Reaching for the stars with one hand

Chapter 81 Huo Zhichao 2
Although Zhang Yong signed the resignation document, John did not sign it in the end, but asked Elena to seal the document signed by Zhang Yong forever.

He wrote an email to Paul.

"Zhang Yong signed without hesitation, but after reading the materials he gave me, I changed my mind.

You know that the SAP system and Salesforce are being implemented within the group, and everyone is implementing them, but there are not many people who really support them. Most people think this is unbearable paper work, which increases countless workloads, but it is not practical. meaning.

This system has not been used outside the United States, and it may be because of the fear of encountering conflicts with local culture and office habits.

But when I opened the information Zhang Yong left me, I had an illusion.Not simple profiles, not client lists and project names.It is simply a mini version of the ERP system, with all the information you want, as well as the query of historical information, and the action plan based on the information analysis and summary.

I can see that he must have spent a lot of time and energy on this system, but I asked other colleagues in the representative office, and no one knew about this system, and no one had ever heard him mention it.I mean, he just sees it as a tool to manage his projects, and that's how it should be.

In addition to the sales part, there are a lot of technical details, and there are also follow-up corresponding technical solutions, and even who to hand it over to, Dr. Zhong Xiaofei, Mark, or Richard, are all clearly marked.

He gave me all the materials without any reservations, and he didn't see any reluctance.I have a feeling that he has all these materials in his heart, and even if we forcibly search him, we cannot take these materials away from him.

The attachment is the information I took from him, I didn't do anything with it, it was just like this when it was given to me.

Now, I have two problems.

One is to pass on this information to whom?It is not difficult to find a successor to Zhang Yong. With his information, the latecomers should be able to get started soon.But can we still see this information continue to be updated like this?I think it's hard.

Another problem is the part that remains in his mind. I think it is very difficult for someone to take it away from Zhang Yong. I am not just talking about these materials, but the actual project.

I know that SKydon's management relies on the operation of the system to reduce dependence on a certain person, but this Zhang Yong is very special, he can make our system work better.

There is one more thing I want to report to you.Tian Xiaowei has not left China, he is still here.This is a person who has never done small business. Combined with Carl's previous report, I think the chances of larger projects appearing in the Engineering Center in recent years are very high.We can't afford to make mistakes this time, we need someone with rich experience and familiarity with users to operate on this project.

However, we obviously already have a ready-made candidate here, why change?

Therefore, I want to apply to keep Zhang Yong.From his information, it is also hard for me to believe that he will follow someone alone. I think his vision should be higher than that of Tiger. "

Frowning, Paul finished reading the email, then opened the attachment.

In the end, he wrote back to John, "I never issued an order to let Zhang Yong resign. All of this was left to you to evaluate. He is your person, and you can make your own decisions."

……

……

Lily is only one second away from her own success.

Zhang Yong finally picked up the phone and called him, but the moment the phone was connected, another call came in suddenly.Zhang Yong glanced at the phone screen, he hung up the call he made, but answered the incoming call.

It was Elena who called, "The boss said that the document you signed was not approved, and I have sealed it permanently. He hopes that you will come back to work immediately. If you have any questions, you can call him at any time."

"Okay, it was sudden. I need to think about it."

"Well, I'm just helping the boss convey his attitude. From a personal point of view, I advise you to think carefully. I don't like this kind of back-and-forth. It doesn't conform to the company's management, nor does it show respect for people. I know your There are many choices, think about it for yourself.”

"I see, thank you."

Then Lily called back, "Mr. Zhang, I seem to have missed your call, are you looking for me?"

"I'm sorry, Lily, to bother you. I did want to find you just now, but I don't need it now. Let's keep in touch, shall we?"

Lily was not without disappointment, "Okay, Mr. Zhang. I hope to receive calls from you in the future. We have recommended many candidates for the position of Eka, but they are not satisfied. Actually, why don't you come and talk? Nothing to lose."

"I'll think about it, thank you, Lily."

……

……

Zhang Yong went to work normally the next day, and greeted everyone as usual.No one except Irina knew what had happened.Even when he saw John, he said good morning and didn't say another word.John felt rather complicated in his heart, he couldn't tell whether he gave Zhang Yong a chance, or Zhang Yong gave himself a chance.

The angry madman in the distance just asked Zhang Yong for information the night before. Knowing this, the angry madman was furious, "Boy, do you still have any backbone? If you let you go, you can stay? At least let John, that bird of yours, came out and knelt down, and the clear water splashed the street and the loess pad to carry you back. Why did you have to stay? Even if SKydon is a good platform, you have done what you should do, so you don’t have to wrong yourself here .”

"Reluctant."

"Can you be a little promising? No matter how good Skydon is, it doesn't belong to you. I really consider myself the owner of Skydon. There is still a long way to go in the future, and there are so many loves between children."

"I'm not reluctant to part with Skydon, I've figured this out a long time ago."

"what is that?"

"I am reluctant to overthrow what I have done. If I leave, for example, I will do the same thing in Eka, and I will definitely compete with SKydon. I am not afraid of competition, but everything in the SKydon reference station is done by myself. Competition means that I have to abolish everything I do and replace it with a new system. I am reluctant to abolish my previous efforts.”

The angry maniac lowered his voice a lot, "It's hopeless."

"Then what should I do? Brother, is it still too late for you to change your career to study medicine? Prescribe some medicine for me."

"Top ten famous doctors can't save you even if they are alive, go back to your SKydon." The angry maniac finally attached an English sentence starting with F.

……

Shortly after Paul wrote back to John, John called Paul again.

Everyone in the workplace knows that if some content is not suitable for recording, the phone is the best way to communicate. This time the content is about Carl.

"I think it's a little strange. Carl came to China, didn't he do business development in parallel with the Chinese office? We can support, but don't need to participate. Now Carl asks us to provide a list of industry users. Will there be potential risks here? ?”

Paul pondered, "But Carl's plan is clearly supported by Steve, and we paid Horton a considerable consulting fee for this, so let's support it."

"But this is not the work of the representative office. We did it, and the future credits will be credited to Carl and Holden. But if it affects our business, Carl will not be responsible for us. This is very difficult to deal with."

"Didn't Karl want Zhang Yong to help? Just send Zhang Yong alone. Let Zhang Yong handle everything. This is our greatest support."

"What about Zhang Yong's business? After seeing his information, I am full of confidence in China's reference station business, which may be our most important growth point."

Paul sneered, "You just gave Zhang Yong a high evaluation in your email, and now it's time for me to test whether your evaluation is objective. Since you are so capable, then help Carl while handling your own business, Both sides must be done well. There is a Chinese proverb, if a horse is a good horse, you have to run it.” John, who is also a Westerner, does not think there is anything wrong with Paul’s Chinese proverb.

So on the third day after Zhang Yong was dismissed and recalled, he called Carl and went to Shanghai.

……

……

Zhang Yong doesn't like Holden, this kind of feeling is not common, it's hard for him to hate a stranger casually.Even if Tiger doesn't like him all the time, he will respect Tiger as his boss.

But this Horton gave him a very strange feeling, he seemed arrogant, he always had a superior attitude towards everyone, seeing Zhang Yong just nodded casually, and then arranged his work like Zhang Yong's boss.

Zhang Yong doesn't care about other people's arrogance, after all, there are very few people in this world who are more arrogant than Xiaowei.But he knows that Xiaowei has never been like Horton. His arrogance is mainly manifested in "directness". , and unconsciously obey.

But the usual Xiaowei is actually a very polite person, whether it is to the front desk or the cleaners, he is very polite.Even when negotiating, if the other party does not take the initiative to provoke, he will respond peacefully.He is really strong and proud, so strong that he doesn't even bother to compete with others for gains and losses. Even Skydon, which has been in business for many years, says to discard it as soon as it is discarded, without any distress.

So he felt that Horton's strength and arrogance had an unreal feeling. If a person showed off his muscles regardless of the occasion or the person, Zhang Yong remembered an adjective that his sister Zhang Hongai said, "Isn't this the second fool?"

The communication with Holden is even more so. Xiaowei has always been direct, he doesn’t care whether you like it or not, and Holden keeps going around every word, using a tactful way to avoid questions, and this so-called " The specific form of "tactfulness" is that I have a good background, and I am very familiar with the leaders they lead.

Zhang Yong felt a little uncomfortable. He felt that a person with a real background would not always talk about his background.

Horton also dislikes Zhang Yong very much.He thought that the person Karl was looking for should be a professional elite with both talent and passion, holding a prestigious university diploma, wearing a well-crafted suit, full of theories and terms that are difficult for others to understand, and eloquent and eloquent. people.

But Zhang Yong is obviously too ordinary, and he is very quiet and rarely talks.But once he opened his mouth, he was looking for the most correct answer, which made him feel like he was being tortured.

What he doesn't like the most are Zhang Yong's eyes, those eyes don't belong to the workplace at all, and they don't even belong to adults.Those eyes are too simple, and the simplicity makes people afraid, because it seems that you can use the simplest way to completely see through a person.

Holden felt a little regretful, he shouldn't have asked Karl to arrange an assistant over.He could come forward by himself, and arrange at least one of his own people to accompany Karl.

He looked at Zhang Yong, and the thought in his heart was the same as that of Master Zhao, "Where did such a monster come from?"

"Mr. Huo, I'm sorry, is your surname Huo?"

Holden was obviously displeased, "My surname is Li, please call me Holden."

"Okay, Holden. Let me ask you, this letter of visit is a letter you officially submitted through the channel of the association. I don't understand. With your relationship, why do you need to go to such trouble? We can talk to their high-level directly. Okay? As for the professional issue you mentioned, the leader may not understand technology, but he will not even know his own business. As long as we provide corresponding solutions, he will be able to introduce us to the corresponding department. Current communication In a way, I think our agent can handle it directly, and there is no need for the three of us to be here."

Horton's voice immediately raised, with a reprimanding tone, "Where is the highest level of leadership you have ever seen? You, a foreign company employee, don't understand high-level affairs or how high-level operations work. I'm using my relationship, and what you have to do is to get started through the corresponding channels. Your boss sent you here to assist Karl in his work, not to question our plan. Understand?"

"I was sent by the boss to assist Karl. You are right, but I didn't hear where you are in this sentence? I will implement Karl's plan. You can give Karl your suggestions, but you can directly talk to Karl. It seemed useless and unreasonable for me to order and get angry like this."

"Boy, do you know who you are facing? Be careful of your job in Skydon, and even more careful of your safety in Shanghai."

"Horton, we are currently in a state of cooperation. If you threaten my safety again, I will call the police now."

……

……

Karl looked at the two quarreling people in a daze. They spoke Chinese, and he didn't know what happened.

"It's okay, Carl. Holden and I have some small disputes about the order of the specific itinerary, and we will reach an agreement."

Zhang Yong turned to Holden, "You'd better be more polite, I don't want to say too much in front of Carl yet."

Holden's momentum was much weaker, maybe he wasn't the strong one, "I'm sorry, Carl, Yong is right, we had a little argument, but it will be fine. Sorry, Yong, I didn't control my temper .”

This is also the first time Karl really saw Zhang Yong, he was not too disappointed, Zhang Yong is not much different from what he imagined.Of course, he thinks that a person who can talk about freedom and dreams should be more sunny, but he can accept Zhang Yong like this.He knows that some people's sunshine is on the outside, but some people hide it in their hearts.

But Zhang Yong was a little puzzled by Karl.

The Carl in his mind is the former first global vice president of SKydon. He is mature and wise, and controls SKydon business in every corner of the world in his own hands.

He didn't understand why someone like Carl would be influenced by Holden.But in his opinion, Horton was far from wise.

An unpleasant exchange, without the expected result, the three agreed to continue the discussion the next day, and then went back to their rooms.

Just as Zhang Yong entered his room, the phone in the room rang, and he answered it with Horton's voice.

"I'm still in the seat just now, you come down, we need to communicate alone."
