Chapter 201: Only two years to go
Lucy looked at Xu Xincheng with a firm gaze and a very firm tone, "First of all, it's because you passed all my preliminary tests and won the qualification to join this program. ”
"Test?"
"Yes. The first test was on the banks of the Pearl River. Late that night, we met by the Pearl River by an accident, I rarely went to the riverside for a walk, and it was the first time I sat and meditated in that place, and as for the reason, I have already told you before. I was deeply touched by your all-night care that night and left a very good impression on me. On the second and third nights, I went there on purpose, in addition to continuing to meditate, to test you, and I was very satisfied with your performance. ”
In fact, during this period of time, especially after really getting to know Lucy, Xu Xincheng also had questions, as Lucy, why did she go to the Pearl River for three consecutive nights to meditate? After knowing the second secret, he felt that it was reasonable for her to meditate there for one night, but the second and third nights seemed to be a little unreasonable, and with her high emotional intelligence beyond ordinary people, she would definitely be able to adjust it soon. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if she really needed to find a place to meditate, there were many good places she could find, but she chose the Pearl River, which was not a good choice, and it could even be said to be one of the worst choices.
He finally understood now, it turned out that the reason why she chose there was to test him. Thinking of this, he was moved in his heart again, how could he be, Lucy actually meditated by the Pearl River for two more nights in order to test him, this .......
Lucy continued: "After that, I asked you to go to the Red Rose Cafe for coffee and chat, and to the top floor of Baiyun Mountain to drink tea and chat, etc., firstly, to get to know you better, to get to know you better, and secondly, to test you. Later, in the work, there were also many tests, so I won't say much about the specifics. All in all, you passed all my previous tests.
Of course, and more importantly, after all this time, I have learned a lot about you. As I said earlier, I'm now convinced that you have all the potential to be a good CEO. ”
At this time, in Xu Xincheng's heart, the emotion and excitement were surging like waves, but he knew that he was really not ready, he quickly took a deep breath, thought about it, pondered for a moment, and said: "Lucy, I am really grateful for your trust in me, but I am self-aware, I know that my own experience is not enough, and my qualifications are not enough, and I am really worried that I will not be able to do this job." ”
"Steve, your biggest idol Joe, he started Company A in his early 20s, and he had no experience and no qualifications. All experience and qualifications can be accumulated gradually, and abilities can be continuously improved. ”
An idea suddenly flashed in Xu Xincheng's mind, and he hurriedly said: "Lucy, actually, in this world, there is another person who is more suitable for this role, and that person is yourself." ”
Lucy shook her head lightly and said, "Steve, I've kept a low profile as much as possible over the past few years, I just don't want too many people to know about my existence. There is no way to establish Zhongmei Xinfei Company in such a high-profile manner this time, but I still hope to be as low-key as possible and appear in front of the stage as little as possible. And there are other more important reasons why I can't be CEO myself, because I have to do a lot more important things than being a CEO, and these things are things that I can only do well behind the scenes. ”
Xu Xincheng was very helpless in his heart, this was already the best way he could think of, his idea was that with Lucy's ability, in addition to serving as the company's chairman and CFO, there should not be much of a problem as the CEO.
However, he immediately thought about it, and immediately scolded himself in his heart: "Lucy also runs several other companies at the same time, didn't I come up with such an idea to add more work pressure and workload to Lucy? Didn't I keep saying that I would do my best to share more work pressure and workload for Lucy? Why did I retreat when I needed to stand up, and I was afraid to become like this? Why did I get scared of being like this when I could really do more for Lucy?"
Xu Xincheng's heart was full of hesitation, full of contradictions, full of chagrin, he really hoped that he could help Lucy more, but also felt that his ability was really not enough, he was afraid that he would mess up his work, and at that time, he would be really sorry for her.
Suddenly, he had a new idea, and he asked, "Then why don't you choose Amanda?" In addition to Amanda, the two deputy general managers of New World Capital and a number of department directors are much better and more experienced than me. ”
"Amanda is indeed very good, and I trust her very much, which is why I feel comfortable to entrust the Guangzhou headquarters of New World Capital to her. However, she is not suitable to be the CEO of Zhongmei Xinfei Company, as for the deputy general manager of the company and others, they are indeed very good, but they are not suitable.
Although you are far inferior to them in terms of qualifications and experience, your qualifications and potential are better than theirs, and more importantly, as I said, the person who becomes the CEO of Sino-US Xinfei must be someone I absolutely trust. ”
"Ah......." Xu Xincheng opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something more, but he didn't know how to say it.
"Listen, Steve, I'm not asking you to take the position of CEO right away, because in that case, not only will you not be able to convince everyone in the company, but you will also not be able to convince anyone outside the company, and if you try to achieve it overnight, regardless of the actual situation, it will not be a good thing for you personally. What I mean by this is that I invite you to officially join the program, and then, tailor a step-by-step plan for you, and follow the plan to gradually work your way up to become CEO. ”
Lucy paused a little and said, "Well, in order to better realize this plan, I won't hire anyone else until you have the ability to become CEO, and I will still be the CEO position." ”
Hearing this, Xu Xincheng felt a little better in his heart, and his huge sense of fear suddenly eased a lot, but when he thought of that time, he hurriedly asked, "That...... Can this plan be longer?"
"No, you can't. Again, you need to be a qualified CEO in two years, a good CEO in three years, a world-class CEO in five years, and a world-class CEO in eight years. ”
Xu Xincheng was shocked in his heart, and exclaimed in his heart: "In other words, I only have two years! Oh my God!"
