Chapter III

After a week of struggle by the whole group, the plan was finally completed, and Lin Ai looked at the PPT he had done, and he burst into tears, thinking that he must win this customer.

When I first entered the industry, I was still a novice, and I had to rehearse my proposal more than a dozen times every time before I dared to go on stage. Years later, Lin Ai still maintains this habit.

Because she knew very well that not only the content of the proposal was important, but also the atmosphere of the proposal, especially the beginning. So she rehearsed over and over again, just like a sketch actor, thinking about where to add some baggage appropriately.

Finally, because the plan is a creative idea for young people, I added a small video I shot at the beginning on a whim.

"Perfect", after 2 hours of drills, Lin Ai was finally satisfied, took out the clothes he proposed to wear tomorrow, and climbed into bed early.

The next day, Lin Ai looked at his energetic face, and sure enough, going to bed early would make his complexion very good.

Put on a small suit at the bottom of your box, tie up a ponytail that has not been tied for a long time, bring a concise silver earrings, take a selfie in the mirror, and post a message on a social networking site that no friend knows, "Sprint to a big order today, my mother bless me with success", stepped on high heels and went out with confidence.

The proposal was set at 10 o'clock in the morning, Lin Ai looked at the time, It was expected that it would take 40 minutes to take a taxi, and now it was almost 9 o'clock, Lin Ai was worried about being late, so he decided to give up breakfast and take a taxi directly to Shang Yang Company.

Fortunately, fortunately, there are many shops under the company, Lin Ai just wanted to enter the door but met his colleague, Zhang Yuan, the person in charge of the sales team, this time the customer is his main contact, so the proposal should also be present.

"Hey, love, have you had breakfast", Zhang Yuan came out of the drink shop.

"Hey, I'm about to buy something to drink", Lin Ai Ai also greeted him.

"I bought it just now, and by the way, I bought you a cup of cold brew tea, remember that you don't like coffee", Zhang Yuan handed another drink in his hand to Lin Aiai.

The relationship between the sales department and the creative department is a bit like a comrade-in-arms, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, and the success or failure of the proposal is more in the hands of the creative department in addition to the early sales contact, so the sales department often "pleases" the people in the creative department, and it is not uncommon to buy a drink or something.

But Lin Ai actually doesn't like this, she feels that she is just responsible for her own performance, and she doesn't have to put on a high-minded appearance, but it is not appropriate to refuse at this time.

"Thank you, please drink next time", Lin Ai took the drink with a smile and went to the company with Zhang Yuan.

Today's Mr. Duan has not been in a good mood since he came in the morning, although he is not usually a leader who is close to the people, but he is quite gentle, today can obviously be described as gloomy, assistant Liu Yi thought to himself, the steps of entering the office today are cautious.

"Mr. Duan, today is the draft of the promotion plan of the new product, starting at 10 o'clock, do you want to listen to it", the same level of cases is generally not very involved, but the marketing director said that Mr. Duan asked last time, and the assistant must fulfill the responsibility of reminding.

"Well, I see", Duan Jin responded, his expression uncertain.

The assistant hurriedly retreated and left the high-risk area.

Duan Jin's mind was a little confused at this time, but it was extremely clear. After graduation, he heard about Lin Ai and Wei Lin's breakup, but 5 or 6 years have passed, isn't it very normal for Lin Ai to fall in love again, and it is even more reasonable to fall in love in the office.

In the morning, the picture of the two talking and laughing on the side of the road appeared in my mind, and the strange tingling feeling appeared in my heart again.

"It's really useless", Duan Jin looked down on himself a little, after so many years, she would still be upset because of her, and the other party might not even know about her existence.

Why?

"Xiao Zhou, where will the proposal take me", Duan Jinmeng stood up from his seat and shouted to the door.

Assistant Xiao Zhou hadn't heard Mr. Duan's voice so excited, so he hurriedly opened the door and led people over, secretly lighting a piece of wax in his heart to the agency company that wanted to propose today, and he was going to suffer when he met the boss who was in a bad mood.

Lin Ai arrived at the conference room of the proposal in advance, and after debugging his PPT, Shang Ying's people came in one after another.

In addition to Lin Ai's meeting with the previous marketing director Sica, there were also a few men who came, who were introduced by Sica as people from the product and operation department, and after greeting each other, they distributed the proposal in their hands to everyone.

Sia looked at the time and saw that the time was about the same, and the people were almost there, and felt that Duan Jin should not come, so she signaled that Lin Ai could start.

"OK", Lin Ai sighed, and was about to start proposing, but the office door was suddenly pushed open.

Lin Ai's position was facing the door, and as soon as the door was pushed open, he collided with the eyes of the visitor.

Even though he expected that he might meet an acquaintance, he really didn't have much hope, and Lin Ai could be stunned for the first time to describe it.

The person who came was Duan Jin, the class leader who was more serious than the head teacher, and the two had not seen each other since graduation, which made Lin Ai feel familiar and unfamiliar.

Duan Jin's face almost didn't change much, but his temperament was much calmer than that of high school, and after entering the door, there was an invisible aura, and the people who were originally lazy in their seats straightened up.

"Hello boss", Shang Ying and everyone greeted one after another.

After Duan Jin entered the door, he first glanced at Lin Ai, who was standing, then looked away and sat straight to the empty seat.

Standing there, Lin Ai seemed to be choked, his heart was inexplicably a little low, and his eyes drifted away from Duan Jin's body in disappointment.

Sia stood up and introduced to everyone: "This is the boss of our company, Mr. Duan, the proposal company attaches great importance to this proposal, I hope you can surprise us."

Zhang Yuan immediately stood up, like Duan Jin stretched out his hand, "Hello Mr. Duan, I am Zhang Yuan, the head of the sales department", with a kind smile on his face.

Duan Jin's eyes just drifted coldly, and with a hmm, he turned his eyes to Lin Ai, and said in a colder voice, "Let's start"

Suddenly, the scene was silent.

It's over, the field is so cold that it can't be colder anymore, and Lin Ai has not met a serious Party A for so many years, but it is still the first one to be so unpolite.

Lin Ai's brain is rapidly how to heat up the field, but it may be that when he thinks of the feeling of being dominated in high school, his brain seems to be frozen, and his mouth seems to be confused.

It's absolutely not okay to open your mouth now, Lin Ai told himself that he needed time to be emotional, so he walked to Duan Jin's side with the printed manuscript in his hand and handed it to him, "Mr. Duan, this is the paper version of the plan."

Duan Jin's brows furrowed when he heard the salutation, but he quickly let go and took the manuscript in Lin Ai's hand.

Lin Ai breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and quickly sorted out his emotions, quickly pressed the page-turning pen in his hand, and skipped the first page of his funny video, at this time the funny was obviously out of time.

According to the conventional proposal logic, Lin Ai first introduced the background of the project, mainly to show the company's understanding of the purpose of the project, which is the best starting point.

Who knew that Lin Ai had just introduced two sentences, and Duan Jin said, "Skip this part, we know the purpose of the project."

Duan Jin flipped through the manuscript in his hand, his tone was still very cold, "I don't need to talk about insight, just talk about your core strategy and execution"

Lin Ai felt that he was about to suffocate, the rhythm of the proposal was completely disrupted, and it would be very smooth from insight to the core strategy, but if he did not undertake it after being omitted, the persuasiveness of the core strategy would be greatly weakened.

Duan Jin lowered his head and waited for a while and heard no sound above, so he raised his head, and looked at Shanglin Ai with a little flustered eyes, as if he was caught reading a novel by himself in high school.

My heart softened unconsciously, the corners of my mouth turned up slightly, and my tone softened a lot, "Don't be nervous, tidy up for 1 minute before starting."

The boss was compassionate and comforting, and Sica also felt sorry for the little girl, so she also opened her mouth and agreed: "I read the insight part of the plan, it is very accurate, and I am looking forward to the creativity of the plan", and gave Lin Ai an encouraging look after speaking.

Lin Ai glanced at Sica gratefully.

The latter proposal was relatively smooth as a whole, Duan Jin occasionally glanced at the plan in his hand, occasionally looked up at the PPT, and did not show dissatisfaction.

In the end, Lin Ai released his funny video and smiled face-savingly.

Although Lin Ai didn't tell whether it was ridicule or teasing, the general rule was better than a blank face.

In the question session, people from various departments mentioned some details of the plan, and Lin Ai was quite well prepared and answered very smoothly.

But Mr. Duan didn't say a word, and Lin Ai asked, "Mr. Duan, do you have any questions about the plan?"

Duan Jin, who was in a good mood, was led out by Mr. Duan again, so he began to ask questions mercilessly: "I have three questions, the first is how to realize the interaction design mentioned in your H5, the second is the depth of cooperation between the variety show resources to be cooperated, and the third is the budget and the amount of exposure and conversion expected to be achieved."

The third question is easier to answer, Lin Ai answered it very smoothly, the second one is because the case has not yet been decided, it is only the initial proposal part, it is impossible to confirm the depth of cooperation, but it can be seen that Duan Jin is a person who attaches great importance to the possibility of implementation, so he replied truthfully: "We have reliable partners, and we have cooperated several times, the depth of cooperation is relatively general brand, implantation is very natural, and the exposure is relatively high", after speaking, Lin Ai also introduced the brand cases that he has cooperated.

"Well, the first question, how to implement the technology", generally speaking, technical questions are not asked to the proposer, but Duan Jin is from a technical background, but he is very interested in this issue.

Lin loves not to know programming and doesn't know how to explain it.

Duan Jin raised his head and looked at Lin Ai fixedly, "Because the interaction design you proposed is not simple to be honest, the manpower and change cycle will be very long, and it cannot be realized in your scheduled implementation cycle."

In the question session, Lin Ai Ai was not the only one who could answer, Zhang Yuan saw that she was embarrassed, so he took the initiative to stand up and answer for Lin Aiai: "I can see that Mr. Duan is very professional, and we can invest more manpower in this part in the future to ensure that it is completed within the cycle."

Duan Jin sighed, "Don't you want money for labor costs?" Can the budget be completed? The plan that can't be completed is the airplane draft, and since you can't give me a perfect and executable plan, then come back to me when you have it."

After saying this, Duan Jin stood up, turned around and walked out of the conference room, and Sica rarely felt that the boss seemed to be a little angry, which was really strange.

Master of Emotional Control - Duan Jinjin, what's wrong today, it's a bit vexatious.

Lin Ai was very depressed at this time, it can be said that she was very frustrated, because she did make a very rudimentary mistake, and the plan was indeed much worse in terms of persuasiveness in terms of executability, and the customer diss had nothing to say, and the tight time was the reason but not the excuse.

Coupled with the fact that the subject is Duan Jin, that frustration has been magnified several times for some reason.

She couldn't forgive herself for letting the efforts of everyone in the company turn into a bubble because of her lack of preparation.

Sica felt that Duan Jin's performance was more like he was sure to cooperate with them, otherwise he wouldn't have asked such a serious question, coupled with the strange atmosphere between Lin Ai and the boss just now, he smelled a hint of gossip.

In addition to the relationship between their superiors and subordinates, the two have been friends for many years, and they still have to help when they should help their friends.

"Love, listening to Mr. Duan's meaning, it should be that you have to update the plan, you go directly to the office and Mr. Duan to confirm the time of the next competition," Sica said.

Lin loved that he had messed up the case, and when he saw that there was a chance to save it, he chased it out without hesitation.

"Mr. Duan, Mr. Duan", Lin Ai shouted loudly when he saw Duan Jin's shadow.

Of course, Duan Jin is not deaf, he has long heard someone calling him, and his ears are also very useful, and he can still hear that Lin Ai is calling himself, but the more he listens to this person calling himself Mr. Duan, the more unhappy he becomes, he doesn't want to pay attention to people, and his steps are getting faster and faster.

"Duan Jin!" Lin Ai suddenly shouted.

Finally, the footsteps ahead paused and stopped.
