Chapter 6: Like a Shot

Shu took a half-day off, took care of everything at home, and then took the bus to work. Her car was sent to the repair shop, and I don't know if it was unlucky to pour out of inertia, and it was exposed to the scorching sun for half an hour, and a taxi was not intercepted, so I had to squeeze the bus - hell, there were so many people who took the bus at noon that the meat was close to the flesh, and every time I stopped, the driver shouted at the people on the bus: "Go back, go back", Shu Neem was glued to the back door, his face pressed against the glass, and he had difficulty breathing all the way to the Chengtou Group.

Chengtou Group is known for its money-savvy projects, which have a place in all the prime locations in the city, while its headquarters are nestled in a nondescript brick-red semi-circular five-storey building designed to highlight the low-key and humble nature of state-owned enterprises – a fool would believe it!

Shu Neem swiped her card to enter the door, and the little girl at the front desk and the security guard Zhao Qiqi glanced at her.

"Something?" , neem is unknown.

"Big deal!" , the little girl at the front desk blinked.

"The second floor is noisy", Lao Zhao pointed to the top of his head.

The second floor is the territory of the company's cultural department and the party branch. Hey, how is it possible, it's too late for Lao Yan to stammer them.

It is rumored that Xu Youcai, the current deputy secretary of the party branch, is the successor of Mr. Qu, not to mention that he is also the vice president of the group, and he has a great chance of winning. Since Lao Yan hugged his thigh, he changed his attitude towards the party branch in the past, and the group declared an advanced unit for the construction of spiritual civilization in the city.

It's hard to imagine that the two departments of the good honey oil blending will clash recently, maybe Lao Yan has an endocrine disorder and goes crazy himself...... Unable to guess why, Shu Nee shrugged and gave up getting to the bottom of it.

The next moment, she knew the answer to the mystery.

Fu Xincheng, deputy editor-in-chief of the new evening newspaper who was supposed to appear at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, ran down the stairs with a blue face, and the reporter Lin Ziqi who followed behind also had a calm face, and coldly greeted Shu Neem who was standing next to the front desk, he stopped his steps, shook his head helplessly, sighed, and turned his head to chase after his boss.

Fu Xincheng walked to the door, turned around suddenly, stared at Shu Neem with his eyes spitting fire, and his fingers almost poked her in the head, "What the hell is Yan Baoxing doing, the new magazine samples are out, and the online trading platform is also in trial operation, he sold it without consulting me, and you, why didn't you talk to me before he made a decision?" At the beginning, you approached me to talk about the proposal to co-launch a new magazine, and no one knows better than you how hard it took to achieve cooperation, and now you say that you will sell it, and don't tell me that you didn't get involved in this transaction! ”

Shu Neem's mouth opened and closed, she couldn't find the right words to describe her shock and anger at the moment, yes, in this transaction, she was innocent, innocent like an idiot, she didn't even know how Lao Yan unknowingly contacted the buyer, and how to hide the news so tightly.

In Fu Xincheng's opinion, Shu Neem and Lao Yan are in the same group, and it is natural for him to be angry at her, but seeing her reaction is more dazed than when he received a call from Lao Yan, he asked in disbelief: "You don't know about this?" ”

Shu Neem grinded his teeth viciously, "If I knew, would he be able to do such a lack of morality!" ”

Fu Xincheng finally calmed down the angry brain and regained a trace of sanity, in terms of position, he and Shu Neem are the same, both of them are eager to break the status quo of being governed by the unit, and are committed to opening up a new career that can have the final say - Fu Xincheng is the second in the newspaper office, and has been a sedan chair bearer for many years, and finally survived the first hand, thinking that the opportunity to take the position has come, who knows that the airborne person lightly picked the fruits of victory that he could not hope for.

Shu Neem's situation is slightly different, she is seeking a way out for the department she works for.

When Mr. Qu was in charge, he liked to put on a show and was keen on face engineering, so he reused Yan Baoxing, who was proficient in this way, and his corporate culture department, up and down, and the people of the group and branches also looked at Yan Gao, even if they despised him as a person, when they met, they had to pinch their noses and call him "Teacher Yan".

The transcendent status of the company's cultural department has attracted a lot of jealousy and jealousy, and people affectionately call Lao Yan a dog behind his back, and even regard the department he leads as a dispensable chicken rib. If Mr. Qu falls, the days of Yan Yaowu's prestige will come to an end, it is difficult to say which set of successors is cute, the recent group personnel changes frequently, some people are promoted and some are demoted, among which the happiest is Yan Baoxing's old opponent Dr. Lu.

Dr. Lu and his Corporate Strategy Development Laboratory are in the process of restructuring the Group's organizational structure, and many departments are facing mergers, and all of a sudden, everyone from senior management to employees is at risk, and the Corporate Culture Department is the first to bear the brunt.

For such a large-scale "strategic adjustment", the more high-sounding official rhetoric is "to meet the challenges of the future with a better attitude, and have to go through the pains of the transformation process", but the discerning people have their own calculations in their hearts, isn't it just a son of heaven and a courtier.

It wasn't once or twice that Lao Yan and Lu Bo publicly said goodbye, Lu Bo held the sword of Shang Fang this time, sharpened his knife and swung it towards high-consumption and low-yield departments and non-core business departments. As the latter, even if the company's cultural department is readjusted, it is just a necessary sacrifice under the "difficult choice".

Neither Shu Neem nor Lao Yan will be killed, as early as when there was an abnormal movement in the group, the two of them pondered to avoid this catastrophe. Shu Neem's thinking is very clear and independent, only in this way can she not have to act tremblingly and obey orders, and she does not have to worry about being laid off because of the change in preferences above, so she wants to start a new magazine, and Lao Yan agreed.

To make a magazine that can be sold, unlike the company's internal magazine and DM magazine, it not only needs money but also a journal number, and Fu Xincheng can apply for the issue number in the name of the new evening newspaper.

After thinking about it, there is something I don't understand.

Fu Xincheng snorted coldly, "It's okay for Yan Baoxing to be shabu-shabu, but he even messed with our newspaper, so don't worry about the issue number!" After speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Shu Neem's face changed several times, he stood for a while, turned upstairs, and broke directly into Lao Yan's office.

"What's the hell?" , Lao Yan looked up in amazement, saw that it was Shu Neem, and tightened his brows.

"Sell the new journal and the online trading platform, and the corporate culture department will not be moved?"

Over the years, his subordinates have come and gone, but it is not unreasonable for Shu Neem's position to climb all the way, she is a smart person, she doesn't need to be dialed, and her heart must have been clear, anyway, the dust has settled, he doesn't mind handing over to his cronies, "What Mr. Xu means is that the stall of our department should not be too big, just focus on the two parts of the company's internal magazine and public relations publicity." In the past, we took the leadership line, but now we take the grassroots staff line, who can say half a word, out of the need for the construction of spiritual civilization, no one can remove our department"

Knowing that what he was going to say next would not help, Shu Neem still couldn't help but ask: "As long as the new magazine gets the investor's money, our department can immediately go out and work alone, and Mr. Qu and Mr. Xu don't have to pay attention to it, it doesn't matter what they mean, the important thing is that the layman leads the insider, and this thing will never happen again!" ”

Lao Yan lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and said irritably: "Are you really so easy to take the money of an investor?" Why do they want to invest money, it's not that our background is the urban investment group! Mr. Xu said that in the future, he would push me into the industry association as the president, and with the background and resources of the industry association, no magazine could be run."

It seems that the conditions promised by Mr. Xu to Yan Baoxing are very generous, so what Yan Baoxing needs to repay is not just the sale of a small new magazine.

Shu Neem gently pulled the corners of his mouth, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "I won't ask where the money from the sale of the new issue and the online trading platform went, I don't think Mr. Xu's appetite will be so small, he must have other plans, do you say, Mr. Yan"

After listening to Shu Neem's words, Lao Yan was choked by the smoke in surprise, and after the cough subsided, he stroked his head uncomfortably, turned his head to look out the window, and whispered: "Mr. Qu's position, Mr. Xu may not be able to sit on it, and Liao Jianguo, who is in charge of project quality management, is also a strong contender......

Shu Neem asked quietly: "So what?"

"So-", Lao Yan's eyes were dark and uncertain, the muscles of his cheeks twitched nervously, and he said with a cruel smile: "So you have to him and make way for Mr. Xu!" ”

"How? Mr. Liao has a good official reputation, and his popularity is also good, and as far as I know, there is no black material, Mr. Yan wants to ...... Nothing? ”

The most shameless face has been torn apart, and Lao Yan doesn't intend to disguise, he took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Didn't Liao Jianguo follow Mr. Qu to Hainan, who can tell whether he received the host's money or not?"

"I can tell me clearly", Shu Neem pretended to be ignorant, "On the trip to Hainan, I followed the whole process, can I not know if I received the money?" However, Mr. Qu accepted the host's kindness and went to Europe to study and investigate."

"That's better", Lao Yan flicked the cigarette ash, "With you, Liao Jianguo can't tell even if he has a hundred mouths"

"You asked me to frame Mr. Liao?"

Lao Yan frowned, "Xiao Shu, you are strict with your words!" ", then laughed again, "At most, let's disrupt the audio-visual, and when Mr. Xu's position is secure, it's not too late to clarify for Liao Jianguo, what we have to do is to have an ambiguous attitude, Liao Jianguo may collect the money or confiscate it, what needs to be considered is the people above"

Shu Neem asked herself if she was not such a noble person, after walking out of the school gate, her conscience also had a lot of flexibility, Rao was so, or was she disgusted by Lao Yan's undisguised meanness, she narrowed her eyes contemptuously, "What if I refuse?" ”

Lao Yan's face turned cold in an instant, and he said in a vicious voice: "Then you have to think clearly, we are in the same boat, I have suffered, you are not much better, without the enterprise culture department, I am still the director of the office, the big deal is to live a leisurely life, do you have a place to go?" Once a person loses power, it is worse than a lost dog, Xiao Shu, I like to work with smart people, you should understand, what is called a dead friend is not a dead poor man! ”

Shu Neem propped up the desk with both hands and lowered his head to look down at Lao Yan, "Teacher Yan, are you underestimating me, or are you looking down on me?" ”

Seeing that Shu Neem seemed to be loose, Lao Yan changed to a consoling tone, "It all depends on your choice to underestimate or overestimate, the car you are driving for now costs a lot, don't worry, as long as we get through this hurdle, we have everything, money, little meaning!" ”

"Then Mr. Yan will wait and see."

Shu Neem returned to her office, her loss and frustration were nowhere to be seen, as if she had been shot, and she heard the sound of her chest shattering.
