58: Chapter 58 Astonishing Data, An Office Full of Flattery

The next day.

Before the alarm even rang, Qin Xun habitually woke up.

Humans are just cheap. Can't get enough sleep on weekdays, but can't sleep on rest days.

He got up to wash up and found that his mysterious and perverted roommate had already left.

He was already used to it.

A pervert, after all!

Loving work, going to the company to work on a Sunday is understandable.

While brushing his teeth, he played on his phone and found an announcement in the company group chat.

It was sent at 10 PM last night.

"Dear Oak Tree partners, we are very sorry, but the company's upper management has decided to work an extra day tomorrow. Please wear standard attire and arrive on time."

Then, Niu Xiaojun sent a big red envelope in the group.

The colleagues below replied.

"Received!"

"Received!"

"Thank you, President Niu!"

"Grateful!"

...

Qin Xun opened the red envelope with a dark face; the amount was 44.44.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Hey, lucky!"

There was a long string of messages in the group. He couldn't be bothered to read them.

"A bunch of sycophants. Haven't you ever seen money before? Why are you so excited?"

...

He arrived just in time.

To prevent that damn Niu Xiaojun from appearing at the company, Qin Xun wore a mask as usual.

He walked into the company gate, scanned the room, and found that all his colleagues had already arrived.

What a bunch of good little workhorses ready to be slaughtered.

The moment he stepped into the hallway, almost everyone stood up in unison. Their movements were uniform, as if they had rehearsed it.

Everyone had a smile on their face, and their gazes fell upon him.

Qin Xun was stunned and stopped in his tracks.

Something felt wrong!

He smiled and greeted them.

"Good morning, everyone!"

Immediately, a chorus of responses rose up.

"Good morning!"

"Good morning, Supervisor Qin!"

"Good morning, Supervisor Qin!"

...

Almost everyone responded enthusiastically.

The volume was incredibly loud!

Qin Xun was startled and silently took a step back, retreating to the doorway so he could run away at any time.

Looking at his colleagues, who were all beaming with smiles, high-spirited, and acting as if they had been injected with chicken blood, he felt like he had accidentally walked into a pyramid scheme den.

Qin Xun grabbed the doorframe with both hands and looked at Xia Ning, asking with his eyes.

But she just glanced at him indifferently and turned her head away.

At this moment.

Cheng Wan walked out from the office doorway with a smile on her face and started the applause.

"Let us applaud and welcome Supervisor Qin, who successfully planned the 'Little Singer Goes Viral' event and has once again achieved great merit for the company!"

The applause erupted enthusiastically.

It lasted for a full minute, ceaseless.

Looking at this face filled with a sincere smile, Qin Xun adjusted his appearance and walked back into the office.

Like an old cadre, he reached out and pressed his hand down, signaling everyone to stop clapping.

He said in a pretentious tone.

"Oh, we're all colleagues!"

"There's no need to be so formal; this is all what I should do."

The applause became even more enthusiastic!

After ten seconds or so, it gradually subsided.

Cheng Wan smiled.

"Let everyone report the battle situation to Supervisor Qin. I'll go first!"

She cleared her throat.

"The video of Song Ying singing at the wedding, which was posted around 3:30 yesterday afternoon, has already reached 600,000 views and received 40,000 likes!"

Applause erupted.

The finance supervisor's voice was very loud, somewhat proud.

"I have 800,000 views and received 60,000 likes."

Applause erupted again.

The technical department supervisor's voice was even louder and prouder.

"I have 1 million views and received 70,000 likes."

Applause erupted again.

...

"I have 200,000 views and 10,000 likes."

"I have 150,000 views and 12,000 likes."

"I have 330,000 views and 20,000 likes."

...

The reports of numbers rose and fell.

The atmosphere in the office was cheerful.

After everyone finished reporting, Cheng Wan smiled and summarized.

"Excluding the video Xia Ning filmed, which Supervisor Qin has other uses for, I have tallied the others."

"A total of 33 videos, with 8.32 million views and 780,000 likes."

Qin Xun nodded slightly.

In less than a day, this data was already considered very good!

This is a figure that many million-follower influencers find hard to achieve.

Cheng Wan watched Qin Xun's calm expression and couldn't help but feel some admiration.

If this were a project she had planned, her mouth would definitely be stretched to her ears.

"This is all thanks to our Supervisor Qin's dedicated contribution."

"Meticulous planning before the wedding, powerful direction during the wedding, which greatly improved the colleagues' execution."

Pausing for a moment, she looked at Qin Xun and asked with a smile.

"Then how many likes does our Supervisor Qin have?"

"Adding that in, perhaps we could directly break one million!"

A burst of cheerful laughter rang out in the office. Everyone looked at Qin Xun, waiting for his answer with expectant faces.

Cheng Wan was flattering him, and they were happy to add fuel to the fire.

Qin Xun's project plan was so successful; the company would certainly not skimp on their bonuses, so what was wrong with giving him a round of applause?!

As for Xia Ning, she looked speechless.

This Cheng Wan's sycophancy was just too hypocritical!

Qin Xun spent his days hanging out with Song Ying, not even remotely related to any "meticulous planning" or "powerful leadership," yet she made it sound like he had worked himself to death at his post.

Qin Xun looked at everyone's expectant gazes and awkwardly scratched his head.

"I didn't post..."

"The pot of mutton with skin at the wedding banquet was just too delicious; I didn't have time to film."

Xia Ning: "..."

She was too busy filming at the time and really didn't notice.

This guy had to slack off even at such a critical moment.

Cheng Wan: "..."

Her smile froze for a second, but then she smiled again.

"It was my rashness, Supervisor Qin is right."

"You only need to be responsible for the big picture; leave the other small matters to us."

She took the lead in clapping to ease the awkward atmosphere.

In the office, applause rang out.

It was extraordinarily enthusiastic.

Listening to the applause, Xia Ning looked at the unflappable Qin Xun and sighed.

Cheng Wan, you really know how to smooth things over.

No wonder Qin Xun suspected you wanted to sleep with him initially; you are too "doting" on him, aren't you? You even want to kiss his stinky feet!

...

The enthusiastic welcome ceremony for work finally ended!

Qin Xun sat down at his workstation, thinking about how to take Xia Ning to meet Song Ying and finish off the remaining 4,970 points of slacking-off value.

Suddenly, he heard Xia Ning ask.

"Qin Xun, the colleagues gave you such enthusiastic applause; do you feel even a little bit of guilt in your heart?"

Qin Xun turned his head to look at Xia Ning and found a half-smile on her face.

He turned his head away, not intending to pay attention to her, and glanced at the time on his computer desktop; it was already 9:10.

He was suddenly startled and slapped his thigh.

"Oh, holy hell!"

Xia Ning: "!!!"

Qin Xun turned his head, looking at Xia Ning with a face full of pain.

"I forgot to clock in; I'm going to get docked 30 yuan."

Xia Ning: "???"

...

Qin Xun sat on his stool, zoning out.

He found that ever since his status in the company rose, he could openly zone out, and others wouldn't even bother him.

As long as he didn't go too far, like putting his legs on the table, it was fine.

This also counted as slacking off.

But the slacking-off value was rising so slowly!

After a while.

Xia Ning's voice startled him awake.

"Strike while the iron is hot."

"I sent you three emails, which are cooperation invitations from three companies; take a look."

"They are all powerful, big companies."
