Chapter 156 The Road to Listing
Hu Fangfang smiled and said, "I will come here often in the future and spend more time with Sister Lanlan!"

"You? Forget it!"

Lan Lan shook her head and said, "Sis is not here, and you are now in charge of Qianqiu Group on her behalf. The group has many affairs to deal with, so how can you spare time to accompany me!"

Hu Fangfang heard this and smiled: "I will try my best to make time, maybe once a week..."

"Haha! You! Stop teasing me!"

After the two exchanged greetings for a while, Lanlan took a navel orange from the fruit plate and handed it to Fangfang.

The navel orange had already been cut into four pieces with a fruit knife, and it looked fresh and juicy.

"Here, have some of this? Auntie Chen bought it this morning. I heard it's very sweet!"

Hu Fangfang took it, tasted a petal, nodded and praised: "It's really sweet!"

"Well, it tastes good!"

Lan Lan suddenly sighed: "It would be great if Big Sister and Xiao Jing were here! Big Sister loves to eat this the most! Oh, I wonder what's happening to them!"

Fangfang's expression darkened when she heard that.

After His Highness and Xiaojing left, there has been no news since then, and it has been more than a year now.

"Yes, His Highness said that they would be back in half a month at the shortest and a month at the longest. But...if the life tokens they kept were not broken, I would have thought they were dead." Fangfang said worriedly.

More than a month after Yinyue and Xiaojing left, Lanlan and Hu Fangfang discussed going to the desert to find the secret realm of the elves.

However, the desert is vast, and there is no specific location, nor any relevant elven tokens in hand, so I guess I would get nothing in the end if I went there.

The two speculated that Yin Yue and Xiao Jing had been stranded for a long time and might have been restrained by something in the secret realm, or perhaps some opportunity had prevented them from returning for the time being.

In this situation, it seems they can only rely on themselves.

"I have confidence in my elder sister. They will be fine!" Lan Lan was silent for a while, then said, "Fang Fang, you are in charge of Qianqiu Group. Thank you for your hard work. I still say the same thing. If there is anything you need my help with, just let me know!"

"Sister Lanlan, thank you for your concern. Fangfang recognizes His Highness as her master. Whatever His Highness asks of me is my responsibility." Hu Fangfang said, "I dare not bother Sister Lanlan with ordinary matters. However, I am here this time because I do have an extremely important matter that I want to hear your opinion on."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"Sister Lanlan, you know: at the end of last year, the financial crisis that started in the United States swept the world, and we in China were also affected. Although Qianqiu Group is strong, due to the overall economic downturn, cash flow is also a bit tight..."

Hearing this, Lan Lan smiled and said, "Perhaps someone in the group has proposed that Qianqiu go public again?"

Hu Fangfang was startled and said in surprise: "Sister is very smart. I can't hide anything from you. You can guess it right at once."

"In fact, Her Highness mentioned this to me three years ago." Lan Lan said, "And she had already made a plan, but she gave up later. However, although it was not listed, it later began to use the form of company equity within the group to motivate employees."

"Yes, there is indeed a ready-made listing plan in the drawer of His Highness' office!" Fangfang asked puzzledly, "But His Highness gave up later, why?"

"In my opinion, there are two reasons for going public: one is for fame, and the other is for profit. Qianqiu Group has long been famous, and going public is just the icing on the cake. As for profit, the group has completed several large projects in recent years, with rich returns and strong financial resources. It can solve the funding problem by itself, and there is no need to solve it through financing..."

"In fact, my eldest sister doesn't care how much money she can make from the listing. Instead, she is worried that after the company goes public, a large number of billionaires will be created!"

"Going public will make you rich, this is inevitable. Is there any problem with this?" "Money is the root of all evil. When you have money, your fighting spirit will weaken, which is not a good thing for the management and development of the company."

"Well, it is understandable that Your Highness would have such considerations. However, I think that if employees could have a reasonable share, this situation would not have occurred. After all, we all prosper together and we all suffer together."

"I think so too." Lan Lan nodded and smiled, "In fact, there is another reason. Once the company goes public, the group will have more information to disclose. You know, with my eldest sister's temper, she doesn't like to be supervised too much..."

"I understand." Fangfang thought for a moment and then said, "Then let's follow your Highness's wishes and not list it!"

Lan Lan shook her head and said firmly: "No. List it!"

"Well, Sister Lanlan, didn't you just say that Her Highness..." Hu Fangfang was completely confused and didn't know what to say.

Lan Lan looked at Hu Fangfang who was a little dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "I said before that Your Highness disagrees. But now the world has changed, the situation is different, and we naturally cannot stick to the old rules. Now is the Internet information age, and there are countless companies born or died every day in the world. After all, Qianqiu Group is valued by my eldest sister, so you have to do your best to maintain or promote the development of the company."

She raised her glass and took a sip of freshly squeezed juice, then continued, "In theory, we ascetics don't focus on external things, and we don't consider how much profit we make, but I think that after the eldest sister returns, she will definitely hope to see a thriving company. Since she trusts you, as long as it is beneficial to the development of the company, you can do it boldly. I support you, and naturally I believe in your ability!"

Hu Fangfang took a deep breath and said with emotion: "Thank you Sister Lanlan for your trust!"

"Well, do you have any other questions?" Lan Lan asked.

Hu Fangfang thought for a moment and said, "No! This is the most difficult decision for me right now!"

"Oh, how's Jiang He?" Lan Lan asked casually, but there was a smile in her eyes.

Hu Fangfang was startled when she heard this, and said with a wry smile: "He is still the same!"

I remember when she first discussed the company's problems with Lan Lan, she mentioned Crossing the River to Lan Lan -

After Yin Yue left, Hu Fangfang replaced Bai Zixuan and became the chairman of Qianqiu Group. In order to get the recognition of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Hu Fangfang worked meticulously, and she put almost all her energy into the management of the company, and naturally did not consider personal emotional factors too much.

Although he was rejected many times by Bai Zixuan, the incarnation of Silver Moon, Jiang He did not give up his pursuit and still invited Bai Zixuan out many times in the name of work.

He didn't know that Bai Zixuan had changed into a different person. Hu Fangfang saw Jiang He inviting her to discuss official business, but she didn't know what was going on, so she agreed to Jiang He's request.

After a few rounds of this, Jiang He was overjoyed, and the content of his invitations changed from work to love, and his offensive became more intense. The whole company began to spread the news of their affair.

This situation made Hu Fangfang, who was almost clueless, at a loss as to what to do, because Jiang He was someone close to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Although Hu Fangfang has never been in love, as long as she is not a fool, she can naturally understand Jiang He's thoughts.

However, she was only the temporary acting chairman, and she would have to hand over everything after His Highness returned. No matter what, she did not dare to act on her own.

So, she had no choice but to ask Sun Lanlan for advice.

After all, there is no one better than her.

After hearing this, Sun Lanlan couldn't help laughing.

Then she looked at Hu Fangfang, who was always known for her intelligence but now frowned and was at a loss, and laughed a few more times.

Finally, she gave Hu Fangfang the secret of the eight characters: sometimes far, sometimes near, sometimes close, sometimes distant!
