Chapter 408: No One Is Simple in the Workplace
It's not that I'm thinking about love.
When people are tipsy, their thinking is particularly active.
Many fragments of memory emerged in his mind, and he tried to piece them together, but due to the lack of key information, the memory images were broken again and again.
This feeling is torturous.
Just like tonight, even though he saw Zhang Yiming, he was not able to recognize him at first sight.
If I hadn't happened to know Zhou Shaowu, I would have missed this opportunity.
It seems that in the future I will not only have to read newspapers, but also collect information resources from portal websites.
In addition, with the rise of mobile Internet, numerous opportunities have surrounded this industry in the past four or five years, and it cannot be overemphasized.
After returning to the room, he opened another bottle of red wine. Because his mind was free, he drank too much without realizing it.
I didn’t even take a shower and fell asleep in a daze…
Song Wan didn't come to disturb him the next day, probably because she was busy contacting potential investors.
Luo Yang slept until after nine o'clock.
I was woken up by the ringing of my cell phone.
"Chairman, I've asked the crew of Kintaro's Happy Life, but the clothing sponsor has not yet been decided..."
Wen Binghe brought good news: "When would it be convenient for you to meet with Director Yu to have a chat?"
"I'm not going."
Luo Yang said: "Let the boss of the clothing company go over and talk in person. After all, one has the demand and the other is professional, so there is no need to go around in circles... I'll make a call first and tell you when the time is confirmed."
He said a few words and hung up the phone.
Immediately, he started contacting Shang Guozheng.
After explaining this matter and confirming that he would come to the capital tonight, Wen Binghe made an appointment with the director of the crew to meet and talk tomorrow morning.
Luo Yang has to finalize an investment of 30 yuan in Zhang Yiming's Jiujiufang today, and he has to give in on everything else.
After washing up, he changed into formal clothes, called Zhang Yiming, and brought the investment to his doorstep.
To be honest, Zhang Yiming didn't expect Luo Yang to call him so soon.
He even thought that last night was just someone's talk.
Because entrepreneurs know best the status of their projects.
Just as Shen Nanpeng said yesterday, the timing of the Jiujiufang company he founded to intervene in this track was a little late.
And there is no combination of online and offline.
Without additional large amounts of capital investment, it would be difficult to achieve the expected goals in the early stages of a company's establishment.
The 30 yuan that Luo Yang promised...
It is very likely that it will only be enough to serve as Jiujiufang’s severance pay.
Zhang Yiming thought Luo Yang wanted to inspect the company, but he didn't expect that he didn't even enter the company's door.
The two met in a coffee shop near the company. After a few words of chatting, Luo Yang reaffirmed his intention to invest.
They dared to sign the contract without even bringing a legal representative.
"Mr. Luo..."
Zhang Yiming has finally experienced what carelessness means.
"Don't be surprised, Mr. Zhang. This is just my personality."
Luo Yang noticed Zhang Yiming's surprise and emphasized again: "For any such investment, I never interfere with the company's subsequent operations and management activities, and when resources are needed, I will do my best to meet their needs..."
“Is the investment in Love Is Not Blind also so impulsive?”
Zhang Yiming couldn't say that Luo Yang was careless, so he could only describe him with more neutral words.
“It’s just a feeling from my own perspective.”
Luo Yang is very good at fooling people.
He explained with a smile: "I am also an entrepreneur and have started several projects. Before starting a business, I had a roughly complete plan in my mind for the development of the entire project in the future... Letting others give instructions is not called entrepreneurship, but professional management."
Zhang Yiming was stunned for a moment.
Is it because you say so many words that you are right?
If you think about it carefully, you can taste its flavor.
I naturally have ideas for my entrepreneurial projects. If you think they are not feasible, then don't invest. If you think the idea is good but the method is not right, then you can do it yourself.
Why do you have to give me money and then teach me how to do it?
That's just like taking off your pants to fart, what a waste of time!
As for entrepreneurship passing the initial stage and entering the mature stage, many team members will go their separate ways due to different concepts.
It is often the subordinates who leave, rather than the leaders and core figures.
When I raise funds, I only want funds and resources, not to find a mother-in-law to give me orders.
After resonating with this point, Zhang Yiming felt that he and Luo Yang had a lot of common topics.
Both of them are loners who "like to start a business", especially Zhang Yiming, who has quite unique insights into the emerging mobile Internet industry.
Moreover, because of his previous failed entrepreneurial experiences, he was particularly fond of reflecting on his previous behaviors.
Luo Yang is a kaleidoscope.
No matter what you say, he can always agree with you.
And he can also hit the point.
It makes people feel that he understands this business.
In fact, Luo Yang only has that much knowledge in his head. If he is really asked to set up an e-commerce platform, he will definitely be exposed.
But it was this kind of listening more and talking less, occasionally saying one or two things to hit the nail on the head, or even expressing a refreshing point of view, that made Zhang Yiming regard him as a close friend.
"I think with the continuous advancement of mobile Internet technology and the increasing popularity of smartphones, there is definitely room for short videos."
When he was excited, Zhang Yiming revealed his true thoughts.
He has realized the failure of Jiujiufang and started planning for his next business venture.
"This is a good choice."
Kaleidoscope is misleading again: "Young people today are under increasing pressure, and their own time is becoming shorter and shorter. Whoever can occupy their fragmented time will be the winner."
The word "fragmented time" shocked Zhang Yiming. He was in a trance for a while, and then an excited expression appeared on his face.
"Yes, yes, that's what it means!"
Zhang Yiming kept muttering: "Short videos occupy fragmented time..."
tsk...
Are the butterfly's wings flapping a little too big?
Luo Yang touched his chin and smacked his lips.
Time always passes quickly when we have a pleasant chat.
"Mr. Zhang, I didn't expect that we would get along so well. Next time if I have the chance to come to Shanghai, let's have some drinks and have a long chat all night long!"
Before they parted, Luo Yang held Zhang Yiming's hand and said, "I prefer to work on real projects, but that doesn't stop me from being optimistic about the mobile Internet industry. If you have any good projects and are short of money, you can contact me at any time!"
"A word is settled!"
Zhang Yiming shook his hand back vigorously: "I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation."
Both were satisfied with the meeting.
After walking out of the coffee shop, Luo Yang was planning to take a taxi back to the hotel.
Calculating the time, Shang Guozheng will arrive around three in the afternoon. He will ask Wen Binghe to meet him, and the follow-up matters can be handed over to him.
He plans to visit Capital Normal University tomorrow.
Before I could wave down the car, my cell phone rang.
It was a call from the group’s HR department.
Once the gender restrictions on assistants are relaxed, it will be easier to choose a position, whether it is an assistant or a secretary.
Just wait for Luo Yang to come back for the interview.
tsk...
He was destined to have no chance to visit the capital and was not allowed to stay there for even a single day.
I returned to Shanghai on Wednesday.
The group’s headquarters was still under renovation, so Luo Yang chose Luo Sheng Tang as the interview location.
There were two candidates for the male assistant, one was 27 years old and the other was 28 years old.
The one-year-younger one is called Zhao Xian, from Zhejiang Province, and graduated from Zhejiang University School of Business Administration with a master’s degree.
I previously worked for a Fortune 500 company, but left due to some personal reasons.
The one who is one year older is called Yu Haiping. He is from Hunan Province, has an average education, and is an undergraduate who graduated from Hunan Normal University.
But his resume surprised Luo Yang greatly.
He actually served as a deputy secretary in a county-level city in Hunan Province, and also served as deputy director of the Municipal Government Office.
As long as nothing goes wrong with this position, there would be no problem in transferring it to a certain town as a deputy.
If you have strong connections, you can be promoted to a full-time position in two years, and you can't escape the promotion to a section level.
"I'm curious about why you jumped out of your original environment."
When Luo Yang was interviewing Yu Haiping, he couldn't help but ask: "After all, I'm hiring an assistant..."
Assistant to the chairman, the position is already considered middle-senior level in the group.
This is still secondary. The key is that the position attribute is very important. We can't just hire someone with problems, right?
Yu Haiping smiled bitterly: "I accompanied the leader on an inspection trip and he fell on the wine table..."
This is definitely not because of being drunk.
Damn...
The reason is ridiculous, but it is real.
Not only Yu Haiping was unlucky, the local leader who entertained them also had to take responsibility.
It is not certain that it will be successful, but it is 100% certain that it will be a cold office.
After enduring for more than half a year, Yu Haiping decided to break out and leave Hunan Province and come directly to Shanghai to find a job.
Luo Yang did not make up his mind on the spot.
From the perspective of a business assistant alone, Zhao Xian is definitely the right person, after all, he has experience working in management positions in Fortune 500 companies.
But considering other perspectives, Yu Haiping is undoubtedly more suitable for the position of assistant than Zhao Xian.
Don't underestimate the deputy director of a county-level city government office.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is good at dealing with people.
The ability to handle affairs should not be underestimated.
Luo Yang needs to think again about choosing between the two people.
So I continued with the interview and changed my mind first.
Generally speaking, Luo Yang's assistant will concurrently serve as the director of the board's office or other positions.
When recruiting secretaries, we are looking for administrative secretaries and confidential secretaries, one of whom may even serve as deputy director of the board office.
Since Luo Yang changed his requirements, the people below him naturally tried to please him, which turned out to be a bit of an overreaction.
Look at the resume that was handed to Luo Yang in advance, and even the artistic photos were brought in...
This is a big company interviewing a secretary, not a film crew interviewing an actress!
Luo Yang watched with great interest.
There are no beauty cameras these days, and the real person is likely to look better than the photo.
The candidates who came in for the interview one by one were all very charming and had their own unique manners.
As a result, the human resources manager was called into Luo Yang’s office and scolded.
He wanted to choose a pretty one, but he had no intention of turning his board of directors into a club.
Forget about the tea, but what about the goblin?
After understanding Luo Yang's spirit, the group's human resources director Huo Lanlan took out the second stack of information a few minutes later.
ID photo, look straight, pretty and not weird.
None of the veterans in the workplace are simple!
What's the point of having one more plan?
It’s just the beginning of the month, and I guess you haven’t given your monthly tickets to others yet?
