Seven

Duanmulian suffered from insomnia.

Sitting in front of the desk rubbing his temples with a sore body and depressed spirit, he patted his forehead against the mountains of documents that had been left unused for two days and left all irrelevant things behind, telling himself that work was important.

Duanmulian has gradually become independent from his father's "assistant", and now he is responsible for more substantive projects than he used to blindly study. This is even more distressing for Duanmulian, who is not good at management. Force yourself to pay attention.

However, as soon as you get upset, you get into trouble.

Now that July is the beginning, it is the day when Yezhou Group releases its annual magazine.It is no exaggeration to say that the Yezhou Group's status in the entire province and city is above ten thousand people.

Ye Zhou's annual magazine is divided into two volumes, which are economic and management books written by professional writers based on the summary reports of various departments.

Summarize the company's market trends for half a year, share personnel management methods, propose innovative and bold changes, and record some interesting office events, which can be used as both management enlightenment and entertainment.

Every year at this time, the name of Ye Zhou Annual will be on the sales lists of major bookstores.In previous years, another large-scale publishing company was always in charge of publishing and distribution. Unexpectedly, it extended an olive branch to Duanmu Group this year, which is tantamount to the greatest recognition for an enterprise.

This is the first major project that Duanmulian has faced since its work. It is a great honor for the company to be able to print the name of Duanmu Publishing House on the spine of Yezhou Annual, and it is also an important step to reflect its ability and gather people's hearts. treat.

Although he resented seeing things related to Ye Qing at this time, and even work made him uneasy, Duanmulian took a sip of coffee and looked through the contract helplessly.

In fact, the content is very simple. The book has been drafted, and it is nothing more than asking Duanmu Group to complete the follow-up work of editing, printing and publishing.

Duanmulian turned on the computer and wrote the plan tiredly, arranged editors and manpower, and reserved a place for the printing factory.

Based on Duanmulian’s experience, it is believed that only books such as dictionaries, yearbooks, and picture books that are used as collections or have special requirements will be bound in a hard case, so of course I ticked the option of paperback.

And half a month later, when all the books were printed and bound for acceptance, the person in charge of the project at Ye Zhou pointed it out furiously.

Duanmulian was dumbfounded at once, looking at the circle drawn with a red pen on the contract that almost tore through the paper, and the small words written in the remarks: hardcover, hardcover, binding.

There was a bang in his head that made his eyes darken, and he quickly stood up and apologized at a loss.

"I'm really sorry, please calm down. This is entirely our responsibility. I promise to reprint and bind it according to the requirements. I'm sorry for the loss of time and energy to your company. Our company will pay the corresponding proportion according to the contract. Please release the liquidated damages..."

"Now you know how to send us with liquidated damages? The marketing department has already done all the preparations. There are countless people who have made reservations. Besides, there are still three days before the release date. How dare you make such a foolish promise."

The middle-aged man leaned on the back of the chair irritably. He is the person in charge of this publishing work, so of course he does not want to bear joint and several liability. It is impossible to deliver the goods according to the time stipulated in the contract, so he can only force Duanmulian to rush Complete all books.

"I really don't understand that Director Ye would choose a third-rate company like yours for being negligent and not abiding by the contract. This is the first time I've seen a publishing house open the window, tsk."

Duanmu Lian's heart froze. He originally thought that Ye Qing wouldn't take care of such trivial matters as the publication of the annual magazine. He realized that the company's progress to the present was all thanks to that person's support. Now that he has made such a low-level mistake, Ye Qing...will definitely Very disappointed.

"... I am very sorry for failing to live up to your company's trust. I will definitely remake all the books within three days according to the requirements of the contract. It will not affect the sales on the shelves. Please forgive me if the small company is not doing well. "

Duanmulian spoke with confidence, but his heart was empty. He admitted that his abilities were limited, but he didn't want to be looked down upon by Ye Zhou's people, because it would make him feel... as if he was on the sidelines.

Although he is a cowardly, careless and poor manager, he can tolerate being pointed at, scolded and looked down upon by others, but he absolutely cannot break his promise to himself.

Sending away this hostile man, Duanmulian didn't have time to think about the consequences of his father's knowledge of this incident, so he ordered the printing factory to suspend all tasks and devote all his efforts to the reprint of Yezhou Annual, especially emphasizing the binding requirements.

Immediately afterwards, he turned on the computer to modify the plan, and confirmed the contract countless times.

After printing out the revised plan and asking for the final draft from the editorial department, Duanmu Lian drove to the nearby publishing companies one by one to negotiate, asking if the factories had idle personnel and equipment that could be borrowed temporarily. He prepared a stack of checks Don't hesitate to make great profits for this matter.

Duanmulian itself was timid and not talkative, so he had the courage to explain the situation to the person in charge of each company, then offered favorable conditions, and patiently communicated and discussed with the other party.

Although there was also a company that put on airs and taunted him to ask him to find another place, Duanmulian could only touch his nose and smile and say sorry.

But because of his politeness, modesty, prudence, and neither humble nor overbearing attitude, many companies agreed to take part of the burden for him.

But the expected goal was still not achieved. After all, there were only three days. Even if the factory was willing to do it, it could only be conservative in quantity and only promised to complete the fixed value.

The nearby factories have been almost all over, and there is still one-third of the final goal, but no factory is willing to take over.

It was already dark, and Duanmulian looked wearily at the red light in front of him. The pattering rain hit the windshield drop by drop without warning, and the street became blurred. Looking at the hurried pedestrians on the zebra crossing, he didn't know How can there be a kind of unreachable sadness.

In the days of the company, he didn't live like himself according to his father's wishes. He also wanted to be like an ordinary person, choose a suitable job, rush home after work, hug the person who is waiting for him to go home, and grow up with him Dinner, sharing joy or complaining about work, simple and light meals, common clothes and vegetables.

But after all, think about it.

It wasn't until the vehicle behind honked its horn to urge that Duanmulian came to his senses that the light had already turned green, and he started the car and continued to move forward.

He turned on the wiper but couldn't remove the blur in front of his eyes. He wiped the corners of his eyes hard with his cuff, and realized that this was all his own responsibility. It had to be done in order to make up for the mistakes he made, so he had no right to be wronged.

Thinking of the city's largest publishing company, Beifeng Group, Duanmulian is actually very reluctant to go, because this company has been publishing Yezhou Annuals in the past, but this year it was suddenly snatched away by their own family, maybe they don't even want to see it Even if he sees him, he will even make trouble, so it is definitely impossible to agree to his request.

However, there is still a third of the printing volume on hand that has not been settled. Judging from the current situation, there is no room for Duanmu Lenovo, so I can only be a desperate gambler and take one step at a time.
