Shia felt that her last words seemed too fierce, but the CEO's tough attitude gave her no choice. She took a deep breath and decided to resolve the impasse by apologizing and compromising:
"President, please forgive me for speaking impulsively. I did not mean to go against you. I have always put the interests of the group above others. I also value your trust and love in me. If my words are offensive in any way, I sincerely apologize. However, as the direct executor of this plan, I also have to face certain practical difficulties. Consider it. I hope that by expressing these concerns, we can work with you to find a solution that has the best of both worlds."
The president's expression seemed to soften slightly, and he also realized that there was no point in arguing. What he needs is a quick and effective solution, not endless internal friction. Shia's compromise gave him hope of resolving the impasse.
"I can give you 3 days. Within 3 days, you must reach a preliminary plan with Maple TV, start the project immediately and recover the investment cost from Jiangnan TV." The president clasped his hands. Place it on the desk and look at Shia who is standing in front of the desk with a stern tone.
Shia nervously held the document in her hand, looked directly into the president's eyes, and said sincerely: "Three days are too hasty to negotiate a long-term cooperation plan, but I also understand that the president and The board of directors is anxious. I will go all out to reach a preliminary plan that is beneficial to the group and Maplewood TV within 3 days, start the project immediately and recover the maximum investment cost, and will also be prepared to convince the board of directors. ”
The president frowned and pondered for a while, then leaned forward, tapped his fingers on the table, and said in a slightly gentle tone: "Very good. I believe that as long as you give your best, the board of directors will also trust your judgment and plan. "
The president then showed a relaxed smile and opened his hands to make a peace gesture. "Your performance has made me trust your judgment and handling of things as long as the results are reasonable. And if the common interests are maximized, I will fully support your decision to stay or leave. I will listen to your plan with the board of directors in three days, and I believe it will satisfy us."
Shia breathed a sigh of relief. Still serious, "Thank you, President, for your trust and support. I will submit an optimal solution in three days."
At this moment, this will be the biggest difficulty and turning point in her career. Once it is crossed, it will be an important growth and leap forward; otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.
Shia finally has to face the reality that she least wants to face. In front of Pei Yuchi, a noble and influential person, how should she prove herself with what posture and language? Abandon prejudice and rebuild mutual trust?
This problem seems to be much more difficult than the skill itself.
Now, she has to stand up to repair this rift and rebuild a relationship of mutual trust. But in front of Pei Yuchi, she felt how awkward her position was - she wanted to overturn the judgment she had insisted on a long time ago., to prove his mistake, which is tantamount to slapping himself in the face in front of the other party. This made her feel more embarrassed and ashamed than ever before.
In Pei Yuchi's view, she was undoubtedly one of the promoters and mistakes that caused this failure. So how can she gain a foothold in front of him and convince him to trust the group again and believe that she can become a solid bridge in this cooperation?
…
That night, all members of the Taihao Technology project team worked overtime until late at night, trying to complete the preliminary cooperation plan within the three-day deadline given by the president.
Shia even worked overtime until early in the morning, then hurriedly went home to wash up and change clothes, and then immediately returned to the office to continue working overtime with her colleagues. Except for a short period of time to eat, Shia hardly slept a wink and continued to work for nearly 24 hours.
Late at night, Shia finally returned home after a long day of work. There was only a dim desk lamp lit in the room, and Oliver was sitting on the sofa, watching the game, looking eagerly at the door, waiting for her.
Shia has been working overtime these days. When he heard the door open, his eyes lit up and he stood up to face the door.
Sia took off her high heels and threw her bag aside tiredly.
She took a deep breath, pulled him to the sofa, and mustered up the courage to say: "Oliver, I have something important to tell you..."
"The company decided Let me be responsible for the cooperation project with Maple TV. I don’t want to hide it. If the cooperation is successful, I will meet with Pei Yuchi. I know that you have always objected to me having too much contact with him, so I want to tell you the truth and reassure you. "
Oliver's face darkened, and he sneered: "So you finally got what you wanted, and you can legitimately be with Pei Yuchi, who you miss so much?"
"Oliver? !" Xia hurriedly explained, "I have no relationship with him beyond the professional level. I have no right to change the company's decision. I just want to do my job well."
"Okay, you do. Go have fun with your Pei Yuchi!" Oliver said with contempt, "I don't care who you work with, don't think you can fool me!" After that, he grabbed the car keys and slammed the door.
"Oliver!" Sia called anxiously, but she only heard the sound of the engine starting. She knew that Oliver was really angry this time. This time, she was in a real dilemma...
There was a deathly silence in the room. Shia leaned against the entrance, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
She felt her temples pounding, and the fatigue spread to her limbs. A long day's work left her exhausted, and the frustration in her love life made her even worse.
She knew exactly what she had done, but she could never really make Oliver feel at ease. She has forgotten the last time she did something she likes, and life seems to only mean pleasing Oliver.
From the moment they met until now, she has adjusted almost all her life trajectories to Oliver. She learnedShe went to the kitchen to cook, but gave up her favorite food; she went to watch the game together, but she didn't watch the drama she was looking forward to for a long time.
The parties she attended were all Oliver's friends, but her own friends were nowhere to be found... She tried to integrate into Oliver's world, but lost herself.
She knew all she had to do, but Oliver never seemed to realize it. Her accommodation once was like opening Pandora's box. She didn't know how to stop this unilateral accommodation, but she was also deeply afraid of losing this relationship and falling into a dilemma.
She had longed for this relationship, but now, fatigue eroded everything. She doesn't know what to do, she is afraid of losing, maybe she needs to rebuild her life trajectory and find her own meaning.
Maybe...she needs to take care of herself.
She sat alone in the entrance hall, feeling confused. The gloomy night sky outside seemed to reflect her mood at the moment.
Xia looked at the dark sky outside the window, the night wind blowing in her face, she shivered and crossed her arms tightly. The lights in the entrance were dim, and her figure was projected on the floor, thin and lonely.
Her mind was in a mess and she didn’t know what to do. She knew that meeting Pei Yuchi was inevitable, but it made her look forward to and anxious.
At 3 o'clock in the morning, Shia suddenly remembered that she had not personally confirmed the meeting tomorrow. She hesitated for a second, but still sent a message to Pei Yuchi: "Teacher Pei, see you tomorrow."
She stared at the screen of her phone. Although Pei Yuchi didn't reply, she finally felt at ease.
The phone screen gradually dimmed, and she sat alone in the dim entrance, her eyes blank and helpless.
This is another long night of waiting and insomnia.
...
At 9 o'clock the next morning, Ni Ke paced anxiously in the conference room of Maplewood TV, glancing at his watch from time to time. More than an hour has passed since the meeting started, but Shia has not arrived yet, which is a taboo in business negotiations.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
She returned to the conference room and talked with Xiao Liao about some details of the plan to delay time, while she was anxious for Xia to arrive as soon as possible.
Pei Yuchi seemed to be drinking water calmly on the surface, but there was an indescribable uneasiness in his heart.
Receiving a message from Sia in the middle of the night made him uneasy. He asked someone to greet her at the stage entrance, fearing that she would lose her way.
However, time passed by, and Sia's figure still did not appear.
Siya felt dizzy after dawn and her limbs were weak. She felt that she was too sleep-deprived, and even staggered and almost fell on the steps.
She drowsily leaned on the sofa for a while, half asleep and half awake. When she woke up, she realized that half an hour had passed since the meeting started.
She hurriedly washed up, put on makeup, trying to hide the tired look on her face, and rushed to FenglinSatellite TV, she felt that she was simply terrible and couldn't find any suitable reason at all.
When Xia rushed to the conference room, both Ni Ke and Pei Yuchi breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Sia's pale face and tired expression, they couldn't help but start to worry about her physical condition.
Although being late for more than an hour did cause trouble, it was nothing compared to Shia's safety.
Xiya looked at Pei Yuchi, her eyes seemed to contain a thousand words.
She nodded slightly, with complex emotions in her eyes, like the desolation in the clouds.
There was bloodshot light in her eyes. She moved away from Pei Yuchi's sight, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down the surging emotions. Then she apologized to everyone in attendance, her voice still laced with sadness.
Then, she stood up straight and held her head high, as if to prove that she was still strong. She turned on the screencast and began to explain in detail a preliminary cooperation plan and ppt of more than 200 pages.
It can be seen that the results achieved by more than 20 hours of sleeplessness are impressive. Only people from Taihao Technology know how these more than 200 pages were completed in a short time.
How did Xia, who was standing in front of the stage at this moment, survive it? Although her expression was pale, her tone was still smooth, proving her strong perseverance.
But no one knew that the night that just passed was the sword that was finally destroyed.
Every time she made such a choice, her heart died a little more. In the end, she didn't know how much "emotion" was left in her heart.
Physically exhausted, her whole body screamed to give up, but she gritted her teeth and persisted.
She could bear the pain alone that would cause anyone to collapse in an instant if exposed. In the place where no one can see, in the dead of night.
What they saw was the strong posture she had to maintain, the posture that an excellent professional woman should have.
In front of work, she must prove that she is as strong as ever. In the face of life, she must also straighten her spine and live up to everyone's expectations.
Pei Yuchi looked at Xia's pale face and felt incomprehensible in his heart. He knew Sia's hard work, and he also knew that her exhaustion at the moment was not only from work.
Ni Ke looked at Xia and sincerely admired her ability and perseverance. In the face of emergencies, Xia still maintained her superb professionalism.
Pei Yuchi silently clenched his fists. Amid the praise, he looked at the paleness in Siya's smile.
He knew that no matter how much the people present praised her, they could not make up for the pain she had experienced last night. They had made her so thin and fragile, but yet she showed great courage in front of her work.
At this moment, heI especially hope that I can be the one who can truly care for her, soothe her pain, cherish her vulnerability, understand her hard work, and share her burden.
However, at this moment, he could only pray for her from the bottom of his heart, praying that God would place such an excellent woman in the hands of a trustworthy partner.
He asked someone to give Shia a cup of hot tea. Shia didn't notice these trivial matters at all. She was highly concentrated and tried to use a perfect plan to make up for the gap and apology caused by her previous mistakes in judgment. .
She was pleasantly surprised that she was like a god, and she managed to keep everything in the 200 pages. Her desire to survive seemed to have never been so strong.
The meeting lasted for several hours, and Sia finally felt that she was beginning to sleepwalk. Her head began to buzz from being concentrated for a long time, and everything in front of her became blurry.
She tried to open her eyes wide, trying to make the writing on the computer clearer, but her eyelids became heavier and heavier.
She knew that she was exhausted, and her body was silently retaliating against her exhaustion from preparing materials all night long.
Unlike her, Pei Yuchi looked energetic. He spoke so fast that she dared not miss every word. She looked at him in admiration, secretly took a deep breath, straightened her back, and reminded herself not to show weakness at this critical moment.
She tried her best to support herself, forcing a passionate smile on her face to make herself look full of energy. She knew that as long as she survived this last moment, victory was in sight.
"...Then we originally planned to come up with the second version of the plan next week. What do you think..." Pei Yuchi turned his head and saw Xia's face was pale and her eyes were distracted.
She picked up the water glass and took a sip of tea, trying to wake herself up. However, fatigue came to her like a tide, and her shoulders slumped unconsciously...
"Careful!" He exclaimed, and Siya's eyes darkened, and she felt her body leaning forward. , the vision was dim...
In the sudden darkness, a bright blue screen saver popped up on the projector screen, which read "The workplace is everything that the textbook does not mention."
There was silence in the conference room. She fell gently like a broken rose, documents were scattered on the floor, and her white arms stretched out feebly.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Pei Yuchi. She tried her best to prove herself, but she didn't know that this favor was the last straw that crushed Xia, and those words were just like her reflection at the moment, Her ending has been predicted.
