As soon as the Lantern Festival was over, the late - spring cold disappeared all of a sudden, and the days of spring with warm flowers in full bloom arrived. The streets and alleys in Anzhou City were full of greenery and flowers, and the breath of spring was floating in the air, making this busy international metropolis become lazy.
But Qin Chun couldn't stop to enjoy this beautiful spring scenery. She had too many things to be busy with.
The Mr. Wang who was originally an alternative candidate in Qinyuan Energy finally returned from his hometown and had an interview under the mediation of the head - hunting company. This Mr. Wang was named Wang Zheyuan. He looked very rugged, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and also had a full beard. He was also very tall, estimated to be around 185 cm.
Qin Chun communicated with him for half an hour. Her first impression was that this person was indeed a talent with real abilities, but there was a bit of unruly air in his bones and might be difficult to control.
But Qin Chun didn't have a better candidate at present, so she made up her mind to choose him and reduced the three - month probation period to one month, inviting him to join the Qinyuan family with the greatest sincerity.
After discussing all that should be discussed and agreeing on the entry time (he would officially start work the day after tomorrow), Wang Zheyuan still sat on the sofa without moving, as if there was something hard to say.
The head - hunter who came with him reminded, "Mr. Wang, then let's go first. Director Qin still has things to be busy with, and we shouldn't disturb her too much."
Wang Zheyuan stood up, but still didn't move his feet, hesitating to speak.
Qin Chun was puzzled and took the initiative to say, "Director Wang, you will be a member of our Qinyuan in the future. Just say whatever you want. Don't be polite with me."
Wang Zheyuan's eyes lit up, "Well, Director Qin, then I'll be cheeky and say it. Can you advance me 200,000 yuan of my salary? I'm in urgent need of it, and I can't find anyone to borrow from for a while. Don't worry. I will definitely come to work and will do my best at work. I won't renege on my debt and take your salary for nothing."
The head - hunter beside him was stunned. The position they were recruiting was an executive in a subsidiary of a listed company, and the worth of such a person was at least one million yuan. Wang Zheyuan actually asked his future boss to lend him a mere 200,000 yuan. How down - and - out he must be! It could also be inferred that Wang Zheyuan's current financial situation was very bad and might be heavily in debt. An experienced boss would surely avoid hiring such a person. He saw that the commission that was almost in his hands might fly away.
"Mr. Wang, you are making things difficult for others," he quickly tried to make up for it, "At present, all companies are short of funds. Let's wait until we start working for a while before asking for it."
Wang Zheyuan's face looked a bit gloomy. After a long while, he squeezed out a smile, "I know this request is a bit too much. Forget it. Just pretend you didn't hear it. I - "
"Sure," Qin Chun interrupted him calmly, "But the company has no precedent of lending. I can't break this rule for you either. Well, I'll lend you the money privately for a one - year period. Just remember to pay me back at that time. I'm willing to believe in your character and ability."
Qin Chun didn't know whether her decision was right or not, but she decided to take a gamble.
Wang Zheyuan made such a request, indicating that the troubles around him had reached a desperate level. Normally, she really shouldn't hire Wang Zheyuan any more to avoid continuous troubles in the future regarding this 200,000 yuan.
But she didn't have any other more suitable candidates at present. Moreover, since Xiao Bingyang had chosen Wang Zheyuan among the two candidates before and also said that it was a good opportunity to make Wang Zheyuan be completely loyal to her, lending 200,000 yuan to buy loyalty was not a losing deal.
The worst result was that Wang Zheyuan took the 200,000 yuan and ran away. Then he would no longer be able to gain a foothold in this industry and this city.
After dealing with this matter, it was already noon in the blink of an eye. Qin Chun also had a full schedule in the afternoon. Once the Taohuayuan Town project was restarted, there were too many things following one after another. Besides the follow - up Phase III and light rail construction that needed to keep up, the bidding for several islands also needed to be carried out immediately. Qin Chun planned to introduce several luxury hotels and an entertainment company and start the "Six - Star" project.
Once these major projects were launched, the shortage of funds would immediately become apparent.
Silently calculating in her mind, Qin Chun sent a message to her real - estate agent to inquire about the progress of the sale of one of her properties.
This house was an 18 - year - old adult gift left to her by Qin Chengshan. At present, its estimated value was about 60 million yuan. Because of the urgent sale, she gave the buyer a 10% discount and required full payment within one month. The contract was signed before the Chinese New Year.
The agent confirmed with her that the buyer had almost prepared the funds and could make the payment and change the name on schedule at the end of the month.
After hanging up the phone, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
More than 50 million yuan was just a drop in the bucket for the whole project, but it could be used as reserve funds, so that she didn't need to be too stingy when in urgent need of money.
There were several unread WeChat messages on the screen. She clicked on it and saw that the top one was actually sent by Xiao Bingyang twenty minutes ago. Since she almost couldn't find Xiao Bingyang's WeChat in a flurry that day, she had set a note for him on WeChat so that she could search quickly.
[My throat hurts a little.]
Qin Chun stared at this message, looking at it left and right. For a moment, she suspected that Xiao Bingyang's account had been hacked.
Since they added each other on WeChat on the day of the blind date, the total number of messages they sent in more than three years did not exceed twenty. Moreover, almost all the messages sent by Xiao Bingyang were commanding statements in a condescending manner. Was this pure chatting, soft - spoken message today really sent by Xiao Bingyang?
