“Sit.”
Lin Chuan raised his hand to signal.
The Little Landlady was quite impressed with Karl at first sight, finding the title “Chairman’s wife” particularly pleasing to the ear.
Since the Little Landlady was Lin Chuan’s personal secretary, Lin Chuan did not have an additional secretary; thus, the task of serving tea in the office fell on Li Qing.
Li Qing poured tea for Lin Chuan, Zhang Xinxin, and Karl.
Lin Chuan took a sip, his gaze meeting Karl’s, “Karl, do you find the tea to your liking?”
Karl, not too formal, smiled, “I used to drink tea often with Deputy Director Du at Southern Network, but after he was pushed out, I seldom had it.”
“Try our 720 tea; the taste is quite good.”
Lin Chuan smiled.
“Sure!”
Karl smiled knowingly, picked up the tea cup, and took a gentle sip.
“You’ve gotten used to living in Han River Capital. What brought you to Anling, this small place?” Lin Chuan inquired with interest.
Karl set down his tea cup and answered honestly, “Last night, I had a long talk with Director Li. I had conflicts with Zhao Sanqi, the technical director at Southern Network, so I resigned. However, there’s another reason I didn’t mention to Director Li.”
“Oh?”
Lin Chuan was somewhat interested.
“Actually, I have a girlfriend from Anling. She is in the Yayi Dance Troupe here in Anling. Coming to Anling also gave me a chance to see her more often,” Karl said with genuine emotion.
Lin Chuan nodded.
Having gained an initial understanding of Karl’s reasons for leaving and his choice of 720, the conversation turned to work matters.
Whether Karl could handle being the manager of the technical department would still depend on his work capabilities.
It had to be said.
Karl’s abilities and technical skills were outstanding.
He responded fluently to some common issues raised by Lin Chuan and even provided solutions after brief thought for some more obscure technicalities.
With such an ability to perform, he was more than qualified to be the manager of the technical department.
Li Qing escorted Karl out of the office to the HR department to complete the relevant procedures.
In the office, only Lin Chuan and Xinxin remained.
Xinxin then said, “This Karl seems quite capable.”
“He certainly is.”
Lin Chuan praised him, noting that Karl’s performance was flawless, even for the role of 720’s technical director.
However…
Lin Chuan glanced at the door.
“What’s wrong?”
The Little Landlady, who knew Lin Chuan inside and out, noticed something different about his expression.
Lin Chuan smiled, “Nothing, just curious how directors and deputy directors at workplaces go against each other.”
“You want to gossip too?”
The Little Landlady blinked playfully and smiled.
“I’m looking for online literature material. If I ever write a workplace novel, conflicts are classic plots, aren’t they?” Lin Chuan laughed.
The Little Landlady agreed completely, nodding, “That’s true. Our company is too harmonious, lacking in conflicts. But, I’m more curious about how he got together with a dancer from the Yayi Dance Troupe.”
Lin Chuan and the Little Landlady exchanged smiles.
To them, Karl joining 720 was merely a minor episode.
After meeting with Karl, it wasn’t long before Lin Chuan went upstairs to Falcon Technology Co., Ltd, continuing with weapon production matters.
The essential blueprints and patents were all prepared, and the workload for Shen Qianqian and Xia Qingqing was no longer high.
Lin Chuan also took some time to investigate Lucas from Morgan Group.
That night, Lin Chuan had decided—
To take down Morgan Group, starting with Lucas!
However, key figures like Lucas, who barely show themselves, are difficult to locate with a massive network search.
Even following Yu Keke’s lead from the last time, searching for two days yielded no results.
The Haas Armed Forces wouldn’t provide any information about Morgan Group either.
This was an unwritten industry rule.
“/hello.jpg.”
That night.
Lin Chuan thought of Angelina, whom he had yet to meet in person, a little hacker fan far away in North Bear.
“Idol, are we telepathically linked?”
Angelina almost immediately replied.
Her location was five hours behind Lin Chuan’s time.
Lin Chuan sat in his home study, fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard, “Telepathically linked, you’re also looking for me?”
“Yes, I just happen to need you, do you also need me?” Angelina asked.
“Yes, I want to inquire about a person.”
