The Drifter (146) - The Insider
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
As a foreign-funded company, in the face of an unfamiliar environment, trying to keep a low profile is the way to survive. So many unbearable insiders were exposed at once, and the pressure on foreign shareholders can be imagined.
As a local heavyweight state-owned enterprise, the Chinese shareholders are also very annoyed, even angry!
At the beginning, it was also a decision made by the big leaders, with infinite expectations for the insurance industry. As a result, after opening for so long, I spent a lot of money, not only did I not see profits for a long time, but the situation became more and more out of control under continuous losses. I don't know when I will lose?
A representative of a Chinese shareholder said with resentment: If we do our own real estate, it is estimated that it will increase several times!
The remarks of the Chinese shareholder representative basically represent the overall view of the shareholders.
Since this is a national media report, local SOEs have no channels to communicate. Foreign shareholders are even more at a loss. The female manager in charge of public relations in the company is tall and beautiful, very temperamental, but she doesn't know anything about real public relations. Who called her the niece and daughter-in-law of a senior Chinese shareholder?
In the end, it is the Chinese side that solves the problem.
Through the Propaganda Department, they found friends in the local media circles, turned a corner, and found Wu Xiaoyu, who wrote the manuscript.
Chinese society is like this, you can always find people who are familiar with each other, and this is called a Chinese-style relationship.
Of course, it's the same in other countries, isn't there a famous theory of six degrees of connection, which says that as long as you go through the six rounds of interpersonal relationships, you can get to know anyone in the world. Including those political dignitaries, celebrities, big names, and even drug lords who seem to be out of reach.
The relationship between Yu Yuanming and Shi Xiang is getting closer and closer. Once Yu Yuanming and Shi Xiang said: You are very much like a person, Wang Shi of Vanke. It's not that the appearance is similar, but the temperament is similar.
As he spoke, he took out a book and handed it to Shi Xiang.
Shi Xiang laughed, took "Roads and Dreams", and replied with a casual flipped through: I am not as capable as others.
Yu Yuanming said sincerely: Mr. Shi, your ability may not be as great as Wang Shi. But the temperament of the two of you is very similar. Work passionately, not afraid of difficulties and obstacles, good at uniting people, vigorous and resolute.
Shi Xiang squinted his small eyes, and his smile lines spread on his face one after another, which was very comfortable.
Mouthful: Alas, I just straightened up. Nothing can be said to anyone. Warm-hearted to everyone, everyone can do things with passion!
The two of you boasted and talked happily, Shi Xiang asked casually: How is Sister Lu recently?
Yu Yuanming paused, but decided to tell bluntly: She didn't seem to be very happy. Not satisfied with this either, not satisfied with that.
The corners of Shi Xiang's mouth turned up, and he said with disdain and mockery: She is satisfied when she comes to be the district manager, right?
Yu Yuanming was surprised: How do you know?
Shi Xiang: How do I know? The whole headquarters knows about it. Those who are dissatisfied with this and that are dissatisfied just want to be their own! But is she qualified enough?
Yu Yuanming understands that the field service and the internal service are different. Lu Chunying used to be a master of big orders, and she also had the ability to form a team. However, education, age, and back-office work experience are all minus.
Sometimes people just can't see themselves clearly, thinking that they can, but in fact they are all delusions.
Others who think they are smart and make trouble left and right don't know the intentions, but in fact, everyone knows it, but they just save face for you and don't break it.
Now Shi Xiang directly said it thoroughly, which shows that everyone understands.
Shi Xiang told Yu Yuanming: Don't mess with her. Although something went wrong with the company, it was still good. Some things at the top are inconvenient to tell you, but maybe there will be new changes after a while.
There is a report in the newspaper that also talks about the company's contradictions, don't get involved.
The company is already dealing with it.
The headquarters in Malaysia will also send someone to coordinate, and our days will get better and better.
Trust me, brother!
After speaking, he patted Yu Yuanming's shoulder heavily.
Looking at Shi Xiang's distant back, Yu Yuanming fell into deep thought.
Yu Yuanming, who was pondering, didn't know that in Gongzhou City, a friend not far from him was also pondering.
This friend is Meng Fan, the former department manager, who is smoking a cigarette and reclining on the sofa, his white shirt and tie pulled open, and he is loose.
His eyes didn't close, he stared at the ceiling. stared at it without blinking, and studied the patterns on the monotonous aluminum ceiling thoroughly.
After a while, he finally took out his mobile phone, pressed out the address book, and looked through them one by one.
finally turned to the row at the bottom with the letter "Y" and saw Yu Yuanming's name. He dialed the phone number he hadn't called in a long time.
As soon as Yu Yuanming answered the phone, Meng Fan instantly smiled all over his face, and his voice was full of joy and joy: Oh, Yuanming!
Yu Yuanming didn't like this kind of false flesh and numbness, but he was also familiar with Meng Fan being this kind of person, so he naturally replied: Mr. Meng, don't come to be harmed? I'm still doing insurance!
Meng Fan: It's all in the same city, you just come to see me!
Yu Yuanming: Haha! You are a big boss, there are constantly beautiful women around you, and there are a large group of brothers. Where do you need me?
Meng Fan: No, no, no, you are unique in my mind! Your professionalism and spirit, learning ability and enthusiasm are incomparable to others. Seriously, how have you been doing?
Yu Yuanming: Hmm...... Not so good. There are many problems with foreign-funded companies, mainly because I am not capable enough.
Meng Fan: With your ability, you can find food anywhere. Insurance is good, but times are changing. Have a chat?
Yu Yuanming: Where are you? I'll come to visit you.
Meng Fan: You don't have to be polite between brothers. Our company is located on Haosheng Road, next to the famous radio and television center. It's easy to find, just call me when you come over.
Yu Yuanming: Okay. Come over when you have time.
Meng Fan: We don't need to talk to each other, right? Come when you have time? Just say when you have to do it in the last few days?
Yu Yuanming was forced into a corner: Eh, then the afternoon after tomorrow!
The two agreed, Meng Fan hung up the phone, pondered for a while before getting up and shouting: Dai Xi, come here.
Just listen to the voice outside: Okay. But in a minute, a big fat man came in, with a pair of glasses on his white square face, and his expression looked like that of the famous entrepreneur Jiang Nanchun. Although the yellow shirt is loose, there are still some sweat stains, after all, May in Gongzhou is already the peak of heat. Of course, it is not as hot as July and August, but the difference is that there is air conditioning in July and August, and most companies or families will not turn on air conditioning in May. It is basically impossible for this meaty person not to sweat.
Dai Xi came in a little casually with a sense of respect: What is the matter? Mr. Meng
Meng Fan raised his hand and pointed: You sit down, I have something important to tell you.
