After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156 A Strike Back

"Ah-choo!" Hannah rubbed her nose.

She was in Jimmy's car to work.

Rose had just called her and reminded her of a meeting with the sales department supervisor and above.

Not only would she not be much helpful to Oscar if she stayed at home, but she might be teased by him. She had better go to the company. Besides, Theodore was here to help. Hannah analyzed the situation.

With him here, Oscar would not be lonely.

What mattered now was that there was a lot of work to do.

Yesterday, she went to the Light Building. She thought she needed to handle this project as quick as she could, for her time was limited.

Less than six months were left for her to prove herself.

...

They arrived at the Cooper building.

Hannah went into her office.

Rose followed and said, "The meeting's already started, we're waiting for you."

"How late am I?" Hannah asked.

"Five minutes."

She grabbed her laptop and hurried up to walk to the conference room.

"How long do these meetings usually last?" She asked Rose.

"Conservatively, two hours."

That was to say, she would spend the whole morning on this.

"What is the topic of the meeting?"

"It's about the reports on the marketing of key projects in the sales department during this period."

"Report one by one?"

"Yes, each supervisor would talk about their projects."

"How often do we have this kind of meeting?"

"Generally once a week."

She had reached the door of the conference room, and she turned to Rose, "You don't have to come in. There will be a special meeting for the Light Building project at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. I will send you the outline later. You need to organize it and we will finalize the plan at the meeting."

"Yes."

Hannah opened the door and walked in.

The meeting was going on at the moment.

She came to her position as quietly as she could.

A director of the sales department was reporting on the project to his superior--Roger Cooper, who sat in the middle and listened as the directors, one by one, reported to him on the marketing work in the sales department.

Roger seemed delighted to have their respect and loyalty.

After settling herself in the seat, Hannah started to do her work on her laptop.

With sullenness and contempt, Roger was glaring at her.

Somehow, he saw a sense of disdain for him on her face.

Then he asked in public, "Hannah, where were we?"

Hannah was his superior, yet she was criticized by him in the face of subordinates, which she usually wouldn't let happen.

Apparently, Roger never thought to save face for her.

Hannah didn't care at all. She just naturally looked up when hearing her name.

She was in the middle of writing the outline of another meeting in the afternoon for Rose. She had no time to spare because she needed to reserve time for Rose to organize things according to what she wrote. Besides, Hannah had known the main content of this meeting from Rose. And for her, she had the confidence to handle the meeting while doing her work at the same time. So, she did not listen to what they were talking about.

"Well? You don't know?" Roger sneered.

Hannah knew he was trying to embarrass her.

She didn't want to argue with him at this moment. Nor did she want to waste her time on this conference.

"Not to mention being late for the meeting, you are so disrespectful to the discipline of the meeting. As the chief inspector of the sales department, don't you think you disgraced the whole department?" Roger became even more ruthless.

"Mr Cooper, I know all about the progress of our sales projects, so I don't need to spend time in a meeting to find out again. It's a waste of time. And I have important things to do right now, so forgive me for not knowing what you are talking about."

"What? It's a waste of time?"

"Yes." Hannah nodded.

She didn't care about his feelings.

"Hannah, you're getting too big for your boots!"

"Don't get me wrong though. It's nothing personal. I just think it's a waste of human resources to have each of your executives spend two hours briefing you on the progress of the project they're working on. A notification should be enough. And the daily indicators of marketing projects are classified and presented to the leader group of the company. For those that cannot be seen and need to be monitored, there will be two notifications of process in a week." She said easily, "If you take some time to read them, you'll find out all about what's going on in the sales department. It doesn't make sense to have such a time-consuming and laborious meeting every week."

"Hannah!" Roger was completely irritated.

As a senior president of Cooper Group, he couldn't believe she embarrassed him in front of all these people.

"Don't try to throw weight around since you are the daughter of the chairman!" Roger snapped, "You think I have nothing to do apart from asking about sales projects? I am helping you monitor the market indicators. But I didn't know that you are so ungrateful!"

"You should monitor the indicators that are relatively weak in the market. There is no need to monitor the good ones. I really don't think you are doing a good job."

"Hannah!"

"The Marketing Department has twelve projects, four of which don't perform well at present." Hannah said calmly, "I suggest you focus on these four projects. Those who are not responsible for them don't need to attend this meeting, which can save much of their time."

Roger could find no word to refute.

Hannah did not reserve anything for averting his complete humiliation, for she could not put up with being belittled anymore.

She had the right to do anything she was capable of, such as fighting for reducing unnecessary work for her staff.

Then she continued, "We've sorted out the problems of those projects, but yet we haven't found a better solution. Since you are so concerned about the progress of our sales department, we might as well ask you to give us some constructive suggestions. "

"Mann," Hannah called the name of the manager of Sales Group A.

"Yes, president."

"Report on your project, the huge loss of the Light Building. We need suggestions."

"Yes." Mann got up quickly and walked towards the rostrum.

And the supervisor, who was reporting at the moment, stepped down.

Everyone looking, Hannah took over the charge in an instant.
