v3 Chapter 39: What a pity you can't do that

Chapter 39 It's a pity you can't do that

The somewhat noisy office was silent after this sentence. After a while, the clerk who asked the question first patted Edward's shoulder and sighed: "I hope the worst situation will not happen."

"I hope." Edward smiled, somewhat helpless and somewhat accustomed, and then quickly left, "Today, the new director will preside over the meeting of the planning department for the first time, and I will know then."

The worst-case scenario is that the new Ms. Charlize, who got the job by going to bed with her boss, had no skills, no control, or nothing at all, so the power fell to Mr. Bruto. This title comes from the big villain in "Popular Sailors". He has a beard, a arrogant arrogance, a self-righteous, and never puts others in his eyes.

So, what kind of person would be given this nickname? And even most non-planning staff agree with this title?

"How can they do this! How can Mr. Bentley do this! As the deputy director of the planning department, haven't I been supporting the overall situation for more than a month? Isn't it that I've been running the entire department?" Edward said, "The cloth "Mr. Ruto" is furious in his office at the moment. He has no beard and is well-groomed. He looks modest, about 30 to 40, but his drooping eyes and thin lips make him look quite equivalent. mean.

"Yes, of course, Mr. Fassbinder, but who made that woman ... the chairman of the board of directors of the company ... mistress." The assistant carefully courted, "I believe either Mr. Bentley or the board , All take your achievements into account, but ... presumably this Miss Charlize wants to try to do some planning work, so Mr. Cowell will ... arrange this. "

"Stupid woman!" The middle-aged man called Fassbinder scolded and said, "Who does she think she is? What does she think is planning? It can be done by going to bed with a man? See her planning book ! "

Fassbinder, who was walking back and forth fiercely in the room, suddenly came to his desk and lifted a planner in the air and tossed around: "Look at this **** thing, draft? Who? Would love to watch a bunch of inexplicable people bounce on the stage! "Survivor" is a really good reality show! Does she think that if you just make a show, you can have more than 50 million ratings ?! "

The next assistant lowered his head, his disdain flashed from the corner of his mouth, but he immediately revered, while Fassbender was still talking.

"I really don't understand what Mr. Cowell is thinking. He is a great director with genius creativity. But why would he meet such a requirement? Why not let her go to the movies? Title, I will be happy to help Mr. Cowell celebrate her. "Fassbinder finally slowed down, apparently, he is not a fool, knowing who can attack and who cannot attack.

In fact, it is exactly the same, although this "Mr. Bruto" is as irritable, arrogant, and arrogant as the animated character-as the saying goes, he has the wrong name and no wrong nickname ——But always sitting in this position, it has nothing to do with his mind of trying to figure out his boss, which is the same everywhere, this is the office culture.

Of course, his uncle also helped a lot, William? Arden, one of the few executive directors on the board of directors, has the role of vice president at a broadcaster. Is it Sean? Mr. Fassbinder's distant uncle. It was because of this uncle that Fassbinder was able to enter, and it was also because the uncle, even after making several mistakes, was turned into a big thing and a small thing.

Someone above, right or wrong, plus the ability to handle things is also good, so Fassbinder always looks arrogant and unconscious, even the original department head, opened his eyes and closed his eyes. Such a faction naturally made the staff very annoying, not only the staff of the planning department, but also the occupation of the non-planning department. Given that he is no worse than the big villain in Popeye, Mr. Bruto ’s No. is on his head-although there are many arrogant villains like animation, but everyone agrees that rude Bruto is his prototype-we can see how unpopular this guy is.

Mr. Fassbinder knew this nickname, but he was proud of it, and even publicized it in private: Yes, I am Bruto. Unfortunately, you do n’t have spinach, and you do n’t have a strong sailor Poppy.

"Okay, get ready for a meeting." After venting a pass, Fassbinder finally calmed down, pulled the collar, and immediately restored his gentle appearance. "This is the first meeting of the new director who came to the planning department. We can't be late-are you all ready, Jeff? "

"Yes, Mr. Fassbinder. Everyone has stated their support for you." Assistant Jeff? Fairman was still respectful, and then sighed in his heart for the upcoming meeting.

"Very well, if the lady is interested, I don't mind respecting her on the surface, but if she isn't interested ... it doesn't matter, it can't be her." Fassbinder sneered and walked out of the office.

Soon, he came to the door of the conference room, knocked on the door symbolically and walked in. The room that had some low discussions immediately disappeared, and many people lowered their eyes. No Go and see Spender.

"You're two minutes late, Mr. Sean." The young girl sitting at the top, writing and drawing on a document, looked up at him and said in a bland tone.

"Really? I'm so sorry. It's probably that the bell in my office is going a little slower." Fassbinder chuckled and sat down in the first position on her right. He did so intentionally, but was late. After two minutes, it was really nothing, but he could be late for so many people. If the other party is smart, he should know what he wants to express.

What a beautiful woman. Fassbinder thought about Charlize as he thought. No wonder some people say that the director of Miracle has a good vision, and that of women is better. Underneath the black suit is a thin silk blouse. The short skirt to the knee is added with translucent black silk and high heels. The facial features are exquisite. There is no expression on the face. The cold beauty can make people feel itchy. Want to conquer her.

"I hope not next time," said Charlize, still writing and drawing with her head down.

This somewhat commanded tone raised Fassbinder's eyebrows, but he didn't say anything, just snorted in his heart.

"Well, now that everyone has arrived, let's officially start." Finally, the beautiful iceberg girl who wrote something put down her pen. "First of all, introduce myself, I'm Charlize? Theron, planning department The new supervisor, who has been a secretary assistant to Mr. Adrian Cowell for seven years before taking over this position, I neither know nor want to know what you are thinking, I just hope that everyone can work hard and seriously. As Planning department, we need rich imagination skills, but also need to turn imagination into reality, the planning department has created a lot of valuable things, I think you would not want to see yourself doing nothing, right? "

Nothing new. Listening to Charlize's opening remarks, Fassbinder gave her such a comment in her heart, and then despised the woman a bit.

"Very well, let's move on to the second topic," Charlize said after waiting for a while, and the cold expression on his face hardly changed, as if the weird atmosphere in the conference room was not seen. I have given you the plan book. I believe everyone has already read it. Does anyone have any questions? "

No one answered, and even with a few staff members looking around, they quickly recovered the look of drooping eyelids. Facing this situation, Fassbinder was also a little dissatisfied, and immediately glanced at the assistant sitting next to him.

A hint of bitter grin quickly from Jeff? Fairman scratched his face, then he coughed softly: "Frankly, Miss Charlize, although I think this plan is very innovative as a whole, it is actually not too operable. Audience We like excitement and drama, not just singing and dancing ... "

"This is the reason why the planning book is for everyone to read," Charlize quickly said. "No matter how broad a person's perspective is, there are limitations, and genius is no exception, so we always need more people's opinions. To improve the planning, this is also the reason for the existence of the planning department. If you feel that it is not exciting, Mr. Jeff, you can say what to do to attract the audience. If you just think it is not enough to attract the audience, it is not enough. "

"Um ... this ..." Fairman smiled bitterly. "About this, you can make articles on the ... uh ... promotion of the singer, for example, it must be upgraded because of various reasons, and it must invite some big names. The star is a judge ... Frankly speaking, this requires a lot of investment, and the company has a lot of reality shows now, so there is no need to make such a large investment. "

"The front is very good, but the back is still very general," Charlize said slowly. "How much investment is required? What are the prospects? What are the possible losses?"

"This ..." Fairman's fine sweat dripped from his head, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Fassbinder gave him a glance of dissatisfaction, and then swept over the silent staff sitting in his own position, and then took over the topic: "No need, Miss Charlize, some ideas just need to read a little One click is enough for us to conclude that the problem with this show lies in two points. One is that the investment is too large, and the other is that the stage is too limited. If it was placed two or three years ago, it may be worth the company's investment. . "

"Have you read my plan in detail, Mr. Sean." Charlize didn't pay attention to his words, but asked directly. At the same time, her eyes changed a little, and she became more indifferent. Somewhat ironic and mocking.

This made Fassbinder very unhappy. He thought he was speaking with sufficient grace. If this woman was a good friend, he should continue to talk and announce the meeting. But she actually asked such questions and made such an expression. What did she want to do? Really think you can really take the heavy responsibility of the head of the planning department?

"I won't change my opinion," he said in an impatient tone, and waved his hand as if catching flies. "This plan is not bad, Miss Charlize, as I have not been advanced For your education, it's very good to be able to do this, but I believe that everyone here will agree with me. "

After finishing speaking, he glanced proudly at the conference room. Although some people were exchanging their eyes and some people were moving their bodies slightly, no one spoke.

"You haven't answered my question, Mr. Sean." However, to many people's surprise, Charlize was not angry at all, and still asked in a cold, slightly ironic tone, "You have seen me in detail Plan? "

Is this woman an idiot? Fassbinder was a little annoyed. Since he even said something like "no higher education", it was basically a shame, so he didn't hesitate to answer: "No, no need."

"Then I can understand that you made this decision after you didn't understand and study this plan in detail, did you?" The sarcastic tone became more obvious, especially with a condescending feeling, He couldn't help but make Fassbinder's head pound, he almost blurted out: "Yes!"

Yes, that's it, so what? He looked at Charlize with a sneer, a look of shivering. Many people lowered their heads again, wondering whether to regret this new director or to laugh at her uncontrollable power.

"Then, from now on, you don't have to go to work." This sentence spit out from Charlize, followed her and said hello to her secretary: "Eleanor, call the Security Department's Norman? Mr. Patrick brings a few people up. "

Until this moment, the people in the conference room reacted and looked at Charlize sitting in shock.

"Are you an idiot?" Fassbinder flushed at this moment, staring angrily at Charlize, as if he could not wait to eat her, "Fire me? Who do you think you are?"

This is an outright humiliation. Although she knows she is not eligible to fire herself, in Fassbinder's view, saying such things on such occasions is a challenge and naked humiliation! He must let this woman know that she has angered him and she has to pay the price! But, will he have such an opportunity?

"Before I came, Mr. Adrian Kewell, Mr. Crowder? Ron Rees, Mr. Anthony Gottis, Mr. William Arden, and the board of directors had authorized me. "All matters in the planning department, including appointments and removals," Charlize said in a cold, constant tone.

Suddenly, a sound of inhalation sounded unevenly, and everyone's eyes began to flicker. There is no need for Charlize to deceive people or to tell such a lie. Besides, among the people she exemplified, only Adrian, the chairman of the board of directors, can lay off Fassbin as long as he expresses his support. Virtue, not to mention William? Arden, Uncle Faraway in Fassbinder!

Fassbinder's face was blue and red, staring at Charlize's eyes wide, and pursing his lips for a long while and not speaking.

"You lie!" The voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, he took a deep breath, the blue veins on his head burst into the air, giving the illusion that it would break at any time.

"Anyone who has doubts can consult with them for verification." Charlize was still so light-hearted and contrasted with angry Fassbinder.

The staff present could not help but sympathize, and no one expected that the chairman of the board would support this woman to such a point. Of course, there were more gloats, "Mr. Bruto" will finally have this time.

At this moment, the knock on the door rang, and then the head of security department Norman? Patrick appeared with two security guards at the door of the conference room: "Are you looking for anything, Miss Charlize?"

"Mr. Sean? Mr. Fassbinder is not an employee of the company now, and let the two security guards accompany him to pack things." Charlize said casually, as if Fassbinder was only a small role.

Patrick hesitated, but then made a gesture to the security guard behind him. A white man and a black man came back behind Fassbinder and made a gesture. This is the case in American companies. Once an employee is fired, he will be ordered to pack and leave immediately, and the bodyguard will be supervised, because he is afraid that the dismissed employee will secretly undermine the dissatisfaction, but I have not informed it one month in advance and then left Enough time for the fired to find work.

Fassbinder stroked his teeth hard, breathing heavily, and finally stood up with trembling.

"You bitch, you just climbed to bed with the man to get to this position. What ability do you have except this!" He cursed viciously.

"It's a pity you can't do that," Charlize said lightly.

Suddenly, Fassbinder seemed to be pinching his throat and blushing and couldn't go on, and the people around him were all eccentrically looking, as if he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. In the end, he walked away a little. Out.

"Have anyone read my plan in detail?" After the poor former deputy supervisor left, Charlize threw out the previous question again. The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became dignified and dull. Began to be careful ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ to know that almost no one had said good things to the new director just now.

However, Charlize didn't say anything, just waited patiently. After a short while, an employee raised his hand hesitantly.

"Edward? Hubble." Charlize nodded. "Anything else?"

Another employee raised his hand slowly.

"Julianne? Harrington, fine," Charlize nodded again. "Anything else?"

No one raised his hand again this time, so ten minutes later, the new supervisor closed the folder in front of him: "So, today ’s meeting is over. Please remember to read the plan book in detail this time. In addition, Edward, Zhu Lianne and Jeff come to my office. "

Everyone in this room was relieved, and then looked at the three named people with envy and jealousy, especially Jeff? Fairman, you know, he's Fassbinder's assistant! Let's take a look at the indifferent look all the time, orderly packing his things and leaving the conference room calmly, as if everything is under control, as if the iceberg Charlie? Theron, a word popped into people's minds involuntarily: Queen!
