Meng Cheng's exhibition was almost ready. When Jian Shi'an heard the news in a few days, he said that he was already planning the furniture layout, and the publicity was hot, so he just waited for the furniture to be displayed.

Because Jian Shi'an had visited the venue before, it was indeed big enough, and the rent was indeed cheap, so he didn't even blink when he signed the marketing department's budget form after he came back.

As for the next budget review and execution, Jian Shi'an handed it over to the financial manager, and asked him to find someone to follow Meng Cheng and his department to the scene to check.

In the next few days, Jian Shi'an was very busy, and Meng Cheng was not free for the exhibition, so although the two were on the first floor, they never met each other.

Several times when Jian Shi'an personally went to the tea room to pour coffee and passed the marketing department, he didn't see Meng Cheng's figure, presumably he was not in the company.

Seeing that it was only five days before the opening of the exhibition, Jian Shian thought that Meng Cheng should have arranged everything, but the financial manager brought him unexpected news.

Jian Shi'an looked at the financial manager, a little surprised: "You said the exhibition was cancelled?"

The financial manager didn't know why Jian Shi'an suddenly changed his face, but he still nodded:

"Yes, I heard that there was a problem with the venue, so it was temporarily canceled."

The pen in Jian Shi'an's hand twirled a few times between his fingers, and then the end of the cap of the pen tapped lightly on the desk, making a slightly dull sound.

The pen in his hand unconsciously tapped on the table, Jian Shi'an frowned: "Why?"

"I don't know." The financial manager shook his head, paused for two seconds, and then said, "It seems to be some kind of surprise inspection, and the firefighting failed."

Jian Shi'an: "The firefighting is not cleared? Has the furniture in the marketing department been arranged?"

The financial manager was dazed and embarrassed: "Director, I really don't know about this."

Then the financial manager handed over a piece of paper to Jian Shi'an: "Director Meng and his department just brought it over. They said it was liquidated damages paid by the venue. Please report to our department first."

Jian Shi'an glanced at the numbers on the paper, but didn't answer, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from the financial manager, so he let him go down:

"Go down and get busy."

After the financial manager went out, Jian Shi'an stared down at the documents on the table and walked away for a while, and finally took a sip of the lemon flower tea that Qu Qi made for him, shook his head and continued to read the documents.

…………

In the meeting room of the marketing department, Meng Cheng looked at the three managers sitting below, and his tone was surprisingly calm:

"Tell me, what's going on?"

The marketing manager glanced at the PR manager, and the latter winked at him, which meant—you said.

In the end, the marketing manager cursed in his heart, mustered up the courage to look at Meng Cheng, and said:

"We also received the news half an hour ago, saying that the fire brigade made a surprise inspection and found that the firefighting at the site was not enough, so we had to suspend business for rectification."

Meng Cheng raised his eyebrows: "How about the firefighting?"

The marketing manager nodded: "Because it is on the negative floor, there are often crowded exhibitions, there are not enough safety exits, and the fire protection facilities are not regularly inspected and maintained, plus..."

Speaking of the latter, the voice of the marketing manager is getting weaker and weaker, and he lacks confidence, thinking what is going on.

Everyone in their department could tell that Director Meng attached great importance to this exhibition. Not long ago, he went to see the exhibition in person, and the whole department had been preparing for so long, but finally there was a problem with the venue.

Meng Cheng: "Add what? Speak louder, didn't you have enough for lunch?"

Meng Cheng's expression was calm and his tone was normal, but the marketing manager's shoulders still trembled.

Closing his eyes, the marketing manager was heartbroken, and raised his voice slightly: "Plus the ceiling wires are wandering around, and there are many spotlights, so the safety is not enough."

The marketing manager felt that he was doomed. After two days of searching, he finally found such a venue with problems everywhere, which caused huge losses for the company this time.

Although the Expo Center paid a lot of breach of contract fees if the exhibition failed, they invested a lot of time, energy and even money in this exhibition.

Most importantly, the exhibition cannot be held now...

Meng Cheng looked at the marketing manager: "Didn't you notice these problems when you went to see the venue?"

The marketing manager was very guilty and said: "When I went to see the venue with the staff there, it happened that there was an animation exhibition there. There were a lot of people and it was chaotic, so I didn't take a closer look, and..."

Meng Cheng: "Besides, you see that other people's homes are holding activities, so there must be nothing wrong, so don't worry about it?"

The marketing manager turned pale, but finally lowered his head and answered bravely, "Yes."

Meng Cheng stared at him for a few seconds, and finally looked at the PR manager and marketing manager who had been silent all this time:

"What do you think?"

There was a problem with the venue, and the follow-up such as liquidated damages was the responsibility of the public relations manager. After hearing Meng Cheng's words, he thought for a while and said:

"The attitude of the other party is wrong."

A trace of impatience flashed in Meng Cheng's eyes, he patted the table lightly, and his eyes swept over the three of them:

"Go on, what do you say, are you all toothpaste? Let me ask you a question and you answer it."

The PR manager's heart skipped a beat following Meng Cheng's slap on the table, and then he quickly said:

"It took less than half an hour for the other party to notify us that there was a problem with the venue and we had to rush over there. However, when we arrived, the other party had already prepared liquidated damages and a contract and was waiting for us in the office."

"From the beginning to the end, we didn't see half of the firefighters, and they didn't look distressed because they were found to be unable to operate."

"They also paid such a large sum of liquidated damages, but they didn't keep it. They asked us to postpone the exhibition for a few days and so on. They gave the money very readily, as if they had prepared it long ago. .”

"The most important thing is that there are so many floors in the Expo Center, and everything else is fine, but it's strange that we have to rent the first floor and fail."

Meng Cheng: "You mean they did it on purpose?"

The PR manager didn't confirm it right away, but only said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Meng Cheng put his left hand on the conference table, tapped the table lightly with flexed fingers rhythmically, and asked, "Did you go to the lower floor to see it when you went there just now?"

The public relations manager nodded: "I went to see it. The scene is very messy. There are wires everywhere, and some wires are not fixed and hanging down from the ceiling. It does look dangerous, but I don't see any problems with the fire protection facilities. No congestion or anything."

But those wires alone are dangerous enough.

Speaking of the PR manager, he also glanced at the marketing manager, which means - why did you find such a bad place?

After listening to the marketing manager, he interjected:

"Their place has been built for so many years, and they have successfully held so many events and exhibitions. Not to mention their construction and opening, the relevant departments must have inspected it. As long as there is no congestion and the exit is closed, there is no problem. There shouldn’t be a shortage of safe exits.”

Seeing this, the marketing manager quickly echoed: "That's right, if it doesn't pass the customs, it must have been closed for rectification, and when I went to see it, the manga exhibition was held well, and no wires fell from it."

The three managers started to analyze each sentence in this way, and the final result of the discussion was:

The venue is not a problem at all or not that big of a problem. The Expo Center is intentional.

As for why the other party did such a thankless thing, causing hatred and losing money, they did not discuss the reason.

Meng Cheng listened to their discussion for a while, and finally looked at the PR manager: "Are there any photos of the scene?"

The PR manager nodded quickly, then took out his mobile phone, called up the photo album and handed it to Meng Cheng, saying:

"I took a few photos just in case when I went."

Meng Cheng took it, and roughly scanned a few photos. From the photos, the scene was very bad, with wires and garbage everywhere.

Returning the mobile phone to the PR manager, Meng Cheng said slowly: "Director Jian and I went to the Expo Center to see it before. At that time, there were no such messy wires, and only the staff were dismantling the scaffolding."

There is no reason to dismantle the shelves and change the wiring.

After listening to Meng Cheng's words, the three managers looked at each other tacitly—the director and director Jian went to the scene together?

Director Jian was still not convinced after losing the fight, so he insisted on going to the scene to see where the budget was spent?

The managers only knew that Meng Cheng was very dedicated and went to see the venue without informing others, but they didn't know that he went with Jian Shi'an.

Now that I know it, the three of them have a thought in their minds - the two of them were alone, didn't they fight at the scene?

Looking at the three managers who fell silent suddenly, Meng Cheng didn't care what they were thinking. The most important thing now was to deal with the exhibition.

Meng Cheng: "Ignore these things for now, and take your time to figure it out later. Since the Expo Center is not working, let's change the venue. Now put aside the work that is not urgent, and let me go out and contact the new venue. Also, stop promoting For the exhibition in the expo center, the copywriters and designers must cheer up and prepare to design the display layout of the new venue at any time..."

After giving all the orders, Meng Cheng stopped the PR manager who was about to go out.

Meng Cheng looked at him: "You call people's attention to what's going on at the Expo Center."

The PR manager responded after hearing this, and then looked at Meng Cheng: "Director, do you suspect that someone among them is doing something wrong?"

Meng Cheng nodded: "If there is a problem, there will be a problem. It's such a coincidence. If there is no problem, there is a ghost."

The PR manager nodded to show that he understood, and turned to leave the meeting room after seeing that Meng Cheng had nothing else to do.

After the PR manager also left, Meng Cheng sent Zhou Ling away, leaving him alone in the meeting room.

Looking at the voided contract on the table and the Expo Center, Meng Cheng unconsciously began to frown.

In recent years, the development momentum of 'w&n' has been very good. They have successfully obtained a piece of cake in the home appliance industry.But while gaining huge benefits, it also established many opponents.

This time, Meng Cheng did not rule out that the competitors were making trouble.

It is clearly written on their flyer that this exhibition is a new product. The exhibition has not yet started, and many people are already looking forward to it online. All have more or less influence.

If this exhibition is not successfully held...

While Meng Cheng was deep in thought, he felt the phone vibrate a few times in his trousers attached to his thigh.

When he came back to his senses, Meng Cheng took out his mobile phone and saw that Jian Shi'an rarely took the initiative to send a message:

Jian Shi'an: [Is it serious? 】

The content of the message is as concise as ever.

Meng Cheng replied: [It's very tricky, time is running out, and there is a problem with the venue, so we have to find another venue, and I don't know if there is any suitable one. 】

When Jian Shi'an saw the news of Meng Cheng's return, he frowned, and the place names flashed through his mind, wanting to see if there was a suitable venue.

Before Jian Shi'an could figure it out, Meng Cheng's second message came again:

[I'm off work soon, let's have dinner and meet up, I haven't seen you for a few days. 】

The author has something to say: One update, there was something not updated in the first two days, and I will make up today and tomorrow~
