54: Chapter 54 Our Departnt Does Not Work Overti_1 54: Chapter 54 Our Departnt Does Not Work Overti_1 “I’m talking about this Thursday.
I need a finished draft, ready for the printer!”
Li Mingtong couldn’t help but remind Bai Xiaosheng.
He truly wondered if he hadn’t made himself clear, otherwise why would Bai Xiaosheng have that expression on his face.
Excited, what’s there to be excited about!
“This Thursday, a draft ready for the printer.
I understand!” Bai Xiaosheng nodded.
Arrogant, way too arrogant!
Do you really think I wouldn’t dare touch you if you don’t complete it?!
Li Mingtong mistakenly thought that Bai Xiaosheng was fearless, relying on the backing of Shang Wenshu to be so bold.
A cold laugh surfaced in his heart.
This ti, you’ve guessed wrong!
“Good, Manager Bai is truly a capable man!” Li Mingtong maintained his composure and smiled, “In a mont, I’ll have the admin issue an assignnt sheet to you all.
Of course, it’s just a formality.
You just have to sign it casually, and it’s done.”
It was anything but a formality!
The assignnt sheet was an ironclad military order!
It was a new asure recently introduced by Chen Daya.
If you don’t complete the task, you accept the penalty, and pleading makes no difference!
“Chen Daya, this trap, is now snug around Bai Xiaosheng’s neck, with so many eyes watching.
I’ll see what you do when the ti cos!” Li Mingtong sneered to himself.
Black on white, even if Shang Wenshu cos, Bai Xiaosheng won’t be able to escape!
With this thought, Li Mingtong’s mood improved considerably.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.” Bai Xiaosheng stood up to take his leave.
He felt very content inside and was even eager to get back to start working.
The managerial position, here I co!
“I won’t see you out.”
Li Mingtong and Bai Xiaosheng, each harboring their own thoughts, exchanged a contented smile.
After Bai Xiaosheng left, Li Mingtong imdiately phoned the admin departnt to issue the assignnt sheet!
It was best to seal the deal quickly to avoid any potential complications that might arise with delay!
In the marketing departnt.
Wang, Song, and Yezi were all anxiously waiting, analyzing all the possibilities.
The project gossip had spread everywhere, with various rumors about how Bai Xiaosheng got rid of Wu Qiuyan—none knowing if they were true or false.
Beyond shock, Wang and the others were filled with concern.
First, there was a clash of interests, and now personal grievances were involved.
How could things possibly end well!
It wasn’t just about Bai Xiaosheng; the marketing departnt could also be implicated.
Wang and the others weren’t concerned about implications per se; they were mainly worried about Bai Xiaosheng.
They had all beco sincere friends after a few gatherings, and their affection for one another grew stronger every day—they truly saw each other as friends!
Just as they were anxious like ants on a hot pan, Bai Xiaosheng returned.
A smile was on his face, and there was even a hint of excitent.
Wang, Song, and Yezi were sowhat relieved.
It seed that Bai Xiaosheng hadn’t faced any particular difficulties.
Maybe Li Mingtong wanted to avoid disputes at this ti, or perhaps he didn’t want to fall out too badly with Chen Daya and the others.
In any case, as long as there was no trouble, it was good!
“Brother Bai, what did you talk about in Mr.
Li’s office?” Yezi asked bluntly, unable to contain her curiosity.
“He gave us so tasks.” Bai Xiaosheng smiled nonchalantly, “The admin departnt will send over the assignnt sheet in a little while.”
On the way back, Bai Xiaosheng had almost planned out how to tackle the work.
Li Mingtong had assigned work and issued an assignnt sheet?
Wang and the others tensed up.
However, seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s expression, they relaxed again.
Even with the assignnt sheet, it couldn’t be that difficult a task.
“If you ask , we should take the initiative instead of being passive.
Strike first!” Yezi suddenly said.
“What do you an by ‘taking the initiative’?” Song adjusted his glasses, asking curiously.
“It ans working overti,” Wang said, catching on to Yezi’s idea.
“Exactly!” Yezi clapped her hands proudly, “Take the initiative to work overti.”
So, taking the initiative was working overti, huh?
Song thought about it and agreed.
The marketing departnt had had a lot of free ti lately, causing complaints from other departnts.
Volunteering for overti can be a good gesture!
As several people were talking, the door to the promotion departnt was knocked on.
Then, the junior receptionist walked in, holding two task sheets in her hands.
“Manager Bai, please sign these,” the receptionist handed the task sheets to Bai Xiaosheng, waiting, as she needed to take one back for filing.
Bai Xiaosheng took them, glanced at them, and swiftly signed his na.
The receptionist looked at Bai Xiaosheng with admiration in her eyes.
After retrieving the task sheet, she looked at Wang and the others, with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
“You guys need to take care of yourselves these next few days, don’t work yourselves sick,” the receptionist said with sincere advice before she left.
Take care of yourselves, don’t work yourselves sick?
Wang, Song, and the others exchanged baffled glances, not understanding what she ant.
Yezi walked over and picked up the copy of the task sheet left on Bai Xiaosheng’s desk.
“Ah, it’s for compiling books, and there’s folding to be done,” Yezi read, “Next Thursday?
Hm, the timing is pretty tight.”
Wang and Song nodded slightly, less than two weeks seed reasonable.
“It’s not next week, it’s this week,” Bai Xiaosheng reminded them.
“This Thursday?!”
The three of them were stunned.
Yezi’s eyes widened as she scrutinized the task sheet closely.
“It really is this Thursday!” she exclaid.
Ignoring the folding.
A book to compile in three or four days?
“Just to get a rough draft would take five days!” Wang said in disbelief.
“It’s not a rough draft, it’s the final product, ready for the printers,” Bai Xiaosheng reminded again.
Final product, ready for the printers?
Wang and the others looked bewildered, still watching the calm and composed Bai Xiaosheng.
This was the…
assignnt given to them by Li Mingtong!
This was like putting a noose around their necks, a death sentence!
“Bai, you agreed to this?” Wang asked incredulously, feeling his question was redundant after asking.
The task sheet was already signed!
Wang took the task sheet and instantly noticed the details of the rewards and punishnts.
The reward was huge, but the punishnt was even greater!
This was an unequal contract!
How could Bai Xiaosheng, a man of his cleverness, agree to this?
“Did he threaten you with our whole departnt!” Song blurted out, his speculation resonating strongly with Wang and Yezi.
Bai Xiaosheng’s character was inflexible; if it were just himself, Li Mingtong wouldn’t have been able to threaten him!
Unless, Bai Xiaosheng compromised because of them!
Wang and the others unanimously ca to this conclusion.
“Don’t overthink it, I took the assignnt, and I’m confident about completing it.
In the unlikely event that I don’t, I have plenty of money to cover the fines, no need for you guys to chip in,” Bai Xiaosheng said.
He was aiming for extra credit but would never let his people suffer a loss!
That was Bai Xiaosheng’s principle.
With that said, Wang and the others were even more convinced of their guess.
“No way!
I’m going to speak to Mr.
Chen, why should Li Mingtong push people around like this!” Yezi said, filled with righteous indignation.
“The task sheet’s already signed, it’s no use!” Song reminded.
“Let’s do overti!” Wang said through gritted teeth, and upon hearing Wang, Song and Yezi, with serious expressions, nodded in agreent.
At this point, they could only give their all!
“Overti?” Bai Xiaosheng looked at the three of them and laughed.
“You guys did remind , I, as the manager, shouldn’t start my role too quietly, I need to set so rules.
The first rule is—”
“From today on, our departnt will not do any overti!”
