Chapter 547 Subtle Changes in Personnel Adjustments

While Chen Danlu was busy contacting classmates and building up his network of contacts to make a name for himself, Fang Qingye had already returned to Nanxin with the two of them.

After resting overnight, he called the two bank presidents to his office for a meeting as soon as he arrived at work the next morning.

Zhao Wenjun received a call from Fang Qingye yesterday, asking him to stay in Nanxin today for a bank president's meeting.

He had initially thought Fang Qingye was informing them about attending the forum in Yanjing, but to his surprise, Fang Qingye's first words at the meeting were:
"I found a candidate to serve as the head of the Pudong branch. His name is Chen Danlu. I met him at a meeting in Yanjing. I also appointed him as the vice president of Jinghai Bank and concurrently as the head of the Pudong branch, so that he can better play his role."

Fang Qingye then briefly introduced the two of them how she met Chen Danlu during a meeting in Yanjing, as well as Zhao Danlu's personal background.

A graduate of Tsinghua University's School of Economics and Management, a returnee from overseas, and someone who has worked in an investment bank in the United States—his credentials are truly dazzling.

Zhao Wenjun immediately stated, "President Fang, it's a great thing for us to have such an outstanding talent working at Jinghai Bank! I welcome him."

After speaking, he glanced casually at Deng Hui beside him:
Haha, your competitor has arrived!
A complex expression flashed across Deng Hui's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "I agree. He will definitely be able to do a good job at the Pudong branch."

Fang Qingye nodded and said, "Then it's settled. As for the division of labor among the three vice presidents, Chen Danlu will mainly be responsible for the work of the Pudong branch. In addition, the headquarters' online banking department will be abolished, and the bank will establish a digital finance department, which will be under his management. Online banking, mobile banking, and e-commerce businesses will all be transferred to this department. As for the department head, Wang, the head of the online banking department, will be the head for the time being. The specific plan will be formulated by you, President Deng, together with the human resources department."

“Okay.” Deng Hui.

"Also, the Science and Technology Information Department has been placed under Chen Danlu's jurisdiction, which will lighten your burden, Deng Xing," Fang Qingye said with a smile.

Deng Hui nodded without saying anything.

"In addition, I have decided to appoint two vice presidents to the Pudong branch. As I have told you before, as one of the pilot banks for internet finance, this work is mainly concentrated in the Pudong branch, so having an extra vice president will reduce Chen Danlu's workload," Fang Qingye added.

"What about the candidates for the two vice presidents?" Zhao Wenjun asked tentatively.

"It's not decided yet, let's discuss it."

“I think Wei Hang is capable of the job. Whether he was the deputy branch manager of Liulin branch or in the preparation for the establishment of Pudong branch, he performed exceptionally well. He is reliable and hardworking,” Zhao Wenjun immediately suggested.

“Okay, let Wei Hang be in charge of the office, human resources, finance and other support departments,” Fang Qingye replied, then looked at Deng Hui, “There’s also a vice president position, President Deng, you’re in charge of human resources, who do you think is suitable?”

Deng Hui really wanted to recommend her junior, Wei Huaquan, who was working in the credit department. He was very capable, but unfortunately, he had only been working for a little over two years and lacked experience and qualifications, especially since it was a key branch of the Pudong branch.

I don't know how Fang Qingye would react if I brought it up, but Zhao Wenjun would definitely be the first to object.

“The position of deputy branch manager of Pudong branch is very important. To be honest, I don’t think any of our young cadres are qualified for the position through open recruitment,” Deng Hui offered her opinion.

“Okay.” Fang Qingye nodded: “Have the Human Resources Department issue a recruitment notice as soon as possible. Chen Danlu should be involved in the application process. We need to find him an assistant, and make sure he is satisfied.”

"Ok."

The three discussed recent work, and just as Fang Qingye was about to adjourn the meeting, Deng Hui said, "There's one more thing. Now that Wei Hang has been transferred to the Pudong branch as deputy branch manager, who will take over as deputy branch manager of the Liulin branch?"

"Do you have a suitable candidate?" Fang Qingye asked.

“I think Wei Huaquan in the credit department is capable of handling this job. He’s young, highly educated, has strong work skills, and is quick to learn new things,” Deng Hui quickly offered her opinion.

"She's too young! She's only been working for a little over two years. Who can she possibly intimidate?!" Zhao Wenjun glanced at her and said.

"We value ability, not seniority!" Deng Hui retorted bluntly. "Our bank has expanded rapidly in the past two years. If we don't take extraordinary measures to cultivate these college graduates and give them responsibilities, when will they be able to stand on their own?!" "If that's the case, I think Wang Yuan from the risk control department is also quite good. He graduated from Anhui Audit University, which is a key university, and he joined a year earlier than Xiao Wei," Zhao Wenjun countered.

"Wang Yuan is too careless in his work!"

"Let's not argue about this anymore." Seeing the two subordinates arguing, Fang Qingye stopped them in time: "How about this, let Xiao Wei go to Liulin Branch as Assistant Branch Manager, which is equivalent to Deputy Branch Manager, but without a rank for the time being, just like I did back in Dongfang Bank. What do you think?"

"That's a great idea!" Zhao Wenjun immediately agreed. "It's not abrupt at all, and it trains people. We can handle similar situations like this in the future!"

He's just doing the job of a deputy bank manager, but he's not getting any benefits.

Deng Hui muttered to herself.

However, since it was Fang Qingye who suggested it, I couldn't really refute it.

Moreover, I heard that this was indeed the case when Fang Qingye was traveling in the East!
After the meeting, a decision was made, and all that was left was to execute it. Fang Qingye didn't need to worry about that. If the employees below couldn't even do this simple thing, then they should just get out!
However, the two vice presidents' performance today was quite interesting.

Fang Qingye was sitting on the sofa thinking when she saw Hu Lingling, who was taking notes, preparing to return to her office, so she called her back.

"Hu Lingling, did you notice anything during the meeting just now?"

"It's nothing! Fang Xing, your decision is brilliant! Zhao Xing and Deng Xing fully support it! We will carry it out unconditionally!" Hu Lingling said with a smile.

"Stop flattering them!" Fang Qingye's face hardened. "I admit they'll comply unconditionally, but you're saying they don't have their own ideas? 100% support? I don't believe it."

"President Fang, you truly have keen insight! Actually, I think President Deng doesn't quite agree with it."

"Oh, you said?"

"Fang Xing, please don't tell Deng Xing what I'm about to say! She'll definitely make things difficult for you if she finds out!" Hu Lingling put on a pitiful look.

"You're afraid that Bank Manager Deng will make things difficult for you? Aren't you afraid that I'll make things difficult for you?!"

"President Fang, you won't give me the clothes; you'll transfer me away or fire me yourself!"

Ah.
He speaks with great eloquence and sophistication.

"Go ahead and tell me, I won't tell anyone else." Fang Qingye leaned back on the sofa and crossed her legs.

Hu Lingling sat on the sofa next to him and began to analyze the situation seriously.

"Actually, after Director Deng came to our bank, everyone thought she would take over as director! Because she is capable, highly educated, a master's graduate from a 211 university, the most highly educated person in our Jinghai Bank! And she is young, 10 years younger than Director Zhao, Director Zhao can't compete with her."

"Am I younger than Deng Hui?" Fang Qingye countered.

"I know you don't like doing these trivial things, you prefer fishing and drinking tea, so you'll definitely give up the position of bank president in the future and only serve as an executive director, managing the big things!"

You might as well just say I like to be lazy.
Fang Qingye's lips twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything.

"Go on."
