4196 Change of Policy
After his father committed suicide, many things were not actually what Robert wanted to do.
After all, according to their superior family's style of doing things, after sensing the threat, it stands to reason that Zhang Peng should have been killed directly.
However, the former patriarch kept Zhang Peng and even paid him an amazing reward. Why?
Because of the lack of talent!
As the founding family of Calum Bell, their great ancestors have given them their current status, but these upper families cannot ensure that they can produce talents in each generation to maintain the development of the family.
Although they are strong enough to give them the opportunity to try and make mistakes many times, they will not fall directly after one or two generations.
But if there is no talent for a long time, no matter how strong the strength is, it will be squandered cleanly.
This is also the main reason why Karen Bell has many high-ranking families and completely declined after a few generations.
In fact, the development of the Saul family has not been very good in these generations.
The first two generations of patriarchs were mediocre, but in the generation of Robert’s father, aside from the eldest son who was not good at work and the third son who was not doing a proper job, Robert’s father, as the second son, was still capable of a little, and it was basically more than enough to keep the family business.
What was maddening was that Robert's father soon discovered that there was not even a single person capable of taking on major responsibilities in the entire family, which made most of the work require him to do it by himself, and no one could help him. effective allocation.
By the way, thanks to this, Zhang Peng was able to emerge from the former patriarch.
Otherwise, according to the style of the upper class, if there is someone who can use it, it is impossible for Zhang Peng to turn.
At this moment, Robert is undoubtedly facing the same problems as his father, and even because of his father's sudden suicide, Robert's current situation is even worse than his father's time.
Now, he desperately needs talents who can share his worries. For this reason, even Uncle Gao Wen, who is not doing his job properly, was lured by him to come and work.
Under this premise, how can Zhang Peng be a real talent who can help him a lot?
Therefore, in this situation, Robert could not use repressive methods like his father did and continue to oppress Zhang Peng.
For this reason, he also quietly changed his approach to dealing with Zhang Peng.
Back then, when he was first received from the Sol family, Zhang Peng talked from time to time, which relieved his originally anxious heart, and even had a great impression of Zhang Peng for a time.
But Robert was never stupid. After he got used to the new environment and his emotions calmed down, as time passed, did Robert really not think about why Zhang Peng talked to him frequently?
how is this possible?
In fact, he had already guessed in his heart.
After combining with his father's evaluation of Zhang Peng, Robert undoubtedly understood better.
Approaching him with a purpose and having a good relationship with him, this approach inevitably made Robert a little unhappy.
But from another point of view, in today's society, it's really hard to find someone who doesn't have any purpose at all. Everyone does things with a certain purpose. This approach, in itself Actually there is no problem.
In addition, Zhang Peng has never done anything to harm him, and even helped him a lot.
Therefore, Robert did not have a clear disgust towards Zhang Peng.
After this incident, Robert had already made it clear in his heart that he would change his strategy, instead of taking tough measures to control Zhang Peng, he would instead use humane means with the other party.
Judging from the current situation, Zhang Peng, a grass-roots man, is actually inseparable from their Sol family in a short period of time, and he still has to do his best to help him.
When Zhang Peng has accumulated enough strength and plans to break away and establish his own business, Robert is estimated to have completely controlled the Sol family.
When that time comes, Zhang Peng is going to leave, so let him go, just to sell the other party a favor.
The former patriarch is dead, and the past is gone, and no one wants to mention it again.
Facing Robert's favor, Zhang Peng had no other choice but to accept it.
Under this premise, Robert specially brought Zhang Peng to the secret meeting with Huo Qiguang and Frances before.
While he wanted to show his trust in him and change his mind through this move, Robert actually had another purpose in it.
That is to test Zhang Peng to see if the other party will betray him.
If there is no change in the other party, it means that Zhang Peng is still credible for the time being, and Robert can promote him to the accompanying secretary with more peace of mind.
After that, it was only a week later. For Robert, a very important day has come, that is, the Saul family will have a report at the end of each quarter.
The report meeting is mainly divided into two parts, one part is for the family members of the Sol family who hold important positions in various departments of Karen Bell, and let them each make a work report.
The other part is the report on the family business. To put it more bluntly, it tells you whether you have made money or lost money.
In the past, the Sol family was more concerned about the former.
But this time, due to the big changes within the family, all the clan members are now more concerned about the latter.
When the former patriarch committed suicide, it was not far from the report meeting at the end of the quarter.
During this period of time, under the premise that other high-ranking families continue to move, it is difficult for Robert to fully control the family industry. Therefore, this quarter, the Saul family's industry has experienced a substantial decline in profits and even losses, which are all expected. among the things.
Even family members who don't care about this piece of work on weekdays would not naively think that this quarter can still maintain a good income.
The focus now is to see whether the industry of their Sol family can stabilize in the next two quarters.
However, what they didn't expect was that, although the income of other family industries had fallen sharply, the part of the industry that had been managed by Robert before, even in this extraordinary period, still made a very dazzling performance. The performance and its income directly swept the top five of all the industries of the Sol family.
This report is enough to prove Robert's management ability more thoroughly.
At this moment, Robert could clearly feel that his position in the Sol family had become more stable.
This also allowed Robert to gradually shift his energy to his status as a member of parliament.
In the previous meeting of the House of Lords, due to the lack of self-care within the family, out of low-key, Robert directly served as a transparent person in the House of Lords.
Now that the family is stable, it is time for him, the new Senator Sol, to show his presence.
At the latest meeting, Robert's sudden remarks made many members of the upper-level family conjecture in their hearts.
Because the proposal that he expressed his support for at that time was put forward by Huo Qiguang, which asked to improve the treatment of retired soldiers!
