Chapter 783 - Wang Guofeng’s Improvement

Translator: Thyaeria

Seated before his office desk, Wang Guofeng looked at the document of the project before him with his assistant, Luo Ran standing before him.

Luo Ran was still as usual, with a smile on his face as if nothing can change him.

It’s hard to get angry with Luo Ran because of how he has been maintaining a good temper. However, Wang Guofeng was disgusted by that. Because the more Luo Ran puts on an act, the more he won’t be able to find something on Luo Ran.

On the contrary, he has many things in Luo Ran’s hands.

Slamming the document on the desk, Wang Guofeng roared, “What’s the meaning of this?”

The project was approved without his acknowledgement. Although Wang Guofeng knew that he was merely a figurehead, he still seemed unhappy.

Shrugging his shoulders, Luo Ran replied, “Ms. Rangure instructed me to get the project down last night. The content is simple, the Medicine Deity Corporation will work with Cambell Pharmaceutical Company to establish a Chinese medicine factory. We will also use a combined investment method to increase the speed, with the two companies taking out ¥200,000,000 each to acquire the largest Chinese medicine factory in the country.”

Luo Ran’s attitude and tone was just right, as if he was discussing the rationality of this matter from Wang Guofeng’s point of view.

However, Wang Guofeng did not appreciate it and knitted his brows, “I don’t agree to it! Why do we have to go into the Chinese medicine factory market? Do we really have to follow Su Tao’s path? The Medicine Deity Corporation has our development plan, and we can’t always be following behind someone.”

Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Luo Ran sighed, “Chairman, I can understand you, but you’re well aware of the Medicine Deity Corporation’s current situation. The control of the enterprise is in Rangure’s hand, and she’s the actual one making decisions, while I can only follow her instructions.”

Raising his head abruptly, Wang Guofeng looked at Luo Ran coldly and asked, “Are you trying to suppress me with Rangure? Do you really want to be a puppet in the hands of a foreign woman?”

Luo Ran was briefly stunned as he never expected that Wang Guofeng would suddenly say those words. Looking at Wang Guofeng cautiously, he replied, “Chairman, please calm down. If it’s not for Ms. Rangure, it won’t be possible for you to be Medicine Deity Corporation’s chairman, and I won’t have the opportunity to be your assistant. Furthermore, the Medicine Deity Corporation won’t be able to do so well now.”

Luo Ran was cautious in his words, preventing himself giving Wang Guofeng anything to be used against him. While he’s trying not to provoke Wang Guofeng, he’s also trying to display his loyalty to Rangure.

Through this period of operation, the Medicine Deity Corporation has been gradually going into the right path. Under Rangure’s connection, there’s a large number of funds going into Cambell Pharmaceutical Company, and at the same time, they’ve also displayed a decent result after entering the financial market as the stock price is constantly rising.

Due to the fact that the Three Flavour International wasn’t listed, Wang Guofeng’s net worth has exceeded Su Tao in terms of market.

“But my authority is gradually being shaved off!” Wang Guofeng said coldly. He knew that Luo Ran was a spy that Rangure planted beside him. Hence, he's trying to probe Luo Ran by speaking those words.

“You’re the Chairman, and you should get used to putting down your authority.” Luo Ran smiled as he continued, “Otherwise, why would we have hired so many executives?”

At this moment, Luo Ran was feeling excited in his heart as he could hear dissatisfaction from Wang Guofeng’s words. If he passes this to Rangure, then she will be informed that Wang Guofeng has a different heart. If Wang Guofeng was removed, then wouldn’t that mean that he will have a high chance of replacing Wang Guofeng?

“You have disappointed me!” Wang Guofeng swept his sharp gaze and continued, “The Medicine Deity Corporation belongs to the Medicine King Valley, and now that it’s being controlled by a woman, you don’t have any comment about it?”

Upon listening to those words, Luo Ran’s expression changed, “I’m someone without ambitions.”

“You’re only someone who knows how to act well!” Wang Guofeng waved his hand, while Luo Ran ignored those words and left the office.

As Wang Guofeng slowly stood up and looked at the factory acquiring plan, he sighed inwardly. To be honest, he’s not against this project, but he feels uncomfortable having Su Tao walking ahead of him.

He hates following behind someone, and no matter what he does, he will only be the second, and he can never become the first.

However, there’s no issue with this project in general. The Cambell Pharmaceutical Company is backed by Neuer Pharmaceutical Conglomerate, and by acquiring a factory in China, their market will not only be limited to China, but also the international market through Neuer Pharmaceutical Conglomerate.

The Medicine Deity Corporation has been communicating with Iwata Chinese Medicine Research Facility, and Wang Guofeng knows that there’s a massive profit behind this market. Even as a distributor, he can earn a decent profit annually. If he has his own products, it will bring even more profits.

However, Wang Guofeng’s main concern is to face off Su Tao and his Three Flavour Medicine once again. Wang Guofeng did not know that through numerous defeats with Su Tao, he no longer had the confidence to compete with Su Tao. After all, no one will want to be an eternal failure.

Wang Guofeng did not have any confidence in his heart, especially after knowing that the Three Flavour Hall’s branch had forged their reputation in just a few months with his junior brother in it. It’s now known as the best TCM pharmacy in Beijing, it even shows signs of surpassing the Wang Family’s Pharmacy that has been passing down for generations.

The Wang Family’s Pharmacy was his pride, and who knows if it will be replaced by Three Flavour Hall a few years later.

If that’s the case, then he can be said to be a complete failure.

At this moment, his phone rang as Wang Guofeng picked it with his brows knitted and sneered, “I never expected that he would be so confident to report to you about it barely five minutes after leaving my office.”

Rangure was briefly stunned before she smiled, “I was also somewhat surprised. Logically speaking, you shouldn’t be that stupid. You’re not happy with Luo Ran?”

Wang Guofeng knew that Rangure is smart enough to know what he’s thinking. The reason why he displayed his emotions to Luo Ran is to get the latter to reveal his fox tail. Wang Guofeng was confident that if Rangure had to choose one person between him and Luo Ran, she would definitely pick him.

The reason is simple, he has a wide connection in the TCM industry, and it’s something Luo Ran’s lacking.

Rangure won’t pick a loyal yet useless dog. Only a ferocious hound will know how to survive in the tough world.

“Luo Ran already has his own thoughts, and a supervisor should be impartial without any desires. It’s inappropriate for him to stay in this position, and I only hope that you can understand that.” Wang Guofeng smiled.

After a brief silence of a few seconds, Rangure smiled, “I’ll get Luo Ran to disappear when I found the right person. Your wittiness this time is pretty good, and you’ve successfully recovered some of my confidence for you. But I will have to depend on your performance on the Chinese medicine factory project to see if I can continue to have hopes in you.”

“Don’t worry about it!” Wang Guofeng smiled confidently as he went on, “I have connections with all the Chinese medicine related hospitals in the country. As long as we can make our products, we won’t have an issue in terms of sales channels in the country. At the same time, I will also research Three Flavour Medicine’s products and suppress them. Putting it in a nutshell, we will make whatever they’re making. We’re all getting the prescriptions from books, so there won’t be too much difference in terms of effects. As long as we have enough products and sales channels, we will definitely be able to destroy Three Flavour Medicine.”

Wang Guofeng had acknowledged this plan in his heart, and the reason why he reacted so differently before Luo Ran was just to trick the latter. It’s a pity that Luo Ran thought too much and revealed a flaw.

Wang Guofeng is no longer a physician, but a businessman. Hence, he had formed a keen sense when it comes to business projects.

Now that he has investments, he can naturally give it a try. In the face of money, he can even toss aside his so-called dignity.

At this moment, Wang Guofeng and Rangure’s declaration had put Luo Ran in an awkward position because Luo Ran did not accurately point out Wang Guofeng’s genuine thoughts. This way, he will lose his value as a spy to Rangure.

Hanging up his call with Wang Guofeng, a smile appeared on Rangure’s lips. Wang Guofeng has finally grown up, and it meant that her eyesight was right.

Although Wang Guofeng was defeated by Su Tao several times, he had found his orientation through his failure. At the same time, he now knows how to fight back against his enemy.

In the past, Wang Guofeng was akin to a sharp spear, but he has become mature and reserved. He’s now cunning and scheming that even someone who can act as well as Luo Ran was tricked by him.

Wang Guofeng was the seed that she had her eyes on, and watching the seed maturing, she naturally felt satisfied in her heart.

However, Luo Ran had lost all her meaning as a supervisor. However, Rangure did not intend to get rid of Wang Guofeng’s cautiousness. Giving a call to Luo Ran, she ordered, “Starting tomorrow, your working post will change. Your new post will be the Medicine Deity Corporation’s Executive CEO.”

Holding onto his phone, Luo Ran’s phone trembled emotionally, “Thank you, Ms. Rangure!”

Rangure’s order was equivalent to giving him the position that originally belonged to his senior brother, Bai Fan. Although his position is still a rank lower than Wang Guofeng in the company, he has more substantial authority.

In his heart, Luo Ran felt that it was because his ‘report’ was effective. He did not know that Rangure only felt that it’s no longer effective to plant Luo Ran beside Wang Guofeng. Hence, she chose to set them against one another so that it’s easier for the overall controller like her to maintain balance.

She had put a lot of effort into the Medicine Deity Corporation, and it has already been turned into another force only inferior to Cambell Pharmaceutical Company. Hence, she can’t afford any mistake over her control on the Medicine Deity Corporation.
