Chapter 316: Being a Secretary is Really Difficult
On his first day as a secretary, Chu Yang adhered to the principle of not saying anything if possible, because he didn't know Mr. Li very well yet and it would be easy for him to make more mistakes than he said.
Now that Mr. Li asked me to speak, I certainly had to speak out.
But it was obvious that Director Li's starting point was not to listen to his own opinions, but most likely to test himself. After all, he had been in this position for so many years, and this kind of thing happened at least eight times a year, if not ten times. How could he not know how to deal with it?
That's a joke.
Chu Yang now has several options. The first one is to plead with Fan Zhesi.
Say a few nice words and ask Director Li not to pursue this matter.
This way, I could gain Fan Zhesi's gratitude, and maybe I could win his heart in the future.
But is this a bit too obvious?
Is it worth it?
And from the series of reactions just now, it is clear that Director Li didn't want to meet Fan Zhesi from the beginning. Now he is asking for his own statement. This shows that there seems to be no room for maneuver in this matter. Director Li should have made up his mind to severely punish this guy.
At this moment, Mr. Li probably wanted to say something unpleasant.
However, he did not want to be the bad guy, so he tried to explain himself that as a secretary, he must always abide by the leader's will, follow Mr. Li's ideas, and serve the leader.
So Chu Yang immediately replied: "Boss Li, although I am not very clear about the ins and outs of this matter and dare not jump to conclusions, I know that safety is the company's red line, the final bottom line, and no one can violate it. If anyone violates it, they will definitely be held accountable. Not only will the direct leaders be held accountable and punished, but the top leader will also be held responsible. In view of the frequent safety accidents in Buhai City, I think this matter must be severely punished and handled quickly, and an explanation must be given to the employees, otherwise the people below will be panicked, which is not conducive to the future development of the company's work."
Mr. Fan, there is no other way. In the current situation, I can only do my duty as a secretary and win the respect of Mr. Li. If the person sitting in the front is Mr. Xie, Chu Yang might plead for him.
After listening to Chu Yang's words, Director Li nodded with satisfaction and looked at President Fan with an expression that said, "Did you hear that?" After hearing what Chu Yang said, Fan Zhesi looked as if he had been shot several times and his face looked as pale as death.
He arched his body, half of his body leaned forward, and his butt also moved half forward. I don't know if he was unable to sit still or if he did it on purpose.
He actually slid down to his knees.
Hiss~
"Mr. Li, please give me one chance. I promise that such a thing will never happen again." At this moment, Fan Zhesi completely lost the dignity of a top leader. His face was covered with snot, and he looked like a beggar on the street, wagging his tail to beg for mercy from his master.
Chu Yang was greatly shocked when he saw this scene, and his heart seemed to be deeply hurt by something.
All along, in his opinion, working in Aiguoli Company was just a job. To kneel down for a job, my God, Chu Yang asked himself if he could do it, but others could, and he was the head of a city-level company.
Too scary, if a person can kneel so easily, then what else can't he do? This was Chu Yang's first reaction, so in his eyes, Fan Zhesi's action did not add points, and even deducted points.
Chu Yang was very curious about how Director Li would handle this matter. After all, he had never had the opportunity to encounter such a thing before. To be honest, if he were in Director Li's position, he might really give him a chance.
But Director Li is still Director Li. He still has no expression, as if he has seen through everything and doesn't even want to waste time on this matter. He agreed to meet Fan Zhesi and actually had the answer in his heart.
So he ignored Fan Zhesi who was half-kneeling on the ground, and instead stood up and asked Chu Yang, "Chu Yang, do I have a meeting later? What time is it?"
Chu Yang was stunned, thinking, there was no meeting in the morning, wasn't it just to meet someone? Why is there a meeting?
But when Director Li's eyes crossed, Chu Yang immediately understood and quickly slapped his head and replied, "Yes, Director Li, I almost forgot that you have a video conference and a seminar with the headquarters at 11 o'clock. It's almost time."
Damn, being a secretary is so difficult. I almost didn’t get Mr. Li’s intention. If... the consequences would be disastrous. Mr. Li, oh Mr. Li, could you please stop doing these little tricks?
After listening to this, Mr. Li nodded and looked at his watch, as if he really took this matter to heart, and immediately looked at Fan Zhesi.
"Comrade Fan Zhesi, we are out of time. Let's leave it at that for today. Go back and do your job. The matter is clear now. I will hold a board meeting on Friday to discuss this matter specifically. We can talk about it later."
After Mr. Li finished speaking, he stood up and walked to his desk, no longer looking at Fan Zhesi. This was an order to expel him, and it also completely declared Fan Zhesi's death sentence.
Mr. Fan was naturally a little unwilling. He was still kneeling on the ground and refused to get up. It seemed that he could no longer stand up. The kneeling just now had actually used up all his strength. This was the price.
Chu Yang had no choice but to go over and help him up. The two of them stood up together: "Boss Fan, how about we go back first? Boss Li is about to start a meeting."
Fan Zhesi hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chu Yang again. His eyes, as big as those of a buffalo, seemed to contain more than ten kinds of emotions. But in the end, he still looked at Mr. Li and staggered away.
Chu Yang then secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly cleared the teacups on the table.
"Chu Yang, let me see the transcript." At this time, Director Li said again.
Oh my god! Chu Yang was startled and almost dropped the notebook in his hand. He was talking just now and had no time to write. Moreover, he had no experience, so the notes were a bit sloppy. They were all short sentences with only subject, predicate and object written down.
"Hey, Mr. Li, I remember it rather sloppily. How about I take it out and sort it out before giving it to you?" Chu Yang was really careless, but he was too nervous just now and didn't do it well.
Director Li smiled and said, "Let me see it first." Director Li took it and looked at it, then threw it back: "You still need to practice more in this area, but today is your first day as my secretary, and your performance is not bad."
Chu Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "Boss Li, I didn't get into the groove on the first day. I didn't know what to do and what not to do. I think it will get better in the future."
Mr. Li replied, "You are smarter than the old Xiao Chen. You will do very well."
Chu Yang took the opportunity to say, "Boss Li, if there is anything I did wrong, please criticize me."
Director Li: "Well, it's okay. Go out and complete the transcript and show it to me."
“Okay.” Chu Yang put away his teacup and walked out. He thought to himself, I should start recording before taking the statement. Damn, who knows so much?
When he returned to his office and was about to have a cup of tea to calm his nerves, Zhang Shuyu, the director of the office, came over and asked, "How is Chu Yang? Did you make any mistakes on the first day?"
After Zhang Shuyu finished his work, he came over to take a look, fearing that Chu Yang had made some mistakes. Just now, he saw President Fan coming out like a zombie, and he probably guessed that he was scolded by Director Li.
"Thanks to you, Minister Zhang, there shouldn't be any major problems for the time being."
Zhang Shuyu nodded: "Yes, Comrade Chu Yang is still excellent. I am worrying too much. There is nothing planned now. I will go in and talk to Director Li."
Chu Yang: "Well, there are no plans."
