The big boss's expression suddenly became lively and interesting: "What did she promise you? CEO?"

"She didn't promise anything." I smiled for some reason, "but she did hint at giving me this position."

"That can't be done, she is too reluctant." The big boss also laughed.

It's just that his smile is a bit creepy, even though it's through the video, I can feel a little murderous look from the pixels.The so-called coercion of the superiors is nothing more than that, but I am not a person who is not the head of a department, so I will not be able to make great achievements and threaten the status of the big boss.I wasn't worried that he doubted me and said, "I don't know what your instructions are?"

He just found out about this, and there was a fart instruction, and he said as expected: "Talk about your thoughts."

I said as I prepared earlier, nothing more than two aspects.Miss Pan De has made it clear that procrastination is definitely not an option. Accept it. The current situation is not in our favor. Pretending to be inside is more or less helpful. We are facing the enemy, this tug-of-war may be very hard to fight; If you don’t accept it, without me, Li Yao, there will still be Zhang Yao and Wang Yao. The most important thing is that there is Kevin, who is ready-made, waiting there.

But I deliberately didn't mention Kevin, or anyone else who might be.This matter has to be left to the big boss to think about it. If it doesn't work, it's better to talk about it through Jocelyn than me.

"If you accept the proposal, the risk is difficult to manage. BCG is uncontrollable. Our company's personnel structure is indeed not perfect, and there is still room for improvement." I mean, I definitely don't consider agreeing to her, at least this I can't let me do things, "In this case, we can buy time according to the normal process, which may be more conducive to the long-term development of our company."

"You think it's better to turn her down."

"I don't think there is any way to do risk management on this matter, and the company is in a critical period." Without saying "no" easily, I asked, "What's your opinion?"

"If she doesn't look for you, she can look for someone else." The big boss said, "Are you willing to do it?"

I tried my best to maintain my business expression: "Well, this matter still needs to be carefully considered."

The big boss took a breath and suddenly laughed.He laughed for three or four seconds, and I suspected that the video was stuck, so he stopped and said, "Just do the multiple-choice question, accept it, or reject it?"

"The current situation of the company..."

"choose one."

"I think it's better not to give BCG the opportunity to install an internal assistant in the company." I had no choice but to say, "From the perspective of a front-line employee, I would reject her proposal."

"And let her go to Kevin or Sanjay?"

The big boss responded very quickly.I said: "If you know in advance who is the internal responder, it should be no problem to do some management accordingly."

"You're right." The big boss agreed.Before I could understand, the big boss said again: "Are you confident?"

I didn't answer the call right away.He graciously forgave me for a brief moment of silence, didn't press again, and didn't wonder if my motionless expression was because the video was stuck.

Finally, I sighed in my heart.I said, "If Rudra is not informed about this matter, it will be difficult for me to carry out my work."

"I'll talk to him." He nodded. "You can decide for yourself. If you need it, you can find me. I'll do special things."

After the video conference, I poured a handful of mints into my mouth.

The only good news is that I will not be dismissed because of this "underground work".Our department is too busy right now, and I don't have the chance even if I want to stand aside—but it's hard to say whether the matter will be dismissed or not.

It's not that I can't trust our big boss. This is not a matter of conscience, but an objective business law.

People talk about feelings, but business is very ruthless.

I don't think I can handle this well.In the past, a talent like Yuan Shu would be rare in a hundred years, and he had to have extremely high faith and good luck; and I was just a wage earner who wanted to pay off the mortgage quickly and get a promotion and salary increase.When I heard Miss Pan De talking about it last night, I never thought of agreeing to her. The most important thing in a person is self-knowledge. What does it mean that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall?

That is, if you know that you can't play against others, don't form a game together.

I drank water from the refrigerator.The chilled mineral water flowed down the esophagus, and my throat moistened by mints felt as if someone had stepped on its tail. The pain was so painful that I almost choked to death on the cold water.

I quickly grabbed another handful of mints, chewed them, and took a deep breath.

ah.it hurts.

What can be said and what cannot be said, where the line is, and what it looks like, are all issues for the future.The problem before me now is: how to convince Miss Pender that I have been bribed by her?

First I had to keep my distance from her.I've never heard of a weaker man fighting with his bare hands, and if I got too close to her, or tried to be too close, I'd be dead long before I won, and never had a chance to know when I Where is the ultimate move.

Then I can only be moved by her interests.

What can Miss Pender promise? CEO is impossible, and COO is not very realistic, let alone her, even if the chairman of the group appoints me to be the chairman, I am afraid that I will have to fight against all opinions.If I were a member of the group, my preferred subsidiary CEO would definitely be COO or Kevin, but considering that the big boss is likely to leave after being emptied, it would be more appropriate for him to take the position of the current COO; Small, after counting such a radish and a hole, what is left for me may be a promotion to the next level, which is the assistant director.

If the supervisor she casually promised last night can come true, the deal will not be a loss.

On Sunday, a strange piece of news caught my attention.

Singapore has banned all foreigners from entering or transiting from the day after tomorrow.

Previously, due to the importation of internationally transmitted cases, Singapore has banned the entry of people who have travel history to South Korea, Iran or some high-risk European countries within [-] days.There are only a few local infection clusters, and the situation is well controlled. Why is this ban still issued?I took a closer look and found that shipments to Malays are not affected by the ban, so at least there is no shortage of daily necessities.

Singapore once ran out of toilet paper for two days in February.

That's right, there is no shortage of rice, no shortage of noodles, and no shortage of toilet paper.

At that time, Minister Chen’s heartbroken “Why Toilet Paper” audio was widely circulated, because of his characteristic Singaporean accent, and even showed his face in places outside Southeast Asia, I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.

I don't think it's right. This news clearly shows that the Singapore government believes that the task of epidemic prevention is extremely serious, and the situation has become so severe that it has to "allow no entry".According to the domestic anti-epidemic experience, foreign imports and internal anti-proliferation, now there are only a few people wearing masks all over the street, and most of the food court seats are very crowded. It may not be so easy to control the spread of the epidemic simply by blocking traffic with foreign countries .

I was wondering, when I suddenly received a message from Lao Huang: "Check your email."

It turned out that HR sent an email to all employees, and our company decided to implement group office.Each department is divided into two groups, AB and AB, and one group rotates to the company every week, while the idle group works from home; as a trial method of the plan, starting from next Monday, all employees will start working from home for two weeks to check for gaps and fill in gaps.

The decision was made hastily, probably because of today's news that the plan was implemented ahead of schedule.There are few people checking mailboxes on weekends, and many people may go to the company tomorrow.If HR calls one by one, how much work will it be?The sudden launch of the plan also means a lot of adjustments, more email reports and document work, and more importantly, how to cooperate with BCG?

The exchange of information is sometimes subtle.In face-to-face communication, small talk happens naturally, and metaphors beyond words can also be suggested through simple eyes or actions.These things, which are usually dispensable, are very important to us in the current crisis.

Not to mention I'm multitasking these days.Switching to online office, should I study network information security engineering, or do I need to learn social engineering quickly?

In addition, online communication is too easy to leave marks.Playing Tai Chi in the past two weeks will become more difficult. Of course, BCG will also have similar difficulties. I think they may have to wait a little longer to come up with that framework.

I made a phone call with Lao Huang to exchange my thoughts.He said a few words of relief, and after hanging up the call, I still felt a little uneasy.The annual meeting with the group will be held in April, which is the top priority of internal work, and now it is a special situation, and there is no room for any mistakes.The drafts of each group have been collected to me one after another. The report of the department is given by the boss, and Lao Huang is his deputy; my job is mainly to prepare slides for the big boss, but the drafts of the boss and the big boss are all prepared by me. .

The form of work has changed, and there is a dead line for important tasks hanging there. I have no skills at all, and I am very passive in dealing with BCG issues.After all, the "Tai Chi" team led by Raymond is still inexperienced, and it is difficult for them to make breakthroughs alone. We can only hope that they will hold their ground and persist until the end of the annual meeting.

It's dinner time.I really had no appetite, so I forced myself to leave the computer, changed my clothes and went downstairs to the gym to do some anaerobic training.As a result, after the exercise, I still couldn't eat, but I was exhausted.I reluctantly drank a cup of whey protein, which was so sweet that I didn't want to eat it this time, so I finally grabbed a handful of nuts and let it go.

With a change of mind, I am more or less sober.It is normal to feel insecure. A company with 50 employees is governed by men, but can a company with 5000 employees still be governed by men?A sharp sheep in the flock is enough to survive. I used the night time to write a home office work report process, and I plan to implement it in my group tomorrow.

Now all parties are not stable. Under such special circumstances, how to ensure the normal progress of work and how to ensure that every post minimizes mistakes is a matter of knowledge.As long as knowledge can be systematized, it can be formulated into a process to ensure that everyone abides by it.

Of course—although it is not necessary, I still have to show this plan to the boss first.
