Chapter 382: Showing the edge
The conversation between David and Ling Jiacheng must have been hypocritical and boring in the eyes of outsiders, and after talking for more than an hour, no one took advantage of it.
Ling Jiacheng is doing everything possible to know the current views of the new energy executives, while David is doing everything possible with dumb riddles.
For David, this was the only big bargaining chip in the confrontation with Ling.
Shopping malls are like casinos, and whoever easily takes out the biggest chips is more likely to lose. Therefore, neither of them wanted to show weakness and let the other party catch the handle, so the matter remained deadlocked, and in the end, the matter was not resolved.
Instead, the two men were exhausted by each other's temptations.
In the end, no one got any bargains.
Ling Jiacheng returned to the Ling clan and found that Ling Fei'er was already waiting for him in the office.
"How? Elder brother? Any progress? Ling Fei'er asked with concern.
Ling Jiacheng shook his head, took a sip of the coffee prepared by the secretary on the table, and said to Ling Fei'er: "David, this old fox, refuses to leak a word at all, only says that there is no fixed number yet, it is really cunning, I really have nothing to gain from him." ”
"Oh? This old guy looks a little obscene, but I didn't expect him to be a little capable. Ling Fei'er said.
"If you don't have any skills, can you sit in the position of president of new energy? Do you want to know, how many people are rushing to do this position? ”
"But even people like Leng Qingxi can do it, I really doubt that a company as big as New Energy is really imprudent in selecting employees."
Ling Jiacheng looked at his sister and suddenly burst out laughing.
Ling Fei'er was taken aback by his sudden laughter, not knowing what was wrong with her brother.
Ling Jiacheng took a while before he stopped laughing and said, "I didn't expect my sister's charm to be so great. ”
"What's wrong?" Ling Xue'er was a little inexplicable by Ling Jiacheng's laughter, she really didn't know what was going on.
Ling Jiacheng said that seeing David today was David's performance.
Ling Fei's childish little face turned pale, she stomped her feet and said, "It's really shameless, I'll just say that this old man looks obscene, what's the matter?" The idea hit me in the head. ”
"Yes, if it weren't for our cooperation with new energy, I would have wanted to splash tea on his face," Ling Jiacheng said.
"Why didn't you splash it, if I was there at the time, hum!" Ling Fei'er said angrily.
"Okay, okay, my sister is naturally beautiful, some people are worried, this is something to be proud of, it shows that my sister has a market."
Seeing that Ling Fei'er was angry, Ling Jiacheng hurriedly coaxed a few words.
The two of them are entangled in this matter. Although the brothers and sisters of the Ling family do things unscrupulously, there is one thing, that is, Ling Jiacheng will never use Ling Fei'er's hue to do anything.
However, Ling Fei'er rolled her eyes and said: "Actually, there is more than one person in charge of new energy now, and we can also go to someone else to try it." ”
"Oh?" Ling Jiacheng looked at his sister with interest, not knowing what good insights she had.
Ling Fei'er took out a document like a trick and put it in front of Ling Jiacheng.
Ling Jiacheng picked up the document that Ling Fei'er handed him and read it. This is a resume, and the owner of the resume is Li Sheng.
"What is this?" Ling Jiacheng looked at Ling Fei'er with some puzzlement and asked.
"You'll find out just by looking at it." Ling Fei'er raised her eyebrows and motioned for Ling Jiacheng to continue looking.
Ling Jiacheng had no choice but to lower his head and continue reading: "Li Sheng, the current executive director of the China Region of the new energy company. ”
"This Li Sheng?" Ling Jiacheng was also interested and continued to watch.
After a while, Ling Jiacheng finished reading the resume, and then said to Ling Fei'er: "We can make a fuss about this Li Sheng." ”
Ling Fei'er nodded: "That's what I mean, we can't just point at David, the old fox, he is so cunning, who knows what kind of decision will be made, so we should think about whether to put all the chips on this David." ”
"Well, yes, I'll leave this matter to you. You go and carefully check the situation of this Li Sheng, and then be responsible for contacting him to see what kind of person this Li Sheng is, and whether it is possible for us to use it. ”
Ling Jiacheng looked at Ling Fei'er and said.
"Okay, I know, don't worry, brother." Ling Fei'er nodded and said.
Ling Jiacheng looked at Ling Fei'er with a smile and said, "Okay, sister, I found that after you returned to China, your ability became stronger and stronger. ”
Indeed, although Ling Fei'er was a little clever in the past, she had never used it in business, at that time, what she was thinking about all day long was how to break up Leng Qingxi and Mu Xun City, and how to snatch Mu Xun City.
"People always grow." Ling Fei'er muttered quietly.
In fact, Ling Jiacheng was only half right, Ling Fei'er's ability was indeed good, but deep down in her heart, she was always thinking about the same problem, that is, Leng Qingxi and Mu Xuncheng.
Of course, she didn't tell her brother about this.
For the sake of Mu Xuncheng's affairs, my brother has been angry with himself several times.
Ling Fei'er didn't want to make Ling Jiacheng angry anymore.
Ling Fei'er immediately began to investigate Li Sheng, but the result gave her some unexpected gains, Ling Fei'er got some interesting news on the new energy side. It turned out that this Li Sheng was once a suitor of Leng Qingxi.
In fact, this news is not good news for the Ling family, if Leng Qingxi and Li Sheng have such an old relationship, then it is a good opportunity for the Mu family.
However, if it is for Ling Fei'er herself, this news is worth playing.
An old acquaintance of Leng Qingxi? Ling Fei'er laughed.
Ling Fei'er didn't tell Ling Jiacheng about the results of her investigation, but just reported some other things to him, this news, let's keep it and digest it slowly, maybe it will come in handy.
Ling Fei'er secretly calculated.
Leng Qingxi didn't know that at this time, Li Sheng had become the center of the storm between the Ling family and the Mu family.
She's been busy with new hair lately.
His design department has handed over several plans to Leng Qingxi, but they have all been rejected by Leng Qingxi.
Leng Qingxi looked at the design drafts, with a rare serious expression on his face. Leng Qingxi looks very gentle on weekdays, but at this time, there is a majesty on his face.
"I've read all these manuscripts, I'm sorry, I can only say that it doesn't work."
When the few people below heard Leng Qingxi say this, they all glanced at each other, exchanged glances, and secretly complained in their hearts.
These elites in the design department didn't expect that Leng Qingxi looked very gentle, but in fact he was a workaholic.
After finalizing the project, they had been working overtime for several days in a row, just to rush out a draft that satisfied Leng Qingxi.
But these designers, who are usually above the top, were completely denied by Leng Qingxi at this time.
Anyone can be discouraged.
A young and vigorous little designer stood up and asked, "Mr. Leng, you said that our manuscript is not good, then good, you give us a reason." ”
"Why?" Leng Qingxi glanced at the designer and recognized him as a newcomer known as a cutting-edge designer, who had just won an award in a famous competition.
It's no wonder that in the eyes of outsiders, these people are considered top designers, otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to sit here.
However, their design did disappoint Leng Qingxi.
"The reason? Okay, I'll tell you about it. Leng Qingxi took out the designer's draft and asked, "This one, it's your draft, right?" ”
"That's right." The little designer looked at Leng Qingxi angrily, waiting for Leng Qingxi's next step.
"Okay, let's take this draft as an example."
Leng Qingxi motioned to his assistant to open the design draft.
"Indeed, we have to admit that the design of this manuscript is very novel, and it is the most innovative among the manuscripts you have handed in."
A smug smile appeared on the little designer's face.
"Still." Leng Qingxi's words changed sharply and continued: "We are a design company, not a design competition, not just novelty. To put it bluntly, what we do is a commodity, and the most important thing about a commodity is its practicality. I believe that everyone is an experienced designer, do you think customers will buy this kind of flashy design? ”
Someone below sneered quietly, and the little designer blushed and continued to look at Leng Qingxi, as if waiting for her next.
Leng Qingxi sighed, pointed to several places in the design and said, "Here, here, and here, for the so-called gorgeousness and gimmicks, these places are completely unnecessary. Coupled with these places, not only does it increase the construction cost, but it also occupies too much available space, and we are doing a shopping mall, not an art palace. ”
Leng Qingxi's comments were sharp and reasonable, and the little designer wanted to refute a few words, but he didn't find a suitable reason, so he had to sit back in his seat with a red face and a word.
Several designers laughed a little gloatingly.
Leng Qingxi made a face and said: "I don't think it's a ridiculous thing, if I am not satisfied with this design, then I can only say that I am very dissatisfied with the rest of the design." Ladies and gentlemen, you are all experienced designers. You should know what the soul of the design is, but let's take a look at these works. ”
Leng Qingxi called up two more design drafts and demonstrated them to everyone.
"Do you see the difference? The style is similar, even the design details are strikingly similar, I know this is the mainstream design trend outside, but does such a work really have a soul? Such a design work can be taken out by any small company, why should people spend a lot of money to use our Mu's? ”
Leng Qingxi's words, all the people who said it lowered their heads and stopped talking.
Indeed, these designers have developed a fixed mindset.
Now that these problems have been pointed out by Leng Qingxi one by one, everyone is somewhat ashamed.
Leng Qingxi stood up and said, "These things are not what I want, I hope you can come up with works that satisfy me as soon as possible." ”
With that, she turned and left.
