Ding Yao wore a light pink hip skirt today, which made her look gentle and intellectual.

She looks young and dull, like a fledgling college student.

But her actual age should not be too young. After all, facing a meeting with more than 20 people, including department directors and the company's powerful people, she did not feel awkward at all and even performed very easily.

At the meeting, Ding Yao gave a detailed explanation of the document sent to the department group yesterday.

She laid out the department's reform plan from big to small, in a thorough and detailed manner.

This made everyone present concentrate and get into her rhythm.

Wen Ran did the same and even ignored the existence of Yan Wangshu.

Finally, Ding Yao talked about the optimization of the employee promotion mechanism, which focuses on increasing fair competition opportunities for every employee in the department.

For example, the 'Apollo Jewelry Design Competition', which is coveted by all designers and offers a chance to make a name for themselves, not only continues the previous rules, but also adds two more spots for the Product Design Department.

Although there are only two, it is still an opportunity that everyone can compete for.

The specific rules are that the designer who wins the commercial design competition in two time periods, January and June each year, will be selected.

It's already July, and everyone thought this opportunity would have to wait until January next year.

Ding Yao said the most beautiful words at this time, touching on everyone's immediate interests, “Although it is already July, I don't want the talents in our department to lose any opportunities, so I asked the company in advance to get this opportunity for everyone.”

Everyone held their breath unconsciously and listened to her next words.

Ding Yao spoke under everyone's expectant gaze, “In order to be fair, the commercial facilities used for each assessment are personally selected by President Yan .”

After saying that, she turned her gaze to the back of the conference room.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Yan Wangshu.

The light was dim to begin with, and coupled with the distance, it was difficult to see clearly.

But Wen Ran saw it clearly.

Viewed from the side, he has high brow bones and a high nose bridge, and looks dignified and elegant, while the strong jawline adds a touch of wildness.

Yan Wangshu was not at all moved by being the focus, and said calmly, “I sent it to your email.”

Ding Yao operates the computer and switches the pages on the big screen to display the business design for this assessment.

An old necklace was displayed on the big screen. The pendant was an oval piece of white ice jade, with the specifications of the jade next to it.

Ding Yao slid the mouse and introduced, “This is the necklace that the elders in the family gave to Miss Zhong when she was just born. Miss Zhong wants to use this rough stone to redesign her adulthood gift this year. She has no special requirements; she just wants a ring.”

To put it simply, it is to design a ring using this white ice jade as the main stone.

Ding Yao finished his introduction and stood sideways next to the big screen. “All designers in the department can submit their works. The deadline for submission is next Friday.”

Today is already Friday, which means we have seven days, including the weekend, to submit our finished design ideas.

Time can be said to be very tight.

Ding Yao gave everyone a few seconds to think about the situation, then said, “In the interest of fairness, I will not make any judgment.”

Then who will do it?

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

Ding Yao's lips curled up, “In the first round, the director will remove the less creative works, in the second round, President Yan will remove the inappropriate works, and the third round will be decided by the client.”

It sounds fair, but it's not easy to get through so many hurdles.

There were some quiet discussions in the meeting room.

When Ding Yao had almost finished speaking, the director who had been sitting in the upper right position stood up.

He talked about some of the latest decisions made by the company's top management. Compared with the past, the company will pay more attention to the sinking market in the future, and the Counter Product Design Department is an important part of the company's development of the sinking market, so the department will be more valued than before.

Finally, he expressed his support for all of Ding Yao's plans.

The meeting is almost over here.

Adjusting the brightness of the lights, Ding Yao smiled and said, “There are only two months left for the 'Apollo Jewelry Design Competition'. Confident colleagues may wish to prepare in advance.”

A colleague stood up and asked, “Mona, I want to ask a question.”

“Well, go ahead.”

“If I get a place in the competition this time, but don't have time to prepare for the competition, can I keep the place until next year?”

Many people want to ask this question.

A complete draft design must be produced within one week. The time is tight and the competition is approaching. I can’t just use the hard-earned spot to do nothing.

Ding Yao seemed to be thinking about something, and finally looked at Yan Wangshu.

Yan Wangshu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Of course.”

Instantly, everyone was given a tranquilizer.

Ding Yao, “Then today's meeting ends here. Adjourn.”

Ding Yao started packing up.

Colleagues in the department were packing up slowly, and no one stood up first because Yan Wangshu was still there.

Why is he sitting here and not leaving?

Wen Ran began to feel uneasy again.

After the director and Ding Yao left first, colleagues started to get up and leave one after another.

The colleague who was close to Yan Wangshu greeted him awkwardly before leaving, and Yan Wangshu nodded slightly in response.

Neither enthusiastic nor indifferent.

Ivy was not a fair person. She tapped Wen Ran's elbow, gave him a meaningful look, and then stood up and smiled at Yan Wangshu, “President Yan, I'm going to work first.”

Yan Wangshu said “hmm” softly.

Ivy ran away like an unlady.

Wen Ran didn't care about that and quickly closed the notebook without standing up.

Yan Wangshu suddenly asked, “When are we leaving?”

Walk?

It should be about when you will resign!

Can't you just not leave?

Wen Ran's words rolled in his throat, “I'm not leaving.”

“What?” He didn't hear clearly.

Wen Ran looked up and looked straight at him.

The moment their eyes met, my face felt a little hot because of my own inconsistency. “I'm not leaving.”

Yan Wangshu said nothing and kept a restrained expression.

Wen Ran stood up, stepped back, and said politely, “President Yan, I'm going to work first.”

After saying that, Wen Ran turned around quickly.

Another question came from behind, “What's wrong with your knee?”

“???” Wen Ran hugged the notebook to his chest and turned stiffly, “Huh?”

Yan Wangshu indicated the position of her knees.

Wen Ran lowered his head.

She wore a skirt today that was above her knees, revealing the bruises on her knees.

I got the bruise from accidentally bumping into my desk yesterday.

Wen Ran retracted her foot slightly, “It's okay, thank you President Yan for your concern.”

After saying this, he trotted out without caring about etiquette.

Wen Ran breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the meeting room.

She consoled herself that she would not stay at Carlyle Company for long anyway, and as for the bad image she would have in front of her boss by going back on her word...

Never mind!

Normally, you won’t feel awkward just by watching him hide away!

Wen Ran returned to his workstation and was grabbed by Ivy's wrist. “You finally came out.”

“...”

Ivy patted her chest in fear, “Why did President Yan come? He came if he wanted to, and he even sat next to us, making me afraid to say a word. I was almost suffocated to death.”

Normally during meetings, Ivy would always use her position to whisper into Wen Ran's ear, but today she really didn't say a word.

It's really difficult for her to be such a chatterbox.

Ding Yao sent the business design information and today's meeting minutes to the group file.

Ivy opened the online preview and sighed, “What a pity.”

Ivy turned around and saw Wen Ran had downloaded and saved all the information. She immediately went over to gossip, “You want to participate?”

“Um.”

“No, time is so tight...” Ivy thought for two seconds and felt that Wen Ran was indeed a bit dull, so she curled her lips and reminded her, “We just arrived at the company, isn't it okay?”

Wen Ran tilted his head, his face full of serious doubts, “What's wrong?”

“We are interns. If we get a place, what will the seniors think?”

Those seniors naturally lost face.

If they have no face, then our lives will probably be difficult.

So Ivy felt that she shouldn't go.

She gave Wen Ran another serious analysis, “Even though no one showed any concern about what happened to you yesterday, it's still a knot in our hearts. If you still want to step forward at this time, I'm afraid...”

In fact, Wen Ran could understand Ivy's concerns, but she didn't have those worries.

Wen Ran thought of an excuse, “I did offend a lot of people yesterday, so I think that since things have come to this, I might as well seize the opportunity.”

Ivy was startled, but then she thought, that's Right.

She couldn't help but admire, “Great, Wen Ran.”

“ah?”

“You are so smart. Since there is no need to maintain interpersonal relationships, why not go for it? You are really smart.”

Wen Ran smiled shyly. She didn't really think so.

She just thought that Ding Yao's reforms were good and fair, and she seemed to be one step closer to Flower Filigree Incense Box.

At noon, Li Wan came to find Wen Ran after lunch and said that he wanted to treat her to a meal at the weekend to express his gratitude because of Mrs. Wong.

Wen Ran had already made an appointment with Ivy, so he could only decline.

Ivy heard it and said that if the three of them worked together, wouldn’t that solve the problem?

The three of them hit it off and formed a small group of three.

At 5:15 in the afternoon, Ivy started packing up and getting ready to get off work.

She put her things away and saw that she still had five minutes left before the end of the shift. She played with her nails for a while out of boredom and turned her head to see Wen Ran still concentrating on drafting the design.

If she remembered correctly, Wen Ran didn't even drink a sip of water or go to the toilet that whole afternoon.

Ivy felt a little sorry for Wen Ran's efforts.

After all, she is a newcomer, how can she stand out so easily? The harder she works now, the more disappointed she will be later!

But Ivy couldn't say anything to undermine her confidence.

Ivy was almost counting the time. When it was time to get off work, she immediately turned off her computer and prepared to leave.

As luck would have it, Ding Yao walked out of the office just as her computer screen went black.

Ivy thought, dead! Dead!

She has to maintain her image as a hard worker.

Ivy pressed the power button several times in a hurry, but the computer didn't respond, so she quickly used her backpack to cover the black computer screen.

Ding Yao walked past the front of the office carrying a bag and waved, “See you next week, colleagues!”

Then walk out in style.

Ivy breathed a sigh of relief and shut down the computer which was slow to react and suddenly turned on the screen.

She said hello to Wen Ran, “Wen Ran, see you tomorrow.”

Wen Ran looked up and smiled at her, “See you tomorrow.”

When he raised his head, Wen Ran realized belatedly that his neck was sore.

She put down her drawing board and leaned back to relax her neck.

Before leaving, Ivy said with emotion, “This new supervisor who leaves work on time is really...special.”

Wen Ran felt that it was more than special.

It's also very powerful.

Ding Yao doesn't seem to be aggressive at all, and he speaks and acts in a casual manner, giving people the feeling that he is not distant like a leader and is easy to get along with.

But in such a short period of time, she quietly and quietly gained the recognition of her colleagues in the department.

Yesterday, she was openly trying to resolve the conflict between Wen Ran and Xiang Xiaoyue.

In fact, everyone knows that it was she who asked Wu Yunshan to personally deal with his own people, Xiang Xiaoyue.

Wu Yunshan has had some prestige in the department over the years. Besides, her colleagues in Group II have benefited a lot from her work, so they naturally support her.

Logically speaking, the sudden change in the situation would not be enough to shake Wu Yunshan's position in the department.

In addition, Ding Yao had just taken office, and he immediately tried to suppress Wu Yunshan. This behavior not only failed to establish his authority, but could even have a counterproductive effect.

Under such circumstances, the situation quickly reversed as she released the key points of the department's reform plan in the work group and improved everyone's actual interests.

A series of actions to establish authority and win people's hearts.

Wen Ran glanced around the office. Today was Friday and it had been a while since the end of get off work, but only a few colleagues had left.

On normal Fridays, most people leave at the appointed time.

Because it involves their own direct interests; because they have to strive to obtain a place in the competition and time is very tight; and because everyone has their own tasks at hand.

Therefore, working hard and working overtime have become something I am willing to do.

Ding Yao said that everyone should leave work on time and “set an example”, but the reality is that everyone works overtime for themselves without complaint.

Wen Ran originally thought that Ivy was good at understanding the ways of the world and people's hearts.

Only now do I realize that Ding Yao is the person at the top of the pyramid.
