Meeting 0060 (2)
"Don't you want to explain anything?" Zhu Fengshan narrowed his eyes at Lin Qiang, "In that case... considering the adverse impact of this incident on the branch... the branch has decided..."
"Just a moment." Lin Qiang took a deep breath, placed his hands on the table and finally stood up. He gazed at Zhu Fengshan and said calmly, "Since Director Zhu wants me to explain myself, I'll humbly comply."
"How dare you quibble!" Hao Wei slapped the table again, "Attitude! Watch your attitude! This is not the time for quibbling, it's time to hang your head and admit your mistake, Lin Qiang!!"
"Sorry, I don't think I've done anything wrong!" Lin Qiang pointed at Hao Wei, "I'm talking to Zhu Fengshan, shut up!!"
"Me... you!!" Hao Wei was tongue-tied and wide-eyed.
At a branch director's meeting, he was pointed at by a subordinate to shut up! Regardless of the outcome, this is already a shameful thing.
"Lin Qiang, don't!"
"What are you talking about?!" Lin Qiang interrupted Hao Wei's words, sternly rebuking him. "Director Zhou is waiting for my explanation, and since you don't plan to explain, have no ability to explain, what's the point of wasting your breath here? Shut up! Just listen to me!"
Hao Wei's face twitched and he didn't know how to respond.
"Alright." Feng Shan's face sank, and he waved his arm: "Since you don't think you've done anything wrong, then please explain."
Lin Qiang turned around and nodded at Zheng Shuai, then said: "I'll use data to explain. May I borrow the secretary's computer for a moment? Everyone can see the data clearly on the projector."
The female secretary had no choice but to get up and let Zheng Shuai sit in her own seat.
Zheng Shuai opened a PPT document, which listed the investment situation of each client "grabbed" by Lin Qiang in bar charts and tables.
"Considering the client's privacy, this document is anonymous. If you need to investigate further, I will privately disclose the client's real name." Lin Qiang took out a laser pointer that he had prepared earlier and guided everyone to scan the data, "This is the financial situation of our client Qiu at our bank. Previously, his assets were in the West Road branch, with 200,000 yuan in wealth management products and 1,082 yuan in deposits."
"Through my marketing efforts, I successfully converted 80 million out of 108.2 million into wealth management products for our bank."
"Everyone knows that with the same funds in our bank, compared to fixed deposits, wealth management brings much greater benefits to our bank. To put it bluntly, this benefit is at least 5 times or more."
"In other words, although I brought in 80 million deposits from other business halls, I turned these 80 million deposits into profits equivalent to at least 400 million."
"With such a simple algorithm, anyone can do it. Through this process, I created a profit of over 32 million deposits for my bank!"
Lin Qiang scanned the venue: "All my performance this month was created under this condition. Overall, I brought a net profit of over 100 million yuan to our bank, which is more than the interest on deposits. The bank puts benefits first, I don't understand where I went wrong."
Lin Qiang turned to Zhu Fengshan and smiled: "Please instruct me."
Sigh...
Whispers echoed in the conference room again.
This is sophistry, and it's also a sound argument. From a strange angle, but it says something that can't be questioned as fact.
Everyone is amazed at the huge performance brought by Lin Qiang, and even more so at his audacity, or rather "self-deception". Such a straightforward questioning and provocative branch manager.
Has he gone mad?
Isn't it good to admit one's mistake sincerely?
Some people who understood the inside story couldn't help but laugh secretly, and it must be that there were other banks willing to accept Lin Qiang, so he would not care about interpersonal skills, directly confronting and offending the bank manager, presumably to vent his anger before leaving.
Facing such sophistry, Zhu Fengshan's face was also overcast and unbearable.
"This is robbery!" Zhu Fengshan said angrily, his voice trembling. "Other business halls have also been trying to turn those deposits into financial management, it's just that the timing hasn't come yet, you're robbing..."
"Robbery?!?" Lin Qiang interrupted Zhu Fengshan's strong argument, slapping his arms on the table and speaking bluntly. "Those are all time deposits that have been idle for over a year. The fact is that the salespeople at those branches can no longer turn those deposits into financial products. At this point, my taking action doesn't pose any problem. Taking a step back, my branch has always been suppressed by the Western District Branch. I heard that at previous meetings, Director Zhu had asked everyone to do whatever it takes to achieve performance and catch up with the Western District Branch. My behavior can be seen as responding to the director's call, right?"
"...... Lin Qiang, what really puts me in a difficult position is the leadership of the branch!" Zhu Fengshan pointed to the ceiling and said, "This kind of thing has already made the branch feel......"
Lin Qiang quickly bowed and said: "May I ask which leader it is? I will apologize in person in the future!"
"...... is ......"
Feng Shan bore the strange gazes of everyone, and finally just swung his arm: "I've already apologized for my mistake, you... should pay attention to this matter in the future, don't give me any more trouble."
"Yes." Lin Qiang slightly bowed and sat back in his seat.
The venue fell silent for over ten seconds, with no one daring to breathe heavily.
Everyone is thinking, has Lin Qiang gone crazy? How dare he speak like this? He must be ready to jump into the Yellow River.
Lin Qiang himself sat comfortably in his seat, releasing a long-suppressed anger. As a leader, he should have encouraged and reused employees with strong performance capabilities, which was also the case for Lin Qiang's previous three years of experience. However, since coming to this branch, he has been suppressed everywhere, and it is clear that the other party is intentionally targeting him.
Don't pursue a defeated enemy, after being transferred to this branch, not only was I not commended for my strong business abilities, but instead, they kicked me while I'm down and suppressed me. Now, I have no reason to humble myself here at all.
Lin Qiang firmly believes in this point - either assist you or step on you.
Half a minute later, Zhu Fengshan finally suppressed his emotions and avoided losing his composure.
"This matter, let's put it aside for now." Zhu Fengshan's momentum suddenly increased again, "Lin Qiang, there is one thing that is nailed to the board. Half a month ago, you vowed to create a sales performance of 100 million yuan for Longyuan Business Hall, don't you forget?"
Lin Qiang nodded: "How could I forget."
"Haha." Fengshan smiled and said, "You threatened me in person back then. If you really make it to 100 million, and there's a vacant director position, you'll have to fill that position immediately, right?"
"Yes, I said it."
"What a pity... " Feng Shan shook his head, "You didn't reach 100 million and there's no vacancy for the director position."
He said, his tone suddenly turning harsh: "Lin Qiang, one hundred million is not the key point, isn't your ambition to take the top spot?! You took advantage of Director Hao's absence to incite subordinates and collude with the branch to oppose us, destroying internal unity and relying on this to forcibly take the top spot. This kind of destructive and discordant behavior, our branch absolutely cannot tolerate!"
"Yes, I overdid it this time." Lin Qiang said sincerely, "My subordinates were affected by my emotions, and this is my fault."
"Hmm, you've finally admitted it." Zhu Fengshan said with a hearty laugh, "Since your attitude is good this time, considering your performance, the branch has decided to give you another chance and transfer you to..."
"Just a minute." Lin Qiang said quietly, "I admit that I overdid it this time, but as for the other crimes Zou Xing mentioned, I completely disagree!"
Sigh...
The conference room fell into panic and astonishment once again.
The fact is right in front of him, and yet he still acts like this. Is he going to start biting madly now?
"Lin Qiang, that's enough! Stop humiliating yourself!" Hao Wei turned around and scolded.
"Hao Wei, that's enough! Stop embarrassing yourself!" Lin Qiang slammed his hand on the table and retorted, "Is this the attitude a leader should have towards a subordinate who brings in 40 million yuan in sales every month?!"
In an instant, the originally elegant and refined meeting venue turned into a scene of unrestrained verbal abuse, with both sides extremely agitated, even Zhu Fengshan was unable to intervene.
"Don't be too outrageous!!" Hao Wei couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and scolded wildly, "What's wrong with 40 million?! Who knows what kind of despicable means you used?! On the contrary, you've become arrogant just because you have a little achievement, not putting leaders in your eyes, and even facing Zhuo Xing, you don't know how to be humble! Lin Qiang, you're simply a cancer to our team! You've ruined our entire sales team! Don't you know what's wrong?!"
"Has the team fallen apart? Me? In these days when I acted as deputy director, deposits and sales performance have risen sharply, the team has never been more united, even the branch's surprise night inspections couldn't disrupt us, and the audit department specifically praised our business hall in their report. Our sub-branch, Hao Wei, you tell me, how did the team fall apart?!!"
"Hao Wei choked back for a few seconds before shouting loudly, "Attitude! The entire business hall's attitude has become as terrible as yours, disregarding seniority and respect, not even having the professional ethics of a bank employee!!"
"Wow! Professional ethics, it's surprising to hear this from you!!" Lin Qiang stared at Hao Wei, scanning the crowd in the meeting room. "Hao Wei, do you dare? Dare to tell everyone where you were for those 13 days? Dare to tell everyone where you were when the audit team was inspecting? Dare to tell everyone why you were absent for those 13 days??!"
Hao Wei fell into an extremely long silence, his entire face had turned red, and his glasses frame was trembling constantly.
Lin Qiang stared at Hao Wei, grinning: "Hao Wei, leave a way out for yourself. I've been helping you cover this up all along. My attitude is already extremely, extremely, extremely kind!"
The conference room fell silent for the third time. Some directors who were clear about some inside information knew that Hao Wei was indeed unable to answer this question.
Hao Wei himself was also aware that Lin Qiang had in his possession photos of him and Zeng Bai Chuan's health check-up, and if he wanted to, he could expose them on the spot. If that happened, Hao Wei would probably be in big trouble from now on...
Wow!!
Zhū Fēngshān slapped the table fiercely and shouted: "Everyone sit down!"
The two men stopped abusing each other and sat back down separately.
"Lin Qiang, regardless of other things, your attitude is indeed problematic." Zhu Fengshan said calmly, "Bank employees, at the very least, should be respectful."
