Sister Niu asked us to stay here and not to break in, so we just stayed here!"

"That's right." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, knowing that he might have blamed them wrongly.

There is a high probability that I didn't explain it clearly, Sister Niu didn't arrange it, and then this group of people were just stupid, and that's what happened in the end.

Therefore, I don’t blame these people for taking advantage of the situation, but I blame myself as the leader for not assigning correct tasks to them.

But Cao Zhiqiang didn't know what they could do for a while.

After thinking about it, Cao Zhiqiang said directly: "You can wait here, you can play cards, drink tea and read newspapers, but don't smoke.

If you really want to smoke, go out and smoke, don’t smoke in the office, you hear me?”

"Yes, yes!" The sturdy man in the lead nodded quickly, and the others also nodded.

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "Okay, you guys go ahead. I'll go up and have a meeting with someone. After that, I'll also arrange your formal work, so you don't have to waste time here every day."

After saying that, Cao Zhiqiang left the office with a group of people nodding and bowing.

As soon as Cao Zhiqiang left, a group of people breathed a sigh of relief.

Then a thin man said to the stout man in the lead: "Boss, I was scared to death just now. I thought Team Leader Cao was going to blame us and drive us away."

"What do you call a team leader?" The stout man glared, "This is a publishing house, and I want to call him the general manager. I don't think the general manager likes to be called the general manager, but doesn't he like to be called the team leader?"

"Yes, yes." A young man wearing a hat next to him smiled and nodded, "The general manager sounds very impressive, much better than the team leader."

"Stop talking." The sturdy man in the lead sighed, "Everyone put away their cigarette butts and open the windows to get some air. This general manager doesn't like the smell of cigarettes, so hurry up!"

Then everyone started to clean up in a hurry.

And just when the security guards started to clean up the duty room, Cao Zhiqiang had already gone upstairs to his editorial office.

The editorial department is currently the largest office of Hongguang Publishing House. Basically, most of the employees usually work here.

To the east of the editorial department is the president's office, and to the west of the editorial department is the general manager's office.

Because the current model is that the general manager's family dominates, people in the editorial department generally call the general manager's office the West Wing and the president's office the East Wing in private.

Obviously, this is influenced by some spy movies.

All I can say is that as long as there are people and there are hierarchies, then office culture is something that no one can learn without a teacher, and it is impossible to guard against it.

After Cao Zhiqiang entered the editorial office, he found that there were quite a few people here, and they all gathered together to chat, but there was no smoking.

It's not that no one here smokes, but Cao Zhiqiang has stipulated from the beginning that smoking is not allowed in the office and must be smoked outside.

These people strictly abide by this rule, including President Zhou.

Even though Zhou Huai'en is the president, if he wants to smoke, he has to smoke in the corridor and cannot smoke in his office.

Euphemistically called this, it’s called taking care of lesbians and preventing second-hand smoke. In fact, everyone knows that it’s because Cao Zhiqiang himself doesn’t like it.

"Hey, everyone is here." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"General Manager!" Yu Deli was the first to come over and say hello, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you have something to do at home today and won't be back?"

Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "I've finished taking care of my family affairs, so I'll come back to see you and discuss some things with everyone."

Well, now due to the popularity of "Jianghu Xing" and the establishment of the sales department, there is no need to let people like Yu Deli who are not proficient in sales go to Xinhua Bookstore for promotions.

Because the current problem is not a problem of promotion at all, but a problem of insufficient production capacity and supply exceeding demand.

Therefore, in order to avoid causing trouble, Cao Zhiqiang withdrew people like Yu Deli.

But when this group of people came back, they found that they had nothing to do for a while, so they had nothing to do but chat.

In the final analysis, this is still a problem for Cao Zhiqiang, the person at the helm.

One thing to say, Cao Zhiqiang does have a lot of ideas, strong cheats, and very good courage and decisiveness.

But when it comes to leading a team as a leader, Cao Zhiqiang is indeed not qualified, at least not yet.

Cao Zhiqiang didn't think this was a thing before.

After all, the publishing house has only been established for a short time and has very few manpower, so it can carry out so-called "flat management".

As the publishing house slowly grows and its manpower increases, it will naturally change gradually.

But now it seems that with the sales of the product "Jianghu Xing", the attention of superior leaders, and the rapid increase in the number of people under his command, the development speed of the publishing house has exceeded everyone's imagination.

Now, the publishing house is not growing slowly at all, but it has suddenly become fat like a balloon.

At this moment, Cao Zhiqiang was a little overwhelmed.

You know, Cao Zhiqiang now has to record novels, manage the company, do sales, take care of housework, prepare for the next singing and recording, and even has a hotel that is about to open waiting for him.

It can be said that Cao Zhiqiang's current stall is too big, and he needs to invest a lot of energy in any one project, let alone all projects together.

Human energy is limited, and you cannot want both and want more.

You must learn to concentrate on the main things and separate out the secondary things.

Wanting everything, grabbing everything, and ultimately doing nothing well.

In short, it’s time to make changes!

If we don’t take advantage of the fact that the problem is not big now and quickly change the organizational structure from top to bottom, carry out more detailed decentralization, and strictly implement the reform of the modern management system with clear responsibilities and powers, the problem will be big in the future!

Apart from anything else, at least in terms of the organizational structure of the publishing house, it can no longer carry out the extensive "flat management" of the past.

To sum it up in one sentence.
