A few days ago, Mi Qingsong mentioned that he would arrange for Wang Tianxiao to have dinner with the purchasing manager of the Provincial Chinese Medicine Group to discuss the upcoming supply and transportation arrangements.
After all, it's tens of thousands of kilograms, or seventy or eighty tons of goods, and they are Chinese herbal medicines that are very easy to mold or expire. If something goes wrong along the way, no one can afford the losses.
To show his sincerity, Wang Tianxiao specially booked a private room at the Wenyuan Hotel.
And Zhang Wenyuan was made to accompany them.
The purchasing manager was a middle-aged woman in her forties surnamed Meng. She had a very elegant demeanor and looked like someone who had been in a high position for a long time and had never experienced hardship.
She was clearly a little surprised to see that Wang Tianxiao was actually a young man in his twenties.
After confirming it, I couldn't help but sigh, "The younger generation is truly formidable, surpassing the older generation."
Wang Tianxiao knew that the other party was not genuinely praising him, but rather had doubts about his abilities.
A person's temperament cannot be faked.
No matter how capable Wang Tianxiao is in his life, he still doesn't have the aura of a successful person, while his classmates Mi Qingsong and Zhang Wenyuan are different.
One is a highly respected senior expert.
He was dressed in a suit and tie, clearly born into a privileged family and someone who had long been immersed in a life of wealth.
They are all more sophisticated than Wang Tianxiao.
So when Manager Meng was praising Wang Tianxiao, his gaze turned to Old Mi, probably asking: Are you sure this is the person we want to cooperate with?
Mi Qingsong immediately understood what Manager Meng meant.
He smiled faintly: "Xiao Meng, you really are a force to be reckoned with. Think back to when General Manager Huang and I first started working, you were just a student who had just joined the group as an intern. Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have become a powerful general who can help General Manager Huang expand his territory everywhere."
"Mr. Mi, I was just talking about Xiao Wang. Why did you bring me into this? You've revealed all my secrets."
When Manager Meng heard what Mr. Mi said, his attitude became much more enthusiastic.
She knew that Mr. Mi was supporting this young man.
She expressed a slight lack of confidence in young people, which immediately displeased Mr. Mi, who then pulled Mr. Huang aside.
Yes, although she is the group's purchasing manager, Mr. Huang is the group's executive vice president. The difference between the two is not as vast as heaven and earth, but at least several levels.
When she first joined the group, she was supposed to be eliminated because her abilities were not outstanding. Fortunately, she was saved by General Manager Huang and Mi Qingsong, who was working at the Chinese medicine group at the time.
Therefore, both publicly and privately, Mr. Mi is someone she should value.
This time, it's clear that Mr. Mi wants to support this young man, even going so far as to use Mr. Huang's connections. Mr. Huang even sent me personally to discuss this matter, which shows how much importance he attaches to it.
Her slight disdain, which she had only shown out of habit due to her status, was immediately noticed.
Give her a silent retort.
The meaning is very simple: I have informed your General Manager Huang about this matter. Don't you know why General Manager Huang sent you here?
Why are you trying to act all high and mighty in front of me, Old Man Mi?
Having worked in state-owned enterprises for a long time, Manager Meng was no ordinary person who could rise to the position of purchasing manager. In just a moment, she realized that her attitude just now was a bit inconsiderate and hurriedly made amends, which can be considered as a belated attempt to mend the fence.
Seeing that Manager Meng was quite sensible, Old Mi's smile became a little more hearty.
"Let's order something to eat. Xiao Meng has come all this way, so I'll pay for today's meal. Xiao Zhang, right..."
"Yes, yes, my surname is Zhang."
Zhang Wenyuan responded politely with a smile.
"Well, Xiao Zhang, isn't this your hotel? You'll be in charge of recommending dishes. Don't worry about the money; this old man still has some savings."
"Oh, how could I let you spend so much money? Mr. Mi, Manager Meng is here to support the development of our hometown. This meal should be on my behalf."
Wang Tianxiao hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
He understood that what Mr. Mi said earlier was not only to stop Manager Meng from speaking in such a condescending manner, but more importantly, he also made Manager Meng realize that, just as General Manager Huang and Mr. Mi were willing to give Manager Meng a chance, Mr. Mi valued Wang Tianxiao highly, and he was paving the way for this opportunity for Wang Tianxiao.
If Manager Meng still doesn't get it after this explanation, then she won't be in this position.
The Chinese medicine group is a state-owned enterprise. Manager Meng's position is at least at the level of a section chief or deputy director. Even if he is not among thousands of people, he must have stood out from the crowd. How could he not have this kind of insight?
She knows a lot.
In fact, many things are like this.
As long as it doesn't break the law or harm anyone's interests, personal relationships can be very effective.
Anyway, the Chinese medicine group needs to purchase a lot of herbs. As long as the price is right and the quality of the herbs is up to standard, what difference does it make whose herbs they purchase?
I don't know you, so I have to track the quality of your herbs, and I also have little control over how you will develop in the future.
However, if it's an acquaintance, someone you know well, or a connection recommended by an industry expert, the risk will be much lower.
Why not complete your work tasks while maintaining good interpersonal relationships?
Many people feel frustrated in business or at work because they don't want to maintain interpersonal relationships and look down on anyone who does.
Such a person lacks any basic principles.
In fact, the purpose of relationships based on interests is not the relationship itself, but the interests.
They seem to be maintaining a relationship, but it's really just about maintaining their own interests.
