Zhao Feiyan had become a "chairwoman" herself, while Chen Yue was still just a hotel manager.
Compared to Zhao Feiyan's massive progress, Chen Yue's "progress" didn't even measure up to an ant's crawl.
In fact, Jiang Aiying had once advised Chen Yue to invest and open another hotel for herself.
That way, being her own boss would be better than being under someone else's thumb.
Unfortunately, Chen Yue had experienced a failed investment once, and it had left a scar on her heart.
Even though she now had sufficient capital for investment, she lacked the courage to face the risks head-on!
Since she didn't have the guts to invest and be her own boss, she wanted to achieve something significant while working under someone else.
There was no other way; Chen Yue could only come to Jiang Aiying for help now.
The reason Jiang Aiying reluctantly agreed to Chen Yue's request was to help maintain Zhao Dajun's family relationships.
If Chen Yue's demands were not met, the marital relationship between Chen Yue and Zhao Dajun would not be harmonious.
Extending that, the entire Zhao family would be thrown into chaos!
The most representative example of this was Zhao Dajun's own job placement issue back then.
To arrange a job for Zhao Dajun, both the Liu and Zhao families were thrown into turmoil.
In the end, it was Liu Kai Xuan who, with a flash of inspiration and wisdom, resolved this thorny problem.
Now, Zhao Dajun served as the "security manager" at Liu Kai Xuan's home.
Liu Kai Xuan owned five villas, each requiring supervision.
Liu Kai Xuan had entrusted Zhao Dajun with the responsibility of arranging and dispatching security personnel.
He received a high salary and held a manager position, thus gaining status and face.
Although this job position lacked real power, as long as he could earn money and maintain his dignity, Zhao Dajun was already very satisfied.
As long as Zhao Dajun could earn a high income, Chen Yue would have little to nag him about.
...
The next afternoon, during a brief break from work, Jiang Aiying found Zhao Feiyan to discuss the matter.
On this particular issue, Zhao Feiyan showed great magnanimity.
After Jiang Aiying stated her request, Zhao Feiyan immediately declared that she would arrange for Chen Yue to work at the head office as soon as possible.
Her salary and benefits would also be significantly increased compared to her current standards.
Zhao Feiyan's cheerful agreement to Jiang Aiying's request, in turn, made Jiang Aiying a bit embarrassed.
"Feiyan, you've helped our family quite a lot over the years!"
"Your brother and sister-in-law, at their age, still don't know any better..."
"What you've arranged for them is already very good, but people are never truly satisfied!"
Zhao Feiyan replied with a smile, "Mom, don't worry about work matters!"
"I can handle it now. We are all family!"
"It's only right for family members to be united and harmonious!"
"However, you are getting older and should go back and rest for a while!"
"How about you move into our villa with Dad and rest there!"
"I'll send someone else to the restaurant; you don't need to worry about it!"
"No, no, no..."
Jiang Aiying repeatedly shook her head and smiled back, "Forget it, Feiyan!"
"Your father and I are used to being busy all our lives!"
"Now, at the restaurant, we just help out occasionally. This is actually quite good, allowing us to keep our bodies active!"
"If the two old folks were to just stay at home doing nothing, we would feel even more restless!"
"Alas, alright!"
Zhao Feiyan sighed helplessly, "Since you two have made up your minds, I won't force you!"
"However, Mom, you must take care of your health!"
"Don't overwork yourself and ruin your health, understand!"
"I understand!"
Jiang Aiying replied with a wry smile, "You silly girl, your Dad and I have been through so much over the years; we're not as delicate as you think!"
In reality, under Zhao Feiyan's current arrangements, Jiang Aiying and Zhao Tianhai's workload had already become significantly lighter than before.
However, what Zhao Feiyan truly desired was for the two elders to stay at home and enjoy their retirement peacefully.
The income from Feiyan Restaurant was now less than a drop in the ocean for the current Zhao Feiyan.
But the health of Zhao Tianhai and Jiang Aiying was of utmost importance to Zhao Feiyan.
...
One morning, Liu Kai Xuan summoned all the company veterans to the conference room to discuss the company's next phase of development.
Liu Kai Xuan's intention was to expedite the development of the automotive industry.
Developing their own automobile factory and this project would inevitably propel the company's overall development to a brand new level.
However, the company was currently a joint-stock enterprise, and Liu Kai Xuan still needed to consult with the shareholders on his decisions.
Everyone had different opinions on Liu Kai Xuan's idea.
Liu Yu Long was the first to express his stance: "If the Chairman wants to develop the automotive industry, then we will develop the automotive industry. I fully support the Chairman's plan!"
After all, Liu Yu Long was Liu Kai Xuan's staunch confidant, and he naturally had to fully support Liu Kai Xuan on this matter.
Liu Kai Xuan nodded, gesturing for others to speak.
Li Ya continued, "The automobile manufacturing industry involves a vast scope!"
"If we start developing it from scratch ourselves, the difficulty will increase exponentially!"
"I have researched some foreign car companies. In their initial development stages, they generally chose joint ventures to develop their automotive industries!"
"This way, they can leverage the mature management models and technological reserves of foreign car companies!"
Liu Yu Qian countered, "Li Ya, you must not treat foreigners as fools!"
"Do you think they would let us exploit their technology and talent for free!"
"If we approach foreigners for cooperation now, they may not be willing to cooperate with us!"
"Even if we manage to reach a cooperative intent, we would have to give up a significant amount of profit!"
Li Ya nodded and responded, "What you say is true, but as long as both parties can benefit, the cooperation is worthwhile!"
Liu Yu Qian and Li Ya, holding conflicting views, were in a stalemate.
At this moment, Liu Kai Xuan shifted his gaze to Tang Feng.
Tang Feng's current position was the deputy manager of Meng Hu Industrial Company.
Although he was only a deputy manager, he had earned this position through hard work and dedication.
When Tang Feng first joined the company, he was merely a sales representative.
Later, due to his exceptional business acumen, Liu Kai Xuan promoted him step by step.
