Lu Qiang is the designated heir of the third generation of the Qiangsheng Group.
Among the Lu Family’s second generation, none have particularly outstanding business acun.
For instance, Lu Chuan’s father and Lu Yao’s father both control relatively important resources within the group.
However, they do not participate in the group’s business decisions.
In other words, after Lu Jianguo’s passing, Lu Qiang, the eldest son and grandson of the Lu Family, will take over the entire group.
Within Qiangsheng Group, Lu Qiang is famously strong-willed.
After returning from studying at prestigious foreign universities, he started from the bottom of the group.
He has worked as a delivery guy, been in sales and marketing roles in branch companies, and even worked in film company logistics.
It can be said that in the expansive Qiangsheng Group, Lu Qiang has perford most of the frontline jobs.
Thus, Lu Qiang is very familiar with the grassroots conditions of the group and is quite aware of the managent’s procrastination and the myriad of issues.
Through his actions, he has dismissed branch managers not rely with a single hand.
Today is the high-level group eting, chaired by Lu Qiang, with Lu Jianguo receiving reports.
Qiangsheng Group is not a listed company, nor does it have internal equity distribution; everyone present works for the group.
Of course, having no equity does not an there’s no financial prospect.
Every executive’s annual salary here is in the tens of millions.
Many are nationally renowned professional managers.
Such etings are held only once a month.
Lu Jianguo has few requirents regarding everyone’s managent areas.
One is profit reporting, and the other is compliance with laws and regulations.
The most elite team in Qiangsheng Group is not the managent team, but the audit team.
With hundreds of professional auditors, it hangs over everyone like a sword, supervising constantly.
Yet during such a eting, after glancing at his private phone, Lu Qiang surprisingly stood up and left, instructing his deputy to chair the eting.
Even Lu Jianguo gave a surprised glance at his satisfied grandson.
However, he showed no visible reaction.
If Lu Qiang left at this ti, there must be a more important matter.
In the rest area beside the eting room.
Lu Qiang directly dialed Lu Chuan’s number.
"Chuan, are you dating? Since when? Who’s the woman?"
Lu Chuan knew that asking his big brother Lu Qiang for help would surely lead to these questions.
However, for the best effect at tonight’s dinner, having Lu Qiang step in is the safest choice.
"Big brother, she’s our team colleague."
"Is it the forensic doctor nad Shen Yan, whose father is the Vice Director of the Public Security Bureau?"
"Uh... Big brother, how did you know?"
Lu Chuan had never ntioned Shen Yan’s affairs to his family, and he didn’t even know about Shen Yan’s father’s position until Old Bai told him.
"Last ti you brought her to the race track, Third told , and I checked it out."
Lu Yao...
Big mouth.
"How far along are you?"
"Hand-holding."
"Hand-holding? You’re a bit slow."
Lu Chuan...
"Big brother, can you arrange it or should I hang up?"
"Haha, I can, I definitely can, I’ll text you when it’s done."
Hanging up the phone, Lu Qiang stood up with an excited expression.
What’s the most important thing for the Lu Family now?
Is it money?
Of course not.
It’s lineage.
Having money, it must be passed down.
If the lineage is broken, what good is earning more money?
Therefore, every third-generation male of the Lu Family having a girlfriend is a big deal.
Moreover, Lu Chuan has been enshrined in the ancestral hall, currently having a position beside Lu Jianguo during incense offerings.
Even Lu Qiang does not have that privilege.
Upon returning to the eting room, Lu Qiang did not go back to his seat.
Instead, he went straight to Lu Jianguo and whispered a few words in his ear.
The old man’s expression changed from calm to delighted: "Really?"
Lu Qiang nodded affirmatively.
"Good, today’s eting is adjourned."
Though everyone looked at each other with surprise at the eting being cut short halfway through, no one questioned Lu Jianguo’s authority.
"Lu Qiang, arrange for tonight’s dinner, and besides..."
Lu Jianguo looked at the ti, it was still early.
"Make an appointnt with Vice Director Shen of the Public Security Bureau, saying that I want to visit!"
"Yes!"
Lu Chuan didn’t expect that his simple confession would cause such a reaction.
Haizhou City Public Security Bureau.
Vice Director Shen’s office.
"Lu Jianguo of Qiangsheng Group wants to see ?"
Shen Wansong looked puzzled at the office director: "Old Cao, did you make a mistake?"
"If Lu Jianguo is coming to our bureau, he should be seeing Director Song, why co to see ?"
Shen Wansong oversees areas like informatization and traffic police in the bureau.
Leaving informatization aside, Shen Wansong indeed holds significant power over the traffic police.
In past occasions when Qiangsheng Group donated funds to the Public Security Bureau, the dealings were directly with the director, and Lu Jianguo only showed face once.
Later, dealings were handled by others.
After all, for Qiangsheng Group, the money they donate to the Public Security Bureau is not much compared to the amount donated to schools in Haizhou City.
This ti, Lu Jianguo not only wants to visit personally, but wants to see , the Vice Director.
What’s going on?
"Director Shen, the office called to confirm, President Lu indeed wants to see you."
Being able to sit in the position of Vice Director of the Public Security Bureau, Shen Wansong naturally had his reasons.
After a brief thought, he generally understood what this might be about.
He had no direct dealings with Qiangsheng Group; if it were about their traffic violations, Lu Jianguo wouldn’t need to personally co to him.
The people below can handle that.
If there’s sothing connecting him with the Lu Family, it could only be his daughter.
Lu Chuan!
"Alright Old Cao, notify when they arrive, and report to Director Song as well; let’s go down to welco them."
After the office director left, Shen Wansong picked up his phone, thought for a mont, and put it down again.
His precious daughter probably doesn’t know about this yet, otherwise, she would have called him.
Since there was no call, calling her wouldn’t provide any useful information.
Suddenly, the morning scene of Lu Chuan picking up Shen Yan flashed in Shen Wansong’s mind.
That kid seed to have driven a flashy sports car today.
Lu Jianguo...
Shen Wansong’s lips curled slightly.
How could having sons be better than having a daughter?
Isn’t this bringing a wealthy son-in-law?
Hmph!
Who said forensic doctors can’t find partners?
PM.
At the entrance of the Public Security Bureau building.
"Mr. Lu, what an honor, I, on behalf of the City Public Security Bureau, sincerely thank Mr. Lu and Qiangsheng Group for your strong support for police work!"
Song Jiangguo and Shen Wansong, along with the office director, welcod Lu Jianguo at the building’s entrance.
"Director Song, you are too kind. Supporting police work is an undeniable duty of ours as citizens. This ti, I’m here to discuss additional donations with you all."
"Moreover," Lu Jianguo glanced at Shen Wansong: "Director Shen, I’ve heard of you but haven’t t you, this ti we must have a good chat."
