Chapter 25 Preliminary Plan
Following her meeting with Li Gang, Lin Chuyue quickly arranged a meeting with another high-ranking executive—Zhou Xiaofeng, the Human Resources Manager. Zhou Xiaofeng had extensive connections within the company and was responsible for the appointment and allocation of all employees. Shen Fang had used him to place many of her cronies into the company and even gained control of several key positions in the Human Resources Department through him.
Zhou Xiaofeng has always been cautious and discreet. Lin Chuyue had already noticed that Zhou Xiaofeng was very sensitive to the power structure within the company, and Shen Fang's downfall would inevitably cause him unease about the future.
She chose to meet him at a high-end coffee shop near the company. Zhou Xiaofeng arrived as agreed, dressed in a well-fitting suit, with a cold expression and sharp eyes.
"Miss Lin, what brings you here today?" Zhou Xiaofeng asked succinctly, his eyes glancing around occasionally.
"Manager Zhou, thank you for taking the time. Today I'd like to discuss the company's future plans with you." Lin Chuyue didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Future plans?" Zhou Xiaofeng raised an eyebrow. "What does that have to do with me?"
Lin Chuyue smiled slightly, "I know that you have a lot of influence within the company. If the company decides to make adjustments to Shen Fang, the human resources department will undergo a series of changes in the future, and I believe you will be one of the key figures."
Zhou Xiaofeng didn't seem surprised. Instead, he smiled and said, "You seem to know very well. My relationship with Shen Fang has always been delicate. If you can provide some guarantees for me in the upcoming board vote, I can consider supporting you."
Lin Chuyue nodded. "I completely understand your concerns, Manager Zhou. In fact, I brought some information today regarding Shen Fang's inappropriate behavior in personnel transfers. I believe this information will make you understand that supporting me is the wisest choice."
Zhou Xiaofeng picked up the documents on the table, looked at them, and his expression gradually became serious. "These... are very interesting. If they are true, supporting you might actually be a better choice."
Lin Chuyue chuckled softly, "I will ensure that your interests are not harmed. Trust me, support me, and you will have more opportunities."
Although her contacts with Li Gang and Zhou Xiaofeng haven't yielded any clear conclusions yet, Lin Chuyue's plan is beginning to show results. She knows that as long as she continues to subtly undermine Shen Fang's supporters through meticulous contact, she can succeed.
However, Shen Fang will certainly not give up easily during this month, and she herself must make full preparations to face the upcoming more intense confrontation.
In the days to come, Lin Chuyue will continue to reach out to more high-level executives through various means to gain their support. She knows that the board's decisions are far more complex and convoluted than she has anticipated, but she has no way out.
Every moment of contact was a step closer to victory for her.
When Shen Fang learned of her suspension from the board of directors, she maintained her usual gentle smile, as if it had little impact on her. However, her heart was in turmoil, burning with rage. The board's decision was undoubtedly an insult to her, but Shen Fang didn't let her anger show. She knew that in this situation, she had to remain calm and retaliate with more sophisticated methods.
Suspension is not a failure, but an opportunity.
Shen Fang remained calm and collected; she had long anticipated this day. Regardless of the board's decision, her goal was never a one-month suspension, but a long-term reinstatement, and to make everyone realize that Shen Fang was the unshakeable core of the company.
During her month-long suspension, Shen Fang didn't rush to retaliate. Instead, she quietly began a series of plans. She knew that Lin Chuyue was now acting as her replacement, taking over her position, but for Shen Fang, this was actually a better opportunity. She needed to wage a silent game under Lin Chuyue's nose, using her methods to seize control of the company's future.
