Chapter 97 [Preparation]

Lu Xiaorong and Yang Liyang had dinner at a local tea restaurant, and after the meal, they drank tea for a while, and it was almost nine o'clock at the end.

Lu Xiaorong was very satisfied with both the process and the results of this meeting.

After separating from Yang Liyang, she first called Mo Fan and then drove over. When he arrived at the gate of the community, he saw that Mo Fan was already waiting there, so he turned around and stopped in front of the gate.

Mo Fan pulled the car door and sat in the passenger seat, saying, "Do you like outdoor activities again?"

Lu Xiaorong said: "In the past few days, I have always stayed in the house, it is too boring, and I want to go around with you outside. ”

Mo Fan fastened his seatbelt and said, "Let's go." ”

Lu Xiaorong drove to the section of the river where Mo Fan took her last time. After parking the car, the two walked on the embankment, and Lu Xiaorong told Mo Fan about the meeting with Yang Liyang.

After listening to this, Mo Fan praised: "It's not bad, it has begun to take on the style of President Lu." ”

Lu Xiaorong said: "Didn't you just relay the words you said to me at the beginning, are you praising me or belittling me?"

Mo Fan said: "No matter how valuable it is, it has to be said by someone who meets the identity to have an effect." If Yang Liyang either sees that you have a great future, or that the truth is ten times more, she will not be willing to mix with you. ”

Lu Xiaorong said: "Yang Liyang told me that in fact, she also has a lot of opinions about Shen Tai'an, so she is very happy to be able to do it in the sales department." ”

Mo Fan smiled and said, "I believe this is her truth, but in front of Shen Tai'an, she will say a lot about you." ”

Lu Xiaorong said: "She also told me that after I left after singing that day, she said some unpleasant things about me." ”

Mo Fan said: "She is not stupid, she knows that you are a leader who does not like to hold grudges, but she seems honest when she talks about it." ”

Lu Xiaorong looked at Mo Fan and said, "Do you hate such people?"

Mo Fan said: "It doesn't matter if you hate it or not, the main thing is to see if she can help you do things well." In today's society, there has long been no such thing as loyalty in the workplace. In the final analysis, it's all about interests. If you can lead your subordinates to do better and better, of course everyone will support you. If you can't, don't blame someone for throwing you aside. Those with poor character can do this kind of thing in the blink of an eye, and those with good character can only stick to it for a long time. After all, everyone has to support their families, and there is no obligation to go with you to drink the northwest wind. So in essence, there is really no difference between these two kinds of people. ”

Lu Xiaorong sighed softly and said, "You put pressure on me again." ”

Mo Fan smiled and said, "Motivation comes from pressure." Now is the time for you to be high-spirited and energetic, don't sigh if you have nothing to do, I believe you can do a good job. ”

Lu Xiaorong flattened her mouth and said, "What if it doesn't work well?"

Mo Fan said, "Isn't there still me?"

Lu Xiaorong smiled, hugged Mo Fan's neck and kissed him. Although she prefers to deal with the challenges of the future alone, when she heard Mo Fan's words, she felt very down-to-earth, two people and one person are very different in the end.

After kissing for a moment, Lu Xiaorong let go of Mo Fan and looked around.

Mo Fan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Our future boss won't have the leisure to come here every day." ”

Lu Xiaorong said: "If she sees it again, it will be embarrassing." ”

Mo Fan said: "What's so embarrassing? We didn't do anything illegal, no matter how powerful the boss is, he can't control us after work, not to mention that she is not the boss now." ”

Lu Xiaorong smiled, grabbed Mo Fan's arm and continued to stroll.

Mo Fan said: "When you choose people, don't miss Qiu Yan." ”

Lu Xiaorong was puzzled: "Does it have to be like this?"

Selecting others, of course, is to prepare for the team of the new department in the future. And Mo Fan asked her to pull Qiu Yan up, obviously for other purposes.

Mo Fan said: "It seems that you have a different opinion. ”

Lu Xiaorong said: "It's been a long time, and she's just a chess piece." Besides, if it weren't for that, we might not be where we are now. ”

Mo Fan said: "You are confusing cause and effect. Pointing to the brilliant lights in the distance, "There are many buildings in that area that were left behind after the invasion of the great powers. We have come out of the imperial era and have today's economic development, don't we also have to thank them?"

Lu Xiaorong pursed her lips and said, "Okay, what you said is right. But didn't you tell me at lunch that doing this project now is to lay the foundation for future work, and there is no point in deviating from this purpose?"

Mo Fan said: "It's not contrary at all, I'm talking about laying a foundation is not just work experience." Wooing Yang Liyang shows that you don't care about past suspicions, so that more people will be willing to do things for you. Killing Qiu Yan can tell everyone that you have a bottom line, will not tolerate betrayal, and have the means to clean up such people. ”

Lu Xiaorong was silent for a while, and said, "Is this called the combination of grace and power?"

Mo Fan said: "Almost, if you want to be a leader, you must have this hand." Don't be annoyed, doing it once can eliminate a lot of trouble. ”

……

……

At work the next day, Lu Xiaorong called several supervisors to her office and explained to them some things about the project of Weisheng Real Estate.

In addition to Yang Liyang, the other three supervisors were disappointed when they heard that they did not involve performance share, and they could only get a little overtime bonus for participating in this project.

However, they did not show it, and verbally expressed their support. Probably this is the new official of "Mr. Lu", so what he deliberately wants to do is different from Mr. Shen, anyway, it has nothing to do with him, so let her go. They don't care about who Lu Xiaorong wants to choose.

Subsequently, the directors of each group conveyed the instructions of the "acting director" Lu Xiaorong to the team members, and most of them were also not interested when they heard it. Only the salesmen whose performance is in the middle and lower reaches feel that the overtime reward is also an off-share income, and they still have a certain enthusiasm for participation.

Lu Xiaorong's competition report contains an operating model for a project similar to Weisheng Real Estate. After participating in the competition, she has been supplementing herself, and from time to time she also asked Mo Fan to help with some case deductions, and the relevant business thinking has matured a lot.

There are no competitors to this project, which is much simpler. In addition to the information sorted out by the operation department, Lu Xiaorong estimates that there are five or six helpers to assist her, working three hours after work every day, plus weekends and rest days, and she can almost do it in a week.

But last night Mo Fan gave her a piece of advice. Since it is for the follow-up work, there is no need to take into account the saving of human resources, and those who are interested can try it, and the right is to select and train new people. At the same time, the project was complicated by adding two hypothetical competitors, so that a full simulation of the business process could be carried out.

Lu Xiaorong was worried at first that this would make the stall too big and increase a lot of unnecessary human capital, which would make people think that she was so happy and used chicken feathers as arrows, creating a bad impression on the upper echelons. Although the sales department and the headquarters are not together, what is happening here will definitely be clear there. And after this project is completed, she will definitely have to make a work report to the above.

Mo Fan told her that from the perspective of the company's sustainable development and human resource development, this can be regarded as maximizing benefits. This kind of semi-actual simulation exercise is not only risk-free, but also much lower than the company's current newcomer training model. In addition, the sales department will definitely be downsized in the future, and it is better to bring some people to the new department than to lay them off, at least not to be said to be a dead rabbit and a dog.

From the beginning of the competition report, Lu Xiaorong was extremely convinced of Mo Fan, so she listened to his suggestion and started it with great fanfare.

She didn't ask her supervisor to recommend people to her, but instead signed up on her own. Salespeople who are willing to participate in this project can leave her a message through MSN.

In addition to the low pay, the fact that the working hours are after work hours and on days off also discouraged some people, and in the end only 16 people expressed their intention to participate.

In fact, this number is already quite a lot, at least it exceeds Lu Xiaorong's expectations. The four sales groups she supervised, Hu Dawei, Li Bin, Qiu Yan and others all signed up.

In addition, Lu Xiaorong also called Xie Yuwen to the office and asked her about her intentions.

Xie Yuwen doesn't want to be the front desk all the time, of course she won't miss this opportunity, not to mention that Lu Xiaorong is still working under her, which can be described as a double surprise for her. After coming out of Lu Xiaorong's office, she was still a little dizzy in her head, feeling like she had suddenly won the jackpot.

After getting off work that day, Lu Xiaorong convened the first working meeting in the conference room. Sixteen salesmen, plus Xie Yuwen, Yang Liyang and herself, a total of nineteen people, the team is quite large.

Lu Xiaorong introduced the specific situation of the project, and then began to group people and assign work tasks.

Salespeople usually work in silos, and they can't help but feel a little unfamiliar and uncomfortable with this kind of teamwork style. Therefore, Lu Xiaorong's first job is to deal with the coordination of internal personnel. This is also a challenge for her.

A lot of people is powerful, but at the same time, it also adds a lot of trouble. To borrow the theory of Granciunas (Note 1), it can be argued that as the number of subordinates increases, the troubles caused by it increase exponentially.

So this does not mean that more people are better, the size and efficiency of a team depends on the leader of the team in many cases. There are always very few high-end management talents who can reach the level of "the more, the better" like Hanxin.

If, according to Lu Xiaorong's original idea, only four or five people would do this project, of course, things would be much simpler, but a good opportunity to accumulate management experience would be lost.

The new department works in a way that places a strong emphasis on teamwork and is by no means as loose as the sales department. As the head of the department, she must have the ability to handle such complex matters, which is one of her main tasks.

Fortunately, Lu Xiaorong's preparation was quite sufficient, and with Yang Liyang's assistance, the work was carried out relatively smoothly. Of course, she would give more credit to her advisors.
