Chapter 39 Chapter Thirty-Nine

In another office on the twenty-eighth floor, the conversation that was going on at the same time also progressed to this topic. The two parties in the conversation were Dai Xi and Ye Jialan, the newly appointed Personnel Director of the Greater China Region.Ye Jialan, who is just in her early forties, has worked in the personnel department of a Chinese company for more than six years. She is also considered a veteran of West Bund Chemical. She has worked as a personnel specialist in charge of recruitment, welfare and training. She worked with her when she was a HR specialist, and later Zhu Mingming was promoted to the HR manager of the Chinese company and became Ye Jialan's boss.Later, Zhu Mingming was promoted to the HR director of the Greater China region, and Ye Jialan was also promoted to the HR manager of the Chinese company. This time, Zhu Mingming suddenly resigned, and she unexpectedly got the opportunity to fill the vacancy of the HR director of the Greater China region.

Ye Jialan taking Zhu Mingming's position must have been Li Weilian's decision before leaving the company.During the whole day of interviews, she was placed third, which shows how much Li Weilian attaches importance to this candidate.In Li Weilian's final work assignment email, he assigned Ye Jialan all the key personnel tasks in the follow-up reorganization. As soon as philips took over, he officially appointed Ye Jialan as the new HR director of the Greater China region, obviously reaching a consensus with Li Weilian. Since May, Dai Xi has been working under Ye Jialan.Their most important task is still to implement the personnel changes and system innovations related to the reorganization.

After two weeks passed, Dai Xi was completely familiar with Ye Jialan's work style, and also realized Li Weilian's ingenious intentions in arranging them. The current situation must be the result of what he didn't want to see, but had no choice. Ye Jialan is rigorous and steady in handling affairs, and is an experienced personnel manager.In the past few years, she has not been promoted as fast as Zhu Mingming. Outsiders can easily attribute this to the fact that Zhu Mingming used to be Li Weilian's secretary and had an exceptionally close relationship with him.But now Dai Xi understands that Li Weilian is really good at putting people in the most suitable positions, but his favorite subordinates are people with a similar style to himself—smart, capable, ambitious, creative and Imaginative, likes challenges and innovations.Zhu Mingming fits these characteristics and is favored by him, so he keeps giving Zhu Mingming more space to display, and puts Ye Jialan, who is known for her prudence, at a slightly lower position, using her hard work to lay a solid foundation .

During this reorganization, Li Weilian sent Zhu Mingming to prepare for the establishment of the R&D center. He definitely wanted to give full play to her bold and active work expertise. He has always trusted Zhu Mingming and placed her next to Gilbert because he wanted to monitor Gilbert's dynamics at any time. the goal of.It's a pity that Li Weilian, who has always been confident, has a big fight with Zhu Mingming this time. No wonder he is very annoyed—what caused the betrayal of someone he treats so well, he must still be still thinking about it. Can't figure it out. "Dai Xi, you did a great job!" Ye Jialan just put down the document in his hand, and praised with a smile.

Dai Xi also smiled and blinked her eyes. She knew that she was not modest enough, but she just couldn't say such polite words as "it's all Carrie, you guide well".She looked towards the window with some embarrassment, there was also a pot of green palm bamboo under the window, Dai Xi's heart seemed to be touched by the green leaves, there was no way, everything here reminded her of Li Weilian, Even though he has clearly and unequivocally left. It's what he said - start learning to flatter now, it's necessary. Dai Xi lowered her eyelids, I just can't learn it, what do you think?

Ye Jialan didn't notice the ups and downs of Dai Xi's mood. She was concentrating on her work and was somewhat rigid. Today she seemed to be feeling a lot, and then said: "We will draft the personnel rules related to the reorganization in less than two weeks. Even Philips is quite satisfied. I just finished talking with him this morning, and he agreed in principle, so that it can be released by the end of this month at the latest." "Yeah, that's really good!" Dai Xi searched her brains and found out such a sentence. Ye Jialan breathed a long sigh of relief: "This year, the company is too turbulent. I had hoped that after the reorganization was completed, everything would be settled. How could I expect... Alas! Fortunately, philips is very stable. Now our position As soon as the detailed rules come out, the benefits that everyone has been looking forward to for almost half a year have been fulfilled, and everyone can feel completely at ease."

"Daisy, although you are a newcomer, your performance has been much better than expected. Taking advantage of the reorganization, I have directly placed you from the position of assistant to the position of commissioner. The corresponding level and salary will be raised by one level. Usually such a promotion requires at least Only after working for a year." "Ah? Carrie, I..." Dai Xizhen couldn't even complete a sentence this time. Ye Jialan looked at Dai Xi's flushed face, thinking that the young girl was shy, so she smiled generously: "It's your own achievements, and you should be promoted."

The detailed rules drawn up by Ye Jialan and Dai Xi have indeed brought great benefits to all Chinese employees. This was also one of the important purposes of Li Weilian's all-out efforts to initiate the reorganization.There have been many rumors in the company these days, saying that when Li Weilian resigned to the headquarters, he negotiated extremely hard with the board of directors on these contents. , but judging from Philips' series of stabilizing measures and his approval of the rules, Li Weilian should have won the negotiation with the top management. During the period when Dai Xi participated in the formulation of the detailed rules, it was completely clear that Li Weilian promoted Ye Jialan, who was serious and lacking in creativity, before his departure, just to let her implement the ideas he left behind.

The benefits he promised were delivered, but what about the innovations he envisioned? At this moment, Dai Xi recalled what Li Weilian said to herself in his elegant office in the "Yi Garden" on the morning of early April. She remembered that the new personnel system he said was by no means only oriented towards profit as it is now. He is not stable, but full of imagination and a sense of the times. He must have very novel ideas, and Dai Xi needs to contribute her own intelligence and sensitivity. Ambition and prospect came to an abrupt end this spring, leaving only a lingering aftertaste in my heart.

Of course Ye Jialan didn't understand Dai Xi's thoughts and feelings.She started to move on to the next topic: "Dai Xi, the company has decided not to continue renting the 'Yi Garden'. The administration department has already started looking for a new location for the headquarters in the Greater China region. You have been in charge of the renovation project of the 'Yi Garden' before. You are the most familiar with the situation, so you are responsible for moving out of 'Yi Garden'." "Not in 'Yi Garden' anymore?!" Dai Xi called out, and the bitterness in his heart suddenly permeated, "Why?"

Ye Jialan sighed: "Maybe it's because the cost is high there, and although the old bungalow is grand, it's not as convenient as the modern office building." She was really cautious and didn't mention Li Weilian at all. "But it was remodeled just now..." Dai Xi said softly. Like everyone else in Greater China, she still didn't know that Li Weilian actually owned "Yiyuan", but she knew Li Weilian deeply. Dai Xi's love for "Yi Yuan" and the bond between him and this house, which seemed to be connected by flesh and blood, made Dai Xi both curious and moved.The most important thing is that she always has a little secret in her heart that is not humane to outsiders: no matter whether he stays away or not, she will definitely be able to wait for his return in "Yi Garden", and she will open the door of his room. . Dai Xi raised her head: "Actually, a lot of things were moved out before the renovation, there... there is nothing left now." She heard her voice trembling, and quickly stopped talking. Ye Jialan's heart is also not very good, although it is sad to leave the tea, but it is helpless and necessary.For everyone in West Bund Chemical Greater China, the era of Li Weilian is over. Even if there are many nostalgia and reluctance, sooner or later they will have to accept this reality.She understands the company's decision, and moving the headquarters of the Greater China region away from "Yiyuan" is a landmark action. Ye Jialan said in a relaxed tone: "That's just right, you don't need to bother too much. I have agreed with the administration department, and they will still do the specific moving work, so you can give me advice, and it won't take a lot of time." "I know..." Dai Xi couldn't help asking this question, "What about William's things?" Ye Jialan was stunned: "Oh, you put it away first, please let Lisa handle it." Dai Xi lowered her head, Lisa will definitely keep in touch with Li Weilian, both public and private, but she will return to work after a two-week vacation, and after handing over the work to Philips' secretary, she will transfer to Raymond to learn about supplier management. .These days, he has been busy on business trips with Raymond, familiarized himself with suppliers from all over the world, occasionally greeted Dai Xi on msn, and never mentioned Li Weilian's current situation. "Carrie, I'll go first and go to 'Yi Garden' to make some preparations." "Wait, Dai Xi! There is one more thing." Ye Jialan waved his hands with a smile on his face. Looking at Dai Xi, Ye Jialan's expression suddenly became meaningful: "Dai Xi, you know that Maggie was going to organize the R&D center. After she left, no one took over the job. Philips said in the meeting with me this morning, Gilbert He really appreciates your ability, and he wants you to take over from Maggie in the R&D center." "Me? R&D center?" Dai Xi was taken aback. "Yes, it's really a very good development opportunity. If you go, you can be promoted from personnel specialist to personnel manager. Hehe, Daixi, you can take a helicopter." "But I...do I have to go?!" Dai Xi's anxious appearance made Ye Jialan a little surprised, but also a little funny. She quickly comforted her: "Isn't this asking your thoughts first? Don't worry, you should think about it carefully, and the company will fully respect the opinions of employees. Of course, I personally think that This opportunity is rare, and the only trouble is frequent business trips to Beijing. Dai Xi, are you not married yet? Do you have a boyfriend?" Dai Xi nodded, then shook her head... Her heart suddenly became a mess. "Well, if you have a boyfriend, you should discuss it with him first, and then make a decision." After leaving Ye Jialan's office, Dai Xi passed her seat to pick up the purse, and went downstairs directly.The sun in mid-May can already make people sweat.Just like what Li Weilian said when he first called her to "Shuangmei", it took just fifteen minutes to walk from the company to "Yiyuan" in a leisurely manner.This section of the road is now so familiar to Dai Xi, so familiar that he can find memories in every intersection, every shop window and every sycamore tree trunk—a memory that is not long ago but has been deeply rooted in his heart.Dai Xi understands that such memories are precious. The sunshine in early summer is like a veil on the white body of "Yiyuan", the lawn and shrubs are green and shiny, the lilac leaves dance imperceptibly in the breeze, reflecting a little bit of light, and the flowers are all withered .In Dai Xi's eyes, today's "Yiyuan" shows the most beautiful beauty she has never experienced before. It is so lonely, so desolate, so sad and sad-I am leaving you, who will come in the future? accompany you? Taking out the phone from the bag, Dai Xi chose Meng Feiyang's number, hesitated again and again, but she still couldn't press the green button.It has been a whole month since she and Meng Feiyang lost contact, and among the 20 million people in this huge city, they lived separately like two strangers. This is not a real separation, because no one has ever drawn the end, they are just waiting for the moment of reunion, and while waiting, chewing on their emotions for each other and savoring the meaning of love. Since the morning after the anonymous email was sent, Meng Feiyang watched Dai Xi's departure from the downstairs of Dai Xi's house, and he devoted himself to working day and night.In just one month, he traveled more than ten times, staying in Shanghai if he could, and even working overtime at the company during the May Day holiday.For Meng Feiyang today, the most painful thing is to spend the night in his own home. The newly installed hot water faucet in the kitchen and the repaired heater in the bathroom have not been used by Dai Xi, and the severe winter has passed.Just as the love and nostalgia in Meng Feiyang's heart were first frozen inadvertently, and then melted by the spring breeze, the last remaining water stains also evaporated with the rising temperature and dissipated in the wanton floating air, as if completely There is no need to exist. The days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter.On rare occasions in the early morning, Meng Feiyang had a wild dream for an hour or two after watching the DVD all night, and woke up dizzy in his own bed.His home is located on the second floor. Outside the window of the small balcony, there is a luxuriant Magnolia magnolia tree. In the early morning of spring, unknown birds are singing on the branch very early. The ground cat went to the window, wanting to take a peek at the green feathers and round black eyes of the little bird. But every time he got close to the window sill, the little bird chirped and soared into the sky, and flew away without a trace in a blink of an eye. "Daixi..." Meng Feiyang felt severe heartache.He had had to watch Dai Xi fly away like this a few years ago, and he had spent a lot of time and effort to be ready to accept that she would never come back.But she came back, for him!This surprised and delighted Meng Feiyang, but the joy of regaining what was lost lasted so short, it was as short as a dream. His heart was suffering from self-blame, complaint, expectation and despair over and over again, but his rationality gradually broke through from the entangled emotions. Meng Feiyang found that if he wanted to recover his breathing freely, he had to re-understand his feelings towards Dai. Xi's love, sort out the meaning of gain and loss. — Daisy, maybe she shouldn't come back at all.This idea is like a ray of light drawn by a match, every time it appears, Meng Feiyang ruthlessly snuffs it out in great pain.But during this month, he forced himself to seriously think about this issue. After so many sleepless nights, Meng Feiyang has now come to the conclusion: the contradiction between ideals and love is what keeps bothering him and Dai Xi, and brings them endless troubles. The culprit. He had to question himself, was it too selfish for Dai Xi to give up his dream career in psychology for him?Even if they persist like this, can they really achieve happiness?As a man with self-respect, how could he possess Dai Xi in the name of love, but deprive her of the right to fly freely? However, with all his strength gathered, Meng Feiyang could only ask these questions but could not answer them.Dai Xi was like a vein connected to his heart, even thinking of her leaving would make Meng Feiyang unbearably painful.He knew that he couldn't do it alone, he had to hold Dai Xi's slender hand and look into the deepest part of those dark eyes, so that they could find out the answer together. Fortunately, he had almost no time in Shanghai, so he didn't have to restrain his desire to see Dai Xi too hard.They have been separated for three years, and they have accumulated enough experience - parting is just a prelude to reunion, and Meng Feiyang believes that when they reunite next time, they will have the opportunity to verify each other's most sincere emotions. On this day, Meng Feiyang was invited by Ke Zhengyun to visit his new home. Meng Feiyang had just returned from a business trip in Nanjing in the afternoon, when he received a call from Ke Zhengyun on the train.I haven't contacted Lao Ke for a long time. His voice sounded quite loud on the phone, and he seemed to be in good spirits.Meng Feiyang accepted the invitation without hesitation. When the taxi drove into the street mentioned by Lao Ke, Meng Feiyang saw Ke Yaping's thin figure standing in front of the community gate with the "Longli New Village" stone sign. Meng Feiyang got out of the taxi and said hello, "Yaping!" "Feiyang!" Ke Yaping greeted him quickly. During this time, Meng Feiyang was on business trips frequently. When he was in the company, he tried to avoid Ke Yaping as much as possible, and did not want to be alone with her.Ke Yaping seemed to be able to figure out what Meng Feiyang was thinking, and she never took the initiative to look for him in the whole month.
