Chapter 10: The fountain pen again Liang Xingmin’s office is on the 18th floor of the Jincheng Real Estate headquarters building. Luo Yang arrived at Jincheng Building just after eight o'clock. There was no special treatment this time. He was led to the human resources department by the secretary of the board of directors in a proper manner. After going through some procedures, I got a work card, filled out a resume that made the HR laugh and cry, and finally signed a contract as a part-time assistant to the chairman. Perhaps Liang Xingmin had already made arrangements, for he actually occupied a workstation in the board office, with a full set of office supplies on his desk. "Assistant Luo, these are the office documents I picked up for you. You need to sign them." Lao Liang's secretary Lu Na handed Luo Yang a list, which listed many office supplies including computers. "Thank you, Sister Lu." Luo Yang was sweet-mouthed. After signing the document, he asked, "Boss Liang asked me to attend a meeting at nine o'clock yesterday. Which meeting room will it be held in?" He looked into Lu Na's eyes when he spoke. The woman is about meters tall, with fair skin. She wears a solid-colored shirt that creates a popping effect, black stockings under her suit skirt, and high heels. Her good looks reveal the good taste of the big boss.
This is not something I can appreciate. "The meeting starts at 9:30. I'll take you there later." Taking the signed list, Lu Na smiled and said, "I will also attend the meeting. By the way, you have to wait until next week to get your business card when you come to work." "That's not urgent. Sister Lu, the meeting is still more than 40 minutes away. I'm going to go to the bank downstairs to do some things and come back before 9:20." Luo Yang greeted Lu Na and brought the 20 cash he had received yesterday. There was a bank next to the Jincheng Building, so he could go there to deposit it. "Well, just come back on time." Lu Na responded, and then took another look at Luo Yang's departing back. It’s not because he’s handsome, it’s just because I’m too curious. He is just a sophomore, but Liang Xingmin hired him as an assistant with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan. Is he an illegitimate child or the child of some leader? At 9:20, Lu Na stood up to remind Chairman Liang Xingmin of the time, but Luo Yang had already returned. He also stood up at this time and followed out with a notebook and a pen. "Xiao Luo is here?" Liang Xingmin walked out of the office door and saw Luo Yang waiting by the side. He smiled and asked with concern: "Have you completed the entry procedures?" "It's done. Thank you for your concern, Chairman." Luo Yang was brief and to the point. Workplace rules told him that it was pointless to try to get close to others at this moment. "Let's go. I'll take you to the company's weekend meeting." Liang Xingmin strode forward, Lu Na followed one step behind, and Luo Yang walked at the end. The conference room is on the 18th floor. It is medium in size, with a long table in the middle that can seat more than a dozen people. It is equipped with audio equipment, projector and simple KT board, and the company's corporate culture slogans are hung on the wall.
The remaining walls are also covered with information about Jincheng Real Estate’s two projects in Songjiang and Pudong. Although there were still seven or eight minutes until half past nine, everyone for the meeting had already arrived. Liang Xingmin naturally sat in the top seat, while Lu Na took Luo Yang to sit on a row of chairs against the wall. "Before the meeting is over, let me introduce a new member to you." Lao Liang pointed at Luo Yang and said, "My new assistant, Luo Yang, majored in civil engineering at Shanghai University of Engineering and Technology." When he was called, Luo Yang had already stood up, nodded slightly to the people who were looking at him, and said, "I am here to learn. I hope you can give me more guidance in the future." Of all the people, he only knew one, Marketing Director Dai Dongming. Faced with such a young face, a slight murmur was inevitable in the conference room. "Okay, let's get back to business. This week's general manager's office meeting has officially begun." As Liang Xingmin spoke, the weekly meeting began. The office clerk drew the curtains of the conference room, turned on the projector, and the home page of the connected computer appeared on the projection screen. The first person to speak was the deputy general manager of engineering. He opened a PPT document and began to report on the construction progress of Jinlanyuan and the new project Yulanyuan in Pudong. Luo Yang was also looking at the PPT on the projection screen carefully and found that the report content was a bit rough. In addition to the project progress, there are also design changes and bidding and procurement content. Liang Xingmin seemed to be accustomed to receiving this form of feedback. He would ask his own questions from time to time while the other party was speaking. Some of them even involved issues from other departments, and he would coordinate them one by one on the spot. It was still 09 and real estate companies did not have the concept of operational coordination. The large project system directly covered design, procurement, budgeting, engineering and other aspects. Next came the report from Marketing Director Dai Dongming, whose PPT content was equally rough. The financial PPT was relatively professional, so Luo Yang only took a general look at it. Thinking back to the operations meetings he had attended in his previous life, he also felt that there were a lot of things missing. If the previous part was acceptable, the report on investment and development was simply unbearable to read. The PPT first predicts the general situation of real estate, and then puts in a bunch of photos and a bunch of self-congratulatory analysis. In this way, he was able to get land in Songjiang Development Zone and Pudong. It can only be said that Lao Liang's network of contacts is quite wide. The content of human resources administration reports is all the same, and will not change much from what it is now ten years later. Time flew by and it was already half past eleven. The two-hour weekly meeting was finally coming to an end. Lao Liang was about to make a few concluding remarks before adjourning the meeting. Luo Yang also closed his notebook and prepared to go to the company cafeteria for lunch. If I have nothing to do in the afternoon, I will go to the sales office. After all, I am paid 2 yuan a month. "Xiao Luo, you have read Director Du Hong's report just now. I see that you are quite familiar with the overall situation of the real estate industry. Can you share your views?" There was a slight deviation in the market analysis. According to Luo Yang's memory, the housing market would start to pick up next month, but Du Hong's PPT predicted it would be by the end of the year, which was too conservative. But can't this kind of thing be discussed privately in the office after the meeting? Sure enough, as soon as Liang Xingmin finished speaking, the investment development director's eyes turned over, and the others also looked at Luo Yang. With a sigh, Luo Yang stood up. 2 yuan a month is not easy to come by. It seems that I still need to pay some real money. "Regarding the development trend of real estate, I believe that Director Du Hong is not the only one who has a set of views. President Liang must also have some analysis and predictions in his mind. This is a matter of personal opinion and needs to be tested by the market. I will not elaborate here."
Luo Yang put down his notebook and walked towards the KT board at the innermost part of the conference room while speaking. "Since Mr. Liang asked me to give some insights into Director Du Hong's report, and I happen to be studying a few models recently, I will just say a few words." In Liang Xingmin's eyes, the young man picked up the pen again. A fountain pen with black ink that can write on KT board. Yesterday, I witnessed miracles twice at the sales office, both times with this set of tools. Lao Liang's eyes suddenly lit up. (End of this chapter)
