Chapter 18: Reversal

ews about Zhuoyuan Technology popped up on her phone. 。Because of a previous project, she set Zhuyuan Technology as a keyword, and related news would pop up automatically. 。Recently, Zhuoyuan Technolo...Shouting Lan didn't offer too much explanation, calmly replying.

"Yes, I was the final reviewer for this data, but last night when I got home, I added some more to the report. I haven't had a chance to talk to Jiajia about it this morning yet."

Saying that, she pulled out another report, this one on the market share of food artisans.

“This report is the result of my visit to supermarkets, restaurants, and small retail stores in Qining City yesterday afternoon. It covers both urban and suburban areas. The data differs somewhat from the report previously provided by Shijian Company. As a well-established brand in Qining City, Shijian once had a market share of 65% or even higher. However, in recent years, with changes in people's eating and shopping habits, this local brand no longer has any advantage. Large supermarkets and hotels have basically stopped purchasing from them. Only small supermarkets and convenience stores in the suburbs have sporadic purchases, and the actual market share is less than 10%. For the people of Qining, Shijian is more of a nostalgic feeling.”

Shu Tinglan spoke slowly and clearly, and his report was well-organized and thorough. He had visited all the necessary places and conducted a comprehensive data analysis, which he detailed in the report.

Director Xiao's brow finally relaxed a little, and then he threw the report in front of Jiagia:

"I've given you all a free day to relax, but don't think it's just for checking off landmarks. Shu Tinglan used these two days not only to gather real data on the food artisans, but also to set up the site for Zhuo Yuan Technology and successfully added Wang, the General Manager's assistant, on WeChat."

Jiajia's face was flushed red, she wanted to argue a few words, but found she couldn't say anything.

"Director Xiao continued, “The opportunities given to you are the same, but while you're out enjoying the mountains and waters, others will have already left you far behind in a day.”

Jiajia originally worked in the department. Although she was also an assistant lawyer, because she was lively, sweet-talking, and capable, she was the darling of the department. The several lawyers usually doted on her. On the other hand, Shu Tinglan rarely spoke and preferred to be alone. She had little presence in the department.

A lawyer spoke up for Jiajia:

"Since you are all from the same department and have work arrangements, why can't you discuss going together Acting independently isn't about taking credit, is it Tinglan, I tend to be direct with my words, so don't take offense. But your actions aren't appropriate; they lack teamwork."

The other lawyers also nodded slightly in agreement, feeling the same way. Director Xiao hated people who acted smart beyond their capabilities the most.

Only Zhou Ming, the lawyer, spoke up for her:

“So what you're saying is that you're lazy and then blame those who are proactive and hardworking Listen, although she hasn't been here long, think about all the messy tasks you've given her. Has she not done a good job on any of them Even though she's not involved in any projects, she helps organize and manage the progress of your projects, and she can provide any materials you need at any time.”

"The only issue with Tinglan is that she silently does a lot, but isn't good at expressing herself, which led to you all overlooking her. Today, I formally apply to Director Xiao, requesting Tinglan be assigned to my project, where I will personally mentor her."

Shu Tinglan glanced at Zhou Ming in surprise. During her six months at the law firm, Zhou Ming had indeed been very helpful to her, but she didn't want to work with him. Zhou Ming's approach to cases was wild, always going against conventional wisdom, even a bit like the underworld. It wasn't that this way was bad, it just wasn't suitable for her personality. She wanted to work with Director Xiao, who relied on professional skills to handle cases.

She was carefully choosing her words, trying to find a way to politely decline Zhou Ming's proposal, when Director Xiao suddenly spoke.

"I can't give Shutinglan to you for now. I'll take the Zhuoyuan Tech case with her."an then arranged for her mother to be discharged from the hospital and returned to their house in the suburbs. 。There's Cheng Chen in a nearby house, so we can look out for each other. 。"Don't tell Yu...
