I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 435 Personally Appointing Generals
The next issue is the development and design of the Jinghai Bank mobile banking app.

Currently, the bank only has a computer-based online banking client; there is no mobile version. After Fang Qingye took over the bank, he immediately instructed Yang Weiyi, who was in charge of this aspect, to begin developing a mobile online banking app.

Since Jinghai Bank itself lacks the capability, including outsourcing the development of its online banking client to a software company in Jinghai, Yang Weiyi immediately responded upon hearing Fang Qingye's question:

"The day before yesterday, Minister Zhang from the Ministry of Science and Technology Information went to Jinghai specifically for this matter. He said that they could produce a trial version of mobile banking before May Day."

"That's good. We must get this done quickly! Don't underestimate this thing; the future of Jinghai Bank lies in it!" Fang Qingye emphasized.

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Yang Weiyi's eyes, but she quickly concealed it: "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to deliver on time."

After exchanging a few more words, Fang Qingye announced the end of the meeting.

Yang Weiyi left the office but did not return to his own room. Instead, he followed Zhao Wenjun into his office.

As soon as he entered, he tossed Zhao Wenjun a cigarette and eagerly lit one for himself.

Both of them were heavy smokers, and they used to smoke one cigarette after another during meetings. But after Fang Qingye became the bank manager, he stopped smoking himself and announced that no one could smoke during meetings, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

After taking a half-smok, Yang Weiyi felt much better. Then, thinking of something, he sighed, "Looks like we old folks are going to have to step aside."

Zhao Wenjun understood what he meant. It was obvious that Fang Qingye preferred young and highly educated employees, which could be strongly felt from the selection of the person in charge of the Pingdong branch today.

However, he is not too worried about it. He is only 44 years old this year, which is the golden age for a man to build his career.

Yang Weiyi, who was rehired by the People's Bank of China, is 55 years old this year and won't be able to work for many more years.

Of course, he couldn't say that. Instead, he smiled and comforted him, "President Yang, what are you worried about? You are a bank leader, not just an ordinary middle manager. Our bank still needs experienced veterans like you to keep things in order."

Hearing this, Yang Weiyi felt much better and asked again:

"Then tell me, who is the most suitable person for the position of branch manager of Pingdong branch?"

Zhao Wenjun didn't answer directly but said, "You're in charge of human resources, think it over carefully and I'll give you another hint."

"what?"

"It's that mobile banking that Fang Xing just mentioned. You should keep this in mind and it would be best to go to Jinghai in person to see how the development is going."

“I know.” Yang Weiyi still had a nonchalant attitude. “But I don’t understand why he values ​​this so much? A lot of people are still using feature phones and can’t even access the internet. Look at me now.”

As he spoke, Yang Weiyi pulled an old Nokia phone out of his pocket.

"I think as long as I can make phone calls, that's fine."

Zhao Wenjun laughed and said, "President Yang, we need to keep up with the times, otherwise we won't be able to keep up with the pace of the bank."

Yang Weiyi finished his cigarette and left. Zhao Wenjun opened the window to let in some fresh air, but then lit another cigarette and stood by the window, looking at the lush trees outside.

In fact, he had already guessed who Fang Qingye wanted to use.

After getting off work, Fang Qingye still returned to the nursery. After eating, she would take Wangcai for a walk in the nursery. During this period, she went to get off work and left work on time every day. Sometimes she ate lunch at the bank's canteen, so she spent less time in the nursery.

Looking at the garden full of spring colors now, I feel much happier—it's better than staying in the bank office.

After wandering around for a while, Fang Qingye stood in front of the orchid greenhouse, looking at the various orchids inside. Remembering the meeting that afternoon, she took out her phone and dialed a number to Zhang Rong.

"What is Zhang Rong busy with?"

"Fang Xing, I'm still working overtime at the office."

"What kind of overtime?" "Making a PPT. There's a branch meeting on Friday, and now all branches are required to make a PPT presentation. Branch Manager Duan is too old to make one himself, and Xiao Zhang in the office is on maternity leave. Since no one knows how, I'm helping him with it," Zhang Rong replied on the phone.

"Why bother with a PPT? That's all just formalism! A written report is enough! Come to my nursery now, I have something to tell you," Fang Qingye said.

"Okay, I'll drive over right away."

Zhang Rong is the deputy branch manager of the Liulin Town branch, and it will take him 40 minutes to drive here. Fang Qingye was not in a hurry. She took Wangcai out and strolled along the riverbank for a while. It was already dark when they returned to the nursery.

Not long after, a car horn sounded at the gate, and a few minutes later Zhang Rong walked in.

"Come on, let's go to my office," Fang Qingye said.

The two went upstairs to the office and sat on the sofa. Zhang Rong asked, "Fang Xing, what did you want to see me about tonight?"

"This afternoon, the three of us bank managers met to discuss the preparations for establishing the Pingdong branch in Jinghai city," Fang Qingye said, getting straight to the point.

“I also think it’s necessary to establish a branch in the city center. The economic scale of Nanxin is still relatively small. I think only when we truly gain a foothold in Jinghai city center can our bank truly be called Jinghai Bank,” Zhang Rong said.

"Then how do you think one can establish oneself in Jinghai?" Fang Qingye asked again.

Zhang Rong didn't seem surprised and smiled, "To be honest, I've also thought about this issue. Our Jinghai Bank is also a small and micro bank. If we want to compete with the five major banks and credit unions, the key is to work hard on three aspects: convenience, inclusiveness, and personalization."

Zhang Rong spoke eloquently about his views, concluding with:
"Another thing is to strengthen the bank's internet infrastructure! Our bank's business is limited to the Jinghai area, which is also within the Jinghai area. Our scale cannot be compared with the five major banks, and our business outlets cannot be as widespread as those of the Postal Savings Bank and the Credit Union. Therefore, we can only rely on the internet."

“Reality is finite, but cyberspace is infinite, especially with the rise of smartphones,” Zhang Rong said with a smile.

Fang Qingye nodded after listening, and then said, "Zhang Rong, I plan to put you in charge of setting up the Pingdong branch."

"Huh? Really?" Zhang Rong was both surprised and delighted. Fang Qingye had just asked him about the idea of ​​the Pingdong branch, and he had vaguely guessed that it was possible, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"This is just my personal idea, and it hasn't been presented at the bank president's meeting yet, so you need to keep it a secret," Fang Qingye instructed.

"Don't worry, Fang Xing," Zhang Rong quickly replied, "I will definitely do my best and live up to your expectations!"

"I believe that if you put the same energy you used to drink yourself into a stomach hemorrhage in Shandong Province, what couldn't you do?" Fang Qingye joked. "But let me make it clear, I'm not saying I'm asking you to drink yourself into a stomach hemorrhage again, okay?"

"I'll think it over."

The two chatted for a while longer before Zhang Rong left in a hurry. As soon as he got out of the nursery and sat in his car, he couldn't wait to call his girlfriend.

"Ding Ying, where are you?"

"At home."

"Come out and wait for me at the entrance of the residential area. I have something to tell you."

"Weren't you working overtime? What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?" Ding Ying asked on the other end of the phone.

You'll find out when you come out!

"it is good."

Zhang Rong drove to the vicinity of the county meat processing plant's staff quarters and saw Ding Ying standing at the entrance of the residential area.

Waving, Ding Ying ran over and sat in the passenger seat of the car: "Zhang Rong, what's up? You seem so happy."

“I had just come from Fang Qingye’s nursery when he told me that I was in charge of setting up the Pingdong branch.”
