“Lao Ling, your chess skills are quite impressive!” Zhou Chao said as he placed a stone on the board, successfully trapping Ling Chen’s ‘dragon.’ It took Ling Chen a while to react.

“Boss, I won’t play with you anymore. We’ve played six games, and I’ve lost every one of them. In the beginning, you gave me a lot of hope, but as the game progressed, you cut off my path, so it’s better to win from the start!” Ling Chen placed two more stones on the board, wearing a dejected expression as he looked at Zhou Chao sitting on the sofa.

“Haha, playing chess is similar to managing a business. Both require a gradual approach. If you crush your opponent from the start with absolute strength, it loses its appeal. You have to boil the frog slowly. When it realizes, it’s too late to escape!”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Ling Chen seemed to ponder them. Today, he discovered that his boss’ chess skills were probably beyond his reach. Perhaps in places he hadn’t looked, a vast network had already been deployed. These games of chess weren’t just guidance; they were also a lesson.

“Boss, I understand! We should only reveal our full hand when all the cards of our opponents are on the table!”

“Yes, in the face of absolute strength, all resistance is futile, but there may still be some minor pains and aches. It’s best to avoid them, even though it’s not troublesome, it makes one uncomfortable!”

“Understood, Boss!”

“Alright, it’s almost time. Show me the information for the Tourism Division. I’m going to meet with the division’s head later, and it would be embarrassing not to know anything!”

“Just wait a moment, 1’11 organize it right away!” Ling Chen replied and returned to his desk, starting to arrange the documents.

About five minutes later, Ling Chen came back with a notebook. Zhou Chao took it and started reading the overview of the Tourism Division on the computer.

There wasn’t much information to go through, and Zhou Chao quickly finished reading.

“Lao Ling, do you see any issues with the Tourism Division?” Zhou Chao turned to Ling Chen.

“Boss, please provide your guidance on any shortcomings!”

Ling Chen hesitated for a moment, as if thinking, but soon began to speak.

“At the moment, our Tourism Division has already established a presence in many places and captured a significant share of the market. However, we’ve been working hard for money, collaborating with various scenic spots and attractions. To achieve better future development, I believe we need our own flagship products!”

“You’re right. To grow and strengthen, we first need our own products; otherwise, we’ll always be working for others. When Liu Jie arrives, let’s see what vision he has. A capable leader should have a unique perspective!”

“Yes.” Ling Chen nodded in agreement.

Soon, it was half-past two in the afternoon. Ling Chen’s assistant knocked on the door and entered.

“Boss, Director Ling, the head of the Tourism Division, has arrived!”

“Let him in, and bring in three cups of tea as well,” Ling Chen instructed his assistant, who then left the room and closed the door.

“Alright!” The secretary walked out of the office, and before long, a robust man with short hair, not particularly handsome but exuding an air of integrity, entered the room.

As soon as Liu Jie stepped into the office, he noticed Zhou Chao and Ling Chen sitting on the sofa. He quickly walked over.

“Boss, Director Ling!”

“Have a seat!” Zhou Chao gestured for him to sit on the nearby sofa.

Liu Jie sat down somewhat hesitantly. The surprise in his eyes had yet to fade. Initially, he thought Ling Chen had summoned him for a discussion, but seeing the boss in person indicated that something significant was about to happen, likely related to him. With this realization, a hint of a smile appeared on Liu Jie’s face.

During this time, the assistant returned with tea and served it to the three of them before leaving the room and closing the office door behind her.

“Today, 1 called you here to discuss the future development plan of the Tourism Division. You are the head of the Tourism Division, and I’d like to hear your thoughts,” Zhou Chao said, taking a sip of tea and then looking at Liu Jie.

Liu Jie felt the pressure from his boss’s gaze, took a deep breath, composed himself, and pondered for a moment before looking at Zhou Chao and Ling Chen.

“Boss, Mr. Ling, I believe that our Tourism Division has almost reached its limits. Only by launching new tourism projects or investing in well-constructed scenic areas of our own can we take the next step forward. It shouldn’t remain just a distribution company like it is now.”

Liu Jie continued to share his thoughts, most of which were about the future development of the Tourism Division and the changes that needed to be made. Zhou Chao and Ling Chen exchanged glances, both sensing a pleasant surprise in each other’s eyes.

“Well, that’s good. It seems you’ve put a lot of effort into this. Ling Chen, why don’t you tell Liu Jie the purpose of bringing him here?”

Ling Chen nodded and turned his gaze to Liu Jie, who was eagerly awaiting an answer.

“The group is about to receive a world-class cruise ship in Modu, perhaps you’ve heard of it — the ‘Independence of the Seas.’ This cruise ship now belongs to our group, and the boss’s intention is to entrust the management of this cruise ship to your Tourism Division. Do you feel confident about it?” Ling Chen finished speaking and looked at Liu Jie with a smile.

It took Liu Jie about ten seconds to recover from his shock, and he stared at Zhou Chao and Ling Chen in disbelief.

“Boss, Director Ling, are you saying you want to entrust a billion-dollar cruise ship to me?”

“Yes, that’s right. What’s the matter? Don’t you have the confidence to manage it well? In that case, we can consider someone else!” Zhou Chao teased.

Upon hearing this, Liu Jie quickly stood up and exclaimed, “Please rest assured, Boss and Director Ling. I will definitely turn the Tourism Division into a well-known tourism company in Asia. Please trust me!”

Zhou Chao and Ling Chen smiled as they heard Liu Jie’s assurance. Zhou Chao waved his hand to signal him to sit back down.

“The cruise ship is now under your responsibility. It comes with a fully equipped staff on board. I hope you can make good use of it. I don’t want you to make mistakes in your future work and disappoint Ling Chen, who recommended you.”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Liu Jie, feeling grateful to Ling Chen, stood up again to express his gratitude. Ling Chen was taken aback by Zhou Chao’s unexpected move and quickly pulled Liu Jie back to his seat.

“All right, if you have any questions in the future, just report directly to Ling Chen. You can go now!” Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Liu Jie promptly stood up, bowed to both of them, and then left the office.

Liu Jie exited the office, closed the office door, and exclaimed happily, “Yes!” His joyful outburst caught the attention of people passing by, who turned their gaze toward the delighted Liu Jie.

“Lao Ling, make sure to keep a close eye on him and don’t let him slip away. He’s a talent; nurture him well!”

“Boss, you can rest assured. 1 won’t let you down.”

Zhou Chao nodded in response, checked his watch, and saw that it was already past three o’clock.

“It’s getting late, 1’11 head back now. 1 won’t disturb your work any longer,” Zhou Chao said as he stood up from the sofa and started walking towards the exit.

“Then… Boss, I won’t see you off!”

“Alright, no need to escort me. You focus on your work!” Without looking back, Zhou Chao waved his hand and left..
