Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

Michelle agreed, then turned and walked towards Guan Juer, who was busy at the printer not far away. She patted her shoulder and whispered, "Xiao Guan, the manager is calling you!"

"The manager is calling me? But I haven't finished copying yet. Do you know what the manager wants to talk to me about..."

Guan Juer, who was still unclear about the situation, picked up the document that needed to be copied and asked in confusion.

Michelle glanced at Guan Juer sheepishly, took the documents from her hand and said, "Come over here quickly, I'll make a copy for you!"

"Okay, thanks Michelle!"

Guan Juer walked towards the manager not far away, not knowing why, and did not forget to thank Michelle who helped her copy the documents.

But Michelle didn't answer, she just lowered her head.

Guan Juer didn't notice anything wrong. She walked to Manager Li's desk and asked carefully:

"Manager, Michelle said you were looking for me, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Manager Li looked up at Guan Juer and threw Michelle's plan to her with a serious face.

Without waiting for Guan Juer to finish reading, he pointed at the information and criticized directly: "Tell me, how did you check it?

"Didn't they notice such a huge mistake? If the original data is wrong, all the subsequent work will be in vain. If this plan is submitted, the company will lose money, but it will make the customer question our ability. Who will be held responsible?"

Guan Juer did not respond immediately, but read the information carefully, then looked at Manager Li innocently and explained quickly:

"Manager, this case was originally Michelle's. She said she was sick that afternoon, so I took it over. She was the one who made the mistake!"

"I don't care about you guys. Since you've taken over, you should do your best. I just want to ask you one question: who signed the final signature?"

Manager Li ignored the problems between Guan Juer and Michelle and directly questioned her about the final result.

Guan Juer had indeed signed the document herself, so she couldn't refute it. She replied a little aggrievedly, "I signed it, but..."

"Since you signed it, doesn't the company have a rule that no matter who signs, they must double-check before signing to avoid any mistakes? Does it have such a rule?"

"have…!"

"Since you know the rules very well, then who are you going to show your grievance to?"

Looking at Guan Juer, who looked like a bullied young wife, Manager Li was furious and started to scold her:

"Tell me, how did you check it? We're a Fortune 500 company, and our strength lies in our workmanship and service.

The reason why we charge so much more than others is because we do not allow this kind of mistake to happen. If we all work like you, what is the difference between us and other companies?

Why do customers choose us? Because we can provide customers with professional and correct feedback. The company will never allow such mistakes to affect the interests of customers, do you understand? "

"knew…"

"That's good to know. Now, no matter what you're doing, you must stop, write a written self-criticism, and reflect on your work!"

"Ok!"

Guan Juer nodded, and her eyes unconsciously turned red.

"Hey, be more careful next time!"

Seeing Guan Juer had already started to wipe away tears, Manager Li sighed and said in a slightly slower tone:

"I have apologized to the customer and asked them to give us two more days.

You must check it carefully for me in the next two days and complete this plan carefully. There can't be any more problems. Got it?"

Hearing that the manager had secured an opportunity for her with the client, Guan Juer looked at Manager Li in surprise and replied with a choked voice:

"Thank you, Manager. I...I understand. I'll definitely check it carefully when I get back!"

Hearing this, Manager Li nodded, handed her the information, and said helplessly:

"Take it back now and reflect on your mistakes. I'm so busy all day I don't have time to clean up your mess all the time!"

"I'm sorry, manager. I understand. I'll go back and write my apology!"

"Okay, learn from this lesson. No matter what the situation, you have to be serious when it comes to work. All the leaders care about is the results. Go!"

"Um…"

After nodding slightly, Guan Juer wiped her tears and walked back to her desk with the problematic plan.

In fact, Guan Juer also knew that she was the one who signed the document and she had the responsibility.

The reason why she still felt aggrieved was that her leader knew that it was not her who made the mistake, but still blamed her, and Michelle did not stand up to explain at this time.

She just wanted to help Michelle at the time, but she didn't expect that the matter would eventually turn into something that she had to take responsibility for, and she was put in a situation where she couldn't speak out her pain.

In fact, she didn't understand that she could have rejected her colleague's request at that time, because everyone's working time and energy are limited. When you haven't finished your own work, easily agreeing to help others is irresponsible to yourself.

At this time, the other interns in the office looked at Michelle who was silent, and then looked at Guan Juer who came back with tears on her face and a look of grievance. No one stepped forward to talk to them, but just whispered a few words and then continued to work.

Only Ye Zi and Song Nuan came online to comfort Guan Juer. Song Nuan also offered to help her check the files for errors after she was done with her work, and try to finish it within a day or two.

Song Nuan also specifically reminded her to be more careful and not always be a nice person. She should learn to say no and not help with everything.

Chapter 197 Meeting Tan Zongming

At 3:30 in the afternoon, Han Tao, who had just finished the senior partners' meeting, had already left the company because Tan Zongming, the head of Shengxuan Group, had already greeted him and invited him to his home for tea.

This was a case source rewarded by the system. After receiving the memory arranged by the system, Han Tao also learned that his predecessor had met Tan Zongming and had communicated with him many times by phone.

Now it has been some time since he returned to Shanghai. Jingyan's work has been basically sorted out, and it is indeed time to meet with Lao Tan. Coincidentally, he also wanted to meet this asset tycoon in Shanghai, so he accepted the invitation and went.

Yang Dongxu drove the BMW 7 Series that the system later rewarded him, crossed countless streets, and drove for a full hour before finally arriving at a private luxury villa area with green trees.

During this period, Han Tao talked to Wendy on the phone and learned that people who can live here are not just rich.

For people in Shanghai, to be able to purchase real estate here, they must at least be important leaders in various industries. In other words, in addition to being rich, they must also have a certain status.

Moreover, each villa here occupies a very large area. My eldest brother He Han’s villa at OCT Courtyard No. 10, which is worth more than 100 million yuan, has been to the predecessor many times.

So it was already very big in Han Tao's memory, but this place is almost twice as big as that one, truly achieving absolute privacy.

When Han Tao's car arrived at the place, Tan Zongming, who had short hair, wore a blue casual suit with a white T-shirt inside, and looked very energetic and exuded an aristocratic temperament, was already waiting at the door.

The two had met before at Tan Zongming's company and had communicated on the phone many times, so they were quite familiar with each other.

Seeing him waiting for him at the door, Han Tao stepped forward politely and said, "Mr. Tan, I'm sorry to trouble you to wait in person."

"Han Lu, let's not be polite. I know you just returned to Daomo City and have a lot of work to do!"

After saying that, Tan Zongming stretched out his hand with a smile on his face and shook hands with Han Tao.

Han Tao quickly said politely, "Thank you, Mr. Tan, for your understanding. I didn't expect to be faced with such a difficult case right after taking over the work of the law firm and Jingyan Group. This has delayed my visit!"

"You're welcome, Han Lu. Don't be so distant between friends. Just call me Lao Tan!"

After saying that, Tan Zongming extended his hand and walked side by side with Han Tao towards the villa, saying as they walked:

“Speaking of work, I never expected Han Yu to be such a hidden talent!

I used a lot of connections to get Red Star's equity information, and now I know that you are now the third largest shareholder of Red Star. Is this a surprise you prepared for me?"

"Don't say that. Nothing in the Magic City can be hidden from Mr. Tan's eyes. This is just a special case.

The Red Star Group shares I hold all belong to my grandfather. He's been too lazy to worry about it these past two years, and since I'm back in Shanghai for work, he let me take over. I didn't mean to hide this from you."

"It's ok!"

Tan Zongming shook his head, indicating that it was nothing, and then he sighed, "I never thought that Mr. He from Red Star was actually your grandfather. It's really a coincidence. It turns out that there is such a fate between us!"

"Mr. Tan, I won't beat around the bush. This matter really happened suddenly. If you or the Shengyuan Group board of directors feel it's inappropriate, I can completely recuse myself or let another lawyer take over the case. After all, such an emergency caught me off guard!"

"That's unnecessary. I completely trust your professional ethics. And Han Lu, the board of directors and I have all been familiar with your information. You will do your best and fulfill your responsibilities in every case you take on in Handong and Kyoto, and you will never sacrifice your personal interests for the sake of public service.

Therefore, the board of directors and I have no objection to you taking over the company's legal affairs. As for the Red Star acquisition, I'm sorry to bother you with your attention!"

"Mr. Tan, you're too polite. I've discussed the issue of Shengxuan acquiring Hongxing with my grandfather, and the majority of shareholders, as well as us, are in favor of it!"

"Also, I understand that Shengxuan's focus and foundation in recent years has been on home appliances. From this perspective, acquiring an established company like Hongxing is a must."

"This is a mutually beneficial solution. Although the Red Star Group has been in a downturn in recent years, its brand recognition is very high among the older generation.

If the merger of the two companies is successful, not only will Hongxing be reborn, but it will also help to further enhance the brand awareness of Shengxuan in China."

"Han Lu, great minds think alike. It seems that you are the most suitable person to lead this case. After all, this is a merger and acquisition worth tens of billions of dollars, and the board of directors attaches great importance to it. With your support, Shengxuan can alleviate a lot of financial pressure."

Tan Zongming looked at Han Tao in surprise, then continued:

"That's why I just said you gave me a surprise. Hongxing is, after all, an old state-owned enterprise. Apart from the investment business, Hongxing and Shengxuan are of similar size. It's not easy to complete the merger and acquisition, but with a nod from you as a major shareholder, it will be much easier!

I'm actually under a lot of pressure. Although Shengxuan has been developing year after year in recent years, in reality, if it doesn't make progress, it will regress. Any wrong decision could lead to a disaster. Therefore, the acquisition of Hongxing is a must. Of course, you, as the chief legal advisor, are also indispensable!"

Hearing this, Han Tao jokingly replied, "Since Mr. Tan trusts me so much and has been so thorough in his words, I, the newly appointed Chief Legal Counsel, must devote myself to this matter until my death!"

"Hahaha, Han Lu, let's not be polite. We are both partners and friends, and we are not completely superiors and subordinates at work, so this is serious!"

Amidst laughter, the relationship between Han Tao and Tan Zongming became closer. They talked as they walked, and five minutes later they walked into a reception room.

Today is a private salon held by Tan Zongming, so there are quite a few people in the banquet hall. Those gathered are all elites in the financial circle and heads of many well-known companies.

After all, Han Tao had just returned to Shanghai and still needed to slowly build up his network of contacts. This was a good opportunity for him to get acquainted with everyone.

Tan Zongming also wanted to improve the relationship between the two and introduced Han Tao to many of Shengxuan's partners and friends with whom he had a good relationship.

At this moment, Han Tao had a more intuitive understanding of Tan Zongming, a legendary figure in the business world of Shanghai. He was a smooth and sophisticated man, with a touch of boldness in his worldly affairs. Of course, he was also a typical businessman.

Therefore, Han Tao readily accepted Tan Zongming's kindness, because this is a society where relationships are important, and whether at home or abroad, one's circle determines one's achievements and development.

After a round of greetings and exchanges, Tan Zongming whispered a few words to the people around him, then led Han Tao to the rest area not far away and said:

"Han Lu, I've invited a friend over today. She's the CFO I hired from Wall Street. She's the one who pulled the trigger on the merger and acquisition. I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce you to her!"

"Okay, after hearing your introduction, I'm really looking forward to meeting this friend you mentioned!"

As soon as Tan Zongming said this, Han Tao guessed that he must be talking about Andy, so he smiled and nodded, and followed him without asking anything.

.........

Chapter 198 It’s too late to meet

Han Tao's guess was correct. When he and Tan Zongming arrived at the rest area, he saw Andy sitting on the sofa with his cell phone.

Seeing this, Tan Zongming stepped forward and shouted:

"Andy, is it convenient for you? The friend I told you about is here, let's meet him!"

Hearing this, Andy put down her work and looked up to check the situation. When she saw Han Tao next to Tan Zongming, she said in surprise: "Han Lu, why are you here too?

The friend that Lao Tan wants to introduce to me isn't you, right? Didn't you say before that you didn't know Lao Tan? "

After saying that, Andy looked at Han Tao and Tan Zongming. She helped Qu Xiaoxiao until after three in the morning yesterday, so she actually planned to rest today.

But early in the morning, Old Tan called and said that there was a salon at home today and wanted her to come and join in.

Originally she wanted to refuse because she really didn't like this kind of socializing, but Lao Tan said that he would bring her to meet the chief legal advisor he had hired, saying that this person was an important breakthrough point in the acquisition of Red Star, so Andy came.

But she never expected that the great lawyer that Old Tan mentioned, the so-called important breakthrough point, turned out to be Han Tao, the enthusiastic neighbor, with whom she had admired their working rapport last night.

Han Tao smiled slightly and replied, "Hello Andy, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. It turns out that the old Tan you always mention is actually Mr. Tan!"

Tan Zongming was puzzled. Andy had just returned to China not long ago, and Han Tao had also recently returned to Shanghai. How could the two know each other? They seemed quite familiar with each other, so he asked curiously:

"Andy, Han Lu, it seems like you two knew each other before?"

"Old Tan, Han Lu and I are neighbors. He lives upstairs from me. Last night we even helped another neighbor give a report together!"

Andy stroked his forehead and couldn't help but sigh in response.

"It's really a coincidence. In recent interactions, Andy has mentioned Lao Tan many times.

I've known her for a long time, and I was planning to ask her to introduce us, but I didn't expect her to be right in front of me..."

After Han Tao finished speaking, Tan Zongming looked at the two of them and said with understanding, "So that's how it is. This is really fate!

I was originally worried about whether Andy would be able to accept a new partner. Now that you two are already familiar with each other, that's great. Can I rest assured now?"

After that, Tan Zongming continued to ask with some doubts before Han Tao and Andy responded:

"But there's one thing I'm curious about. With Han Lu's wealth and status, how could he live in a neighborhood like Ode to Joy?"

"Haha, Mr. Tan, I don't agree with what you said. Andy is the elite you hired back from Wall Street. If she can live in Ode to Joy, why can't I?"

Han Tao smiled slightly, looked at Andy, and responded in a joking tone.
