Chapter 62 Chapter 62 She Crossed the Line
Yu Wan had no time to work during the day, and at night he lay in bed tossing and turning, thinking about the reason, and carefully examining his work status during this period -
Was it because of her recent promotion and salary increase that she got complacent? Was it because she wasn't paying enough attention when she took over the project and made some mistakes that she didn't notice? Was it because she didn't handle the follow-up work of the project she was responsible for last time thoroughly...
She tossed and turned, thinking about countless possibilities, but still had no clue. She stared at the ceiling with her eyes open, feeling that this was not going to work.
The next day, after Yu Wan finished her work, she deliberately chose a time when Fu Zhiyao was free to knock on the door and enter Fu Zhiyao's office.
Fu Zhiyao was reading a document. When he saw Yu Wan come in, he neither asked her anything nor urged her to leave. He signed at the end of the document calmly.
Yu Wan pursed her dry lips and spoke bluntly, "Boss, have I made any mistakes in my work recently, or have I not fully understood any of your instructions? Could you please tell me and I will work hard to improve."
Fu Zhiyao paused as he signed and looked at Yu Wan.
Yu Wan stood three steps away from the desk, her hands hanging at her sides unconsciously clenched, her lips slightly pursed, her expression stiff and uneasy. For a moment, Fu Zhiyao imagined Yu Wan just entering the president's office. At that time, because he couldn't hear Yu Wan's inner thoughts, he speculated too much about her and his attitude was not friendly.
But at that time, he could still criticize Yu Wan as a matter of course, and didn't care about Yu Wan's mood, because Yu Wan was just a transitional assistant while he was waiting for a suitable secretary. Yu Wan could leave the president's office at any time, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to Yu Wan.
But now, nearly seven months later, Fu Zhiyao felt the slap he had slapped on his face.
Yu Wan might be just like Xiao Cheng and other ordinary employees, respectful to him on the surface but hating his dictatorship and bad temper in his heart.
Seven years have passed since he joined the company, and the label of "big devil" has been firmly attached to him by his employees.
What did Yu Wan think of him?
So, after two seconds of silence, Fu Zhiyao handed a document to Yu Wan and avoided answering her question. "Yinxun Technology has just launched a smartwatch. We need to follow up on the offline pop-up store promotion on the day of the new brand launch. Go to the marketing department and find the relevant colleagues... and participate in the pop-up store layout for the new product launch. Write the report according to your original template and give it to me after the event."
Yu Wan froze in place, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She seemed to understand what Fu Zhiyao meant. It was not that she was not doing her job well enough, nor that she was lazy and not motivated. He just simply couldn't stand her as a person.
Yu Wan knew what to do and didn't ask any more questions. She took the information from Fu Zhiyao and said in a restrained and calm voice, "Thank you, boss. I will try my best."
The office door closed.
Yu Wan's voice with a hint of loss was still lingering in his ears. Fu Zhiyao suddenly felt that the document in his hand became obscure and difficult to understand. Every word seemed to be running around on the paper. After reading a sentence, the core processor of his brain seemed to be on strike and unable to understand. He rubbed his eyebrows irritably, turned around and sent a message to Cai Yang, asking him to order him a cup of iced American coffee without sugar.
On the other hand, Yu Wan, who returned to the president's office, forced herself to calm down and carefully learn the relevant information about smart watches.
She felt lost inside, but Yu Wan couldn't explain why, because she couldn't stand on an emotional or professional high ground to blame the other party for their cold treatment.
Was Fu Zhiyao rude to her? No, he chatted with her normally, but it was all about work.
Did Fu Zhiyao want to isolate her and force her to resign? No, he gave her offline projects like pop-up store events, which she had never participated in before and was worth learning.
Fu Zhiyao did nothing wrong. He was just like when she first became his secretary for no reason and interned in the president's office.
She was the one who crossed the line. She thought they had a close enough relationship that they could talk casually and say whatever they wanted without hiding anything.
But why would Fu Zhiyao cooperate?
He is the boss and she is the secretary. He gives orders and she obeys.
Yu Wan felt a sore throat. She picked up the water cup beside her and took a sip, barely swallowing the bitterness. She tried hard to concentrate on her work, ignoring the ups and downs of her mood.
If you want to know about new smart watches, you need to understand Yinxun Technology, the company behind the watches.
As one of the three pillar companies of the Fu family, Yinxun Technology has many categories of products, mainly operating mobile phones, tablets, smart home appliances and automobiles. For example, Ansu is Yinxun's trump product, all of which are based on the same ecological chip. In order to avoid being restricted by foreign chips, Yinxun Technology has invested a lot in chip research, and the results are obvious. Many people cannot live, travel, and play without Yinxun products, and netizens jokingly call it the "Silver Universe."
Assistant General Manager Lin went to the branch of Yinxun Technology at that time.
After reading the information, Yu Wan basically understood why Fu Zhiyao asked her to participate. There is not much difference between smart watches and smart phones in terms of basic functions, but because of the small size of smart watches, the product function positioning needs to express more differentiation, such as being equipped with a corresponding health monitoring system to analyze heart rate, blood oxygen and sleep, and being deeply integrated with the YinHe ecosystem of Yinxun's mobile phone brand, supporting independent communication, message viewing and replying, mobile payment, etc.
This new smartwatch is naturally related to the "Good Doctor" medical platform launched some time ago. It plays a greater role in health monitoring, conforming to the attitude of modern young people in pursuing a healthy life. At the same time, the appearance has been upgraded, focusing on gender-neutral simplicity and elegance, but with a rich variety of watch strap options, which can meet the needs of the elderly and satisfy the aesthetics of young people.
With work priorities in mind, Yu Wan was too busy to think about Fu Zhiyao in the next few days.
Having held offline flash mob events at least ten times before, the marketing department already had ample experience. However, each flash mob event had a different theme and required different challenges: how to set up the venue, how to coordinate online and offline promotion, and whether to hire online influencers and other bloggers for publicity and promotion.
After attending several meetings with colleagues in Guan Yanxuan's department who were in charge of flash mob activities, Yu Wan suddenly realized the gap between herself and these top students. Their minds and thinking were more flexible and their imagination and energy were strong. Often, Yu Wan would just say an idea, and others would clap their hands and immediately improve it, and come up with more brilliant ideas that would add icing on the cake.
On the one hand, Yu Wan felt disappointed with his intellectual deficiencies, but on the other hand, he was delighted to be able to participate in such a brainstorming session, and he took notes more diligently.
Including the time for the flash mob event, Yu Wan was busy for nearly half a month. During this half month, Yu Wan and Fu Zhiyao met and talked very few times.
Yu Wan counted them, maybe five times. Fu Zhiyao was even busier at work than she was, going on business trips to neighboring cities, attending financial ecosystem summits, and unveiling new partnerships...
They occasionally met in the company, and every time she took the initiative to say hello, Fu Zhiyao just gave her a faint look and didn't even bother to reply with a "hmm".
The pop-up store event ended at 5 pm on Saturday, and colleagues from the marketing department enthusiastically invited Yu Wan to attend the celebration banquet.
When she arrived at the scene, Yu Wan didn't see Director Guan, so she curiously asked a female colleague she knew.
During the organization of the flash mob event, Director Guan only appeared during meetings, and left the rest of the time to them. He only made decisions on the flash mob event plan and venue. During the three-day offline flash mob event, Director Guan only appeared on the first and last days.
Yu Wan thought he would celebrate with them.
The female colleague was not surprised and hooked her arm around Yu Wan's shoulder. "Hey, why are you paying attention to Director Guan? He's just like that. He doesn't like to join in the fun. If you ask him to come, he'll find you annoying. He's such a cold guy. A girl in our department confessed her love to him before, but he said a few words to her and she resigned. She doesn't even dare to submit her resume to this area, for fear of meeting Director Guan."
The female colleague was familiar with Yu Wan and knew that she was not the kind of person who liked to gossip, so she felt comfortable telling her these gossips.
She lowered her voice and motioned Yu Wan to come closer. Yu Wan leaned over and heard her say, "It's a match for the Great Devil."
After saying that, the female colleague blinked and said, "Secretary Yu, I know you are a big celebrity around Mr. Fu, but please don't tell Mr. Fu about this, please."
Yu Wan: "I won't tell you."
Moreover, Yu Wan didn't think that Fu Zhiyao didn't know that the employees privately called him the Big Devil, but as long as it didn't affect the work and the company's development, there was no need to say anything. Could he be like the homeroom teacher in school days, emphasizing all day long that people should not give teachers nicknames?
After joining the President's Office and following Fu Zhiyao for so long, Yu Wan's belief in the title of "Big Devil" has changed from being unshakable at first to being shaken now.
Previously, when Yu Wan accompanied a client to eat Japanese food at Binqing, she was a novice. It was her first time eating sashimi and seeing all kinds of strange and exotic fish. She had no idea about the etiquette of eating Japanese food and was afraid of making a fool of herself and leaving a bad impression on the client.
Fu Zhiyao noticed her reservedness and naturally poured her a cup of hot tea to attract her attention. For the next half of the time, Yu Wan followed Fu Zhiyao's example. She could clearly feel that Fu Zhiyao deliberately slowed down his movements to take care of her.
After the meal, Yu Wan expressed his gratitude to him, and Fu Zhiyao nodded to indicate his acceptance.
Would someone who pays attention to details and doesn't blame her for not knowing how to eat Japanese food use cold violence for no reason?
Yu Wan didn't believe that Fu Zhiyao couldn't see her frustration and depression.
Unconsciously, Yu Wan drank a few more glasses of wine. Fortunately, she had a good alcohol tolerance and did not look red after a few glasses. She could still chat with others normally.
It was already past nine in the evening when the dinner ended. Yu Wan said goodbye to his colleagues in the marketing department and walked towards the subway station. Because of the alcohol, his steps suddenly became a little unsteady.
But at this time, the night was pitch black, and the brightly lit sea city was like a giant machine, running without stopping for a moment. The pedestrians on the roadside were either hurried or leisurely. Yu Wan was mixed in the vast crowd and rarely enjoyed this moment of relaxation. She didn't need to work hard, didn't need to think about whether her clothes were appropriate and neat, didn't need to ponder her boss's thoughts, and didn't need to guess why Fu Zhiyao became indifferent.
It’s nice to have an empty head.
Just seconds after entering the subway station, Yu Wan received a call from Mao Xinling.
On the other end of the line came Mao Xinling's panicked voice: "...Yu Wan, do you have time now? Can you, can you come and help me,... I'm sorry, I really can't think of anyone else, I'm... our boss is outside the door, he's... trying to come in, I'm alone, I'm scared, Yu Wan, can you help me?"
Mao Xinling's voice was tearful and trembling uncontrollably. Her words were disordered because of fear. Between her gasps, one could vaguely hear the dull sound of the door being slammed, mixed with a man's threatening voice.
Yu Wan's mind suddenly cleared up, and he immediately ran out of the subway station against the flow of people.
"No trouble, Xinling, lock the door and tell me where you are. I'll take a taxi to find you. Before that, protect yourself first and look around for any handy tools. I'll be right there."
"...Yeah, I know." Mao Xinling bit her fingers tightly, not daring to cry out loudly, "Thank you, Yu Wan."
There was a big temperature difference between inside and outside the subway station. As soon as Yu Wan came out, she was swept by a huge heat wave. She kept an eye on the taxis on the roadside while locating them on the taxi app. Soon, an idle taxi arrived in front of her.
Yu Wan got in the car and said anxiously, "Master, let's go to Bihai Green Land. Please hurry up."
