Chapter 10: I'm the Manager

The next day, Lin Qiuran arrived at the headquarters building of Meiyu Group half an hour early.

The moment she stood in front of the general manager's office, she suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

A few days ago, this office and the position of the general manager belonged to Lin Qiuran. And now, she has left this position for a ridiculous reason.

Lin Qiuran took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

There was no An Mianmian in the general manager's office, only her secretary Qin Rong.

"Manager Qiu came early." Qin Rong glanced at her unexpectedly, "Please sit down, Mr. An is in a meeting and hasn't come back yet." ”

Lin Qiuran and An Mianmian have been at odds for a long time, and Qin Rong, as An Mianmian's secretary, is naturally on her boss's side.

Qin Rong took a glass of water from the water dispenser and put it in front of Lin Qiuran, and asked as if unintentionally.

Mr. An hired an interior designer from abroad to rearrange the office. What does Manager Qiu think? ”

Lin Qiuran smiled lightly and replied without leaking.

"It's good, it's very Mr. An's style."

Less than a week after she left, the office she had worked in for two years had completely erased the traces of her existence.

Maybe it won't be long before the employees of Meiyu no longer remember her as a person, and they don't know that there was once a promising general manager named Lin Qiuran.

Qin Rong didn't get the effect she wanted, so she was bored, so she didn't bother with Lin Qiuran anymore. As the secretary of the general manager, she also has a lot of work, and she doesn't have so much time to provoke Lin Qiuran.

A moment after ten o'clock, An Mianmian did not come back.

Qin Rong answered the phone and said to Lin Qiuran, "I'm sorry, the meeting was suddenly delayed, and I'm afraid Mr. An won't be able to come back for a while." ”

"It's okay, I'll wait."

Lin Qiuran smiled good-naturedly, making it impossible to find a trace of error.

However, in her heart, without her number one competitor, An Mianmian really floated, and even such a low-level dismount came out.

After waiting for a full hour, An Mianmian was late.

As soon as she returned to the office, she had a smile on her face, "Manager Qiu is here?" I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”

said this, but there was no apology in his eyes.

"Manager Qiu is a person who has been a general manager, and he knows how tiring this position is, so he must be able to understand me, right?" An Mianmian hid a knife in her smile, "Speaking of which, I really envy you, you can live a leisurely life for a few days." Unlike me, I've been so busy lately that I don't even have time to go to the beauty salon, and my skin is bad. ”

Lin Qiuran opened his eyes and said nonsense, "What's the matter, Mr. An is like a girl no matter when." ”

Doesn't An Mianmian just want to see her unwilling? She won't let An Mianmian get her wish.

Without waiting for An Mianmian to set up any falsehood, Lin Qiuran said directly: "Mr. An has every opportunity, and I don't want to delay Mr. An's time." Let's make a quick decision and settle the matter that needs to be discussed. ”

As he spoke, he handed the prepared materials to An Mianmian.

After An Mianmian took it, she didn't look at it, and put it aside.

"I know pretty much about the club. Manager Qiu, I'd like to hear your thoughts. ”

Before Lin Qiuran could speak, Qin Rong walked over and reminded An Mianmian, "Mr. An, you have a dinner at Junting Hotel at twelve o'clock at noon today." We're going to leave at least half-past eleven. ”

An Mianmian and Qin Rong sang and harmonized, pretending to reprimand.

"Have a dinner? Why didn't you remind me earlier? If you don't say it until now, you're not afraid of delaying any major event? Deduct this month's bonus. ”

Qin Rong made a look like he had done something wrong, "I'm sorry, Mr. An." ”

An Mianmian said to Lin Qiuran pretendly, "Look, I'm really sorry, suddenly there was a dinner, we didn't have too long to discuss, so we could only make a quick decision." ”

It was eleven o'clock, and she only had half an hour to convince An Mianmian.

Lin Qiuran sneered in her heart, she let An Mianmian say good and bad things, people scolded her, and the bonus was deducted, what else could she do?

An Mianmian's fingers tapped lightly on the table, "Manager Qiu, I looked at the amount you applied for. Do you really think that a team that is going downhill is worth spending so much money on training? ”

Lin Qiuran frowned.

"Mr. An, what you said is not very right, the SOD team won the runner-up in the just-concluded national competition. Looking at their resumes, I think they're still a team at their peak. ”

"It's not a contradiction between being at the top and going downhill."

An Mianmian has obviously done her homework.

The adult world is reasonable, even if An Mianmian is the manager, she can't come nonsense.

"Team SOD was the champion in the last national competition, and with the same team configuration, isn't it a step backwards to go from champion to runner-up? What's more, as far as I know, one of the main players has already retired. The prime period of esports players is only a few years, and SOD has been debuting for five years. The media in the esports industry is generally not optimistic about the SOD team, and I think it makes sense. ”

"A loss in one competition doesn't mean anything, LOL's ET team was the champion of the spring season three years ago, and two years ago the results dropped and did not qualify, and the media said at that time that the ET era was over. Now, however, ET is representing the country in Germany. ”

"Team ET is just one example." An Mianmian is gentle and uncompromising, "I believe in the opinion of industry insiders. It is true that investment is risky, but what we have to do is to avoid risks. The company's main field is in film and television, and it is impossible to take tens of millions of investments to go afloat. ”

An Mianmian chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, SOD's team base is in the Linjiang Villa area. This is the highest housing price in the city, right? ”

"I've made it clear in the entry that the clan will change bases to reduce a series of unnecessary expenses."

An Mianmian opened the materials prepared by Lin Qiuran and flipped through them casually.

"That's it, Lin Qiuran, I'll just say it directly. The people who did the acquisition of this project have now gone home to drink the northwest wind. This is a project that was selectively abandoned by the company, and I will not let up on the amount. At most, I can dial you a tenth. In the industry, this money is enough to support a second-rate team. ”

But he can only raise a second-rate team.

There is a huge income gap in the e-sports industry, with the last team playing games with instant noodle bowls, and the top teams in the villa area of Linjiang City, with an annual income of millions.

The money approved by An Mianmian can barely meet the salaries of the team members. Her meaning is also very clear, SOD is just a second-rate team in her eyes, and it is not worth more investment.

"Mr. An, it's time."

"Oh, okay."

An Mianmian stood up, and when she passed by Lin Qiuran's side, she said in a volume that could be heard by both of them.

"Lin Qiuran, I know you're not convinced, but there's no way, I'm the general manager."

After speaking, with the attitude of a victor, he walked out with his head held high.
