued.

"Of course you can ask for leave." I smiled, picked up the pen, and signed.

After I signed here, Li Wenjing smiled.

There is nothing in the company in the past two days. In addition to the year-end bonus at the end of the year, Chuangyao Company also has a shopping card of 2,000 yuan for each person. It is considered a company benefit. Because this year is really not easy, this year’s trip is also cancelled.

, but the year-end bonus is still the same as in previous years, not necessarily less.

Just when I turned on my computer and looked at some year-end summaries written by each group, my landline rang.

"Hello?" I answered the phone.

"Chen Nan, there is a board meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon in the large conference room on the 28th floor. Please attend." Zhou Yaosen said.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou." I nodded in agreement.

As soon as I hung up the phone, I felt a little surprised and uncertain, always feeling like something was going to happen.

The holiday is coming soon. Before the holiday, many things will be suspended and will be followed up after the year. Therefore, the company is not busy for the time being. However, during this period, when I just joined the board of directors and became the director of the Binjiang Project, suddenly

I was still a little unprepared to hold a board meeting.

How should I put it, the board of directors are all veterans, they are all the people who followed Zhou Yaosen to make a fortune. They have been in high positions all year round, and I am just a newcomer. At best, I am Zhou Yaosen’s son-in-law. I have some reputations, but seniority is used in ranking.

I don't have anything to offer.

Han Yan had reminded me before that when I entered the board of directors, there would definitely be people who would be dissatisfied and even find fault with me. But today in the board of directors, I was still a little nervous.

Of course, my relationship with Zhou Yaosen is different in private, but when we talk about things on the table, Zhou Yaosen, as the president of Chuangyao Group, is relatively neutral in his words. If he is too biased, it will definitely not work.

Taking a deep breath, I don’t even know what the board of directors will talk about now, but generally speaking, it should be the company’s future development, or some suggestions, or it may involve personal opinions.

After lunch, I returned to the office, but I was still a little nervous. I didn't know why, but I always felt a little uncomfortable.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong with you? Why do you feel a little uneasy?" Li Wenjing looked at me doubtfully.

"At two o'clock in the afternoon, I am going to have a board meeting. This is the first time." I said.

"This is a good thing. Brother Chen, you have joined the board of directors and the appointment letter has been issued a long time ago. You should go. If you are not present at the board meeting, people will feel that no one takes you seriously." Li Wenjing explained.

"Well, you have to face what you have to face sooner or later." I nodded.

"Brother Chen, I hope you can leave a good impression on these big guys." Li Wenjing said with a smile.

"Okay." I nodded in agreement.

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, I left the office and approached the elevator entrance.

"Manager Chen."

At the sound of these words, I turned around and saw Marketing Director Xie Fengnian.

"Thank you, Director." I greeted him hurriedly.

"We're going to have a board meeting, right?" Xie Fengnian said, walking to the elevator with me and pressing the button.

"Yes." I nodded.

"Don't be nervous. There are many directors in the company. Although you are a newcomer, Mr. Zhou still has high expectations for you." Xie Fengnian said.

"Director Xie, I'm not familiar with the board members. I haven't met many of them. It will be a bit awkward to meet them later," I said.

To be honest, I have only been in the company for a short time. At the beginning, I went directly to the project site of Magic Town. In addition to the project director Fang Dezhong, the people I contacted were Zhang Muhoujun and other grassroots employees. Later, I came to the purchasing team of the marketing department.

, the person I contacted was the marketing director Xie Fengnian, and in addition, the administrative director Yuan Zhu. Apart from these three, I don’t know anyone else.

"Manager Chen, Susan, the HR manager, is an employee director. She was elected by the employees at a staff meeting. In addition to Manager Su, they are the administrative director Yuan Zhu, the project director Fang Dezhong, the financial director Guo Da, and the business director Gao Yao.

Executive Director Zhang Jiaming and Promotion Director Ye Xiu'e, our Chuangyao Group has a small board of directors, just a few people."

When the elevator arrived, Xie Fengnian explained to me.

I tried my best and started memorizing names.

"Manager Chen, regarding the meeting, everyone has a nameplate in front of them. You can tell by looking at their names that everyone has their own seat." Xie Fengnian continued.

"Okay." I nodded.

Soon, Xie Fengnian and I took the elevator together and arrived at the 28th floor.

We came to the 28th floor of the capital and walked towards the large conference room together.

When I walked into the conference room, I saw a relatively large long table, and a woman wearing a business suit came to visit the nameplate. I saw Yuan Zhu and Susan at a glance.

Susan is the manager of the human resources department. I had contacted her when I came to the company to report earlier.

Today, Yuan Zhu was wearing a black suit. He was sitting there like this. On the table in front of him was a cup of tea and a nameplate that read 'Administrative Director Yuan Zhu'. As for Susan, who was sitting next to her, she saw me and said:

I smiled.

Susan gives people a feeling of spring breeze, and her smile is very sweet. She probably has better interpersonal relationships in the company, and is not responsible for being a representative at the workers' meeting.

In addition to Yuan Zhu and Susan, I met two other middle-aged men.

The two looked me up and down. One had curly hair and a Chinese character face, and the other was a bit bald.

According to the nameplate placed in front of me, I can confirm that the curly-haired man with a Chinese character face is the financial director Guo Da, and the business director Gao Yao.

"Manager Chen, hello." Yuan Zhu said with a faint smile.

"Hahahaha, this is Manager Chen Nan and Chen, I heard Mr. Zhou mention it." Guo Da laughed.

"Manager Chen, sit here!" Gao Yao patted the seat next to him. There was my nameplate there, which was obviously my seat.

"Manager Chen, Director Xie, please sit down and have a cup of tea first. Mr. Zhou will be here soon." The woman who placed the tea said with a smile.

"Okay!" I nodded in agreement.

Soon, Xie Fengnian and I took our seats, and at this time Xie Fengnian told me that the woman who placed the tea was the secretary of the board of directors, named Zhao Yingchun.
Chapter completed!
