Chapter 370: Decision-making Dispute (1)

Duan Yarong had not had a smooth sail on her end. Zhao Youlin’s side was going through worse.

Even though Zhao Youlin was the general manager in Zhao Enterprise, she was still very young and she had just joined the company not long ago. Therefore, she could not make decisions on her own without approval from others. This was especially so for the impactful proposals that carried more weight.

Of course, if she was able to seek help from Zhao Shunrong or the former master, that would be the telling of another story. However, if she were to do so, Zhao Shunrong and the former master would fall under the charge of abusing their power for personal gain. At the same time, Zhao Youlin would also be treated as a rich lady from the second generation who lacked capabilities of her own and had to rely on her father and grandfather.

When Zhao Youlin entered the meeting room, the other people attending the meeting were basically all present.

Zhao Youlin shot a glance at Xiao Jingyao as she walked to the main seat. She looked at others in a domineering position. She saw some of them were probing while some looked at her with contemptuous or worrisome. She said loudly, “Today, I believe all the chief of departments have clearly been informed of the reason why we are having this meeting. Now, let us discuss the final proposal for the method of promotion for the resort. I suppose my proposal and Chief Zhao’s proposal have been sent to your mailbox, right? If you have any comments or suggestions after reading them, you could put them forward now.”

Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, the crowd’s expression changed. The next moment, a middle-aged gentleman rose and said in a flattery manner, “General Manager, regarding your proposal, I think we need to take note of one important issue.”

Zhao Youlin lifted her gaze and looked at the middle-aged man. At just a single glance, she immediately recognized him as the chief of the planning department, Fang Yu, who had been followed by Zhao Youming. The corners of her lips curved upward. She smiled faintly as she said, “What’s the problem?”

“Regarding your proposal, what is your… budget?” When the chief of the planning department met Zhao Youlin’s gaze, he was unexpectedly pounded with fear. He became a little hesitant as he spoke.

“Budget?” Zhao Youlin cocked one of her eyebrows. “If I remember correctly, the budget plan was already stated in the proposal. Chief Fang, didn’t you read it carefully?”

“Of course… Of course I did…” Fang Yu’s expression changed slightly. “Ahem, what I want to say is that the budget for your proposal is too high. The publicity cost is more than ten million dollars. If we include the previous publicity expenses before the start of construction work, the total amount is twenty million dollars. We could actually save on this cost. Comparatively, Chief Zhao’s proposal is more cost-saving and would not burden the company’s financial position.”

Right after Fang Yu finished his words, the corners of Zhao Youming’s lips slowly curled upward without anyone noticing him.

“Save on the cost?” Zhao Youlin’s long eyelashes were gradually lifted, showing a hint of seductive mockery and scorn. “Chief Fang, I’m curious. I’ve given you guys my proposal and I believe all of you have read through it. Did you guys find that the budget for the entire series from the media circulation in the beginning to celebrity contracts and poster advertising to be very high? Besides, I also wonder if you have any solutions to help me reduce the budget. After all, who wouldn’t want to save on cost? Chief Fang, if you could come up with a solution, I definitely would report it to the president and chief director so that you would be credited.”

Fang Yu was stunned. He had planned to use the high budget in Zhao Youlin’s proposal as the key to solving the matter so that he could reject her proposal while stating Zhao Youming’s proposal was better than hers. Who would have thought in the end, the statement had in turn changed into a discussion on how to improve her proposal?

Apparently, Zhao Youming had noticed this as well. The smile on his face slightly turned stiff. He discreetly shot a glance at another middle-aged man opposite him.

The man received the hint from his gaze and immediately cut into Zhao Youlin and Fang Yu’s conversation. He grinned as he said, “General Manager, I believe Chief Fang did not mean it that way.”

“Oh?” Zhao Youlin raised one of her eyebrows. “Then, what did he mean? Chief Xie, how about you help him to explain himself?”

Xie Fangtong was the second man who had spoken up. He was a middle-aged man as well as the chief of the publicity department. He was short and fat. He looked like a walking pile of meatloaves and his ugly, round face always looked eager to flatter that he often reminded her of a dog who did not bark.

As the saying went, if someone posed harm to his personal interest, he would fight back without hesitation. Likewise, this person was also one of those that had been bribed by Zhao Youming as shown in the photo.

Xie Fangtong cast a glance at Fang Yu profoundly. He grinned until his eyeballs were hardly seen. “General Manager, I believe Chief Fang meant that there were too many publicity methods in your proposal. It is after all, a publicity for a resort and so, there is no need to use so many means of publicity and in turn, there’s no need to spend too much on publicity funds. What happens if the opening of the resort doesn’t meet our expectations by that time? We could at least use the remainder of the publicity funds to make up for the losses.”

Zhao Youlin was simply amused by Xie Fangtong’s argument. They had invested hundreds of millions of dollars for the resort. In the end, they had to be prepared for the poor result in advance by saving some publicity funds in order to make up for the losses. Was this man a douche sent in from their competitors?

The fact of whether a huge investment in a project could reach breakeven or even gain profit had always been closely related to its publicity after the completion of the construction work. However, now, Xie Fangtong had put the cart before the horse by using the end profits to estimate the process. Did he have a few screws loose in his head?

Why did she not realize before that the company had so many idiots who lazed around like gluttonous sloths and also liked to drag the company down? It looked like she really had to talk to her father and grandfather about the company’s remediation.

These thoughts flashed across Zhao Youlin’s mind. The next moment, she could not help but cast a glance at Zhao Youming. She realized that after Zhao Youming finished hearing Xie Fangtong’s words, he too could not help but furrow his eyebrows. Apparently, he never expected this person to be stupid enough to say such things.

The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips curved upward. Even though Zhao Youming was quite capable, he lacked good judgment. She was eager to see how his stupid teammates would drag him down. This good show was only getting increasingly interesting.

As Zhao Youlin had expected, after hearing it all, Zhao Youming was not in a good mood. He had thought that those people who were able to occupy the position as chiefs of departments must have been brilliant men. Who would have thought…

Right after Xie Fangtong spoke, the atmosphere inside the meeting room started to turn strange. However, some people just could not figure out the situation and even intervened at such a moment.

“Indeed! That’s what I meant! General Manager, your publicity program is too much of a fuss. You appoint celebrities, advertise on television and even put up posters. All these are not only costly but are also time-consuming and laborious. Comparatively, I found that Chief Zhao’s proposal is simpler, cost-saving and very practical.”
