Chapter 199: Lost, but Won Respect
Downstairs of Zhongkai Group, Xia Xizhi took the secretary and the sales manager to bid for the project together. Walking calmly ahead, the manager and secretary walked on either side of her.
"We have won nine out of ten projects in this project, our company has some strength, and more importantly, our director is also the wife of the president of Zhongkai Group. The secretary said with a smile.
Hearing her words, Xia Xizhi frowned, and said in a low voice: "I don't want this project to be won, it's because of personal relationships." ”
Hearing this, the manager said in a low voice: "Director, the company attaches great importance to this project. The general manager asked you to be personally responsible, and I also hope that with your relationship with Mr. Ji, there will be a convenience. If you can't win it, the general manager will probably not be able to explain. ”
Looking at the front, Xia Xizhi said lightly: "This matter is left to Mr. Ji to judge for himself." And we, just do our best. ”
Seeing her say this, the manager didn't say anything more, and was a little worried.
Xia Xizhi walked into the Zhongkai Building, and when the front desk saw her, they all called respectfully: "Hello, madam." ”
When the security guard saw her, he immediately took the initiative to ring the doorbell enthusiastically. Seeing this scene, representatives of other companies who came to bid for the bid whispered: "I heard that Mr. Ji and his wife have a deep relationship, and it seems that they are going to win a place today." ”
"It's too bad, it looks like our company is out of play. Zhongkai Group only introduces one cosmetics company, obviously our company is stronger than Shengyong, I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the back door of others. Another said grumblingly.
Listening to their conversation, Xia Xizhi was silent quietly, as if he hadn't heard. In the elevator, Xia Xizhi stared at the display screen, watching the numbers keep getting bigger.
The elevator opened with a drop, and the employees of Zhongkai's public relations department were already there to greet them, leading them to the conference room. Kang Kang saw Xia Xizhi and said with a smile: "Madame is here." ”
"Today I am Sheng Yong's representative, so you don't need to call me Madame. Xia Xizhi said with a smile.
Knowing what she meant, Kang Kang nodded: "Okay, Miss Xia, please inside." ”
Sitting down in the position, Xia Xizhi and the others waited for Ji Xiuyu's arrival. And directly opposite them, sitting is Sheng Yong's competitor. I saw them looking at Xia Xizhi's face with obvious disdain and disdain.
Xia Xizhi was so confused that he whispered to let the manager think more about it for a while.
Soon, Ji Xiuyu came to the conference room. Simply glancing at everyone, Ji Xiuyu sat down in his position and said in a low voice: "Let's start." ”
At the sound of the order, the bidding officially began. Each company of the same type describes its own characteristics and achievements, as well as what kind of company will be opened in the project development area, and how much effort will be invested. The focus of everyone's elaboration is to amplify the company's own advantages.
After Xia Xizhi quietly listened to the comparison between her own company and her rival company, she was a little worried. Judging from the current situation, the advantage of the other company is obviously higher than that of Shengyong.
After everyone finished speaking, Ji Xiuyu arranged for them to rest for a while, and he went to another conference room to discuss with the company's department head.
Seeing Ji Xiuyu leaving, the manager said worriedly: "Director, judging from the current situation, it is very unfavorable to our company. It's better for you to talk to Mr. Ji and let him release the water. ”
"Yes, I think according to the feelings of Mr. Ji and the director, he should give us the project. The secretary said.
Xia Xizhi didn't speak, just sat there expressionlessly. At this moment, Kang Kang came to her and said with a smile: "Madam, the president asked you to go to the office. ”
Hearing this, Xia Xizhi hummed, and then stood up. Seeing her get up, the representative of the other company's eyes showed contempt and contempt, as well as a touch of unwillingness. Xia Xizhi didn't speak, and left directly with Kang Kang.
When he came to the president's office, Xia Xizhi knocked on the door and walked in. On the sofa, Ji Xiuyu was waiting for her. "Xiu Yu, is there something wrong?" Xia Xizhi asked simply.
Looking at him, Ji Xiuyu put his hands in front of him: "It's a pity, you found the reason why I came to you." Between Sheng Yong and his good daughter-in-law, what do you want me to choose?"
Hearing his straightforward inquiry, Xia Xizhi sat down opposite him, was silent for a few seconds, and said, "If it were me, I would like you to choose a good daughter-in-law." ”
Surprise flashed in his eyes, and Ji Xiuyu raised his eyebrows: "What is the reason? You are Shengyong's sales director, everyone should think that you want me to give the project to Shengyong." In this way, it will bring a lot of profits to Shengyong, and it can also affect the stock price trend of Shengyong. ”
Looking at his gaze, Xia Xizhi replied with a smile: "Judging from the strength of the two companies, a good daughter-in-law is better than Sheng Yong by more than a star and a half. Otherwise, over the years, a good daughter-in-law would not have been firmly in the first place in the field of cosmetics. If a good daughter-in-law is allowed to settle in, it will bring greater benefits to Zhongkai Group. ”
"But if Sheng Yong is allowed to settle in, although it is not as good as a good daughter-in-law, it will not be a loss to Zhongkai. Ji Xiuyu said.
"I know, but if you have the ability to do things, why don't you choose the best? Xiuyu, as a businessman, you value profits. I want you to distinguish between public and private, and I don't want you to go against your principles because of me. Xia Xizhi said succinctly.
Listening to her explanation, Ji Xiuyu just looked at her, and then said appreciatively: "My wife is very smart and caring. ”
With a playful smile, Xia Xizhi replied calmly: "Besides, I can also be regarded as a shareholder of Zhongkai, and I also have shares." For the sake of Zhongkai, isn't it also for my own good? So Xiuyu, don't change your true decision because of me. ”
Standing up and stroking her head, Ji Xiuyu said softly, "Wife, thank you." ”
"It's okay, just do it. Xia Xizhi smiled understandingly.
Ji Xiuyu lowered his head, kissed her on the forehead, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll go first, and I'll pick you up in the evening." ”
Looking at him, Xia Xizhi's eyebrows curled: "Well, good." As he spoke, Xia Xizhi smiled and watched him leave.
Ten minutes later, the bidding finally ended. The representative of the good daughter-in-law, under their shocked gaze, got the contract. Waiting in front of the elevator, the representative of the good daughter-in-law came to Xia Xizhi and hesitated for a while before saying, "Miss Xia, thank you today." ”
Listening to his words, Xia Xizhi smiled lightly: "Your company's plan is very exciting, you won this time, and it is your strength to win." However, we will try to win you in the next meeting. ”
Nodding, the other party smiled and said, "Okay, let's wait." ”
Looking at his face with appreciation, Xia Xizhi had a warm smile. Although the project failed, she was happy. At the very least, she earned respect. She didn't want others to think that she was Ji Xiuyu's wife and ran rampant.
