Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Chapter 1142 No Regrets (2)

"Okay, let's all sit down and talk. Well...please go out and close the door."

Mr. Ma said with a smile, then turned to look at Assistant Li who was standing next to him with a silly smile on his face. He thought to himself that Mr. Liu's assistant didn't seem to be very discerning. Why don't you go out and wait.

 Assistant Li realized what he was doing, and quickly put away his smile and said, "Okay, Mr. Ma, I'll be out right now."

 After finishing speaking, he exited the office and closed the door from the outside. Only Mr. Ma, Mr. Liu and Han Xiaodan were left in the room.

 Mr. Ma sat opposite Han Xiaodan, while Mr. Liu kept company next to him.

From the positions where the three of them are sitting, it can be seen that Mr. Ma wants to talk to Han Xiaodan today and has little to do with Mr. Liu.

This is very puzzling. Han Xiaodan is just an ordinary employee who has just graduated. Whether she is a regular employee or promoted, it is the big boss of the head office's turn to come and interview her in person!

 So Mr. Liu, who was sitting next to him, was also muttering in his mind, what is the background of this girl named Han Xiaodan!

  Why has no one told me before that there is such a "big Buddha" hidden in the company? Fortunately, I have not done anything extraordinary, otherwise it would be troublesome...

Mr. Ma looked at Han Xiaodan and asked with a smile: "You are considered a veteran employee in the company. It's just that you were still studying and could not work full-time, so there has been no way for you to take on a more important position. I feel aggrieved."

Han Xiaodan shook his head with a smile and said tactfully: "I am very happy to have the opportunity to work in the company. How can I be wronged? I am a computer major. I learn and practice at the same time. This is also a good exercise for me. Opportunities. To be honest, I learned more in the company than I learned in school.”

Also, the Pengcheng University she studied at was not a particularly good school, and its teaching resources were relatively weak. To be honest, what she could learn was very limited.

 But at Facebook, technical elites from across the country and even the world are gathered here!

The technical experts that Han Xiaodan came into contact with here are definitely better than the teachers in her school, and they encountered very practical problems at work, so she was able to learn more.

 She was not being deliberately modest when she said this.

When Mr. Ma heard what she said, the smile on his face became even brighter. He nodded with satisfaction and did not go around in circles anymore. Instead, he simply asked: "As far as I know, you have graduated with a master's degree and should be able to work full-time now. Right? How about it, do you want to stay at Facebook?"

Han Xiaodan nodded and responded without hesitation: "Of course, I have been working at Facebook for several years, and I get along well with my colleagues. I like the company environment very much, so I hope to stay here."

 The atmosphere in Internet companies, especially leading companies like Penguin and Facebook, is of course very good, because the companies are rich!

Therefore, the company's environment is quite high-end, with top-notch office buildings, the best office equipment, and even the office chairs that ordinary employees sit on are purchased from the world's top office furniture brands. The retail price of a chair is high. Thousands!

And the usual snacks, drinks, afternoon tea, fruits, etc. are all provided free of charge. The employee canteen is also subsidized. Taxi fares can be reimbursed when you work overtime at night, overtime pay is doubled, etc...

Of course, the remuneration package is also the highest in the industry, and the company will allocate original shares before going public.

As far as Han Xiaodan knows, although the housing prices in Pengcheng have risen rapidly in recent years, employees in the company who have stayed for more than three years have basically bought a house. Obviously, based on their salary levels, the housing prices in Pengcheng are very high. Not too expensive.

 In an ordinary small private company, you wouldn’t even think about these things!

 At this time, Mr. Liu next to him also interjected.

He could see it. Although he didn't know what the background of this girl was, it was obviously not simple. The purpose of Mr. Ma's coming here today was to keep this girl at work, and she showed such a good attitude. This is not like the style of a group boss.

"Han... your performance in the company has always been very good. If Mr. Ma hadn't come over today, I would have talked to Han. I wanted to put some extra burden on you and do some more important work!"

 In fact, he didn’t know Han Xiaodan well, but that didn’t prevent him from showing kindness at this time…

Han Xiaodan smiled and didn't say anything. After all, he had been in the workplace for so many years. He just listened to what these leaders said and couldn't take them seriously.

But what Mr. Ma said next scared her...

Mr. Ma said: "Well, I agree with Mr. Liu very much. Based on Mr. Han's level, the current position is obviously overqualified. In addition, you are also a veteran of Facebook, so the board of directors decided to appoint Mr. Han as the Facebook CEO. Shu China’s Vice President of Operations, reporting directly to Mr. Liu!”

 This appointment not only frightened Han Xiaodan, but also Mr. Liu.

Originally, he thought that even if Mr. Ma was "highly optimistic" about Han Xiaodan, he would directly promote her to the position of department director or manager. Could it be possible that he would also promote her to the position of director?

 That seems a bit outrageous!

  After all, this is Facebook China, one of the giants in the Internet industry!

 Anyone who can hold the position of director here is a well-known figure in the industry!

No matter how good Han Xiaodan is, at most he will end up as a department manager. At worst, he will be trained for a few years and then promoted slowly.

He never expected that Mr. Ma would turn out to be the Vice President of Operations!

 Strictly speaking, this is basically the second-in-command of the entire company...

 But the question is, does Han Xiaodan really have that much "power"?

It seems that I still "underestimated" this girl and underestimated her...

 …

After Han Xiaodan came to his senses, he said hesitantly: "Mr. Ma... I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this position."

  She is still very self-aware. Although she is a little confident in her abilities, Han Xiaodan is not arrogant enough to think that she has the ability to control a company as large as Facebook China!

That is the Vice President of Operations, who is responsible for the development of the entire company!

Perhaps Ma always took advantage of the fact that he was introduced by Wang Ye and wanted to do well to Wang Ye, so he let himself hold such a high position, but he had to know what was good and what was bad.

In case you messed up, when you see Brother Wang Ye again in the future, how can he talk to him ...

 So Han Xiaodan wanted to refuse this position!

Mr. Liu on one side opened his mouth slightly and his eyes straightened. He did not expect Mr. Ma to appoint Han Xiaodan as the vice president of operations!

 From intern directly to the vice president of the company, how many levels have been passed in between...

˜Formal employees, team leaders, department heads, department managers, business department directors, and then the vice president!

This is because the business of Facebook China is currently relatively single and the organizational structure is relatively flat, so there are not too many business units. When more businesses are involved in the future, it may be divided into business groups, branches, etc. Woolen cloth!

 He ​​subconsciously wanted to object, because after all, he is also the president of Facebook and is responsible for the development of the company. Even the group boss cannot directly promote a "new person" to the position of vice president without stepping over him.

But when the words came to his lips, Mr. Liu still swallowed them, because he remembered that what Mr. Ma just said had made it clear that this matter was a "board decision"!

 I heard it clearly, it was the board of directors who made the decision, not Mr. Ma himself.

What does this mean? It means that this matter has been decided. Even if you object, it will have no effect.

Even if he and Han Xiaodan have to choose one of them, then there is a high probability that they will do it alone...

 He is a smart man, very confident in the development of Facebook, and very satisfied with his salary and benefits. Of course, I will not fall out with the head office just because of the appointment of a vice president.

 Besides, didn’t Mr. Ma also say that after Han Xiaodan became the vice president of operations, he also had to report to himself.

They are all old people in the workplace. Mr. Liu understands that Mr. Ma means that he wants to take care of Han Xiaodan more and help her "cover" anything she needs!

In this case, Mr. Liu is not too worried. Anyway, at most Han Xiaodan can't help him much, but he can't do anything bad either.

Perhaps the board of directors appointed Han Xiaodan as the vice president at the critical moment when Facebook was about to go public, in order to allocate more original shares to her before the listing? !

Looking at it this way, Han Xiaodan’s background may be bigger than he thought...

 …

After figuring out the joints, Mr. Liu quickly changed his mentality. He smiled and persuaded:

“Han, I also think you are very suitable for the position of Vice President of Operations. Mr. Ma has already said it. You are the oldest employee at Facebook, and you are better than me in this regard, haha...

In addition, over the past few years, your work performance has been obvious to all. No matter what position you are in, you have done your best and exceeded your expectations without any complaints!

 Furthermore, all your colleagues think highly of you and think you are a very good employee.

Furthermore, Facebook’s business is a new business on the Internet, and it requires younger and more spiritual operating ideas, so your age has become an advantage.

 You are a young person, so you understand the thoughts of young people on the Internet better than old men like us.

 So, I raise my hands to support the board of directors’ decision! "

Well, when he said this, Han Xiaodan was too embarrassed to refuse. The two bosses persuaded him so sincerely. If he tried to shirk it again, wouldn't it seem a bit "ignorant"?

So she could only nod and agree, and became the vice president of sales of Facebook China...

 After this personnel appointment was announced, it naturally caused quite a stir within the company.

Behind the scenes, many employees are talking about the origin of this "Vice President Han" who suddenly appeared!

 Hum actually jumped directly from being an intern to the position of Vice President of Operations.

 In fact, even Mr. Liu was also very curious about this question. After talking to Han Xiaodan that day, when Han Xiaodan went out, he had already asked Mr. Ma this question in person.

 The answer Mr. Ma gave him was a bit vague. He just said that this girl was actually the agent of a certain major shareholder, and that he was just training her as an intern.

Even this position of vice president of operations is not the “end” for Han Xiaodan. In a few years, she will join the board of directors!

Mr. Liu suddenly realized that he was the major shareholder, so that’s no wonder...

 …

One day at the end of August, Han Xiaodan received a notice asking her to lead a team to Moscow to exchange operational experience with the headquarters.

Of course, although it is said to be the headquarters, Facebook Russia actually has no direct jurisdiction over Facebook China, and even only holds a small part of the shares.

So Han Xiaodan came to Moscow with several colleagues from the operations department.

She still has a good impression of this city. After all, when her mother took her to travel here during the summer after she graduated from high school, Han Xiaodan won a million-dollar grand prize!

 It seems that from that day on, my destiny began to change.

 In the past, Han Xiaodan did not think that he was a lucky person. He had never picked up money on the road since he was a child. How lucky is this...

 But since winning the jackpot, a series of good luck has happened to her.

I met Wang Ye and was introduced to work at Penguin. After that, Facebook China was preparing to be established. I was transferred here and worked there for several years.

  Don’t think she is just an intern at Facebook, the company’s treatment for her is not low.

Han Xiaodan is also the only one among the students of his generation who did not need to ask his family for money throughout the entire university period and lived comfortably just relying on his own salary.

Not to mention that on the second day after graduation, he was appointed as the vice president of operations of the company, which made him soar to the sky!

 This vice president of operations is not only a change in position, but also a more direct change in salary.

When he was an intern, Han Xiaodan’s salary increased from the initial 5,000 yuan to 12,000 yuan before graduating from graduate school, which was not low.

 However, after becoming the vice president of operations, her salary directly became an annual salary of 3 million, which does not include the year-end bonus and equity incentives...

It can be said that she is far beyond her peers now!

As a result, no boys dared to chase her. Even Assistant Li, who used to be somewhat interested in her, now avoids her when he sees her, either out of shame or knowing Han Xiaodan’s background...

 …

After arriving in Moscow, Facebook Russia warmly entertained Han Xiaodan and his party. After normal work exchanges, a dinner was originally arranged.

But the embassy suddenly contacted Han Xiaodan, saying that they had something urgent to discuss with her, and sent a car to pick her up.

Han Xiaodan was confused, wondering what the embassy suddenly wanted to do with him.

However, she still said hello to her colleagues in the company and Facebook Russia, and got in the car to go to the embassy.

Han Xiaodan never expected who she would see next.
