Chen Xu first went to see Lao Wang and told him that he agreed to be transferred to the new department. For such matters, he must tell his immediate superior first.
Then I would like to thank Lao Wang for his care over the past year.
"To be honest, I'm not willing to let you go." Lao Wang patted his shoulder and said with a half-seriously half-smile, "It's almost the end of the year, and it's the busiest time. If you leave, we'll have something to do."
"But you have a better future ahead of you, and I can't hold you back."
Chen Xu smiled and didn't know how to respond. To be honest, Lao Wang was a good person and could be considered a good boss.
Lao Wang suggested, "How about this, to celebrate your move to the new department, let's have a dinner party tonight and everyone can come."
Chen Xu quickly dispelled his idea and advised, "Boss, don't do it. It's too high-profile."
Lao Wang thought about it and it made sense. The whole company was watching the establishment of a new department. It would have a bad impact if it was so publicized. He said with some regret, "What a pity. I must make up for it next time."
"Okay, okay." Chen Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had never met anyone who liked dinner parties so much.
"Let's go and say goodbye to our colleagues." Lao Wang took him out.
When Lao Wang announced to his colleagues in the advertising department that Chen Xu had been transferred to a new department, they were all surprised. Some were envious, some were jealous, and there were all kinds of expressions.
Everyone congratulated him, whether sincerely or not, and no one said anything weird. They just urged him to treat them to a meal.
Chen Xu could only say, "Remember it for next time."
After a while, everyone dispersed, leaving only Old Tang. Chen Xu knew that among these people, Old Tang was probably the only one who was truly happy for him.
After a while, it was time for lunch break.
Chen Xu went to the restaurant they often went to with Lao Tang.
"About your job change?" Old Tang asked about this in a low voice when he saw that there were no familiar faces around.
Chen Xu said, "No need to change, let's just do it this way for now."
Old Tang nodded, and then said with some emotion, "Old Liu and Old Guo both went to Old Wang to apply for transfer to the new department. Old Wang asked them to write an application, but it was rejected by the Human Resources Department. I didn't expect you to do it without any fuss."
Chen Xu finally understood why the two men looked so unhappy. He said, "Actually, I don't understand why they chose me."
Old Tang thought about it for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because your resume is relatively clean."
"What do you mean?" Chen Xu was a little confused.
"I'm just guessing," said Old Tang. "Boss Liu was parachuted in last year. There were rumors at the time that he was here to take over from Boss Zhou. The establishment of this new department was driven by Boss Liu, and he must want to make some achievements. Someone like you with a clean resume is naturally the best choice."
"So that's how it is." Chen Xu listened to his analysis and felt it made sense.
"However, you have to be careful when you go to the new department." Old Tang reminded him, "The establishment of the new department has caused such a stir. I always feel that something might go wrong."
Chen Xu nodded. In fact, some things are not difficult to guess. In the past, Mr. Zhou had the final say in the company. However, since Mr. Liu was parachuted in, the situation has changed. In the past year, many department heads have been replaced. This is the rhythm of seizing power. Can Mr. Zhou tolerate it? However, these things had nothing to do with him before, and they have even less to do with him now. He doesn't care much.
…………
After dinner, Chen Xu returned to the company, began to pack his personal belongings, and reported to the new department.
When he went there, a new sign had been hung up. It was not the marketing department as rumored, but the "Electronic Sales Department".
There were a few people in the office, probably his new colleagues. He knocked on the door, walked in and introduced himself.
Next, new colleagues continued to come in.
Chen Xu watched coldly and found that most of the people who came were young people, and very few were over 30 years old.
When all were present, he counted them, and, including himself, there were fourteen in all.
After a while, Mr. Liu also showed up, and with him was someone Chen Xu had not expected, Luo Xiyun.
He suddenly remembered that she and Mr. Liu were parachuted in at about the same time, so it was not surprising that they would cooperate.
President Liu took everyone to the conference room and held a meeting.
Mr. Liu's name is Liu Kun, he is about 34 or 35 years old, handsome, eloquent, and he stands there talking. Chen Xu looks at him with some envy. In the past, what he wanted most was to become such a successful person. Someone like Liu Kun is his goal.
Unfortunately, the cruel reality made him realize that he could not become someone like Liu Kun. He could not tell about his abilities. But he graduated from a prestigious university and had studied abroad. Just in this respect, he could not compare.
You know, his starting point was a famous foreign investment bank. After working there for a few years, he jumped to a corporate position. But in his thirties, he was already qualified to take over the CEO position of a large company.
Soon, Chen Xu suppressed these messy thoughts and listened carefully. After a while, he understood what this new department was for.
Liu Kun plans to build an online channel to expand the supermarket's customer base. To put it bluntly, it is to do e-commerce.
Specifically, the first step is to rely on the company's ten chain supermarkets to provide door-to-door delivery services within a certain range.
We are all young people who shop online frequently, so it is easy to understand.
Next, Liu Kun began to assign tasks and positions to everyone. Chen Xu was in charge of similar tasks as before, also in the area of advertising. This made him feel relieved, as he was familiar with all these tasks and could start working right away.
Finally, it was Luo Xiyun. She was still the director, but she became the director of the electronic sales department. After all, Liu Kun was the vice president of the company, and he had a lot of other things to do, so he couldn't always be here. When he was not around, Luo Xiyun had the final say.
Although Chen Xu had a premonition, he still frowned. She actually became his immediate superior.
Next, Luo Xiyun took the stage to speak.
Chen Xu saw Luo Xiyun, who was completely different from the one in his dream. That kind of confidence, that kind of strength, that kind of concentration made him feel a little shaken.
Is she in reality the same person as she in the dream? This meeting lasted for an entire afternoon.
After work, Liu Kun suggested that everyone in the department go out for dinner together to celebrate the establishment of the new department.
Naturally no one would object.
PS: Thank you all for your voting support.
