Chapter 202: Skipping the Ranks
A direct flight from Tokyo to Hong Kong that Kishimoto and his entourage took landed smoothly on the runway of Hong Kong International Airport. This means that the destination of their trip has arrived.
At the same time, Rumiko Kato, who came to the Hong Kong International Airport early to pick them up, was waiting for them with three points of nervousness.
Rumiko Kato knew that she was originally a graduate of an extremely ordinary university in Tokyo. Her assignment to Hong Kong as the head of the office was a valuable opportunity for training and promotion.
She cherished this hard-won opportunity and vowed to make some good achievements. Otherwise, not only will the top not be optimistic about her, but even the bottom will not obey her.
If you don't do well, you will be transferred back to Tokyo. As for whether there will be a chance to stay in the ministry, it's hard to say. Even if you stay at headquarters, you will be marginalized, and you will never have a chance to stand out in the future.
Rumiko Kato knows that if you want to fit in with a place, it is important to be able to hear the local language, and this is where she realizes her differentiating advantage.
After all, how many Japanese people in the entire hard gold group can hear Cantonese? Therefore, she also took the initiative and actively went to a Cantonese class out of her own pocket to study after work.
Rumiko Kato's enthusiasm is all from Asuka Ota. If it weren't for the fact that there was a high school graduate like Asuka Ota in front of her, but she was able to rise all the way up to become a role model and benchmark for the head of the department, she would not have had the idea of being able to improve again.
Ordinary people like themselves are satisfied when they enter a company and become a full-fledged member. Even if it is a blessing to get to the level of section chief, it will come to an end.
In the following days, as long as the company does not go bankrupt or lay off employees, it will be done peacefully until he retires. Even if I got married halfway through, I didn't think about returning to my family and stopped working.
As for those who are sent by the company to set up offices in major famous foreign cities, their resumes are not only good-looking, but also have a lot of relevant work experience.
Miyazaki Ryui, Kobayashi Kiyoshi, Sato Hidenaka, which one is not a graduate of a prestigious school? Only he is not a graduate of a prestigious school, but a woman.
Once a person has hope, then he must have the motivation to be aggressive. When Rumiko Kato faced opportunities and challenges, she did not choose to retreat, but resisted the pressure she had never had.
The pressure of her college entrance exams that year was not as great as it is now. She only sleeps four or five hours a day, even on weekends, and goes to learn English.
This is all because after she came here, she found that in Hong Kong, in addition to Cantonese, English is also very important.
If you feel that you are feeling low on energy, you must use energy-boosting drugs. For this reason, it has become one of the things that she has in her handbag at all times.
Her attitude towards her work is serious and responsible. At the very least, she thought that she couldn't live up to the trust that Chairman Masayoshi Kishimoto had placed in her.
At this time, Rumiko Kato, who was standing at the Hong Kong International Airport, also knew in her heart that the arrival of Masayoshi Kishimoto and others was not only an on-the-spot inspection of Hong Kong's investment environment, but also an assessment of her own work.
When Rumiko Kato saw them come out, she took the initiative to greet them. He put his hands on top of his knees and bowed deeply ninety degrees to Kishimoto in a very regular manner.
"Why do I see you thinner than you used to? Could it be that you're not used to eating here?" said Kishimoto casually.
"Nope. The food in Hong Kong is okay. Even if you are not used to their Cantonese food, there are many more authentic Japanese restaurants. This should be the weight loss caused by my hard work. Rumiko Kato said bluntly.
Kobayashi Qingzhi sneered and said, "It's our duty to work hard. Otherwise, why does the company pay you so much every month? What is the purpose of you taking it out and saying it in front of the president?
If you find it hard to be the head of an office, you can apply to be transferred back to the Tokyo headquarters to continue your general administrative work. ”
"I'm sorry, I lost my words. Rumiko Kato bowed deeply to Kobayashi Ziqing again, a ninety-degree bow. The reason why she did not dare to defend herself was that she was trained in the absolute obedience of subordinates to superiors in the Japanese company culture.
Moreover, she also knew that Kiyoshi Kobayashi was a well-known workaholic in the group company. Not only that, but his machismo was also well-known within the group of companies.
I remember clearly that the other party even publicly said at the internal meeting of the group company that women should get married and have children as early as possible and not come out to work.
The work is still left to the men to do. For this reason, Asuka Ota, who is the Minister of Administration, argued with him on the spot.
Since Kiyoshi Kobayashi was in charge of the hard gold investment company, except for the front desk lady, who is a woman, the rest of the staff are all male employees. Even his secretary is a man.
Rumiko Kato doesn't believe that President Masayoshi Kishimoto doesn't know these things. After all, an ordinary female employee who worked in a hard capital company and was very courageous complained directly to him.
As a result, in exchange for a paper transfer order, she was directly transferred from her original job and came to the administrative department of the headquarters. In fact, it is the rise of the light and the fall of the dark.
Others used to work in hard capital companies when they were in the business group. This income is much lower than now, and the future is smaller than in the past.
Of course, she can also choose to leave on her own initiative, but when she finally came in, she could see with her own eyes that the group company was thriving like the rising sun, and who was still really willing to leave?
Voluntary resignation because of this kind of thing will also bring a stain on the individual's future job search. In male-dominated Japanese society, I am afraid that there are no female subordinates like her who make small reports.
In Rumiko Kato's view, the reason why the chairman did not speak out was that he expressed a kind of acquiescence to Kiyoshi Kobayashi, and secondly, he valued the company's performance and personal ability. As for Kobayashi's leadership style and preferences, he doesn't care.
Rumiko Kato's unilateral view does not mean that Kishimoto thinks so. The reason why he dealt with the ordinary female employee who complained about Kobayashi Kiyoshi was that she fouled first and overstepped the ranks.
This is a big no-no within the company. If he still gives encouragement or encouragement, then there will be a second, third, or even more people who will "take risks" in the future.
The reality is not that Du Lala, who has the blessing of the heroine's aura in "Du Lala's Promotion", has repeatedly carried out various leaps.
On the other hand, he still affirmed her courage in his heart, after all, in a Japanese company, subordinates will be absolutely suppressed by their superiors if they do this, and they should not want to have a good life in the company in the future.
For this reason, he did not believe that the other party would be so stupid as not to even know this. She was a first-time offender, and she was a graduate who had just walked out of college, so she had just carried out a lenient dismissal that was acceptable to all parties.
