Chapter 588 Disappointment
Chapter 588 Disappointment
After a long silence, she spoke with difficulty: "Mr. Li, I agree with the plan given by the company before. As long as I can get 500,000, I will hand over the account to you immediately."
Hearing this, Li Jiawei smiled, but there was no warmth in her smile: "That was the price we negotiated before. Times have changed. We don't have that condition now."
Zhang Ruiyan's emotions suddenly lost control. She stood up from the sofa, propped her hands on the table, leaned forward, and threatened fiercely: "Don't go too far! If you push me to the limit, I will just cancel this account. No one will have a good life!"
Her eyes were wide open and bloodshot, her face was filled with resentment and anger, and her voice trembled slightly with excitement.
Li Jiawei had a calm smile on her lips. She leaned back on the sofa, looked up and quietly looked at Zhang Ruiyan who was on the verge of losing control.
At this tense moment, Li Jiawei suddenly felt a surge of emotion in her heart. She deeply realized that in this contest, looking up or looking down is not equivalent to the strength of momentum. The real confidence comes from the inner calmness and the number of chips in hand.
She said slowly: "If you really do this, I will pretend that the company never had this account, and re-register and operate a new account. The company can still afford this cost.
But what about you? You have committed extortion, maliciously damaged the interests of the company, and you can't escape jail time. You have a family and children. Have you ever thought about what you will face after a few years in jail?"
Zhang Ruiyan's chest was heaving violently, and she tried to calm down. After a long while, she sneered and said, "Okay, you are cruel! So what do you want?" Although there was still resentment in her eyes, she also revealed helplessness and compromise.
Li Jiawei sat up straight, her expression becoming serious and earnest: "It's very simple, just hand over the account safely. As long as you cooperate, the company can let bygones be bygones, and will no longer pursue your threatening behavior in the past few days, nor the losses you have caused to the company." After saying that, she stared at Zhang Ruiyan, waiting for her reply.
Li Jiawei thought for a moment and looked at Zhang Ruiyan, "And think about it, you have been doing self-media operations at "Meishang" for so long, this work experience is a valuable asset that cannot be replaced by money.
There are only a handful of people in the market who have managed accounts with tens of millions of followers, and everyone can see that you are capable.”
Zhang Ruiyan raised her eyes with a wry smile and looked deeply at Li Jiawei, feeling mixed emotions.
Now she knew clearly that she had failed miserably and had no bargaining chips left. There was no point in saying more and it would only add to the embarrassment.
So, she turned around without saying a word and left Li Jiawei's office.
The moment she walked out of the door, Zhang Ruiyan thought about what Li Jiawei had just said. She was not a person who could not accept failure.
Moreover, during the past few years working at "Meishang", she has accumulated a lot of connections. She used to work alone and had no experience, but now with experience and connections, she can completely run another account on her own.
Just as Li Jiawei said, operating an account with over 10 million followers is not something that everyone can do casually.
With this resume, Zhang Ruiyan has the capital that others can hardly match no matter which company she changes jobs to or starts a new business by registering a new account.
The staff of "Meishang" watched Zhang Ruiyan walk out of President Li's office with a gloomy face. Without thinking too much, they knew that she didn't get any advantage from President Li.
Then I saw her walking straight towards the self-media operations office.
For a while, the office was full of discussions. An hour later, Zhang Ruiyan came out of the self-media operation office. Her expression became unusually calm, and no one could tell what she was thinking.
Afterwards, people in the office saw her walk to her workstation and pick up her personal belongings that had been packed long ago. She didn't even raise her eyelids the whole time, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. Then she walked towards the company gate without looking back, and her figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
Wu Ziqi had been keeping an eye on Zhang Ruiyan's movements. When he saw her leave the company completely, he turned and went to Li Jiawei's office.
She raised her hand and pushed the door open, and saw Li Jiawei talking on the phone with her back to her.
Wu Ziqi's steps could not help but tremble. She planned to wait until Li Jiawei finished her call before coming in. When she was about to leave the office, she saw Li Jiawei hung up the phone, turned to look at her, and asked, "Is Zhang Ruiyan gone?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Ziqi stopped retreating, took two quick steps forward, and gently closed the office door, then said, "She's gone. She has already handed over her account password, and the registration information has been changed according to the process.
Three people in the account operation team wanted to follow her."
Li Jiawei said: "There is no need to keep those who want to leave together."
Wu Ziqi said: "I know!"
At this point, Wu Ziqi looked straight at Li Jiawei and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Li, did you agree to her terms? Why did she agree to hand over her password and cooperate in changing her registration information?"
Li Jiawei smiled and said, "I didn't agree to any of her conditions. I just talked to her and analyzed the pros and cons."
When Wu Ziqi heard her say it so nonchalantly, he felt as if a bottle of seasoning had been overturned in his heart and felt very uncomfortable.
She and Zhang Ruiyan negotiated so many times and talked so hard, but she was rejected every time and there was no progress.
But Li Jiawei had only been at "Meishang" for a few hours when she neatly solved the problem that had been bothering her for a long time. In this comparison, she seemed particularly incompetent.
Thinking of this, Wu Ziqi felt anxious, his eyes were full of anxiety, and he looked at Li Jiawei cautiously, stammering: "Boss Li, I didn't do my job well this time, and I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
This time, Li Jiawei did not comfort Wu Ziqi as usual. Instead, she looked serious and said in a serious tone: "Ziqi, let me be frank. This incident fully exposed your shortcomings in dealing with problems. You really disappoint me."
She paused slightly, looked straight at Wu Ziqi, and continued, "You have to know that a magazine as large and influential as "Meishang" faces all kinds of emergencies every day.
This places extremely high demands on the editor-in-chief’s work ability. Not only must he always have a clear grasp of the overall situation and have a clear prediction of how events will develop, but he must also make quick decisions at critical moments and know how to respond in order to maximize the interests of Meishang. ”
At this point, Li Jiawei sighed: "But you, from your dealings with Zhang Ruiyan this time, I can see that you still lack the decisiveness to make decisions in complex situations, and the courage to make the final decision."
