Chapter 1494: Xue Yishan, Manager of Marketing and Sales
The introduction meeting of the board of directors officially ended at 11:30 PM. Wen Xinya finally became a director of the Wen Corporation. She could now directly intervene in the operation and management of the Wen Corporation and even partic.i.p.ate in major decisions during shareholders’ meetings.
After the briefing, Wen Xinya was accompanied by several directors as they went to inspect the company, along with Grandpa and Wen Haowen.
Old Mr. Wen used his actions to show how much he valued his granddaughter. On the first day his granddaughter joined the board of directors, he established a position for his granddaughter within the Wen Corporation.
All the employees of the Wen Corporation were smart. They naturally scrambled to show Old Mr. Wen good results and att.i.tudes.
At this time, Secretary Cao took a group of people into the sales department.
“Chairman, directors, welcome to the Marketing and Sales Department for inspection. The minister has a meeting with a client and is not in the company. Therefore, I came here especially to receive you.”
They were received by a manager of the marketing and sales department, named Xue Yishan, who had worked in the marketing and sales department of the Wen Corporation for fifteen years. He was the oldest person in the marketing and sales department and his position was quite high too. Therefore, it was only appropriate that he came since the minister was not around.
Secretary Cao introduced Wen Xinya as a director to Xue Yishan. “This is Miss Wen, the newest director of the company. Today Miss Wen will be inspecting the company, as she wants to understand the company’s operation and management system.”
Another purpose of the visit was also to introduce the whole company to Wen Xinya and her newest appointment as a director.
Xue Yishan quickly greeted Wen Xinya. “h.e.l.lo, Director Wen!”
Wen Xinya politely shook hands with Xue Yishan. “Thank you, manager. Sorry for troubling you.”
After a brief introduction, Xue Yishan did not beat around the bush and brought Wen Xinya, the chairman and the rest of the group to visit the marketing and sales department while explaining the basic situation of the marketing and sales department to Wen Xinya.
Xue Yishan’s satisfactory performance attracted Wen Xinya’s attention. She nodded secretly. He was a hard worker.
Xue Yishan explained the related issues of the department to Miss Wen and then casually said, “The current statistics of the marketing and sales department showed that Miss Wen’s designs are the most popular, especially the Winter collection jewelry series that has become available some days ago.”
As one of the core departments of the Wen Corporation, the marketing and sales department had always been the apple of the eyes of the senior managers. As long as this department was under their control, it would not only be a huge benefit to them but also raise their status and power in the Wen Corporation. Even Wen Haowen was after the marketing and sales department.
Therefore, the Marketing and Sales Department had always been the most complicated department within the Wen Corporation. Factional chaos, the formation of private groups, and conflict of interests caused it to constantly be in a mess.
Xue Yishan was 36 years old. He entered the company 15 years ago. He had also served as the manager of the marketing and sales department for 6 years. He had shown his excellent ability and was one of the top sales managers in the marketing and sales department. Unfortunately, he was unlucky. He accidentally offended Wen Haowen, was undermined by several directors and became a manager with zero presence in the marketing and sales department.
“I remember that the Winter collection jewelry series has just been released into the market for less than a month. How is the market sales and feedback for it?” Wen Xinya’s eyes flickered slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. This Xue Yishan was a very interesting person, maybe she should pay more attention to him.
As the jewelry designer of the Winter collection series, Wen Xinya cared about the sales and feedback of her designs.
“Missy has always been very concerned about the situation after the jewelry designs for the Winter collection series was launched.” Secretary Cao was definitely on Wen Xinya’s side to help her at any time. Amongst the two of them, one took it for granted and one contributed to the situation, causing everyone’s attention to switch to Wen Xinya’s designs for the Winter collection series after they were listed onto the market, including the sales and feedback for them.
Old Mr. Wen looked at Xue Yishan gently.
The people who were with Xinya to inspect the company were the backbone of the Wen Corporation. These people all had extraordinary positions in the Wen Corporation. Even he must be polite. They were cooperating with Xinya to inspect the company together to give face to him. If he took the opportunity to establish a sense of belonging and friendliness in front of these people, Xinya’s position in the Wen Corporation would greatly improve.
However, these people were usually on their high horses. Even though Xinya was a brilliant person, in the eyes of these people, that was taken for granted. To establish a sense of belonging and friendliness with them was not easy.
Xue Yishan intended to help promote Xinya and actively mentioned the topic. Since the contents of the conversation were closely related to the interests and benefits of the Wen Corporation, these people would definitely pay attention to it. The protagonist of the conversation was Xinya, which would also improve their impressions of her.
Xue Yishan’s eyes flashed. His own capabilities were already good and he had a powerful a.s.sistant. “After the Winter series went onto the market, the sales performance was remarkable. There was a 5% increase from the previous Autumn series jewelry. The jewelry sales of the Wen Corporation accounted for 55% of the total market sales for jewelry. The total jewelry market sales also increased by 15% compared to previously. The current sales are still growing. I expect it to hit new heights before Chinese New Year.”
Because of Wen Haowen’s support, the marketing department was the most dominant in the Wen Corporation. From the ministers to the directors, none of them saw any value in Wen Xinya. Because of that, Xue Yishan was appointed by the minister to come and receive the directors and the “arrogant and proud” scrawny girl.
However, Xue Yishan did not think so. He felt that this was an opportunity given to him by G.o.d.
A chance to approach the Wen Family’s future heir.
Xue Yishan’s words attracted the attention of the backbones who visited the company together with Wen Xinya. One of the directors said on the spot, “This is really good news. We should be happy about.”
Xue Yishan’s words were very concise and powerful, expressing one message. The Winter jewelry series designed by Miss Wen had surpa.s.sed the previous Autumn series in less than one month after being released and created great benefits for the Wen Corporation. The Wen Corporation had reached a new high in the domestic jewelry market.
Such success was enough to attract anyone’s attention.
Xue Yishan, as the manager of the sales department, talked about this in front of everyone. This made the news more shocking than simple cold reports and data. Everyone could not help but rea.s.sess Wen Xinya, the future heir of the Wen family, and now also the newest director of the Wen Corporation, in their eyes.
