Chapter 312: Cherish All Unexpected Encounters
Chapter 312: Cherish All Unexpected Encounters
"Muxue, sit here."
Zhang Yurong enthusiastically pulled Lin Muxue to sit on the sofa.
Brown single sofa, wooden long table, light aromatherapy, soft music...
On the coffee table in front of me, there were layers of exquisite afternoon tea.
Upscale and romantic, this is Lin Muxue's favorite environment.
But at this moment, she had no mood to enjoy herself at all, and her eyes couldn't help but look to the side and front.
"Let me introduce you to a new friend I met some time ago, Lin Muxue. Muxue is a senior committee assistant of a trust company in Hong Kong and currently works in a branch in Yancheng."
"Hello everyone." Lin Muxue showed a polite smile on her face.
Then, Zhang Yurong began to introduce the identities of the other five people to Lin Muxue one by one.
Today's business gathering is attended by only women.
Thanks to Isa Beauty Salon, Zhang Yurong has many outstanding women in her social circle.
They are all older than her and come from prominent families.
There are company vice presidents, technology company co-founders, and bank account managers.
"This is Xie Shuyu, the owner of Weiguang Coffee. Weiguang Coffee has 8 stores in Yancheng, most of which are in the CBD. It is very powerful."
After hearing Zhang Yurong's introduction, Lin Muxue straightened up a little and looked at Xie Shuyu bravely, "Hello, Mr. Xie."
"Hello, Mu Xue." Xie Shuyu acted very gracefully with a bright smile on his face.
Her hair was tied up at the back of her head, and her slightly raised eyebrows revealed a sense of confidence and determination.
The bright lipstick under her high nose bridge adds a touch of bright color to her.
The shirt with excellent texture outlines her slender waist and firm breasts.
The legs are very beautiful, typical supermodel legs.
The lines are smooth, with slight muscle texture on the calves and thighs, straight and slender without losing the sense of power.
Lin Muxue looked at her and subconsciously compared her with herself.
She is quite confident about her figure and appearance, and she doesn't look much worse than others.
But when it comes to temperament and demeanor, I feel a little discouraged.
This elegant and tenacious temperament is really charming.
She still remembers the scene of her and Tang Song standing on the stage together.
Moreover, at the cocktail party, the two of them acted very close.
Tang Song is also very concerned about Mr. Xie, and it is obvious that they have a special relationship.
As Tang Song's assistant and sex partner, Lin Muxue would of course feel a little uncomfortable.
...
Zhang Yurong did not immediately talk to her about financing, but instead treated her to afternoon tea and shared some skin care tips with her.
The atmosphere was very harmonious and pleasant.
I don’t know when.
"Boom--" The sound of thunder came from the thick clouds.
Raindrops hit the glass curtain wall of the hotel with a crackling sound.
……
22nd floor of Lanfeng International Hotel, administrative office area, sales department.
"Pah——" A stack of A4 papers was thrown casually onto the desk and scattered.
"Nana, there are problems with the content, format, and layout of the customer information you compiled. I will send you a case later and ask you to reprint and bind it and give it to me again!" Zhang Zili, head of the banquet sales department, said in a slightly heavy tone.
Yu Qiuna quickly stood up, bent down to organize the sales report, and said nervously: "Okay, boss! I'm sorry!"
Although she didn't know what she did wrong, she didn't dare to refute her direct supervisor in person.
Zhang Zili said "hmm", then said: "Also, the preferential application you gave to the client of Chenghua Commerce needs to take into account the hotel cost. The OA application has been rejected by me. How about this, you are still a new employee after all, let Qiu Wenzhe continue to follow up on this client."
Yu Qiuna's face changed, and she immediately said, "Boss, I developed this client from scratch. We are just negotiating on some catering discounts. We can sign the contract soon!"
She has been working for nearly two months, and Chenghua Trading is the largest order, with a contract value of over 50.
According to the tiered commission, she can get 3%, which is 1.5 yuan.
Moreover, this is a long-term cooperative customer. As long as she has this order, her transformation to a regular employee will go smoothly.
Colleagues from surrounding departments all looked over.
Zhang Zili's eyes instantly turned cold, and he said in a bland tone: "Then you two can follow up together. Qiu Wenzhe joined the company half a year earlier than you, so let him guide you."
After saying that, he walked straight towards the office.
The area where the banquet sales department is located was instantly filled with a buzz of discussion.
Feeling everyone's gazes, Yu Qiuna felt a surge of bitterness and loss in her heart.
Wang Linqing, a colleague next to her, touched her arm and signaled with his eyes.
Yu Qiuna quickly calmed down, stood up and walked out.
In the corridor.
Wang Linqing took out a bottle of chewing gum from his pocket, opened the cap and poured it out, "Don't be sad."
Yu Qiuna sighed, reached out to pick up a pill and started chewing it hard.
"You too, don't say some things to your face. I think Lao Zhang will torment you again later."
"I just feel it's unfair. The clients assigned to me were all hard-earned clients. I finally managed to get one. Why should I give it to Qiu Wen Ze?"
"Because his uncle is Mr. Zhao!"
Yu Qiuna pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
Just because he has an uncle who is the purchasing manager, Qiu Wenzhe is taken care of in every way in the company.
If you drink water, slack off and skip work every day, you can become an outstanding employee in the department, with high commissions. I heard that you will get a promotion at the end of the year.
Of course, this is just a minor problem for Lanfeng International.
As a luxury five-star hotel established for more than 8 years.
Although it is not particularly dark and corrupt, the internal interests are complicated and interconnected, and there are many parasites.
More serious ones include purchase rebates, supplier price increases, sales rebates…
Yu Qiuna has also heard her colleagues discuss this many times.
The leaders may be aware of these problems, but they are insiders and will not easily destroy this "harmonious and stable" ecological environment.
Wang Linqing shook his head and said, "Just accept it. Anyway, your current performance is enough, so it won't be a problem to get a permanent job. Besides, there are hidden rules everywhere. Lanfeng International is a large enterprise after all, and it has Yunxi Real Estate behind it. Relatively speaking, there are more channels and opportunities for advancement."
Yu Qiuna sat on the steps of the corridor and nodded helplessly, "I'll apologize to Director Zhang on WeChat later."
Being sociable is often just a helpless act, something the weak have to do in order to fit in with others.
As an ordinary salesperson on probation, Yu Qiuna had no choice, and she was reluctant to give up this hard-earned job.
The overall business environment is not good now. After leaving the BMW 4S store, she was successfully hired by Lanfeng International with the recommendation of her former colleague Wang Linqing. She cherishes this opportunity very much.
As a major landmark building in Yancheng, the popularity and strength of Lanfeng International Hotel are unquestionable.
A luxurious five-star hotel integrating guest rooms, catering, conferences, entertainment and leisure.
It is located next to the Line 1 subway station, close to the city's main roads, and surrounded by top-notch commercial facilities.
Good working environment, perfect welfare system, broad career development space, rich network resources...
These are advantages that she cannot resist as a salesperson.
Since we enjoy the benefits it brings, we naturally have to bear the corresponding disadvantages.
For example, complex interpersonal relationships and internal competition.
"Ding-dong--" "Ding-dong--"
Both of their cell phones rang at the same time.
Yu Qiuna came back to her senses from her thoughts, picked it up and took a look.
He quickly stood up and exclaimed, "Our new boss is coming this afternoon! Director Yu is coming too!"
Then he fancied, "Lin Qing, do you think our new boss can revitalize the company? At least make our work fairer!"
Wang Linqing shrugged and smiled, "Don't let your imagination run wild. How can such a big boss care about the well-being of us little minions? Even if we change a few big leaders, our situation will not change."
"Okay." Yu Qiuna let out a breath and followed Wang Linqing back to her workstation.
At this time, the atmosphere in the office area became completely different.
Everyone perked up and looked serious.
Even a few people with connections who were usually lazy tidied up their desks and started typing away on their computers.
Yu Qiuna could feel that everyone was actually a little afraid of the new boss.
Even those "managers" and "directors" who stand high in the clouds have become extremely cautious.
I heard that even the reimbursement applications in the OA system have decreased by one third.
Because the person who bought 80% of the shares of Lanfeng International Hotel from Yunxi Real Estate was an individual, not a company.
As the company's major shareholder, actual controller, ultimate beneficiary and executive director.
The future of all of them will be controlled by this new boss, and their life and death will all depend on his decision.
After calming down, Yu Qiuna began to reorganize the customer information according to the format sent by Manager Zhang.
The content was just adjusted in order, mainly by changing the font size and layout.
She also knew that Manager Zhang was deliberately trying to blackmail her. Even if she handed it in as it was, the other party would definitely pass it.
A message suddenly popped up in the WeChat group.
[Sun Tingting: "I'm welcoming guests in the lobby. Our new boss has arrived! He's driving a Bentley Continental! What a beautiful car!"]
[Sun Tingting: "Wow, this is the boss driving the car himself, he must be quite young. The door is open! I'll go see what the boss looks like!"]
The group instantly became excited.
Yu Qiuna also followed up with a few discussions.
This mysterious new boss was visiting Lanfeng International Hotel for the first time, and the entire equity transaction was conducted with Yunxi Real Estate.
Only a few senior leaders in the company know the specific information.
So everyone was very curious.
However, lobby receptionist Sun Tingting did not reply, which made everyone in the small group very anxious.
After a while, a buzz of discussion began to appear in the office area.
Yu Qiuna keenly noticed that the expressions of many of her colleagues around her had become very interesting.
【Sun Tingting: “Ahhhhhhhhh!”】
[Sun Tingting: "I can't stand it anymore, our new boss is a man of God!"]
……
Bean-sized raindrops hit the ground violently, splashing water on the stone road outside the hotel.
The Lanfeng International Hotel looks even more solemn and dignified in the rain.
A white Bentley Continental GT drove slowly over, and the mist from its wheels splashed in the rain.
The smooth lines of the car body exude elegance and nobility in the dim light.
Under the awning at the door.
More than a dozen formally dressed men and women gathered together, watching the Bentley slowly stop.
Everyone smiled warmly on their faces.
"Click--" the driver's door slowly opened.
Tang Song, wearing a black shirt, black trousers and black leather shoes, stood up and glanced at everyone calmly.
She stood tall and confident, with a calm demeanor, and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Mr. Tang!"
Lawyer Zhao Xingzhi from Quanjing Law Firm was the first to say hello.
Yu Baohua, former executive director and senior executive of Yunxi Real Estate, stepped forward quickly.
He first introduced himself, and then said enthusiastically: "President Tang's arrival really brightens our eyes. I believe that under your leadership, the hotel will usher in a more brilliant future."
The two exchanged brief greetings.
The hotel's general manager, Qiao Anji, stepped forward quickly and said, "Hello, Mr. Tang. I am the hotel manager, Qiao Anji. On behalf of all the hotel staff, I warmly welcome you."
The executives behind him immediately bowed slightly, smiled enthusiastically and nodded.
I couldn't help but glance over at the new boss.
Although I already knew that he was a 25-year-old young man, I didn't expect him to be so outstanding.
However, they are all experienced elites in the hotel industry with first-class emotional control ability, so naturally they will not show any abnormalities.
There was just the right amount of tension and shock in his eyes.
Tang Song had a faint smile on his face. After chatting with everyone for a few words, he was surrounded and walked into the gorgeous hotel lobby.
The interior decoration is magnificent, exquisite and upscale. Along the way, the greeters, waiters and receptionists nearby all looked at me with respect and shock, and bowed to me on their own initiative.
Tang Song nodded at them calmly and walked through the bright hall with elegant and leisurely steps.
The guests who happened to be passing by, sitting in the lounge area, or checking in saw this scene, and their eyes instantly showed surprise and astonishment.
When he found out that it was the hotel owner, his expression changed instantly.
Several young girls felt their faces blushing and their hearts beating fast, as if the plot of a TV drama had been reflected in reality.
...
The elevator stopped on the 22nd floor, and everyone walked through the corridor and into the hotel's administrative office area.
Simple and elegant decoration style.
The off-white walls and dark wooden skirtings give a calm yet elegant feeling.
The floor is covered with high-quality carpet, and footsteps are silent.
The office area is spacious, bright and well organized.
Various green plants, equipment, and office furniture are interspersed between the desks and chairs, making the space look very comfortable and warm.
It fits the style of a luxury five-star hotel.
As the footsteps sounded, the staff all "saluted" towards this side.
The group of people who came with Tang Song include all the current senior management of the hotel.
In the past, we only got together like this during the annual meeting.
Yu Qiuna, who was sitting at the side of the corridor, also looked over. Her eyes trembled, and her gaze was full of surprise and shock.
The customer information that had just been printed in my hand was not held firmly and fell to the ground with a loud crash.
Yu Qiuna was startled and quickly bent down and picked it up swiftly.
But it also attracted a lot of attention.
Yu Qiuna's chest heaved, but she couldn't help but take another look.
Unexpectedly, I met Tang Song's eyes.
The corners of her mouth curled up, and she wondered if she was dazed.
Although the facial features are correct, there is still a clear difference in figure and temperament.
Especially since he was surrounded by a group of senior leaders and was wearing a high-end suit, he looked elegant and dazzling.
It’s most likely that handsome boss.
"Nana?" A voice came with a hint of surprise, very pleasant to hear.
In an instant, more than a dozen people around also stopped and looked at the female employee sitting in the corner.
His eyes were full of curiosity and scrutiny.
Colleagues in the sales department's office were all startled and stared at that place in amazement.
Yu Qiuna stood up with a bang, her face flushed with excitement, and said nervously: "Mr. Tang... Mr. Tang! Hello! I didn't expect you still remember me!"
Tang Song looked at the female employee in front of him with a bright smile on his face. "Of course I remember. Are you working at Lanfeng International Hotel now? When did you leave the BMW 4S store?"
As he spoke, Tang Song looked at her with some emotion.
She is in her early twenties, with medium-short hair and pretty features. She is wearing a women's suit and looks very energetic.
Although only three months have passed, it feels like things have changed a lot.
When he completed "My First Car" and received his BMW 330i, it was Yu Qiuna who received him throughout the whole process.
The two have always been WeChat friends.
When I first got the car, she would ask from time to time if there were any problems using the car and if I needed help.
She even sent special blessings on the Dragon Boat Festival.
However, because she posted too many advertisements in her circle of friends, Tang Song blocked her and no one knew when she resigned.
Seeing Tang Song's gentle attitude, Yu Qiuna was so excited that she was shaking all over and her heart was beating fast.
He lowered his head slightly, trying to remain calm and said, "I resigned in May and have been working at Lanfeng International Hotel for more than a month."
Now that new energy vehicles are very popular, business at BMW 4S stores is particularly bad.
But she was eager to make money, so she simply quit her job and wanted to apply for a sales position at a domestic new force.
Later, I was recommended here by my former colleague Wang Linqing, which was considered good luck.
"Then you continue working, we'll talk when we have time. Bye." Tang Song nodded with a smile and continued to walk inside.
As the group left.
The office was quiet for a while, and then there was an irrepressible discussion.
"That was our new boss, right?"
"From what Sister Lin, the receptionist at the lobby, described, it's definitely him!"
"Both Director Yu and President Qiao are so respectful, it must be so!"
...
"Nana, do you know our boss?"
"When did you meet, Sister Na?"
"Yes, Qiu Na, do you know where our boss comes from?"
Yu Qiuna stood at her workstation and glanced at her colleagues in the department.
Anxiety and fear were seen on their faces.
For a moment, I was very excited and the expression on my face was very interesting.
She was not stupid, so she naturally knew what it meant to know the boss.
Even if she and Mr. Tang didn't say a few words, they would still have wild thoughts.
All the unfairness encountered before will disappear immediately, and it is estimated that Manager Zhang will even take the initiative to give himself business.
I never expected that the former customer would become so outstanding and become the new owner of this five-star hotel.
The shock she felt was indescribable.
Maybe Lanfeng International will really be reborn.
……
5th floor, Guyi Business Club.
Zhang Yurong took a sip of the fragrant tea and suddenly asked, "Shuyu, how is Weiguang Coffee's recent financing going? Is there any new progress?"
Lin Muxue quickly pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
Xie Shuyu was silent for a moment, his determined eyes showing fatigue, "It's still at a stalemate, mainly because the other two shareholders are causing trouble.
Because of the risks, Tiancheng Capital's investment has been temporarily suspended, and the bank will also have to monitor and inspect the company's financial situation.
I came here today to talk to Mr. Kong about the company's loan."
As she spoke, she looked at the bank executive Kong Lixin.
Kong Lixin smiled and said softly, "Boss Xie, we are old friends. Don't worry, I will say hello to the risk control department later. As long as Weiguang Coffee's business is not a big problem, we will finish our business soon and will not interfere with your normal business."
"Thank you." Xie Shuyu showed a grateful look on his face.
But he knew clearly in his heart that Kong Lixin didn't want to intervene and her words were just perfunctory.
Lin Muxue listened to their conversation quietly, her eyes flickering.
She naturally knew about this matter. In addition to the investment roadshow, her former colleague Gu Cheng also mentioned it several times.
I heard that Tiancheng Capital is interested in investing.
What puzzled her most was why a big shot like Tang Song would accompany Xie Shuyu to the roadshow instead of directly investing in her company.
Is he trying to have some fun with this female CEO? Is he trying to date her as an ordinary person?
Thinking of Tang Song’s attitude at the banquet.
Lin Muxue lowered her eyes. She had a strong premonition that Tang Song would definitely invest in Weiguang Coffee in the end.
Maybe you still have to participate in due diligence.
I couldn't help feeling a little melancholy and bitter.
...
The thunderstorm outside the window gradually subsided.
Afternoon tea came to an end and everyone left one after another.
Zhang Yurong took Lin Muxue to a leisure tea room inside.
She took out a few cards from her bag and handed them over, saying sincerely, "Muxue, this is the diamond membership card of Isha Beauty, valid in 6 stores, with a balance of 20. You are welcome to visit us when you are free. This is a shopping card for Fenghui Mall. A friend gave me a few of them before, but I can't use them. You live in Lanfeng International Apartment next door, so take them."
Looking at the cards in front of her, Lin Muxue's heart skipped a beat and she clenched her legs tightly around the table.
The diamond membership card of Isha Beauty requires a one-time recharge of 10 yuan to apply for, and it has many privileges and discounts, which she once coveted very much.
However, due to her previous financial constraints, she has always been just an ordinary member, and she checks the mini program at a certain time every day to grab special offer packages.
Fenghui Shopping Mall is located between Lanfeng International Hotel and the apartment. It is a large shopping mall with a construction area of 5000 square meters and many luxury stores.
Each of these shopping cards is worth 1 yuan and can be spent directly as cash.
Pinching her thighs hard, Lin Muxue asked in a low voice: "Sister Yurong, what do you mean?"
She has been working in the society for so long that she naturally understands a simple truth: there is no good in this world without reason.
Zhang Yurong smiled and said softly: "To be honest, the beauty industry is developing rapidly now. Yisha Beauty can't wait too long and must add light medical beauty projects.
Institutions look down on stores like ours. I have already contacted many individual investors, some of whom have ideas.
But I think the most reliable and the one that suits my heart the most is Zhao Yaqian, and I really want to work with her."
Lin Muxue's eyes flickered, and she suddenly looked at her and said, "Sister Yurong, you think Qianqian is very simple, right?"
Zhang Yurong paused for a moment, then said naturally, "I admit that this is a big part of the reason, but I have no ill intentions."
With her vision and experience, she can roughly understand the other person's character after one or two contacts.
That's why he met with Lin Muxue alone instead of Zhao Yaqian.
Lin Muxue exhaled, and said with a sharp look: "Qianqian is not as simple as you think. The people behind her are even more complicated, and her investment is not so easy to get."
"I know." Zhang Yurong nodded, and after a moment of silence, she said, "If this can be accomplished, Mu Xue, your membership card will be upgraded to a shareholder membership. In addition to exclusive rights and brand co-construction, you can also enjoy profit dividends from the beauty salon."
Lin Muxue was stunned, her heart beating wildly.
Zhang Yurong saw Qianqian's trust in her and hoped to use her to influence Qianqian's decision and reach the investment as soon as possible.
And she was also very generous, her attack was completely aimed at her weak spot.
Moreover, she knew that behind Qianqian stood Juqing Huijin. Once she decided to invest, there was a high probability that Yisa Beauty would take off.
Member shareholders! Annual dividends!
This is a naked temptation!
After a long while, Lin Muxue pushed the pile of cards back with difficulty, and said in a dry voice: "I'm sorry, Sister Yurong, I'm not that kind of person."
After saying this, she finally felt relieved.
For her, the work of Juqinghuijin is still the most important.
If I really couldn't resist the temptation and betrayed the beautician, how would Tang Song look at me if he knew?
Zhang Yurong raised her eyebrows in surprise, took the membership card back, but kept the shopping card.
"You can use these shopping cards. I really can't use them."
She raised her wrist to check the time and said with a smile, "You can take your time to think about what I just said. You can contact me at any time. I have something else to deal with, so I'll leave first. The SPA in this club is pretty good. I've already paid for it. You can stay for a while."
After saying that, she stood up and walked out.
Looking at the four shopping cards on the table, Lin Muxue pursed her lips and took them.
He walked out of the tea room with a heavy heart.
I found a quiet corner in the hall and sat down on a comfortable single sofa.
Looking at the gloomy sky outside the window, I began to ponder.
Compared with a real female CEO like Xie Shuyu, I am indeed far behind.
Sometimes she even looked down on herself. The shopping card only had tens of thousands of dollars in it, but she just couldn't bear to part with it.
I knew there was a free SPA, and I thought it would be a shame not to take advantage of such a good deal.
No wonder Tang Song looked down on me.
As she thought about it, her head lowered lower and her nose felt a little sore.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the entrance of the business club.
It was accompanied by an introduction.
"Mr. Tang, this is the Guyi Business Club, located in the core area of the hotel. It has multiple meeting rooms, coffee break rooms, leisure areas of different sizes... It is equipped with the most advanced audio, projection, video conferencing and other equipment... In addition, catering services are also a highlight of ours..."
Lin Muxue turned her head and saw 6 or 7 people coming towards her.
There were many service staff following behind him.
She blinked and stared blankly at Tang Song who suddenly appeared.
When their eyes met, her heart began to beat violently. She quickly stuffed the shopping card in her hand into her bag and clenched her hands tightly.
