Chapter 72
Zhang Xiaoshan didn't stay for long. He chatted with Xia Kaiqun for a while and then returned to his workstation.
At 6:30 in the evening, Lian Yi Jian and Xia Cheng had not yet come out of Wang Dayu's office.
Ten minutes later, Song Xiaojuan, director of Sucheng Sales Department, came to the delivery department in a hurry. She glanced around and then walked quickly to Xia Zhongqin's workstation.
"Xia Zhongqin, where are your CEO and the new delivery manager from Sucheng District? Will the tonight inventory meeting still be held?"
Song Xiaojuan's tone was still aggressive as usual.
Xia Zhongqin knew exactly who Song Xiaojuan was. She had been working at Beijing Smart Internet Company for over a year. Without looking up, she only raised her eyelids slightly and replied, "Boss Wang has called them to his office."
As soon as Xia Zhongqin finished speaking, Song Xiaojuan immediately turned around and left the delivery department.
Half an hour had passed since the project inventory was due, and the project manager in the delivery department was already getting impatient.
Ye Bin ran to Xia Zhongqin's workstation and asked if they still needed to conduct a project inventory in the evening.
Five minutes before Ye Bin arrived, Xia Zhongqin had sent a WeChat message to Lian Yijian, asking if they had done an inventory tonight. However, she had not received a reply from Lian Yijian until Ye Bin arrived.
Before Xia Zhongqin could utter the word "I don't know" , Liu Jijun and Hua Yeqing also came over.
"Zhongqin, my child has a cold. I just sent a WeChat message to Mr. Lian, but he didn't reply. Why don't you ask Mr. Lian if he will take stock of the child tonight? If not, I will go back first." The speaker was Liu Jijun, who was looking at Xia Zhongqin anxiously.
As Liu Jijun finished speaking, Xia Kaiqun, who had been busy writing code since chatting with Zhang Xiaoshan, stopped what he was doing and said, "Teacher Liu, if you have something to do, please go back first. Mr. Lian probably didn't see your WeChat message. I don't think the project review will be held tonight."
As Xia Kaiqun uttered the last word "了", Xia Zhongqin and Liu Jijun received a new message on WeChat one after another, followed by a new notification in the entire Sucheng District Delivery Department group.
The new WeChat messages of Xia Zhongqin, Xia Kaiqun and Liu Jijun were sent by Lian Yijian, and the new message of the Sucheng District Delivery Department group was sent by Xia Cheng. The four messages all had the same meaning: the Sucheng District Delivery Department will not take inventory tonight.
Lian Yijian replied to Xia Zhongqin’s WeChat message: Zhongqin, there will be no inventory tonight. It looks like it will not be finished until twelve o’clock. You and Teacher Xia should go back first.
Xia Kaiqun received a WeChat message from Lian Yijian: Uncle Xia, please help me send Zhong Qin back first, it’s almost twelve o’clock here.
Liu Jijun received a reply from Lian Yijian on WeChat: No more inventory, okay, go back early.
The message Xia Cheng sent to the Sucheng District Delivery Department group was met with dead silence, with no one replying. This was in stark contrast to the message Lian Yijian sent to the group, which received a huge response.
Probably out of anger, ten minutes later, all the people in the Sucheng Delivery Department had left the company. Xia Cheng sent another message in the Sucheng Delivery Group: Anyone who received the above message, please reply with "received", @夏钟沁, and those who didn't reply with "received" tomorrow, please compile a list and send it to me.
Xia Zhongqin, who had already taken an online taxi with Xia Kaiqun, was so angry when she saw the message in the Sucheng delivery group that she laughed. She couldn't help but complain to Xia Kaiqun, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, "Teacher Xia, look at the message in the Sucheng District delivery group. This Xia Cheng is really sick."
Because Xia Kaiqun is a technical expert in Southern Jiangsu District and has always supported key projects in Sucheng District, when the Sucheng District Delivery Department Group was first established, Lian Yijian pulled Xia Kaiqun into the Sucheng District Delivery Department Group.
Xia Cheng posted a message from @Xia Zhongqin to the Sucheng District Delivery Department group. Xia Kaiqun, who was chatting with Zhao Panpan, a female customer service intern from Liangxi District, naturally saw it. He replied, "Don't pay any attention to this mad dog, Zhong Qin. One bad apple spoils the whole barrel. I'm afraid the reputation of the Southern Jiangsu District Delivery Iron Army will be lost."
Xia Kaiqun's tone was very cold.
Ever since becoming acquainted with Xia Kaiqun through Lian Yijian, this was the first time Xia Zhongqin had heard such cold words from him. Furthermore, Xia Cheng had spoken harshly to him today on the Sucheng Metro project. Xia Zhongqin wondered if Xia Kaiqun, a key technical member of the Sucheng Passenger Car Development Group, would still be on the project tomorrow. So, he asked, "Teacher Xia, are you still going to the Sucheng Metro project team tomorrow?"
"Didn't that mad dog already threaten me during the day? Why would I go? I'm going back to Liangxi tomorrow. There's a complicated passenger project there that needs my urgent attention. I previously supported the Sucheng subway project because of Yi Jian. Since that mad dog is so capable, let him deliver it himself. I think you and Yi Jian don't need to go anymore, Zhong Qin."
After hearing what Xia Kaiqun said, Xia Zhongqin's heart sank. As the middle platform, the Suzhou Metro Project needs to be integrated with more than 20 external systems currently used by Suzhou Metro Group. Lian Yijian has already evaluated the workload of this part and put forward a business solution.
Xia Zhongqin had seen the integrated business solution developed by Lian Yijian in the Suzhou Metro Project File. He had done it very meticulously, with the workload estimated at thirty man-days. The technical difficulty coefficient was very high, and it would have been impossible to complete it without Xia Kaiqun, the customer development technology expert.
Although Zhang Xiaoshan's technical ability is comparable to Xia Kaiqun's, he has never contributed anything to the Sucheng Metro project. The few times he came here, he just played a supporting role. Now that he has been appointed by Lian Yijian as the project manager of Wujiang Rural Commercial Bank, he has even more reason not to come to support the Sucheng Metro project.
After more than a month on the Suzhou Metro project, Xia Zhongqin is now relatively clear about the situation of the project. The project was originally being pushed forward step by step according to the project implementation plan formulated by Lian Yijian. Even if the project encountered risks or changes in requirements, Lian Yijian always had solutions to deal with it while ensuring that the general direction remained unchanged.
But with the appearance of Xia Cheng, this troublemaker, could he be considered a risk to the Sucheng Metro project? If so, it would definitely be a storm for the Sucheng Metro project, which was on the verge of success. If Lian Yijian also left the Sucheng Metro project, it would be a devastating blow to the project.
Xia Zhongqin was so absorbed in her thoughts that Xia Kaiqun called her "Sister Zhongqin" three times. It was only when he called her the third time that she realized that they had already arrived downstairs of her house.
The two got out of the car, and Xia Kaiqun took out a cigarette from his shirt pocket. Before smoking, he asked, "Ms. Zhong Qin, can I have a cigarette?"
"I've already taken it out, go ahead and smoke it." Xia Zhongqin replied with a smile.
Xia Kaiqun then lit up the cigarette in his hand. After taking two deep puffs, he said, "In all my decades of work, this is the first time I've seen a mad dog like Xia Cheng. Don't worry, sister Zhong Qin, he and your brother Yi Jian are not even on the same level. He's not even worthy of carrying Yi Jian's shoes. We just need to wait and see how long this mad dog can toss around. By then, I'll have Old Wang crying and begging Yi Jian to come out to save the day."
"Teacher Xia, it's easy to avoid an open attack but hard to guard against a hidden one. I'm afraid that someone as arrogant as him will do something bad to Brother Yi Jian behind his back. Didn't Tencent News previously reveal that there were two executives of a technology company, one of whom was jealous of the other's outstanding performance, Yong Linxiu, and then poisoned the water he drank." Xia Zhongqin expressed her concerns.
After all, they all work in the IT circle. Xia Kaiqun not only knew about the sensational news that Xia Zhongqin told him, but he had also worked with the poisoned executive in the company for two years. They were not in the same department and had only met each other. Then, a young life was gone without a trace. Xia Kaiqun sighed for a long time in front of Lian Yimian at that time.
Xia Zhongqin's words also alerted Xia Kaiqun. He stubbed out the cigarette butt in his hand and threw it into the trash can beside him. He took a deep breath and said, "Sister Zhongqin, what you just said reminded me. I will tell Yi Jian when I get home tonight and ask him to be on guard to prevent any accidents from happening."
Xia Zhongqin checked the time on her phone. It was already nine o'clock, not too late but not too early either. It wasn't too far to take a taxi from Modern Garden, where she lived, to Yonglin New Village. Since Lian Yijian wasn't around at the moment, it wouldn't be convenient to ask Xia Kaiqun to come sit down. "Teacher Xia, thank you for taking me back. I'll..."
Before Xia Zhongqin could finish her words, a video call came in on her WeChat.
She thought it was Lian Yijian calling, so when she picked up the phone to answer it, she saw it was Xia Cheng calling.
At this moment, Xia Zhongqin wanted to throw her cell phone to the ground. How could there be such a disgusting person like a fly?
Seeing this, Xia Kaiqun on the side immediately started swearing: "Calling him a mad dog is really giving him a thumbs up. He's a complete piece of stinky shit. Miss Zhong Qin, don't pay any attention to him."
The WeChat video call lasted for half a minute without anyone answering. The other party was obviously getting impatient and hung up.
The next second, Xia Zhongqin was directly pulled into a group called Sucheng PMO.
This Sucheng PMO group was just created by Xia Chenggang, and there are four people in it: Xia Zhongqin, Lian Yijian, Xia Cheng, and Liu Qingqing.
Then Xia Cheng sent a new message in the Sucheng PMO group: @连易见@刘青青@夏钟沁, from now on, all important matters of the Sucheng Delivery Department will be communicated in this group and everyone will be aware of them.
Soon, the word "received" from Liu Qingqing appeared in the group, but only she and Lian Yijian did not respond.
The moment Xia Zhongqin saw the new Sucheng PMO group and the group message, he blurted out "psycho."
Seeing that Xia Zhongqin was a little agitated, Xia Kaiqun hurriedly asked, "Did that piece of stinky shit send a WeChat message to you, Zhongqin, alone again?"
Xia Zhongqin handed the phone directly to Xia Kaiqun. He took a look at the Sucheng PMO group and the group messages, and started typing frantically again.
