Chapter 261 Editor-in-Chief Tang Argues with Reason
Qiao Luo wasn't actually angry with Editor-in-Chief Tang; in fact, she felt that Editor-in-Chief Tang had indirectly helped her this time.
After all, if it weren't for Editor-in-Chief Tang's gullibility, Lin Mei wouldn't have let her guard down, which gave her the space to launch her counterattack.
So she said to Editor-in-Chief Tang, “Editor-in-Chief Tang, you don’t need to blame yourself. For me, success or failure is important, but the most valuable experience is how I react in a crisis. You could say that you provided the soil for my victory.”
Hearing her say that, Editor-in-Chief Tang felt ashamed.
She is not a boss who refuses to admit her mistakes; in fact, she is quite magnanimous in some matters.
However, through this incident, she saw Lin Mei's true colors even more clearly.
After all, we all work for the same magazine, and no matter how much competition we engage in, it shouldn't harm the magazine's interests.
Lin Mei, however, never considered the magazine's interests and selfishly focused only on her own success or failure.
Such a selfish person will not go far in the workplace.
Editor-in-Chief Tang believes that the future of the magazine lies in employees like Qiao Luo who prioritize the magazine's interests.
With that in mind, Editor-in-Chief Tang immediately made a decision.
This time, she was determined to promote Qiao Luo no matter what.
So, at the routine high-level meeting that morning, Editor-in-Chief Tang made this application.
"I believe that all the bosses have witnessed Qiao Luo's performance during this period. I think such a talent must be given important responsibilities and cannot be ignored any longer. Otherwise, it will be a great loss to our magazine."
As soon as Editor-in-Chief Tang finished speaking, Lin Mei chimed in, "Editor-in-Chief Tang is exaggerating a bit. To say that Qiao Luo has shown any outstanding performance recently, I haven't seen it. She just has some basic skills. After all, she's a veteran in the media industry, so she has the ability to handle things. Otherwise, why would our magazine hire her?"
After Lin Mei finished speaking, General Manager Hu added, "I think Lin Mei is right. No matter what, our magazine is a leader in the industry, and the employees we recruit must be capable. We can't treat her differently just because she handled a few emergencies, or think she's some kind of amazing talent. Otherwise, our magazine would just become a place where people do nothing."
President Hu and Lin Mei were working together to prevent Qiao Luo from getting promoted.
Everyone present knows this perfectly well.
Especially Editor-in-Chief Tang, after several malicious attacks on Qiao Luo, finally understood.
They wouldn't allow Qiao Luo to be promoted.
But for her, this is not allowed to happen.
After all, she was the real person in charge of the magazine, and she was the one who would take responsibility for anything that happened.
These high-ranking officials, on the other hand, only know how to engage in open and covert struggles behind the scenes, disregarding the survival of the magazine for their own interests.
They wouldn't care at all whether she had capable subordinates.
So she argued with the senior executives, "Gentlemen, I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart, and there's no bias in my words. I hope you can consider the future of our magazine. After all, society is developing, and magazines are also changing. We can't stick to the old ways forever; we need to bring in some young, fresh blood, especially in management. We need flexible, adaptable, and pragmatic talents who can change the world. I think Qiao Luo is such a talent, and I hope you can seriously consider it."
Mr. Zhang agreed with Editor-in-Chief Tang's statement, but he also knew that he needed to win over another senior executive, Mr. Yang.
As long as President Yang can align himself with him, then their high-level meetings will see a three-on-two situation.
This is also the key to whether Qiao Luo can get promoted.
So instead of rushing to express his opinion, he asked Mr. Yang, "Mr. Yang, what do you think?"
That Mr. Yang is the most tactful person; it's safe to say he wouldn't express his opinion before the results are in.
Sure enough, he replied, "I don't have any special ideas. As long as it's good for our magazine, I have no objection."
That's utter nonsense.
After all, everyone says they are doing it for the good of the magazine, but is that really the case?
Mr. Zhang frowned, then looked at the group of people.
"How about this, the same as before, following the old rules, everyone raise your hands in agreement."
No one objected to President Zhang's suggestion.
Lin Mei, in particular, had long seen through that this so-called high-level meeting was nothing more than an internal power struggle between President Zhang and President Hu.
As for that General Manager Yang, he was just a fence-sitter. As for her and Editor-in-Chief Tang, they each had their own interests, so naturally they were evenly matched.
So she was the first to raise her hand and say, "I object."
Lin Mei's statement did not surprise anyone, after all, she had always been on the opposing side.
Where is General Manager Hu?
"Mr. Zhang turned his head and asked."
President Hu's decision was naturally without any suspense, following Lin Mei's vote.
"Like Lin Mei, I hold an opposing view."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Editor-in-Chief Tang.
Editor-in-Chief Tang's attitude was naturally clear.
"I agree."
