In the meeting room of the sales department.
All the employees with positions above the supervisor were quietly sitting in the office.
They looked at the two new leaders.
One was Gianna and another one was Gemma.
Originally, they were informed that only Gemma was coming to work and the new director was not
important.
Only now did they know that a big shot had come.
Furthermore, they heard that there was a big joke just now while welcoming the new director. Everyone
was respectful to Gemma but Gianna was directly ignored. The scene was extraordinarily awkward.
Not only the employees were embarrassed but even Gemma was also caught with an egg on her face.
Thinking about that scene, they all felt it was very deadly.
“Hello everyone, I’m Gianna Morris, the new director of the sales department. It’s my first day at work
today. The reason why I called a meeting with you all suddenly is mainly to get to know you all so that
we can cooperate better in the future,” Gemma said in a tone that was neither too humble nor too
arrogant. She looked very matured and reliable.
At this moment, all people could not help but look at Gianna.
Once one spoke, people would generally have a first impression of the person.
In all people’s opinions, Gianna who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth was supposed to be
arrogant, bossy and would not have many capabilities and the reason she came here was just to
experience life and play casually just like Helen who previously came. In fact, Helen did not have any
ability and sometimes even held the sales department back. People in the group knew that it was not
easy to be the director of the sales department, which was probably why the former director
immediately left when Gianna came to be in this position.
But at this moment, Gianna’s attitude towards others and her humbleness when talking to people
inexplicably left a good impression on everyone.
Welcome applause rang out in the scene.
Gianna thanked them politely and continued saying, “To be frank, I’m the daughter of Alexander,
chairman of the Morris Group. I’m 22 years old and this is my first time coming to a workplace so I’m
not familiar with how things work in the workplace. So, if I have the wrong judgment in the professional
field, I hope you guys can raise objections. I hereby assure everyone that I won’t have anything
personal against anyone here, I’ll just focus on the issue, not the person.”
All people still looked at Gianna like that. They did not expect that a fledgling young woman would
actually portray an aura that would let people uncontrollably be influenced and affected.
This aura directly caused all the people there who were older and more experienced than her to have a
sense of oppression.
However, this sense of oppression did not make others feel that she was using her identity to put them
in an inferior position, but rather make them feel that she was just having a serious attitude towards the
work.
“I won’t waste time in the meeting room to get to know you guys. I’ll be familiar with you guys one by
one during the work in the future. Without further ado, I’ll now make a simple work arrangement,”
Gianna said straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
According to the situation in the past, a new inaugural meeting would at least have greetings for at
least half an hour, not to mention there would be self-introduction one by one so this entire process
would normally take at least half a day.
In the workplace, except for the leaders, nobody wanted to delay the work time for a meeting as they
would have to delay their off-work time to make up for the work they owed.
“Firstly, all the supervisors here now create a WeChat workgroup so that arrangements related to work
can be better done in the future. I hereby emphasize that things that aren’t related to work aren’t
allowed to send there and everyone must reduce the use of emoticons. Secondly, I need a list of
important work handled by every person now and I need to understand the main work of the sales
department now. Hand to me the summary about the progress of these works as well as the main
people who are in charge of them before the end of the day. Thirdly, I need resumes of all the
employees in the sales department so that I can know everyone better.” After saying that, she paused
for a moment and said bluntly, “This task will be handled by Gemma.”
Gemma was stunned.
She did not expect that Gianna would suddenly mention her.
Gianna explained, “Like me, you’re new to the company too so you also need to get familiar with all the
employees.”
“Yes.” Gemma agreed with some reluctance.
This kind of work obviously should be done by the secretary.
However, Gianna handed this task to her like that, which was totally not being kind to her although the
reason she used was very good.
“Give it to me before the end of the day,” Gianna added.
“Alright.”
“That’s all, you guys may leave now.” Gianna got up.
The moment she got up, everyone was surprised.
This meeting was less than ten minutes.
And it really just ended like that?!
The efficiency was really amazing.
In Gianna’s office.
The office was still being cleaned. The cleaning lady who was cleaning Gianna’s office was extremely
embarrassed.
She looked at Gianna and stammered, not able to come out with a proper word.
Gianna did not give her an out. She turned around and walked away directly.
She felt that there was a need for her to report to her father on her first day at work.
Gianna’s sudden absence made the others even more confused.
Gemma was also baffled at this moment when she saw Gemma’s actions.
She gritted her teeth and returned to her office.
The office was indeed meticulously decorated. If Gianna had not appeared, she certainly would have
been satisfied at this moment. Because of Gianna, she felt it was a humiliation to stay in this office. She
held back the displeasure in her mind, took a deep breath and called her father.
After the call got through, Gemma’s tone instantly changed. She daintily called out, “Dad.”
“It’s your first day at work today, are you used to it?” Abbott obviously treated Gemma very well and his
tone also sounded very doting.
Abbott liked Gemma very much and now, as Helen had done those things that brought shame to him,
once there was a contrast, Abbott naturally treated Gemma even better.
“I’m fine. I just didn’t expect that…Gianna comes to work as well.” Gemma was with a surprised tone.
“What?!” Abbott’s tone obviously changed.
He had specifically instructed the human resources department yesterday that his daughter was
coming to work and asked her to inform the sales department to welcome her well. But, he did not
expect that Gianna also came.
“She prevailed over me instantly after coming,” Gemma began to choke as she said, “With her identity
as the daughter of the chairman, she directly disgraced me in front of everyone. When people treated
me warmly and enthusiastically, she showed an unhappy face. She also asked me to do a secretary’s
job during the meeting just now.”
“Who is she to treat you like this!” Abbott was livid.
“She is the director of the sales department but I’m only the marketing office manager. She is my boss
now,” Gemma said with the grievance, “I don’t think there is anything with Gianna being my boss as
she is elder. I just feel unfair for my elder sister, I heard that when she previously went to work as a
marketing office manager, Uncle Alexander didn’t quite agree with it, saying that it was not suitable for
her to be in such a high position just after entering the company and he worried that it might be a
subject of ridicule. He even acted as if our family owed him a lot. But now, unexpectedly, Uncle
Alexander directly lets his daughter become the director. In the entire Country B, I think nobody has
ever become a director when he or she is 22-year-old and she is even a female director.”
Gemma’s words obviously made Abbott who had been jealous of Alexander completely unable to
accept it!
