Lin Lin was about to ask what everyone was talking about about her uncle when she saw a tall, thin woman walking towards them with documents in her hands. When the people who were gossiping just now saw her, they stopped talking and returned to their workstations.
Although Manager Tsai is a middle-aged woman in her forties, she takes good care of herself and looks quite young.
She is usually very strict with her employees, and the company employees are a little afraid of her.
Manager Cai glanced at the people who had just gathered together to chat. Seeing that everyone had returned to their workstations, he pursed his lips and said nothing. He turned his head towards Lu Xiaoqiao and said, "Xiaoqiao, come to my office for a moment."
In the office, Manager Cai sat on a chair behind the desk and said, "There are two reasons why I asked you to come here. The first is that the team-building plan for Jiang Heng Group has been finalized! In addition to the subsidiaries, their CEO Zhou's own technology company is also included this time. Because of the previous relocation of the technology company, we are running out of time, so this year we will use the normal procurement method. The funds for the activity are sufficient. Our peers are now eyeing this piece of fat meat, the clothing area, and I hope you can discuss it."
Jiang Heng Group moved to the building next to them at the beginning of this year. The two newly erected office buildings almost blinded the eyes of the original residents nearby. The arrival of Jiang Heng caused the already extremely expensive housing and shop prices to rise again.
A few days ago, Lu Xiaoqiao heard from her aunt that if the rent continued to rise, with the company's current performance, she didn't know if they could continue to stay in such a high-standard office building.
Their company had taken on group purchases like this before, but Jiang Heng was not an ordinary large group. This year, they were probably trying to use the "neighborhood" sentiment card, hoping to move Jiang Heng? After all, this matter had been put on hold using the traditional bidding model, and their company did not even have the qualifications to bid.
"Manager Cai, I can only say that I tried my best, but if we can't come to an agreement, you won't deduct my bonus, will you?" Lu Xiaoqiao felt a little pressured. She also wanted to make the deal, but how could she get the meat that so many people were eyeing?
"Go for it this time. I've told your uncle-in-law that if the purchase deal with Jiang Heng Group can be negotiated, I'll transfer you to the design team."
Manager Cai knew that Lu Xiaoqiao was quite capable in sales, but she also had potential in design.
"Really? My uncle-in-law agrees? As long as the deal is done, can I be transferred to the design department?" She was originally a designer, and during her internship last year, she accidentally negotiated a large group purchase when the salesperson was away. When her uncle-in-law found out, he thought she had great potential in the sales field.
From that day on, Lu Xiaoqiao, who was still in the internship period, was transferred from the design department to the sales department. She had protested, saying that she liked design and not sales, but her aunt said that she could learn a lot in the sales department and let her do it first and then transfer back to the design department when she had the chance.
Looking at the girl's red cheeks due to excitement, Manager Cai's usually serious face also smiled: "It's true, but the premise is that you have to win the Jiang Heng project. This is their company's procurement demand. Go back and take a good look at it."
Lu Xiaoqiao took the document from Manager Tsai with a smile on her face and said, "Yes, I know. Manager Tsai, don't worry. I will definitely fight for it."
"Also, you should go to this year's fashion exhibition with Zhao Jia and the others. Your aunt helped you get the job transfer and the exhibition, so you should arrange your time accordingly."
Lu Xiaoqiao knew that Manager Cai said this so that there would be no rift between her and her aunt, but she also knew in her heart that this was also a way of telling her that this was her only chance and it depended on whether she could seize it.
After returning to his workstation, he told Lin Lin the good news that Manager Cai had told him.
"Really?" Lin Lin's expression was the same as she had in the office just now.
Lu Xiaoqiao nodded and smiled, while asking her to speak more quietly: "Don't let others know for now. I'm afraid that others will hear it and then laugh at me if I fail." After she finished speaking, she giggled herself, which showed how happy she was to be able to change jobs.
Lin Lin also nodded in response, lowered her voice, and whispered: "How can it not succeed? I will call my uncle in a moment, and he will definitely help you."
"No, please don't call me. You should handle your own problems as much as possible. Why do you want me to use a backdoor? Besides, aren't you afraid of your uncle?"
Lin Lin's parents had to work and her grandparents died early, so she and her brother lived with her grandparents since they were young. They grew up with their uncle, who was the elder. She had never seen her uncle smile since she could remember, and later, because of her grandmother's incident, he became even more silent...
Thinking of this, Lin Lin sighed and spoke even more quietly: "I am still afraid, but for you, I can risk it."
When Lu Xiaoqiao was in Manager Cai's office just now, she did have a moment when she wanted to ask Lin Lin for help. However, it was only a momentary thought. Although the two were good friends, she didn't want to trouble her friend's family because of this matter. This kind of favor is the hardest to repay.
"Don't worry about me. I want to fight for it on my own. Let's not bother your uncle with this matter."
Finally, Lin Lin couldn't persuade Lu Xiaoqiao anymore and had to give up the idea of calling Zhou Qizhen.
"Then you can go to the exhibition with us. You don't need to buy tickets. I told my brother a few days ago that he will drive us there."
Having just rejected the young sisters' kindness, Lu Xiaoqiao did not refuse again this time.
…
Jiangheng Group President's Office.
Li Yuxuan looked at Zhou Qizheng who was signing with his head down, and asked, "Why did you go home so early last night?"
He went out to answer a phone call last night, and when he came back, Lin Ziyang told him that Zhou Qizhen had gone home. He regretted it so much! He regretted why he went out to answer the phone. He had hoped to take advantage of Zhou Qizhen's slightly drunken state to find out more gossip, but he ended up holding back the gossip for the whole morning.
Zhou Qi was handing the signed document back to Li Yuxuan, who was sitting across the desk from him. "Why, no?"
Li Yuxuan took the signed document and placed it under his arm on the desk: "I didn't say no, I'm just curious about why you came back so early."
Looking at his friend's gossipy eyes, Zhou Qizheng said nothing. He took a sip of water from the cup beside him and said slowly, "Fitness."
"I feel like you're just trying to fool me. You always work out in the morning, so when did you start working out in the evening as well?" Li Yuxuan felt like his friend just didn't want to talk.
But this time Li Yuxuan really wronged him, but he didn't want to explain anything. He picked up the document that had not been reviewed next to him and opened it to continue reviewing it.
Seeing that he didn't answer her, Li Yuxuan leaned back in his chair and said quietly, "I never thought that the woman in your heart is such a young girl, and she is Lin Lin's classmate."
At this point, he leaned forward and moved closer to Zhou Qizhen: "Hey, what are you thinking? If you really like her, just chase her. With your conditions, are you afraid that you can't catch up? Maybe the girl likes you too. If it's because of age... well, a ten-year age difference is indeed a little small, but nowadays, don't girls like older men?"
Among his many friends, Zhou Qizhen was the most handsome, and his family and social status were there. He didn't believe that any woman could refuse him.
