Section 4
Qi Dong pouted and said it was her invitation, but it was actually Cheng Feng who paid the bill. A man who doesn't let a woman spend money can earn an extra ten points. ... However, truly ...! ... it's exhausting! She thought for a moment and replied: "It is my honor to have Manager Cheng's esteemed presence."
Upon receiving the news, the colleagues in the sales department also appeared much friendlier. Qi Dong was surrounded by various greetings and playful banter, instantly feeling a sense of relief as if she had finally passed the test and successfully infiltrated the enemy's internal organization
After you have had an ambiguous relationship with someone, your gaze will also change
He directly called her by her name. Last time, he referred to himself as Miss Qi. Qi Dong realized the change in address, and that things were progressing step by step towards her sales plan
It is certain that the fish will swallow the bait, but is she sure that she wants to catch it
As a result, the opportunities for the two to meet decreased. However, the frequency of text messages that Cheng Feng sent to Qi Dong rose sharply, resembling the upward trend of a bull market stock index.
Removing the fish that has injured its mouth and putting it back into the water to continue fishing is called playing with it. Moreover, this fish is a colleague from the same company. How can one bear to not catch a fish that is hooked in front of so many onlookers?
Qi Dong said with a苦脸: "Manager Cheng, please show some mercy and leave a way out for this little girl! She knows that she will definitely squeeze me to death!"
Cheng Feng's eyes flickered, and he smiled: "Qi Dong, it's just a meal with colleagues from the company. The way you put it is a bit too serious, isn't it!"
Is this what they call hitting the snake as it strikes? It proves that her sales plan's first step is not only above the passing mark, but even higher
Qi Dong forcefully swallowed her breath. She looked at Liu Shiru with a hint of malice, speculating how many bosses she had seduced into signing contracts with her beauty
A person's speech does not necessarily fully express their true thoughts. This is even more true for literal expressions. For instance, when she replied with a laugh, there was hardly a trace of joy or happiness in her at that moment
Cheng Feng's glance at Qi Dong resembled the summer sun, warm and intense in its gradual intensity
Good sales do not equate to good after-sales service! Isn't there a two-year period? The road ahead is long and arduous, and whether we can truly join hands remains to be seen, as there are countless obstacles awaiting her.
Occasionally, when Qi Dong encounters Cheng Feng in the company elevator corridor, she is敏感 to notice that there is more substance in his gaze. This change brings joy to Qi Dong
After passing this hurdle, Qi Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief
Cheng Feng blinked in feigned astonishment: "That common girl wouldn't be Qi Yuhe from the shores of Daming Lake, would she?!"
The fish showed signs of biting the hook, yet Qi Dong felt no excitement whatsoever. She lazily thought that Cheng Feng had given his subordinates time off for overtime, handed her tissues, and took the initiative to pay the bill, which added thirty points to his score. Coupled with the suitable hardware conditions, that made a total of eighty points. His dietary preferences and shorter stature deducted ten points. A man with a score of seventy is still worth continuing to promote.
Once Qi Dong signed that small order, the entire sales department was informed
Qi Dong carefully considered her replies to each text message, gradually implanting images of purity, liveliness, and cuteness into Cheng Feng's impression through just a few words
Cheng Feng chose a private dining restaurant. The two of them stealthily drove out of the company one after the other, gathering at the restaurant and exchanging smiles.
After summarizing the experiences of the initial victory, Qi Dong put on a facade and did not send a text message to Cheng Feng until that evening: "Manager Cheng, your contributions were indispensable in securing the contract. As promised, I will treat you to a meal; please choose the place!"
When she joined the company at the end of last year, she had no significant achievements. In the first quarter of the following year, she only managed to secure a few small orders worth several thousand yuan, and this contract worth around 200,000 yuan can be considered the start of her business.
Sales also involves strategy. Rushing to sell can only indulge customers in the buyer's market, allowing them to adopt a demanding attitude and be overly selective.
Her adorable appearance made Cheng Feng unable to resist reaching out to ruffle her hair, and he boldly waved his hand, saying, "Let's eat"
Qi Dong displayed a bright smile, pretending to be innocent as she nodded vigorously
However, Qi Dong has not yet familiarized herself with this piece of land. Winning the verbal battle does not earn her a single cent in bonuses, but it allows others in the department to enjoy the show for free. Clearly, Qi Dong is not interested in matters that offer no benefits. She fully embodies the spirit of pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, wearing a harmless smile and humbling herself to flatter all the seniors in the sales department. In particular, she spares no effort in praising Liu Shiru, making her eyes sparkle with joy, and refrains from coldly mocking her any longer
Cheng Feng quickly replied to the text message. The speed of his response made Qi Dong feel his anticipation and joy. Qi Dong thought that she had achieved a preliminary victory. Yet, she felt a bit uneasy
Qi Dong replied to the message: "Haha! It is a must to treat!"
A text message follows: "After signing the contract, you must treat us!"
She repeatedly reminded herself that details are crucial to success or failure. Occasionally, she would dress casually, and at other times, she would wear the company's pencil skirt suit, always adorned with the gentle and pure smile that Cheng Feng admired. Qi Dong no longer wore high heels to the office.
Qi Dong decided to observe closely from a short distance
She set her phone aside, took a sip of coffee, which was rich with a hint of bitterness
The only person who seemed to have a problem with her was Liu Shiru. Her phoenix eyes were never serious when looking at others, glancing at Qi Dong at a forty-five degree angle, carrying a condescending air as she remarked: "With Qi Dong being so beautiful, how could the boss bear not to sign the contract?"
In the end, Qi Dong emerged victorious in this tug-of-war. Cheng Feng surrendered and promptly reminded Qi Dong that the contract had been signed, and she was obliged to fulfill her promise to treat him to a meal
She remembered a truth: whoever falls in love first is the one who suffers. Qi Dong tightly held her breath. No matter how affectionate and smiling their eye contact was in the corridor, she did not take the initiative to invite Cheng Feng.
On that day, Qi Dong drove the car
Qi Dong reminded him: "Manager Cheng, you must keep this confidential. Otherwise, everyone in the company will say that I am biased! If Sister Shuru finds out, I will be in big trouble"
The contract has not been stamped for a day, and the salespeople can only laugh it off, absolutely unwilling to reveal how the goods in their hands are selling. Qi Dong has not yet completed her assessment of Cheng Feng's quality; she will never so quickly expose her intentions in front of Cheng Feng.
Interactions between men and women often unfold in ambiguity. When reaching a critical point, one party will inevitably feel compelled to unveil this layer of obscurity
Qi Dong sighed and teased him: "Manager Cheng probably hasn't gone undercover in a long time. It's quite common for a little woman from the public to admire her leader. It's also normal for the leader not to know that someone admires him!"
The most challenging aspect of sales is at the beginning of one's career, when there are no connections and everything feels uncertain, akin to a cow trying to eat a pumpkin without knowing where to start. Countless salespeople toil for three months, only to be ruthlessly dismissed at the end of their probation period due to lack of performance. For Qi Dong, securing this order signifies that she has truly established her position within the company
Qi Dong's heart twitched. The man got into character so quickly; she hadn't even started the puppet show and he was already jumping in, which did not align with her planned rhythm! Qi Dong chuckled and shook her head, saying: "Not at all, it is Liu Yuhe!"
Cheng Feng couldn't help but chuckle, staring at Qi Dong with his hands raised in a gesture of helplessness: "It's over. I have no recollection!"
Qi Dong did not find any other reason to walk into the legal department's office again, nor did he send a text message to Cheng Feng
The most notable change is from the Ministry of Human Resources, which has notified Qi Dong to submit various materials to complete the social security pension procedures and to sign a formal employment contract
It is still too early to make a decision, and the rumors have become widely known within the company, which is indeed unwise. However, Qi Dong cannot remind them in this manner and can only use Liu Shiru's name as a pretext.
Fingers gently glided across the window, gradually forming a person's name. Qi Dong's eyes slowly filled with tears as she softly said: "I am working hard to sell myself. A marriage without love is not important. What matters is that the after-sales service must be good. Only then can there be ... ... happiness"
A mysterious glimmer flashed in Cheng Feng's eyes, and he smiled gently before lowering his voice to say: "Our secret! We won't tell anyone!"
According to Chinese law, the employing company must complete these procedures for employees within three months. In reality, very few can truly accomplish this. Qi Dong's boss is a Chinese national holding a German passport. Despite bearing the title of a wholly foreign-owned enterprise, the practices remain fundamentally Chinese, splitting the probation period into two parts: the first three months as probation and the subsequent five months as internship, effectively extending the probation period to eight months.
Since Liu Shiru leaned on him at the annual meeting, clinging to him while drinking and acting coy, the entire company has been buzzing about it. Liu Shiru does not shy away from it and openly goes to the legal department to find Cheng Feng. The matter of the beautiful sales manager pursuing Cheng Feng is known to everyone.
Last time there was a reason for not driving; if she doesn't drive again this time, it will be clear that she wants Cheng Feng to take her home
To secure the interior before repelling external threats. Qi Dong devoted all his thoughts to Cheng Feng.
