Lin Pingchao was really stimulated. Originally, in order to please Lin Xiaotian and change his image in the old man's heart, he carefully prepared two gifts, but who knew that they were all wasted in Qin Haodong's hands as soon as they were taken out.
But now it seems that even if his two items are intact, they cannot be compared with the jade roasted chicken that Lin Momo sent. The value is more than ten times worse.
As a result, not only will his status in the old man's mind not change, but on the contrary, it will become worse than before. Because of this, he shouted desperately.
Lin Zhigao hurriedly grabbed him and scolded him: "Today is your grandfather's birthday. What are you yelling about? Is there anything fair or unfair?"
Lin Pingchao did not restrain himself at all, and still shouted: "It's not fair, this is unfair."
Everyone became silent. Lin Xiaotian looked at Lin Pingchao with a gloomy face and asked, "Tell me, where is the unfairness?"
Lin Pingchao said: "My cousin is the president of the Lin Group. She is in charge of the resources of the entire group. Of course, she can choose from all kinds of good things. That's why we can find such high-quality Huang Fei and find such a master with such superb craftsmanship to carve it.
If I were the president of the group, I would definitely be able to prepare a better gift than this for grandpa."
After listening to what he said, Lin Xiaotian's expression softened somewhat and he said: "Gifts are not valuable. With your filial piety, I know that there is nothing fair or unfair."
Many people thought that Lin Pingchao would just let it go, but he said again: "Grandpa, this is unfair!
I am also a descendant of the Lin family. Moreover, I am the only male of the third generation of the Lin family. I am only one year younger than my cousin in terms of age. I am no lower than her in terms of education and ability. Why do I hold the position of CEO?
Let her do it, why can't I be the president of the Lin family?"
"Presumptuous!" Lin Xiaotian slammed the table and said angrily: "When will it be your turn to make irresponsible remarks on family affairs?"
Lin Pingchao was usually extremely afraid of the old man, but today he made up his mind and shouted: "Grandpa, I just want a chance to compete fairly. I just want to compete with Sister Tang to see who is more suitable to be the president of the Lin family."
Just when Lin Xiaotian was about to get angry, an old man in his sixties next to him said: "Brother, Pingchao is actually right. A few years ago, he was still young, so it didn't matter that he was not given the position of CEO, but now Pingchao has grown up."
There should be a chance for fair competition."
The old man who spoke was Lin Xiaotian's cousin Lin Xiaofeng, who was also directly affiliated with the Lin family and had a strong say in the Lin family.
Immediately afterwards, another old man said: "Yes, I think this kid Pingchao has good abilities, and I should give him a chance to show off."
After opening an opening, the direct members of the Lin family who were Lin Xiaotian's equals began to speak for Lin Pingchao. Finally, an old man in his eighties stood up and said tremblingly: "Xiaotian, no matter what
After all, Pingchao is also a man from our Lin family. Although Momo is not bad, she is a woman after all and will get married sooner or later. I think you should give Pingchao a timely opportunity."
Lin Xiaotian doesn't have to listen to what others say, but this old man is very senior, and he still wants to be called Uncle Qi. He is the only remaining member of the previous generation of the Lin family.
Now that things have come to an end, he has already seen that Lin Pingchao had planned all of this a long time ago, otherwise there would not be so many people standing up to speak out on this occasion.
Lin Xiaotian was immediately stumped. As the current head of the Lin family, he must be fair and just in his affairs. But now so many people are standing up to speak for Lin Pingchao. If they don't listen, it is arbitrary and unfair. If they are forced to change their minds,
Not only would the majesty of the family owner be offended, but it would also be unfair to Lin Momo, who has always been diligent.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Lin Momo stood up and said, "Grandpa, I also hope to compete fairly with my cousin. If Pingchao is really capable of serving as president, I am willing to quit."
"Okay then." Lin Xiaotian sighed. Lin Momo was able to take the initiative to propose fair competition because she knew the basics. This made things much easier for him as the head of the family.
He said to Lin Pingchao, "What kind of competition law do you want?"
When Lin Pingchao saw that Lin Xiaotian agreed, he was immediately overjoyed. Everything he did just now was not impulsive, but had been planned for a long time. Including the elders of the Lin family who just spoke for him, he had lobbied for it in advance, and some even gave it away.
A very heavy gift.
Seeing that he had achieved success, he controlled his excitement and said: "Our Lin Group has always been focused on the jade industry. I hope that my cousin and I will not rely on the strength of the Lin Group and open a store entirely on our own.
Whoever makes the most profits at that time will be the most suitable to be the head of the Lin family."
Lin Xiaofeng said: "Brother, this is a good idea. If you can run a jade shop well, it proves that you can lead the entire Linzhi Group well."
Lin Xiaotian turned to look at Lin Momo and said, "Momo, what do you think of this method?"
"I think it's good."
Lin Momo agreed simply and neatly.
During this period, she had had enough of Lin Pingchao's continuous harassment, and hoped that in this way, Lin Pingchao could completely give up hope. If Lin Pingchao could really win, she would also be willing to give up her position as president.
"Then we will implement this plan, but for the sake of fairness, the rules still need to be refined." Lin Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "Our Lin family recently opened a new branch in Jiangnan City. It is not open yet, so I will leave it to you for the time being.
The siblings use it as a platform for fair competition.
The store is divided in two from the middle, and each of you siblings will run your own jade industry there. The time is limited to one day, starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 5 p.m. Whoever has the highest turnover will win.
Starting today, you go back and make preparations, and we will officially open for business in three days."
Lin Xiaofeng nodded and said: "This method is the most fair, but a fair person is needed to collect money in the store to avoid disputes over sales in the end."
According to his idea, he wanted to be the notary public. However, Lin Xiaotian had already seen that his cousin was biased towards Lin Pingchao, so he did not give him this opportunity at all. He said: "The problem of the notary public is easy to solve. The store only has
There is a cashier, and the goods sold on both sides are paid in the same way. The cashier is jointly supervised by Zhigao and Zhiyuan, so there will be no problems."
His method was indeed very clever. Although Lin Zhiyuan and Lin Zhigao were brothers, they naturally preferred their own children, so with the two of them guarding the cashier, there would naturally be no difference in money.
Lin Zhiyuan said: "Although this method is good, there is still a problem in it, which is how to prevent both parties from using money to buy their own things. In this way, it becomes a financial competition between two people, and it is impossible to see who has stronger sales ability.
.”
Lin Pingchao's heart suddenly dawned. He had indeed had such a plan before. Even if he couldn't compare to Lin Momo in terms of sales, he would be able to win if he used the money to buy his own products. Unexpectedly, his uncle told him about it first.
.
Lin Xiaotian thought for a while and said: "This is easy to handle. All the turnover of both parties on that day will belong to the group. If they have money and are willing to donate it to the group, then I will be more willing to accept it."
Jiang is still old and hot. Although his trick cannot completely eliminate fraud, it still plays a very restrictive role. Just imagine that no one can take out a lot of money from their pockets, and eventually they all join the group.
pocket.
Having said this, he turned to Lin Momo and Lin Pingchao and said, "Do you have any objections?"
Lin Pingchao worked hard for this opportunity, so naturally he would not object and said quickly: "I have no objection."
Lin Momo said: "I listen to grandpa."
Now that the matter has come to an end, the birthday banquet will continue.
In the afternoon, Lin Xiaotian's birthday party ended, and Lin Momo and Qin Haodong returned to the Lin family villa together.
After the little guy entered the door, he got on Da Mao and ran out to play. Lin Zhiyuan said to Lin Momo: "Momo, actually you don't have to agree today. Grandpa will definitely not force you."
Lin Momo said: "I know grandpa will not force me, but I don't want to always be said that I rely on grandpa's protection to sit in the position of president. I want to prove myself.
Moreover, my cousin has been causing trouble for me one after another recently, and I also want to make him give up completely through this matter."
"But, what if you are going to lose?" Lin Zhiyuan asked.
"If you lose, you lose. In fact, sitting in the position of president is really tiring. It would be good if you hand it over."
"As long as you can accept it, dad will support you no matter what you choose."
After Lin Zhiyuan finished speaking, he walked upstairs. Only Qin Haodong and Lin Momo were left in the hall.
Seeing his father-in-law leaving, Qin Haodong took Lin Momo's hand and said, "Momo, how did I perform today?"
"That's quite outstanding. Thank you for preparing such a good gift for grandpa." Lin Momo kissed Qin Haodong on the cheek, "This is your reward."
Then she added, "You made Lin Pingchao's life miserable today. He didn't even keep any of the gifts worth more than 30 million yuan. He was going crazy.
"Who makes him always want to steal your limelight? No one can bully my woman casually." Qin Haodong said, "But Lin Pingchao's scheming is indeed deep enough. Although he is angry, he is still far from mad. Everything that follows is
He has already prepared the game."
Lin Momo asked with a slight surprise: "You mean, he and grandpa proposed to compete with me in advance, and it was not an impromptu decision?"
Qin Haodong said: "Of course it was not a sudden move, otherwise there would be so many people standing up to speak for him. These people must be the helpers he had found in advance."
Lin Momo still didn't believe it and asked: "Is it possible? If he had already prepared before, why would he go to all the trouble to give a gift to grandpa? Couldn't he just ask to compete with me?"
"You have used all your intelligence and talents on outsiders, while Lin Pingchao has used all his little thoughts on his own family, trying every possible means to snatch the position of CEO away from you."
Qin Haodong said: "If I'm not wrong, he has prepared two strategies in advance. The best strategy is to please the old man with gifts. It would be best if the old man can happily hand over the position of president to him. The worst strategy is to force the palace in public and force him to do so.
The old man agrees that he and you will compete fairly.
Because of my appearance, his best strategy failed, so he had to use the worst strategy."
Lin Momo remained silent, acquiescing, and told Qin Haodong that she was very smart, but she just didn't want to spend time on her family, so she didn't think too much about Lin Pingchao.
Qin Haodong asked: "Do you want to win or lose this game?"
