Chapter 8 Insider Control 1

The so-called "circle" of customer assistance has two main steps: one is to sign the agreement of intention to place advertising, and the number can be filled in any way; second, if the investor or the intermediary agency entrusted by the investor comes to investigate, the customer needs to help confirm it, and do not reveal the stuffing.

1. Cold, chilly summer

Time flies like a white horse, and it has been financing for more than half a year in a blink of an eye.

Tom was the first to feel the chill, it was still summer, and it was still far from winter. Tom said, "How do I feel cold in the summer of dog days?"

When Tom was in Qingdao, he called Qin Fangyuan: "Come and have fun, it's only five hours by train." ”

Qin Fangyuan said: "You are going to talk about customers, I don't want to ask for leave to go out without authorization." ”

"You're a company executive, what's wrong with caring about the sales department? Whatever, come over first, buddies get together." "Tom and Qin Fangyuan's relationship is getting more and more harmonious. In Qin Fangyuan's eyes, Tom is a kind person, and the rivers and lakes are righteous.

Qin Fangyuan made a phone call to Zhang Jiahong, she was very refreshing, and after listening to a few words, she said: "Okay, okay, more guidance, Tom's side has not made any movement recently." ”

When the train arrives in Qingdao, as soon as you leave the platform, it is like being in a fairy tale world. Qingdao Railway Station retains the original appearance of the old station, with German-style small buildings and various Western-style buildings, which makes people feel like a dream.

Tom and Li Mei, the general manager of the Qingdao branch, came to pick up the station. Qin Fangyuan said: "You two are flattered!"

"Hehe, Mr. Qin's visit to Qingdao is also our honor! In the company, who doesn't know that the handsome guy Mr. Qin is personable and talented, and the company's development and growth does not depend on Mr. Qin's successful financing?"

Qin Fangyuan was the most reluctant to spread this kind of information within the company, so he immediately stopped it, saying that his family should not be discredited.

The car stopped at the gate of a seafood city, and Tom said, "Since we have arrived in Qingdao, we want to try authentic seafood." "Li Mei is a local, and the seafood she orders is naturally very authentic. She asked for a crocodile, originally Qin Fangyuan wanted to see it, but Tom grabbed him and said, "This dish tastes good, if you read it, you will feel disgusted, so it's better not to see it." ”

After three rounds of drinking, Tom's words became more: "Mr. Qin, Brother Fang Yuan, I am a rough person, I don't read much, I originally wanted to graduate from college and become an official and a half-job, but I ended up in business." Although Tom drank too much, he did not stutter, "I am over forty, and I want to start a lot of things." Now I find that I don't know how to advertise anymore, and I have to choose again at such an old age. ”

Qin Fangyuan also drank a few beers, slightly drunk, but his mind was clear, and he caught a trace of bad information from Tom's words: "Do you want to choose again? Aren't your team doing a good job? My mobile phone receives text messages from the company's IT department every day, a certain team signed another 2 million order, North China also signed a big order of 8 million last week, and Li Mei, didn't Qingdao District just get the Red Sea Pharmaceutical? It's all good news, why can't it be done?"

When Li Mei heard Tom's words, she quickly tapped the wine glass with her hand to remind him not to talk nonsense after drinking. Hearing Qin Fangyuan talk about her performance and also mention Honghai Pharmaceutical, she was embarrassed and said: "That's barter, and it is estimated that it will have to be executed in three months." Mr. Qin, don't listen to Tom's nonsense here, he is too drunk. ”

Qin Fangyuan found that Li Mei's tricks to cover up were not high.

Tom snatched the words: "Fang Yuan is a brother, don't be afraid." To be honest, we really can't do it as a media. There is also our policy, Zhang Jiahong, a woman, changed the order every day, and the policy set in the morning, as soon as people raised objections, she overturned them in the afternoon, and when we protested in the evening, she changed it back, and there was no standard. Also, you go and see, the LCD screen in many areas is black all day long, and the monitoring is also useless, so how can we pull customers?"

Qin Fangyuan thinks these are not problems. If there is a problem, it will be solved, if there is a mistake, Tom will have the right to speak about the specific operation, performance appraisal, time appraisal, and the implementation of the first question responsibility system, these are all means!

"You, you're still a scholar!" Tom really drank high, he waved his hand at Qin Fangyuan, and swept the empty bottle in his hand under the table without paying attention, only to hear a "bang", and the beer bottle shattered to the ground.

When the waiter heard this, Qin Fangyuan said, "This bottle is ours, and it will be written down at the final checkout." ”

Li Mei pulled Tom up and said, "Mr. Qin, let's settle the bill and go." ”

Tom said, "Didn't they arrange it? Fang Yuan, since you are here, listen to me! If you come, you will be at ease, and you will be completely relaxed. ”

They went straight to one of the larger local nightclubs.

Qin Fangyuan stayed in Qingdao for three days, and then returned to Beijing ahead of schedule. In the three days, drinking, sauna, singing, and drag racing can be regarded as the most relaxing three days since returning to China for so long.

On the way back to Beijing, Qin Fangyuan received another text message from the company, and East China signed an advertising contract of 3 million yuan with a *** company. Thinking of what Li Mei and Tom said, he already understood the truth of these advertising contracts, and shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Qin Fangyuan had a premonition that a crisis was coming.

The hunch is becoming a reality, and investors are sending an adviser to Mindful Media, Kim Zhongliang.

There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests. Investors have formed a collective, an alliance that hardly needs to be declared explicitly, that they are a natural community of interests. If before the B round of financing came in, Lao Yan and Zhang Jiahong formed a community of interests, it was because Lao Yan was also doing a game of drumming and passing flowers, new investors came in, and the high premium, not only the initial A round of investment increased in value, but also the development of the enterprise also added oil. After the investment is brought in, the previous community of interests naturally separates, and then, like cells, according to their natural attributes, each takes its place.

A notable sign of their natural alliance is that they have jointly appointed a consultant to Mingming Media to assist in the development of the company, and it is self-evident what to do, Zhang Jiahong knows it in his heart.

Internally, the advisor was nicknamed Old Man Kim. Jin Zhongliang is actually not old, he is only in his fifties, he has been an executive in many multinational companies before, he is familiar with the national conditions, and he is also a first-class person, so he is naturally more popular. There is only one exception, and that is Zhang Jiahong. The investor appointed Jin Zhongliang over, and initially proposed that the treatment and remuneration should be borne by the company, Zhang Jiahong jumped up in the office: "Sent a person to monitor us, and asked us to pay our salary?!"

She immediately called Lao Yan: "The employees are staring at it, now that the company's positions are full, it is not very suitable for a consultant to suddenly come, right? For people of this level, just the salary will increase the company's costs, don't you repeatedly advocate reducing staff and increasing efficiency on the board of directors? I plan to fire some more." What do you think of it?"

As soon as Lao Yan heard this, he understood in his heart: "Mr. Jin's salary is paid by our investors, and we sent him over mainly to support the company's business development, to add strength to you rather than increase the burden." However, our internal positioning is that Mr. Jin has full authority to represent us in the company, and we hope that your internal information will be open to him. After all, we are a community of interests, and we strive to achieve good development and good returns together. ”

Zhang Jiahong naturally couldn't say anything more.

On this issue, Sentai Fund, Dadao Investment and Lao Yan have the same opinion.

After Jin Zhongliang came in, he had an office by himself, basically to participate in the company's executive meetings, operation center meetings, and financial center meetings, including media resource development, customer sales, brand maintenance and relationship maintenance, with a very enthusiastic attitude, and even used the relationships he had accumulated in China for many years to introduce customers to the company. Repeatedly, the directors of the company feel that this Jin Zhongliang is really good, and he does not earn commissions or receive the company's salary, which truly reflects the value-added services of investors!

In this public opinion environment, Zhang Jiahong gradually changed his attitude, from rejection at the beginning to acceptance, and even consulted Jin Zhongliang for some major decisions.

After all, mixing on the rivers and lakes, ginger is still old and spicy.

2. The return of old love

It has been more than half a month since Qiao Mei returned to Beijing, and Shi Wenqing told Qin Fangyuan.

When Qin Fangyuan heard the news, he didn't care about Yu Yan on the side, and asked repeatedly: "When did she come back? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Did you meet? Did she mention me?"

Yu Yan saw his impatience, and she asked, "Who?"

Qin Fangyuan put down the phone, and before he could get out of the impatient and even unprepared mood just now, he blurted out: "Qiao Mei is back!" When he said the word "Qiao Mei", he woke up and was next to Yu Yan.

Yu Yan stared straight at him: "You are quite emotional, I suggest you go to the gym to exercise and adjust your emotions." ”

Qin Fangyuan apologized and said, "I'll go see Shi Wenqing." ”

Before leaving the door, he kissed Yu Yan's clean forehead. Yu Yan sat stiffly, not moving.

Shi Wenqing made an appointment to meet at a Pu'er teahouse near Sunshine 100 on Dawang Road. Qin Fangyuan hurried to the teahouse, and in a window position on the second floor, Shi Wenqing was already waiting there.

"Yesterday, that seat was where Jomei sits. ”

Qin Fangyuan just sat down, jumped up reflexively when he heard this, then smiled dumbly and sat down again.

Shi Wenqing waited for him to sit down, and said unhurriedly: "She asked me yesterday, and she scared me a lot after meeting her. ”

"Why didn't you tell me until now?!"

Shi Wenqing didn't answer him, and there was a rare depth on his face.

Qin Fangyuan was a little nervous and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"Two words: emaciated!"

Qin Fangyuan was a little impatient with Shi Wenqing: "Why are you talking crookedly, say it quickly!"

Shi Wenqing looked serious: "Qiao Meike told me everything yesterday, including those who are embarrassed and embarrassed. Well, what shall I say, such a prodigal person as me, what a scoundrel in your eyes, I feel very guilty for Qiao Mei, let alone you. ”

Qin Fangyuan was anxious to understand the key information, and couldn't wait for Shi Wenqing to speak at length, so he interrupted him and said, "Talk about the core." ”

"After you left, Qiao Mei said that she had completely let go of you, but she didn't let go in her heart. Later, I met a boy from Beijing, who was a year younger than her, and the two talked for a while. She is always stuck in the nostalgia for you, and she can't let go of it, she always feels that he is not as good as you, and they separated after a short time of talking. ”

Thinking that the woman who once belonged to him had someone else again, he felt a little awkward, Qin Fangyuan listened patiently.

Soon after this separation, she met an Anhui native in the United States on the Internet, surnamed Wang, who likes calligraphy and painting, as if he graduated from Beijing Institute of Information Engineering, saying that he is engaged in electrical engineering and has a company in China. This man is older than all of us, maybe a master of the love scene. Who is Qiao Mei? What a simple girl, you know best, right!" Shi Wenqing nodded at Qin Fangyuan.

Qin Fangyuan said: "How can you be in the mood to joke, you go on, what happened later?"

Qiao Mei and that person have been dating online for more than three months, and the person said that he was divorced and his wife was in China, and Qiao Mei pounced without hesitation. You analyze and analyze, is it that female doctors are also hungry and thirsty overseas? No, it is difficult for us yellow-skinned white girls to bubble white girls, and it is also difficult to bubble yellow girls, and there are more men than women in the United States, why is it always Qiao Mei who pounces on it?"

As he spoke, Shi Wenqing deviated from the topic and was stopped by Qin Fangyuan: "What's the mood, you still make this kind of joke and get down to business." ”

"The man lives in a neighborhood not far from Jomei's apartment. One morning, Qiao Mei was carrying her breakfast - mung bean porridge she had boiled, and when she opened the door with the key, she saw an amazing scene - and there were other women!"

Qin Fangyuan's heart tightened, he understood Qiao Mei's feelings at that moment very well, he even felt his anger, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

Shi Wenqing saw that the situation was not right, so he reached out and patted Qin Fangyuan's shoulder: "If you can't even bear this little thing, I won't talk about it." ”

Qin Fangyuan exhaled lightly, soothed his emotions, and joked: "You talked about other people's things vividly, do you remember the time you and He Jing did?"

Shi Wenqing hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't mention this in the future, it's bad luck to be bumped into by buddies." No, let's talk about how Qiao Mei said it to me, and then Qiao Mei, and then Qiao Mei.

After Qiao Mei bumped into this scene, she quickly exited the room, ran downstairs alone, squatted aside and cried. After crying, she calmed down and went back to her room, where she was already dressed. Qiao Mei didn't say a word after entering, picked up things and smashed them, laptops, ceramics, vases, anything valuable, and tore off the oil paintings on the wall, which scared the girl, also Chinese, to run, probably she thought Qiao Mei was crazy. That momentum stopped the painter surnamed Wang from Anhui! Qiao Mei said that he left after smashing it that time. ”

Qin Fangyuan thought to himself: This is Qiao Mei, this is Beijing girl!

"Qiao Mei is unladylike, or because I think about you in my heart! Alas, to be honest, I really envy you. Although I have a lot of women, they are all like passers-by; you have few women, but they all want to live and die for you, and you can't stop it, this is called kung fu! If I practice Shaolin, what you learn is definitely Wudang Tai Chi, four or two thousand catties, the strength is endless, so enviable!"

Qin Fangyuan waved his hand: "Come less, how can you contact Qiao Mei?" Give me the phone." ”

"You really go straight to the point, it's like grabbing something from me, you pay for today's tea! Also, don't speak ill of me when you see Qiao Mei - how am I doing now, this, you can tell the truth." ”

What Shi Wenqing wanted to express and what purpose he wanted to achieve, Qin Fangyuan had already seen it clearly. He knew that Shi Wenqing wanted Qiao Mei to pass on the message to his girlfriends who were stranded in the United States, of course, it was kind words.

Qin Fangyuan saved Qiao Mei's phone into his mobile phone and was about to dial the number. Shi Wenqing's hand lightly pressed him, Qin Fangyuan was stunned for a moment, and looked up at him.

Shi Wenqing had no expression on his face, and his voice was low, almost with a sigh: "Brother, think clearly." You're not me, you can't do my business. Don't forget Yu Yan. ”

Qin Fangyuan froze, watching Shi Wenqing get up and go out, but he didn't slow down.

Over the weekend, he finally called Jomei. Qiao Mei knew who it was as soon as she heard the word "Hey", and she couldn't stop crying. Qin Fangyuan said, "Where are you?"

"At home. Jomei's voice was weak.

Qin Fangyuan immediately ran to Shunyi, and he didn't care about asking Lao Zhao to get out of the car.

Jomei in her boudoir. When Qin Fangyuan was about to go downstairs to Qiao Mei's house, Qiao Mei's mother went downstairs first, she held Qin Fangyuan's hand, and before she could say anything, tears rolled in her eyes: "Child, you go and persuade her." After returning to China, she was depressed, and she didn't know what grievances she had suffered abroad, and I didn't dare to ask, she was anxious if she asked too much. What's going on?" the old man cried.

Qin Fangyuan comforted him and went upstairs. Qiao Mei hid in the boudoir, she coldly watched Qin Fangyuan push the door in, without expression, just staring at him all the time, flipping through a signature pen in her hand.

Qin Fangyuan said, "I'm here!"

He crouched down and stood in front of Jomei, holding her shoulders and looking her in the eye.

Qiao Mei's eyes were empty, which made Qin Fangyuan's heart tighten. How energetic he was back then, he only needed one look to know what the other party was going to say.

Qiao Mei still didn't speak, Qin Fangyuan talked about his experience and interesting things after returning to China for more than a year, of course he didn't say anything about Yu Yan. Qiao Mei still listened coldly.

Qin Fangyuan was too tired to squat, Qiao Mei's mother knocked on the door and handed Qin Fangyuan a small bench and went out again. Qin Fangyuan sat on a small bench and continued to talk about interesting things. Gradually, Qiao Mei's eyes had heat and temperature, and in the blink of an eye, her eyes were full of tears, and large tears fell. She hugged Qin Fangyuan suddenly, crying like a child, like a long-lost brother and sister suddenly meeting, that cry had an irrepressible tremor and heaviness.

Qin Fangyuan was also shed in tears. After all, they have experienced so much hardship and struggle together.

Jomei said, "Hold me, don't leave me! No, I'll die." ”

Qin Fangyuan's hand was stretched out in the air, and finally landed on Qiao Mei, hugging her hard. Jomei's body trembled and burned.

3. Showdown

Good times are always short-lived.

Qin Fangyuan once asked Shi Wenqing if he had intentionally or unintentionally revealed Qiao Mei's affairs to Yu Yan. Shi Wenqing was furious: "You just don't want to see your buddies like this?!Who are we with whom, I haven't worn a pair of pants since I was a child, can I divulge this kind of thing? Can I do that?" He was righteous and strict, as if he had been greatly wronged. "I really want to scold you, though. I've always been open and open. Yes, I read countless women, but I would never have different women at the same time. ”

originally consulted Shi Wenqing for help, but not only did he not get the answer he wanted, but he was also ridiculed. In terms of dealing with the relationship between men and women, Qin Fangyuan had to admit that he was relatively mentally retarded.

Maybe it's a woman's sixth sense, Yu Yan not only had an unusual past with Qiao Mei, but also knew that Qin Fangyuan often ran over to stay with Qiao Mei a few days ago. She was sad, she knew that sooner or later this matter would have to be resolved.

Yu Yan called Qiao Mei and invited her to dinner at the Maxim Restaurant of the Chongwenmen Hotel. Maxim Restaurant is the first Sino-foreign joint venture high-end Western restaurant in Beijing and even in China, and the foreign investor is Pierre Cardin. Cui Jian sang the famous song "Nothing" for the first time here, and married Song Huaigui's daughter Song Xiaohong.

Yu Yan ordered Qiao Mei a French meal of 600 yuan/set, plus a 15% service charge. The set menu includes a starter, soup, main course, dessert and coffee tea, plus foie gras pie, baked snails and pan-fried steak. Qiao Mei didn't say a word, looked at Yu Yan busy, and asked for a bottle of Louis Eichner's Merlot for 19,800 yuan.

Yu Yan said: "Cheers to Qin Fangyuan!"

Jomay raised her glass.

"Cheers to your health!"

Jomay raised her glass.

"Cheers to your victory!"

This time Jomay didn't have a toast. She saw that Yu Yan's eyes were full of tears, and she seemed to deliberately not let it flow, always quietly bowing her head and wiping her eyes with a napkin.

In the melodious string music, the two ate quietly and silently, a hearty Western meal, and ate tastelessly. Qiao Mei knew that she was the Jessie in Qin Fangyuan's mouth, and looking at this girl of her own age, she felt very uncomfortable.

The next day, Yu Yan found Qin Fangyuan and said, "You still love her, don't you?" OK, easy a

d clea

(Simple and straightforward.) )”

Qin Fang had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Circling between the two women made him feel very tired, although Yu Yan had never quarreled about it, but the more this happened, the more Qin Fangyuan felt that it was about to rain heavily.

Qin Fangyuan once asked Shi Wenqing for advice on this matter. Shi Wenqing said: "Can you fit two women in your heart? You tell me the truth." ”

Qin Fangyuan thought about it and nodded.

"Do you love both of them?"

Qin Fangyuan nodded.

"That's right, you laughed at me for being indiscriminate, not at all. In fact, there are so many girls I have dated with me, all of them have feelings, and I really don't change them casually like changing clothes. Like the one at film school, I used to go far away to pick strawberries for her birthday. Like that flight attendant, don't call me hypocritical, I really plan to marry her, I also plan to buy her a BMW, and I will keep all the 500,000 cash. And that Xiaomei, you know, if it weren't for a single-parent family, I would have to live with her mother after marriage, which is beyond my ability, I'm afraid I would have married her a long time ago. I've been used to being alone since I was a child, how can I live with the elderly? Anyway, I understand your current mood very well, a man can really love a few women, and a woman can only fit a man in her heart, doesn't it mean that men have sex first and then love, women have love first and then sex, or once you have sex, the whole heart will rush to you. ”

"With Yu Yan, I am very happy, like burning. With Jomei, I will be very stable and live well, although, at times, it is depressing. I don't know if Yu Yan loves me or if he marries me, but I know the bottom of my heart about Qiao Mei. Qin Fangyuan said honestly. In this regard, he acknowledged that Shi Wenqing was his teacher.

"You're old. Shi Wenqing said inexplicably.

Qin Fangyuan understood. Like most mediocre emotional entanglements in the world, the person you love and the person who loves you, the passionate unknown and the stable bondage, which one do you choose. "I'm also annoyed with myself, I'm really a person who doesn't have the courage," he said in frustration. ”

"Haha, that's a tricky question. As far as life is concerned, Qiao Mei is suitable for you, after all, you have lived together in a foreign country for many years, and in terms of career prospects, Yu Yan is more suitable for you. What is her background? I'm sure you know. The character is simple and martial, which is helpful for your career. ”

Shi Wenqing said so much, Qin Fangyuan still didn't know how to choose, and in the end it was Yu Yan who helped him choose.

Yu Yan asked him, "Do you love me?"

Qin Fangyuan said seriously: "I love you. He thought bitterly in his heart, yes, I love you, but I also love Jomei.

Yu Yan said: "I love you, for me, love is love, love you, it has nothing to do with other things." There are so many things in your love. Since she is back, and you are back to her, I will not accompany her. ”

When Yu Yan turned around, Qin Fangyuan didn't see her crying, he always thought that Yu Yan would cry.

When talking about this detail, Shi Wenqing laughed at Qin Fangyuan: "Who do you think you are? Do you want to shed tears when you love? What kind of logic is this! Actually, you are not willing to be so neat and tidy in handling this matter! Tell you, people like Yu Yan, she will not hesitate with you, pull and pull, twitter, mother-in-law, people quickly cut through the mess." You, you're still at the level of a primary school student when you fall in love. However, it shouldn't be, I look at these few people in your place, and they are indeed all top-notch, God doesn't have long eyes!"

Since Yu Yan's showdown with Qin Fangyuan that time, he has never given Qin Fangyuan a chance to think and justify. She packed up the few personal belongings she had left with Qin Fangyuan, turned around and left.

After Yu Yan left, Qin Fangyuan sat down in disappointment, looking out of the window emptyly for a long time. What made him despise himself was that although he was in pain and frustration, he actually felt relaxed from the bottom of his heart.

4. Can't hide it

There is a saying that most people are fate, and when you are lucky, you can drop pies in the sky, and once you turn unlucky, you can stuff your teeth with cold water.

Shortly thereafter, Yu Yan suddenly found Qin Fangyuan, next to the fountain pool at the entrance of the Oriental Grand Hyatt Hotel, holding a bunch of materials, and got straight to the point: "Simo."

, about Mindful Media, tell me somethi

g I do

't k

ow (tell me something I don't know). ”

Qin Fangyuan saw that Yan Yan's expression was wrong, as if he was looking at him with provocative eyes, and he didn't understand what was going on for a while.

Yu Yan said: "Can you swear to God, don't you know about that financing?"

As soon as Yu Yan asked like this, he understood. It was a stone that weighed on his heart, and almost a year had passed, and the execution of the contracts promised by these people had hardly been fulfilled. It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come.

He is in the know. Needless to say, he was one of the leaders in financing, he was in charge of the business plan, and he was also the one who negotiated the business. Yes, he did hide it, but he had a hard time, and the parties swore that they could turn their intentions into formal contracts and make their dreams come true, and that this was already an unspoken rule of the industry, and it was not uncommon for them to be seen for a long time. Moreover, at that time, the capital market was manic, and the project was basically in a state of grabbing, grasping the big and letting go of the small, and this problem should be looked at in the general environment.

Thinking like this, he felt that there was no need to feel guilty. So, when Yu Yan asked him in a questioning tone, he shook his head and acted firmly.

Yu Yan originally expected him to state truthfully, but in exchange for a resolute denial, she suddenly became angry and even a little sad. The bright sunlight seemed to be engulfed in the dark universe, gradually annihilating into a dim starlight.

She had already gotten inside material — information that was once a trade secret of the company. How did he get it? Qin Fangyuan was puzzled, just like how Yu Yan knew about him and Qiao Mei.

Yu Yan was angry because she lied to her father. As the largest LP of this fund, while hesitating, it was his daughter who called herself, so that a project that could be invested or not invested in would change life and death in a thought, and this decision was made because of her child's commitment. This commitment actually came from Qin Fangyuan, from Yan's trust and support for Qin Fangyuan.

When Yu Yan saw Qin Fangyuan, who shook his head firmly, his heart immediately cooled. She slapped the information in her hand at Qin Fangyuan's face with a "snap", turned around and walked away, letting the information scatter like fireworks.

Qin Fangyuan was alone, as if he had been hollowed out, squatting beside the fountain pool.

This scene may become a sour feeling for Qin Fangyuan to chew alone for a long time.

Qin Fangyuan actually understands Yu Yan's feelings, people who are educated in the United States, even children know that the protagonist of "Pinocchio" is the little puppet Pinocchio, who can't learn. Yu Yan's performance was the same as Qin Fangyuan's performance when he first came into contact with this information, but Qin Fangyuan compromised. Bearing in mind that media is my first project in China, and the first battle after returning to China, everyone is eager to succeed. In the context of high-sounding, unanimous opinions, and interests first, he chose to compromise and even conceal it.

5. The "meeting of cronies" is pompous

On this day, as soon as Qin Fangyuan entered his office, He Jing rushed in: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Zhang asked you to go to the small conference room for a meeting." ”

Since being bumped into by Qin Fangyuan in Shi Wenqing's apartment that time, He Jing's attitude towards Qin Fangyuan has changed greatly, and she has almost made a straight face. Qin Fangyuan thought to himself, even if it was Diao Chan, after his mood deteriorated, he would not be as beautiful as before. However, Qin Fangyuan didn't care too much, he couldn't hold these trivial emotional things in his heart.

Qin Fangyuan walked to the small conference room and found that there were not many people, but they all had solemn faces and were sitting in danger. Qin Fangyuan quickly glanced at it and found that the people attending the meeting today were strange, several core executives of the company did not attend the meeting, such as COO Tom was not there, CAO Shen Jun was not there, CMO had not seen each other for two or three weeks, and he didn't know what he was busy with, CFO Li Dong was not there, and even Xia Tao, the director of human resources, was nowhere to be seen. A big question mark sprung up in his mind: What kind of meeting is this, and what is it going to discuss?

Zhang Jiahong sat in the position of the host of the long table, and every invited participant nodded when he came in, so peaceful, his subordinates were a little uncomfortable.

Sitting on both sides of the table were Wang Bingbing, vice president in charge of media resource development, Li Yong, the newly promoted LCD screen purchasing director, Dong Huaien, director of the office, Xiao Qiang, director of the first major account, and Hu Dongmei, manager of the finance department. Qin Fangyuan suddenly understood that these people were Zhang Jiahong's cronies who often talked about it. "Could it be that I have also been included in the camp of my cronies?" Qin Fangyuan was puzzled by today's situation.

Zhang Jiahong saw Qin Fangyuan coming in, so he asked the secretary to close the door: "It's all my own family, don't talk about two families." Many of you have been advertising with me for many years, for ten years, and you have participated in the establishment of Remembering Media, and we have fought together. She paused, "To tell everyone, the company is now experiencing very big difficulties, and there will be a tough battle next." Fighting tigers depends on brothers, relying on fathers and sons to fight, and I hope that any of you here will not drop the chain at the critical moment. ”

After listening to this opening remark, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what would happen next, and not knowing what the tough battle would be. Qin Fangyuan instinctively felt the undercurrent surging. It is said that a woman's heart is unpredictable, and the mind of a strong woman is like seeing flowers in a fog, and people outside will always only see the tip of the iceberg.

Recalling the bits and pieces of the past year since joining Mingming Media Company, Qin Fangyuan realized that what should come will always come, and all causes will come to fruition.

Qin Fangyuan's thoughts drifted away, he only saw Zhang Jiahong's mouth opening and closing up and down, and he didn't know what she said. Zhang Jiahong suddenly turned his head to speak to Qin Fangyuan, who was sitting on the side, interrupting his thoughts: "Fang Yuan, there will be some big changes in the company recently, I hope you will not be affected." You were introduced by Shi Wenqing and are your own people. ”

This kind of straightforward statement, Qin Fangyuan hadn't heard it for a long time. What big changes will there be, worthy of Zhang Jiahong's special advice?

Zhang Jiahong assigned the task: "We have to sort out the performance report for the first three quarters of this year and the performance forecast for the fourth quarter. ”

In fact, this matter can be handed over to the business department, the performance report finance can issue data, and the performance forecast is provided by the operation department, which should not be personally asked by the chairman, and it is not suitable for discussion at today's small meeting, not to mention that the relevant core departments are not there.

Zhang Jiahong seems to care about this thing very much, so everyone understands that this matter is very important, but they don't know what to do with it.

"Excuse me, what's the use?" Wang Bingbing said a question that everyone had in common.

On this day, Zhang Jiahong almost answered all questions. She replied gently: "Don't worry about what to do for now, just make the report more solid, and submit it to Mr. Qin tonight." ”

Dong Huaien, the director of the office, said casually: "It is estimated that we will start financing again, and we will show it to investors!"

At this moment, everyone understands, only Qin Fangyuan does not understand that these forms are not needed for financing at all, and the company has no conditions and signs for starting Series C financing. What did Zhang Jiahong do when he summoned these people to do this? He suddenly remembered something, before the B round of financing, it was also in such an office, and after holding a briefing meeting on financing that afternoon, Zhang Jiahong summoned a small number of people to attend an internal meeting in the evening, called the "cronies meeting," and Qin Fangyuan was far from being invited to attend that meeting. This situation and this scene are as if they were yesterday.

"In this matter, we still have to rely on the support of Mr. Qin. Xiao Qiang, director of the first department of key accounts, said to Qin Fangyuan in a weird manner, "If Mr. Qin doesn't pass, it will be useless for us to do more." Financing, people are in power! Just say it's okay, if you can't say it's okay, it's not okay, it's bullish. ”

Just figuring out a little bit of taste, hearing Xiao Qiang's words, Qin Fangyuan was greatly stimulated, and suddenly a wave of blood gushed out, and blurted out like a reflex: "What are you talking about? Am I in the way? You are responsible for what any of you do, and you are not a three-year-old child!"

These people were obviously not psychologically prepared for the sudden madness of Qin Fangyuan, who was usually polite and polite, and several eyes fell on Qin Fangyuan. Those eyes were cold, like a sharp sword hanging in the air, which could be killed at any time, Qin Fangyuan thought deeply of two words - loneliness.

The air in the small conference room froze, quietly, He Jing, who was sitting not far away, looked at this, looked at that, and didn't dare to squeak.

"Mr. Qin, when we did the second round of financing, didn't you take the contracts and statements we provided to sue? You also asked us to sign and confirm, haven't you always wanted to be a good person?" Xiao Qiang said-for-tat.

Dong Huaien, the director of the office, also came to help: "Yes, I was in charge of the resource development of a sub-district, and people secretly went to investigate the authenticity of our contract, thinking that I didn't know, and now I have taken it all down? ”

Qin Fangyuan immediately stood up and slammed the notebook on the table, glaring at them angrily. This is an unhealed scar, which has already affected his credibility in the eyes of Yu Yan and the investors, but he didn't expect to be torn apart by their joint efforts on this occasion, bleeding bright red blood, and a group of spectators were still there sizzling and laughing, so debauched, so cold.

The Zhang family looked at all this with a blue face. He Jing saw that the situation was not right, stood up and said to Xiao Qiang and Dong Huaien: "Can you stop? Mr. Zhang is still here! Aren't you discussing things? Why do you feel like you have taken medicine?"

mentioned that the chairman was still there, and they immediately behaved.

Zhang Jiahong spoke: "Where have you gone to do business?

Qin Fangyuan heard the different meaning of "infighting", and he somewhat understood what Zhang Jiahong was trying to achieve by making these reports-the board of directors was about to be held. He sat down.

Regarding the word "solid" used by Zhang Jiahong to mention the data report, Wang Bingbing understands it. First of all, he proposed that we should demonstrate our ability to control costs and let people see how we can save costs, especially resource maintenance costs, which are only about 3 million yuan a year. How many people are focused on media? The listed financial statements show a lot, although there are differences in the number of advertising spots. Our maintenance cost per unit of resource is very low, where to find such a cost-conscious team? What is value? This is our value.

"OK! Zhang Jiahong is very satisfied.

"How to report the sales performance?" asked Liao Hong, director of the North China Region. This woman was the first employee Zhang Jiahong recruited when she entered Beijing to do TV advertising business, and she was loyal.

This question is stupid, of course, sales performance is calculated according to business contracts, how many contracts have been signed, how much has been executed, how much has been received, how much should be receivable, in black and white, and there should be a string of numbers just out of mouth. Qin Fangyuan shrugged his shoulders, and they turned their gaze to Zhang Jiahong.

"The pre-sale in the fourth quarter is 50 million, and next year's advertising plan is predicted to be higher. Chairman Zhang instructed his subordinates, "Those key customers should say hello in advance, and each pre-sale order must be implemented to specific customers, and if investors do due diligence, let these customers help round it out." We need to get over the hurdle in front of us. ”

This is a reproduction of the scene in last year's financing incident, and Qin Fangyuan has already seen it. He suddenly felt a little nauseous, stood up and said to Zhang Jiahong: "Mr. Zhang, I am a little unwell, please take a leave of absence to rest." ”

Everyone looked at Zhang Jiahong, Zhang Jiahong saw this situation, hesitated for a while, she stared at Qin Fangyuan's face tightly, and saw that there were some beads of sweat on his forehead, so she waved her hand lightly and asked Qin Fangyuan to go back to his own office to rest.

Others began to ponder the meaning and movement of the word "circle". The so-called circle, there are two main steps: one is to sign an agreement of intent to place advertising, since it is an agreement of intent, do not bear the legal responsibility of the formal contract, so the number can be filled in any way;

In fact, these tasks should be borne in mind that Tom, the COO of the media, is specifically responsible, and the chairman should hide behind the scenes, so that even if investors ask questions, there is at least a firewall in front of the chairman. For some reason, Tom wasn't invited to the meeting.
