Chapter 40

Although Assistant Jiang appears aloof and serious, and is meticulous and fastidious about her work, she is gentle and considerate to everyone in her daily life.

When Assistant Jiang was transferred, the people who were most reluctant to leave were his colleagues in the company. It's really hard to find a direct supervisor like him!

If a completely different CEO assistant were to be transferred to the company—everyone's happy life would vanish on the spot!

Meanwhile, in his office, Zhang Chaohe was also trying to overcome his nervousness.

The new assistant is said to be Zhang Yinshan's junior from school, and is also a management talent with an excellent resume and rich work experience.

However, since Assistant Jiang had just returned to the Zhang family to report to Chairman Zhang, he accidentally took his personnel file with him, so Zhang Chaohe currently does not know this person's name or appearance.

He made a point of dressing impeccably today, with his hairstyle, attire, and demeanor all perfectly executed, striving to project himself as the epitome of a domineering CEO and intimidate his opponent with his appearance.

Cheng Jixue, whom he had called to help, was sitting on the sofa next to the desk, holding a document: "Will I just read this aloud in a moment?"

“Yes, the moment to test your acting skills has arrived!” Zhang Chaohe said confidently to Cheng Jixue, “It must be natural!”

What he was holding was actually the script for the "National Collection" program, which was scheduled to air in a couple of days.

Cheng Jixue: Never mind, as long as he's happy.

At nine o'clock sharp, Zhang Chaohe immediately smoothed his sideburns in front of the computer screen, which was in off mode, and then turned on the computer to start working on files. Sure enough, a polite and rhythmic knock sounded at the door. Zhang Chaohe quickly signaled to the extras with his eyes to begin and called out, "Come in!"

Cheng Jixue fell silent, because he realized a problem.

If we can hear the sound of permission to enter outside the office door, why can't we hear the sound of work reports?

If the performance only starts after everyone has entered, wouldn't it seem a bit too contrived?

Zhang Chaohe, however, did not pay any attention to whether Cheng Jixue was following the script or not.

His entire focus was on his future closest subordinate and most important partner—when the other person pushed open the door, the first thing that was revealed was his shiny business leather shoes, his impeccably tailored black suit, and his old blue tie…

And that overly imposing physique.

The other party had a very familiar, very sinister face.

His new assistant, in a voice as clear, deep, and firm as a broadcaster's, said, "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am your new president's assistant. My name is Chen Da."

Zhang Chaohe: Isn't this the kind older brother who shared half of the small fish and shrimp with me that day?

I just casually thought of having him work at the company; how could my dream so easily become reality!

Zhang Chaohe almost thought he was dreaming. He used the large desk as cover to pinch his thigh hard, and then his face contorted in pain for a moment.

Cheng Jixue seemed to chuckle.

On the surface, Chen Da appeared calm and composed, but inwardly he was quite nervous—why did Xiao Zhang show such an expression? Was he dissatisfied with him?

He lowered his eyes with a hint of sadness; indeed, his exaggerated physique could be intimidating.

But I can't just put my muscles in my pocket!

Zhang Chaohe instantly let down his guard—a person who can raise cute cats can't be difficult to get along with, and a person who will share half of a fish with a stranger can't be difficult to get along with either!

He stood up with great satisfaction, his voice light and cheerful: "Hello, I am Zhang Chaohe. Assistant Jiang will hand over all company affairs to you later."

Assistant Chen seemed to be experiencing a final burst of energy before death—he had been learning about this legendary General Manager Zhang online and subconsciously felt that the other party should be a kind and interesting person, so he couldn't hide his disappointment when General Manager Zhang showed that expression.

However, the moment Xiao Zhang stood up, he immediately regained his confidence as an elite assistant!

Assistant Chen quickly stepped forward and shook hands with his boss: "Assistant Jiang has already sent me some of the documents. I can assist you in starting work immediately!"

Two shy little snails touched antennae, and with that, the Gain Capital team, which would later be jokingly called the "Galactic Battleship" by netizens, finally took initial shape!

To demonstrate his thorough preparation, Assistant Chen even greeted Cheng Jixue, saying, "Hello Mr. Cheng, I will be taking over Vice President Jiang's work from now on. Thank you for your cooperation."

Cheng Jixue smiled warmly: "Hello, I hope you will continue to help me in the future."

Since the meeting went so smoothly, there was obviously no need for him to act as an extra and recite lines anymore. Cheng Jixue stood up, intending to say goodbye to Zhang Chaohe and then go back to work on the script.

However, just as he took a step toward Zhang Chaohe, Assistant Chen immediately leaped forward in mid-air!

Zhang Chaohe couldn't help but step back slightly—after all, the other person was extremely imposing in terms of physique, standing at 1.9 meters tall with a muscular build; one could easily believe he was Mr. Zhang's personal bodyguard.

Assistant Chen stood firmly between the two like a reassuring iron tower: "Please keep a distance of more than five meters from General Manager Zhang!"

Cheng Jixue: ...

He looked up at the big guy, and although the scene was very awkward, his voice remained soft and gentle: "Why?"

Is this space reserved for me alone, or do all the other girls have it?

“This was specifically instructed to me by Assistant Jiang,” Assistant Chen replied matter-of-factly. “She said that you and General Manager Zhang should maintain a safe social distance of five meters.”

Please maintain social distancing.

Cheng Jixue: Zhang Chaohe: "Hahaha!!"

Just as Zhang Chaohe had predicted, Assistant Chen, though gentle in nature, handled official business in an orderly manner and immediately won the favor of all his colleagues in the secretariat!

Especially after a colleague inadvertently noticed that his computer screensaver was an adorable pointed Ragdoll cat, Assistant Chen immediately received strong support from all the female colleagues in the company!

Assistant Chen was flattered and surprised to have been inexplicably integrated into the company, but he still couldn't figure it out.

After Jiang Wei and Assistant Chen finished handing over their work, they immediately moved to the Tongsheng Hengfeng office building to start working. Zhang Chaohe also took some time to visit once. Although Tongsheng Hengfeng had a streamlined staff, it already seemed to be taking shape.

Jiang Wei was extremely busy, with various reports, letters of intent, and financing applications flying all over the table. She poured Zhang Chaohe a glass of hot milk and told him to take a look around as he pleased before continuing with her official duties.

The real boss, Zhang Chaohe: I squeezed in, but I'm still an outsider.

Seeing everyone working hard for money, Zhang Chaohe was in a great mood. After agreeing on a specific time to visit Jiang Wei to discuss the investment in "The City of Wanderers", he prepared to leave. Jiang Wei personally saw him off downstairs and put him in his car before going back to continue working.

However, neither of them expected that the scene of Jiang Wei seeing Zhang Chaohe off would be captured by chance—the other party is a minor internet celebrity, and today he saw a McLaren Senna in the parking space downstairs when he came out of his studio.

It's a limited-edition custom color, the robin's egg blue, which is available in no more than three units nationwide!

He immediately observed the car; no one was inside or nearby. The timing was perfect, so he quickly called his assistant to film several short video clips. However, they hadn't walked far after finishing work when they saw the car owner appear beside the car, accompanied by a beautiful woman?

The internet celebrity's gossip instincts were immediately piqued—he hid behind a tree, turned on his phone camera, and zoomed in to see a very familiar face.

The usually aloof and stern CEO, Mr. Zhang, was unusually smiling as he waved goodbye to the beautiful woman!

He was so excited that he immediately logged into his Vision account—since the car owner was Mr. Zhang, the footage he had just shot of "buying a McLaren for himself at the age of 24 through hard work" definitely couldn't be used anymore... but he could still use other ways to ride the wave of popularity!

@白白白小兔子樱桃: Look who I ran into downstairs at the company! Boss Zhang is so handsome, and the McLaren is so cool qaq [video];

The video was quickly recommended to the "Local Views" section, and its popularity soared when Little Rabbit Cherry's fans saw his new post!

Aside from occasionally checking out Shiyue when gathering intelligence, Zhang Chaohe rarely watched short videos, so he had no idea that he and his car had inexplicably become a trending topic.

It wasn't until he was waiting at a red light that he accidentally discovered the man in the car next to him was secretly taking pictures of him.

Zhang Chaohe: He just thought it was because the color of the car was too eye-catching today—heaven knows, he didn't ask his driver to pick him up today, so he just randomly picked up a key from the drawer where he kept his car keys when he left for work in the morning.

However, when the parking lot was unlocked, everyone was stunned by the enthusiastic response from the McLaren. It seemed even more flashy than the previous electric blue supercar...

Forget it, I'll just leave it at that. If I have a car while I'm alive, why not drive it? Am I supposed to wait until I die to drive a beat-up cardboard car underground?

Thanks to the eye-catching McLaren he owned, Mr. Zhang's entire journey was broadcast live, leaving him with absolutely no privacy. Netizens even dug up his travel route!

Friends, I was incredibly lucky to see a large, single-level apartment building running on the ground today (praying)

[As expected of Zhang Baiwan! This car is so cool!]

The thought of a goose sitting in the passenger seat of a McLaren, enjoying the pampering of CEO Zhang, brings tears to my eyes. I won't say who is inferior to a goose.

[Humans are inferior to geese +1]

...

Meanwhile, the identity of the stunningly beautiful woman who saw him off at the office building was being wildly speculated about!

However, there is a very big problem. As the saying goes, "There are thousands of idiots, and half of them are from Shiyue." As a fast-paced, high-traffic short video platform, Shiyue inevitably has the problem of a mixed bag of users.

Aside from some well-intentioned curiosity, some very unpleasant and malicious speculations were also pushed to the top.

For example: 【She's beautiful and has a great figure; she looks like she knows how to please the boss (lecherous) (lecherous)】

This comment was surprisingly pushed to the second spot on the list of most popular comments.

The filthy gaze and the envy towards unattainable outstanding women have attracted a large number of psychologically twisted maggots to flood this comment, constantly increasing its popularity.

Even though passersby who disliked them kept trying to refute them, they were quickly suffocated by the foul language the passersby thought was clever and witty, and they all withdrew from the competition.

The second most popular comment was even more arrogant. Even after someone pointed out that this person was the president's special assistant, he still relied on the fact that no one could come through the internet to beat him up and kept making a scene.

Isn't this the proper posture for a woman?

[Haha, what's so hard about getting to this position? I could do it too.]

To be honest, it's really just average!

I wouldn't even take it if it were free!

However, the internet is not a lawless place. While he was spewing nonsense, one of Jiasheng's employees happened to come across the video. She was originally staring at her phone with a silly smile when she suddenly saw a comment in the top comments section that was spewing feces everywhere and it bothered her.

She sneered, picked up her phone, and replied, "While some people are still spouting nonsense online, others have already received a year-end bonus of 5% equity. You're not going to be so jealous, are you?"

[Am I jealous? What are they after if not money? I don't care!]

The girl flew into a rage, and from secretly slacking off to openly and passionately hurling insults at him on her phone, it only took a few minutes. The second-ranked player tried to challenge her but was defeated. The girl had no sportsmanship; she copied a book of insults from the internet and unleashed a high-intensity, non-stop barrage of insults, forcing her opponent to retreat in defeat!

The second-ranked person was so frustrated by the insults that he secretly blocked her.

Just as she was cursing inwardly and preparing to switch to a different account to continue her tirade, she suddenly heard a magnetic, but slightly sinister, voice behind her: "What are you doing?"

The young girl slammed her phone down, turned around abruptly, and discovered it was Assistant Chen!

However, she immediately realized what was happening and quickly showed it to Assistant Chen: "Look at this idiot, he actually openly slandered Assistant Jiang, does he really think the internet is a lawless place?"

"I've already taken screenshots of his slanderous remarks about Assistant Jiang," the girl said angrily. "Does he have a dog's mouth?"

Ever since Boss Zhang used the iron fist of the law to send Du Ze and Xu Shen back to their happy hometown, everyone at Jiasheng has been very keen to use legal weapons to take down the other party, and they are even used to preserving evidence first, regardless of whether there is a reason or not.

Although Assistant Chen had little contact with Assistant Jiang, he was naturally very righteous and had a pretty good impression of Assistant Jiang. When he saw his foul language, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Combined with his appearance and demeanor, he appeared even more terrifying, exuding the aura of "You're doomed."

Assistant Chen pondered for a moment: "Screenshots like this have no legal effect and cannot be used as evidence. They need to be notarized before they can be recognized as electronic evidence."

"I need to ask for leave!" the girl said firmly. "It might not be useful, but what if it comes in handy?"

“Come with me,” Assistant Chen suddenly said.

What happened next was completely unexpected—Assistant Chen took her to the recording studio downstairs. Just as she was wondering about Assistant Chen's intentions, Li Yimao, who was working in the recording studio, suddenly looked up with dark circles under his eyes!
