The clear and bright autumn sun shines in lazily through the tall glass curtain wall.

New office. The room was spacious and bright, the floor was mopped, and the people could almost be seen.

New desks and chairs, new sofas, new curtains, everything reveals a fresh life.

Sitting at his desk, bathed in the warm light of the yellow halo, Li Ji had a feeling of being separated from the world.

Three months and eleven days, these were the days he stayed at the Chengdong Branch, and it was also the day he left the city.

Changed?

It feels like it is, and it doesn't seem to be.

Li Ji walked into the office building of the city bank again, and he was greeted with a familiar feeling. It's just that this feeling is familiar, and it is clear that it has been dyed with several different colors.

Liu Lang is here again.

It's a pity that what Li Ji remembered in his mind was another sentence: "Damn, I, Hu Hansan, are back again!" ”

He finally chose to compromise and called Wan Daming.

After listening to Li Ji's speech, Wan Daming only said softly, "I know", and then there were no more extra words.

Two days later, he solemnly called Li Ji to tell him that the other party had withdrawn the complaint.

Li Ji's so-called "bribery" naturally does not exist. Neither of them pursued each other anymore, as if it had never happened.

Li Ji was stunned.

This kind of incident, which is very likely to have involved a criminal offense, can be so easily dissolved by just a few people behind it and a few unknown words. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he couldn't believe it was true.

Although I still have a lot of questions in my heart, I don't want to know at this time.

Li Ji didn't want to ask about the responsibility of Ma Tao's false accusation. Obviously, he is a little minion, who was used as a gun.

The real Lord is still behind him. As for whether it is Tao Ping, or Tao Shanming, or anyone else, there is no way to know, and I don't want to know now.

It's an invisible net, but it's real.

Afterwards, Li Ji went to Wanjia to express his gratitude.

He didn't ask the old man about the negotiation with the other party, and Wan Daming didn't say a word.

Li Ji told Wan Daming everything that happened after going to the branch, and especially told Ye Xin what happened to him.

Wan Daming listened, was silent for a long time, and said, "If you can't leave CCB for the time being, then go." ”

As soon as he got to work the next day, Li Ji called Ye Xin and told him his decision.

Ye Xin was not surprised, his voice was still normal, as if he had known that Li Ji would do this.

It only took a day and a half for Li Ji to return to the city bank from the branch and become the "special assistant to the president".

At this moment, Li Ji walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the street scene that he had seen countless times outside, and the last trace of submission and humiliation in his heart finally faded.

The sun is shining, just like the mood at the moment.

Li Ji stared for a long time.

"Hey! Assistant Li, hello! ”

This sudden voice startled Li Ji. He hurriedly turned around, only to see a beautiful figure flashing in at the door, it was Liu Min.

He was suddenly a little embarrassed, and his face was hot: "Oh, it's Secretary Liu." ”

"Assistant Li, President Ye asked me to send these documents over, please take a look."

Liu Min smiled playfully, swayed his waist slightly, took a few steps forward, stretched out his fingers like green onions, and put a stack of documents on the desk.

Li Ji hurriedly walked back and sat down.

The familiar smell of perfume, mixed with the slightly damp body fragrance of a woman, penetrated into the nostrils without hindrance.

Li Ji subconsciously flashed back, and he didn't pay attention, and almost slipped off the chair.

He hurriedly held on to the table and smiled unnaturally: "Okay, okay...... You put it here......"

Liu Minyan smiled, her teeth like silver: "Assistant Li, this chair is not easy to sit on, you have to be careful." ”

As he spoke, he gurgled and turned away.

It's hard to sit?!

Li Ji was stunned, and his eyes involuntarily followed Liu Min's graceful back and kept looking out of the door.

It wasn't until the person went to the shadow sky that only the dark fragrance remained, and Li Ji came back to his senses.

This Nizi, is it said casually, or does it have another deep meaning?

Li Ji's face was full of suspicion.

He lowered his head and flipped through the stack of documents, which were basically the recent reports of the provincial bank on the deposit and loan business.

Li Ji settled down and began to look at them one by one. Looking at it, his brow furrowed.

For two consecutive months, the deposit and loan assessment index of Windy City Branch ranked first in the province.

No wonder Governor Ye is in a hurry. If the rankings continue to count down next month, I am afraid it will not be as simple as a written report.

Regardless of whether it is a black cat or a white cat, it is a good cat to catch a mouse.

Everything depends on performance.

Performance is like a person's face, it is the face of the enterprise.

If the performance is not good, the leader will not have the confidence to speak, and the waist will not be straight. In the long run, there is probably only one way to go, and that is: roll up the cover and walk neatly.

Although the report is not good, if you don't take it to heart, it doesn't matter.

However, if the performance of the Fengcheng branch does not improve for a long time, the provincial bank may have to take real action, kill the killer, and make up its mind to adjust the leadership team of the branch.

Just like Zhuge Liang back then, no matter how much he appreciated Ma Yan, he still had to behead him with tears because he lost the street pavilion. Although the street pavilion is small, the stakes are high.

Similarly, although President Ye is sent by the provincial bank, he has some foundations; But when the performance of the president is not good, the leaders of the provincial bank cannot speak for him.

It's like running a team. If the team's results are not good, the first choice is to fire the head coach.

The reason is simple.

The club, or the investor, will definitely not fire himself unless he doesn't want to play.

Of course, it's easy to think about sacking one or two players, but it's almost impossible to fire all the players.

The only thing left is the manager.

There is only one manager. In the eyes of the outside world and the public, the quality of the team's performance is a direct reflection of the manager's personal ability.

A soldier bears a nest of bears.

The team's poor results are naturally due to the manager's coaching skills. If you want to take responsibility, the head coach will bear the brunt of it, and it is natural to leave the class.

In this way, if the performance of the branch continues to decline, Ye Xin will leave before the end of the year, which is not alarmist.

Li Ji's years at the credit gate are not too short.

Although the Fengcheng branch is not the top in the province, it has always remained in the first echelon, and sometimes even rushes to the top three. He'd never seen anything like this.

It's not normal, it's not normal.

Li Ji instinctively sensed that there must be something wrong with this.

It is normal for deposits and loans to fluctuate, and no bank has never risen or fallen. But such a cliff-like decline is absolutely abnormal for a mature branch.

Excluding force majeure in special cases, one cannot but suspect that there are human factors manipulating behind it.

Li Jizheng thought about it intently, and the sound of crisp high heels sounded outside the door. Looking up, Liu Min was already standing at the door.

Li Ji subconsciously stood up.

Seeing him like this, Liu Min's originally serious face showed a delicate smile, and his eyes were moist: "Assistant Li, President Ye invites you to his office!" ”

"Good! Good! ”

Li Ji agreed, put down the papers, and walked out behind Liu Min.

Liu Min took a few steps forward, but deliberately slowed down his pace. When Li Ji got closer, she suddenly turned her head and almost touched Li Ji's face.

Li Ji was taken aback, and the tip of Liu Min's nose was about to touch his chin.

He panicked, hurriedly stopped, and leaned back: "Secretary Liu, what's wrong?" ”

"Giggle, cluck, ......"

Liu Min laughed happily.

This Nizi, people are crazy. Li Ji was confused, scratched his cheek with his hand, and looked at Liu Min a little helplessly.

Liu Min laughed even harder.

"Hey! Hi ......"

Li Ji pointed his finger at the governor's room behind Liu Min.

"Miss, don't be crazy, let the president hear ......"

Liu Min stuck out his tongue, hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and looked over there with some weakness.

Then, she turned around and leaned into Li Ji's ear: "Mr. Li, why do I think you came back this time, like a different person......

"Someone else?"

Li Ji was stunned,

"That's right," Liu Min shook a small figure in his eyes, "It's the same as a new son-in-law who goes to his mother-in-law's house for the first time, hahaha......"

Saying that, Liu Min couldn't help but want to laugh again. She looked at the door of the governor's room, but immediately covered her mouth.

"Who's new son-in-law?" Li Ji snorted, "Your family? ”

"Hehe, our family!"

Liu Min wrinkled his nose playfully, and a bright peach blossom bloomed in his eyes, which made Li Ji a little upset.

He couldn't help blushing, smiled, hurriedly bypassed Liu Min's side, and walked quickly towards the president's room.

The door to the president's office was closed.

Li Jili stood at the door, straightened his shirt, exhaled, and knocked lightly on the door.

No one answered.

Li Ji was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Come in!"

At this time, Ye Xin's somewhat dull voice came from the house.

Li Ji pushed open the door, and a choking smell of smoke rushed out. He had an itchy throat and coughed several times in quick succession.

Ye Xin stood there, holding the corner of the table with one hand, his eyes fixed on a report on the table, and the cigarette between his other fingers was still smoking.

"Governor Ye......"

Li Ji cleared his throat, stepped forward, and screamed softly.

"Oh, it's Xiao Li," Ye Xin raised his eyes slightly, and immediately lowered his head, "You sit first, I'll ......be fine right away."

Li Ji walked in lightly and sat down on the sofa.

Most of the smoke in the room has dissipated, but the slightly spicy smell of the fog still makes people feel very uncomfortable.

Li Ji looked at it and saw that the ashtray in front of Ye Xin was already covered with cigarette butts. Ye Xin squinted, and his face was very ugly.

"How? It's okay. ”

After a long while, Ye Xin raised his head and asked with a smile.

Ye Xin's voice was a little weak. Only then did Li Ji notice that his complexion looked very haggard and slightly pale.

"Well, that's good, Governor Ye."

Li Ji got up slightly and replied.

"You have to get into the role as soon as possible and take on the work for me."

Ye Xin sat down and leaned back in the chair.

"Well," Li Ji nodded, "Governor Ye, I'll do my best." ”

"It's not about trying, it's about doing it."

Ye Xin glanced at Li Ji, looked at the full ashtray on the table, threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, and stepped on it hard.

"The provincial bank has given me an ultimatum," Ye Xin shook his head with a wry smile, "On the basis of the end of June, the balance of deposits and loans will increase by more than 50% at the end of the year; If you can't meet the target, you will resign voluntarily at the end of the year. ”

Li Ji nodded, biting his lip.

"You see, the deposit is still declining, and the loan is not much better...... Ye Xin grabbed the statement thrown on the table and raised it towards Li Ji, "If it goes on like this, it seems that I can only fire myself at the end of the year." ”

"President Ye, I think it's ......" Li Ji hesitated, "I think it's been very abnormal in the past few months......"

"Hmm," Ye Xin nodded, "I can see it too......"

"In addition to the Chengdong branch, there are a few outlets, deposits and loans are growing, and other institutions are almost all in deficit."

Ye Xin walked out and paced a few steps around the room.

"President Ye, I think it doesn't make much sense to investigate the reasons now. It is still necessary to think of ways to get the deposit and loan business up and running as soon as possible. ”

"Yes," Ye Xin exhaled vigorously, looking out the window, "I'm also having a headache with this ......"

Fragments of light and shadow fall on the glass curtain wall, like algae fluttering in the water.

"Governor Ye, how much autonomy can the provincial bank give you in this matter?"

Li Ji looked at Ye Xin's face and asked.

"Huh?"

Ye Xin was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Li Ji.

Li Ji stared quietly, waiting for Ye Xin to answer.

"As long as the target can be completed by the end of the year," Ye Xin's fingers gently touched his chin, "My requirements can basically be met by the provincial bank." ”

"In this case," Li Ji stood up, his eyes full of anticipation, "I suggest that the assessment method for deposits and loans in the whole bank be revised." ”
