Chapter 669 This Is Your Brother-In-Law (1)

The direct result of this situation was that some of Zhao Youming’s decisions were clearly right, but they were obstructed in every way. It was one thing if he wasn’t that good at doing things, but even some of his proposals were shelved.

This made Zhao Youming, who was anxious to make a career in the company and use this opportunity to gain a firm foothold, feel an indescribable frustration. It was the same today.

“I feel that the comprehensive profit of real estate has been rising for the past few years. Although there aren’t as many people buying houses as before, the location in the East Shalnork is very good. As long as we pay more attention to the appearance of the houses, we won’t be afraid of not being able to sell them.” Zhao Youming held the proposal in his hand. There was a faint smile and confidence on his face.

Unfortunately, Zhao Youming’s gentle confidence did not last long before it was broken again.

“I disagree with this point.” As soon as Zhao Youming finished speaking, Zhao Yifei immediately jumped out with a spring and say loudly, “I think Chief Zhao’s proposal is very risky.”

When Zhao Youming saw that Zhao Yifei actually jumped out to object, he finally could not maintain his calm demeanor anymore. With a gloomy face, he asked, “Then tell me, Chief Zhao, what is the big risk?”

Zhao Yifei cast a mocking glance at Zhao Youming. With a sneer, he said, “It’s true that housing prices have been rising for the past few years, but it’s because the rise is too fast and too outrageous that it’s dangerous. Attention has to be given to a certain degree, and when things go too far, the opposite will happen. In the current situation, whether it’s the person who bought the house or the person holding the house in their hands, it’s like walking on a tightrope on a cliff. No one knows when they will suddenly fall down and be beyond redemption. The housing bubble can be burst at any time. Hasn’t the previous financial crisis taught us anything?” Zhao Yifei’s words surprised even Zhao Youlin. Zhao Youlin raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhao Yifei lazily. She didn’t expect that this guy not only knew how to use his advantage to crush Zhao Youming’s proposal, but also knew how to use his advantage to crush Zhao Youming. He even knew such professional terms as the financial crisis and the real estate bubble. Tsk, tsk, tsk. It was really difficult for him.

Zhao Youming was almost choked by Zhao Yifei’s words, after holding it in for a long time, he said in a neutral tone, “If I remember correctly, Chief Zhao is only the department chief of the Human Resources Department. If you have the leisure to criticize the real estate industry, you might as well think about how to recruit more useful talents for the company.”

“Oh?” Zhao Yifei narrowed his eyes when he heard Zhao Youming’s words. However, he was not as impulsive as before. He immediately made a move. He looked at Zhao Youming with a faint smile and asked a question in return, “Chief Zhao, do you mean that I don’t have the right to participate in the decision-making and express my opinion on the decision-making?” Zhao Youming was stunned. He realized that he had misspoken. He bit his lip and did not say anything, but Zhao Yifei became aggressive instead. He deliberately turned his head to ask Zhao Youlin, “General Manager, do you also think that department Chief Zhao is right? As the head of the human resources department, shouldn’t I express my opinion in a decision-making meeting such as this?” Zhao Youlin’s eyes flashed. She realized that Zhao Yifei was deliberately trying to drag her down with him, so she chuckled. She said lightly, “Of course not. In the company, regardless of the size of the department, there is a reason for its existence. Although Chief Zhao is not in charge of this area, the human resources he is in charge of being in the company exists to reserve future talents. If what Chief Zhao said is true and the other Chief Zhao doesn’t know anything about real estate, then what criteria and conditions can he use to recruit talents for the company?”

When Zhao Youlin said this, many people immediately echoed her words. Zhao Youming’s face was terrifyingly gloomy, but Zhao Yifei seemed to have expected this result. His chin was raised high, and there was a trace of arrogance in his eyes.

Zhao Youlin lightly looked askance Zhao Yifei.

He may be standing tall now, but when she unearths all the dark history related to his birth, forget about decision-making power. He may not even have a place in the Zhao Family, or Shalnork itself.

Zhao Yifei did not gloat for long and was choked by Zhao Youlin’s next sentence.

“However, what the department chief of the development department said just now was indeed wrong, but what you said just now may not be right, Chief Zhao.”

The smile on Zhao Yifei’s face suddenly froze, and his face turned cold as he asked in a daze, “What?”

Zhao Youlin took Zhao Youming’s proposal and flipped through it slowly, she said indifferently, “During the financial crisis, the real estate bubble is indeed the most important thing we need to pay attention to in this line of work, but Chief Zhao seems to have forgotten something. More than half of the Zhao Group’s business is in real estate, and more than half of the company’s profits come from real estate. If everyone in the company is as timid as Chief Zhao, how can the company make profits? How can we support such a large group of people in the company?”

Zhao Yifei was stunned, and his lowered eyes hid a hint of unwillingness and viciousness.

Zhao Youlin saw his reaction, but she didn’t think much of it. She threw the document in her hand onto the table and said, “Let’s put this proposal on hold for now. We’ll discuss it when the specific budget is out.”

As Zhao Youlin spoke, she glanced at everyone present and asked, “What do you all think?”

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

Zhao Youlin smiled and said, “Since no one has any objections, let’s call it a day. Meeting adjourned.”

Zhao Youlin took the lead to stand up and walk out of the meeting room. A few directors and the department chief paused for a moment before following after Zhao Youlin.

Only Zhao Youming and Zhao Yifei were left in the meeting room. The two of them did not speak, but the air was filled with the strong smell of gunpowder. In the end, the two of them snorted at the same time and parted on bad terms once again. Zhao Youlin did not have much of a reaction when she heard the people below discussing the disagreement between Zhao Youming and Zhao Yifei. Now, she wished that Zhao Youming and Zhao Yifei could make a bigger fuss, in this way, she could find an opportunity to guide the trend of the rumors. When that time came, no one would be surprised if anyone was invited out of the company or if both of them were invited out together.

Time always flew by silently. In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Luo Weibing returned.

That afternoon, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng went to Shalnork Airport early in the morning to wait for Luo Weibing to appear. However, Luo Weibing’s flight seemed to be a little late, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng waited until 4:40 pm, but they did not see him.

It was late autumn, and the weather was somewhat cold. After waiting for a long time in the airport reception hall, Zhao Youlin felt a little cold. Mu Tingfeng quickly noticed this and asked Zhao Youlin to wait for him at the same place. He got up and walked to the nearest convenience store.
