Chapter 781: Seven hundred seventy-six, a promotion opportunity

This made him feel a bit more relaxed inside, as at the very least Gu Zhen was willing to talk.

What he feared was that Gu Zhen would get upset and then just cast him aside.

Of course, being cast aside would be bad enough, but what he truly feared was that afterwards, he might be fired outright.

Faced with such a situation, at this moment he chose to be even bolder and express the only thought in his heart right then.

"Chairman, I was thinking about the upcoming business interactions between our company and MaoTai Company."

"I would like to take the lead and help relieve you of a little bit of pressure, sir. Of course, I mean nothing else by this, I truly just want to do some more work."

After he finished speaking, Gu Zhen immediately understood his intentions.

After all, Gu Zhen was no fool; the other had made his meaning quite clear, and if he still couldn’t understand, then he himself would indeed be very foolish.

At this very moment, the young man appeared extremely nervous, not even daring to raise his head and look Gu Zhen in the eye.

It was as if the words he had just spoken had committed some grave offense.

This reaction left Gu Zhen feeling a bit of an amused frustration.

He didn’t understand how the man’s train of thought worked.

Why he would be so scared after saying just a few words.

With this attitude, how could he properly interface with MaoTai White Wine Company?

But of course, Gu Zhen actually understood very well.

What was on his mind.

In fact, from what he had just said, Gu Zhen could understand.

The man before him actually wanted to seize more opportunities for himself and, if conditions allowed, ideally earn a promotion and a raise.

Except for Gu Zhen himself, this man was the only other executive in the company.

By all logic, increasing his salary and position, Gu Zhen felt, was quite reasonable.

So, this matter was actually negotiable.

However, Gu Zhen didn’t want him to approach their interaction with this kind of attitude; he preferred a firmer stance from him at this moment.

"You want to interface with Maotai White Wine Company, but what are your plans exactly?"

Gu Zhen asked him that at this time.

After Gu Zhen asked this question, he could see that he became even more nervous.

"I mainly want to demonstrate a serious, responsible attitude and learn about the culture of the other company."

"To learn from their strengths and then come back and manage our company well."

"To ensure that our company’s employees possess professional skills that are not inferior to those at Maotai White Wine Company."

At this moment, he spoke as if discussing his grand future with an interviewer.

After listening, Gu Zhen smiled and nodded as well.

He didn’t immediately reject his ideas.

Because to Gu Zhen, his thoughts were quite interesting actually.

It appeared he had prepared this speech for a long time.

But to Gu Zhen, this wasn’t taboo.

Because at the very least, it showed that before coming to him, he had done his homework and seriously considered what responsibilities he was willing to take on, and what consequences he was willing to face.

Gu Zhen actually appreciated this quality a little bit.

"The things you’ve just proposed aren’t impossible,"

suddenly said Gu Zhen at that time.

After he spoke, it was clear to see that the eyes of the man before him instantly brightened significantly.

"However, everything has a prerequisite. If I let you interface with the white wine company,

and during this process, any action of yours displeases the other company,

"Or maybe at certain critical junctures, it was because of you that the cooperation had problems."

"You also have to bear all the consequences, are you clear about that?"

At this moment, Gu Zhen seemed to be setting down the principles, asking him in this way.

After hearing these questions from Gu Zhen, he suddenly became incredibly determined.

"I am aware of the consequences I might have to bear.

I am willing and dare to take on such responsibility.

I just hope that you, Chairman, can give me an opportunity to try."

He said this to Gu Zhen at this time.

His gaze was extremely resolute, even showing a sworn confidence as if success was assured once the matter was entrusted to him.

Gu Zhen gave him another look after hearing this.

This kind of look seemed to be assessing his competence.

At that instant, it made the guy even more nervous.

"Fine, if you want to try, then go ahead and try.

However, I have already told you about the consequences of this matter.

As for your position, for now, you’ll be the main person in charge of this partnership.

About your salary, it will be doubled from your original base, are you satisfied with that?

If there’s anything you don’t understand or can’t accept,

we can continue to talk, after all, everything is negotiable."

At this time, he also made things very clear to Wang Shuo.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuo’s reaction could only be described in two words: thrilled.

For him, the fact that Gu Zhen had agreed was already incredibly fortunate.

Previously, the three managers of the sales department had been dismissed for insubordination,

and even gave off a slight impression of forcing and threatening Gu Zhen.

As a result, Gu Zhen kicked them out.

He also let go of a significant number of sales staff. Now, he was the only manager left in the sales department.

At this moment, his heart was certainly tense.

After all, he was worried about being kicked out of the company just like the previous three.

But he felt it shouldn’t come to this.

After all, he had been working hard all this time,

never slacking off for a single day.

If Gu Zhen paid even a little attention to him, he would see that he had been working as if his life depended on it every single day.

As the saying goes, people strive for higher positions as water flows to lower places.

This opportunity was something he couldn’t afford to miss.

Especially now, during this special phase of cooperation with Maotai Liquor Company.

He was well aware that only by connecting with Maotai Liquor Company would advancing his position become possible.

Whether the branch would continue to open relied on his recent interactions with Gu Zhen, and by guessing Gu Zhen’s personality,

he could pretty much deduce that the branch office would surely be established.

But whether it would be in Haicheng, that was less certain.

He knew Gu Zhen was not one to give up easily.

That’s why he made such a confident vow at this time.

This small city of his today seemed like the start of a new journey of destiny for him.

As long as he could tread this path smoothly, he believed Gu Zhen would value him even more.

Moreover, once they partnered with Maotai Liquor Company, it would definitely not be a short-term project, meaning more opportunities to distinguish himself.
