Lu Chengwen looked at the head of the Legal Department.
"If that were my idea."
The Legal Department head asked nervously, "Then should I get started on it?"
Lu Chengwen said, "No, the approach is right, but you can't make sweeping changes. Your department should take things slowly instead."
The Legal Department head froze for a second, then suddenly understood. "Oh! CEO Lu, you truly have extraordinary foresight, perceive the subtle, plan brilliantly, and consider everything thoroughly. With Tianxin welcoming you, Tianxin's people can finally rest easy. We've finally waited for the clouds to part and the moon to shine, for sweet rain after a long drought, for a golden house in a storm, for meat buns when starving, for free bottled water when dying of thirst..."
Lu Chengwen laughed heartily, stood up, and patted his back.
"Brother, we don't need to be so formal with each other! I just got here and I want to get things done, but I need my own people backing me up. I've known about you for a long time. I just didn't approach you because I was worried it might damage your standing among your colleagues. But now that we've taken the first step, we brothers need to do big things together. I'm at ease with you running the Legal Department. Bring in a few capable people first. As for those useless deadweights coasting by, we can deal with them little by little."
It was as though the Legal Department head had just heard the most wonderful praise in the world. His face turned bright red.
"CEO Lu! If you'd come here earlier, Tianxin wouldn't be what it is today! Don't worry about the Legal Department. If anything goes wrong, I'll bring you my head!"
The Legal Department head left, utterly satisfied.
