After the divorce, Gu Shao turned on the loyal dog mode

Chapter 56 Another CEO
Xue Lin took Jin Qian to visit the garment room and handmade area. People were coming and going in the company, and everyone had work in their hands. The noisy sound of machines and the sound of people talking, everyone was busy. The new autumn fashion week was about to begin, and the major studios were also preparing intensively.

Jin Qian had no intention of participating in the fashion week, so she handed in the design drafts directly to Xue Lin, and she was free to be a hands-off boss.

Xue Lin was already used to it, and took on the task without complaint.

While Jin Qian was strolling around the dressing room, Xue Lin returned to the office to process documents.

After a while, Xue Lin came running over and said, "My dear Miss, there was a call from Gu Corporation just now."

"So fast?" Jin Qian was a little surprised. They had just finished talking about this matter and Gu happened to come over.

"I did what you told me before. They said they would come to the company for an interview later." Xue Lin said, blinking and looking at Jin Qian, "What should we do next? You tell me!"

"Find a conference room with surveillance cameras. You can try to get him to say something later."

"Trying to get answers? What?" Xue Lin asked curiously.

"It stands to reason that the Gu Group is not involved in the clothing industry, so there is actually no reason to support him in the acquisition. Let's find out what his purpose is in the acquisition!" Jin Qian analyzed calmly. "I will be next door. If anything happens, you call me."

"Okay!" Xue Lin nodded. With Jin Qian's words, he felt much more at ease.

Although Jin Qian did not interfere in the company's affairs, in the early days of the company, it was Jin Qian who alone supported the company's business.

At that time, Jin Qian was still a high school student and met him in a bar. He had just resigned and was worried about having no source of income. At that time, Jin Qian found her and took the initiative to propose to start a business together.

Looking back at Jin Qian at that time, although she was single, her vigorous and decisive approach to doing things has not changed at all from now.

"Boss Xue, Boss Gu has arrived at the company."

The front desk clerk's voice came over the phone.

"Take him to Conference Room 2 on the tenth floor."

After hanging up the phone, Xue Lin looked at Jin Qian and asked, "Let's go to the meeting room first?"

The two walked to the door of the conference room and separated. Jin Qian went into the next room, which was actually a control room. Once the monitoring and multimedia equipment in the conference room were turned on, she could see the situation and sounds on the opposite side.

After a while, the door of the conference room was opened.

Gu Chen walked in with Jiang Zhu, and his figure appeared on the screen in front of Jin Qian.

"Mr. Gu!" Xue Lin extended his hand and said politely, "My name is Xue Lin."

"I know." Gu Chen shook Xue Lin's hand back, "I know JS, an internationally renowned fashion designer. I've heard of him for a long time."

"I am so honored that Mr. Gu said so." Xue Lin called to his assistant, "Mr. Gu, what would you like to drink?"

"No need." Gu Chen placed a document on the table. "This is the acquisition plan. I'm here for this too."

Xue Lin took it and looked at it, his expression unchanged, "Boss Gu, Gu Group has sent someone to investigate before, but I'm still very curious why Gu Group suddenly wants to acquire a clothing company."

"Could it be that the Gu Group wants to enter the clothing industry?"

Xue Lin blocked Gu Chen's statement in advance, and Gu Chen smiled, "Hasn't Mr. Xue already said what I wanted to say?" Xue Lin drank the water without any expression, but he cursed Gu Chen eight hundred times in his heart.

What an old fox! It's so hard to get anyone to talk to him.

"Of course, the entire plan is just the initial version at the moment. If you have any requirements, Mr. Xue, you can raise them again." Gu Chen was polite and reciprocated, and he obviously had the upper hand.

He looked around the conference room, finally stopping at the camera in the upper right corner, and smiled meaningfully.

Jin Qian happened to see this scene on the screen. She looked at Gu Chen across the camera screen. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She had an illusion that Gu Chen knew something.

"Mr. Gu, you chose Shengjing because of its development in recent years, right? Now, Shengjing is developing well and there is no economic crisis. Everything is moving forward prosperously. Mr. Gu, why do you think I will definitely agree to this acquisition plan?"

"For the current Shengjing, being accepted by Gu's is not the best choice."

What Xue Lin said was true. He did not refuse explicitly, but he had implicitly expressed his disagreement.

"Let's talk business. After being incorporated into Gu's, your company's many studios will get more opportunities." Gu Chen said slowly, "As far as I know, most of your company's income is obtained by single-digit star studios, but your company has nearly a hundred studios, and you rely entirely on the sky-high fees of star designers to support many unknown designer teams."

"Aren't you tired of holding so many people back like this?" Gu Chen said very bluntly. Assistant Jiang put down an analysis report. "The data is very clear. Mr. Xue must be aware of this disadvantage in his heart."

"Joining Gu's is different. Gu's Group is involved in many industries. We can provide many internal opportunities for all of your design teams."

“Isn’t it good to win together?”

What Gu Chen said was indeed correct. The monopoly industrial chain owned by large companies can support the survival of several companies.

Being incorporated into the Gu Group does have certain advantages.

"But Mr. Gu, once Shengjing starts taking on many profitable projects as you said, it will be no different from an ordinary design company." Xue Lin retorted, "You may think that the studio model divides us into different levels, which will cause us a disadvantage. But at the same time, this is a disadvantage, but also an advantage, and it is our characteristic."

"Only when the levels are clear can many designers be motivated to strive to win the top prize in the internal evaluation. To be more precise, this is our company's internal elimination system. It is precisely because of this that Shengjing can firmly maintain its position as the leader in fashion design."

Gu Chen smiled. "Mr. Xue has a point. I admit that it makes sense. Your company's system does have its advantages."

"But can Mr. Xue make the decision and represent the attitude of the entire Shengjing?"

His smile was meaningful. Xue Lin twisted his neck uncomfortably. "Mr. Gu, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"I am the CEO of Shengjing, can't I make the final decision?"

"But, I found out that Shengjing has two presidents. What is the other one's opinion?"

Speaking of this, Xue Lin frowned in confusion, while Jin Qian on the other side of the camera clenched her fists.

The doubt in my heart became reality
Sure enough, when Gu Chen came here, he must have found something.

Acquiring Shengjing was not his plan at all!

Gu Chen's voice came from the screen again. He said slowly to the camera, "I want to meet the other president of Shengjing, QIAN."
