Weather on Sunday, October 14: Stormy and rainy

—————————

I got up listlessly from Sue's treatment chair, and Sue immediately went to get her account book. I saw that she wrote on it, "It is conservatively estimated that 7-15 more treatments will be needed, and the consultation fee is 5,800 yuan." I smiled reluctantly: "Remember it, remember it. Anyway, now I don't itch when I have too many lice, and I don't have to worry about too many debts." Su ignored me, chewed the penholder and thought for a while, then added "October 13 One glass was broken in the evening, worth 32 yuan."

I am speechless. I, a person with millions of debts, am still afraid that you will charge me a cup of money? !

The tragedy began in late September.

The news that ac has acquired a subsidiary of its peer Juhe Group has been a major news in the financial market in the past two years. Finally, the acquisition negotiations have entered the final and most critical stage. The legal department has begun to follow up on various merger and acquisition activities from top to bottom. Working overtime day and night, I was so busy.

During lunch, Luoluo only had time to grab me and complain: "Xiaobei, I'm so busy that I've forgotten what it's like to sleep." Then she was called away again.

I envy how busy she is. The work of the assistant to the president is also very busy, but subconsciously I have always felt that this is a temporary position, and I will eventually return to the legal department to do my beloved law. So, I applied to Yi Fan to be temporarily transferred back to the legal department for help. The reason was very grand, "for the benefit of the company, and to work side by side with my colleagues for the development of the company at critical moments."

Yi Fan readily agreed and said: Do it well.

I made a passionate fist pump to him.

He also said, don’t forget your job.

I just go to work. Returning to the legal department, I quickly joined the busy front line of work. Lawyers are really ruthless, treating themselves and others like animals.

A few days later, I realized that what Yi Fan said "don't forget your job" was not about mergers and acquisitions, but... his blind date!

In fact, when the project has reached this stage, the main negotiation work has been completed, and we are waiting for the legal department to prepare various documents and submit them to representatives of both parties for signature. So compared to us, Yi Fan is very free. When he has time, he drinks tea and watches us busy, and comes to annoy me when he gets tired of sitting.

More than once, he called me when I was in a hurry and asked slowly: "Oh, someone from the dating website called me and said that there is a pretty good girl. Let me go and meet her." Or when I was holding a girl in my arms, he called me. While stacking materials half as tall as a person, I complained: "Why are you so slow to answer the phone? If you are late next time, your salary will be deducted."

I became more and more impatient, and King Kong's face became darker and darker.

King Kong is the manager of the legal department. He lives up to his name, and his personality is as strong and powerful as his name. He can't tolerate sand in his eyes and rarely smiles at people. Yi Fan respects him. When he saw that I frequently took irrelevant calls, he said, "Guan Xiaobei, no matter who he is, tell him to take the time to resolve the irrelevant matters." I nodded repeatedly. I knew this was his most tolerant reminder of me. He would try again next time. It was definitely not this attitude when he spoke. But boss, can you be so mean to the CEO? How can I, a little soldier, make irresponsible remarks about the CEO's boredom

This afternoon, King Kong called us to a meeting. And Yi Fan kept calling my phone. Although it was set to silent, it still distracted me because I was waiting for an important call and couldn't turn off the phone. My frequent checking of my phone caught King Kong's attention. He paused the meeting and said he would give me three minutes to solve the problem, otherwise I would not appear in the conference room again.

I have always suspected that Yi Fan was monitoring me through the camera. Otherwise, how could he always call me when I was most busy

Sure enough, I heard him say: "Turn left and go five steps forward. There is a camera there. Come on, smile, eggplant."

"Yi Fan, please stop your boring behavior! Does this company belong to you?! We work desperately for you, just for your fun?" I was really angry.

Yi Fan said softly: "Xiaobei, actually I want to tell you not to be so nervous. You can also tell King Kong and tell him to relax too."

Relax? King Kong now explodes when touched.

I glared hard at the camera and turned back.

Just half an hour into the meeting, I received a series of calls from the president’s office.

I rushed out the door without King Kong's approval, rushed under the camera, raised my middle finger, and yelled into the phone: "Damn, your second uncle's business is not over yet."

After shouting, I woke up.

I, an extremely unlikely event happened again, and I still faced the president...

There was a bit of silence on the other end of the line, but there was no angry voice that I expected. For a long time, I heard a voice with poor Chinese say: "Haha, Ms. Guan, I am man. Just now Yi and I were discussing the attitude of Chinese and American employees towards leadership. I said that American employees are much more casual than Chinese employees. They are older." Most of the time, Chinese employees dare to speak out and even argue with their bosses. As a result, Yi said, that's not necessarily the case. There are also employees in China who dare to scold their bosses. We made a bet on this matter. Now I lost. Ha ha."

Man is the boss of a foreign shareholder of ac and has a good relationship with Yi Fan. It is said that his shares in ac are represented by Yi Fan. I met him once from a distance, a typical American uncle... but I didn't realize he was so boring.

However, I actually pointed my middle finger at the shareholders and swore... Su was right, I was mentally unstable.

I hung up the phone frustratedly. Sure enough, when I went back, King Kong scolded me in public, his words were so sharp and so cruel that I felt so ashamed that I wanted to die.

The state of trance, nervousness, depression, and anxiety lasted for the entire merger and acquisition period. Even when the presidents of AC and Juhe signed the merger and acquisition contract, shook hands, took photos, sprayed ribbons and opened champagne, and everyone had a relaxed smile on their face, I was still tense. a string.

I think at that moment, somewhere in my heart, I realized that a trouble I had caused was coming to the surface.

About a week after the merger was successful, Yi Fan held a meeting to summarize the merger. I was put on the sidelines to show the slides.

Halfway through the meeting, King Kong rushed in from outside.

"Guan Xiaobei!" He roared loudly in the conference room, and then quickly crossed the crowd and came to me, holding a stack of contracts in his hand and shaking them in front of me, "Look, look! What have you done! "

A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, a source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org

I didn't know what this meant, but my mind was still buzzing and my mind was completely black.

King Kong's hand continued to twitch, and for a moment, I even thought he was going to slap the stack of papers in my face.

Yi Fan stopped King Kong: "Lao Jin, Lao Jin, calm down."

Lao Jin looked at me with the look in his eyes like a parent looking at a child. He finally threw the pile of papers on the table in front of me and turned around to leave. Yi Fan followed and left, and everyone else filed out.

Finally, I stood alone and confused in the conference room. I was surprised to find that my brain hadn't exploded.

At that time, I thought, Yi Fan, it was all a misunderstanding when you came back and told me that everything was fine. Yi Fan, why didn’t you look at me from beginning to end? Humph, that's ridiculous.

Finally, I sat down and looked through the information King Kong threw at me. Where I went wrong was highlighted in glaring red, like a death banner.

I committed the famous tragedy caused by decimal points - I added an extra zero to the bid price per share. The later financial software's automatic calculation based on this made all the data increase tenfold. To put it this way, even if you lose the entire AC, you can't afford a huge subsidiary company.

At that time, Lao Jin asked me to check for errors in the contract, and then calculate the quotation again and attach it to the contract. In fact, the contract and data have been reviewed by many people, so I think there should be no problem. Then I answered a call from Yi Fan. As a result, I was upset and unconsciously added a zero after the quotation. In the end, I submitted it without checking. It was such a dispensable program that I screwed up. I am like a little engineer who used a shovel to clear out all the landmines on a piece of land, and then buried a mine leisurely.

I thought, I should be ashamed. Should I find a hole to hide myself

As a result, I was just floating in the hallway.

Yi Fan kidnapped me at the elevator entrance in the office area on the 23rd floor. He dragged me aside, touched my forehead, and asked: Are you okay

I smiled, touched his forehead, and asked: Are you okay

He shook his head and said: Yes, how can it be good

Then he said: Guan Xiaobei, go home and wait for the call.

Su came to the company to pick me up. When I got home, I hugged the pillow and kept shaking it on the bed.

Yi Fan said, "Waiting for the phone call." Notice what? Am I fired? Because I have caused losses to the company, will the company take me to court and bankrupt me? Yi Fan, why didn't you say "I'll let you know as soon as I have good news"? Yi Fan, can you solve everything? You can, right? Please be sure to resolve this matter. I cannot afford to compensate for this loss, not even in my lifetime.

Three days later, I received a call from Yi Fan, which was good news.

Because this merger is a win-win decision, AC's bid was already generous enough, and Yi Fan and Ju He's boss have a close personal relationship. In this case, Yi Fan actually recovered the merger contract that had already taken effect and asked Ju He to sign a new one.

Although the losses were recovered, everyone in the legal department, from managers to ordinary employees, were severely punished. What should have been a celebration turned out to be a failure in their careers.

I know I can mess around with Yi Fan in normal times, but when something like this happens at work, no excuse can be called an excuse - even distraction caused by the president's interference. Many of AC's jobs are inherently difficult. Completed under strong interference conditions. Therefore, I took the disciplinary notice of retention pending investigation and had no intention of making any excuses.

"Mr. Yi, I'm sorry."

"The company lost 1.784 million as a result, which is not too much. This is the smallest loss I can strive for."

1.784 million... I am familiar with the company system. That fraction is enough to get me kicked out of the company without the company paying any price.

"You...Mr. Yi, I understand that you want to fire me. Keeping me like this will make it difficult for you. I will also...feel very guilty." I wanted to appear free and easy, trying to force a smile, but it didn't work. success.

"It's not your fault alone." He pinched his forehead tiredly, "Before completing the merger and acquisition, your supervisors at each level have the obligation to review it. We are a team... I am also responsible."

This small paperwork-like task is handed over to low-level employees, originally to reduce the burden on decision-makers. The so-called supervisor is responsible for just signing symbolically. Yi Fan said this to alleviate my self-blame. I understand and appreciate it.

"If something like this happens, I can't keep you by my side anymore, otherwise it will appear to be too much of a cover-up. If you go back to the legal department, your position will still be the same as before. However, there will be a symbolic punishment, and the company will punish you for half a year. Review and re-evaluate after half a year. In order to make up for the company's losses, there will be no salary for this half year. If you pass the re-evaluation after half a year, you will be paid six months' minimum wage."

I know that this is the lightest punishment Yi Fan can get for me. If I pass the evaluation after half a year, this incident will not leave a stain on my career. After half a year, I still have a bright future. . I knew that Yi Fan was helping me carry this result. He withstood the pressure from shareholders, executives, and so many pairs of eyes from top to bottom of the company, and almost helped me carry it all.

"Thank you." I said softly.

"Go ahead."

When he walked to the door, he said to me: "I'm sorry, I distracted you... I'm sorry too."

I didn't say anything, opened the door and left. It wasn't until the door closed that I leaned against the corner and shed the tears that Ren had been holding back.

I heard a deep sigh inside.

When I returned to the assistant's office, Elle and the others had already packed my things for me. I tried my best to put on a smile and said, "Thank you, seniors, for your continued help and care. I have given you no trouble."

They came up to shake my hand and say goodbye.

Alice hugged me and whispered in my ear: "You can start anywhere. Remember, there is even a higher place here, and there is a position waiting for you."

This is the experience she has gained through ten years of hard work. I believe in her and I will look forward to the day when I come back.
