Chapter 58
Wang Dayu was unaware of the company's HR director Liu Qingqing and Sucheng delivery department project manager Pan Lulu's feelings for Lian Yijian before the H1 sprint summary meeting, but their behavior was now too obvious. This farce was nothing to Wang Dayu, who had experienced many ups and downs. He signaled to the people sitting in the conference room to quiet down when discussing the matter.
Lian Yijian didn't chase after him. He returned to his seat and sat down.
After the conference room calmed down, Wang Dayu slowly spoke, "After careful consideration by Yi Jian and I, we've decided that Xia Zhongqin will be appointed as the PMO for the Sunan District. As Yi Jian's eyes, she will oversee all ongoing projects in the Sunan District and conduct customer satisfaction reviews for projects that have already been accepted. Customers are the foundation of our survival. I hope that the brothers and sisters in the Sunan District will support Miss Xia's work as much as they support Yi Jian's."
After the official announcement of the Southern Jiangsu District PMO, Wang Dayu asked Lian Yijian, who was sitting in the first row, "Yijian, do you have anything else to add?"
Lian Yijian stood up and walked to the stage. He took the microphone from Wang Dayu and said, "The PMO position is crucial and important to the entire delivery department in Southern Jiangsu. I've interviewed many candidates or had them recommended by acquaintances, but I haven't found a suitable one until Xia Zhongqin showed up. I believe Xia Zhongqin can do a good job as the PMO for Southern Jiangsu. I also ask the brothers and sisters in the Southern Jiangsu Delivery Department and other departments to support her as you support my work. Thank you."
Lian Yijian suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Zhong Qin, do you have anything to say?"
She knew that Liu Qingqing and Xia Lulu's overreaction towards her just now was because of Lian Yijian. Apart from finding it funny, she had no other thoughts. When she saw Lian Yijian angrily scolding Liu Qingqing and Xia Lulu for defending her, her heart felt warm. She really wanted to send a WeChat message to Lian Yijian, but the occasion was not suitable. This feeling needed to be expressed in person to be more genuine.
Xia Zhongqin, who had been listening attentively since Lian Yijian came on stage again, was still a little nervous when she suddenly heard Lian Yijian's question. She quickly calmed down, stood up, and walked to the stage with her head held high. With a faint smile on her face, she took the microphone from someone who was looking at her with a smile in his eyes. The person did not walk off the stage, but stood silently beside her.
Xia Zhongqin grew up in a nursing home. Before she entered junior high school, whenever there was an activity in the nursing home and she was there, she would often play the harmonica for the elderly there. Usually, dozens of elderly people would watch her perform with performers invited from outside by the nursing home. This has trained her to be fearless, and today she is exceptionally confident.
Xia Zhongqin was wearing a beige long dress in traditional Chinese style today. She no longer wore the sandals that had been digging into her instep, but changed into a pair of small white shoes. Her shoulder-length hair was tied into a high ponytail, and the confidence in her bright eyes could not be concealed.
She first thanked the company, Wang Dayu and Lian Yijian for their trust in her, then shared her true feelings about being appointed as PMO on the spot, and finally expressed her determination to do a good job as the PMO in Southern Jiangsu District.
Xia Zhongqin's words were simple and sincere, without any boasting in her voice, just like the feeling she gave people - as gentle as the spring breeze, like the older sister next door.
As she finished her last sentence, "Thank you for your support," there was applause from the audience except for a few people.
From the moment Xia Zhongqin came on stage, Liu Qingqing looked at her with resentment, but Xia Zhongqin, who was speaking seriously on the stage, didn't notice it at all. Even if she noticed, she wouldn't have been self-destructive.
Xia Zhongqin's ability to control the situation was so stable that Lian Yijian, who had been standing silently by her side to protect her, had not expected it. The approval in his eyes couldn't help but deepen a little.
After finishing her speech on the stage, Xia Zhongqin handed the microphone to Lian Yijian who was next to her. When handing the microphone back to Lian Yijian, the two smiled at each other, which was a silent greeting. Then Xia Zhongqin quickly came down from the stage and returned to her seat.
Lian Yijian, who took the microphone, had nothing to say. He gave the microphone to Wang Dayu, who was sitting next to Liu Qingqing, and started the next Q3 mobilization.
The mobilization for Q3 this year started the same as last year. The big screen displayed various indicators (new contract signing rate, collection status, old contract conversion rate, project delivery rate) issued by the headquarters to the region, as well as the rewards for completing or exceeding the corresponding indicators, and the corresponding penalties for failing to meet the performance targets.
After the introduction of this part last year, the entire Q3 mobilization meeting ended. When this part ended this year, Wang Dayu asked Sun Yaya and Liu Qingqing to go to his office to get the military order.
There are 10 military orders for Q3 this time, 2 for each of the four areas in southern Jiangsu (Sucheng, Liangxi, Tianning, and Tongzhou), one for sales and one for delivery, and 2 for sales and delivery in the entire southern Jiangsu region.
The 10 military orders that Sun Yaya and Liu Qingqing brought were all blank. At the meeting, Wang Dayu asked the relevant persons in charge to fill in the indicators issued by the headquarters on the military orders.
Lian Yijian was the only person in charge who filled out two military orders, one for the delivery targets for the entire southern Jiangsu region, and the other for the delivery targets for Suzhou City.
After the relevant persons in charge completed filling out their respective military orders, Wang Dayu arranged for the persons in charge to hold their own military orders and let Sun Yaya take photos on the spot so that they could be used as materials for regional news releases.
The meeting lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon without anyone noticing. All the important summaries and announcements were completed one by one. Wang Dayu adjourned the meeting and asked Sun Yaya to send the dinner location to the Suzhou and Southern Jiangsu District group.
The dinner place was the Water Paradise Hotel in Moon Bay. You could take the subway Line 1 from the Xinghu Street station outside their company and transfer to Line 2 at Guangjinan Road. As soon as the meeting ended, Ji Yue said, "Sister, it's still early. Why don't we take the subway together?"
But before Xia Zhongqin could respond, Lian Yijian had already walked quickly to where they were sitting. "Zhongqin, you stay with Teacher Xia. I'll take your car over later."
At this time, Wang Dayu also came over. He patted Lian Yijian's shoulders twice and said, "Yijian, you have to leave two seats in your car. I'm too lazy to drive. Nana and I will take your car to the hotel later."
As soon as Wang Dayu finished speaking, Liangxi District General Manager Zhao Renhe came over and called him away.
Lian Yijian’s car can only seat five people at most, but Xia Zhongqin still felt reluctant to let Ji Yue take the subway alone.
Adding to that the fact that Wang Dayu and his mistress Nana were two strangers she had little contact with, Xia Zhongqin didn't want to ride in Lian Yijian's car anymore, so she replied, "Mr. Yi...Mr. Lian, it's okay. Your car is almost full. Ji Yue and I will take the subway together. Dinner will be served later tonight, so don't worry about being late."
Xia Zhongqin had already said this, and Lian Yijian naturally understood her considerations and replied "Okay." Yao Xiang, the delivery supervisor of Tongzhou District, walked over. He smiled and said "Congratulations" to Xia Zhongqin, then said to Lian Yijian, "Mr. Lian, I'd like to talk to you about the recent progress of the Zhongtian Interconnect project."
After saying this, Yao Xiang naturally took Lian Yijian's arm and walked out of the meeting room. Before leaving, Lian Yijian said, "Zhong Qin, I'll be there first. See you tonight."
Xia Zhongqin replied with a simple "OK".
The intimate interaction between the two just now was not surprisingly seen by Liu Qingqing, who was still sitting in the first row of the conference room and had not left.
Originally, after the meeting, when she saw Lian Yijian, who was in the same row, getting up to leave, she was about to get up as well. Then, when she saw Lian Yijian's figure stop at where Xia Zhongqin was, she turned around as if her blood was aroused, and stared at the two of them motionlessly.
As soon as Lian Yijian left, Xia Zhongqin and Ji Yue stood up one after another. However, just as Xia Zhongqin took two steps, he was stopped by Liu Qingqing who was walking quickly over.
Liu Qingqing looked very angry, like a shrew scolding on the street.
Xia Zhongqin was not afraid at all. She just stood there silently, looking calmly at Liu Qingqing, who was on the verge of collapse because of anger.
On the contrary, Ji Yue was slapped by Zhang Xiaoshan's ex-wife in the Suzhou subway not long ago. The situation at that time was similar to the current one. That incident left a shadow on her. She wanted to escape at this moment, but her feet were out of control, so she could only desperately hold on to Xia Zhongqin's arm.
At this moment, everyone in the conference room had left one after another, and only the three of them were left. Liu Qingqing had no scruples at all. She raised her hand and was about to slap Xia Zhongqin in the face, but Xia Zhongqin dodged it with his quick eyes and hands.
After hitting nothing, Liu Qingqing angrily cursed, "Xia Zhongqin, you little cutie, why the hell do you want to snatch it from me? Yi Jian can only be mine."
Xia Zhongqin remained silent. Her indifferent look caused Liu Qingqing to lose her mind. She grabbed Xia Zhongqin's hair with both hands, which completely irritated Xia Zhongqin. Xia Zhongqin's life motto was that if someone offends me, I will offend him.
Xia Zhongqin and Liu Qingqing soon started fighting with each other.
Xia Zhongqin is a little thin, and Liu Qingqing is tall and a little fat. The two are not at the same level in terms of strength. Fortunately, Xia Zhongqin is relatively agile and does not suffer too much.
Liu Qingqing's actions also woke Ji Yue up. She forgot her fear and ran out of the meeting room desperately.
About a minute later, Ji Yue called for help.
When Lian Yijian rushed to the meeting room, Liu Qingqing was grabbing the front collar of Xia Zhongqin's skirt and pulling it out with all her might. The reason why she hadn't torn Xia Zhongqin's skirt was because Xia Zhongqin grabbed her hair.
As long as Liu Qingqing dares to use more force, Xia Zhongqin will be even more powerful.
Lian Yijian took a step forward. When Xia Zhongqin saw Lian Yijian coming, he let go of his hand, but Liu Qingqing still had no intention of letting go.
Just when Liu Qingqing was about to tear Xia Zhongqin's skirt, Xia Zhongqin desperately pulled the front neckline back. Lian Yijian hugged Xia Zhongqin tightly and pulled hard.
