“Hehe,” seeing everyone nod, Hao Yunyang lightly chuckled and continued: “But there’s one point I need to clarify with most people here. Jiuxiao is a vertically managed organization where regional directors oversee provincial-level directors and below, and provincial-level directors oversee city-level directors and below. So, those directly responsible to me are the directors of each region.”
After pausing for a moment, Hao Yunyang slowly revealed the true intent of his words: “Today, the reason I invited you to the headquarters is to understand the process. I hope you can use this as a reference for handling various events. After this banquet, deputy regional directors and regional directors can visit headquarters at any time. Provincial-level and deputy provincial-level directors who want to come to headquarters or contact me directly need to follow a procedure. I believe you all understand this now?”
Everyone nodded in unison. Although Hao Yunyang’s tone and demeanor seemed casual, this did not mean these people dared to respond carelessly. They could only listen carefully, remember carefully, and answer carefully.
“City-level liaison personnel and below,” Hao Yunyang reiterated, “are not permitted to contact headquarters or appear at headquarters without written approval from deputy provincial-level directors and above! This is the rule. Have you all remembered?”
The last words were spoken with raised volume, and with the surround sound system, it vibrated everyone’s eardrums slightly. Immediately following was an even louder and unified response: “Remembered!”
Hao Yunyang paused for a moment and then said: “One more thing: for companies that have been invested in, the 18th to 22nd floors of headquarters are specifically for handling company matters. If a company needs resources, technology, information, and so on, they can contact directly without going through organizational procedures. Understood?”
“Understood!” The previous worries of the attendees dissipated, and they responded in unison.
“Very good.”
Hao Yunyang smiled and nodded, casually raising his hand: “Let’s start the meal.”
He then turned to Wan Hongyuan and nodded, saying: “Call in the servers and take good care of them with good wine and food.”
Except for the few rules Hao Yunyang had reiterated, which made everyone slightly nervous, the rest of the banquet was quite harmonious. It continued noisily until after three in the afternoon before everyone dispersed.
