My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife

Chapter 368 Survival of the Fittest (2/3)



"Time is tight. I require your proposals to be on Zhou Lan's desk by 5 PM today. Otherwise, you can pack your things and leave!" Yang Chen said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the group was suddenly looking at each other in disbelief.

Isn't this too severe?

If the proposal isn't done well, they could be immediately fired?

Even Wei Xueqing wouldn't do something like that.

Some people immediately felt dissatisfied.

"You've given us so much work; what are you going to do?"

Yang Chen glanced at the person calmly and said, "My job is simple, to contact Frank Gregory, and ask him to shoot a short video for me to use during the press conference, and you can also publish it online for promotion."

Upon hearing this, the group was suddenly at a loss for words, feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place.

The name Frank Gregory was as famous as thunder to them.

Now, the entire company was focused on this.

As for this person, not to mention contacting him, they hadn't even met him face to face.

Even Wei Xueqing, the president, couldn't get in touch with Frank Gregory, at most only with his assistant.

Yang Chen said he wanted a short video from Frank Gregory—if he really can get it, the effect would undoubtedly be more effective than holding a press conference or hiring internet promoters.

But the crucial point is, can he get it?

Someone raised a doubt, "You say just to get it, but can you really contact him?"

Yang Chen didn't answer. It was Wei Xueqing who spoke.

"There's no need for doubt here. The reason our company can contact Frank Gregory or even cooperate with him is because of Yang Chen. Frank Gregory is a friend of Yang Chen's and it's out of respect for Yang Chen that we're given this opportunity. Also, it's because of Yang Chen that we've gained Frank Gregory's trust and authorization. I think the older employees know that when Frank Gregory came to our company to discuss cooperation, he once laid out a very stringent requirement, which was to design a piece that would satisfy him."

Wei Xueqing surveyed the crowd, "As you all know, Frank Gregory is a genius in international design, holding sway over half of the fashion world. At almost all major fashion shows, you can see his work as the finale. How difficult is it to design a piece that pleases him? If our designers had that capability, we would have created an independent brand long ago, instead of being led by others. It was Yang Chen who brought out ten pieces that amazed Frank Gregory. The ten garments we're selling now were originally created by Yang Chen. So, do you have any doubts now?"

The group listened, looking at each other.

Since Wei Xueqing said so, it must be true.

They never expected Yang Chen to have such capabilities.

Yang Chen looked at them and couldn't help but chuckle and say, "Actually, I'm not deliberately trying to make things difficult for you. One design proposal is very simple! As long as you create it, it means you've done it. If you don't, if you don't accomplish the tasks assigned by company leadership, then why would the company keep you? Perhaps some would say, how can a proposal be so simple to create? It requires time, thought, and research. Let me tell you, in an emergency, no one waits for your research or slow crafting. When it's urgent, I need the proposal, and I need it now! You also must give it to me! Are you trying to bargain at this moment? Why don't you bargain with your opponents, ask them to wait for you to come up with an action plan before they attack?"

"Naive!" Yang Chen sneered, "If only the world were that convenient! The workplace is like a battlefield, where you train soldiers for a thousand days only to use them for that single moment. Now is the time to showcase your capabilities. Whether you stay or go, whether you rise or fall, or remain mediocre, all these are reflected at this moment. You are all from Flame Country, so you must understand the meaning of a turning point in life. Transitioning from elementary school to middle school, middle school to high school, and finally to university and choosing a career, each stage is an opportunity and also a test; now is no different. If you have the ability, then you can stand out; if not, you'll naturally be eliminated. It's survival of the fittest. The weak will be preyed upon without capability!"

"Maybe you feel all the work was dumped on you, and we haven't done a thing. Then you're sorely mistaken. When an incident happens, who reacts the fastest? After it happens, who bears the consequences? That's us!" Yang Chen sighed, "I don't want to say any more, you should understand it yourself. We'll wait for your proposals this afternoon."

The group lowered their heads, lost in thought.

They understood the reasoning behind Yang Chen's words, but they hadn't anticipated the current situation being like this.

When Yang Chen finished speaking, a flame flickered in each of their eyes.

Because Yang Chen was right, from school to finding a job, every point is a turning point. How long would you need to spend time and build seniority in a company? You would need to outlast your superior to get promoted, and that takes such a long time?

However, in such an urgent situation, if you can solve the problem and perform spectacularly, you can leave a good impression on senior leadership. Promotions and raises wouldn't be out of reach.

Suddenly, a surge of passion filled them, making them eager to fight.

"Alright!" Yang Chen waved his hand, "I've assigned the tasks, now hurry and get to work!"

They immediately gathered their things and left quickly.

They didn't want their colleagues to beat them to it, or else the opportunity would be taken by someone else.

After the group left, Wei Xueqing couldn't help but shake her head with a wry smile, "You're really good at leading a team. We initially thought we had no way to counter this time, but unexpectedly, with your allocation, everything turned into small tasks that became much easier. And these people, after getting scolded by you, not only weren't dispirited but became even more filled with fighting spirit. Truly amazing!"

Sometimes, one has to admit that leadership is a kind of talent and a kind of charm.

Yang Chen smiled slightly and said to Wei Xueqing, "Language is an art, study it well and there's great utility!"

When watching television, we can see that on ancient battlefields, a captain's few words can stir the atmosphere among soldiers, making them willing to give their all and fight the enemy.

This is also a kind of warfare technique, and moreover, a leadership art.

Ye Xin looked at Yang Chen, increasingly feeling that Yang Chen is extraordinary.

A person with such leadership skills and charisma definitely can't be a simple character.

If placed in ancient times, they'd absolutely become a great captain!

Even though times have changed now, they still wouldn't be ordinary!
