MY Masochistic CEO-Chapter 66 New opportunity

"Thank you, Tatiana!"

"So, do you have any other questions?"

Realizing she was basically dismissing me, I quickly said my goodbyes and took my leave.

As I exited the office, the heavy weight in my heart finally lifted, and the issue of the commission was ultimately sorted out.

Unconsciously, I found myself standing at Tatiana’s office door.

I hesitated, unsure whether to enter.

Jessica and Linda were untrustworthy. If George hadn’t been reliable, I would have been in trouble during yesterday’s morning meeting.

Tatiana, the mistress, was a tough cookie to handle.

But, by a stroke of luck, I had acquired some incriminating information about her, giving me the upper hand. After considering it, I knocked on Tatiana’s office door.

"Come in."

I pushed the door and stepped inside. Compared to Linda, Tatiana dressed more youthfully, especially with her captivating eyes.

"Tatiana!" I greeted quickly.

"Did you just visit Linda’s office?" she asked.

"Yes. After all, Linda is the head of the marketing department," I said with a smile.

"Why didn’t you come to me for justice in this matter? Have you forgotten what I said before?" Tatiana said.

She was quite something, asking in a probing manner that didn’t provoke anger but rather made one feel inadequate.

With a somber expression, I replied, "Tatiana, the situation was extremely urgent, and I didn’t consider it immediately."

"It seems like my influence as a VP doesn’t hold much weight in your eyes."

"Not at all. It’s just that having you handle such a minor issue feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."

"You certainly know how to sweet talk."

Tatiana finally said, "Take a seat."

"Thank you, Tatiana."

"I thought you wouldn’t come."

"How could I not!"

I quickly said, "I always heed my superiors."

Tatiana said, "Really? That’s good."

She added, "I’m planning to establish a new department and urgently need assistance. Would you be interested?"

"What department?"

"The business development department."

"What?"

"Isn’t that just the marketing department?"

I was taken aback. Was she really about to target the marketing department? Managing the project department wasn’t enough. Now she wanted to encroach on Linda’s territory as well.

If I really went over, Linda might tear me apart.

Damn, I knew no good would come of this. In the end, they just wanted to use me as a pawn.

This time, I won’t be fooled again.

"Tatiana, I’m actually doing quite well in the marketing department right now, so I don’t have any..."

"Before you rush to refuse, hear me out," Tatiana said, "I know you’re puzzled, thinking that the business development department is just the marketing department under a different name. You’re not entirely wrong in your assumption. But let me clarify. My department handles more than just projects. We’re not just serving Sevan. Our services extend nationwide. With sufficient resources, we can establish our own trading platform. Simultaneously, we will provide consulting services to these corporate groups and facilitate the transfer of senior talent."

I realized that this department was not just about decentralization. It was also designed to further increase the company’s profit points.

For instance, bulk trading platforms, corporate consulting, and talent transport were all services typically provided by headhunting firms.

But it had to be said, she had great ambition and a far-reaching vision.

Once she succeeded, the existence of the marketing department would become awkward, and Linda’s power would be significantly diminished.

Furthermore, it would strike at the core of her power.

In fact, the project department was essentially reliant on the marketing department. Without the marketing department generating projects, how could they make money?

No wonder Tatiana was resorting to such drastic measures.

"Moreover, the bonuses will increase, significantly surpassing what the marketing department currently offers," Tatiana added.

This approach was even more ruthless.

"For instance, in the new department, if Paul had held a deal worth several hundred thousand dollars, his commission would have received twenty thousand. However, with my plan, he could have earned twenty-five thousand or even up to thirty thousand. He would have given me the deal."

Anyone would do the same. The pursuit of profit was natural. The marketing department’s performance would definitely decline, while the new department’s performance would inevitably soar.

But I thought Linda would not let her succeed so easily. The power struggles at the top level were not something I could engage in right now.

I knew that despite my achievements, meddling in the company’s upper management affairs would only lead to my downfall.

"Tatiana, isn’t it a bit premature to discuss these things now?"

I neither agreed nor refused.

Tatiana smiled. "Indeed, we are still in the preparation stage. It may take one to two months, and we may face many setbacks."

She added, "However, once the new department is established, I hope talented guys like you will join us."

I was intrigued. If Tatiana could really overcome all obstacles and establish the new department, why not join?

Under Jessica’s leadership, it was hard to stand out.

"Alright, Tatiana, since you insist, I will definitely join. I’m willing to be a foot soldier."

I said half-probing and half-joking.

"A foot soldier? No, no, William, you are too modest. If you join, I will make you a director!"

"What?"

"Make me a director?"

I admitted I was tempted.

"Tatiana, you must be joking. How could I possibly be a director?"

"No, I’m serious. I have high hopes for you."

Tatiana said, "I brought up Marquesa Vines company to you a few days ago, and you handled it swiftly. That’s your strength. Those who excel naturally ascend to director positions. Don’t hesitate. If you join, the director’s role is yours, either as the head or the deputy."

"Of course, this is all hypothetical for now. If you really aim to move up in the next one or two, ensure your exceptional performance. When the time comes,

I’ll push for your promotion, and no one will stand in your way."
