Inevitably, at Thursday's conference, the idea of ​​R&D adding a mega-team mode was on the agenda again.

The number of people attending the meeting today is still spectacular, because everyone needs to keep a distance of one meter between each other during the meeting, and large-scale meetings are prohibited. Empty and depressed.

This is my battle with Kevin.It's a pity that he is destined to win, and I with a broken leg is just a defeated hero.

Just like the previous discussion about the ownership of the R&D department, the big boss, COO, CTO, and Miss Pan De all attended the meeting; Chief Liang was still not there. Which way the department will go in the future seems indifferent.

The CTO attended via video conference.His picture is placed on the left hand side of the big boss, which makes people feel a little out of place.It would be too difficult for him to exist as a computer and participate in a meeting attended by so many people.

If the person who will speak later is at the end on the left, wouldn't he be unable to see the person or hear the voice?Immediately, I thought of Jocelyn, who was closest to the computer, holding a notebook and following the speaker in circles. I almost couldn't help it, it was too dangerous.

Old Huang's eyebrows moved.There were so many people talking, I couldn't lean over to whisper to him, so I typed.A few seconds later, Huang Xiuwen burst out laughing, held back too much, and coughed for a few seconds, causing everyone to look sideways.

BCG's attitude today is much firmer than before.In the first half, I was basically in a power-saving state. If I didn't speak, Kevin certainly wouldn't have the possibility of showing off.Maybe he really felt lonely, so he took the initiative to pull me off: "Yao, regarding this issue, will your thoughts change this week?"

If the air can freeze, what is diffused in the large meeting room is the sound of freezing.

"I'll tell you when it's my turn," I met his eyes, the aggression in his eyes must have been obvious, "you can look forward to it."

Because the feedback given by Kevin is too full.

The big boss held his forehead and rubbed his temples.Xu Xin coughed twice, said sorry and continued the process.

Miss Pender's eyes collided with mine many times in the first half.She should really change her career to be a politician or an actor. What happened yesterday was like a pebble thrown into the ocean, leaving no waves.It seems that being a superior also requires talent. Some people's precise control of proportion is so perfect that it seems natural.

Of course, it is only limited to the presence of so many people.

Oddly enough, her eyes don't have exact meaning.Due to the clear request in advance, at the beginning, I thought she was reminding me to take action as soon as possible.

but no.Nothing at all.There is neither reproach nor urging in her eyes, it seems that only calm and restraint are gathering together, and she is focused and free from beginning to end.I am willing to believe this illusion. After all, she is my half-boss, the object of my work, and the enemy I will fight to the death. How can she not be strong?Assuming that her abilities are limited, wouldn't it be that I, who seems to be retreating steadily, are extremely embarrassed?

But if Miss Pender was really paying attention, there would be no reason for our countless eye contact.Like her, I was just a bystander in this half-time meeting.

The situation has changed virtually.Xu Xin called my name, and the meeting entered the second half.

My presentations always pursue pragmatism. If it were not for the meeting with BCG, I am afraid that I would rarely have the opportunity to write slides that are so visible to the naked eye today.This is a compromise solution. It doesn't talk about anything high-level from a macro perspective. It only limits the scope to a small world of departments involved in the optimization framework.

I know that this proposal is unlikely to pass.What Miss Pan De said that day was so clear, BCG should have a well-thought-out idea of ​​which departments to keep and which departments to leave.But I promised her that I would explain my thoughts on the new company's personnel structure to her in writing one day in the future.

If the matter is irreversible, I don't want to drag the company's legs just to vent my anger.

The whole presentation went smoothly, no one interrupted me or asked questions.Compared with the free and easy ramblings mentioned in the previous meeting with Miss Pan De, the plan officially proposed today is much more moderate and realistic. The BCG side listened the most attentively. On our side, the higher-ups were more interested, especially the big boss. I felt that he would be caught and questioned in detail after the meeting.

In the questioning session, Kevin picked several thorns in a row, but it didn't matter.I should let him, I know, I should let him at this time.But in the face of all kinds of proposals proposed in this plan, he had no preparations in advance, and I had planned for a long time, how could I allow someone to easily trample on the fruits of my labor?

In the past, a small country in the southwest, facing the envoys of the Han Dynasty, made an eternal joke of "Which Han is greater than me?"

Today, I feel that I resonate with the ancients of Yelang Kingdom.

Miss Pender personally vetoed my proposal.

"Yao's proposal is practical and constructive." She was the last to speak, and the words carried the most weight. "There are many places in this plan that are worth exploring in depth, which will bring great benefits to our resource integration work." for your help. Thank you, Yao, and I'll make sure our team thoroughly researches the key.

"On the other hand, Kevin's questions are exactly what I am concerned about. I feel that there is indeed such a possibility that, from some angles, your understanding of the giant team model still...needs to dig deeper. Maybe Some things that are less relevant to the objective," she deliberately used very complicated words, "experience, which prevents your understanding. For future work, I hope you can continue to work hard."

A hammer is fixed.

She didn't even give me an extra look, and it was Kevin's turn.

It's not that I didn't think they would refuse.When I was writing a draft of this proposal, I was ready to be rejected, I just thought... I did my part.

I didn't expect them to refuse on the spot, let alone Ms. Pan De who rejected me on behalf of BCG.

The general situation has passed, and my attention is drawn away from observing the expressions of the participants to ponder the wording of the proposal later.It's meaningless and disrespectful to break the jar here. With this time, I might as well try to gain a little more strategic depth for the company.

Kevin wants to quarrel, of course, I also want to show my prestige in a different place.Today, the partner of BCG personally endorsed for him. If I don’t go to hell to cheer him up, who should go to hell?However, among the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang could endure teasing and put on shoes for others, Han Xin was once humiliated by the crotch, Xiao Hewei dispelled Han Gaozu’s doubts, and even polluted himself. How can ordinary people understand such dormancy?I want to cooperate with him to quarrel, but I will humiliate myself.

The big boss also gave up completely. I think he lacked interest in this new change, but he didn't stop it.

What is blocking is not as good as sparse, and follow the trend, I only understand today.I thought he was negative, but I didn't know that the big boss had already seen the situation clearly, the chance of winning was so small, and only by following the trend could there be a chance of survival.

No one in the company knows the group's intentions better than the big boss.

There were two managers in the R&D department, as if they had finally caught up with the rhythm, stood up and were dying.I can't bear to watch it. It's normal for a technical colleague to be a little slow in these things.The ruler is short and the inch is long, so it is very important to know how to hide your clumsiness. If you really don't know how to adapt, at least you have to consider the timing a little bit.

Assuming that the probability of them realizing the seriousness of the problem is averaged over time, it may be a bit too far to pick such a bad time slot... I suddenly understood Liang Heng's avoidance. Everyone will feel the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox, changing his position, feeling powerless, is he so angry that he vomits blood?

I have no way of knowing how the CTO who only exists in the computer feels at the moment.

As the meeting drew to a close, I took out the second-hand preparations I had made earlier.These suggestions are all considered from the standpoint of BCG or the group. Generally speaking, I still inherit the ideas in my plan, but the details are very different. I seek stability and precision, but I can’t talk about the current situation. Any changes, at most, can be regarded as planting a few nails that have not seen the light of day.

They were very interested, and one of the proposals on cross-departmental training aroused heated discussions, and even Miss Pender praised it.She rarely expressed her opinion on our specific work, and today should be regarded as the most frequent one.I was surprised: Is she trying to save face for me?Or maybe just a casual mention?

In the second half, she still looked at me from time to time, but the aim was more concealed and the time was shorter; I didn't respond to her, maybe she thought she hadn't been noticed.

Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration: Does she think I am angry again?

I glanced at her, and Miss Pender just looked over, her expression froze for a moment, and then her eyes flowed to Kevin who was speaking.

Today's meeting is really useless.Lao Huang didn't say a word after my advance notice, the boss watched the fire from the other side, and the children admired the hundred postures that I was roasted as a skewer by Miss Pan De.Everyone at the managerial level frowned, perhaps feeling a chill.

The situation is irreversible, and the giant team mode has officially changed to "Nothing" starting today.Unlike my slump, Kevin shined in the session, and his solo show continued until the end of the agenda.

And when the crowd dispersed, I understood.

The company is at its wit's end.
