CHAPTER 128

"Sometimes if I am asked a question that I have a clue of, I would answer smartly," he said.

"What if you do not know? How will you give an answer then?" Bai Renxiang asked curiously.

"Then I answer the question with a question of my own and then answer my question making sure that it would relate to the one they asked so that they would understand and not see you as a fool," he explained leaving Bai Renxiang in confusion.

How will you ask a question with your own answer to a question that you do not even know or have no clue about? Old man Jiang saw the confusion in her face and chuckled lightly. He then proceeded to explain what he meant.

After their short and talk, they proceeded to the meeting room where all the boards were already present. On her arrival with old man Jiang, they all stood up as an act of respect. After settling down on the black leather chair at the head of the long rectangular black table, she asked them to seat so that the meeting would proceed.

The meeting began. To start with, all the people present in that room took their turns to introduce themselves properly to the new CEO. After the introduction, the real deal began. They started talking of the ups and downs of the company of recent. The profits and the kisses of every year.

"CEO, how do you intend to increase the profits of the Jiang's Corporation?" One of the board members in charge of the finance of the company asked.

He is the second person that oppose Bai Renxiang being CEO along with Mr Quan and the Vice President Jiang Bojing. He wanted to text her ability and see if she is truly capable like the chairman had said.

"I believe your question is pertaining to what business will make increments of the company's profits?" She rephrased the man's question.

"Yes, ma'am," Mr Jia answered.

"Well, we can first of all start with our skin care products and fashion designs. If we can get a top model or actress that'll n City S that will be willing to be the face of our skin care products, the demands and popularity of it will soar high," she began.

"Based on the recent advertisement of our products, I have noticed that we only use small time models and actresses. I think that is why the profits are beginning to drop."

"That is true. But which too actress model will be willing to be the face our company skin care products?" Mr Long, another board member asked.

"Looks like you are underestimating this company Mr Long. Jiang Corporation is not a small business company in case you have forgotten," Bai Renxiang reminder the man.

"We have the ability to sort after and pay a top model or actress but we have refused to go and search. Or are you people are getting comfortable in the current gainings of the company turned a blind eye to the plummet of the company's money?" She asked as her gaze swept through the people seated in the room.

What Bai Renxiang said is true. The board seems to be nonchalant about the slow fall of their finance. One would not be quick to notice it but been the keen eyed person she is, she noticed it while going through the documents that Charlie had sent to her.

Old man Jiang was was on cloud nine of proudness as he watched his granddaughter's findings and suggestions. Even he failed to notice the dropping of their products. It looks like he has found the company a saviour.

The silence that reigned in the room gave Bai Renxiang the answer she was looking for. This goons are really relaxed about the whole matter.

"So it is true. You are all unaware or rather have decided to ignore this situation of the skin products because the other businesses are thriving," she stated.

"No ma'am. We would not dare to ignore this," another board member quickly denied the case and so did the others. They would not dare to admit such thing. First of all this new CEO seemed... scary. Secondly, the chairman was present in their midst they would not dare to admit such.

"Listen to me. All of you. We will start by looking for actress or a model that is in the rank of top twenty in game and beauty. Once we can do that, we will start with the making the advertisement for sales," she suggested.

The board nodded their heads in understanding as they also took note of other things that she said. After that, more details about other businesses came in and ways to curb whatever problem the company was facing.

By the time the meeting was over, Bai Renxiang felt mentally exhausted. But she knew that this is just the beginning, the tip of the iceberg and there is more to come.

"You did well my dear. I enjoyed the meeting for the first time in a long time," old man Jiang praised her as he patted her head.

"Hmm. Young mi- I mean boss did great," Charlie also praised her.

"Thank you grandpa and you too Assistant Charlie. Are you leaving now grandpa?" She asked seeing that he is not heading to the office.

"Hmm. I am quiet tired and want to rest. I am assured that Charlie will help you if you are finding anything difficult to understand. Also I think you can handle things well," he said referring her performance in the meeting.

"Do not miss this old man too much. Remember to take breaks and eat, okay? I do not want your mother scolding me if anything happens," he said making Bai Renxiang to laugh at him.

True.. If Jiang Meilin were to get wind of get skipping meals or not taking breaks and overworking herself, she would make sure that old man Jiang would get a good scold and nagging from her.
