One second, Zhang Ling was forced to resign and leave gracefully, and the next second she was almost knocked unconscious by the sudden good news.
Could it be that the old men at the top of the group have lost their minds?
"This is real?"
Because she clearly remembered this order, it would have to wait at least another month before it was announced. She couldn't believe that she was promoted in advance today.
"Mr. Zhang, don't be like this, you have to believe that this world is full of miracles!"
The general manager changed his previous title, which was obviously a bit flattering.
Zhang Ling continued to ask curiously: "The group no longer cares about the post on the company forum?"
"Don't worry about the forum posts. The senior management of the group has found out that it was all framed by villains and ordered the company's network administrator to delete the posts within a time limit."
He seemed to be busier than she was, as if he had forgotten that it was work time. He opened the cabinet not far away, took out a bottle of Louis Roederer from his private collection, and prepared to open champagne to celebrate her.
After seeing this, Zhang Ling slowly realized that all of this was true!
Faced with such good news, Zhang Ling's brain was extremely calm and clear.
"Wait a minute, general manager, please wait a minute!" Her emotions were ups and downs like a roller coaster early in the morning.
With a sound like a girl's sigh, the general manager opened the champagne.
"Why!" He looked at Zhang Ling in confusion, "What are you waiting for? Mr. Zhang, you are not happy about your promotion!"
She, Zhang Ling, is not a character that can be manipulated at will, not even by the senior executives of the group who control her career.
"Why?" she asked with a serious expression. After a pause, she continued, "This is also what I want to ask. Why did you try to persuade me to leave my job early in the morning, and now suddenly said that I would be promoted in advance? You must give me a
A convincing reason. Otherwise, I won’t accept it!”
She felt that if she couldn't hear a reasonable explanation, instead of being fired by her boss inexplicably in the future, it would be better to take advantage of this opportunity and fire her boss in advance.
"Xiao Zhang, why are you doing this? It's not worth it!" He said with a bit of regret.
The general manager originally thought that Zhang Ling would be so happy about her promotion that she would automatically block these bad memories.
"It's worth it! If the group doesn't give me a reasonable explanation, I will naturally feel that the group's senior management is too much fun. You must know that I am here to work, not to be played for no reason. Without an explanation, the group will no longer meet my career plan, so why not
Make your choice early!”
He understood Zhang Ling's insistence, temporarily put the wine and wine glass in his hands on the coffee table, and first pretended to be a patient elder and persuaded:
"Xiao Zhang, you know that there are eight candidates competing for the vice president of the group, and you are honored to stand out."
The general manager privately believed that such a promotion from the top management could only mean that Zhang Ling probably had unusual connections at the top level.
Because the general manager of the group who had been asked to persuade Zhang Ling to resign, I heard that he had been transferred to the newly established branch.
"So I have to accept it with gratitude?"
She was very disgusted with such perfunctory remarks.
The general manager said with some joy: "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Zhang, I did not misjudge you. You have always been a very transparent person. Come, let's raise a glass together..."
When he reached for the champagne next to him, he unexpectedly heard Zhang Ling say: "Impossible!"
"What?" When he was about to touch the wine glass with his other hand, he was startled by Zhang Ling's words, and the glass immediately fell to the ground and broke.
Zhang Ling expressed her position seriously and said: "I just want an explanation today. If there is no convincing and reasonable explanation, I will go to the human resources department and submit my resignation immediately. It is better to quit this job as soon as possible."
The general manager remained calm after seeing Zhang Ling's persistence.
He is not a young boy who just sat in the position of general manager. He will never be easily influenced by his subordinates in making decisions.
He knew in his heart that if he allowed Zhang Ling to leave, he would most likely face the same punishment as the general manager of the group, but he still insisted on not letting down his posture in front of his subordinates easily for the sake of his majesty and image in the company.
With a gambler's mentality, he waved his hand to her pretending to be relaxed and said: "Xiao Zhang, you have to know that the group has seven candidates besides you. This is not a game that you have to do. If you insist on doing this, then
I won’t keep you, just go ahead! I will notify personnel..."
Zhang Ling didn't wait for the general manager to finish speaking, and resolutely turned around and walked towards the door.
With her qualifications and talents, and her rejection of the position of vice president of the group, as long as she walks out of the folding door, countless doors will greet her.
She finally made up her mind to get rid of such an oppressive working environment, and her steps became more and more brisk, as if she had seen a bright career path.
In order to hide his inner uneasiness, the general manager turned his back and glanced at Zhang Ling's retreating back, silently praying in his heart that she would change her mind as soon as possible.
The moment Zhang Ling easily opened the door, the last barrier in the office, his heart felt as if someone had hit him hard with a hundred-jin hammer, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
No, no, if she leaves, his current position will most likely be unsafe.
The general manager finally couldn't stand it any longer, turned around quickly, raised his hand and shouted the word "Zhang" loudly.
He keenly saw the secretary appear at the door.
He was a little lucky that the secretary came at the right time.
The secretary held a document in his hand and placed it in front of Zhang Ling. He said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, just in time. Congratulations. This is the personnel notice from the group's senior management to designate you as the group's vice president. Please sign for it!"
The word "designated" is particularly pleasant to Zhang Ling, but to the general manager, it is like a bomb blast that is deafening.
Because any designated appointment can never be easily replaced.
If the general manager announces the appointment but fails to retain the person due to personal fault, he will be held responsible.
Zhang Ling glanced at the notice, stepped aside, raised her hand to signal to the general manager and said, "I'm sorry, please give the appointment notice to the general manager. Because I have to go to the human resources department in a hurry to submit my resignation. Can you please hold the door?"
?”
The secretary looked at the general manager with a confused look. She really didn't understand what the fuss was about. She urgently needed an answer.
The general manager clearly felt that he was riding a tiger. He must not let Zhang Ling leave the office. He quickly gave the secretary a wink and refused to let the door open easily, and then walked quickly towards the door.
"Zhang Ling, don't be busy leaving yet. Come over and have a cup of tea. How about I convey your intention to the senior management of the group?"
He took the personnel notice with one hand, signaled for the secretary to close the door and leave, grabbed Zhang Ling's wrist, and dragged her to the office rest area.
Because the general manager was an elder, she did not resist and followed him back to his previous seat.
She watched as he deliberately poured out the original tea water, brewed a new pot for Zhang Ling according to his previous tea-making skills, and personally handed the tea cup to her hand.
The general manager then returned to his desk, picked up the landline and pretended to make a call.
Because the senior management of the group had already informed the specific reasons. However, he did not choose to tell Zhang Ling the truth for his own selfish reasons.
Not long!
The general manager put down the phone, sat next to her again, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, I kept you waiting for a long time. I just asked for the specific reason."
Zhang Ling put down the tea cup in her hand and looked at him expectantly: "What?"
The general manager explained that the general manager of the group accepted the benefits from the manager of a branch company and tried to take the opportunity to kick out Zhang Ling, the strongest competitor. However, the branch manager did not admit that he planned the post.
"...Mr. Zhang, you should be satisfied with this explanation!"
Zhang Ling received the personnel appointment notice, looked at it carefully and said: "Okay, I accept the appointment. But..."
"Mr. Zhang, if you have any other requests, feel free to ask. As long as I can do it, I will help you do it."
For the general manager, as long as Zhang Ling accepts the appointment, she can agree to any conditions she proposes as long as they are not excessive, which is considered to be flattering in advance.
"I just took a look at how many days are left until I take office. During this period, you are still my superior. Tomorrow there happens to be a wedding invitation for a classmate, and I want to ask you to grant me leave in advance to attend the appointment."
"That's it! I'm sure." The general manager couldn't believe it. In order to better curry favor, he went on to say, "Mr. Zhang, don't wait until tomorrow. I'm sure you can go home today to prepare for the class reunion. This is the reason for leading
Paid leave.”
"General manager, isn't this good?" Zhang Ling looked a little embarrassed, but she was already happy in her heart.
Rumors about the company were temporarily suppressed. She did not lose her job, but was promoted. The most important thing is that she also earned two days of paid leave.
These are all worth celebrating!
Since she didn't have to go to work today, she happily took the champagne glass handed to her by the general manager and drank it down happily.
Putting down her wine glass, she noticed that the general manager was hesitant to speak, and asked carefully: "General manager, are you going to regret approving my leave?"
"No, no! Our company and Zhihua Technology will have an in-depth cooperation project. The other party will send someone over during lunch today to discuss the general framework."
Zhang Ling said excitedly: "Zhihua Technology! Their smart technology has hundreds of national patents, and I have already had the idea of cooperating with them on a project. This is a good thing! General Manager, what are you worried about?"
"It's just that the person in charge of Zhihua Technology invited you by name to dine in the western restaurant downstairs of our company. He said that this would be conducive to the smooth progress of cooperation. But unfortunately, I just forgot about this and have already approved your leave."
Zhang Ling cursed, what a cunning general manager, who promised to take paid leave but also arranged a purely social work lunch for her.
However, seeing the general manager's embarrassed look, she couldn't bear it. Considering that lunch would be the same wherever she went, she finally agreed to go to the appointment.
She suddenly remembered the lunch invitation from that guy Chen Jian, which seemed to be the Western restaurant downstairs in their company.
"It's not like I agreed to your lunch invitation, but it's a normal work meal." She couldn't help but smile to herself.
But in her mind, she began to fantasize about what Chen Jian would say to her about Li Xiang after meeting her?
Yan Zhou!
As promised, she came to the western restaurant downstairs of the company, followed the table number given by the general manager, and came to a seat by the window.
Looking at the man's back, he is tall and elegant, wearing a well-dressed burgundy plain custom-made suit, and he feels that his whole person has an innate noble and extraordinary aura.
When she stood in front of him, the exclusive embroidered words on her clothes were the first to come into view. After careful identification, he suddenly raised his head to look at the man's face.
She raised her finger and pointed at the man in surprise: "Chen Jian, why are you sitting here?"
Her first impression was that this guy was blind and sitting in the wrong position.
"I think it's necessary to introduce myself again." Chen Jian stood up in a very gentlemanly manner, reached out politely to grab her hand and shook it gently: "Hello, I am Chen Jian, the person in charge of Zhihua Technology."
