After the establishment of the Lipton joint venture, the first task was to put the tea factory into operation smoothly and start producing tea bags in China. Youjia sent John, the most senior factory manager, from Australia to China to train a successor.

According to the original plan, John was to work in China for at least two years, and in fact, after half a year, Fang Gang, a management trainee, was already completely in charge of himself. John is old, and he has been away from home for so long, both physically and psychologically, and he applied to Chairman Anton to return to China early, and Fang Gang began to lead the team to prepare for mass production.

Mass production meant that the sales team in China had to keep up immediately. Mr. Lim, Senior Sales Director, was transferred from Singapore to set up a sales team in Lipton China. Mr. Lin is very old, and he only went on a business trip, and he had a heart attack and almost couldn't come back. Frightened, the excellent family could only hurry up and let Mr. Lin go back to Singapore.

Mr. Dai, the general manager, is very gentle, speaks slowly and logically, and hesitates to do things. Lei Yueer always felt that with Mr. Dai's management level, there was only one reason why he could be sent over as the general manager - he was Chinese and could speak Chinese.

When Lei Yueer saw that a simple office decoration of the joint venture company cost more than three times the budget, and Mr. Dai was also played around by the boss of the decoration company, he couldn't bear it anymore, and ran to the chairman of the board of directors, Mr. Shi, and sued him. The joint venture company immediately convened a board meeting, and Mr. Dai said weakly at the meeting: "Forget it, forget it, don't criticize me, I really can't do it, you can change people." ”

The joint venture company has been established for so long, except for the factory director Fang Gang and the vice president Lei Yueer, none of the other department heads have been implemented, and now there is no general manager, and there is really no leader. Seeing that after mass production, someone has to sell things, Mr. Shi wants to pull the three people from the previous Lipton black tea business department over first, but the original person in charge of the business department, Xing Hongbo, is now the manager of the ninth comprehensive trade department, and the export business of container shipments is on track, and he is unwilling to do the domestic business of selling bags of tea.

In a hurry, Lei Yue'er thought of Wei Hong, the deputy of the original business department, and asked her if she was willing to go to the joint venture company. Wei Hong used to be a soldier, accustomed to obedience, and also liked challenges, so he promised on the spot that he was willing to go. Lei Yueer considered that Wei Hong was a Chinese employee after all, so she won a position as an assistant sales manager for Wei Hong.

The next step is to assemble a sales team. The university graduates of the headquarters are interested in the Canton Fair and going abroad, and no one is willing to let these cadres go to the joint venture company, and the Ministry of Personnel is not willing to let these cadres go to the joint venture company.

In desperation, Lei Yueer had no choice but to go to the tea factory to gather workers, do mobilization, and let them go to the joint venture company to be salesmen. The workers asked, "Do you have to work three shifts?" Lei Yue'er said: "You don't have to work three shifts, but you have to sell things all the time, and you may always go to work." The audience booed.

"However, the place where you go to work will be the office, not the workshop. Your identity will be a salesman, not a worker. ”

"Are you looking down on us workers?" The boos from the audience were even louder, if it weren't for the escort of the security unit, Lei Yue'er would almost not be able to get out.

After a long time, I finally got four salesmen who looked quite energetic from the tea factory workers:

Ade, Jian, Peng, Ping.

Considering that logistics personnel may be needed to help with billing and coordination of delivery, two girls who are willing to come over from the sales department of Platinum Boat have been gathered:

Ah Yu, Ah Hui.

The team of the sales department is finally ready, but I forgot: there is still a lack of a general manager!

Mr. Shi also felt very embarrassed when he thought of this: it was originally a foreigner who came to build a joint venture by himself, but he couldn't even send a general manager for a long time, except for the fact that he had trained a factory director and other department managers, and he didn't see a shadow. On the board of directors, Mr. Shi was so angry that he slapped the table. Anton and Mr. Fu were also speechless with shame.

After Mr. Shi lost his temper, he looked at the two foreign representatives opposite, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration: Why can't Mr. Fu be the general manager? Although he is Singaporean, he is very good at Chinese and well versed in China. Mr. Shi excitedly said this idea.

When Mr. Fu heard this, he was also shocked. His current task is to find a joint venture Chinese party for Youjia in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and bring the Youjia brand into the Chinese market, which is a huge workload, and compared with the Lipton brand, the task of finding the Chinese side for so many brands is more important and more urgent. So, he smiled and thanked Mr. Shi for his appreciation, but patiently explained why he couldn't be the general manager.

Anton also explained to Mr. Shi that Mr. Fu's explanation was in place, and at present, only Mr. Fu, Mr. Ma and Mr. Mei, the new joiner, are responsible for the development of joint venture projects in the Chinese market, and the work intensity is very high, so Mr. Fu cannot be drawn here.

When Mr. Shi heard this, he couldn't help but slap the table again: What is the use of you patronizing and talking about joint ventures, and no one cares about them after the negotiation is done? Are they all thrown to the Chinese side? We know how to do it, but what do we want you to do? Didn't you say that Youjia is the largest in the world? Can't even send a general manager, which one is the largest in the world? ”

Mr. Shi, who has always been Sven, almost blurted out the "biggest ball", and finally held it back.

Anton and Mr. Fu had no choice but to say again and again that they would discuss it well after they returned and resolve the appointment of the general manager of the joint venture company as soon as possible.

There is work on the side of the joint venture company, but no one is doing it, and at this moment, there are people in the finance department of Shenzhen Boat, and they are not allowed to work.

After Mr. Wu asked the people in the finance department to give Ning Qian the work to do alone, the people in the finance department were curious and excited. Although they think that Mr. Wu is very inhumane with such a whole person, it is still quite interesting to see how the person who is rectified is recruited.

They had seen Xiang Li being rectified before, and Xiang Li would lose his temper and complain in the office, and even slapped the table directly and said, "Lao Tzu is gone!" "But Xiang Li has his own desk to shoot, and this Ning Qian doesn't even have a chair that belongs to her; Xiang Li is a master with many years of practical experience in finance, this Ning Qian heard that he is a novice who has not even done a day of finance, and Mr. Wu really said well: "I'll see what you can do and how capable you are!" ”

Ning Qian sat on the cold bench in the finance department of Shenzhen Boat for three days, and basically figured out the general situation:

There are seven people in the finance department, including Ning Qian. said that the work of six people was done by Ning Qian alone, but in fact, most of the work was usually done by Sister Fang alone.

The cashier, Long Xiaona, is very active and hardworking, and spends half a day running the bank;

Mei Fang is learning VAT special invoice management, although she is also very studious, but after all, during pregnancy, she is already thin and tired, and her work efficiency is not high in a day;

Zhang Shengmei was originally in charge of bank loans, but basically it didn't work, and it was not as good as Long Xiaona's relationship with the bank, as long as Sister Fang asked her, she would turn her head and ask Long Xiaona;

Liu Zhiying, who is in charge of export tax rebates, but has not been able to retreat, Sister Fang is very anxious, she is like a nobody all day, and her mouth is non-stop most of the time at work - either eating, or chatting, Ning Qian's family situation of everyone in the finance department is basically known from her chatter all day;

Sister Ma is in charge of accounting and is a down-to-earth person, and this part of the accounting is basically supported by Sister Ma.

Sister Fang has a solid professional foundation, rich experience, and when she talks to people, she speaks softly, always smiles with a pair of bright big eyes, gets along with everyone very well, and has no problems with internal control.

At present, it seems that the top priorities of the Finance Department are:

Bank loans should be loaned as soon as possible - Mr. Wu went in and out of the finance department many times a day, and he was anxiously asking about the loan every time;

The export tax rebate should be refunded as soon as possible - although Liu Zhiying is not in a hurry, Sister Fang is already so anxious that she wants to scratch her head;

The use and management of VAT invoices should be standardized-Although the tax reform has only not started for a long time, the state has repeatedly ordered and reaffirmed that the management of special VAT invoices should be strengthened.

These urgent tasks are solved, and the work of the finance department is easily solved.

When Ning Qian was busy solving these questions, Mr. Wu was busy looking for Ning Qian's stubble:

He asked Ning Qian to wait for him at 11:20 a.m. every day at the entrance of the finance department. He would hand Ning Qian a lunch box and ask her to go to the food stall downstairs in the company to buy a beef stir-fried choy sum. In fact, he has the general office and someone from the administrative department who can instruct him, but he only needs Ning Qian to do this, and when the beef stir-fried cabbage heart is handed over to him, it must be "steaming", and if it is not hot, he has to buy a new one.

Ning Qian thought to herself: This Mr. Wu must be a northerner - with the climatic conditions of Shenzhen, it is not very difficult to keep the food steaming, since the purpose is to rectify the person, the assessment standards of the moves should also be localized.

Every time Mr. Wu handed the lunch box to Ning Qian, he deliberately exaggerated: Ning Qian's voice was loud, enough for the entire second floor to hear clearly, and when he told the standards that must be met, his tone was very tough, and he waved his fists, as if he was not saying "steaming", but "murderous". Everyone in the company knew that his purpose was to give Ning Qian a headache, including Jia Weihuang and Sui Yanyan. They are in the same mood as Mr. Wu: see how long you can endure it.

Ning Qian thought to herself: Sooner or later, it will have to be explained, but now is not the time.

Mr. Wu would also deliberately call Ning Qian to send documents to his office, and especially picked the most people in the office to sneer at her. Ning Qian usually didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and would say, "Mr. Wu, do you have any other work instructions?" If not, I'll go back and get busy. Then he left without looking back.

Sometimes Ning Qian saw that he was talking too much, and would immediately intercept his words: "Mr. Wu, I have to do the work of the whole finance department alone, I'm sorry, I have to go!" "Turn around and go.

Mr. Wu saw that she didn't get in the oil and salt, and called her to send the documents into the office again, this time there were more people in his office, and Vice President Jia and Vice President Sui were also there.

Mr. Wu picked up the document, glanced at Ning Qian with very obscene eyes, and said in a weird manner: "Xiao Ning, our Shenzhen is the most open place in China, and the girls here are all dressed very little, as long as they wear less, they will make a fortune." You've been wrapped tightly all day, and the color is still so dark, where do you look like a young girl, you wear less! In line with our Shenzhen temperament! ”

When Ning Qian heard this, she thought to herself, sister, I am a person who has experienced life and death, and I am afraid that you will play this trick on me?

"Mr. Wu, do you know whose face you are embarrassing when you say such things?" Ning Qian asked with a smile.

Mr. Wu looked at her with big eyes that hid thunder in his smile when he saw it, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"It's normal for me to dress like this to work, which represents the rigor and professionalism of the employees of Shenzhen Boat. But when you say such frivolous words in front of the cadres of Shenzhen Ship, do you want to represent the corporate culture of Shenzhen Ship, or are you saying your own heart? ”

"Mr. Wu, don't be a leader who makes your subordinates look down on you from the bottom of your heart." Then, Ning Qian turned around and left again.

Sui Yanyan couldn't help but snicker, Jia Weihuang finally understood the reason why Mr. Shi and Director Xu valued this girl so much - she was really a powerful person.

Jia Weihuang has a special car back to Guangzhou every weekend, and when he learned that Ning Qian was still studying, he took the initiative to invite her to take his car back and forth.

Yuan Wenwen's residence has settled down, but the new company he went to is obviously very far from the platinum boat - whether it is the size of the company or the degree of attention, it is not as good as the platinum boat, which makes Yuan Wenwen very annoyed.

Platinum Boat is a magical place: you don't think the company is very good when you're there every day, but when you leave, you find that it's good everywhere – "like an ex who has been abandoned by himself." – Summary of Yuan Wenwen.

What does that feel like? Ning Qian tried hard to understand it through imagination, but found that there was no ex who was abandoned by him, not even an ex. But she found that her heart was starting to hurt again – well, I may have had an ex attempt.

Busy winning a battle, busy adapting to a new environment, busy traveling to classes in Guangzhou and Shenzhen...... I think I have forgotten him, but in the dead of night, especially when I can see the moon outside the window, I think of him......

I wonder what happened to this predecessor in an unsuccessful attempt......
