No one dislikes having their work capability acknowledged, especially Qin Shaohua who had always been ostracized in his previous job, otherwise, he wouldn't have left Yanlu Shoe Machine to come to Lingyan Shoe Factory.
Qin Shaohua wasn't the kind of person everyone loves, after all, a person's talent always invites jealousy.
In fact, those who believed the export department was the best-managed department in the company were probably only Yan Ling himself.
Other people, since they had given Qin Shaohua the nickname "half a boss," likely had some issues with him.
Otherwise, there would be no reason not to simply call him Manager Qin and instead refer to him as "half a boss."
Yan Ling had just not mentioned to Qin Shaohua that, in his opinion, their department was currently the most efficient and best-managed department in the company.
