Liu Yin, a recent graduate of the Chinese department of a local university, actually reported to work at United Information Company three days earlier than Zhang Zhenrong. The company's personnel department originally wanted to arrange her to be the chief secretary, but Liu Yin applied to work in the front-line marketing department. Sometimes, people's appearance and personality are often very different, Liu Yin looks small and delicate, quiet and quiet, but in fact, her heart is very strong. She was pampered by her parents since she was a child, and she was particularly eager to break into the outside world, but when she was in college, she couldn't resist her parents' requirements to stay in the local area, and after graduation, she didn't want to do secretarial work in the office anymore.

After I went to work in the market development department, I have always heard that Zhao Xiangdong, the general manager of the marketing center, is a legendary figure, and today I finally saw the real person! Liu Yin's heart seemed to be a deer pounding there. It is said that Zhao Xiangdong is the most important cadre of Shen Bin, general manager of the United Information Company, and he was born in a military academy and has a bit of a soldier's demeanor. Because of the success of several major projects he handled, Zhao Xiangdong has a great reputation in the IT industry, and many headhunting companies have thrown olive branches to him, wanting to poach him to foreign manufacturers with high salaries. However, Zhao Xiangdong was unmoved, he was born in a soldier and had a strong sense of serving the country and was unwilling to serve foreign bosses; Second, he was reluctant to leave the brothers he brought out with his own hands, and the marketing department of United Information started from scratch and poured Zhao Xiangdong's efforts for many years.

Liu Yin looked at the personable instructor on the podium, this man with a cold appearance should have an elegant and gentle heart. The straight bridge of his nose sets off the sharpness of his gaze, but in his eagle-like gaze, Liu Yin clearly reads the softness contained in it, which is probably the so-called iron-clad tenderness. Liu Yin observed Zhao Xiangdong with the sensitivity unique to girls, and was a little uneasy for a while, which is about a common problem for girls studying liberal arts.

"Shopping malls are like battlefields, I believe everyone must have heard of this sentence. But what I'm going to tell you today is that doing business, especially project marketing work like ours, is very similar in nature to doing intelligence work. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiangdong paused and picked up a thick book on the podium.

"Look, it's called Fifty Years of the CIA, and it's a book I recommend to everyone. Did you know? In the United States, the CIA's campus recruitment standards are basically the same as those of ABN, and every year they select a group of handsome men and women from the top universities in the United States to send them to training camps to train various agent skills, and then select excellent agents from them and send them to work around the world. ”

Agents, intelligence work, and incendiary speeches suddenly mobilized the emotions of these young people who had just stepped out of school, and everyone seemed to have walked on the way to the expedition, their blood was boiling, and they were eager to try, seeing the warm atmosphere of the scene, Zhao Xiangdong showed a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Why do we say that our work is like intelligence work? This is determined by the complexity of the project marketing itself. To place a large order of millions, tens of millions, we need to contact all levels of personnel from Party A, from the CEO to the grassroots project manager, there may be no less than dozens of people, everyone has different needs and ideas, and within the operator, it is very common for two opposing factions to appear, so we need to face many different people, different information, if there is no excellent intelligence work, we will be like a deaf, blind man led by the nose, how can we win the list! ”

"What I just said is only the internal situation of the customer, and if you add our competitors and partners such as foreign OEMs, the relationship is even more complicated. If we don't do a good job of intelligence, we can't make marketing decisions at all, and we can't even quote a minimum project price! ”

Listening to Zhao Xiangdong's words, Liu Yin found that she was deeply attracted to this man. Oh, no wonder I heard the old salesman in the department say that Zhao Xiangdong's nickname is "James Bond", so it sees, it seems that this person is worthy of his name!

Later, Zhao Xiangdong said something again, but Liu Yin basically didn't listen to it. Her mind has taken a leap, James Bond! What kind of man is this! It's not that we want to learn to do intelligence work, I'll start by collecting your Zhao Xiangdong's intelligence, by the way, I'll borrow the book "Fifty Years of the CIA" from you after class in a while, borrowing and returning books is the best excuse to contact a person. I heard that Zhao Xiangdong often takes new salesmen on business trips in person, and teaches people how to make orders hand-in-hand. If only I had this opportunity, I would definitely do a good job, like the Bond girls next to James!

Thinking of this, Liu Yin's face quietly turned red.

Unlike Liu Yin's feelings, Zhang Zhenrong did not agree with Zhao Xiangdong's talk about intelligence work. Many years later, when the two were drinking together, Zhang Zhenrong also mentioned this matter, and felt that Zhao Xiangdong was quite sensational at that time, and it was useful to deceive the little girl. Of course, later through contact in actual work, Zhang Zhenrong was very impressed by Zhao Xiangdong's marketing management ability, and the two gradually became sympathetic friends, transcending the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

At that time, Zhang Zhenrong's focus was still on the understanding of product technology. Under the structure of the marketing center, the manager of the business development department is Zhao Xiangdong himself, personally with more than 20 business personnel, several of whom are beauties like Liu Yin, and Lao Wang, the manager of the technical support department who is responsible for pre-sales cooperation, is a good man, and Zhao Xiangdong cooperates quite well, and there are more than a dozen engineers in charge below, all of whom are young men. Zhang Zhenrong studied computer science in graduate school, and his foundation was good, so he was arranged to do hardware integration work, because the investment focus of telecom operators at that time was still on hardware equipment, and the demand for application software was not very urgent, so Zhang Zhenrong's work started from hardware, and it was a later thing to do software.

At the end of the one-month training, Zhang Zhenrong and his group of more than 20 newcomers have undergone systematic training in marketing, product technology, financial knowledge and rules and regulations, and are about to go to the front line of the market to work hard.

On this day, it happened to be the weekend, and the company organized everyone to engage in collective activities, and the destination was Qingshui Stream in the western suburbs.

Since Zhao Xiangdong was on a business trip, this event was led by Lao Wang.

After more than an hour's drive, more than 20 handsome men and women full of youthful vitality came to a verdant canyon. There is a stone path that winds up the canyon, and on one side of the path is a mountain stream full of pebbles, and the summer is the most abundant time of the rainfall in the mountains, so the sound of the murmuring water is endless, and the sound of the flowing water is in harmony with the song of unknown birds, and there is no shortage of tall trees on both sides of the canyon, which is the home of various birds. Strange to say, the sound of the stream washing and the sound of mountain birds chirping complement each other, but it highlights the tranquility of the canyon even more.

Girls and boys dressed in colorful casual clothes and carrying a variety of backpacks on their shoulders climb up the mountain trails. As if they couldn't bear to break the tranquility in the green mountains and valleys, everyone did not make a loud noise, but lined up in a long line and struggled to the top of the mountain. From time to time, someone in the team stopped to record the beautiful mountain scenery with their digital cameras.

Zhang Zhenrong walked at the back of the team, not because he was physically exhausted and backward, he was almost the strongest one in this group of newcomers, walking behind was the meaning of the palace, and the backpacks of several girls with weak physiques had fallen on his shoulders. Walking in front of him were Liu Yin and another girl, the two of them whispered for a while, and for a while they laughed softly for nothing, and once, Liu Yin secretly glanced back at Zhang Zhenrong, as if she was afraid that he would hear something.

"Beauty, what are you talking about?" Zhang Zhenrong has completely lost the embarrassment when he met Liu Yin for the first time, after all, after so many days of training, everyone is familiar with it.

"Hmph, if I don't tell you, you are not allowed to eavesdrop!"

"Surely you're talking about which pretty boy again?"

"Cut, you boys are so boring, we're talking about work."

The devil believes it! Zhang Zhenrong pursed his lips, the little girls now, full of love and love, are all so eccentric, I really don't know how avant-garde their thinking is. Look at the training class that day, Liu Yin and the girls looked at Zhao Xiangdong with wrong eyes, thinking of this scene, Zhang Zhenrong's heart was a little sour.

After more than two hours of travel, they finally reached the top of the mountain. On the top of the mountain, there is a pool of water that resembles a heavenly pool, the water of the pool is clear, but there is no bottom. There is a quaint pavilion in the corner of Qingtan, and the pond water opens a gap in the rock next to the pavilion, swoops down, forming a small waterfall, which is the source of Qingshui Stream, so the pavilion is inscribed with the words "Qingshuiyuan".

Due to the beautiful scenery on this side of the pavilion and the fact that there are several huge rocks suitable for taking pictures, the girls and boys went there to take pictures. Liu Yin also climbed one of the boulders and asked the little girl to take a few photos of her. However, due to the high rock and the petite stature, Liu Yin accidentally broke her foot when she came down.

At first, Liu Yin endured the pain in her ankle and insisted on walking down the mountain with a limp. However, it was easier to go up the mountain and difficult to come down, and after a while, her face was covered with sweat, and her lips were about to bite and bleed. Unable to support it any longer, she sat down on a rock on the side of the road.

Lao Wang, the leader of the team, saw that the situation was not right, so he let Zhang Zhenrong carry Liu Yin down the mountain, which was exactly what Zhang Zhenrong couldn't ask for. The little girl refused at first, but then she couldn't do it anymore, so she had to half-push and half-lie on the young man's back. Although she tried her best to maintain a balanced posture and not let her body completely fit the young man, Zhang Zhenrong really felt that there were two elastic forces transmitted to her back from time to time. This looming feeling is so beautiful that many years later, Zhang Zhenrong will have an irrepressible urge every time he recalls the scene at that time.
