Rebirth 08: Rise from copycat phones

Chapter 476: Newcomer to Manager Dong’s Office: Xi Wanqing
It is early July in Shenzhen and the weather has become very hot. Even outdoors during the day, you can feel the heat wave under the sun.

However, there was no heat at all in the office building of Zhiyun Group's headquarters. In fact, due to the powerful central air-conditioning, the temperature inside the building even seemed a little cool.

Xi Wanqing came out of a sea-blue SLMC in the basement, but after entering the elevator, she felt a chill and immediately put on the black coat draped over her wrist.

On her first day at work, she was inexperienced and did not bring a coat with her, but she was exposed to the cold air conditioning all day.

So she learned her lesson from the next day. Even though the sun was shining brightly outside, she would bring a thin suit jacket with her.

After entering the elevator, it slowly went up and people came in one after another. After passing the first floor, the elevator did not stop and went all the way up to the 46th floor. Only after reaching the 46th floor did employees from Liuhe Investment get out of the elevator.

This is the employee elevator exclusively for Liuhe Investment, and it only stops in the basement, first floor, and above the 46th floor.

Xi Wanqing continued to the 48th floor before going out with several other colleagues!
However, Xi Wanqing had just started working and didn't know many people in the company, so it was difficult for her to say hello or anything like that, so she followed the crowd out of the elevator and walked forward in her black high heels.

Although men and women in the company dress similarly, men almost all wear shirts and ties, and some even wear vests or jackets, while women wear women's suits, or some more dignified and professional dresses.

However, when Xi Wanqing walked out of the elevator, she could still sense that many of her male colleagues would take a few more glances at her...

Even though she was wearing the same professional attire as her other female colleagues, Xi Wanqing's beautiful figure and delicate facial features still made her very conspicuous in the crowd. People who didn't know her might even think she was a vase.

And Xi Wanqing was too lazy to explain it!
Xi Wanqing, who holds a Ph.D. from Peking University and Tsinghua University and studied under the country's top economics professors, is not just a vase in the eyes of many people. She is a top elite in the field of economics.

This was also the core reason why she was able to successfully defeat a large number of competitors after graduating with a doctorate and eventually join the chairman's office of Liuhe Investment Co., Ltd. as the chairman's assistant...

There are many beautiful vases in the world, but it is hard to find a top economics elite like her among millions of people!
Walking forward and passing the ordinary offices on the outer layer, Xi Wanqing entered the most core area on the 48th floor: the office area of ​​the chairman's office.

After entering the office area of ​​the chairman's office, Xi Wanqing met the new colleagues she had met over the past few days.

After greeting a few new colleagues, Xi Wanqing walked towards her office. As soon as she entered the office, a young girl working in the office's outpatient department stood up and greeted her, "Assistant Xi, good morning!"

Xi Wanqing smiled and said, "Good morning, Xiaofang!"

Afterwards, Xiaofang pushed open the office door first. After Xi Wanqing walked in, Xiaofang followed in with a tablet computer.

"Assistant Xi, the Smart Terminal Business Department has re-made a copy of the smart terminal market analysis report for the southwest region that you requested yesterday. They said it has been sent to your company email!"

"Also, when I came up just now, I happened to take the elevator with Secretary Du from Director Amuro's office. He said that Director Amuro would use this analysis report from the smart terminal in the afternoon!"

"The head of the royal family just called and asked you to go to his office at half past ten!"

"Also, Assistant Dong Gao is about to be transferred out of town, and the office said they're going to hold a farewell party for him tonight!"

After Xi Wanqing walked to the desk and sat down, Xiaofang placed the brewed coffee next to her!

Xi Wanqing asked: "Anything else?"

Xiaofang said, "That's all for now. I'm going to go out to work first!"

Xi Wanqing said: "Go!"

After the secretary left, Xi Wanqing turned on the computer and started working!
As the chairman's assistant, she has a lot of daily work to do. She needs to assist Xu Shenxue in handling many daily work matters under the guidance of the office director and deputy director.

Liuhe Investment Co., Ltd. is the parent company of a large number of companies including Zhiyun Group, Hailan Automobile, Weiku Electronics, and Weiku Industry. It is a key company under the control of Xu Shenxue.

For such a core and key enterprise, the chairman's office is also the most important department, with a wide range of affairs to deal with.

After processing several documents, Xi Wanqing raised her head and relaxed slightly, but looking at the many documents waiting to be processed, she couldn't help but sigh.

This job has many advantages, including a good working environment, a high platform, and amazing salary. She just graduated and joined the company, and her starting salary reached over 800,000.

With an annual salary of more than 800,000 yuan, he is only a newcomer among the assistants in the office of the chairman of Liuhe Investment.

As long as Xi Wanqing can do her job well and does not make any mistakes, she will basically have an annual salary of one million in a year.

Not to mention the chairman's assistants, even the secretaries like Xiaofang who serve the chairman's assistants have a high annual salary.

Xi Wanqing's current income level is considered a white-collar level even in a top first-tier city like Shenzhen.

However, Xi Wanqing values ​​the platform of the Chairman's Office more than the conventional salary and benefits.

Liuhe Investment is not just an investment company, but the parent company of a series of giant enterprises including Zhiyun Group, Wecoo Electronics, Wecoo Industry, Wecoo Trading, Yihai Technology, Hailan Automobile, Nanmen Aerospace, and Huaxing Technology.

At the same time, the Chairman's Office in Liuhe Investment is the core department that directly assists Xu Shenxue in handling many affairs of the affiliated companies.

This means that these assistants have access to the top of the industry chain, which is of great benefit to their experience, vision, and even network growth.

After working in the chairman's office for a few years and gaining Xu Shenxue's recognition, you will have the opportunity to be sent to work in some of its core subsidiaries... and not as an ordinary employee, but as a senior manager.

For someone like Xi Wanqing, who is currently at the M5 level, if everything goes well she will be promoted to M6 in a few years, and then to M7 before being transferred out. The M7 level is already the deputy director of the Zhiyun Group, and she can serve as the general manager of almost all subsidiaries.

Even if you go to the Zhiyun Group headquarters, you can be responsible for a single business.

With such a high starting point at the M7 level, if one performs well, one can quickly climb up to M8 or even M9 and become the management of an important subsidiary or the head of a department at the group headquarters.

In the future, there is even hope to become M10 or even M11, which is the level of group vice president or group senior vice president...that is a true top business tycoon.

Of course, this is when one has outstanding abilities and good luck.

If your ability is not up to par, or if you are particularly unlucky, then you may not be able to climb up from the bottom.

In this case, the human resources management department of Liuhe Investment will think that the training potential of the management is limited, and will give up on this person and will no longer arrange special promotions or training opportunities for him/her... How he/she will do in the future depends on himself/herself.

If you are unlucky, you may even be sent to an ordinary subsidiary to "retire" after a few years...

Liuhe Investment has so many companies under its umbrella, and each of these companies has a large number of subsidiaries. However, not all subsidiaries are important and promising. In fact, most of them are just ordinary.

For these elites who were selected from the best and promoted very quickly in the early stages and worked in core enterprises or Liuhe Investment in the early stages, working in these ordinary subsidiaries is a huge gap.

Especially for the assistants who came out of the chairman's office, being sent to work in these ordinary subsidiaries is no different from being exiled.

Xi Wanqing is a typical example. She was at the M5 level when she first joined the company. If everything goes well, she will be promoted to M6 in about two years. If there is a possibility of being transferred to another company later, she will be promoted to M7... Although it is only three levels in a few years, for most of the middle and low-level managers of Xu Shenxue's companies, it will take them a lifetime to make it.

The reason why Xi Wanqing has the potential to be promoted so quickly in the future is that the Chairman's Office of Liuhe Investment has undertaken certain tasks in training senior management and will formulate special training and promotion routes for some of the outstanding talents therein.

This is also the reason why positions in the Liuhe Investment Chairman’s Office can attract top talent… promotions are fast and the starting point for outposting is high!

This is one of the shortcuts to the senior management of Xu Group!

However, it is not easy to enter the office of the chairman of Liuhe Investment. The office only recruits a single digit number of new people a year, and does not recruit externally. Instead, it invites specific people to participate in interviews.

If you are not a top elite, basically don’t count on it!

Xi Wanqing was able to join the team not because of her figure and appearance, but because of her solid professional ability. Only in this way could she become one of the more than 30 assistants in the office of the chairman of Liuhe Investment, and a very rare female assistant.

There are actually not many female employees in the chairman's office. Most of them are men, including many assistants' secretaries. Women are relatively rare. These few female employees are mostly secretaries to the assistants and ordinary administrative clerks.

Among the core assistant positions, only two are women, and Xi Wanqing is one of them.

In a male-dominated workplace, it is not easy even for Xi Wanqing to get the position of assistant to the chairman. To some extent, she needs to work harder than her male competitors and have greater advantages to be selected.

Not only because she is a woman, but also because she is so beautiful...

In such a high-end workplace, it is not a good thing for women to be too beautiful. This can easily lead to people mistaking it for a flower screen and questioning their ability. Xi Wanqing processed the accumulated documents on hand, especially the domestic market analysis report of smart terminals, and then sent it to the internal software mailbox of Deputy Director An through the company's self-developed office communication software.

This is the most important task she has received since she started working in the past few days, which is to collect, organize and analyze reports on the domestic smart terminal market. It is not only about analyzing and organizing existing data, but also about predicting market conditions in the coming year based on various situations.

Although there is cooperation from many departments, she does not have to do many things herself and can just send task requirements to subordinate departments. However, it is still a big challenge for her, especially since this is the first important task since she joined the company, and she personally attaches great importance to it.

To some extent, this analysis report is a test to prove my ability to my boss.

At the same time, Xi Wanqing was also holding back her anger. In the past few days, she had seen suspicion in the eyes of many of her colleagues!
She wants to prove herself that she is not just a pretty face and that she got in through the interview based on her real abilities!

Now, after several days of hard work, she finally managed to organize the report, which made her feel relieved.

After finishing her work, she saw that it was almost half past ten, so she immediately got up and walked out, and then came to the office of the head of the royal family not far away.

The office of the head of the royal family is much larger than the office of their ordinary chairman's assistant. There are several secretaries' desks outside, as well as a small sofa and a coffee table.

The secretary of the Wang family director immediately stood up and greeted her: "Assistant Xi, please wait a moment. The director is still meeting with guests inside. Come, sit here for a while. What would you like to drink? Tea? Or coffee?"

Xi Wanqing naturally wouldn't put on airs in front of the secretary of the head of the royal family, and immediately said with a smile: "I just came here early after finishing my work. Sister Na, don't bother making tea, I just had coffee and came here!"

Sister Na, the secretary of the head of the royal family, was a woman in her thirties. After hearing this, she chuckled and said, "This tea was prepared in advance. It's not a big deal!"

As she spoke, she had already poured a cup of tea and placed it on the small coffee table.

Seeing this, Xi Wanqing did not delay any longer and said, "Thank you, Sister Na!"

After sitting for two or three minutes, the door of the Royal Chief's office opened and a man in his thirties came out. He smiled and nodded to Xi Wanqing, "Assistant Xi!"

Xi Wanqing stood up and said, "Assistant Dong Gao, hello!"

Xi Wanqing recognized this man. He was Assistant Dong Gao, who was rumored to be transferred to a new post in the office.

I heard from Xiaofang that this person has been working in the office for three years. He was promoted to senior assistant last year. Now he has the opportunity to be transferred to a core company like Zhiyun Group, and he will be the group deputy director at the M7 level. Although the specific position is still unknown, it is likely that he will take up a management position in a certain department.

No wonder this guy has a smiling face when he meets everyone these days!

Assistant Dong Gao said hello and left. At this time, Sister Na took two steps forward and said, "Assistant Xi, you can go in!"

Afterwards, Xi Wanqing walked into the office and saw a middle-aged man who was estimated to be in his forties. This man was the director of the chairman's office. He was not an ordinary person, but a senior management at the M10 level.

On weekdays, when Xu Shenxue attended some public occasions, this royal head would always follow him. Sometimes when the news reported on Xu Shenxue, he could often be seen standing behind Xu Shenxue.

The head of the royal family looked up at her at this time, and then said, "Assistant Xi, please sit down. Can you adapt to the work these days?"

After Xi Wanqing sat down, she said, "The other seniors in the company also gave me a lot of guidance, which benefited me a lot. Although the work is not easy, I can adapt to it!"

The head of the royal family said, "Well, that's good. We don't have many people in the office. There are only about 20 assistants at most. The work on weekdays is quite busy. You have to be mentally prepared for this!"

"Besides, you have passed the adaptation period in the past few days. What do you think about the specific work assignment?"

The chairman's office is the core secretarial department that assists Xu Shenxue in handling many daily affairs. There are many types of business that are dealt with, and the assistants' abilities and energy are limited, so there is no model of taking on everything, but each assistant is in charge of a part of the business.

Xi Wanqing said: "I can do it myself. I will follow the company's arrangements!"

The head of the royal family said, "Well, you are in the economic field. Logically, it would be more appropriate to arrange for you to be in charge of the financial and economic field. However, there are already two people in the financial and economic field, so it is difficult to arrange another one. Xiao Dong will be assigned to work outside tomorrow. Part of the business he is in charge of is in the field of smart terminal business. How about you take over the smart terminal business first?"

"I just took a quick look at the domestic market analysis and forecast report for smart terminals you compiled. It's pretty good!"

"Of course, if you have any concerns, we can discuss it again. It's also OK if you want to do some other business. Don't have to feel any psychological burden!"

As soon as Xi Wanqing heard this, she understood why she was assigned to prepare a domestic market analysis report for smart terminals as soon as she started working. It turned out that this was waiting for her.

Come to think of it, Manager Dong's office doesn't recruit people every day. He only recruits people when there are vacancies in the assistant positions. And considering that Senior Assistant Dong is about to be transferred out, it is natural to recruit someone in advance to take over some of his business.

She immediately said, "No problem on my part. I am also quite interested in the smart terminal sector. When I was studying for my doctorate, I also conducted detailed research and analysis on the smart terminal industry."

The head of the royal family said: "If that's the case, then it's settled. I'll notify everyone later!"

"You need to work harder these days and make good use of the time to familiarize yourself with the company's business, not only the smart terminal business of Zhiyun Group, but also the smart terminal OEM business of Weiku Electronics and Weiku Industrial. You need to familiarize yourself quickly and get started as soon as possible."

After saying this, the head of the royal family raised his head and quickly glanced at Xi Wanqing, then said, "Three days, is that enough?"

Xi Wanqing said: "Three days is enough!"

It was just memorizing information to understand the situation. This kind of rote memorization was very easy for her. Three days was enough!

For the next three days, Xi Wanqing would read the company's documents even when she was eating or going to the toilet. After get off work, she would go home and study the documents until very late.

However, she has good memory, reading comprehension, and is sensitive to numbers, so after three days she was able to read through a large amount of information and gain a preliminary understanding of the situation.

On the fourth day, she had just arrived at work when the head of the royal family called her into the office: "How have you been reading the materials these days? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Xi Wanqing said: "I took a quick look at the information on each part and I can barely understand it. There are some difficulties, but I will try my best to overcome them and continue to strengthen my study and research in the next few days!"

The head of the royal family said: "Well, now that you have understood almost everything, then follow me on the field mission later!"

"President Xu is going to Guangcheng to attend a technology summit later. You should come with him. Remember to ask your secretary to prepare various materials in the field of smart terminals. President Xu may ask about them!"

"Well, we'll leave at ten o'clock, go get ready!"

Xi Wanqing was slightly stunned when she heard this!
You know, she has been working for seven or eight days, but she has never been to Xu Shenxue's office area. She also studies various materials in the office every day and rarely comes out. Therefore, she has never seen Xu Shenxue so far.

Xu Shenxue’s private elevator is right next to his office, and the parking area is also a private area. He comes into contact with ordinary employees even when he goes to and from get off work.

Even the employees in the chairman's office can't see Xu Shenxue every day!

But now, the head of the royal family said that he would take her with Xu Shenxue on a business trip to Guangcheng later, which made her feel somewhat surprised and even expectant.

Like many people, she is very curious about her boss Xu Shenxue!
This is the richest man in the world, and he is the richest man in the world who founded many giant companies!
Although it is well known that Xu Shenxue is also a second-generation rich man, the assets he had before his rise, compared with his current achievements, are no different from starting from scratch.

The most important thing is Xu Shenxue’s significant achievements and influence in many high-tech fields!
Some people who like to play games even think that whether they can play the virtual helmet games described in online novels in this life depends on whether Xu Shenxue is good enough.

Some people also believe that whether humans can truly go to the starry sky and establish a human base in space in the next few decades will also depend on Xu Shenxue.

Putting aside some of the opinions of outsiders, as an assistant in the office of the chairman of Liuhe Investment, Xi Wanqing knew very well how great the influence of her boss was!

Facing such a person, it would be a lie to say that I am not curious!
And she will soon be able to see him and even go on business trips with him!
For a moment, she was actually looking forward to it!

But Xi Wanqing was not an ordinary person. Although she was somewhat curious and even expectant, she remained calm: "Okay, I understand. I will go back and prepare the relevant documents and materials."

After leaving the Royal Head's office, Xi Wanqing did not return to her office immediately, but went to the bathroom to calm down for a while.

Then she returned to her office. After returning to the office, she told Xiaofang to get ready and go on a business trip to Guangcheng with her later!

It was almost ten o'clock when Xi Wanqing brought Xiaofang, a laptop computer, a tablet computer and other office supplies that might be needed to the third floor of the basement.

She looked around and saw that it wasn't just Director Wang and herself who were on the business trip with Director Xu. There were also more than a dozen other people, including several assistants in Director Xu's office and people from other departments.

After they waited in Xu Shenxue's exclusive elevator for more than ten minutes, they saw the elevator door open and seven or eight people came out. Xi Wanqing saw Xu Shenxue, who was standing in the middle at the back.

The first time she saw Xu Shenxue, she felt that her boss was much younger than he looked in the news, and didn't look like a man in his thirties at all!
