Li Ronghua was lectured by Li Hongxing and was in no mood to say anything to Li Jiawei. Since his elder brother Li Hongxing had already said that he didn't want him to interfere with Jiawei's business investment, his thoughts would not change Jiawei's decision in any way.

Li Ronghua waved his hand, looking a little tired as he said, "I won't interfere with your decisions from now on. You can take the two children back. I'm tired today."

Li Jiawei pursed her lips slightly and nodded, "Okay, you and mom have a good rest, I won't disturb you any more."

After Li Jiawei led the two children out of the villa, Jing Qiu saw Li Ronghua get up and walk towards the study, so he hurriedly got up and followed.

She pressed on, "What did Big Brother say?"

Li Ronghua sighed and said helplessly: "Big brother obviously supports Jiawei."

Jing Qiu said angrily, "Brother always favors Jiawei. So what should we do now? If Li Yan and Jiawei confront each other, I'm worried..."

Although Jing Qiu didn't finish her words, Li Ronghua understood his wife's concerns. Li Yan was indeed not as good as Li Jiawei in business planning.

Li Ronghua tapped the tabletop with his fingers in frustration, unable to think of a good solution. After a long while, he said, "We can only take it one step at a time."

Li Yan returned to China a week later and rejoined the company as the chairman's special assistant.

For ordinary people in the workplace, this is already a good high position. After all, no matter where you are, being close to the leadership often gives you the advantage of "the one who is close to the water gets the moon first".

But Li Yan is not an ordinary worker. He was the general manager of the Li Group and is also the future successor of the Li Group.

Besides, he is not young anymore. If he were twenty years younger, he would have no objection to being the special assistant to the chairman.

But at his current age, this position is really embarrassing.

"Dad, your arrangement is too unreasonable!" After Li Yan learned about the company's position arrangement for him, he immediately rushed into Li Ronghua's office in a hurry.

Li Ronghua looked calmly at his son, who was scowling with anger, and asked, "If you don't want to be the chairman's special assistant, what position do you want to hold?"

Li Yan replied: "I want to go to the investment department and be responsible for overseas investment and strategic layout.

I have always been in charge of the Huanyu Auto project. Now that Huanyu Auto's R&D is at a critical stage, I am afraid that if I change the person in charge at this time, I am afraid that communication with Huanyu Auto will be disrupted."

After hearing what he said, Li Ronghua looked up and examined him carefully, then asked, "Li Yan, it's been a week since you came back. How much do you know about the group's current business?"

Li Yan was stunned by his father's question. He had been busy with social events all week since returning to China and hadn't had time to learn about the company's affairs. He said, "Dad, I just started working officially today. I haven't had time to learn about the group's business yet."

Li Ronghua just felt a little uncomfortable in his heart and took a few deep breaths. This was the first time he felt so intuitively the difference between the way Li Yan and Li Jiawei did things.

At this moment, he understood why Li Yan lost so badly in the competition with Li Jiawei.

Without warning, Li Ronghua suddenly grabbed the teacup on the desk and threw it at Li Yan, "Get out of here now and learn about the group's work assignments!"

It wasn't actually too painful when the teacup hit him, but Li Yan was still shocked at the moment the teacup hit him, because this was the first time his father had treated him like this, and he saw deep disappointment in Li Ronghua's eyes.

Li Yan didn't understand what he had said wrong to make his father so angry.

Seeing Li Yan standing there motionless, Li Ronghua roared, "What are you still doing here? Are you waiting for me to explain the company's current personnel arrangements?"

Li Yan looked at his father's face, which was flushed with anger. Fearing that he would pick up something else and throw it at him, he involuntarily took two steps back and said quickly, "Don't be angry. I'll go and find out right away."

Watching Li Yan leave the office, Li Ronghua slumped helplessly in his office chair, staring straight at the closed office door.

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the office door, and then Li Mingyu pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Ronghua quickly adjusted his mood, looked at Li Mingyu, and asked, "Mingyu, what's the matter?"

Li Mingyu placed the document in his hand on Li Ronghua's desk and said, "Chairman, this is this quarter's car sales analysis report. Please take a look."

Li Ronghua took the document and looked at it, then asked, "Why did car sales decline this quarter?"

Li Mingyu explained: "At present, we are mainly promoting newly developed models, but many of our sales staff have reported that many customers who are interested in purchasing our cars say that the price of this car is too high.

In the same price range, customers have many brands to choose from, and our cars don’t have much of an advantage.”

After hearing what Li Mingyu said, Li Ronghua rubbed his forehead irritably.

When the new model was about to be launched on the market, Li Jiawei arranged for the marketing and sales departments to conduct a survey in advance. The price given at that time was 30,000 yuan lower than the current price.

However, several directors at the time believed that this car used the company's newly developed engine, which was superior to other brands in performance and starting speed, and was also equipped with intelligent driving functions. They believed that these selling points would be very attractive to customers, so they disagreed with the pricing proposed by Li Jiawei.

At that time, Li Ronghua also agreed with the views of these directors, but now it seems that Li Jiawei's original proposal was correct.

Li Ronghua sighed and expressed his doubts, "Mingyu, our car has a faster start speed than similar models from other brands and is equipped with intelligent driving functions. Isn't this enough to attract potential customers?"

Li Mingyu thought for a moment and said, "Chairman, for consumers, buying a car is a major family expense. They pay more attention to comfort, practicality, and safety. Speed is certainly one of the considerations, but ordinary car owners are not racing drivers and do not have a particularly strong pursuit of speed.

As for intelligent driving, to be honest, this technology is not mature enough at present.

Moreover, many car owners do not know how to use the smart driving function at all, so for most consumers, smart driving is just a selling point that can attract customers to experience it, but it is difficult to make customers decide to buy our car based on this function alone.

So I think our pricing is a bit high.”

"How much higher do you think it is?" Li Ronghua asked.

Li Mingyu thought for a moment and replied, "According to market feedback, it's probably around 30,000 higher."

Li Ronghua was stunned when he heard the number Li Mingyu quoted. After a while, he slowly said, "The price you offered is the same as the one Jiawei proposed. It's a pity that her price was rejected by the board of directors."
