Just after coming down the mountain, the beautiful CEO took me to register

Chapter 551 Ongoing Competition

Lin Fan looked at Jiang Li and replied:

"It's simple. We just need to make public the fact that Guirenfang and the Zhou family are colluding against us. That way, we'll have a legitimate reason. There's no need to resort to too many complicated strategies. Honesty is the most effective method."

"We must make it clear to everyone that the Zhao family is not to be easily bullied. Since they have united against us, we should first eliminate the Guirenfang and then seek an explanation from the Zhou family."

Seeing Lin Fan's firm attitude, Jiang Li nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Zhou, do you need to report the situation to Mr. Zhao?"

The financial manager asked, "This operation may involve a considerable amount of money."

"There's no need to report such a small matter. Just take action."

Lin Fan waved his hand. "You can start preparing now. I'll mention it during tomorrow's meeting, or I'll talk to her in person later."

The financial manager retreated immediately, knowing full well the special relationship between Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhao. Although no one dared to discuss it in public, various versions of the story were circulating in private, including some groundless rumors.

"Okay, let's break up the meeting."

Lin Fan stood up and said, "Keep moving forward. The best way to expand is through continuous competition.

The market will not expand for no reason. If you want to gain more market share, you must defeat your competitors and take over their resources."

"Xu Jingjing will visit the company on Thursday."

Jiang Li added: "We can take this opportunity to let employees get close to the stars as a spiritual reward."

Lin Fan nodded in agreement, imagining how this news would ignite the enthusiasm of the entire company.

After the meeting, Lin Fan decided to accompany Lin Shan today.

He had missed several appointments recently, and today he saw her eyes with a mixture of anticipation and resentment. To make up for it, he planned to watch a classic movie with her and have a conversation about art.

When talking about appreciating art together, Lin Shan's cheeks flushed and she was obviously a little nervous.

It was a completely new experience for her, and even the discussion about art made her heart beat faster.

"That's okay, we'll focus on the art itself."

Lin Fan comforted himself and her: "This is a good opportunity to improve your taste."

Lin Shan responded softly, expressing her willingness to join in this special art journey. The two agreed to spend an afternoon filled with cultural atmosphere.

Lin Shan shook her head slightly.

"Not ready yet? Then why don't you just forget it and go back by yourself?" Lin Fan suggested. He was actually afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions.

"No, I'm ready. It's just about appreciating art together." Lin Shan said courageously.

"Yes, didn't I say that last time? We are here to appreciate art, not to look at it with strange eyes." Lin Fan explained and nodded.

"Oh, okay." Lin Shan responded and took out the precious art film from the drawer.

"Where should we go to see it?" she asked.

"How about a small meeting room?"

Lin Fan thought for a moment, glanced in the direction of the CEO's office, and asked, "Is President Zhao going to look for you suddenly?"

"Probably not." Lin Shan replied, but there was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

If Mr. Zhao found out that she and Lin Fan were "appreciating art", the consequences would be disastrous - she might be fired without even getting her salary.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

Lin Fan said this, heading towards the small conference room. Lin Shan nervously followed him, holding the art film, as if she were a thief.

"Hey, don't act like we're going to the small conference room to do anything shameful."

Lin Fan stopped, a hint of helplessness in his words.

"I know, I'm just a little nervous."

Lin Shan took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and kept reminding herself that she was just appreciating art.

After the two entered the small conference room, Lin Fan locked the door.

Hearing the sound of the door locking, Lin Shan's heartbeat accelerated. She was worried about being trapped inside. How would she explain it?

“Really, we just admire the art.”

"Of course, if it's not for this, why would we be in the conference room? Why not just go to the hotel?" Lin Fan said seriously.

Lin Shan curled her lips slightly and thought to herself: Brother Fan is really straightforward.

However, if he wasn't Mr. Zhao's partner, she might really be moved. After all, who wouldn't like a guy like this?

"What device should I use to play it? A computer or a projector? If the screen is too small, the experience will not be good. It would be better to use a projector." Lin Fan asked as he sat down.

"The projector is better, the screen is bigger, and it's clearer." Lin Shan operated the equipment skillfully, after all, she was a secretary.

Soon, an art film began playing on the screen. They spoke quietly to avoid attracting attention.

"Please keep your voice down. What if someone outside hears it?" Lin Shan said nervously.

"Okay, keep quiet." Lin Fan agreed.

Lin Fan nodded slightly. This scene was indeed a little special.

"Come sit here." He pointed to the seat next to him and invited softly.

Lin Shan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll just sit here."

She was not afraid of getting close to Lin Fan, but she was worried that once she relaxed, she might feel unnecessary embarrassment.

"Okay, let's get started."

Lin Fan respected her choice, his eyes quickly scanning the screen while keeping an eye on the movements outside the conference room. He didn't want this meeting to become a hot topic in the company.

The film begins, and after the subtitles roll, the plot unfolds.

To ease the slightly strange silence, Lin Fan casually asked, "Xiao Shan, when did you become interested in this kind of movie?"

Lin Shan's face instantly turned redder: "Ah? Probably junior high school."

"Junior high school? That's really early." Lin Fan seemed a little surprised.

"Actually, it was because someone in the dormitory played it, and that's how I came across it," Lin Shan explained.

"Oh, is it Teacher Cang's work?" Lin Fan asked with a hint of curiosity.

"Don't get me wrong, this is just part of artistic exchange." Lin Shan tried to clarify.

The two continued their casual conversation, and the plot on the screen gradually reached its climax.

Lin Fan tried his best to watch with an attitude of appreciating art, and occasionally glanced at Lin Shan's straight back. It seemed that she was sitting nervously, as focused as a primary school student in class.

Lin Shan felt the gaze coming from behind and felt uneasy.

She wondered if Lin Fan was truly engrossed in the contents of the screen, or if he had other thoughts on his mind. Although the door was locked, she had no intention of escaping this place at the moment.

After a moment, Lin Fan sighed, "I have to say, this limited edition is truly extraordinary."

"Well, are all the things you brought back this time like this?" Lin Shan asked, with a hint of curiosity and anticipation in her voice.

"Well, I haven't seen the others yet. Let's do it together next time." Lin Fan replied.
