I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 1024
[Chapter nine hundred and eighty-ninth June schedule]
Last week, when Eric’s second assistant, Melanie Gleeson, was resigning to become the vice president of Firefly Electronics’ overseas market operations, most of the people in Eric’s assistant’s office were in a state of confusion. Confused and excited.
What everyone is puzzled is that Melanie Gleeson left, but first assistant Caroline Wilson did not leave at the same time. This change was beyond many people’s expectations.
What is exciting is that although Caroline Wilson has not left, Eric is likely to choose another personal assistant.
Looking at Melanie’s new position, you can see that even if she can serve as a second assistant next to Eric, her future prospects are boundless.
Assistant Office Director Kelly Haynes also quickly announced the candidate for Eric’s new second assistant, and the result was even more unexpected. This position that everyone in the office was looking forward to, fell on the job just now. One year on Marissa Mayer.
Counting Melanie who had just left, there were a total of sixteen employees in Eric’s assistant office.
But among this group, only Marissa Mayer is a rookie in the workplace without even a master’s degree. The others are either top students with a master’s degree or above from an Ivy League school, or MBAs from well-known business schools, most of whom are entering the workforce Has a wealth of work experience before.
The reason why these elites who have enough strength to get an offer from any well-known big company choose to apply for Eric’s office assistant position is the broad career development prospects contained in this position.
So when they learned of this more unexpected appointment, everyone reacted with shock and dissatisfaction.
If big bosses choose personal assistants not based on personal ability but on other factors such as appearance, then do they need to continue their current jobs?
However, the next few personnel appointments immediately dispelled everyone’s doubts.
After Melanie left, Kelly selected three of the best second assistant candidates and submitted them to Eric based on the daily work performance of the office assistants. Although these three people did not get Eric’s personal assistant positions, However, they were respectively assigned to Firefly Group, Nokia and Yahoo as the manager-level management of the second-level department. Although the position is one level lower than that of the vice president of the first-level department of Melanie’s large company, this career starting point is enough. It is the envy of many professional elites.
In fact, the core of this personnel transfer in Eric’s assistant office is the personnel appointment for the three office assistants.
The Firefly system is growing bigger and bigger. In order to strengthen his control over his business empire, Eric has deliberately accelerated the speed of placing cronies in various companies in the system.
At the same time as the announcement of this personnel appointment, the office also began to recruit new office assistants. This time, the recruitment standards were more stringent, and a professional headhunting company was also used, because in the future, Eric will make a similar personnel appointment every year, and the number of people will be transferred. It will also increase accordingly, and gradually realize the ‘Matrix’ in which the ‘Agent Smith’ who was born in Eric’s assistant office gradually spread throughout the entire Firefly system.
After several years of experience, Caroline alone is enough to handle all the work that Eric’s personal assistant needs to do. Strictly speaking, Eric no longer needs a second assistant. Therefore, for Marissa Mayer , which is indeed out of Eric’s personal preference.
Since the announcement of the news, Marissa Mayer has been in a trance in recent days.
She is a very confident person, but she never felt that it only took a year for her to get to the position of Eric Williams’ personal assistant. No one else in the office was more qualified than her.
Considering her boss’s romantic character, Marissa Mayer’s first reaction was that Eric might have other ideas about her.
However, after thinking about it, she had no intention of rejecting the position at all, and only a fool would reject it if she was joking.
After getting the news from her immediate boss, Kelly Haynes, Marissa Mayer agreed immediately.
The tedious onboarding procedure started on Tuesday and lasted for three full days. It took her most of the day just to read six thick confidential documents in detail.
“Finally, here are the keys to two apartments, one in Beverly Hills and one in Malibu. The documents have information on these two apartments. You need to choose the place closest to Eric according to the actual situation. , and, you can choose not to live in these two apartments, but you must not rent them to others,” Burbank Firefly headquarters, Kelly is tithing some things to Marissa Mayer: “You still have one For the car, this is the key, and two mobile phones, remember to keep it on 24 hours a day. All these expenses, such as house, car, mobile phone, etc., are fully reimbursed by the company, you don’t need to care, just be yourself their job.”
Marissa Mayer listened carefully, carefully put away all the things that Kelly handed over, and finally remembered something, and asked carefully: “Kelly, can’t I bring other people in for those two apartments?”
“Of course not. In private, you can hold a party in the apartment or entertain relatives and friends. There is no problem with these, but you can’t rent or lend the house to others for a long time.” Kelly shook her head, raised her wrist and looked at her watch , said: “Carly should have come over, let’s go, I’ll invite you to have dinner together, and get acquainted with each other by the way. Today’s “Iron Man” is finished, and soon you will follow Eric to fly everywhere, so you need to enter as soon as possible working condition.”
Marissa Mayer went out with Kelly, wondering: “Kelly, is Mr. Williams going on a business trip recently?”
“It’s not a business trip, but it’s also related to work,” Kelly said while walking with Marissa Mayer: “In the next June, Eric will probably go to New York first, stay there for half a month, and then Flying to Europe for a week, Nokia CEO Yooma Ollila’s contract is up, he has to deal with Nokia’s management changes, and Virgin Records has just been acquired over there in London. Last stop is Australia, you know , The “Lord of the Rings” trilogy has been filming for half a year, and he needs to see it for himself. Oh, the detailed schedule needs to be arranged by you and Carly. ”
Marissa Mayer smiled and said, “I didn’t expect that I would be able to travel around the world so soon.”
“Yeah, speaking of which, it’s actually quite easy to be by his side. He’s a good boss. He’s neither strict nor harsh, and he won’t turn you around like a mule.”
Marissa Mayer looked at Kelly’s slightly reminiscent expression without a trace, paused, and asked carefully, “Kelly, can I ask, why, why is it me?”
Kelly looked at Mayer’s cautious appearance, smiled, and said, “What I’m going to say next is also within the scope of the confidentiality clause. Do you know the relationship between Carly and Eric?”
Mayer was obviously a little confused, and nodded with a blushing face.
Kelly shook her head helplessly and said, “No, you are wrong. Actually, Karlie is Eric’s cousin.”
Mayer raised his head in surprise: “Huh?”
Kelly had just used the word ‘cousin’, which in English means both cousins and cousins, which surprised Mayer, who had always heard of it, except when she passed away many years ago. Eric’s father, Eric has no relatives.
And, didn’t the rumors say that Caroline Wilson likes the boss very much, and if they are in this relationship, can they still have feelings for each other?
Kelly noticed the doubt in Mayer’s eyes and explained: “Carly’s father and Eric’s mother are brothers and sisters. So, that’s it, Carly likes Eric, it’s true, this relationship It’s not a taboo in the UK. You’re going to be with Eric next, and you definitely need to know this, but remember, just do your own job, and don’t meddle in the rest.”
Mayer digested the news he just heard, nodded, and then said: “But, does this have anything to do with my entry?”
Kelly said: “If you have seen Carly, you should know that she is a very good girl, and one person is enough for the job. Therefore, this nominal second assistant will fall on you. As for Ai I don’t know if Rick has other thoughts.”
Suddenly realizing that he was ‘dispensable’, and maybe even just a beautiful vase that Eric had kept beside him wherever he went. What to say.
Looking at Mayer whose expression was changing, Kelly hesitated and reminded in a low voice, “I said just now that Eric is actually a very considerate man, so if you don’t want to do something, just refuse it explicitly. , he won’t pester you. Moreover, things are not necessarily what you think.”
Mayer nodded, but he couldn’t help worrying about gains and losses: If he refused, would he still be able to continue the job?
Although it might seem odd to like her cousin, Caroline’s sincerity in dealing with others made Mayer quickly feel close to this petite girl.
The three chatted very harmoniously over dinner. Early the next morning, Caroline personally drove to Burbank to pick up Mayer to go to Firefly Studios. Today is Mayer’s first day at work. Due to work reasons , she originally rented the apartment in Burbank, but the move can only wait until the weekend.
In just a few short encounters, Mayer had the idea of sharing a room with Caroline, just like Melanie had done before.
It’s just that the company has arranged two apartments for her, and she doesn’t know Eric’s idea, and Mayer has not proposed it.
On the way to Firefly Studios, Caroline handed a folder to Mayer, then held the steering wheel earnestly, and said a little while driving: “We can meet Ari in the morning. I saw the display effect of the first reald system together. I heard that it is very good. The information is here, you can take a look first. In the afternoon, we will help Eric make an itinerary, contact the flight route, stop at the airport, and make an appointment in advance. Schedule, getting a place to live, and so much more. I can help you move on the weekends off, next Monday we’re flying to NYC with Eric, and probably won’t be back for another month, so what do you have? Things need to be arranged in advance.”
Mayer kept nodding his head and opened the document that Caroline handed over. This is the basic information of the reald dual-camera 3D movie projection system developed by the digital domain. After reading for a while, Mayer asked: “The reald system , is that, the ‘4200’ plan?”
In the past year, Mayer was mainly responsible for the work related to several technology companies. She didn’t know much about the Firefly Group, but she still knew about the ‘4200’ plan.
Caroline nodded and said, “Yes, when you get to the office, you can see the detailed information on our dedicated server.”
The two women arrived at Firefly Studios at 8:45. Just after they parked the car in the parking lot, they saw Eric getting off another black luxury car in the parking lot. There was also a tall and slender person who got off with him. The blonde, Mayer recognized as the Victoria’s Secret Angel Natasha Henstridge, who had starred in Iron Man some time ago.
Looking at the natural intimacy of the two people after getting off the car not far away, and thinking of some possibility of Eric transferring himself to his side, Mayer suddenly had a faint taste, UU reading www.sonicmtl.
com When Eric smiled and patted the girl’s hip lightly, Mayer suddenly remembered Caroline beside him, and hurriedly turned to see the girl’s reaction.
Caroline stood by the side holding a folder, her thin lips pursed lightly, looking at the two of them with a little resentment in their eyes, she seemed to be hesitant to walk over.
Eric naturally saw the two of them soon, and walked over with Natasha Henstridge: “Morning, Carly, and Mary, now, this is Nata, you should all know each other. ”
After introducing each other a few words, Natasha Henstridge took the initiative to say goodbye: “Eric, then I’ll go first, you are busy.”
Natasha Henstridge came here today to formally discuss the “Underworld” contract, which does not require Eric to come forward in person.
“Well, goodbye, I’ll call you when I’m free,” Eric hugged the girl, saw her meeting with the agent who had been waiting outside the parking lot, and then walked towards the administrative area, before turning to the two girls and laughing. : “Let’s go too, Stan should be ready.” After Eric finished speaking, looking at Caroline’s small appearance with still slightly pursed lips, he smiled, reached out to hold the little face of this girl, and lowered his head. He pecked her cheek and kissed a small white face into a red apple, and then said, “Okay, I don’t agree with you wanting to pretend to be angry and skip work.”
Caroline blinked a few times, and quickly followed Eric towards the digital domain office area, while dissatisfied: “I am not angry, Eric, you have to apologize to me, you just really really It’s too abrupt.”
Eric said in a serious tone: “Okay, I apologize.”
Caroline immediately forgave Eric, the nth time.
Mayer silently followed the two of them, suddenly comprehending Kelly’s reminder yesterday, and consciously pretended that she didn’t exist.
