Li Jingsheng finished speaking and quietly looked at Xiaogao.
"According to what you’ve said, is there still hope for this new business to take off in the future?"
"I believe it definitely can. There are just some areas that need improvement. In the future, when it grows bigger and stronger, one must not be complacent but always remain sharp in the market, keeping up with the times. You must have a sense of crisis; this is what a sales manager like you should possess. As for the current downturn, what’s that? It’s nothing. If you can’t even maintain composure over this, you can’t possibly become a qualified sales manager.
Let alone becoming the Deputy Director of Business at Sunshine Hospital in the future."
Li Jingsheng’s greatest skill is painting bright futures for his employees.
When Xiaogao’s career faced setbacks, some proper stimulus was indeed necessary.
This is called boosting morale.
"I’ve been too impatient. Boss, I know what to do now."
Xiaogao stood up.
"Where are you going?"
"Home to freshen up and then have breakfast. I also need to ask you for a two-hour leave; I pulled an all-nighter yesterday, and I’m afraid I’ll scare the customers with my current state. I’ll rest at home for two hours and come back to work."
Under Li Jingsheng’s reassurance and encouragement, Xiaogao reignited his confidence.
Only by going through setbacks can one become stronger and stronger.
Just like the trees that withstand rain and storms, toughening as they go.
"I’ll give you the whole morning off, come to the clinic for lunch at noon. I have to go to the Second Hospital for consultations today, set an alarm, don’t oversleep."
Li Jingsheng said.
"Alright! Thanks, boss! Actually, I’d rather call you Brother Li. Without your help, I wouldn’t have anything I have now."
Xiaogao’s eyes turned slightly red.
It’s unclear whether he was touched by a small kindness from Li Jingsheng, or if his eyes were just bloodshot from not resting the previous night.
"Haha, I find that title very endearing, much better than ’boss’. If you dare to call me Brother Li, then I’ll dare to call you Xiaogao, and we’ll all feel at ease."
Li Jingsheng laughed heartily and gladly accepted.
Compared to Xiaogao, this not-boss of his seemed much more mature and quick to grow.
For instance, seeing the downturn in city-wide convenient medicine delivery, Li Jingsheng was equally hit hard. But he could quickly adjust his mindset and take it easy.
This has vaguely reached a higher state of mind where one is unmoved even with burdens.
Only a man who has gone through major trials and successfully stood back up can have such experience and mindset.
At this moment, Tang Ping had already come to work.
She usually didn’t come in this early.
"Dr. Gao, how was the city-wide medicine delivery business yesterday?"
"Sold two orders, better than getting a zero."
Xiaogao responded with a wry smile.
But his spirits weren’t low anymore; instead, he was filled with new vigor.
"Ah... that’s much better than I anticipated! Our clinic isn’t the first to launch this service. I heard a well-known chain pharmacy only sold three orders in a week after launching it! We’re already doing better than them!"
