Chapter 1073 Changes in the Company

Shi Lei returned to Wudong and went straight to Qixuan after leaving the high-speed rail station.

Qixuan today is of course not in the office building it used to be in. Instead, it has upgraded its office building to a new one near the high-speed rail station, renting out three floors as the office space for Qixuan's headquarters.

After Shi Lei came out of the high-speed rail station, he walked for only ten minutes and arrived at the office building of Qixuan.

The property management of the new office location is very responsible. They even set up a card-swipe entry rule in the lobby on the first floor. All people entering the building must have an access card to enter.

Shi Lei walked to one of the security guards and was about to ask how to get in. The security guard was stunned when he saw him, and then asked in a low voice: "Are you Mr. Shi Lei?"

Shi Lei was slightly surprised and nodded: "Do you know me?"

"I ride your Qixuan bicycle every day, and you are the national husband, how can I not know you?"

Shi Lei smiled and shook his head, thinking that he really had to hide as soon as possible, and he couldn't let the title of national husband continue like this.

He smiled and said, "Thank you for your trust in our company's products, but I want to know how I can get up there? Should we ask our employees to pick me up?"

The security guard immediately took out his access card and said, "Others will definitely need someone to pick him up, but you don't need to. Who in this building doesn't know you? I'll swipe your card for you, and you can go in directly. Qixuan is on the 7th, 8th, and 9th floors."

Shi Lei didn't expect that he could already scan his face. He smiled and said, "Thank you very much. Qixuan will have a free ride soon. Remember to claim the discount at that time."

The security guard smiled and said, "It's not much money, one dollar for one ride. I spend two dollars a day, and I exercise and save on bus fare."

Shi Lei waved his hand: "Thank you." Then he walked into the elevator.

Shi Qiang told him that the executives' offices were all on the ninth floor, so Shi Lei naturally went straight to the ninth floor.

Because the ninth floor is purely the executives' office area, the access control at the door is naturally more stringent.

Shi Lei arrived at the door and pressed the doorbell. The girl at the front desk who was in charge of the access control looked up from behind the counter and was immediately excited when she saw Shi Lei.

She ran to open the door for Shi Lei, and the girl was so excited that she couldn't speak a complete sentence.

"Mr. Shi... you're here?"

Shi Lei smiled and said, "What's the matter? I'm a little uncomfortable seeing a living person today?"

The girl lowered her head embarrassedly, but her face was full of smiles.

"Thank you, where is Shi Qiang's office?"

"I'll take you there." The girl led Shi Lei diligently and soon arrived at the door of Shi Qiang's office.

After knocking on the door gently, the girl pushed it open. The person inside looked up and asked, "What are you doing in the general manager's office?" The voice was quite majestic.

The girl hurriedly explained: "Boss Shi is here, I brought him here."

The voice inside was even more unhappy: "Boss Shi has arrived a long time ago..." Suddenly, as if remembering something, he immediately lowered his voice and said: "Is it that Boss Shi?"

Without waiting for the girl to answer, the owner of the voice stood up and walked to the door in two steps. Sure enough, he saw Shi Lei standing outside the door.

"Boss Shi, you are here, why didn't you tell me in advance, I can arrange someone to pick you up." As if realizing that Shi Lei didn't know him, he said again: "I am the assistant of Boss Shi Qiang, my name is Ai Yige."

Shi Lei nodded and said: "Ask clearly before scolding your subordinates. Shi Qiang is in the office, right?"

Ai Yige was quite embarrassed and whispered: "I'm sorry, Boss Shi. Boss Shi is in the office." After saying that, he felt a little confused and couldn't help feeling uneasy.

Shi Lei turned around and smiled at the girl at the front desk, saying, "It's okay, thank you for leading the way, go back to your post."

The girl ran away like a fly, and Ai Yige bent down and let Shi Lei in. He took the initiative to run to the door of the inner room, knocked on the door, and shouted loudly, "Mr. Shi, Chairman Shi Lei is here."

Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go and do your work, I'll go in by myself." After that, he walked past Ai Yige and opened the door of Shi Qiang's office.

Shi Qiang had also walked to the door and met Shi Lei. By the way, he said to Ai Yige, "Xiao Ai, Mr. Shi and I have something to talk about. You can't stop us from doing anything."

Ai Yige quickly agreed, and Shi Qiang closed the door.

"What would you like to drink?" Shi Qiang asked.

Shi Lei said, "Whatever, don't be so formalistic." After that, he walked to the guest sofa opposite the desk and sat down.

Shi Qiang poured a cup of water for Shi Lei, put it in front of him, and sat next to him.

"This morning, I have released the C round financing plan. All calls are blocked at the moment. But Xiao Ai just told me that two companies have already reported a valuation of 15 billion. I estimate that with a little stretch, 16 billion will definitely be able to be broken. This way, it's not too far off."

Shi Lei nodded and said, "I promised Wei Qing about the C round. I guess the Wei family is also making active preparations now. When the time comes, you summarize the offers from the venture capital circle and match the highest one to the Wei family. If they can take more than half, then give them the lead investment rights. I ask you to be clear that these ten points must be firmly controlled in our hands."

Shi Qiang also nodded and asked in a low voice: "What's the situation with Xu Zhida? Is it Dong Chiqing...?"

Shi Lei shook his head and said: "Dong Chiqing is fine. This decision should be Big Mamba's idea. He is in a bad mood during this time. He may also be resentful towards Dong Chiqing and some of my decisions. Also, Dong Chiqing and I Maybe there was some lack of consideration in some aspects, and I always felt that Big Mamba was one of my own, so I didn't take care of his emotions. Now, these emotions have accumulated and problems have arisen. But you don't have to worry, as long as the C round is completed. With ten points under our control, we won’t be afraid of problems on the Big Mamba side.”

Then, Shi Lei roughly told Shi Qiang the contents of his phone call with Dong Chiqing and Xu Zhida last night. Of course, some unnecessary things have been omitted, which just means that he has complete trust in Dong Chiqing and is willing to believe that the problem lies with Xu Zhida.

After hearing this, Shi Qiang nodded and said: "It seems that there should be nothing wrong with Dong Chiqing. But Xu Zhida, this guy actually said that I am authoritarian? Yes, my work style is a bit perfectionistic, but when it comes to authoritarianism, I just want to know who in the company would have such an idea. After Xu Zhida went to the UK, the highest-ranking person in Qixuan was Zhao Di. Mr. Shi, please ask Zhao Di whether I am authoritative..."

Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "I never believed what he said. What he said confirmed my bad suspicions. However, these are not important. Anyway, after the C round, control will be completely returned to No matter what mood Big Mamba has on hand, it should not be out of control. Moreover, there is Dong Chiqing. This matter is going according to Big Mamba's wishes, and the next work will be left to Dong Chiqing. I believe he will take care of Big Mamba. I’m here today and I have another thing to talk to you about.”

Shi Qiang immediately became excited. He adjusted his sitting posture and said, "Young Master Shi, please tell me!"
