Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Pride

All these words together are only enough to express one ten thousandth of how I feel right now.Song Yi is definitely the best boss I have ever seen. No matter how stressful the work is, he never reprimands any subordinates for their mistakes. He speaks gently and politely to everyone, but you will never, And ignoring his majesty, you will easily feel whether he is satisfied with your work from his gentle tone.He will also give everyone absolute trust, and at the same time successfully transform this trust into pressure, so that everyone feels that they have the right to speak in their work, but also feel that they have to work hard and be responsible for their right to speak.

In the beginning, I worked with another colleague who was my direct supervisor. After getting started with the business, I began to report directly to Song Yi. If others work for their career goals, I work for my love. So my colleagues and I care about different things. I don't care which project can get more bonuses, and I don't care which project can help me get promoted faster. I am willing to do everything that others are not willing to do without fear of tiredness or hardship. , as long as he says a word of affirmation, a look of affirmation, or even just a smile. As time goes by, my indifference to dedication has made my colleagues all the more friendly to me. I get along with my colleagues more happily than ever before, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain in my pursuit of Song Yi.

During the day, Song Yi and I go in and out of the first floor. When we are busy, we can be stuck in an office for up to 14 hours. We discuss every detail of the plan, analyze the potential needs of customers, and predict the possible risks in the market .In the evening, we talk about a book, talk about a movie, share a good song on the Internet, or don’t talk about anything, each busy with his own work, but we all know that the other party is at the other end of the network, just a silent greeting, He will appear. The city of Beijing is so big that people often feel lonely after a busy day.I have asked myself in countless nights, what is your future like?Is it just going to and from get off work again and again like this?When the time comes, get married and have children?Is this what life will be like in the future?

The road ahead is always filled with fog, and I don't always know what I really want.Busy work makes people tired of thinking, but sometimes when they are quiet, they always feel more sober and confused.This is not how I imagined growing up when I was a child. If I knew that when I grow up, I will only become a working machine in a cubicle, and my salary will be used to provide housing. I guess I will never look forward to growing up. But now, I feel that everything is clear, I know what I want, I know what I am looking for, every day, every hour, every moment, I can feel happiness and feel that my whole body is full of strength.

When Young and I had lunch together, she looked at me frequently, and I was horrified by her: "Is there something stained on my face?" Young shook his head: "I think you've become more beautiful." I let out a long breath through my nose, and said mercilessly: "You are now at a higher level than me, so you don't need to turn around and flatter me." Young doesn't share my common sense: "I'm serious, you used to look absent-minded in the office, but now you're so energetic and radiant." Feeling guilty, I quickly covered it up and said, "Of course! You don't need to print invoices, and you will be refreshed naturally."

Young let out a "ha" laugh: "Don't mention printing invoices. After you left, Lu Licheng said that he couldn't find anyone for a while and asked Linda to take over your work temporarily. Linda is still printing invoices now! It's really shooting yourself Feet, God is still fair." "Linda should be very angry, right?" Young said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of her? You are not in her control now. Besides, her ability to reach this position is already at its limit." Young had just been promoted a few days ago, and he was full of ambition when he spoke. I could only listen with a smile.

Young sighed: "You are so lucky, we all secretly envy you to follow Alex, I heard that Alex personally asked Elliott for someone, Elliott didn't want to let him go, so he refused Alex, finally it was Mike who spoke, and Elliott had to put." I was surprised and wanted to ask clearly, but because I had a ghost in my heart, I never talked about Song Yi in front of others, so I could only say perfunctorily: "Elliott is also very good! Didn't you say that he is very good to his subordinates? Just follow him Can learn a lot.” Young looked at me carefully, as if trying to see if I was really confused or not: "You...you really don't understand, it's okay if you don't understand, but what does their matter have to do with us? I think we It’s also time to worry about it, do your own thing well, no matter who is the boss in the future, you can’t fire the worker.”

I put my head down to eat, but there was a bit of melancholy in the dish.Even if I didn't understand it at first, I understand it now, but I didn't expect Young to be like this. Lu Licheng must have helped her a lot if she was promoted, but... Sigh!I can only borrow the big sister's catchphrase "People's hearts are not ancient".Profit comes first, who can really do anything for whom? In order to win over XX, a major customer who monopolizes China's important energy sources, MG has used all kinds of treasures. Song Yi and Lu Licheng will each make a copy of each proposal, and the best one will be hired.The company is filled with the smell of gunpowder, but it is also full of infinite enthusiasm and creativity.In fact, putting aside all the conflicts of interests, just talking about work, this kind of atmosphere is the environment that most stimulates people's potential.From a certain point of view, this is an era in which "heroes emerge in troubled times". As long as you have the ability, you will soon be able to show your talents, and you don't need to go through the years step by step.

Just when everyone was racking their brains and exhausted their efforts in pursuit of perfection, an accident happened suddenly.The headquarters summoned Mike back to New York for a meeting. When Mike came back, his face was ashen, and he called Lu Licheng into the office. He heard that someone heard Mike yelling at him while he was speaking a Beijing movie. It seemed that the old man was out of breath. No one knows what happened. What everyone can see is that Lu Licheng is temporarily on sick leave, and Song Yi is temporarily in charge of all the work. Linda is the chief internal audit director of the company, and an internal audit team has been established. They flew here from the New York headquarters Two auditors assist Linda in her work. Linda summons different people to question individually every day, the company is full of turmoil, and it looks like a storm is about to come, because everyone is in danger because they don't know what happened, and they even reported dozens of extra taxi fares. Everyone began to secretly regret it.

I have a vague outline in my mind, but I'm not sure.Invite the elder sister out for dinner, and ask her insincerely. In this case, there is most likely something wrong.The eldest sister understood what I wanted to do as soon as she heard it, and said with a smile: "Su Man, you don't know how much my consultation fee is for an hour, do you?" I was angry: "You sold me, and I can't afford it. Are you going to help me or not?" "You are your little soldier, why do you meddle in other people's affairs?" "I'm scared! It's not like you don't know that background checks in audit rules are one of the important ways to find red signals. If things get worse, the backgrounds of relevant personnel will have to be checked again. Who knows how big the coverage will be? I'm afraid If I'm caught and found out that I'm fake, I will die a miserable death."

The elder sister had the expression of wanting to slap me again, so I quickly poured her a glass of wine: "I don't expect a specific conclusion, I just hope you can make a rough judgment based on years of experience." The eldest sister took a few sips of wine and said, "You first talk about your judgment." "Small reports have always been encouraged in Western audits of accounting fraud, because this is the most effective method. Whether it is the Enron scandal that triggered changes in US laws, or the collapse of Andersen, it is the tip of the iceberg that emerged from small reports. MG This kind of company is most afraid of troubles, so the internal anonymous disclosure system is extremely comprehensive. I suspect that someone wrote an anonymous letter to the headquarters. The content must be detrimental to Lu Licheng. How to find out the content of the anonymous letter. If you don’t know the specific content, you can act casually, not only can’t solve the problem, but will show your flaws. When we do audits, a very common tactic is bluffing. In fact, we don’t necessarily catch anything. , but it can create momentum and make us seem to have noticed something. Once the audited party has a guilty conscience, it will often reveal the real problem. I think Linda is currently using this method. She may have mastered something, but This is not enough to crucify Lu Licheng, so she is waiting for someone's psychological defense to collapse and reveal herself." The eldest sister shook the wine glass, staring at the ups and downs of the red liquid, with many thoughts in her eyes.I dare not disturb, and wait quietly.When Andersen closed down, I hadn't graduated yet, and my eldest sister was already Andersen's manager.The world's top five accounting firms became four in a blink of an eye. A simple change in a number is a complete change in the trajectory of many people's lives. The eldest sister is probably one of them. The eldest sister drank the remaining red wine in one gulp: "I think the person who wrote the anonymous letter is Linda." "what?" "Does Lu Licheng appreciate Linda?" "Probably not." "Then why do you think Mike appointed Linda to pursue this matter? Don't tell me that Mike appreciates Linda!" The eldest sister didn't bother to wait for me to think about the result, so she said directly: "I'll tell you frankly, sitting in this position, how many people are there in the whole company, who are the characters, who are likely to touch my own interests, and who are the conspirator. We all know who likes to play tricks, and once this incident comes out, Lu Licheng will definitely be able to guess who is the most suspicious person, and he only needs to do a little more detailed verification to really guess who did it." I muttered: "How is it possible? They clearly know the principle of audit independence..." "As long as Linda doesn't admit it, who can confirm that she wrote it? Lu Licheng also has his deep meaning in doing so. Like you, Lu Licheng and Mike must not know what the content of the anonymous letter is, nor what the headquarters wants to investigate, so they deliberately pretended I don’t know, Mike came forward to appoint Linda to cooperate with the people in the headquarters to investigate. Some of Linda’s humble subordinates must be Lu Licheng’s cronies. As long as there is any movement of Linda, he can immediately grasp it. Before Linda was in the dark, they were in the dark Ming, so he can be counted by Linda, and now the position is reversed, so it is convenient to deal with it." I said depressedly: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. In China's general environment, how many people can really clean up? If we really have to check them one by one, everyone has problems. If Lu Licheng achieves this position, there will definitely be If the matter is not handled properly, if Linda finds out and then the headquarters pushes the boat along, he will definitely suffer, how can he deal with it? People will deal with him almost the same!" The eldest sister gloated: "That's right! Even you, a good girl, can fabricate your resume. Who knows what secrets are hidden behind each of your colleagues. Take this opportunity, everyone will show it." I sighed for a long time, and the eldest sister looked amused: "You resign, and I will help you find a position." "It's not that easy. You don't know. People who resign at this moment are the most likely to be noticed and usually investigated. If my bad things are really exposed, even if you want to help me, you can't explain it to your superiors. Finance The industry has no place for liars." The eldest sister smiled: "I don't think it's because of the danger of resigning at a subtle moment, but because you know very well in your heart that Linda will not let you go easily. I really appreciate this girl now. Although she is petty, she has the potential to be a hero in her work. How dare you fight with her?" If Lu Licheng challenged her, she wouldn't be afraid to provoke Lu Licheng, did Lu Licheng kill her? It's really stupid and courageous, if she is kicked out by MG later, I will go and snare her." I was dumbfounded and couldn't say anything. The eldest sister gave me a blank look: "I really haven't seen the world!" She was eating with a smile on her face, but I couldn't swallow, holding my head and thinking.Which businesses of investment banks are most prone to problems?Insider transactions?Illegal operation of stocks?Information leakage?I hate that the business I am familiar with is commercial banking. I have never been in contact with investment banking business before, so I didn't have the slightest entry point for a while. The eldest sister cut a small piece of salmon, put it in her mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't complicate things. If Linda is a thousand-year-old demon, Lu Licheng must be a ten-thousand-year old monster. The more prone to problems, Lu Licheng It must be that the more he will not leave people with excuses, otherwise he would have been eliminated by natural selection and survival of the fittest, and he can still wait for Linda to make a fuss? This time it must be a small detail that Lu Licheng didn't care about at all, maybe it's a small matter , You can laugh people's teeth off when you say it." There was a flash of light in my head, as if I saw something from the fog.The eldest sister smiled with satisfaction: "If you want to make a move, you have to be quick! Don't wait for Linda to use the special position now to find out something. You should know that the auditing industry always checks to know what is an unexpected surprise. , and you will always find that the seemingly important fuse is just the tip of the iceberg.” I nodded, and the eldest sister sighed: "Lu Licheng is really lucky, and somehow got the help of an audit expert, and it's free!" Although it should be quick to understand, how easy is it to straighten out a company's accounts?Fortunately, I was out of professional habits at the time. Linda explained everything I did. I thought about the financial process and read MG's financial statements. In addition, I have two super bosses behind me, one is the eldest sister, One is Song Yi. For accounting and financial issues, I call my eldest sister for consultation. For investment banking issues, I consult Song Yi through MSN. All difficult points will always be reminded quickly, but there is still a lot of fog. I feel like I'm running against Linda every day, and I'm always worried that when I step into the office one morning, everyone's eyes on me will change. In fact, I'm afraid that Song Yi's eyes on me will change. The word "liar" is like two knives, hanging over my head all the time, making me feel restless. In addition to staying up all night and sleeping only three or four hours a day, I lost weight quickly. Finally, in the middle of the night, after the computer program finished running, it kept beeping, a series of red numbers were outlined, and a person’s name was popped up in a dialog box. I quickly put my face on the display screen and looked carefully. It's about travel expenses! Four years ago, Lu Licheng approved several travel expenses to one person every month, and the total amount involved was less than 10,000 RMB.Logically speaking, this fee is mixed in countless huge travel expenses, and the signature procedures are complete, so there should be no problem, but the problem is that the person who declared the fee left the company in October, that is, It is said that he has been absent from the company's salary payment list since November, but the travel expenses declared by him are still included in the expense reimbursement. Now, it is ironic to have complete and authentic invoices and signatures. Different people are in charge of MG's expense review and salary review, and the accounts are independent of each other.The company has a large number of employees, and the difference between the two months is very small. What's more, all the individual accounts must be summarized and reported upwards at the end. That is to say, every month, except for the handling personnel, the above people only see the summarized accounts. , Linda should have discovered this loophole by accident. Looking at the screen, I lamented that Jiang is still old and hot. As expected by the eldest sister, the total amount of the two months is only more than 7,000 RMB. No wonder the United States is furious. The expense verification and write-off systems in China and the United States are different. Internal auditors from the United States often cannot understand China’s spider web-like expense documents and invoices. Nervous, it seems that this time it is not an excuse to attack, but a long-standing grudge. To be on the safe side, I checked the data by employee number and date of birth through the computer, and checked the data for five years in total. After confirming that they were correct, I brought up the data one by one and made a simple statement. I believe that Lu Licheng knows what is wrong with the matter, and he will definitely have a way to give a reasonable explanation and evidence, but when everything is printed out, I am a little at a loss, what should I do with this thing?If I do this, what will Song Yi think?There is no doubt that this turmoil is his golden opportunity. At noon the next day, I went to ask Song Yi if he could have dinner with me alone, but he didn't answer immediately, but stared at me with unpredictable thoughts in his eyes, finally nodded and agreed to my request. Before the dinner table, I brought the report to him, and he read it from the beginning in silence. I felt uneasy, and he suddenly said to himself: "No wonder you talk so little recently, so you stay up late every day to make this thing." I couldn't figure out what he meant, so I could only say: "It's all done in my spare time, and I didn't delay my normal work." After careful reflection, I honestly confessed, "However, I did use my work to make excuses and embezzle The trust of my colleagues brought out a lot of things that I shouldn't have seen." He closed the report: "Why don't you just give this to Lu Licheng? I can tell you very clearly that according to what I heard privately, the dissatisfaction at the headquarters is because of the cost. After reading your analysis, I believe it should be These few travel expenses." I lowered my head, not daring to look into his eyes, and I felt a burst of sadness in my heart: "I am your subordinate, this thing, you decide its fate." As long as you want to win, no matter what price I pay, you will win. Will not stand against you. He didn't speak, just lowered his head and started to eat. After the meal, he pushed the report back to me expressionlessly: "You hand over the report directly to Lu Licheng, and Lu Licheng will thank you very much. Your responsibility to check the company's internal data without permission is I'll help you take it on, and if you need an explanation, I'll explain it for you." His eyes are black and white, clear and calm, like a clear spring, it seems that one can see the bottom at a glance.My heart was finally settled. He was still him, the boy who smiled and said "welcome fair competition" to his competitors in the lecture hall. I stared into his eyes and said seriously: "I'm not helping Lu Licheng, I'm just protecting myself, so I don't need his thanks, I don't want anyone to know that I did it, I just want to... …just want to work quietly.” I just want to work quietly next to you and enjoy the little things we have together every day. Hearing my unconvincing explanation, Song Yi suddenly smiled. That smile, like the sun breaking through the dark clouds, made all my anxieties disappear, and my heart felt warm, but his smile had just reached his eyes, but his Suddenly faded again, he lowered his eyes, took the report: "Okay, leave this matter to me!" Two weeks after Song Yi took the report, the auditors sent by the headquarters flew back to the United States, Mike began to fly around happily again, Lu Licheng returned to work after his sick leave, but Linda did not go as expected He was kicked out of the company by Lu Licheng like he said, but it was heard that Lu Licheng invited Linda to dinner. I don't know what Lu Licheng said, Linda cried like pears and rain.On the second day, Linda defied the attitude of a strong woman and announced that she would take her maternity leave early. But before she left, she and Lu Licheng made it clear to everyone that she would return to work at MG immediately after the baby was born. I recounted the gossip to my eldest sister, who sighed and nodded while listening, and finally warned me: "Don't, don't offend Lu Licheng, this person's heart is too deep!" I smiled wryly, do I dare to offend him?As long as he doesn't come to trouble me! The incident came with great vigor, but went away without a sound. I don't know how Song Yi handled it. No one mentioned his name in the whole incident. Many people secretly felt sorry for Song Yi. All the turmoil turned out to be a false alarm. I feel that Song Yi must have been happy for nothing, but it is a pity that Lu Licheng did not fall. I was smiling, my appetite increased, and my weight began to recover. Every time I heard others talk about him, I was always filled with secret pride and joy. This man is the man I like! I didn’t know anything about bullying him on MSN, and told him: "The person I love makes me look up, if possible, I am willing to love him for the rest of my life." His reply was sane: "Everyone has flaws, and if you don't see it, it's because the time hasn't come." "I have loved him for eleven years. I know what kind of person he is. Of course I know that he has shortcomings, but I believe that even if there are two more eleven years, I will still think that he is worthy of my love." "What you see is never all you know." "I have seen such a sentence, to the effect that every woman is like a gem waiting to be sharpened, and the man she loves is the craftsman. Whether a woman is elegant or vulgar depends on what kind of person she falls in love with. People. This sentence may be absolute, but women are indeed affected by the person they love. I am glad that I fell in love with him, because the person I love is him, so I try to make myself better, work hard Be a kind person, try to love every day life, try to face setbacks with a positive attitude, because of him, I changed from a person with low self-esteem to a confident person, because of him, I understand the feeling of chasing dreams, because He, I feel that I have become more beautiful. There are many kinds of love in this world, some are romantic and moving, some are lingering, some are sinking and painful, and some are flowing, but I believe that there is no other kind of love that is better than the one I got Better yet, my love made me love life more and love myself more." MSN was silent for a long time. I was used to him chatting with me while working, so I didn’t wait for the reply and read the comics. After a long time, his reply came: "These things are too illusory, I miss you I'd rather watch the stock go up or down if you're blinded by your love." I made a face at the computer: "Then you continue to look at your stocks, and I will continue to dream of my Prince Charming." "I have two stock recommendations for you," he said. "I'm not interested in this. I'll come to you when I lose my job." He gave me a sad expression back, I was happy, and sent a picture of a little girl wiping tears to a boy: "You have to get used to being rejected, although I know that Song Yi is not likely to be rejected in terms of investment." A conceited Garfield cat jumped into the dialog box, raised its fat cat paw, and stared at me dissatisfied, with a line of big bold words next to it: "It's not that it's not good, it's not at all." I laughed, continued to watch my cartoons, and ate my popcorn, knowing in every happy smile that he was there. After a while, he said, "I'm going to get off the net." "So early?" "It's too dry in the office recently, and the air conditioner makes people feel uncomfortable." "Then go to bed early! Good dream!" After he left, I immediately searched online which brand of humidifier was good, and planned to find an excuse to put one in the office later.
