Chapter 3957 - 3945: Prestige
Chapter 3957: Chapter 3945: Prestige
When these words were said, everyone was taken aback.
Before the interview, they had thoroughly prepared for the Lingyun Group.
They also knew who Tian Yan was, responsible for all of Lingyun Group’s investment business, firmly occupying the third highest position in the group.
But no one expected that after Zhang He went out, he actually brought back the Vice President!
What kind of maneuver is this?
It’s baffling.
Tian Yan extended her hand politely to shake hands with a few people.
"Director Qi is in a meeting and may not have time for the interview, President He is on a business trip and not in the company, so I’ll substitute for him," Tian Yan said:
"But I have to go out later, probably I can give you half an hour? If time is not enough, we can schedule another time."
Everyone was stunned!
Everyone glanced at each other, not understanding what was going on.
Previously, the talk was about not being able to interview the group’s senior leadership, but unexpectedly, the Vice President came over after going out and agreed to the interview!
Judging by her stance, it seemed if Qi Xianzhao wasn’t in a meeting, he could also have come for the interview!
"Sure sure, half an hour is enough," Yue Sijing said hastily.
"Let’s start now."
"Great great."
With time tight and tasks heavy, there was no time to think any further, so the interview started immediately.
Just like that, following the previous interview plan, Yue Sijing conducted the interview with Tian Yan, everything proceeded smoothly.
The interview went on for about twenty minutes and was nearing its end.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and to everyone’s surprise, the person standing at the door was Qi Xianzhao.
"Director Qi, why are you here?" Tian Yan asked casually.
"I heard the journalists from the TV station arrived, and I came to check it out."
"Is the meeting over?"
"Almost done, the remaining parts can be handled by the president’s office people, so I came out early."
"Perfect, I have something to attend to, I’ll leave the interview to you."
"Okay."
Qi Xianzhao’s appearance left Yue Sijing and others even more bewildered.
This is a CEO-level figure!
Even official leaders have a hard time meeting him, and he ended his meeting early to participate in the interview.
Why is it like this?
"Dear journalists, I have some matters to attend to, I’ll be leaving first," Tian Yan smiled and greeted.
"Alright alright, I’ll see you off," Yue Sijing stood and said.
"No need to see me off, anything you want to ask, you can chat with Director Qi."
"Thank you Director Qi, thank you President Tian."
"No worries."
With a brief exchange, Tian Yan left, and Qi Xianzhao took over the rest of the interview.
As she was leaving, Tian Yan whispered a few words into Zhang He’s ear, the voice was too low to hear, but Zhang He nodded frequently.
The subsequent interview with Qi Xianzhao lasted only a dozen minutes, because most of the questions had already been asked to Tian Yan.
"Dear journalists, I’ll have someone take you to tour the Research Institute."
"We can still go to the Research Institute?"
"Of course."
Qi Xianzhao made a gesture of invitation, then called for people from the president’s office, arranged for them to accompany Yue Sijing and others to the Research Institute for an interview.
"By the way, in a few days, there’s an economic forum meeting happening in Zhong Hai, are you planning to attend?" Qi Xianzhao asked as they were leaving.
"Yes, we are considering it," Yue Sijing nodded.
"Have you secured attendee slots?"
"Not yet."
"Let’s do this, leave a contact number with my secretary, we’ll get you some attendee slots."
"Is, is that really possible?" Yue Sijing said in surprise.
"Of course, it’s not a big deal, just a matter of saying a word."
"Thank you so much, Director Qi."
"It’s nothing, don’t mention it," Qi Xianzhao smiled and said, "When you go to the Research Institute later, anything you need, just talk to my secretary, he will fully cooperate with you."
"Thank you, Director Qi, for providing us with such great convenience, we don’t even know how to express our gratitude."
"Don’t be too polite, your interview is also boosting our visibility, it’s only right for us to cooperate."
After a few more pleasantries, Yue Sijing and others left for the Longxin Research Institute.
Thus, the entire afternoon was spent in interviews, until after 5 pm.
Once they finished all interviews, the group returned to the car in silence.
Everyone felt the afternoon’s events were like a dream, utterly surreal.
First, the Vice President Tian Yan accepted the interview, then CEO Qi Xianzhao ended his meeting early for an interview, and later arranged for them to visit their Research Institute, even promising them economic forum slots!
Expecting such things was beyond them when they were coming.
"Jingjing, this thing is so weird."
"I find it odd too, do you remember, when I talked about this with Zhang He, he categorically refused, I was so embarrassed I wished I could disappear at the time, but after I mentioned Lin Yi’s name, Zhang He suddenly cooperated."
"It does seem so!"
Now Wang Lu and the others also realized, Zhang He’s attitude indeed changed after Lin Yi’s name was mentioned.
"Is it possible he didn’t intend to suppress you, but genuinely has that kind of influence?"
"Maybe it is so, we were being petty-minded, imagining negative scenarios."
Recalling the scene Lin Yi talked about this matter, Yue Sijing said:
"This seemed like a normal work arrangement, others didn’t think too much, it was all our imaginations."
"But the issue is, the place we came to is the renowned Lingyun Group, he’s just a small producer, how can he have such influence?"
"I think you should make a call to find out," Yue Sijing looked at Wang Lu and said.
"Make a call?"
"Call Zhang He, ask what’s going on, he surely knows."
"You’re right!"
Wang Lu took out her phone, called Zhang He, and turned on the speaker.
"Uncle Zhang, are you busy?"
"Not busy, what’s up," Zhang He said cheerfully.
"I’m wondering, does our group’s leaders know the TV station’s Principal Lin?"
"Our President Tian knows him, previously a program from the TV station was sponsored by President Tian, and the liaison person was your Principal Lin, so they’ve become acquainted over time."
"Oh, that’s how it is, thank you Uncle Zhang."
"It’s nothing, no need to thank."
Zhang He’s response cleared up the doubts in everyone’s minds.
Lin Yi knows Tian Yan, it naturally makes sense.
"Didn’t expect your Principal is quite impressive, I suggest we find a place to celebrate, Jingjing, you’re the leader, you can’t be stingy."
