I have ten trillion licking dog gold

How many people have entered the local police station chief's office?

The city leader’s office?

Provincial leadership office?

Have you been in?
Then.

What’s further up?

Jiuding Group, as a giant beast hidden in the clouds, always looks down on all living beings.

Of course, perhaps many people have seen it and know of its existence, but what they have seen is just a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

Each company is different, sometimes very different.

Private enterprises and state-owned enterprises can never be compared.

More precisely.

Some companies can no longer be described as "enterprises". Most companies are rooted in a certain industry and work hard, while some companies are the creators of the industry.

The gap.

Comparable to three-dimensional and two-dimensional.

When Cao Jinse arrived as scheduled after the phone call, the other party was already sitting on the sofa waiting.

"sit."

The office of the head of Jiuding Group is not as grand as imagined. It even exudes a sense of efficiency and simplicity. There are no valuable calligraphy or antiques. A private family portrait on the desk is one of the few decorations in the office.

"Director Hua."

Cao Jinse walked over and greeted him at the same time. Even though she could have called him Uncle Hua based on their relationship, this was in the company.

When you are working, you have to call your position!

Although they are superiors and subordinates, they actually don't have many opportunities to meet. Cao Jinse is busy with all kinds of affairs, not to mention the head of Jiuding.

This is also the reason why Cao Jinse felt strange about being asked to meet suddenly.

"I hope I didn't disturb your meal."

The other party asked with a smile, "Is it lunch time?"

"Just had a cup of coffee."

Cao Jinse spoke humorously and frankly, and then fell silent.

"Drinking coffee in the middle of the day? Do we, the always energetic female Zhuge, have to rely on caffeine to store energy?"

Hua Guomao teased, his laughter having a very recognizable flavor, which could actually be seen from his temperament and instinctive sitting posture.

That's right.

The head of Jiuding Group is a... retired veteran who has been demobilized and returned to work. Although he has been retired for decades, he still has a strong military aura, with strong facial features, uprightness, and a sense of majesty without even getting angry.

"If Mr. Hua could give me a vacation..."

Cao Jinse was interrupted before she could finish her words.

"I don't have the final say on this. The company needs to agree. The company can do without me, but it can't do without you for a day."

"But——"

Hua Guomao changed the subject and said, "I can help you get your request to the executive meeting, but as for whether it will be approved, I can't guarantee it."

Cao Jinse smiled helplessly. Of course she knew that the other party was joking. Just such a small matter required a group of giants to hold a special meeting to discuss it?
"That's no need."

Respect is respect, but Cao Jinse was not too restrained when talking to the other party.

"Any grudges?"

Hua Guomao asked deliberately.

You know, this is a truly powerful person. The current chairman of Jiuding Group is just one of his positions!

Although the gold content is very high.

But even foreign guests like Fujiwara no Reihime must know that positions in Shenzhou not only have value, but also power.

"No."

Regardless of whether the other party was speaking insincerely or not, he just gave in. Hua Guomao nodded as if nothing had happened: "Well, that's good. Although the company can't give you a back door, you don't have to be too hard on yourself. Rest when you need to rest and relax when you need to relax. You have to combine work and rest. If you push yourself to the limit now, how can you take on a heavier burden next time? You have to know that the company's expectations of you may be more than what you have now..."

What a classic leadership move.

What a straightforward way of making empty promises.

Princess Cao is not a rookie in the workplace, so she would not be fooled. Although her expression looks focused, she is actually like a student who is absent from class, and what she is told goes in one ear and out the other.

"Are you listening?"

Hua Guomao obviously noticed the other party's perfunctory attitude.

“Thank you for your respect for me.”

Princess Cao's response was even more perfunctory.

Hua Guomao smiled and shook his head, "You thought I was just making big promises to you, didn't you?"

"No."

"..."

Hua Guomao found it more and more funny. His friendly eyes did not look like that of a superior looking at a subordinate, but more like that of an elder looking at a younger person.

"I don't have the time to ask you to drink sugar water."

Hua Guomao's smile faded and his expression became solemn. "In view of your work ability and attitude as well as your contribution to the group, the group has studied your new position. Your position as strategic chief engineer will remain unchanged for the time being. The group plans to promote you to executive vice president."

Cao Jinse's pupils contracted and she couldn't help but look at the other person.

Hua Guomao looked calm and said, "So I came to ask you what you think."

Any comments?
Who would object to a promotion and a raise?
and.

This is no ordinary progress.

The higher you go and the higher your position, the more difficult it will be to climb up.

How many people are stuck in their lifetime just for half a step away.

"If you have any ideas, please speak up."

"Would it be inappropriate?"

"Why is it inappropriate?"

Hua Guomao asked with a serious expression, "Are you referring to your age? Huo Qubing was only 20 when he conquered Langjuxu, and Su Qin was only 30 when he was appointed Prime Minister of the Six Kingdoms. Your abilities and achievements are obvious to all. Do you think the group will promote an unworthy person to such an important position?"

Cao Jinse knew that her threshold was not here and she would definitely cross it, but she didn't expect it to be so fast.

Whether it is business or career.

There are strict rules for promotion.

Although her "road to promotion" was like riding a rocket, but at a certain altitude, even a rocket has to slow down. She had a rough idea of ​​how long she would need to stay in the position of chief strategic engineer and how much foundation she would need to lay. The sudden personnel changes obviously exceeded her budget.

"Don't have any burdens or ambitions. The company believes in you, and you should believe in yourself too."

Although he was asking for opinions, he didn't really care about Princess Cao's opinion.

Furthermore.

"Promotion and salary increase", is there anyone stupid enough to object?"

Hua Guomao's final decision pushed a young man in his twenties to a new height.

"Uncle Hua, is there any reason?"

Cao Jinse spoke and quietly changed the address.

"Reason? If there is one, it's because you are Cao Jinse. Everyone has seen your performance so far. You never care about personal gains and losses, and you are wholeheartedly for the group, the country, and the people. I hope you will not forget your original intention and keep this quality forever."

It seemed to be a summary of facts, an affirmation of subordinates by superiors, and a commendation and expectation of juniors by elders, but Cao Jinse heard a different meaning in it.

She looked at Hua Guomao with a deep look in his eyes and didn't ask any more questions.

“Thank you for the company’s trust.”

"Okay, the appointment letter will be issued in a few days. Jinse, the future belongs to you young people. Uncle Hua has always been optimistic about you. You must not let Uncle Hua down."

"I understand, Uncle Hua."

"Go ahead and get busy. Oh, and don't forget to eat."

----

"Miss."

Jiuding Group executives cafeteria.

After receiving the call, Maotu hurried downstairs and saw that the lady had already ordered the dishes.

Wow.

Quite hearty.

There are actually six dishes.

Her eyes lit up at the sight. She had been waiting in the office and indeed had not had time to eat lunch.

"You must be hungry. Sit down and eat."

Maotu sat down quickly, feeling excited but also a little confused. Although the cafeteria was just downstairs, the lady had been in the office all this time, and it was already past 1:30.

"Miss, it's almost two o'clock."

Rabbit reminder.

What do the two dots represent?
It means lunch break is over and it’s time to go to work!
"It's okay, eat slowly."

Cao Jinse’s response caught Maotu even more off guard.

What's going on?

How could such "irresponsible" words come out of the mouth of a workaholic lady?

Moreover, when the lady saw Jiang Chen coming back and leaving the office, she was clearly in a bad mood. Why did she have a good appetite now?
"Miss, what did Director Hua talk to you about?"

Rabbit asked tentatively.

Cao Jinse seemed to be calm, lowering her head while eating, saying: "Only by keeping the original intention in mind can we achieve the goal."

"what?"

The Rabbit is confused.

Cao Jinse really did eat slowly and was not in a hurry at all even though the lunch break was about to end.

This is right.

She is a senior executive, there is no need for her to be bound by rules and regulations.

Many times, we really make things difficult for ourselves.

Moreover.

The boss has spoken, why not give yourself a break?

"Only by keeping your original intention in mind can you achieve your goal? Why would President Hua say such a thing?" Maotu asked curiously, feeling puzzled.

Cao Jinse didn't explain.

In fact, it was not all said by the other party. She only said the first half of the sentence, and the whole sentence was her own summary.

"The group is planning to promote me to executive vice president."

Cao Jinse said.

Rabbit opened his eyes wide again, stunned.

Although she has never worked, no, she has always been working, or to be more precise, she has never been in the workplace, but she is also clear about the difference between the executive vice president and the current position of the young lady.

Although the strategic chief engineer is a high-ranking and powerful person, he actually only has the "right to make suggestions", that is, he makes his own plans and then reports them for approval. As for the position of executive vice president, although he is still not one of the core giants in the giant Jiuding Group, he has also entered a higher level of decision-making.

"Wow, no wonder! Miss, we really should celebrate!"

The rabbit cheered with joy, then immediately grabbed the chopsticks and began to eat with relish.

Can't say I'm heartless.

Have.

But not much.

Are you putting your suspicions to rest now?
Don’t you think about the speed at which the lady is promoted? Is it really reasonable?

And at this critical juncture.

There were rumors going around, so logically, let alone promotion. As a leader, he should have warned him.

Cao Jinse remained silent and ate quietly.

"what……"

Maotu suddenly raised his head, finally reacted and realized something was wrong.

"Miss, why have you never mentioned this before? Do you want to give me a surprise?"

"..."

Ok.

Logically, such a major personnel arrangement would never be announced at the last minute, and rumors should have already spread the moment it was officially confirmed.

At least I will know it in advance.

"Director Hua just told me that."

"what?"

Puzzled, Maotu put down his chopsticks and felt strange again, "This shouldn't be the case. Could it be that he wanted to give the young lady a surprise?"

surprise?

Are you sure it's not a shock?
"Miss, why do you seem unhappy?"

Maotu saw the clue from her face.

"I'm happy."

Cao Jinse slowly smiled, "Promotion and salary increase, and saving a few years of work, why shouldn't I be happy?"

Fake.

Too fake.

Totally insincere.

Could it be that Jiang Chen has completely messed up the young lady's mentality?
"Miss, personal matters are personal matters, and they must not affect your work. Women must be independent!"

Well said.

Perhaps because it was said too well, Rabbit couldn't control his mouth and started to speak lamely.

"There's a saying that goes, failure in love, success in career, although Miss..."

and many more.

The Rabbit suddenly reacted and quickly shut his mouth. He didn't dare to look at the other person, lowered his head, and wished he could hide under the table.

Cao Jinse was neither angry nor upset and continued to eat her meal calmly. It was not that she did not hear Maotu's nonsense, but she was recalling the previous scene in Starbucks.

That guy certainly didn't come here intentionally to get scolded today.

It's really about solving problems.

It seems that the sticky note was really thrown away.

The past flashed before my eyes like a passing scene.

Cao Jinse wanted to laugh for no reason.

This feeling is very strange, just like watching a child grow taller step by step. In the beginning, you know everything about him and can control him at will, but in the end, he is taller than you and you can no longer predict his methods.

But tell the truth.

Better than her plan.

Compared to taking out that convenient note, this situation is obviously more "happy for everyone".

It's really comprehensive...

"Miss, what are you thinking about? Why don't you eat?"

Looking at the lady who put down her chopsticks unconsciously, Maotu asked carefully.

"How about you saying I refuse the new position?"

Cao Jinse's words were shocking.

"what?!"

Rabbit couldn't believe it and asked quickly, "Why?"

The other party didn't answer.

"Miss, you can't be stupid. If you refuse, you don't know when you'll have to wait for the next time. It might take years, and you might even offend someone."

There is no need to work in the workplace. Even a fool can understand such a simple truth.

The company values ​​you and works hard to promote you. What will the company think if you don’t accept or appreciate it?
Turning down a promotion is a small matter.

What's next?
Will there be opportunities for promotion in the future?
What you are rejecting is not an appointment, but your own career prospects.

After all, we can't treat everyone as a bootlicker and be unconditionally tolerant.

"Miss, what are you thinking about?"

Rabbit thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure out why the young lady said that.

Of course she couldn't understand.

According to the law of conservation of energy, what you gain means what you give up. Making progress in one area means you need to compromise in another area.

Is that really the case?

Is it impossible to have both career and love?

After triggering Maotu's brainstorm, Cao Jinse stopped asking questions and picked up her chopsticks again, muttering something softly in a tone that only she could hear.

"Damn it."
