From abandoned baby to CEO

When the first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone on the earth, Sun Xue had already appeared at the stadium project site.

Today is a very special day. The project was completed ahead of schedule, the project acceptance has been completed, and the quality meets the acceptance standards.

An hour later, Vice Mayor Wang will lead relevant provincial leaders to attend the project completion ceremony.

She had received news from Vice Mayor Wang that the leadership lineup attending the ceremony was magnificent, including the director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, the director of the National Games Preparatory Committee, the director of the Provincial Sports Bureau and other relevant leaders.

To be honest, she was still a little nervous.

She stood at the main entrance, wearing a well-fitting dark blue business suit, looking energetic and capable.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves.

Standing behind her were Wang Ke, Pei Shaojie and the entire core team of Xuehua Construction. Everyone was wearing brand new work clothes, with a look of nervousness and uncontrollable pride on their faces.

"All areas have been inspected and everything is ready. We are just waiting for the leaders to arrive!"

Wang Ke's eyes were like torches, and his tone was full of confidence. "There wasn't even a leaf on the scene."

Sun Xue nodded with satisfaction. She turned around and looked at everyone, her eyes scanning every face present.

These people in front of her had fought side by side with her during the financial crisis, stood firm with her in the storm of rumors, and jumped into the mud with her to fight when the flood came.

Her eyes were slightly red. Without them, there would be no success of today's project.

Her voice was clear and calm: "Today we represent not only Xuehua Company, but also the expectations of tens of millions of citizens in Quancheng City. Every drop of sweat we have shed has led to this moment. Thank you all for your hard work!"

As soon as Sun Xue finished speaking, applause broke out from the crowd.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the vehicles carrying Vice Mayor Wang and a group of leaders slowly arrived, and the leaders walked into the stadium one after another.

Sun Xue and the backbone of the company warmly welcomed the arrival of the leaders. Deputy Mayor Wang, who was walking in front, nodded to Sun Xue.

"Dear leaders, please look..."

As the main speaker, Sun Xue's voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of every leader through the microphone.

She has a loud voice and a neither humble nor arrogant attitude. Standing in the sun, she exudes vitality.

"We named this gymnasium the Heart of Spring. The design concept is inspired by the natural imagery of Quancheng City, where 'every household has a spring and every household grows weeping willows.' The wavy curve of the roof symbolizes the flow of spring water, while also achieving optimal acoustics, lighting, and ventilation."

"Leaders, please look over there..."

The leaders looked in the direction of her finger, which led to the empty interior of the stadium. She continued her introduction:

"The stands can accommodate 50,000 spectators. All seats are made of environmentally friendly materials, are ergonomic, and offer a wide range of viewing angles. Each seat is equipped with an independent air supply system."

The director of the Provincial Sports Bureau nodded slightly, his eyes full of appreciation. "The details are very thoughtful. How will the evacuation problem be solved in such a large venue?"

Wang Ke stepped forward at the right moment and took over the topic, saying, "I am the chief designer of this project. I will answer this question for you leaders."

Wang Ke was in high spirits, and he exuded a strong aura as soon as he opened his mouth.

"We've adopted a multi-level diversion evacuation design, drawing on the experience of large international venues, to ensure that even if the venue is full, all personnel can be safely evacuated within 10 minutes. The emergency passages and sign systems are all intelligent and linked in real time with the fire and security centers."

He pointed precisely at several key points with his gestures, and blurted out the data professionally and accurately.

Deputy Mayor Wang's face remained expressionless, but the curve of his eyes softened a little.

After hearing Wang Ke's introduction, the Director of the Sports Bureau nodded with satisfaction, "That's very thoughtful."

After visiting the main stadium, Sun Xue led everyone to the athletes' village, where service facilities include accommodation, canteens, medical care and entertainment.

She pushed open the door of a model apartment and introduced it, "The room has full internet access, the best air conditioning available, 24-hour hot water, and especially this bed..."

She stroked the mattress gently and said, "This is customized according to the advice of sports medicine experts. It provides different support modules based on the physical characteristics of athletes and can effectively relieve post-game fatigue."

The relevant leaders were very interested in this and studied it with great interest. They praised, "Mr. Sun, your company is very thoughtful about the details. Very good."

Sun Xue added, "The design of our athletes' village is based on the concepts of health, comfort and convenience."

Sun Xue's words made the leaders on the scene nod their heads continuously.

Deputy Mayor Wang, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke with a peaceful smile on his face:

"We want to host more than just one National Games; we also want to leave behind high-quality assets that can serve athletes and residents long-term. Xuehua Company is thinking very long-term in this regard."

After saying that, Deputy Mayor Wang's gaze fell on Sun Xue's face.

His eyes were full of satisfaction and a hint of pride.

Sun Xue's performance did not disappoint her. Not only did she withstand the pressure and complete the project ahead of schedule with high quality, she also became the first company to complete all the projects under construction for this National Games.

Such performance not only brought honor to her, but also brought glory to the city of Quanzhou.

After the inspection, the atmosphere at the summary symposium held in the temporary conference room was very lively.

The director of the Provincial Sports Bureau spoke first: "I have visited many sports venues, but what I saw today exceeded my expectations. Not only is the hardware first-class, but more importantly, the concept is advanced. Every detail reflects humanistic care and technological wisdom. Quancheng City has set a high benchmark for the construction of future large-scale event venues!"

The director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission took over the topic: "Especially in the current economic environment, it is not easy for Xuehua Construction to complete such a large and comprehensive project with such high quality and efficiency."

Finally, everyone's eyes turned to Vice Mayor Wang.

She cleared her throat and slowly scanned the room, her gaze finally landing on Sun Xue. At that moment, her eyes gleamed with undisguised admiration, satisfaction, and a sense of pride that came from a heavy burden.

"Dear leaders..." Her voice was steady and powerful.

"A year ago, when we handed over such an important project to Xuehua Construction and Sun Xue, there was no shortage of skepticism from the outside world. Can a young company and a young female leader shoulder such a heavy responsibility?"

The meeting room was completely silent...

"During this period, we have jointly weathered the impact of the financial crisis, the storm of external doubts, and even the test of a torrential rainstorm."

Deputy Mayor Wang's voice rose slightly. "However, Sun Xue and her Xuehua team have proven themselves with their strength! Not only did they withstand the pressure, but they also completed the task ahead of schedule with outstanding quality!"

She stood up, walked towards Sun Xue, and shook her hand tightly. "Xiao Sun, you have lived up to the trust of the Municipal Party Committee and Government, and you have lived up to the expectations of the people of Quancheng! Today, you have brought honor to our city of Quancheng. This high-quality, high-tech, and beautiful arena is the most perfect answer you and your team have given to this city! On behalf of the Municipal Party Committee and Government, thank you!"

The applause was like thunder and lasted for a long time. The provincial leaders stood up and congratulated Sun Xue and her team.

Sun Xue's eyes moistened instantly. All the hardships, pressure, sleepless nights and sweat were all worth it at this moment. She bowed slightly, her voice choked but clear:

"Thank you, Vice Mayor Wang, and thank you to all the leaders for your recognition. This honor belongs to every employee of Xuehua Construction who works day and night, to all our partners who support us, and most importantly, to the Quancheng Municipal Government for giving us this opportunity and trusting us!"

She turned around and looked at Wang Ke and the team members behind her, whose eyes also had redness. No words were needed, everything was self-explanatory.

The National Games flame has not yet been lit, but the glory of Xuehua Construction has already bloomed brilliantly at this moment.
