Chapter 211: Heaven's Favored Child Lin Ruoxue
However, unlike everyone else's shock and scorn, a spark of understanding flickered in the beautiful eyes of Lin Ruoxue and Xia Qiuru!
They both knew just how heaven-defying Su Chen's language abilities were!
To this day, they still couldn't forget that test paper thoroughly introducing Belle Corporation with nearly two hundred languages from various countries and regions.
And for a Public Relations department, proficiency in multiple languages was clearly the most critical requirement!
This was especially true for a corporation like Belle that aimed to break into the international market.
The only thing that puzzled Lin Ruoxue was why he had repeatedly refused her invitations to join the Public Relations department in the past, yet today he was volunteering for it?
Regardless, this was a good development, and besides, Lin Ruoxue didn't want her husband to remain a low-level driver indefinitely.
Just when everyone thought Lin Ruoxue was going to reject Su Chen's far-fetched request, she announced with unassailable authority,
"Fine, from now on, you are the Head of the Public Relations department!"
As soon as these words were uttered, a commotion erupted among the crowd!
Lin Chao's expression grew stern, and his eyes flashed with a sinister gleam!
However, he didn't rush to object because he knew there were more than just one or two people dissatisfied with Lin Ruoxue's decision!
Niu Xuewen's face, in particular, was clouded with anger, his chest heaving with barely contained fury due to the tense atmosphere.
Sure enough, someone promptly stood up:
"President Lin, I oppose your appointment. Su Chen is only a driver, completely lacking experience in PR work," one person protested.
"Indeed, I also object. The Head of the Public Relations department is a key leadership position within our corporation. It cannot be granted so casually!"
These comments were now an implicit challenge to Lin Ruoxue's authority.
"President Lin, you mustn't let personal feelings interfere with your professional decisions. I have nothing against Su Chen personally, but this appointment of yours is sheer chaos!"
The speaker was a hot-tempered veteran vice president, his words pointedly accusing Lin Ruoxue, even going as far as to label her decision as 'chaotic,' clearly indicating his level of anger!
With the veteran's lead, others voiced their true thoughts.
In essence, they were saying, Lin Ruoxue, you cannot grant such a critical position in the corporation to your lover, it's an extreme disservice to the company!
Normally, Lin Ruoxue maintained significant respect in the corporation, certainly due to her ability and fairness in handling affairs.
Now, to see everyone unanimously turn against her shows how outraged they were by Lin Ruoxue's recent decision!
Lin Chao, seeing the crowd's fervent reaction, couldn't help but reveal a playful smile.
He then stood up, his eyes fixed on Lin Ruoxue as he said,
"President Lin, I know you have a special relationship with Su Chen, but I hope you can keep your personal and professional lives separate. Belle Corporation is not solely yours."
Lin Chao's identity extended beyond just being the Deputy Head of the Marketing Department; as a member of the Lin Family, his opinions carried considerable weight.
Continue your journey on empire
Su Chen, seeing that Lin Chao had finally spoken up, displayed a faint smile on his face!
His previous suggestion was merely a probe, designed to gauge Lin Chao's reaction, and Lin Chao's behavior had confirmed his suspicions.
Undoubtedly, the death of that department head, Director Xiao, must be linked to him, and Vice Head Niu Xuewen was undoubtedly on his side...
For a brief moment, everyone's attention turned to Lin Ruoxue, awaiting her decision!
To be honest, most employees of Belle Corporation felt a strong sense of belonging, wanting the corporation to thrive.
If it wasn't so, they wouldn't be opposing so vehemently. After all, this is the Lin Family's enterprise; why should it matter to us whether it prospers or fails?
Facing the accusations from the crowd, Lin Ruoxue remained unmoved, as if she had anticipated this very scene, her lips curving into a sly smile.
"You all are the elite of the Belle Group, with exceptional skills and insights. In your opinion, what is the most important ability for the head of the public relations department?"
Lin Ruoxue asked, smiling as she swept her gaze over everyone.
"Firstly, it naturally involves handling various emergencies, especially the ability to manage crises, and secondly, the ability to communicate and interact."
The senior vice president, who had been with the company for a long time, answered naturally.
At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Ruoxue with puzzled faces, not understanding why she was asking these questions.
"Vice President Tu was right just now. Wouldn't you all like to know why I asked this question?"
Lin Ruoxue suddenly said with a slight smile.
Everyone nodded unconsciously, their confusion deepening on their faces.
Su Chen stood beside Lin Ruoxue, watching her confidence, and silently sighed to himself. His wife was really something, taking complete control of the situation with just a few words, leading everyone to unconsciously follow her line of thought.
Su Chen lamented again at the unfairness of the heavens. Not only had they bestowed Lin Ruoxue with an extremely beautiful face and a perfect body that made all men fantasize,
That wasn't enough; they also gave her extraordinary intelligence and ability!
Su Chen seriously wondered if Lin Ruoxue had spent her past life doing good deeds, for why else would the heavens be so generous to her?
Of course, this was just a fleeting thought from Su Chen.
"Since I insist on appointing Su Chen, and you all disagree, you all know that I, Lin Ruoxue, am not someone who makes decisions unilaterally, right?"
Lin Ruoxue remarked gravely.
"Indeed, President Lin has always been open-minded."
"That's right, President Lin has always been fair and just in our eyes, and we hope that you will always remain so."
...
Faced with Lin Ruoxue's question, everyone began to outdo one another in flattery, praising her for her fairness and impartiality, kindness, the ability to listen to candid advice, open-mindedness, and so on.
At the same time, most of them also indirectly expressed the hope that Lin Ruoxue would continue in this manner and not let personal preferences tarnish the glowing image she held in everyone's minds.
Of course, specifically in the current appointment of the public relations head, they hoped she would change her mind and appoint Niu Xuewen instead of Su Chen.
Lin Ruoxue clearly understood the subtext of everyone's words and smiled as she said:
"Since there is a disagreement, we should all think of a way to resolve it and find a solution that everyone can accept—don't you think that would make sense?"
Naturally, there were no other responses to such a question, and everyone nodded in agreement, but how to resolve it?
"Does President Lin have any specific methods in mind?"
The somewhat hot-tempered Vice President Tu asked.
Although he had a bit of a temper, he truly regarded the Belle Group as his own child.
He had been striving alongside Old Mr. Lin for decades, and even though Mr. Lin had retired, he still couldn't bear to leave.
"A method? Well, there is one."
Lin Ruoxue looked at the curious eyes of the crowd, paused slightly, and then said with a smile:
"That would be to have the two of them compete on the spot."
