Chapter 1091 Proposal
Huo Dawei looked cheerful on the surface, but Song Yangming could hear the depression and loss in him.
Yes, a man who is about to turn 30 years old has been working in the society for so many years after graduation. He has worked hard in the workplace, but has achieved nothing so far. It might be the same if it were me.
In fact, Huo Dawei's professional ability is very good. Song Yangming knew his ability when they were colleagues. Huo Dawei's work in the previous consulting company was extremely outstanding. It's a pity that he is a straightforward person. In addition, he only has a junior college degree, which does not have any advantage over undergraduates in terms of academic qualifications. He is not good at flattering, so he is still a team leader after working in the company for several years.
This may be the reason why he left the consulting company, but he didn't expect that the next few jobs were not as good as the consulting company. In the past few years, he has been going around in circles and changed several jobs, but he has never made much progress. This time he thought he would have a chance when he returned to Pengcheng, but he didn't expect that reality would give him another blow.
"Old Huo, gold will always shine. Maybe your chance has not come yet."
"Yes, yes! I love hearing that. Come, let's have another drink!" Huo Dawei smiled and filled his glass, then clinked glasses with Song Yangming.
After finishing his drink, Huo Dawei sighed, "People often say that a man should be able to stand on his own feet at the age of thirty. I will be thirty next year, but I still haven't stood on my own feet. Maybe I am just unlucky, but... let's wait and see. Maybe it is just like you said, and the opportunity has not come yet."
"By the way, Old Huo, my company is in need of recruiting people. Why don't you come to our company? How about we continue to be colleagues?" Song Yangming looked at Huo Dawei's lonely look and felt a slight movement in his heart, so he made a suggestion.
This is not because he felt sorry for Huo Dawei. The reason why Song Yangming invited him was that he suddenly thought of Huo Dawei's expertise and ability. Although he did not have a high degree, he was very capable and knew everything about him. In addition, Huo Dawei's previous work experience in a consulting company and the scope of work he had done over the years, if he could be recruited, it would be a good supplement to the personnel composition of the new department.
He took what Zhang Hao and Song Yangming said today to heart. In fact, Song Yangming had considered this before, but not as thoroughly as Zhang Hao said. Zhang Hao woke up Song Yangming. In order to completely control Si Te and Nandu, and even Shenghua in the future, Song Yangming must have an entry point, and this entry point is already in front of him, which is the combination of traditional business and the Internet.
In addition, Song Yangming has been thinking about how to build his own team and form his own team. In the two months at Si Te, Song Yangming has done a lot and learned a lot, but the composition of the team, including the team, has never been satisfactory.
It's not that there are no people. In fact , there are many talented people inside Si Te, and Song Yangming is not only the assistant to the general manager, but also the prince of Si Te. There are many people who want to get close to Song Yangming, flatter Song Yangming and follow him, but Song Yangming does not want to use many of these people. Apart from ability, the main problem is trust.
Most of the people he could trust were subordinates of his fathers and elders, and Song Yangming was still considering the others. In addition, the incident with Zhu Weizhou happened before, so Song Yangming was particularly careful in selecting people for this reason. Just like this time when Sun Yaoliang asked Song Yangming to form a team and prepare to set up a new department, Song Yangming carefully selected a few people, but these people were basically just under investigation.
Huo Dawei was different. Huo Dawei was not from Si Te. He was a former colleague of Song Yangming. And until now, Huo Dawei did not know Song Yangming's true identity. Their relationship was not mixed with any interests. In addition, Song Yangming knew Huo Dawei well, so he immediately thought of recruiting Huo Dawei. If Huo Dawei could join his team, he would definitely be his assistant with his ability.
"Your company? By the way, I don't know which company you are in now. Why did you go to Jinling?" Huo Dawei had a good alcohol tolerance, but after drinking a few glasses in a row, his face began to turn slightly red. He asked Song Yangming with a smile.
"Sir, have you heard of it?" Song Yangming replied.
"Si Te? Could it be this Si Te?" Huo Dawei was stunned, stretched out his hand and pretended to drink a drink and asked back.
Seeing Song Yangming nodding with a smile, Huo Dawei slapped his thigh and said, "Good boy, you are really good. You actually went to work at Si Te? Jinling? Yes, I remember that Si Te's headquarters is in Jinling? You work at the headquarters? Look at me, I almost forgot that you accompanied your leader on a business trip today. What's the matter? You should be doing well in Si Te? Become an official?"
"I guess so. I work as an assistant to the leader, a small cadre."
"Not bad, not bad!" Huo Dawei was really happy for Song Yangming, patting him on the shoulder and saying, "Ster is quite famous. You have a bright future if you can enter the headquarters and be an assistant to the leader! You can do it, you have an advantage with a high degree. I am not like a college student. There are so many people like me out there. I have no advantage at all."
"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you say. It's mainly about opportunity. By the way, our company is about to set up a new department and is planning to recruit people in the near future. I will be transferred to this department when the time comes. If you are not satisfied with your current company, why not come to our company? Then we can continue to be colleagues like before."
Huo Dawei was immediately tempted. On the one hand, Si Te was a large company with a great reputation in the industry. On the other hand, Song Yangming was in Si Te, and the two had always had a good relationship. If he could go to Si Te and have Song Yangming's care, things would go much more smoothly there.
But after thinking about it, Huo Dawei shook his head and said, "Forget it..."
"Forget it? Why?"
"Mr. Song, I appreciate your kindness. Sit is indeed a good company, but why would I go there? You know my situation. I am good at market analysis and data forecasting, and I deal more with IT. Sit is engaged in traditional fast-moving consumer goods. Although there are also related market and data work, these are usually handled by the marketing department or sales department. In addition, for such a large company, it is impossible for a newcomer to be responsible for the operation of these tasks. Usually, there is a team of its own, or it is handled by a third-party company like the consulting company we worked for before."
"Besides, how will you calculate your salary when you go to Si Te? You and I are friends, brothers. I won't be happy if the salary is too low. After all, I am unfamiliar with Jinling. After I go to Jinling, I have to make sure I can rent a house, travel, and live there, right? But if the salary is too high, it will be difficult for you. You are just a small leader with limited power. If you lose points in front of the leaders above you, won't it affect your future?"
"Old Song, I appreciate your kindness, but after careful consideration, it is really inappropriate, so let's forget about it..."
Song Yangming was slightly touched. Huo Dawei's words showed that he regarded him as a true friend. If not for him, he would not consider the issue from his perspective.
Huo Dawei's answer made Song Yangming more determined to recruit him. Song Yangming immediately told Huo Dawei that this newly established department happened to be related to the Internet, and that this department was independent and had great authority. Huo Dawei was capable enough and the work he did would be relevant in the future.
In addition, Huo Dawei does not need to worry about the salary. Although Sit cannot offer the high salary in the Internet industry, it ranks among the best in traditional industries, especially in the fast-moving consumer goods industry. Sit's salary and benefits have always been relatively high in the industry, and the benefits are also good, which will definitely not let Huo Dawei suffer.
More importantly, Sit has its own dormitories and cafeterias. If Huo Dawei goes to Sit, he can apply for a dormitory, which saves the cost of renting a house. As for eating in the cafeteria, the company also subsidizes it. The food is very good and cheap, which is also an advantage in these aspects.
After listening to Song Yangming's explanation, Huo Dawei's heart was indeed moved, and he believed that Song Yangming would not deceive him in this regard.
"Old Song, if I want to go, can you really recommend it?" Huo Dawei asked hesitantly.
Song Yangming looked at his expression, and thinking about the results of the interview he mentioned earlier, he understood his concerns a little bit, and immediately nodded with a smile: "Don't worry about this, it will definitely not be like your interview in Pengcheng this time. We are old colleagues and old friends, how can I lie to you about this? In addition, I will tell you a secret. The recruitment leader of this department has given me the responsibility, so I have a certain right to recommend. As long as I don't object, there will be no problem with the leader . Are you relieved about this?"
Touching his chin, Huo Dawei thought about it and was a little tempted, but he still agreed immediately, after all, his current job was still there. Besides, the city where he lives and works now is a little far from Jinling. If he goes to Sit, he will have to start over in a new place, which is a challenge for Huo Dawei who is nearly 30 years old.
After a while, Huo Dawei told Song Yangming that he would think about this matter carefully and hoped that Song Yangming would give him some time.
Song Yangming readily agreed, but he also reminded Huo Dawei that the establishment of this department had already begun and he didn't have much time left. If Huo Dawei was willing to come, he had to do it as soon as possible. He couldn't wait for Huo Dawei too long.
"How much time can you give me at most?" asked Huo Dawei.
"About half a month, right? I'll stay in Pengcheng for two more days, and then I'll accompany my boss to Hangzhou. I'm not sure how long I'll stay there, but I estimate it'll be about three to five days. After I finish these, I'll return to Jinling, and then the establishment will begin. The company won't give me too much time, so half a month is the longest."
"That's no problem! You wait for my news." Huo Dawei nodded in response, then raised his glass to Song Yangming and said, "Old Song, I'll toast you again. Thank you for thinking of me. If I really go to Si Te, we will be colleagues again in the future. Come on! Cheers!"
"cheers!"
The two clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
They put down the wine cups and burst into laughter at the same time, then continued to eat and talked about other past events. They forgot the time while talking, until they finished all the wine and then drank half a box of beer. Then they said goodbye with reluctance.
