After that, Mr. Xu no longer brought up the job offer to Fade again. After they finished dinner, Mr. Xu took the initiative to send Fade to the hotel entrance. Mr. Xu handed a business card over and said, "Chen, keep this business card. If you need anything, you can always call the number on it."
Fade looked at the business card. It was not the business card that Harry gave him previously, but rather a more formal and exquisite business card. The name "Nicholas Xu" was printed on it, followed by various titles and positions held below. The most striking one was the position of the person as the chairman of Xu Enterprises Holdings.
"This is-" Fade was a little confused.
Mr. Xu explained, "Nicholas Xu is my son. I thought that it would be easier for him to help you with anything instead of me. So I asked him for his business card."
Fade finally understood. It turned out that Harry was a wealthy man because his son is the chairman of Xu Enterprises Holdings. It was no wonder that Harry could treat him to a dinner at the Grand Duke Hotel and gave him such grand treatment.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xu. If you feel uncomfortable, contact me at any time." After putting away the business card, Fade expressed his gratitude before leaving the hotel.
The next morning, Quin called Fade to the president's office.
"Dear, what's the matter?" The apology and reconciliation the night before yesterday made their relationship became much more harmonious. Fade could now occasionally joke around with Quin.
Quin glared at Fade with her beautiful eyes, but she did not scold him like she did before. Instead, Quin handed him a document and said, "Take a look at this."
"This is —" Fade took the document and browsed through it. After reading through the content, Fade was shocked. "Dear, did you hand me the wrong document? Why would you show me this? This is a briefing book for the company meeting."
"I didn't make a mistake. I want you to see this. This will be used in the meeting later," Quin said.
This time, Fade was dumbfounded, "Ah, there's a meeting? What's the purpose of the meeting? Besides, even if there's a meeting, I don't need to be there, do I?"
Quin said, "If s a meeting to discuss the company's vendors. I want you to be there." "Dear, you are definitely joking. It's fine for me to stay in the medical department, but I don't know anything about this!" Fade suddenly felt a headache. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Quin said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand now. Just look at it and learn slowly."
"But, this —" Fade did not understand why should he be involved in these professional matters.
Quin looked into Fade's eyes and said in a low voice, "Now, you are my husband. If you continue to be a small doctor in the company, won't others find it strange?"
Listening to Quin, Fade finally understood the purpose behind her action, "Is it still about your family forcing you into a marriage?"
"Well, that's indeed part of the reason," Quin said.
Fade picked up the document and said seriously, "In that case, I will study hard."
In the afternoon, at the conference room, almost all the executives of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc had arrived, ready for the meeting regarding the company vendors.
The leaders, who were in charge of managing and taking care of the materials for the meeting, are now carrying out the final verifications and reviews as well as making final preparations for the upcoming meeting.
Everyone has arrived. As the president' s secretary, Donald was to announce the beginning of the meeting.
However, Quin stopped him. "Wait a minute, there is another person."
"Another one?" Donald glanced around and did not find anyone who had not arrived. Donald could not help but look at Quin with a puzzled look.
Quin did not explain further but chose to look over at the door of the conference room.
With rushed footsteps, Fade appeared, "I'm sorry. There was a staff who was not feeling well just now and I got delayed for a small while. I'm not late, am I?"
"Just in time, you can take your seat!", Quin greeted Fade.
Fade came in and sat directly on the left side of Quin without any hesitation.
By now, everybody was looking at him, especially Donald, who looked even more puzzled.
"President Lin, what, what's going on? Why did he come to attend such an important meeting? This Donald was very puzzled and even glared at Fade with anger.
However, Quin just replied coldly, "I was the one who invited him. Well, let's start the meeting!"
Since the president had already said so, the other executive could only put away their doubt and start the meeting.
The purpose of this meeting was mainly to discuss the candidates for the company vendor of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc next year.
As a cosmetics company, the suppliers engaged were very important. If a suitable supplier was chosen, it would guarantee the quality and output of their products and enhance the competency of their company in the market. It was safe to say the suppliers chosen would greatly affect the development of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc next year.
The meeting started with the introduction of specific information about each supplier, including their goods, the quality of the products, the amount they can supply, the price of their products, the cash flow, and so on.
After introducing the specific situations of more than a dozen different suppliers, the following was the most crucial part of the meeting. The executives would discuss and decide on which and how many suppliers to be chosen for negotiation and cooperation.
After all, every supplier had its own strengths and weaknesses, there was no perfect choice. Therefore, under these circumstances, they must choose the suppliers who could bring the most benefit to the company.
After understanding the situation of the suppliers, they had now arrived at the highlight of the meeting. The leaders would voice their opinions and at the same time, explaining their choices.
The leaders from different departments stood up one by one and began to give their own opinions.
Quin listened seriously. Sometimes, Quin would jot down some information on her notebook; other times she was seen to be in deep thoughts, looking very serious.
As for Fade, after listening to everyone, he felt that almost everyone was right. Every supplier had its own strengths and weaknesses. Anyway, Fade could not differentiate which was good and which
was not.
However, Fade found a problem.
On the list, there were twelve suppliers. Eleven of them had been mentioned, but no one mentioned "Xu Chemicals", which was at number 8. From the introductory information Fade had read previously, Xu Chemicals'factory was large in size and the quality of the product was very good. It should be a good choice.
With this thought, Fade could not keep himself from asking Quin, "Why don't you choose Xu Chemicals? I think their conditions are pretty good?"
Initially, Fade intended to just bring this matter up to Quin casually.
However, silence suddenly landed in the conference room, causing everyone to hear him. For a moment, everyone looked over at Fade.
