Chapter 43: Housewarming

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's the hottest month of the year.

Taisheng South Road is still the same Taisheng South Road, the sycamores on both sides still set up a green canopy, the trees are still cool and comfortable, and flocks of sparrows are still flying up and down every day, knowing that they are always crying. But this August is so different from last August's Taisheng South Road, there are no more casual people on both sides of the street to enjoy the shade, play chess, and chat, and instead are hurried customers and busy store clerks. Last year, there were five communication stores, but now they are basically all communication stores, and the stores are brightly lit and brilliant in broad daylight.

On August 18th, Time Communication and Light and Shadow Communication moved to the office.

The new office is about 400 square meters and is located in the highest Yuntian Building on Taisheng South Road.

Leased in May, it has now been renovated after two months of renovation. The two companies are more than 200 square meters each, separated by a partition wall in the middle, so that they are next to each other but the office is independent and easy to manage. The design of the entire office area was completed by Xiao Song and He Wenxuan, with independent offices, negotiation rooms, conference rooms, and open office areas, but the styles on both sides are diametrically opposed. Time tends to be fashionable and soft, light and shadow focus on technology and movement, and colors, shapes and decorations have a stronger artistic atmosphere.

The company's department setup has changed, and most of the positions of the first employees have changed.

Time Communication: Deng Qiqi is the manager of the administrative department, responsible for the company's daily affairs, personnel recruitment and training, Zou Wenwen is the manager of the finance department and is also in charge of the warehousing department, He Wenxuan is the manager of the publicity department and has added two designers, Liu Yong is the manager of the channel business department, mainly responsible for the telephone business of Y&D company, Xu Jun is the manager of the channel business department 2, mainly responsible for the wholesale business of BP machines in the second-tier cities, and Wu Ping is the manager of the retail business department, mainly responsible for store development and operation management. Wu Gang is the deputy manager of the retail business department, and collaborates with Wu Ping on store management.

Light and shadow communication: Li Jia is the manager of the administrative department, responsible for the company's daily affairs, personnel recruitment, training, etc.; Liu Xuemei is the manager of the finance department and is also in charge of the warehousing department; Peng Yujiang is the manager of the channel business department, mainly responsible for the wholesale business of BP Jitaisheng South Road; Luo Li is the manager of the first store of light and shadow communication, Wang Shufen is the manager of the second store of light and shadow communication, and Zhang Peng is the manager of the third store of light and shadow communication;

What about Tian Tian?

Tian Tian now has a separate office, and she is the deputy general manager of Light and Shadow Communications, assisting Xiao Song in the company's operation and management. She knew that the pressure on her shoulders was getting bigger and bigger, the team was gradually growing and there were many affairs, Xiao Song was not often in the company, and even if he didn't care much about the details of the company, this was already his habit, he was only responsible for arranging Tian Tian's work and asking Tian Tian for results. If the result is not good, the face may immediately change dramatically. According to Xiao Na, Xiao Song is also strange now, since he has been with Yanzi, his personality in life has become better and better, considerate, gentle and patient, and the bad side of his personality has completely shifted to work, such as impatience, self, unreasonableness and even not listening to any advice, etc. After a year of running-in, Tian Tian has gradually become familiar with and adapted to Xiao Song's habits and style.

After summing up, just three sentences, listen to the dialogue, do the right thing, and execute quickly.

10 a.m., large conference room.

Today is the first major meeting between the two companies.

After Xiao Song's big eyes looked around, everyone suddenly fell silent.

"Good morning everyone, today is the first day of use of the new office space, I know all the people here, most of them are our first two batches of employees to the company, in less than a year, you have made great progress, many of you have become department managers today. This is also our original commitment, the speed of the company's development will be very fast, as long as you work hard, as long as you have the ability, the company will have the opportunity to give you. Tian Tian is a typical example, he has been working hard since the first day he joined the company, not only in sales, but also in management. Now, she is the vice president of Light and Shadow Communication, and there will be a bigger platform in the future. Therefore, as long as you all work hard, there are opportunities, but opportunities will only be given to those who are prepared------"

The audience burst into warm applause.

Xiao Song adjusted his sitting posture and continued, "I will mainly talk about two things today, one is why we should invest money to lease the office and decorate the office so beautifully. Many people don't understand, including my wife, who doesn't support it, saying how good it is to use this money to open another store, and you can make money back, and how wasteful it is to spend money in the office! Two reasons, first, the company is developing rapidly, we have now added several new business departments, we need more daily affairs or customer reception, these jobs can not always stay in the store to do, others will think we are shabby, not enough level! Second, the company is the company, we set the starting point very high at the beginning of our establishment, we have also done this in the past year, we must have strength and image, our store image in Taisheng South Road is now the best, so our office must also be the best image. Only by working in a good environment will everyone have a more positive mental outlook and enthusiasm for work. This is the same as the fact that we want to wear new clothes and beautiful clothes every day. The second thing, which is also one thing that I want to emphasize today, is that according to industry sources, the first Big Brother will be launched in three months, and what does this mean? It means that our communications industry will enter a new era, an era of mobile communications! What does it mean for our people in the industry? This is a huge business opportunity! Although the price of Big Brother will be very high now, like the BP machine, the price will always go all the way down. I guarantee that the market space of Big Brother in the future will be much higher than that of BP machines. Think about it, let's just say SC, we have a population of more than 100 million, even if the urban population is at least more than 30 million, first calculated according to the market penetration rate of 10%, this is more than 3 million consumers, in the future an average of 5,000 yuan for a telephone, how much is this? Tens of billions of business! Clear? Tens of billions of billions! So, we all have to work hard to do well in this industry, and the opportunities are not only many, but also very great. Of course, we can see this opportunity, others can also see it, otherwise there would not be so many merchants to open stores on Taisheng South Road this year, everyone is grabbing the position to occupy the wharf, for what? It is not for future business, for such a large market capacity. So, the competition is only going to get bigger and more brutal. Some businesses are now using some unfair competition methods, and they will definitely only get worse in the future. We are not afraid of competition, nor are we afraid of challenges. Because only strong opponents make us stronger. In the next few years, I hope that everyone here can learn at any time, continue to improve, and strengthen themselves while becoming a bigger company, the company can make money, you can make money, and everyone can be the core backbone of the company. Okay, I'll just talk about these two things, we've set up the stage, and then it's time for you to sing. I hope everyone can work hard and sing this big show well and beautifully!"

In the applause, Xiao Song looked at Xiao Na who was sitting next to him.

Xiao Na glanced at Xiao Song, thinking to herself that this brother can always easily heat up the atmosphere, and can always mobilize everyone's enthusiasm and inflate! What else can she say? Can you add a little bit about the implementation of specific affairs? Yes, the division of labor and cooperation have always had problems recently.

"Okay, I'll also talk about two things, the first thing, this thing can be big or big, small can be small, the key is from what point of view! This is the problem of teamwork, in the novel, it is the collaboration within the company, and in the big picture, it is the collaboration between two companies. Since the opening of the first store, we have always emphasized that although the two companies operate independently, after all, we share a lot of resources, and we need to maximize the use of resources. Only in this way can resource efficiency be improved. Let me give you an example that often happens in my current work, that is, product allocation, Time Communication is responsible for the overall supply control, mainly Wenwen and I are in charge. The inventory of light and shadow communication is transferred from our time communication on a monthly basis, but no matter how familiar with the business is, it is impossible to estimate it accurately, and some models of our time communication do not sell well, but light and shadow communication sells very well. The person from Light and Shadow Communication came to transfer the goods, and the people from Time Communication said that they were out of stock. In fact, we have the goods, we want to keep them and sell them, for fear that the light and shadow communication will be transferred away, and the time communication will not be sold. Can Timecom be sold? Definitely, it may take a day, it may take a week, it will sell. This has happened more than two or three times, at least more than five times, because Tian Tian has already reacted to me twice. We don't criticize anyone today, but this kind of thing will not be allowed to happen again in the future, and if it happens, we will hold the head of the department accountable. Many of you are now in management, and now that there are more and more departments, there will only be more and more things to collaborate on. Therefore, you must understand one thing, only by quickly exchanging inventory into cash can you increase the liquidity of funds and control the risk of loss caused by the decline in product prices. No matter which department sells, we must ensure that whoever sells first will tilt the resources to whom, so as to avoid malicious seizure of resources between departments, holding them in their hands and not being able to sell them, which will bring losses to the company. From today onwards, once it is confirmed that such behavior has occurred, it will be severely fined! The second thing, why do we put the offices together, I make it clear again today, is to improve the efficiency of the work cooperation between the two companies, especially when my brother and I are not in the company, the cooperation between the two companies is even worse. Now we put the offices together, also to solve this problem. Everyone should communicate and not show the short-sighted behavior I just mentioned. I reconfirm today that in the future, as long as my brother and I are not in the company, Tian Tian will be the first person in charge, and Tian Tian will coordinate and report directly to me on the affairs of Time Communication. One thing that all of you have to understand is that externally, we are two different companies operating independently. But internally, my brother and I are family. As long as you understand this, you should know how to deal with the cooperation between these two companies, it's as simple as that!"

The atmosphere of the meeting that was still sunny just now is now overwhelmed by Xiao Na's dark clouds, some are buried alone, some are biased to look out the window, and some are looking at Tian Tian, but no one dares to look in the direction of Xiao Song and Xiao Na. Xiao Song has a hot personality, and usually no one dares to find trouble easily, but don't look at Xiao Na, she is a beauty in her twenties, and once she has a temper, she is not much better than Xiao Song.

Why is Shawna now emphasizing Tian Tian's role again?

Because tomorrow, Xiao Song and himself will leave for another week. This time, Xiao Song and Yanzi are going to Wenzhou to attend the opening ceremony of the garment factory. He first went to Hangzhou to meet Lu Hua, then to meet Lu Hua's parents, and finally went to Wenzhou with Lu Hua to meet Xiao Song and Yanzi. Seeing Lu Hua's parents was a matter that had been on the agenda for a long time, but it was delayed until the time of this Wenzhou factory ceremony. The distance between the two is so close, even Xiao Na herself can't find any reason to go. There is another factor, after such a long relationship, although they are far apart, she and Lu Hua can meet at least twice a month, coupled with the usual daily communication, she herself thinks that the relationship between the two is very stable, and it is time to meet Lu Hua's parents.

Early tomorrow morning, the three of them will take the same flight to Hangzhou, Lu Hua and Zhang Jun will go from Guangzhou to Hangzhou first, then Zhang Jun, Xiao Song and Yanzi will go to Wenzhou, and Xiao Na will go to Ningbo with Lu Hua.

This was the last confirmed itinerary only the day before yesterday.

Xiao Na very much hopes that Xiao Song and Yanzi can go to Ningbo with her first, and after meeting Lu Hua's parents, everyone will go to Wenzhou together. Yanzi was happy but Xiao Song disagreed, saying that it was not the right time for him to go with him to meet Lu Hua's parents, and it was best for Xiao Na to go first, and then discuss it in detail according to the development of the situation. Xiao Na was very reluctant to Xiao Song's decision, but after mobilizing Yanzi, there was no way to persuade Xiao Song, so she had no choice but to give up.

If you want to see your in-laws sooner or later, then you can see you if you want to!

Tian Tian knew that Xiao Song and Xiao Na were going to Wenzhou tomorrow, but he didn't know that Xiao Na would go to Ningbo first. But she has become accustomed to this mode of work, whether Xiao Song is not there or Xiao Na is not there, whether she is the position of deputy general manager or not. Is the position important? Important! But without this position, she has to do these jobs. During the period of office decoration, she and He Wenxuan often stayed up until eleven o'clock before they could go back, and a girl didn't even have good skin, what a painful price it was? He Wenxuan was okay, sometimes Deng Qiqi would accompany him here, and sometimes Deng Qiqi would go back to cook him a very warm dinner first. But what about myself? In the past half a month, I can only go home alone, and my shadow has been dragged by the street lamps for a long time------。

When Su Yang was there, he would come to pick her up from work every day, rain or shine. But in the absence of Su Yang for half a month, she had a strong understanding that Su Yang's kindness to herself was like a drizzle of rain moistening everything, and it had already penetrated into every cell of herself. Once Su Yang left, he really couldn't adapt to it, because he was used to Su Yang's kindness to him. She is also a little woman, even under the hard shell, there is a soft heart, a heart that wants to be loved.

Since Su Yang joined Y&D, in order to familiarize himself with the business, he has even shortened the time to practice music at night, which is already quite an easy behavior for Su Yang. She asked Su Yang, and Su Yang said that if he was not familiar with the business, how could he work? He couldn't embarrass Mr. Xiao for Time Communication! In just three months, Su Yang's business ability has made great progress, and he has now begun to take charge of one of the business tasks. Half a month ago, Su Yang was sent to Guangzhou to study for a month, and he will not be able to come back for half a month. No matter how late she worked, she had to drag her tiredness back, but fortunately, there was still dinner that her father had left for her, and her mother was waiting for her to go back and complain, this picture at least let her know that she finally had a home, and that there were still people who were thinking about her.

Since the relationship with Su Yang was confirmed, Su Yang would occasionally go to her house, always once a month. His family agrees with Su Yang. There are two reasons, first, Su Yang's own conditions and family background are good, which is more compatible with her family, and second, Su Yang is good to her and her family. Every time, I bring a variety of gifts, and I can take care of everyone and make everyone happy. At this point, she herself just didn't do as well as Su Yang, she had also seen Su Yang's parents, and she had a good relationship with Su Yang's mother, but Su Yang's father was always tepid to herself, and that attitude was typical of not much with you and not much without you, except for simple exchanges at the dinner table, there was no other. The first few times, she was very worried that Su Yang's father didn't like her, and then Su Yang said that it was okay, his father was this kind of person, and later Su Yang's mother also said that he was this kind of person if he didn't care about him, and he thought that intellectuals were used to it, that is, they loved you to death in their hearts, but they wouldn't say a word to death. Later, after more contact, she found that Su Yang's father was really such a person, and she was at ease.

How good is Su Yang to himself?

First, the two had never quarreled once, blushing once, and the only time she wanted to get angry was when Su Yang hugged her tightly behind her back, making her melt instantly and unable to open her mouth.

Second, never let herself do any housework at home! Saying that she is too tired from work and should rest after work. As for him, he is not so tired from work, so he does all the housework. When she said this, even Xiao Na was envious of this extent, especially Yanzi, who was simply envious to death, because Xiao Song couldn't do housework, but Su Yang was so tall, handsome, so talented, so ------, could actually do housework?" "The man who can cook for his wife is the most handsome!" Yanzi said with his hands folded and closed his eyes.

She herself asked Su Yang, why is she so good to herself?

Su Yang said, "When a man loves a woman, he is willing to pay unconditionally for this woman, so women can and will not have to rely on and have sustenance." When a man doesn't love a woman, a woman has no support, no sustenance, and she can only not. At the end of the day, a man will spoil you as long as he loves you. ”

Tian Tian, you are my God.

And what do I want for the moon in the sky?

The moon is in the sky, the stars are in the sky, and you are the sky, they are already yours.

Thinking about it for herself, Su Yang's words seemed to be fine, more philosophical and logical.

This is Su Yang in life, she loves this Su Yang.

But until now, she still can't understand the other Su Yang in music. This is a lingering heart disease of hers. Su Yang in the music is completely another person, who will drink at two o'clock in the morning, repeat dozens of times for a melody, toss for several days for a lyric, and even hum and hum when walking. The stage in U2 used to be once a week no matter how busy it was, but after going to Y&D, it was not as busy as before, but now it has changed to twice a week. It was the root of his heart. But she rarely goes to U2 to listen to Su Yang sing, because she doesn't quite adapt to the atmosphere there. Another reason is that she is not suitable for Su Yang to be needed by so many people, she has selfishly thought about this question countless times, how good it would be if Su Yang didn't know music, that is, this Su Yang in life is completely her own. The two of them can live a simple and happy life, which is the life she wants. And Su Yang in music is so illusory and unreal, she can't see or catch it, she is always worried that this Su Yang will fly away one day.

His family didn't know that Su Yang was still a professional amateur singer.

Su Yang didn't say it, and she didn't say it.

"Tian Tian, do you have anything else to emphasize?" Xiao Na asked as she turned her head to look at Tian Tian beside her.

"I'm not going to say anything, just be in charge of execution. ”

Tian Tian's thoughts were pulled back by Xiao Na stiffly.

Hey, what's the matter, this divergent thinking has also crossed the line, how can you think of Su Yanglai at such a serious meeting?

"At the end of the meeting, everyone did their work. We won't be back until next week, and Tian Tian will be in charge of the company's management during this time. Xiao Na declared the meeting closed.

Xiao Na left Tian Tian, and when everyone was done, she asked, "What happened to you just now?"

Tian Tian's face was slightly red, and he couldn't hide any trace of his distraction from Xiao Na's eyes, "I don't know why, I suddenly remembered Su Yang just now?"

"How often will he be back?"

"There's still half a month. ”

"Not used to it?"

"One thing, get used to how nice he is to me. ”

"Then get married, right?"

"Married?" Tian Tian was really taken aback by this word, and he had never thought about it.

"Haven't you all met your parents?"

"yes, it's all right. ”

"If it's suitable, get married, Su Yang is really good to you, such an excellent boy is very sought-after, why don't you hurry up and get things done?"

"Let's talk about this ------, later, aren't you all married, I'm in a hurry!"

"I'm going to see Lu Hua's parents tomorrow, and my heart is also up and down?" Xiao Na leaned forward and said to Tian Tian in a low voice.

"What are you worried about, Mr. Xiao. ”

"Am I also nervous and scared?"

"How can you be? You're so good!"

"I'm afraid that their family will force marriage, Lu Hua won't say it, but I've always thought about marriage in my heart, he is twenty-nine, and his family is tight. ”

"Then you will get married, Mr. Lu is such an excellent man, but he is very sought-after, why don't you hurry up and get things done?" Tian Tian smiled and threw back what Xiao Na said just now.

"But I don't want to get married now, at least not this year. ”

"Why?"

"Lu Hua just wants to have children! But now there are too many things, and the company is not on the right track. Let's see again next year. ”

"Swallow doesn't have any children, do you?"

"Swallow wants, it's my brother who doesn't want it, plus swallow is under a lot of pressure during this time, so he didn't have children. But after that time, they will want to have children. ”

"Oh------, I'll only consider getting married if you get married anyway, otherwise I won't get married. Tian Tian said very seriously.

"Okay, let's do it together. ”

"Forget it, you're so high-spec, I'm ------"

"Okay, we'll talk about that later. When Su Yang comes back, you tell him to work harder. Last time I had dinner with Lu Hua and Wang Rui, I heard Wang Rui say that there might be a good opportunity within the year. If he grasps it, it will be easy for him to do it in the future. ”

"Okay, I'll tell him. ”

"Also, you should bother more during this time and keep an eye on Wu Ping and Xu Jun a little closer. ”

"Clear. ”

Li Jia rushed in, "Tian Tian, Mr. Xiao is looking for you and asking you to go to his office." ”

Xiao Na got up at this time, "Go, I'll come over later, we have to discuss things together, and I have to call He Wenxuan." ”

"What's the matter?" Tian Tian asked.

"Let's talk about it later. ”

Xiao Na walked out as she spoke, Tian Tian followed behind and looked at Xiao Na's graceful figure, thinking that if she was a man, she would definitely fall in love with this woman regardless of everything. What parents are still afraid to meet? It should be logical that the parents are overjoyed when they see her!
