Chapter 388 - Team Leader of Group Three (2/2)
Guan Tong took a step forward and loudly introduced himself, “Hello everyone, my name is Guan Tong, it’s very nice to meet you!”
There was some sporadic applause, nothing too intense.
“Ah Ler, I’m assigning Lil’ Guan to your team. Bring him around and help him familiarize with our work environment,” Mao Jianyi said.
“Okay.”
That man, going by the name of Ah Ler, walked up to shake hands with Guan Tong and said, “Hello Lil’ Guan, feel free to ask me anything you need to know, I will help you as much as I can.”
Guan Tong graciously greeted him with both of his hands and replied, “Sorry for troubling you, Brother Ah Ler.”
“You are a member of my team now, and it is my duty,” Ah Ler said, patting Guan Tong on his shoulder.
Subsequently, Guan Tong followed Ah Ler to his group’s section of the office. There was already an empty table reserved for him.
Before introducing Xiao Luo, Mao Jianyi coughed a few times to clear his throat, then with a little more enthusiasm, he said, “And now everyone, this is Xiao Luo, also a graduate from the Aeronautical University. He has worked in Huahai Corporation and Luo Workshop in Jiangcheng City. He came to Xiahai at the beginning of this year to develop his career and is now joining us here in Huayao. Please welcome him!”
There was another sparse round of applause, though with a little more enthusiasm than previously, especially among the female sales executives.
With Xiao Luo’s good looks, he appeared to be getting a more receptive response as one of the girls asked, “Xiao Luo, may I ask, what was your position in Huahai Corporation and Luo Workshop?”
“I was a product engineer,” Xiao Luo replied, consistent with the description on his resume.
“You’re an engineer? That should be technical work, am I right? Why did you suddenly switch to sales?”
“Sales is not as simple as entertaining and chatting with customers. A lot of knowledge is required in this line.”
“Yup, you will have to learn from scratch. Finding customers, getting customers, establishing your own customer base… there’s a lot for you to learn at every stage.”
The girls in the sales department begun talking excitedly, for, with a handsome male colleague, they somehow showed more interest in training him.
The only reason Xiao Luo had taken up the job with Huayao Corporation was because of Su Li, so it didn’t matter to him what others had to say.
Mao Jianyi coughed several more times again and said, “Xiao Li, you girls may have misjudged him. Do you know who the person who secured the Dubai order is?”
“Huh? Mr. Mao, are you saying that he is the one?” the girl who first spoke said in jest.
The others all had a coy smile on their faces. Evidently, no one believed that Xiao Luo was capable of doing so.
“Yes, you’re right… Xiao Luo is the one. Whether you believe it or not, it is the truth. In fact, Miss Shen has approved special conditions for his working hours, and he is allowed to schedule his own time,” Mao Jianyi replied, specifically to the girl named Xiao Li.
Huh?
Everyone was shocked to silence, realizing what they had thought was a joke turned out to be true. Even then, a few were still unconvinced.
“Mr. Mao, is this a joke?” Xiao Li said, giving Old Mao a doubtful look.
Mao Jianyi didn’t respond this time but simply turned to Xiao Luo and said, “Xiao Luo, that seat over there will be yours.”
Looking in the direction he was pointing, everyone was even more stunned, because that position belonged to the former leader of Group Three and he had just resigned not long ago.
“You will be the team leader of Group Three. Do you best, I have high expectations of you, Xiao Luo,” Mao Jianyi said.
What! Promoted to team leader on his first day of work?
Does this mean that it’s true, after all?
With his post as the group leader and his special working conditions, it became apparent that this had to be the person who secured the Dubai deal. With that, their perception of Xiao Luo took on a whole new meaning, and nobody was slouching around anymore, but sat attentively and looked alert.
