Return To 1998

The next day, February 19.

In the morning, Xu Tongdao came to the 8th floor of an office building in Biyun District and Xiafei Road.

"Good Mr. Xu!"

"Mr. Xu, good morning!"

"Mr. Xu is good..."

...

Since entering the company, all the way, the staff who saw him greeted him respectfully.

reason?

Because this is his office location after the headquarters of Ximen Group moved to Tianyun City.

The internal area of ​​the company is more than 800 square meters. It was renovated at the end of last year. After the beginning of this year, the headquarters of Ximen Group officially moved here from Shuiniao City.

Accompanied by Zheng Meng and Sun Aizi, Xu Tongdao strode to his president's office.

In the high-end office, the secretary Tong Wen is already working behind her desk.

Seeing Xu Tongdao coming in, she hurriedly got up, greeted him, and went to make tea for Xu Tongdao.

As for Zheng Meng and Sun Xiaozi, they waited in the rest area outside.

Xu Tongdao, dressed in a suit and a lead gray windbreaker, took off the windbreaker after entering the door and hung it on the coat rack by the door.

Ask casually: "Is there any urgent matter that needs my approval today?"

Tong Wen, who was making tea for him, smiled, and two deep vortexes appeared on her white cheeks, "Yes! At the Internet cafe, Manager Ge Lianghua sent an application document yesterday afternoon. I hope they Internet cafes can continue to expand this year."

"Oh? How many branches does he want to expand this year?"

Xu Tongdao strode to the back of his desk and asked casually when he pulled the chair away.

Tong Wen gently twisted the graceful waist under the close-fitting sweater, holding the freshly brewed tea in both hands, walked over without a haste, put the tea cup by Xu Tongdao's hand, and raised her hand to stroke the big wave in her ear. Hair, smiled and said: "He has a big appetite, and he wants to expand 150 branches this year."

Xu Tongdao laughed and snorted, "He wants to be beautiful! 150 branches? Do their branches still want to turn in profits this year? Besides, does he have so many people now to expand his territory?"

Tong Wen clasped her hands on her lower abdomen, and smiled: "Well, I guess he just wants to ask for the price, waiting for you to pay it back! The 150 branches are definitely not his bottom line."

Xu Tongdao glanced at her unexpectedly.

Unexpectedly, her entry time was not long, but she was so accurate with Ge Lianghua.

Her judgment just now coincides with the judgment in his heart.

At the end of last year, at the annual meeting of the group company, he emphasized that next, the group company's focus will be on instant noodles and real estate.

Other branches must slow down the pace of expansion.

At that time, Ge Lianghua also attended the meeting.

Therefore, it stands to reason that at the beginning of this year, Ge Lianghua should not propose such a big expansion plan.

However, Ge Lianghua just proposed an expansion plan of 150 stores.

What does this show?

Don't you want to bargain with him Xu?

"Then what do you think is his bottom line?"

Xu Tongdao lowered his head and opened the folder on the table, while continuing to ask Tong Wen.

Tong Wen: "Well, I think it should be 50."

Xu Tongdao chuckled and closed the folder he had just opened. The files in this folder were the application form that Ge Lianghua had handed over.

Xu Tongdao casually threw the folder in front of Tong Wen, "Then return this application to him! Let him re-apply, 30! This is the share I gave him this year. You can reveal this. Give it to him, don’t even think about one more! The company needs him to turn in profits this year. Internet cafes? Hold on for expansion!"

Tong Wen smiled and picked up the folder, and in response, she turned and returned to her seat.

In fact, in Xu Tongdao's mind, he doesn't plan to expand rapidly in the next part of the Internet cafe.

Although in 2004, Internet cafes are booming, about ten years away from the sunset.

However, in his mind, Internet cafes are destined to be a sunset industry.

As more and more young people can afford personal computers, the business of Internet cafes is bound to decline sharply.

In such an industry, he is no longer interested in how much money he will continue to invest.

...

At the desk, Xu Tongdao had already opened another document and was looking at it.

After a few glances, he suddenly turned to look at Tong Wen not far away, "By the way, Ximen Yipin Food Branch will be listed in a few days. Did Shen Tuqing tell you that we need this? How do you prepare?"

Tong Wen looked up, smiled before saying anything, "Shen Tuqing really came to me, she told me to tell you, it's best to adjust your work and rest time recently to raise your spirits, and don't put all your thoughts on bringing children. It's...hehe."

At the end, Tong Wen couldn't help laughing.

Xu Tongdao: "..."

There was a moment of speechlessness, and then he smiled slightly.

Indeed, most of his thoughts and time in the last month have been spent on bringing up his daughter.

In fact, since his daughter was born prematurely, he has managed a lot less about the company, whether it is the group headquarters or the following branches.

Fortunately, at the head office, his cousin Tan Shi was helping him stare.

In the following branches, the general managers he previously selected were all his optimistic candidates. During the period between his daughter's hospitalization and discharge from the hospital, the managers of those branches performed their duties, and there was no chaos.

At least so far, he hasn't found any of those people who are negligent in their duties.

The operations of several branches are fairly smooth.

That is Shen Tuqing.

She is not regarded as a formal employee of Ximen Group, but was temporarily hired to help Ximen Yipin Food Co., Ltd. operate its listing.

Her identity makes her not as awed by Xu Tongdao as other employees.

So she dared to take Tong Wen's mouth to make such a joke with him.

Xu Tongdao thought for a while, his daughter's increasingly cute little face flashed in his mind, and when she was hungry, the cry of exhaustion and violent milk made him smile unconsciously.

Compared with the company, his daughter is still more important in his heart.

Before he was reborn, he lived for nearly 40 years, and after he was reborn for several years, he was at least forty years old now.

The birth of this daughter, as far as he is concerned, is really old to be a daughter.

What else can be compared with his daughter?

So ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although he shook his head with a laugh, and was not angry with Shen Tuqing, he didn't intend to reduce the time spent with his daughter in his heart.

He is even considering whether to hire professional managers to help him run the company.

Only considering that most of the branches under his group company are still in the development period, he reluctantly dispelled the idea of ​​hiring professional managers now.

He lowered his head and continued to approve the documents, but at this moment, the phone in his trouser pocket rang.

He didn't care, just took out his phone and glanced at it.

In the next second, his attention was drawn to the text message that he had just received.

Because this text message was sent by Xi Dongyang.

In other words, since Xi Dongyang recovered from a broken arm and returned to Shazhou County to open a small Internet cafe to make a living, he has never contacted Xu Tongdao again.

During the Spring Festival, neither phone calls nor text messages were sent.

Today, Xi Dongyang texted him.
