Chapter 89: Linda
Saturday morning, at 10:10, the mobile phone rang, Xu Xincheng picked it up and saw that it was Lucy, he quickly answered the phone, and just wanted to say hello to her with her English name, and immediately realized that it would be inappropriate, so he said: "Chairman, hello!"
There was a soft laugh on the other end of the phone, and the voice on the other side said, "Steve, you better call me Lucy!"
"Uh...... That's not good!" he said uneasily.
"Let's call me Lucy! We are friends, we are still colleagues, we were equal before, and we are and will be equal. ”
"Okay then......! "Lucy, good morning!" he struggled to call out the English name "Lucy".
"We'll meet tomorrow in my office. It's a busy time, and I really can't leave. ”
He hurriedly said, "If it's too busy, we can make another appointment." ”
"Meeting you is now part of my agenda. ”
"Okay, then I'll go over and ...... you tomorrow", Xu Xincheng paused, realizing that it was wrong to use "you", so he changed his words and said: "I will report to you this week's work in the past." ”
"Okay, we'll see you tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon. ”
"See you tomorrow. ”
Hanging up the phone and putting down the phone, Xu Xincheng sat in his seat for a while, and then he shook his head several times in a row, took several deep breaths, and sorted out his somewhat messy mind.
Last Sunday, after learning that Lucy's background and identity turned out to be such a big deal, he had been very worried in his heart. Before, although the two were different, because they didn't have anything to do with her at work, it was no problem for the two to be friends, but now, Lucy is the chairman of the new company or his top boss, can this friend relationship really be maintained?
Thinking of this, he patted his head and said to himself, "I don't know if the friendship relationship can be maintained, but the relationship between superiors and subordinates and employment with Lucy has begun, so let's do a good job first." ”
He quickly adjusted himself and immediately returned to work.
Every department manager will summarize the day's work before leaving work every day, make a concise work report, and send it to him and General Manager Li. He summarized and summarized all the work reports and formulated a general report.
In addition, he also sorted out the project work list formulated by all department managers in the past two or three days from beginning to end, summarized and summarized, and formulated a general list. This general list is better than a work report because it can be used to guide yourself and your departments in what they do next. However, because everyone started to adopt this list management method because of these geniuses, there are inevitably many imperfections.
He thought to himself that he would have another meeting with everyone next week, and that he would need to provide individual guidance and assistance to individual managers, and to those who had not yet mastered the management method very well.
For most of the afternoon and evening, he was assisting Manager Qiao of the R&D department and several project leaders to sort out the technology, application and product information that Lucy wanted, and carefully summarized and classified them, so he was busy until half past ten in the evening.
---------
On Sunday morning, in order to perform better when reporting to Lucy for the first time, Xu Xincheng returned to the company at 8:30 to work overtime, and worked until 14:10 in the afternoon before leaving and rushed to New World Capital.
At 14:50, Xu Xincheng arrived at the door of the office of New World Capital, and the door was opened by the beautiful woman at the front desk last time. He suddenly remembered that last time, because he was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery like the "mirror of the sky", he forgot to ask her what to call her, and he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't ask how to call you last time, I'm really sorry!
"My name is Linda. ”
He felt the need to get to know her better. In the eyes of ordinary people, the front desk of the company is just a very ordinary role, but he does not think so, when guests visit, the first person they see is often the front desk. Many companies are willing to spend a lot of money to decorate the company lobby and reception desk very high-end, but they are not willing to hire some high-quality front desks with high salaries.
If the front desk has good personal qualities and an excellent level of reception, it will leave a very good first impression on the guest, and with a good first impression, things will naturally go much smoother, and vice versa.
He politely asked, "I want to know more about you, I want to ask you a few personal questions, I don't know if it's convenient?"
"Of course it's convenient. ”
"Where are you from?"
"I'm from Guangzhou. ”
Judging by her appearance, she should be about the same age as him, and it is estimated that she came to work here as soon as she graduated from college, "How long have you been working here?"
"It's just been a year. I came here a year ago to work after returning from studying in the UK. ”
"What school is it?"
Linda said lightly: "I first studied at the Royal Ladies College for three years in high school, and then at Cambridge University for three years as an undergraduate in international finance. ”
Xu Xincheng was taken aback in his heart, needless to say, the thunderous Cambridge University is one of the top ten universities in the world.
The Royal College for Women is also very remarkable. During the winter vacation of his freshman year, Zhou Dedao traveled to the United Kingdom with his mother and sister, and in addition to visiting world-renowned universities such as Cambridge University and Oxford University, he also visited this college. He said that the requirements for applying for admission to this college are extremely high, even for their family, even if the smart and clever Xiaomei wants to apply for admission, it is difficult to climb to the sky, let alone cross the high threshold, even if you jump, you can't touch its edge.
The Royal Women's College is one of the best women's colleges in the world, and the female students who graduate from this college are known for their elegance and dignity, and it can be said that it is one of the best cradles for training world-class ladies, even European aristocrats and world-class wealthy businessmen have to go to great lengths to send their daughters to this college.
Xu Xincheng thought to himself, no wonder Linda's words, deeds, smiles and smiles looked so elegant, noble, dignified and virtuous, it turned out that she graduated from such a good aristocratic school. It's just that with such a good background and such a high quality, she is just a front desk here, which is really surprising.
After thinking about it, he was taken aback in his heart, if a front desk is already like this, then there must be a lot of talents in New World Capital, and the background and education of every employee are not simple.
Linda seemed to see his doubt, she smiled softly, and said, "My education is only average in the company, and I don't have any work experience, so I chose to start from the front desk." There are not many customers in the company, and there are very few jobs at the front desk, and our main work content every day is actually part-time as the manager's secretary or the general manager's secretary.
After many rounds of selection, I was fortunate enough to be a part-time secretary of Lady Lucy. This is a very rare opportunity, an opportunity that everyone is vying for. In terms of manners, conversation, cultivation and temperament, she is the most elegant, decent, and noble of all the people I have ever met, at least one or two grades higher than the European aristocratic ladies;
Not to mention that the salary package here is very good, even if I have to pay, I am willing to follow her. I had planned to apply back to Cambridge for an MBA after two or three years, and I was willing to give up that plan if I could continue to be Lady Lucy's secretary. Not only can you save tuition and time, but you can also learn more things, and you can better improve your professional level, so why not!"
"Excuse me, how many secretaries does Chairman Lucy have?"
"There are three part-time secretaries. ”
"Are all part-time secretaries?" he asked, curiously.
"Yes. According to Amanda, she has never had a full-time secretary for herself. ”
