Chapter 7 One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves
"Leaders and guests, today we are gathered together to witness the eighth year of the PCFs Club, in these eight years-" On the rostrum of the large conference room, a young man in his thirties was giving a passionate speech.
"That is Tian Qing, the executive deputy general manager of the company, graduated from Harvard Business School, and was recruited by Mr. Fan to be the vice president, and he is basically in charge of the company's regular affairs, with an annual salary of 600,000 yuan." Ouyang Xiaowei whispered beside Fan Wuxi.
Fan Wuxian nodded, and commented expressionlessly, "It looks good, and the language is very infectious, so it's worth the price." β
Because Fan Ting was going to show up at the cocktail party, she was separated from Fan Wuxi, because she was afraid that Fan Wuxian would not be familiar with the company's internal and external affairs, so she specially arranged Ouyang Xiaowei, who worked in the external liaison department and was very familiar with the company's personnel and the units she often dealt with, to be the guide for him.
Ouyang Xiaowei didn't like the work given to her by Mr. Fan very much, but the people in the External Liaison Department basically had something to do, so she was relatively free, so she had to face the difficulties.
Fan Wuxian listened to Ouyang Xiaowei introduce him to the guests and company personnel in the conference room, and asked with some uncertainty, "Sister Xiaowei, I think you don't seem to be very friendly to me. β
"How could you say that?" Ouyang Xiaowei felt a little strange, she had been doing external contact for some time, and the transformation of facial expressions was still relatively in place, although she really didn't like to be with Fan Wuxi, but it was impossible to put her mood on her face? How the hell did he see it?
Fan Wuxian smiled and said, "The service industry is important to be attentive. Although you are smiling, you can tell at a glance that you are smiling and not smiling, but fortunately you are not smiling with a knife, otherwise I would not dare to follow you. β
When Ouyang Xiaowei heard Fan Wuxi's evaluation, she was a little angry, what does it mean to be smiling and not smiling! To use this kind of word to describe a temperamental beauty is simply a slander of Hongguoguo!
"Yes! Ouyang Xiaowei's lips didn't move, she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, and said fiercely, "You are simply a broom star to me!" As soon as I touch you, I'm out of luck! Mr. Fan also asked me to greet you, what kind of good mood can I have for me? β
"I can't say that, at least I'm still a handsome guy, standing by your side, I'm still very worthy." Fan Wuxi's skin is still relatively thick, especially after meeting Ouyang Xiaowei, I don't know how to like to watch her eat deflated.
"You're still handsome?" Ouyang Xiaowei looked at the sky and said incredulously, "At most, it's half a child!" Mr. Fan, are you an adult? β
At the mention of this stubble, Fan Wuxian suddenly made a sad face, scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time, and then replied, "It is difficult to find an accurate answer to this question, although I may be a little younger than you in terms of biological age, but in terms of mental age, I have experienced vicissitudes." β
"Hmph, it's the first time I've heard such a ridiculous statement." Ouyang Xiaowei wrinkled her nose slightly, 100,000 unbelieving.
The two of them walked around the hall, Ouyang Xiaowei was not as repulsive as before, she introduced the people she met to Fan Wuxian one by one, of course, quietly.
At this time, another middle-aged man in his forties, who was about forty years old, came to the stage and said something, only to see that the audience immediately responded with warm applause.
"Who is this man?" Fan Wuxi felt a little strange, what this person said was neither fresh nor exciting, it was really strange.
Ouyang Xiaowei glanced at the man and said in a low voice, "A director of the Ministry of Electronics Industry usually has a close relationship with our company, so he can be regarded as a counterpart leader." β
Oh, no wonder. The county officials are not as good as the current management, these people are qualified to eat the master of the card, of course they have to serve well.
There are a lot of reporters from the media, on the one hand, everyone has seen the graphic display of the PCFs club, on the other hand, they also have questions about the company's development direction in the next few years, so a reporter from a newspaper asked, "May I ask Mr. Tian, as a representative and leader of private enterprises, what are your plans for the company's future development?" In the next three years, will PCFs' development strategy be austerity, conservative, or aggressive? What is your assessment of the current changes in the domestic economic situation? β
After hearing this, the hall suddenly fell silent, which is equivalent to testing the reaction of private enterprises to the policies implemented by the above, especially for large companies like PCFs, whose backlash is very representative of the feelings of most private enterprises.
Sure enough, after Tian Qing heard this question, the expression on his face stiffened, and then he smiled and said, "For the question raised by this friend, I would like to emphasize one point first, we are a foreign-funded enterprise, not a domestic private enterprise in the simple sense. We PCFs Club is a large company that strictly abides by business rules and abides by the laws of Chinese mainland, and law-abiding operation is our consistent philosophy, so all our business activities are carried out within the scope of the current policy. We will not touch anything that is not allowed by the current laws and regulations. β
Then someone asked, "We are well aware of what PCFs has achieved over the past eight years, can you give us some hints on where to go in the next few years?" β
Tian Qing replied with a smile, "Our company's development strategy has always been formulated by Mr. Fan himself, and I am just a specific executor of the strategy. After all, I'm just a salaryman, hehe! β
Everyone laughed knowingly, and they knew very well that the entire PCFs Club was actually a private enterprise, and only Fan Ting, the general manager of the company, was the only one who counted. Of course, they didn't know that before Fan Ting, who was called Mr. Fan, there was also a freak Fan Wuxi.
It's no wonder that when Fan Wuxian was in China, the PCFs Club was just starting, and only the students employed were Peking University students, and after so many years, there were actually very few Peking University talents left, and most of them still chose to work in the units assigned by the state after graduation. Nowadays, most of the employees of the PCFs Club are recruited within three years, and it is reasonable not to know Fan Wuxi.
But Fan Ting also mentioned to Fan Wuxian that the employees who stayed in the company when they started their own businesses together were basically the CEOs of the branches responsible for the sales channels of one or several provinces at this time.
It is only because of the recent domestic economic situation that people's hearts are somewhat unstable, and it is easy for foreign enemies to take advantage of them.
Now the first problem to be solved by the company is to pull back people's hearts, so that the company can work together and return to the fast lane of development. This problem is indeed not so easy to solve.
If you want to do many things well, you don't just rely on your own heart, but the right time, place and people, all of which are indispensable.
"Are you hungry?" Fan Wuxi suddenly asked Ouyang Xiaowei.
"No?" Ouyang Xiaowei wondered why Fan Wuxian would ask herself this question.
"I obviously heard your stomach growling, and I still didn't admit it, sister, you are not honest." Fan Wuxian pouted.
Ouyang Xiaowei's face was flushed when Fan Wuxian said it, and she really wanted to hold down Fan Wuxian and strangle him to death, but unfortunately this was just an unrealizable luxury, but what Fan Wuxian said was indeed the truth.
Because in the morning, she was still a little uncomfortable, so Ouyang Xiaowei didn't eat breakfast, at this time, the people on the stage were talking at length, and most of the people below had empty stomachs, and Ouyang Xiaowei's stomach rang twice very uncontrollably, although the voice was very low, but it still called Fan Wuxian to hear.
"Let's go find something to eat." Fan Wuxian waved his hand and said to Ouyang Xiaowei.
"Not really, right? I'm still at work! Ouyang Xiaowei said in her heart that everyone else was busy, if she followed the man, oh, followed the boy and ran out to eat, which made others see what to say! But my stomach is really hungry, and this heart is really entangled, and I am really in a dilemma.
The structure of the office building of pcfans is like this, below is a three-story hall with a large area, which is used for reception, catering and conferences, and the upper fifteen floors are office areas, of which the upper three floors are the office areas of senior staff, and the top floor is naturally Fan Ting's exclusive office area.
Below the conference room was the person in charge of catering affairs, Fan Wuxian couldn't help but say, he directly took Ouyang Xiaowei's hand and walked out, not giving her a chance to think about it at all.
The moment Ouyang Xiaowei's hand was pulled up by Fan Wuxian, she felt as if she had been electrocuted, she had never been in such close contact with a different surname, her brain was suddenly a little blank, and she was so stupidly pulled by Fan Wuxian to the catering department on the second floor, only to suddenly react.
"Why are you holding my hand?!" Ouyang Xiaowei was a little annoyed and blushed.
"If you don't pull you, will you go?" Fan Wuxian had a natural expression on his face.
In the hall of the catering department, all kinds of things have been prepared for dinner, except for the hot dishes, desserts and appetizers have been served, and several waiters are walking around the hall to see if there are any omissions, no one thought that someone would come down to rub the rice at this time.
"You don't want to eat the food on the table, do you?" Ouyang Xiaowei saw that Fan Wuxian didn't mean to go to the kitchen, and suddenly asked in surprise.
"Be quiet, you're caught trying to eat?" Fan Wuxi first stopped Ouyang Xiaowei, and then said slowly, "I'm also studying the company's catering production level, by the way, try the taste, as an employee of the external liaison department, it is also necessary for you to try it together to see if you can make any suggestions on the current dishes." β
"But if you do this, the kitchen doesn't know, and what kind of impact will it have on the company if people find out that something has been eaten later?!" Ouyang Xiaowei was a little anxious, and said in her heart that I was as unlucky today as yesterday, and if I kept up with such a broom star, would I let Mr. Fan expel me again? Poor my reward hasn't been received yet!
"Don't worry, I'll be very skillful." Fan Wuxian turned back to her and smiled.
It's so exciting! Ouyang Xiaowei was electrocuted again by Fan Wuxian's smile, and before she came back to her senses, she saw that Fan Wuxian very quickly pulled out a fork placed next to her, picked up a plate placed on the cake, and gently threw it upward, only to see that the cake suddenly left the plate and flew into the air, as if by magic, Fan Wuxian spun the bottom of the cake with a fork, and then easily caught the cake on the plate, even the position did not change, it was as good as ever.
"How?" Fan Wuxi raised his fork and asked Ouyang Xiaowei.
Ouyang Xiaowei looked at the cake on the fork, and threw herself to the ground in admiration, "Except for the lack of cream and fruit, I really can't find any fault." β
Fan Wuxi's face suddenly turned red, he didn't have the ability to spin off the cream without changing the shape of the cake, this was a little too difficult.
But Ouyang Xiaowei said again, "But I don't like to eat cream." β
Hehe, Fan Wuxian handed the fork to Ouyang Xiaowei, watched her slowly finish the cake on the fork, and then concocted it twice in the same way, which was considered to be half full, and after taking the fork back, Fan Wuxian said with a serious face, "Sister Xiaowei, in fact, eating cake is easy to gain weight." β
Ouyang Xiaowei suddenly became angry, why didn't you say that when I didn't eat just now? Isn't this disgusting?
Before Ouyang Xiaowei could reprimand, Fan Wuxian took a glass of red wine like a trick and sent it to Ouyang Xiaowei, and persuaded him diligently, "It's not easy to digest just eating dried food, sister drink some red bar, this looks good." β
"Of course it's good! These are all authentic French goods, specially shipped from there! "Ouyang Xiaowei hates Fan Wu now, although this guy is not very old, but he is very annoying! But this red wine is very delicious, she drank half of the red wine in the glass in one go, put the glass on the table, and then looked at Fan Wuxian with a blushing face, and said in her heart Such a half glass of red wine, I see how you deal with it?
Of course, Fan Wuxi understood what Ouyang Xiaowei meant, and laughed at her twice, then still took the fork, glanced around, and suddenly locked onto the target, the fork swung out like lightning, and when it was withdrawn, there was already a small thing on it.
Fly! Ouyang Xiaowei really regretted dying, Fan Wuxian actually used a fork to fork a fly! Remembering that she had eaten cake with that fork just now, Ouyang Xiaowei was so sick to her stomach! I just want to slap Fan Wuxian twice to relieve my hatred!
Fan Wuxi looked at Ouyang Xiaowei, smiled with satisfaction, and then easily shook the fork with the fly in half a glass of red wine, lifted it up to see that it was as clean as ever, and then put the fork back in place, and then raised the half glass of red wine and shouted, "What about the waiter?" Come over here! β
Two waiters immediately ran over there, and when they looked at the nameplate on Ouyang Xiaowei's chest, they knew that it was an employee of the company, so they asked, "Is there something wrong?" It's not dinner time yet. β
Fan Wuxian nodded solemnly and said, "Of course I know this, but your work is not meticulous!" You see, flies are flying into the glasses! β
After finishing speaking, Fan Wuxian shook the wine glass, and the waiter's eyes immediately followed the swaying wine, and sure enough, he saw a big-headed fly floating in the red wine, looking like his limbs were struggling, and he was not yet dead, and he was immediately shocked.
"I sprinkled the potion last night, why did I run out today!" The waiter was a little in a hurry, obviously thinking that Fan Wuxian and Ouyang Xiaowei were the staff who came to check, and they really didn't know how to end it.
Ouyang Xiaowei couldn't bear to look at the waiter at this time, because she came to steal the food, and as a result, Fan Wuxian framed the other party, which was really unkind.
Fan Wuxian was naturally embarrassed to go too far, patted the waiter's shoulder, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Young people should be more steady, fortunately, they found it early, and it will be fine if they deal with it quickly, anyway, there are no outsiders." β
When the waiter heard this, he quickly took the half glass of red wine, and looked at the fly with the eyes as if he had seen a class enemy, and was furious.
"By the way, do you have anything to eat in the back? After hanging around outside for a long time, my stomach was a little hungry. Fan Wuxian took the opportunity to say to the waiter.
The waiter nodded hurriedly, indicating understanding, and said quietly, "Don't worry, I'll find you some osmanthus cake, which is guaranteed to be the freshest." β
After the waiter brought the osmanthus cake and then thanked her and left, Ouyang Xiaowei couldn't help laughing, holding her stomach and straightening her waist, it took a long time to ease up, "Why are you so funny?" I have pitted people, and I want people to thank you, I have never seen people like you! β
"Where?" Fan Wuxian bit his fingers and said shyly, "People are serious people." β
After the two of them finished eating the extorted osmanthus cake, the above meeting was dispersed, and people began to walk to the restaurant in twos and threes, all of them looked a little impatient, first looked at where the bathroom was, and the water that should be released, and then went straight to their own positions.
Of course, everyone is a Sven person, so naturally they will not start eating as soon as they sit down, but will always wait for the organizer to arrive and announce the opening of the banquet.
Fortunately, someone soon came to toast, and the leaders also arrived, and as soon as the food came up, everyone ripped open their arms and munched on it.
When the wine was half-drunk, someone suddenly noticed the problem, "Hey, this year's cake is different from previous years?" Is it hollow underneath? β
Ouyang Xiaowei, who was sitting at a table next to her, suddenly laughed secretly, raised her eyes to look at Fan Wuxi, but saw Fan Wuxian turning over the cake on his table with a serious face, and then explained to the person next to him, "Oh, this is the difference in craftsmanship, Europe and the United States, I prefer hollow cakes, and our side is not very popular, so the kitchen has prepared two things, so that everyone can get used to it, it is estimated that by next year, it will become a completely hollow cake!" β
"I see, teachable, teachable!" The man suddenly looked enlightened.
After a while, Fan Ting appeared, accompanied by several executives of the company, toasting next to the table, naturally she just tasted it, and the people who were toasted were often done to the end, which was understandable, after all, she was a female leader, and she was very young, and no one was embarrassed to entangle on this issue, otherwise it would be too bad.
As a result, when the toast arrived at the reporter's table, the guy who was not long-eyed asked Fang Cai's question again, "May I ask Mr. Fan, as a representative and leader of a private enterprise, what are your plans for the company's future development?" In the next three years, will PCFs' development strategy be austerity, conservative, or aggressive? What is your assessment of the current changes in the domestic economic situation? β
Fan Ting glanced at the reporter a little strangely, and the reporter immediately added, "I have asked Mr. Tian about this question just now, and he said that he needs you to answer it, I think Mr. Fan should be able to satisfy the curiosity of our media friends, right?" β
"This question-" Fan Ting groaned, the voices around her quieted down, everyone wanted to know Fan Ting's plan, Fan Ting glanced at Fan Wuxi, only to see that he was holding a chicken leg and struggling, and after feeling Fan Ting looking at her id, she nodded slightly.
"That's a good question!" Fan Ting raised her head and replied confidently, "Recently, due to the relatively strict domestic policy on cracking down on counterfeit and shoddy products, some private enterprises have been closed down on a large scale, and we are also aware of this situation, but I think that the country's reform and opening up policy will not change, and the guidelines and lines set by our chief designer Deng Gong will not waver, and I am full of confidence in this." I believe that private enterprises should enjoy the same space for fair development as state-owned enterprises, and the state will also fully consider that private enterprises are an important supplement to the national economy, so we will carry out a larger move in the next few months to fully integrate all its resources. β
Fan Ting's words have already touched on matters that have never been talked about in the conference hall on the third floor, and they are about the company's major movements, which immediately caused a violent reaction from everyone below, and there were many discussants.
"In order to show our confidence in the national policy, I have temporarily decided to invest another billion yuan for the infrastructure construction of PCFs Club in China." Finally, Fan Ting said.
"Ahh
If what Fan Ting said in the past is still a clichΓ©, just to express her own opinions, then what is being said now is related to the real action of the company, once the surname invested a huge amount of money of one billion yuan in China, put it in any large company, it needs to be carefully considered, and Fan Ting, a girl in her twenties, who has been in charge of the PCFs Club for eight years, has run an ordinary small company into a company with more than 5,000 employees today. What does it mean that the only decision-maker in a large company with branches across the country can easily make this decision?
This shows that the de facto largest private enterprise in China has not been affected by the policy turmoil in the recent period, and its development direction is very clear, that is, to continue to take root in Chinese mainland and continue to be the leader of domestic private enterprises.
Many people in the audience stood up and applauded warmly, since the largest private companies in China have decided to stay in the country for development, then what concerns do we, the much smaller enterprises, have? Anyway, when the sky falls, there is a tall man on top, and the above really wants to take power, and you have to think about how to deal with the behemoth of the PCFANS Club first, right?
It is worth mentioning that it is not only friends from private companies who are welcomed, but also several department-level leaders who originally came to symbolize their surnames to participate in the annual meeting of PCFs, and they also expressed great enthusiasm at this time, and the smiles on their faces are definitely not pretended.
Sensitive reporters have also noticed this while taking these commemorative photos, and some quick-witted guys have begun to reflect, do Fan Ting's words mean that the trend of the policy has begun to change again? Since the leaders of private companies have already taken a stand, the political axe will not chill the hearts of these people, right?
One stone stirs up a thousand waves, and Fan Ting's words did play this role.
And Fan Ting, who saw the effect in the field, was looking for Fan Wuxi's figure at this time, this kid's big idea was still very stable, and he really received a very obvious effect. I believe that tomorrow morning, the media will report this matter, and the political axe will definitely respond in time.
But after Fan Ting saw Fan Wuxi, she felt very depressed, this initiator was picking vegetables for Ouyang Xiaowei beside her at this time, with that kind of courteous look, even Fan Ting, who was an old sister, had not enjoyed it a few times!
This kid, his skin is itchy again, and he is actually soaking his own company's little sister! Fan Ting's teeth couldn't help but creak.
(To be continued)
