I had already mentally prepared myself; this was bound to be a very tricky plan.
Upon reading the planning requirements in the document, even with Xu Yan's strong mentality, he still exclaimed in disbelief, "This, this is impossible."
"That's absolutely impossible!"
The other colleagues in the R&D department looked on in astonishment. Xu Yan, who was even more patient than a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, actually dared to question the director's decision. Did he really not want to work here anymore?
Everyone craned their necks to find out what kind of copywriting Xu Yan couldn't handle.
Everyone in the R&D department knows that Xu Yan is an honest man, and a very capable honest man at that.
Even though many of his research and development credits were taken by the director or shared among other colleagues, Xu Yan endured it all in the end.
No matter how complicated the plan is, as long as it is given to Xu Yan, he will definitely complete it on time.
In the eyes of everyone in the R&D department!
Xu Yan was like a robot that was dedicated to handling troubles for the entire R&D department. He had no thoughts, could not resist anyone's oppression, and could only endure hardship and live cautiously in the R&D department.
The weak will not receive any sympathy, especially someone as outstanding as Xu Yan at work, who is also very tolerant, which makes the entire R&D department treat him like a beast of burden.
Not the self-deprecating term "ox or horse" used online, but a real, hardworking ox or horse.
The director, who was used to Xu Yan swallowing his anger, snorted coldly and arrogantly issued a dismissal order to Xu Yan when he saw that Xu Yan dared to refuse the documents he had given him.
"Xu Yan, who gave you the audacity to question my decisions as the director?"
"If you're not going to do it, pack your things and get out of here right now!"
"I'll immediately notify the finance department to settle your salary!"
The director might try to persuade other colleagues in the R&D department to stay.
But if it were Xu Yan, he knew all too well that Xu Yan needed this job, and Xu Yan's family background didn't give him the confidence to resign.
Therefore, he can only be trampled underfoot forever, insulted with the most humiliating words, and described with degrading terms, and he can only endure it.
really!
The shock and anger on Xu Yan's face immediately turned into deep helplessness after hearing the director tell him to get lost.
Xu Yan took a deep breath, making his expression appear devout. He softened his tone and pleaded in a low voice, "Director, I'm sorry, I was presumptuous. Please don't be angry."
"I'll do this plan."
The director glanced at Xu Yan, and even though Xu Yan had already bowed his head and admitted his mistake, the director still couldn't help but try to dampen his spirits.
"Young man, don't be so assertive. The company can function normally without you."
"Don't think you're unique."
"If it weren't for the fact that you're a long-time employee, I would have fired you right now. A new person would take your place tomorrow, so you'd better know your place."
Xu Yan was slightly bent over. Although he was only in his thirties, he looked like a man in his sixties who had to bend over to make a living.
"Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Director. I will definitely live up to your trust."
"I'll do it right now!"
The director gave a disdainful snort and turned to leave.
Only after the director left did Xu Yan finally dare to raise his head, which had been hanging down the whole time.
His fingers gripped the document so tightly they turned white, yet he dared not show any sign of dissatisfaction.
Xu Yan took a deep breath and sat back down in his chair: "With only a budget of twenty million, no matter what I do, it's far from enough..."
Just looking at the budget made Xu Yan feel his temples throbbing, giving him a terrible headache.
In previous years, the budget for the Zhou family's annual celebration was around 200 million yuan. When Old Madam Zhou was alive, the budget was even 300 to 500 million yuan. Now it's getting lower and lower.
But this year's budget is only 20 million?!
Based on the scale of the Zhou family's annual celebrations in the past, 20 million yuan wouldn't be enough to accomplish anything.
Booking a luxury hotel would cost seven figures, and setting up the venue would cost a lot more, not to mention the fruit, food, gift packages, photography, etc., which is not enough at all!
The annual event budget was 20 million, but they demanded it be based on a budget of 200 million, requiring the best hotel to be booked, the most luxurious facilities and equipment to be used, and everything to be done exactly as before...
Before we knew it, it was already 10 p.m.
Xu Yan still hadn't figured out how to create the highest-standard annual ceremony with the lowest budget. The R&D department was completely dark; everyone had gone home, except for the light still on at Xu Yan's desk.
The cell phone rang abruptly in the quiet office.
Xu Yan glanced at his phone; it was a call from his younger brother, Xu Ping.
After I pressed the answer button, Xu Ping's voice came from the other end.
"Brother, are you staying at the company to work overtime again today?"
“You never eat dinner when you work overtime, that won’t do, I’ll bring you some food.”
Hearing the concern from his family, Xu Yan took a deep breath, his eyes welling up with tears.
He was his younger siblings' hope, and he couldn't show any weakness in front of them. He could only suppress the grievances in his heart and say in a deep voice:
"No need to come over, I've already eaten."
"You should put your younger siblings to bed early; I'll sleep at the company tonight."
Amid Xu Ping's complaints, Xu Yan silently hung up the phone.
Xu Yan took out a cigarette he hadn't smoked in a long time from the drawer, put it in his mouth, and lit it with a lighter.
I got up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window. Standing here, I could see the entire night view of Luzhou. The 3D show on the opposite building kept changing patterns, as if it was about to emerge from the building.
The realistic visual experience elicited gasps of amazement from pedestrians in the plaza below.
Xu Yan stared at the 3D animation very close to him with a weathered look in his eyes. The beard on his face was so realistic that it looked like it was about to pounce on him.
at the same time.
The rest of the R&D department had just finished a party and were all drunk as they came out of the restaurant.
"Thank you for the treat, Director."
"This meal must have cost a lot of money. The director is so generous. Other departments are envious of us being in the R&D department."
"Director, I'm drunk. Can you take me home?"
The director reached out meaningfully to help the drunk female colleague.
"You're so drunk, do you even know where you live?"
Seeing this, the others wisely took their leave and left, not daring to disturb the director's enjoyment.
The director then took the woman into the car and drove towards the hotel.
The woman looked at the director with a dazed expression, and then, as if feeling a bit hot in the car, she opened her collar a little wider.
"Director, with such a small budget this time, why should our R&D department take on the planning of this annual event?"
Emboldened by the alcohol, the woman voiced her question.
The director wasn't one to take a loss lying down. The budget was far from meeting the annual standards, and the gap was far too large, but the director still took it on.
