Chapter 280 A bright future

Chapter 280 A bright future

Nebula International Group, headquarters building.

Wenruan stood downstairs and looked up.

The glass curtain wall sparkles in the sun, like a huge mirror, reflecting the prosperity and vitality of the city.

The building's exterior design is simple yet elegant, using a clever combination of streamlined and geometric shapes.

The building was still as magnificent as ever, seemingly unchanged from when I left.

Walk into the main entrance of the building.

Spacious and bright space, soaring ceilings, huge art sculptures, modern and simple decoration...

On one side of the hall, a huge electronic display screen displays the latest developments, market trends and corporate culture of the group company in real time...

The extremely familiar scene before her instantly pulled her thoughts back to eight years ago.

At that time, she had just graduated and stepped into here with great expectations, fantasizing about an extraordinary future.

Time flies, and she returns to the starting point again. Suddenly, she feels an unknown throbbing in her heart, which makes her feel a little overwhelmed.

Tears gradually accumulated in my eyes.

Wenruan exhaled and calmed herself down quickly.

After registering at the front desk, I took the high-speed elevator directly to the 11th floor.

This is also the core office space of the entire media operations division.

This time she returned to the group, she submitted her resume to Ji Qiuyu, the vice president of media operations, through Zhao Mingying.

So the interview was also arranged here.

Today I just chatted with the human resources department to communicate my needs.

If there is no problem, Ji Qiuyu will discuss salary and position with her in person later.

I dialed the HR number and waited for a while, then a familiar-looking figure walked out.

About three years ago, she met the other person in the group.

"Good afternoon, Wenruan!" HR said with a smile: "I'll take you to the meeting room!"

"Thank you." Wenruan tightened the shoulder strap of her bag and followed her into the office area.

The familiar decoration environment made her feel a little uneasy.

After all, leaving at that time was not decent.

"Wenruan!?" A surprised voice sounded, "How come you..."

Wen Ruan turned her head and saw a familiar old colleague, Li Mingshuai.

Immediately afterwards, there were shouts of surprise.

"It's her!" "Who? She's so beautiful!"

"Wenruan from the Marketing and Promotion Division! Um, I forgot, you joined late and haven't met her!"

"This is a famous beauty in our company!"

"Wow, I haven't seen you for 3 years. You are even more charming now!"

Although she has been away from the company for more than three years, she has worked here for five years after all. She has outstanding looks, an optimistic and cheerful personality, and excellent abilities, and many colleagues know her.

She pinched the shoulder strap of the bag softly with a faint smile on her face.

As she walked past, she could vaguely hear more intense discussions behind her.

Even she heard the name "Zhang Zihang".

This former director of digital marketing did not remain silent after that incident.

After all, he has a father who is a group director, and he has work experience in overseas Fortune 500 companies.

He has now been promoted to general manager of the International Cooperation Department.

Responsible for the cooperation and exchanges between the company and foreign art institutions and media organizations, and promoting the development of international cultural projects.

Add to that his calm and handsome looks, age of 35, and strong background.

He can be said to be one of the recognized successors of the group and is very popular among employees.

These were all told to her by Sun Simin.

At the beginning, this best friend also advised her to stay.

Given Zhang Zihang's background and character, he will definitely compensate her in the future.

However, Wen Ruan, who was close to collapse at the time, obviously had no intention of doing so and just wanted to escape the city immediately.

"Bang!" The door of the conference room was closed.

Wenruan took out her resume from her bag and put it on the table.

HR took a look, shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, just tell me your requirements next. Our CEO Ji just called me and said that she has taken a fancy to you and it has to be you!"

Hearing this, Wenruan's eyes trembled, and she asked incredulously: "What do you mean? No need for an interview?"

Although she was very confident in herself, she had never thought about joining the company directly without an interview.

The recruitment process of Nebula International Group is very cumbersome and formal.

Even if it is an internal referral, you still have to go through a full 3-round interview.

If it involves the recruitment of branch management, even President Li Mohai needs to review it.

"That's what I mean." HR opened the blue folder in his hand and continued, "Boss Ji is still in a meeting upstairs. He said that the Yancheng branch has a major decision to make. Our president and directors are all here, so they can't come over for the time being.

Mr. Ji means to place your personnel relations in the imperial capital, and your salary and benefits will be completely in line with this.

Of course, the office is definitely located in Yancheng.

In this way, you will have an additional travel allowance and reimbursement amount every month..."

HR flipped through the documents in her hand and repeated in a low voice what Ji Qiuyu had arranged for her.

The more Wenruan listened, the more frightened she became.

I never thought that I was so important in the eyes of this vice president of the group.

After the HR finished the introduction, Wenruan asked about his job content and the business of the branch.

The HR gave a few simple answers, and finally added: "The specific position has not been determined yet. After the Yancheng branch is settled, President Ji will communicate with you in person. Everything will be based on your wishes."

Hearing this, Wen Ruan's heart skipped a beat and she realized something was wrong.

If Ji Qiuyu admired himself because of his past work performance and abilities, he would definitely not go to this extent. This is a bit too much.

There is probably only one possibility, someone is helping me!

Zhao Mingying is just an ordinary small leader. At most, he knows Mr. Ji and can talk to him.

As for how much face it is, it’s not that big of a deal.

The most likely person is... Zhang Zihang.

With a father who is a director, even Ji Qiuyu must give him face.

Among the people I know, he seems to be the only one who can do it.

Thinking of what he had said before, Wenruan stood up and said with a tense expression: "Well, I'll think about it and I'll talk to President Ji later."

She didn't want to owe Zhang Zihang a favor, especially such a big one.

She had to talk to Ji Qiuyu in person. Even if she went to a branch company to be a planning team leader, it would make her feel better than this.

"This..." HR said with some difficulty: "Why don't you stay a little longer? I'm not sure when President Ji will finish the meeting." Wen Ruan raised her wrist to check the time. "Okay, I'll stay here until 5 o'clock. If it doesn't work, I'll come back next week to avoid disturbing President Ji's rest."

Sun Simin is getting married tomorrow.

Tonight, all the classmates who are away from home will come over.

Sun Simin arranged for everyone to stay at the Orange Hotel near Yizhuang Bridge.

Among them were other people from their dormitory, and they planned to have dinner together in the evening.

"Okay, then I'll go to the 15th floor first." HR quickly stood up and walked out quickly.

Looking at the conference room door closing again, Wenruan let out a long sigh.

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind and his eyes were complicated.

After a while.

"Dong dong dong" knocked on the door.

"Please come in." Wen Ruan quickly calmed down and stood up.

I originally thought it was HR or Ji Qiuyu coming, but I didn’t expect that the person who came in was an “old friend”.

"Hello Sister Ruanruan, long time no see!" Li Jiaxuan had a sweet smile on her face and spoke very nicely.

The familiar voice and name made Wenruan's eyes flicker slightly, "Long time no see, Jiaxuan."

Li Jiaxuan is a colleague who joined the company a year later than her, and she met her after she was transferred to the digital marketing department.

In Wenruan's initial impression, the other party was a pretty girl.

He is from the south, quiet, tall and thin, with a fresh and elegant appearance, and seems simple and kind.

At work, she speaks softly, is quiet and reserved, and often looks weak and dependent.

Perhaps because of this personality, she is particularly popular among boys.

Moreover, she also had a very good relationship with Zhang Zihang, the digital marketing director at the time.

The two are in the same social media operations team, each responsible for a certain area of ​​media.

Wen Ruan has always had a good impression of her, and the two of them used to be good friends.

Until that incident happened, she was supposed to be promoted to "Social Media Operations Manager" but was replaced by Li Jiaxuan.

It is said that after she resigned from the company.

Li Jiaxuan and Zhang Zihang are still very close, and she has gradually become friends with several colleagues in the department who had previous violent conflicts with her.

He is doing very well in the department.

Wen Ruan is not a fool, there are various signs indicating that.

This "little white flower" colleague is highly suspicious.

However, there was no evidence after all, so she had no choice but to deliberately cut off contact with the other party.

And Li Jiaxuan also tacitly never contacted her actively.

"I had dinner with President Zihang a few days ago, and he mentioned that you were coming back." Li Jiaxuan had a harmless smile on her face. "To be honest, I'm really happy for Sister Ruanruan. Welcome back to our Xingyun International family."

After saying that, she opened her arms and hugged Wenruan very gently.

"Thank you Jiaxuan."

The two exchanged a few simple greetings and reminisced about the past, and the atmosphere seemed to have returned to the past.

Li Jiaxuan stuck out her tongue playfully and said with a smile, "Sister Ruanruan, today is Friday. Zihang and I have an appointment to eat seafood tonight. Do you want to join us?"

Hearing her meaningful words, Wenruan said calmly: "I won't bother you anymore, and I'm not familiar with Mr. Zhang now."

“Oh, okay then.” Li Jiaxuan sighed with some regret, and said, “Sister Ruanruan, President Zihang told me before that he wanted you to return to the headquarters to work.

But after all, you had some...not-so-good memories before, so I think it's good for you to stay in the Yancheng branch.

This will prevent any more rumors from spreading, right?
Besides, he was just promoted to the general manager of the International Cooperation Department not long ago, and many people are watching him now.”

Hearing her teasing words, Wenruan's eyes turned sharp.

He took a half step forward, looked down at the little white flower calmly, and said in a slightly cold tone: "Jiaxuan, you don't have to scare me with these things. What happens to Zhang Zihang has nothing to do with me. I take care of my own affairs. You should save yourself the trouble and worry more about your own affairs when you have time."

"Ah!" Li Jiaxuan said with a wronged and pitiful face: "Sister Ruanruan, did you misunderstand me? We have such a good relationship. I really do this for your own good. I just don't want you to be wronged."

"That was in the past!" Wenruan patted her shoulder, "Jiaxuan, it's better to be sincere. You always pretend like this, and it makes me want to curse you, do you know that?"

Li Jiaxuan's eyes flickered, and her somewhat flat chest rose and fell violently. "Wenruan, I treated you as a friend, but I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. You came here this time just to take advantage of Mr. Zihang's relationship..."

Before she finished speaking, Wenruan interrupted with a cold expression, "You brain-dead green tea bitch! I get annoyed just by seeing you! Don't worry, I don't like Zhang Zihang, and I don't want to compete with you for him."

Then, Wen Ruan picked up her bag, pushed away Li Jiaxuan who was blocking the door, and strode out.

Li Jiaxuan cursed a few words under her breath, then a triumphant smile appeared on her face.

You look down on Zhang Zihang? Do you believe this?

Isn't it just that you can't make it out there and can't find a good job, so you want to come back?
Anyway, I will never allow you to go back to the Digital Marketing Department, let alone steal my man again!

I will attend Sun Simin’s wedding tomorrow with Zhang Zihang, and also let your former colleagues in the department get to know you again.

Let’s see how bold you are. Do you dare to come back to our digital marketing department?
After Wen Ruan resigned, she pursued Zhang Zihang for a long time. The two had several drunken impulses and their relationship was ambiguous and complicated.

She also wanted to use her relationship with Zhang Zihang to be promoted to director of the digital marketing department and officially become a middle-level manager in the company.

Naturally, she would not allow Wen Ruan to ruin her plan.

After walking out of the conference room door, Li Jiaxuan chatted with several colleagues opposite her as if nothing had happened.

Just about to walk towards the door.

There was a sound of rapid footsteps.

Then, at the corner of the corridor, a swift and decisive figure walked out.

At the age of 36 or 7, he has heroic features and a tall and thin figure.

Li Jiaxuan quickly followed her colleagues and bent down to greet them: "Boss Ji!"

Ji Qiuyu is the vice president of the group headquarters and is in charge of extremely important media operations. He holds a very high position in the company.

There are even rumors that the other party is highly appreciated and respected by Mo Xiangwan, and may be transferred to Tangzong Entertainment in the future.

"Squeak--" The door of the small conference room was pushed open.

Ji Qiuyu asked in surprise: "Where is Wenruan?"

The HR behind him said quickly: "He said he would wait until 5 o'clock. Maybe he went to the bathroom."

Li Jiaxuan's eyes flickered, and a helpless expression appeared on her face: "Boss Ji, I just ran into her. Wen Ruan said she had something important to deal with, so she left."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Ji Qiuyu looked at her.

Li Jiaxuan pursed her lips and said, "Sun Simin from the Marketing Planning Department is getting married tomorrow. She is Simin's classmate and best friend. She should go to help, right? I'm not sure."

"Marriage? Sun Simin?"

"Yeah, yeah."

Ji Qiuyu nodded slightly, without showing any dissatisfaction, and turned to walk out.

Since I missed it because of my own reasons, I might as well deal with the branch office's affairs first and take the initiative to go there tomorrow.

You can express your feelings and make friends with this promising colleague at the same time.
