Chapter 1487: Chapter 1143: No Regrets (2)
Anyone who holds the director position here is a well-known figure in the industry!
No matter how capable Han Xiaodan is, at most she could become a department manager, and after a few years of nurturing, be slowly promoted.
He never expected that General Ma would propose making her the Vice President of Operations!
Strictly speaking, this is essentially the second-in-command of the entire company...
But the question is, does Han Xiaodan really have that much "power"?
It seems he still underestimated this girl, and undervalued her...
...
After snapping out of it, Han Xiaodan hesitated and said, "General Ma... this... I’m afraid I can’t handle this position."
She was quite self-aware. Although she had some confidence in her abilities, Han Xiaodan hadn’t gotten arrogant enough to think she could manage a company as large as the Facebook China Company!
That’s the Vice President of Operations, responsible for the entire company’s development!
Perhaps General Ma gave her this high position because she was introduced by Wang Ye, trying to curry favor with Wang Ye, but she couldn’t be ungrateful.
If she messed things up, how could she face Brother Ye in the future and speak to him confidently...
So Han Xiaodan wanted to refuse this position!
President Liu, who was beside her, opened his mouth slightly, his eyes widened. He never thought General Ma would appoint Han Xiaodan as the Vice President of Operations!
From intern directly to the company’s vice president, how many levels does that leap over...
Regular employee, team leader, department supervisor, large department manager, business unit director, only then to vice president!
This is still because the business of Facebook China is relatively simple now, and the organizational structure is relatively flat, so there aren’t many business units. In the future, if there are more businesses involved, they might have to divide into business groups or branches!
Instinctively, he wanted to oppose it because after all, he was the President of Facebook and had to be responsible for the company development, and even the Group President couldn’t directly promote a "newcomer" to the position of vice president over him.
But as the words were about to come out, President Liu swallowed them back, because he remembered General Ma’s words earlier had already made it clear, this was a "board decision"!
Listen carefully, it was a board decision, not something General Ma decided himself.
What does this mean, it means this matter has already been settled, and even if he opposes it, it won’t make any difference.
In fact, if it’s a matter of either he or Han Xiaodan having to leave, there’s a good chance it would be him...
He was a smart man, very confident in Facebook’s development and very satisfied with his salary and benefits.
Of course, he wouldn’t fall out with the parent company over the issue of a vice president appointment.
Moreover, didn’t General Ma also say that, after Han Xiaodan becomes the Vice President of Operations, she will still report to him.
Being a veteran in the workplace, President Liu understood that General Ma intended for him to guide Han Xiaodan more and help her when needed!
Since that was the case, President Liu wasn’t too worried. At most, Han Xiaodan would just be of little help to him, but she wouldn’t mess anything up either.
Perhaps the board appointed Han Xiaodan to the position of vice president at this critical junction before Facebook’s going public to allocate more original shares to her?!
Looking at it this way, Han Xiaodan’s background might be even bigger than imagined...
...
Understanding the crux of this, President Liu quickly changed his mindset, and smilingly advised:
"Han, I also think you are very suitable for the Vice President of Operations position. As General Ma said, you’re the most senior employee in Facebook, even more so than I am, haha...
Besides, over the years, your work performance has been obvious to all. No matter what position you are in, you have always worked diligently and exceeded work expectations without any complaints!
Moreover, all colleagues have great evaluations of you, considering you an excellent employee.
Also, Facebook’s business is a new trend on the internet, requiring a younger and more innovative operational mindset, so your age is actually an advantage.
After all, you’re a young person, and you naturally understand young people’s thoughts on the internet better than us old folks.
Therefore, I raise both hands in agreement with the board’s decision!"
Well, after hearing him speak like this, Han Xiaodan felt embarrassed to refuse again. With both executives earnestly persuading her, if she pushed it away again, wouldn’t it seem a bit "ungrateful"?
Thus, she could only nod and agree, becoming the Vice President of Operations for Facebook China Company...
Once this appointment was announced, it naturally caused quite a stir within the company.
Many employees were secretly discussing, wondering about the background of this suddenly appointed "Vice President Han"!
She actually jumped from being an intern directly to the Vice President of Operations position.
In fact, even President Liu was very curious about this matter. After their conversation ended that day, once Han Xiaodan left, he directly asked General Ma about it.
The answer General Ma gave was a bit vague, simply saying this girl was actually an agent for a major shareholder, and her previous stint as an intern was just training her.
Even this Vice President of Operations position was not Han Xiaodan’s "end point," in a few years, she would join the board!
President Liu suddenly realized, oh, she was someone from a major shareholder, no wonder...
...
One day at the end of August, Han Xiaodan received a notice to lead a team to Moscow to communicate operational experience with the headquarters.
Of course, even though it was called headquarters, Facebook Russia didn’t have direct control over Facebook China, and even only owned a small portion of the shares.
Thus, Han Xiaodan took some colleagues from the operations department to Moscow.
She had a fondness for this city. After all, during the summer vacation after graduating high school, her mom took her for a tour here, and Han Xiaodan won a million US dollars prize!
It seemed it was from that day onwards, her destiny subtly began to change.
Prior to that, Han Xiaodan didn’t consider herself a lucky person, having never found money on the street all her life — what kind of luck was that...
But since winning the jackpot, a series of good fortunes came her way.
She met Wang Ye, who then introduced her to work at Tencent, and later Facebook China was being prepared, and she was transferred here, where she worked for several years.
Even though she was just an intern at Facebook, the perks the company offered were not low.
Han Xiaodan was the only student among her peers who didn’t need to ask for money from her family through university, living comfortably on her salary alone.
Not to mention, just the day after graduation, she was appointed as the Vice President of Operations, soaring directly to success!
This Vice President of Operations position didn’t just bring about a change in title, but a direct change in salary as well.
As an intern, her salary went from an initial five thousand to twelve thousand before graduating with a master’s degree — not considered low at all.
However, upon taking up the Vice President of Operations role, her salary directly became three million a year, excluding year-end bonuses and stock incentives...
One could say she had long surpassed her peers by a great margin!
Which caused no boys to dare pursue her, even Assistant Li, who previously had a slight affection for her, either felt inferior or learned of Han Xiaodan’s background, and now avoided her when seeing her...
...
Upon arriving in Moscow, the Facebook Russia company warmly welcomed Han Xiaodan and her colleagues, and after normal work exchanges, a dinner was originally planned.
However, the Embassy suddenly contacted Han Xiaodan, saying there was an urgent matter to discuss with her, and sent a car to pick her up.
Han Xiaodan was puzzled, not knowing why the Embassy suddenly sought her out.
Nonetheless, she informed her colleagues and the Facebook Russia company and then got into the car heading to the Embassy.
Who Han Xiaodan never thought she would meet next.
