After waiting for a while, none of the ten interns were willing to stand up and nominate themselves to Meng Kexin’s surprise. Meng Kexin curled her lips and said, “Since everyone is so humble, let’s change it to a vote. The person with the most votes will be elected as your team leader.”
She had already decided that she had to let these interns control themselves. She did not want to be the team leader. After all, one of the ten people would definitely be her superior in the future.
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Yingying said, “Miss Meng, I want to recommend Student Feng Qing to be the leader of our team.”
With that, she even gave Feng Qing a very kind smile. Feng Qing was expressionless. How could she not understand what Lu Yingying was thinking?
This was the Xie Corporation after all. To ordinary people, it was already very good that they could obtain the chance to intern here. It was almost like they were walking on thin ice. Once she became the team leader, it meant that she had more responsibilities and obligations. It was only right to do well, but if she didn’t do well, it would be all her responsibility. On the surface, Lu Yingying seemed to be praising her, but behind her back, she was filled with cunning and ruthlessness.
Seeing that someone had suggested it, Meng Kexin looked at Feng Qing and then asked the others for their opinion. “Alright, those who agree with Feng Qing as the team leader, please raise your hands.”
In an instant, the rest of the people raised their hands. Feng Qing smiled bitterly in her heart. She knew that she would not escape from being the team leader. What did it mean to be the team leader? It was purely an unappealing job. However, these were all her thoughts. Her face was still filled with a flowery expression.
“Since everyone voted for me, I won’t refuse. In the next month, I will be the leader of this team. Please cooperate and support me.” Feng Qing said.
The corners of Lu Yingying’s mouth curled up into a good-looking arc. Did Feng Qing think that she could get more benefits from this after she became the team leader? Could it be that she really thought that these people had sincerely chosen her to be the team leader? As long as there were any problems in the team in the future, she would be the number one responsible person. Her rights and responsibilities were equivalent.
After establishing Feng Qing’s position as the team leader, Meng Kexin assigned them missions. The first mission Feng Qing’s team received was to be in charge of an acquisition project. They were all surprised that the interns had accepted such a job as soon as they entered the Xie Corporation. They thought that they had to start from cleaning up and pouring tea for their leaders. Moreover, they had not graduated and had no work experience. They only had a theoretical foundation. How could the higher ups rest assured by letting the interns deal with such things?
Feng Qing flipped open the information on the acquisition project that Meng Kexin had given them. She finished reading dozens of pages of information in a few minutes. This acquisition project was not big. The subsidiary company of the Xie Corporation, Tianhua Energy, wanted to buy the Chenghai aluminum mine at a price of five billion, and their team’s mission was to be responsible for sorting out the materials and feasibility research report of this project.
Feng Qing said, “There are a total of five industries that are about to go bankrupt in the Chenghai aluminum mine, and Tianhua Energy has already sent many people to look for the Chenghai aluminum mine for negotiation and conduct field inspection a few days ago. From the information, I think we can use the weekend to go to Chenghai City for inspection and figure out the details to see if these five industries are worth five billion.”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Yingying said, “The Chenghai aluminum mine is called the aluminum mine. But in reality, the aluminum mine has long been mined out. However, I heard that another coal mine was explored two years ago. Now, the entire mine is changing from aluminum mine to coal mine. However, compared to the other coal production bases in Xia country, this coal mine in Chenghai is really too small. It’s not competitive at all, so the benefits recently are not very good. It’s even in a state where it can’t make ends meet.”
Speaking up to this point, she deliberately looked at Feng Qing and continued, “I don’t think it’s time to waste time on field research now. Moreover, what can we do after we do a field research? Even those experts can’t understand it. How could us, the interns, understand after conducting a research? Therefore, the most important thing now is not to go on a field research, but to evaluate the production capacity of the Chenghai aluminum mine and form the information.”
Hearing Lu Yingying’s different opinion, Feng Qing did not even respond. She looked at the others and asked, “Does anyone want to go to the Chenghai aluminum mine for a field trip?”
The interns looked at each other. Lu Yingying and Feng Qing were at odds with each other, making it difficult for them as they were caught in the middle. For a moment, no one knew what to do. In the end, Liu Yan said, “Qingqing, I’ll go. Anyway, I have nothing going on this weekend.”
