Chapter 1434 Patience
Shaoyang Technology Headquarters, Chief Operating Officer Office.
Sitting here is none other than Zhang Shaoyang's right-hand man, Lu Xiaoqiang.
In the past few years, Lu Xiaoqiang's promotion path can be described as sitting on a rocket, so fast that his colleagues went crazy.
But there's no point in going crazy, I really can't afford to offend him.
Sitting on the office chair, Lu Xiaoqiang was browsing the news with a cigar in his mouth.
Every page is about martial arts competitions or e-sports competitions.
Yawning, Lu Xiaoqiang leaned on the chair and blew out a puff of white smoke towards the ceiling.
"Beautiful! A textbook-like marketing case! As expected of a top student majoring in marketing, and worthy of being Peng Cheng's proud disciple!"
Shaoyang Technology and Baobaoxi Technology were competitors. Lu Xiaoqiang was not unhappy at all when his opponent performed so well. He even smiled when he said this.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and Lu Xiaoqiang said, "Come in."
A man who looked about forty years old wearing glasses walked in.
Lu Xiaoqiang quickly stood up and went to greet him, "Mr. Chen, why are you here?"
The visitor is Chen Zitao, chief financial officer of Shaoyang Technology.
Chen Zitao looked panicked and said, "Mr. Lu, it's bad, the boss is losing his temper again!"
The boss Chen Zitao refers to naturally refers to Zhang Shaoyang. Zhang Shaoyang has a bad temper. He comes here every now and then, regardless of time or occasion. Even if he catches someone in the board of directors, he won't show any dignity at all. The mild ones ranged from yelling and swearing, to the more severe ones, they even started to attack directly.
It used to be every three to five, but during this period it was basically once a day, depending on who was unlucky enough to catch up.
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "It's okay, we're all used to it anyway!"
Chen Zitao said: "Mr. Lu, something's wrong! Today is the day of the quarterly report. I'm going to hit the muzzle of the gun!"
Since the martial arts conference and e-sports competition were held, Shaoyang Technology's profits have gradually decreased, especially in the third quarter, which has been the lowest in the past two years.
If he heard this news, Zhang Shaoyang, who was already in a bad mood, didn't know what kind of small universe would explode.
Lu Xiaoqiang gave Chen Zitao a cigarette and said, "Mr. Chen, with the wisdom of the chairman, he should have thought of it a long time ago, so there is no need to be afraid!"
Other middle and high-level managers all call Zhang Shaoyang boss, but Lu Xiaoqiang has never called him boss. He particularly dislikes this title because it reminds him of a certain person.
Chen Zitao smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Lu, don't you know the boss's temper?"
Lu Xiaoqiang smiled. He really understood Zhang Shaoyang's temper. If he wanted to get angry, there was no reason for it. It was just to vent.
"Mr. Chen, what's the point of coming to me?"
This old fox must have some agenda when he comes here at this time.
Chen Zitao smiled and said: "It makes sense. Isn't Mr. Lu a popular person next to the boss? If Mr. Lu is here and gives me a few nice words, maybe the boss will be merciful and let me go."
Not to mention, Zhang Shaoyang has scolded too many people, but he has never scolded Lu Xiaoqiang in front of everyone.
Of course, only Lu Xiaoqiang knew that he had been scolded a lot, but others didn't know it.
This is probably called giving face.
Chen Zitao used the word "if". Of course Lu Xiaoqiang understood it, and he just let himself do it.
Lu Xiaoqiang smiled and said: "No problem, I will go to the chairman's side later, and then you take the opportunity to go in, put down the report and leave, without giving him a chance to get angry!"
Chen Zitao smiled and said: "Wonderful! Then I will thank Mr. Lu!"
Lu Xiaoqiang patted Chen Zitao on the shoulder, "Brother Chen, why do you have to be polite about this little thing? It's just a little effort. We have been together for a long time. You will know who I am in the future!"
Even though everyone in the company was jealous of Lu Xiaoqiang, to be honest, he was quite popular and he was known as a good guy who responded to everyone's requests.
That's why Chen Zitao came to find him.
Chen Zitao said: "Brother, don't worry, I will remember this kindness. If you have anything to do in the future, just tell me and I will make sure it will be done!"
Lu Xiaoqiang smiled and said: "Okay, okay, you're welcome, I'll go to the chairman's place now, you can come in in five minutes!"
…
…
Lu Xiaoqiang walked into the chairman's office. The floor was full of shreds of paper. Zhang Shaoyang sat motionless on the office chair in a daze, his eyes staring like bells.
It does look scary!
That was Lu Xiaoqiang, who would have disappeared long ago.
Lu Xiaoqiang sat on the sofa with an upright posture, almost the same as Zhang Shaoyang.
Two minutes later, Zhang Shaoyang turned his head slightly and looked at Lu Xiaoqiang.
"What's up?"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "Accompany you!"
Zhang Shaoyang frowned, "You are the only one who has the courage!"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "How can you be so scary?"
Zhang Shaoyang suddenly smiled and said, "Privately, don't they all say that I have mania and that I am a sadist?"
Zhang Shaoyang actually knew who said it, what was said, on what occasion it was said, and other people's reactions.
Those middle and high-level people seemed to trust each other. They drank some wine and complained about Zhang Shaoyang to relieve their boredom. Maybe one of them would be his pawn.
This is one way Zhang Shaoyang manages his business.
Moreover, there is more than one chess piece and it is not fixed, because he does not believe in chess pieces. Anyone can be a chess piece at a certain stage.
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "Don't watch what they say, watch what they do!"
Zhang Shaoyang nodded, "That's why I didn't make it clear. As long as their existence is valuable and they can create value for the company, they can continue to make fun of me!"
Everyone else can become Zhang Shaoyang's pawn, except Lu Xiaoqiang.
Because he can say what others dare not say, put forward opinions that others can't think of, and achieve results that others can't achieve.
More importantly, Zhang Shaoyang has become accustomed to him making suggestions around him unconsciously.
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "Chen Zitao will come in later. He is afraid that you will be angry with him, so let me deal with it."
Without any concealment, Lu Xiaoqiang told the truth. It was not worth taking a risk for Chen Zitao.
And he felt that telling the truth would be more conducive to doing this.
The knock on the door sounded at this time, and Chen Zitao raised his eyebrows and said come in.
Chen Zitao walked in a little nervously, holding the report in his hand.
Zhang Shaoyang said impatiently: "Put it down, go out!"
Chen Zitao hurriedly did it.
Zhang Shaoyang didn't even look at the report. In fact, the situation was already known.
"What should I do?"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "Be patient and wait!"
Zhang Shaoyang frowned.
Lu Xiaoqiang explained: "The results are out. We have to say that the operation of Treasure Box Technology was quite successful this time. We must face this problem!"
"But fortunately, Treasure Box Technology is still a certain distance away from us. We must endure the impact of this defeat, develop ourselves, and wait for the opportunity to beat Treasure Box Technology!"
Zhang Shaoyang asked: "How long will it take?"
Lu Xiaoqiang said: "There are internal and external factors, and it is impossible to estimate. One or two years? Or four or five years, anyway, we can't rush!"
Zhang Shaoyang thought about it and said: "Then endure it!"
