Li Jingjing found a seat and sat down. She nodded at her father, but the old man didn’t even look at her.
The company’s bosses, who were usually respectful to him, simply nodded when they saw Li Jingjing enter. They didn’t say anything more.
The atmosphere was strange. It seemed that there was a major change in the company.
“We’re in a meeting, let me say something first. ”
Although old master Li was already over fifty years old, he still looked very stylish with his dyed hair, a formal suit, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Li Jingjing’s expression was calm as she looked straight ahead. She could guess what the old man was thinking. He wanted to weaken her management power so that he could take over some big projects.
Li Jingjing had no intention of monopolizing the power and management of the Li group’s economy. He had his own talent. Even if he wasn’t in the Li Group, he still had the ability and the conditions to create his own world.
Because Li Jingjing was confident and self-aware, she didn’t feel any panic or anger when her father came to the company to announce some special rules.
Li Jingjing knew that her father’s feelings for him had been relatively dull since he was young. This was also the reason why he had moved out of the old house early and lived alone.
The estrangement between her and her father deepened after her mother passed away from her illness. In less than half a year, her father impatiently married his stepmother Fang Ling, who had long been in close contact with others.
Li Jingjing suspected that her mother’s death had a lot to do with her father’s outrageous behavior. Her mother, who had always been strong-minded, was unwilling to say that she wouldn’t come, but she must have been very upset. In addition, the company was busy and hard, so she had become sick from overwork.
Li Jingjing knew very well that her father’s mediocre talent alone could not have made the Li family’s business flourish. Her mother was better at management, so she had helped her father build the Li Group.
When Li Jingjing grew up, she realized that her determination and resilience were inherited from her mother.
Not only was her stepmother young and beautiful, but she would also try to please her father, making him feel deeply honored.
Especially after they had a second son, who was named li Jingrui, he was regarded as precious as a piece of jewelry and had been carefully cultivated since childhood.
She had grown up in such an environment. When life was peaceful again, Li Jingjing didn’t think much about it.
It was just that later on, he accidentally overheard his stepmother, Fang Ling, making a phone call behind someone’s back and calling him ‘brother’. She even said that there was no problem with the cash flow and that she had the final say in the Li family.
Li Jingjing guessed that Fang Ling wasn’t a simple woman who only knew how to please men. She didn’t look like anything special on the surface, but Li Jingjing guessed that she had been secretly spying on the Li family’s assets.
In the first two years of Li Jingjing’s tenure as the president, he had gone to the financial headquarters several times to check the accounts, but he hadn’t found any special cash flow. Later on, he had been busy with work and didn’t pay much attention to it.
Her father’s health was getting better and better under Fang Ling’s care. Li Jingjing was still grateful to Fang Ling, so she didn’t fuss about the grudges and grievances from before.
Li Jingjing sat in the meeting room and looked straight ahead. She was thinking about the reason why her father had come to the company this time. It seemed that his health had improved and he wanted to take back the management power.
The other bosses were also sitting upright, waiting for Chairman li to speak.
“For the better development of the Li Group, I have decided to step back into the group and exercise management power from today on!”
The chairman’s speech was calm and powerful, and this decision was warmly welcomed by every CEO present.
“At the same time, I’ve decided that I’ll personally take over the Li group’s largest cooperation projects in the medical health care and medical equipment categories!”
After Chairman li announced his decision, the bosses in the meeting room were all puzzled. They all turned to look at President Li Jingjing.
This project was currently the Li group’s largest project and also the most profitable one. It involved many units at home and abroad, cooperated with many large medical companies, and also contacted the local government’s medical and Drug Administration departments.
Although the health care projects were extremely profitable and good for the company’s development prospects, they were not easy to complete.
Li Jingjing had put in a lot of effort for this. She worked overtime when she was busy and worked day and night with the company’s higher-ups to come up with ideas and visit some medical units.
He had gone overseas for a business trip some time ago to discuss this business and successfully signed the cooperation contract.
This large-scale cooperation project had just begun on the right track, and his father wanted to take over directly? The rest of the journey might not be as smooth and easy as he had thought.
Li Jingjing looked at her father in confusion. She didn’t believe that her father was so professional in this area, nor did he have the ability to handle Foreign Affairs and public relations.
Moreover, his father had been recuperating in his hometown for several years. Would he be able to take over such a large and complicated project?
Li Jingjing didn’t understand her father’s intentions. If it was for the stable development of the Li Group, he shouldn’t have made such a foolish decision.
In order to complete this big project, half of the company’s funds had been invested in the launch of the health care project. If anything went wrong in the process, it would be an unprecedented blow to the Li Group.
His father had probably never considered this point.
Li Jingjing wasn’t trying to fight for the title of project leader, but he couldn’t help but feel deeply worried for his father’s reckless decision and for the company.
After his father made this decision, the bosses of the other projects who attended the meeting nodded in agreement and even said some good words to please him.
“With President li in charge, I believe this project will progress even faster.”
“Yes, this project has been progressing slowly. With President Li’s intervention, it will definitely develop faster.”
This was a high-level meeting, not a private one. When Li Jingjing was trying to please them, she glanced sharply at the bosses who were casually talking, and they immediately shut up.
In fact, everyone knew what they had done. The purpose of these topics could not be more obvious. Everyone knew that the chairman was the chairman.
From the conversation with the chairman before the meeting, these CEOs knew that there was something going on between the two.
The Chairman’s appearance this time was to return to the company and regain power.
As the senior figures of the company, the Presidents of several departments naturally took advantage of the situation. They all sided with the most powerful person in the Li Group, the Li family’s old master, Chairman li.
Li Jingjing had never been a person who chased after fame and fortune. He had only taken on heavy responsibilities in the past few years and tried his best to make the company develop better and better.
Now, seeing that his father had made such a decision without discussing it with him, he felt a little depressed.
