Chapter 883 Negotiation, Competition (Two in One)

This evening.

It is very rare that several managers of Golden Fleece Company have dinner together after get off work.

Vivien Kelly, Doug Gordon, Sun Yiyang, Singer Lane, and Mendez Carter, although they are not hostile, they are competitive with each other. There was no traffic down there.

But tonight, at Doug Golden's suggestion, the other four people happily agreed to have a meal together.

Tonight's dinner party, the dinner itself is naturally not the theme.

A few people ate it hastily.

Then Doug Goldon, who proposed a dinner party, spoke up: "Just yesterday, President Savim began to form a team to establish a fund. What do you think about this?"

"How else can we look at it? He doesn't want to retire."

Sun Yiyang said: "The chairman came to the company just a few days ago, and he started to form a team within a few days. It can be seen that he got the permission of the chairman. Everyone knows that he originally served in the company for a few years until he retired. , but now he suddenly wants to establish a fund, obviously he wants to achieve some results, and the purpose of doing this is definitely to continue to sit on the position of president. "

"Brown is right."

Vivien Kelly nodded in agreement and said: "Obviously, seeing the company's development and growth, our President Savim is tempted and wants to continue sitting in this seat."

"But if he continues to sit in this seat, then we have no chance."

Doug Goldon directly stated that everyone present was his own people on this matter, and there was nothing he could not say, not to mention that his words were not out of line.

"Yes." "I think we need to discuss it carefully."

Although Zinger Lane and Mendez Carter have less seniority than the other three, they will not have no chance of becoming the president of the company after Hank Savim leaves in two years. But if Hank Savim continues to serve as president, then they have no chance at all.

"We can't just watch President Savim make dazzling achievements with the fund."

Doug Golden looked at the other four people as he spoke. Some things must be done together by everyone and a consensus can be reached. Otherwise, he will never charge into battle if he is alone.

"That's true, but the company behind the fund invests money, and the results achieved by the fund are also beneficial to the company. If we obstruct it, we will be sued to the chairman, and we will be the only ones unlucky."

Vivien Kelly frowned slightly. She also knew that they should prevent Hank Savim from achieving results from the fund, but doing so would obviously harm the company's interests. As the company's chairman, Lin Baicheng would definitely not be happy after learning about this. Even if they are not dismissed, they will lose the possibility of competing for the position of president.

As for whether Lin Baicheng can know this, it is definitely possible. After all, the Secretariat is not for show. Moreover, the cooperation between the five of them is not close. Who knows if someone will tamper with the others? He secretly reported the matter to Lin Baicheng, and then removed himself.

Sun Yiyang shook his head: "It is not advisable to cause trouble with the fund."

Singer Rayne said: "On the fund side, the only thing we can do is not to provide support, openly cause trouble for the fund or create obstacles, etc. We can't do any of these."

"If you anger the chairman, let alone the position of president, it's hard to say whether you can continue to stay in the company."

Mendez Carter then said that for the sake of his position as president, he did not mind secretly causing trouble for his competitors, but the prerequisite was that he could not risk everything he had now, and the benefits would not be proportional. In the final analysis, if Hank Savim cannot be re-elected as president, it is not 100% that he will take over. He only has a one-fifth chance, and even because of his seniority, there may not even be a one-fifth chance.

Therefore, Mendez Carter doesn't mind doing something for the position of president, but he will not bet his career on it. The rate of return is too low.

"You can't do anything that harms the company's interests or angers the chairman. What do you think?"

Doug Goldon immediately said that he was not stupid. Although he felt that he was more likely to take over, he would not put all his money into it.

"That's natural."

As Vivien Kelly expressed her stance, the other three nodded in agreement.

At this point, the five of them reached an agreement, which made everyone feel relieved.

Sun Yiyang said at this time: "Now the question is, what should we do?"

"Today's dinner party was proposed by you, Manager Gordon. I don't think you have any ideas at all, right? If you have any ideas, you might as well tell us and we can discuss it together."

Vivien Kelly looked at Doug Golden and said, obviously she wanted Doug Golden to be the first person. Anyway, she would not be the first person, and there would be no benefits.

"That's what Manager Kelly said." "Manager Gordon, tell me what you think."

Singer Rayne and Mendez Carter immediately agreed. Of course it would be best if someone comes forward.

Doug Golden was not angry when he saw this. When he suggested that everyone have dinner together to discuss this matter, he was already a leader, but as long as he, a leader, doesn't go too far, then it won't happen. Something happened.

Therefore, Doug Golden said with a smile: "Since everyone says so, let me tell you a little bit of my personal opinion."

No one interrupted Doug Goldon. He continued: "This is what I think. President Savim is still the president and is in charge of all the company's affairs. Now he has established another fund. We can't It is true that we are in trouble with this fund, but in daily affairs, we can communicate more with President Savim and involve some of his energy so that he cannot devote himself to fund management. I believe that in that case, no matter what, It will definitely have an impact on the funds managed by President Savim, but this impact has nothing to do with us.”

"Brilliant."

Sun Yiyang immediately clapped his hands and said: "The company has a lot of things going on. If President Savim puts too much energy into the fund and neglects the management of the company, then no matter what happens to the company, President Savim will be responsible for it." He has responsibility. At that time, I am afraid that the chairman will already have objections to him before the fund achieves results.”

"Yes, this is possible."

Vivien Kelly also nodded in agreement.

Naturally, Singel Lane and Mendez Carter had no objections. On the contrary, they were very much in favor.

"So, then it's settled?"

Doug Gordon looked at the four of them. If he didn't want the four of them to enjoy the benefits, and it would be easier to cause trouble for Hank Savim with their help, there would be no need for him to propose a dinner party.

Vivien Kelly looked at the others and said: "It will be beneficial to everyone if we all work together on this matter, and we don't need to do too much. We just need to ask President Savim for instructions more often."

Sun Yiyang also said: "This is something that is beneficial to everyone."

Syngel Rayne and Mendez Carter also expressed their opinions, and everyone's position on this matter is consistent.

And whether you have contributed or not can be seen on weekdays. If you promise now but don't contribute when the time comes, then more than one or two people will be offended.

After the matter was settled, the people who were not close to each other stopped talking and said goodbye to each other and left.

…

Vivien Kelly and other five managers discussed causing trouble for Hank Savim. This matter was very secret and only the five of them knew about it, but the next day, Lin Baicheng knew about it.

This was not because Lin Baicheng closely monitored Vivien Kelly and others and sent people to follow and eavesdrop on them, but that they themselves reported the matter to Lin Baicheng through Lin Baicheng's personal secretary.

Yes, it was them, not one of them, Vivien Kelly, all five of them, who reported it.

When Lin Baicheng first learned about this from Catherine, he was speechless, but he soon understood what was going on. Vivien Kelly and others were testing his attitude and picking themselves out at the same time. After all, they took the initiative to report the matter to Lin Baicheng. Even if they were wrong, they could atone for their sins.

It's just that the five of them are not stupid, or they all have their own little ideas, so everyone secretly reported the matter to Lin Baicheng through Catherine, so that it became like this.

As for how to deal with this matter, Lin Baicheng felt that he needed to think about it carefully.

"Catherine, if they contact you again and inquire about my attitude, then you should tell them that the company's interests cannot be harmed, and at the same time let them grasp the scale."

After some consideration, Lin Baicheng decided not to dampen their enthusiasm. It is human nature to want to make progress. If corporate executives do not want to make progress and fail one by one, then the development prospects of this company can be imagined.

However, we cannot allow them to act haphazardly. High-level struggles are a taboo, so we must draw a line for them. They must not be allowed to act haphazardly, and the struggle must be controlled within a certain range.

At the same time, this struggle can be seen as a test of their abilities. Whoever has stronger abilities, including Hank Savim, will naturally be reused by him.

Even if there are no seats in the Golden Fleece Company by then, as long as their abilities are strong enough, Lin Baicheng can provide them with suitable seats, and they do not necessarily have to work in the Golden Fleece Company.

Catherine responded and then asked: "Chairman, what is the standard?"

"The specific scale is for them to measure by themselves. If it crosses the line, it's their problem."

Lin Baicheng smiled and did not give specific standards. Since they wanted to fight, how to measure the standards was also something they should consider, rather than him giving them specific standards.

"Yes, Chairman."

When Catherine heard this, she no longer asked, but said: "Chairman, do you need to remind President Savim?"

"No, whether he can find himself being targeted by his subordinates depends on his own ability."

Lin Baicheng shook his head. If Hank Savim couldn't even discover that Vivien Kelly and others had joined forces to target him, that would be too bad. He was not a qualified candidate for president at all.

However, Lin Baicheng believed that with Hank Savim's many years of career, even if he didn't notice it at first, he would definitely be able to react later.

"yes."

Catherine said no more. The internal competition of the Golden Fleece Company had nothing to do with her, and she would never get involved.

There was nothing else to do, Lin Baicheng asked Catherine to go out, while he continued to be busy.

…

After leaving, Catherine found time to contact Vivien Kelly first.

Among the several managers of the Golden Fleece Company, Vivien Kelly has the deepest background. As Isabella's best friend, Vivien Kelly is someone with a strong background in Catherine's eyes, so she must do this first. One contacts Vivien Kelly because Vivien Kelly deserves her friendship.

What's more, the female executives of Lin Baicheng's companies in the United States actually formed a small circle, and they had a little friendship with each other, aiming to take care of each other.

After getting in touch, Catherine conveyed Lin Baicheng's attitude immediately.

"Thank you for telling me right away, Catherine."

Vivien Kelly thanked Catherine immediately after hearing this.

Catherine said: "This is what I should do."

Vivien Kelly asked: "Catherine, do you think the chairman really doesn't mind us doing that?"

"I think so."

Catherine thought for a while and said: "The chairman probably wants to test your abilities, as well as President Savim, to see which of you performs best. Of course, as I said before, you must grasp the scale well. Once it exceeds If the standards are too high, the chairman will definitely be dissatisfied and lose all hope.”

"What about this scale?"

"As I told you, the chairman has not given specific standards, so you have to make your own guesses."

"Okay, thank you, Catherine. Let's have dinner together sometime. I'll invite Bella to join us then."

"Okay. By the way, Vivien is not the only one who reported your plan to the chairman this time. All five of you reported to the chairman through me."

"Did they also report to the chairman? Sure enough, no one was a fool and they all found a way out for themselves."

"Vivien, if others ask me about the chairman's attitude, I will tell them what he has told them. This is the chairman's order."

"Then tell it truthfully. After all, this is the chairman's order. I won't embarrass you."

"Thank you for understanding."

"Everyone helps each other. In the future, you will definitely step out from being a secretary to the board of directors and assume a specific position in a certain company. We will also help you then."

"Thanks."

Catherine’s purpose of making connections was not just for the future. She knew that she would definitely not be able to serve as the big boss’s personal secretary forever and would be transferred in a few years at most. Therefore, she needed to use her current status to make more connections. Of course, she knew what could be said and what could be done, and she would not do anything that would dissatisfy Lin Baicheng.

After all, the person who really decides her fate is Lin Baicheng, the big boss. If Lin Baicheng is dissatisfied, it will be useless no matter how many connections she has made.
