Chapter 37: The Fall of the Silver Medallion
Zhao Yi was not only my best friend in high school, but also the most optimistic leader of me and Yahan. Looking at all the leaders of the team before and after seven years, he is also one of the best, but it is a pity that such a talent was ruined in the hands of Meilu and women, or he was so decisive when he left Meilu, and so miserable after leaving Meilu, it really makes me feel embarrassed! Zhao Yi loves her wife Yanan very much, but Yanan is a rather vain person, and he can do anything for Yanan.
To this day, I still don't understand the whole truth about Zhao Yi's resignation, selling his house, buying a car, selling a car, and getting divorced. I only remember that when Zhao Yi and Yanan first came out, Yahan once said something to me, she said: "Xiaofei, you have to be mentally prepared, Zhao Yi is too emotional, he will do it very slowly." "I remember not being too surprised at that time, and I didn't fully understand the meaning of these words, but it didn't take long for Zhao Yi to start making me anxious. Because we have a lot of meetings every weekend, and Zhao Yi has to go home to visit his parents on weekends, so he won't attend many events. But every time he will go to the United States, he will succeed, violating the first of the five iron laws of the United States, how can he succeed? In addition, Zhao Yi and Yanan's newlywed Yan'er are reluctant to separate, so they are always bound to work together, which affects work efficiency. These two points were vigorously criticized by me and Yahan at that time. Thinking about it today, we really went too far. The Meilu years are like this, everything is important to the United States, and everything makes way for the goal!
With my relationship with Zhao Yi, we could have talked about everything, but since Zhao Yi joined, we didn't talk much. At that time, they didn't come to the center very often, and they didn't participate in many conference activities, so we had a lot fewer opportunities to communicate. As one of the core leaders of the big team, my energy is always around the center, and I should have cared more about him at that time, which was a big mistake for me. After a few months, they started to have the mentality of working for me. After seven years and countless experiences, today I finally understand that before you get to a stable DD, Meilu is still your leader's business, and the people below are indeed working for you. But I didn't see it that way at that time, where do you need such a mentality? We started to have a little mustard between us. I believed at the time that it must have been Yanan's pillow wind that had divided our brotherhood.
In the harsh winter of 22 months of suspension and recommendation, Zhao Yi, Yanan and their entire group can only be lined up under me in the form of preferential customers, and it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in the calculation of the huge cumbersome bonus every month, and if there is a problem, it can be communicated in time, I don't understand why Yanan has to bury this matter deep in his heart? Under the influence of Yanan, Zhao Yi may have decided that I was the culprit who deliberately deducted the department's bonus, as mentioned above, Yanan spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but I never do this kind of "drinking the blood of soldiers". It's a pity that the misunderstanding has been caused, and it's too late to regret it. There is a lack of communication between people, and this is still the case for husbands and wives, let alone brothers!
At the beginning of 2003, two months after Zhao Yi's resignation, I only learned about it, and Yanan said to me at that time: "Director Xiao is the happiest, this time Zhao Yi can't run." "I'm speechless, I've been in the U.S. for seven years, and I've never instigated anyone to work on the U.S. Road. Since October 2003, after Zhao Yi and Yanan sold their house and bought a car, they moved to a rough house that has not yet been renovated to live, I went once, the monthly rent of 400 yuan two-bedroom apartment, although very spacious but shabby, I really don't understand why they want to be so poor and extravagant, self-defeating? Now that I think about it, this is the evil of the system. At the conference, we continued to share good cars and good houses, and also continued to promote rapid success. Before you succeed, you must first learn to package your success, which is the most common words of newcomers at the conference and team education at that time, a straight suit and suit are the minimum investment, and when talking about "the right concept and mentality", we usually call this expense an investment image.
Zhao Yi's ability and achievements are obvious to the whole team, so it is reasonable to arrange Zhao Yi to give a lecture at the center. But in order to be able to watch TV with Yanan at home at night, Zhao Yi could call five minutes before the start of class and say that there was something temporary and I couldn't come, every time I had to rush into battle, and after a few times, no one in the big team dared to ask them to give a lecture, so they felt that they were left out again, but who is to blame? Is it to blame Zhao Yi for being too infatuated, or is Yanan ignoring the overall situation? It was a long time later that I really understood what Yahan said back then, and Zhao Yi finally planted the word "love".
After selling the house and buying the car, Zhao Yi and Yanan began to hold a small party of their personal department in their own rental house behind my back, and everyone in their group participated, and I, the leader, was kept in the dark. It wasn't until I found out that Tang Qiuyan, who was in Zhao Yi's front row, was in a very abnormal state during that time, that I started a routine with her. Qiu Yan had just come out of the front row not long ago, and she asked Yanan a question: How can I make the newcomer obedient? Yanan's answer is to let newcomers make more goods, and the more newcomers buy goods, the more obedient they are. Qiu Yan was depressed when she heard this, did she know that she was also fooled in this way? I began to realize the seriousness of the problem, and in the few few communications, I couldn't restrain myself from hurting Zhao Yi's face. One day in November was Qiu Yan's birthday in the front row, and the relationship between Qiu Yan and Zhao Yi and Yanan was already quite tense at that time. I summoned all of Zhao Yi's departments, and I wanted to use this birthday party to relieve the tension between Zhao Yi, Yanan and the department, but before the birthday party started, Zhao Yi suddenly called and released the "pigeons" - this time it was the "pigeons" of his entire department, on the grounds that Yanan had an uncomfortable menstrual cycle and he wanted to accompany him at home. In the deserted corridor, across the phone, my long-suppressed emotions couldn't help but explode for the first time.
In April and May 2004, Zhao Yi and Yanan were already in great difficulty, but Yanan still changed to a good house with a monthly rent of 2,000 yuan despite the serious economic crisis, and insisted on raising a big dog when his own rations were still not guaranteed. I roughly calculated for them at the time: rent, car loans, car maintenance, dog raising, daily basic expenses, even if they don't use themselves, don't hold meetings, don't pay off other foreign debts, the minimum monthly expenses have to be more than 8,000 yuan, unless they are silver medals every month, they can't survive at all. Zhao Yi and Yanan have completely stopped coming to the center, so they desperately borrowed another 12,000 yuan from others, added some equipment after simple renovation, and opened a family beauty salon in the rental house. I remember they said to me at the time, isn't Meilu "the gold of the family"? Diamonds are in your backyard! I'm dizzy, the diamond is in your backyard doesn't mean that you are only doing beauty in the community!
Not counting Ruan Qiong, who later went to work in pyramid schemes, the couple called the remaining seven front rows to their homes for a meeting, each of them worked shifts for a day, and everyone had to pass the beauty technique, and then went back to copy such a family beauty salon, and then spent another year occupying the main middle and high-end communities in Tianjin to win this cake. Wu Hao was still a senior student in Tianjin Light Institute at that time, Zhao Yi's seventh line, Zhao Yi and Yanan deceived from the Internet in the name of recruitment and internship, and he joined Zhao Yi's team after participating in Zhuozhou's road to success in December 2003, and he has always been very recognized by me. Of course, all this was done without me. As a boy, especially a college student, Wu Hao was very disgusted by the practice of opening a family beauty salon, and he secretly asked for my opinion, and I was stunned at the time. Thinking of Zhao Yi and Yanan's move to prohibit the department from meeting at the center, I eagerly feel that the end of this group is imminent. In order to save this department to the greatest extent, Yahan and I visited the door, and the follow-up method of the side department was also used, but it did not work. In the end, I had to go over this silver medal and communicate directly with the depths one by one. The tug-of-war between me and Zhao Yi against the department began, and the result of the tug-of-war was naturally that I saved the group, and the departments below them always believed in me more. But this move also offended them badly, and the well-renovated beauty salon was ruined, and the relationship between us suddenly became strained.
In December 2003, on the success ridge of Mr. Yang in Jinniu Lake, Nanjing, there was a silver medal from Xinyang, Henan Province to share, and Zhao Yi and Yanan also participated at that time. After discussing with Yahan, we all felt that Meilu was not a face-making business, and the team would be abandoned in the long run! Unexpectedly, after a few months, they actually brought the old bottle and filled it with new wine. If they hadn't participated in that conference, Zhao Yi and Yanan would not have lost so badly in the United States!
After copying the family beauty salon went awry, they rarely appeared. The last time I met with Zhao Yi and Yanan was in the center of December after the team drilled, and that time I forced them to come to the center to discuss the matter of their front row Sister Cui stealing e-commerce pyramid schemes, to see how to save the group, but because I "deducted" the department's bonus, Yanan's emotions suddenly began to target me desperately, and Yanan and I, who were aggrieved, stood up, and then Zhao Yi also joined, he couldn't tolerate anyone disrespecting his wife. Emotions poured out like volcanoes on both sides, and our relationship was finally irretrievable. In July and August 2004, Zhao Yi and Yanan's second line, Sister Cui, pulled several side departments of Zhao Yi's group to do online pyramid sales, and many people in that group left one after another in the months at the end of the year because they didn't make money. After I returned to Tianjin from Guangzhou in September 2006, I dragged Wu Hao back from the "morgue". To this day, there are still a few depths in this group that are actively clinging to them, and they should never know their earliest origins and stories!
Zhao Yi and Yanan have not cooperated with me to go to the silver medal, nor have they cooperated with me to go to DD, let alone cooperate with the team to go to jade and diamond. In July and August 2004, they withered early when the whole big team was still alive and thriving, and their departure actually had nothing to do with the rise and fall of the whole big team, but it was closely related to some bad inducements of the system conference. If there is no Meilu, they will also have a lot of problems in their future lives, and they are likely to get divorced. But without Meilu, Zhao Yi would not have been so miserable later, because it was I who led Zhao Yi into the purgatory-like gate of Meilu, and he recorded everything in my account, which I can understand. What I want to say is that the combination of Zhao Yi and Yanan is a huge mistake. Lin Chao used to say a sentence: Marry a good daughter-in-law and be rich for three generations! I still think so.
Meilu has been seven years, and Zhao Yi is the biggest pain in my heart! Over the years, I have spoken to him in countless dreams in my dreams. During my stay in Guangzhou, I sent him a lot of text messages and admitted the mistakes I had made, and I did everything I could to win back this friend. Zhao Yi, if you are watching, I sincerely hope that you can forgive me for everything. I believe that, deep down, we are still best friends.
