Chapter 1739: Wang Qiang's Girlfriend

The temperament of a corporate leader determines the company's development direction and even its pace of growth.

For example, a conservative leader, when making decisions, will certainly hesitate and look ahead and behind, even missing many opportunities. But this also has its benefits: although the company develops slowly, it is not prone to mistakes.

On the other hand, a radical leader, when making decisions, often likes to take risks, even working in a gambling manner. The advantage is that once successful, the company can reap huge benefits and develop rapidly. But the disadvantage is that if it fails, the company will inevitably suffer a major blow.

These two temperaments cannot be simply judged as good or bad. If compared, radical leaders are suitable for companies in the startup phase, because at that time, a company wants to grow from nothing to something, from small to large. If the leader does not have a bold spirit of daring to be the first and disregarding everything, it is difficult to break out from the crowd.

Conversely, once a company achieves success and reaches a certain scale, the person in charge must have a steady mindset.

Previously, Zhao Fusheng always liked to take risks, and Zheng Yao had always worried whether he would still be like that now.

But this time, he actually took the initiative to reject Lee Kun-hee's probe, which surprised her.

You know, if it were the old Zhao Fusheng, he definitely would not have refused.

But this time, his direct rejection of Lee Kun-hee made Zheng Yao realize that perhaps Zhao Fusheng had already discovered the crux of the problem.

"What's the matter? Didn't expect it?"

Seeing Zheng Yao's expression, Zhao Fusheng smiled and said.

Zheng Yao nodded, and without hiding anything, asked Zhao Fusheng: "Now, do you think the company should play it safe?"

"Yes."

Zhao Fusheng shrugged: "I'm not a child. Do you think I don't understand what this means?"

Zheng Yao helplessly rolled her eyes, feeling that talking with Zhao Fusheng was really a headache.

This guy was simply sent by heaven to punish her.

"Just wait."

After a long while, Zhao Fusheng said to Zheng Yao: "Before Alibaba goes public, we won't make any moves. Just watch them."

"Huh?"

Zheng Yao was startled, somewhat surprised.

Obviously, she hadn't expected Zhao Fusheng to be this steady.

Clearly, before Alibaba officially goes public, Zhao Fusheng didn't plan to have Future Group or its subsidiaries make any moves, intending to continue maintaining the current stable development posture.

"Just wait and see."

Zhao Fusheng said calmly: "Be prepared. Starting next year, we have a lot to do."

He saw further than Zheng Yao. Although Future Group's development was already quite good, Zhao Fusheng knew there were still many opportunities, and Future Group had even greater room for development in the future.

To be honest, regarding the shares of these companies held by Future Investment, Zhao Fusheng had already made a decision.

It was impossible to keep such a large share. As several companies go public, more and more capital institutions will enter, and Future Investment's shares will inevitably be diluted.

Of course, the company's market value will definitely become higher and higher.

Under these circumstances, Zhao Fusheng felt that his best choice was actually to try to ensure that the company's shares were not diluted too much, and then choose to cash out.

"I understand what you mean."

Zheng Yao nodded. Although Zhao Fusheng didn't say much, she knew he definitely had his own plan in mind.

...

...

Leaving the company, Zhao Fusheng received a call from Ye Jing.

"There's something I think you should ask about." Ye Jing said to Zhao Fusheng.

"What's up?"

Zhao Fusheng was a bit surprised.

"It's like this: Wang Qiang has a girlfriend." Ye Jing said with a wry smile.

"That's normal." Zhao Fusheng was taken aback, then said: "How old is he? He's not a child. It's normal to have a girlfriend. Keep an eye on him, just make sure he doesn't get fooled."

This was his honest opinion. Wang Qiang was not a child; he was in his twenties, full of youthful vigor. It would be strange if he didn't have a girlfriend.

"That's the problem. Lately, maybe because he shot an art film, the kid's been a bit off. Somehow he got to know a girl from a media school, and now he brings her to every event. He pays for it himself, but I don't think it's a good idea." Ye Jing hesitated, then told Zhao Fusheng the truth.

After all, it was no secret in the company that Zhao Fusheng and Fan Baobao treated Wang Qiang like a younger brother.

For Ye Jing, although these connections were a headache, the problem was that he himself was one of them.

Even as a big shot in the Beijing circle, Ye Jing knew well that if it weren't for his personal friendship with Zhao Fusheng, he wouldn't have such a big say in Future Film.

After all, Future Film was now one of the top three private film companies in the country, and here, his word was almost law.

The reason for this outcome was that Zhao Fusheng treated him as a friend and trusted him.

Otherwise, according to normal rules, the company would have had a professional manager assigned by the group.

Just like how Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei treated Wang Jinghua back then.

"I see..."

After listening to Ye Jing, Zhao Fusheng frowned. He really didn't know about Wang Qiang's situation. Although he hadn't been busy with many things lately, no one would take the initiative to tell him about such trivial matters.

Come to think of it, as his status and position rose, Zhao Fusheng felt that the distance between him and those around him was growing. Sometimes, he wasn't even as close to them as Fan Baobao was.

He guessed that if it weren't absolutely necessary, Ye Jing wouldn't have called him.

Thinking this, Zhao Fusheng said, "I'll have Baobao ask him what's going on. Don't worry."

Ye Jing nodded and hung up.

Putting down the phone, Zhao Fusheng called Fan Baobao, explained the situation, and finally said, "Tell Wang Qiang to bring the girl home. Let's take a look and help him decide."

Fan Baobao had no objection and agreed directly.

Half an hour later, in a hotel in the capital.

Wang Qiang received a call from Fan Baobao.

"Come to dinner tonight, and bring your girlfriend for me to see."

Fan Baobao didn't stand on ceremony and said directly to Wang Qiang.

"Ah, got it, sis."

Wang Qiang nodded honestly, put down the phone, and said to the girl beside him, "We're going to my sister's place for dinner tonight. She and her brother-in-law want to meet you."

"Your sister?"

The girl was tall, with long hair, big eyes, and slightly full lips. She was quite pretty.

At that moment, hearing Wang Qiang's words, she was a bit surprised.

She knew about Wang Qiang's family situation. He had sisters, but they were all farming in the countryside. How did he suddenly have a sister and brother-in-law in the capital?

Wang Qiang nodded: "Mm, my sworn sister. I used to be a background extra with her at Beijing Film Academy. I lived at her place for a while. Later, she and Sister Zhou both got married, so I moved out."

"Sister Zhou?" The girl was taken aback again.

"Mm, another sister. She's married too." Wang Qiang said with a smile.

Then he remembered and said, "Oh, right, you should know Sister Zhou's husband—it's Brother Jiang Wen."

Jiang Wen!

The girl's eyes lit up, and her whole demeanor changed.

A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Jiang Wen's name was thunderous in the entire Chinese film and television circle. As a student at a media university, the girl naturally knew who he was.

Previously, she had only thought Wang Qiang was honest and easy to handle. She hadn't expected him to know Jiang Wen's new wife.

Thinking this, her gaze toward Wang Qiang shifted.

Originally, she just wanted to hook a sugar daddy. Now it seemed this sugar daddy had some pull.

"Maybe I should stick it out a bit longer?"

The girl mused to herself.

Originally, she had planned to break up with Wang Qiang soon. She had already gotten plenty of benefits from him, and if he had no outstanding qualities, she was ready to end it.

An ugly comedian from a poor background—why would a beauty like her fall for him? If it weren't for his money and fame, only a fool would have a boyfriend like him.

But she didn't know that this time, she was about to get an unexpected surprise.
