Meng Yutong and Dong Yuhui look nothing alike. The similarity between
is that individuals have strong abilities and influence. The development of personal talents and the fullness of their wings are inseparable from the company's soil, and they have been suppressed and excluded by the company to varying degrees.
coincided with the news that Dong Yuhui was off the air and Meng Yutong was reprimanded by Dong Mingzhu. This pair of Internet celebrities who are six years apart can be regarded as brothers and sisters.
But at the same time, it should also be noted that outside of the intersection, their situations are also different.
1. The timing of rise is different.
Two years ago, due to the impact of policies, the education and training industry was in dire straits, and New Oriental was not immune. And Dong Yuhui is the major contributor to New Oriental's rapid rise after it switched to the live broadcast track. He is a bit like a founding father. His efforts and talents are of great significance to New Oriental and Oriental Selection. It is impossible to say who takes advantage of whom. .
As for Meng Yutong, she may have been a pawn in Gree's new attempt two years ago, but she was far from saving the company's survival. That is to say, our big corporate machine would be the same with or without you. change. Compared with Dong Yuhui, Meng Yutong was relatively replaceable in the enterprise at that time.
2. Their apparent abilities and talents are different.
Obviously, Dong Yuhui's talent has been fully recognized by the market. This can also be seen from the fans' reaction in this essay incident. The "mother-in-laws" just want to see him and protect him, right?
Moreover, his talent can directly create revenue for New Oriental. He is not from the atmosphere group, but can directly bring real money.
As for Meng Yutong, during his time in Gree, his most outstanding performance was dancing and talking. It felt more like he was used as a mascot and walked around without having any core. Competitiveness.
As for her work after returning to the company, she herself has said that the work of the chairman's secretary is out of touch with the specific business. Although she also participates in e-commerce and market projects, most of them are "aloof" spectators. Instead of "down-to-earth" executors, on the one hand, they will feel that some of their jobs are suspended, and on the other hand, they will worry about whether they have core competitiveness and whether their basic business capabilities will disappear.
What does this equal? Returning to the company will put you in the position of a novice. We will not arrange any core business for you, but will only give you some dispensable corners.
This reminds me of something I learned in an e-commerce company before: as a new intern, if you are not particularly proactive, you have to accept the "shit job" of writing product reviews. So, really Some people voluntarily resigned after writing comments for half a month.
If Dong Yuhui felt more resentment and helplessness at being excluded at this time, then Meng Yutong's biggest dilemma at that time must be - confusion, a fledgling young man's confusion about his future career.
3. The fundamental contradictions they face are different.
Dong Yuhui caused dissatisfaction among the top management within the company. Although he was an excellent salesperson, he was not among the managers. Being too prosperous would displease the top management.
What Meng Yutong faces is the conflict between her leadership training intentions and her personal career plan. In other words, if she insists on "being herself", the first person who will be unhappy will definitely be Dong Mingzhu herself. .
Regarding Meng Yutong leaving Gree, Li Guoqing once made this summary: "I have said before that Meng Yutong will leave sooner or later. Dong Mingzhu said that Meng Yutong will be trained as a manager and will be rotated in the marketing department, but To become the next Dong Mingzhu, it will take eight years no matter what, and Meng Yutong may not be able to handle a sales champion like Gree."
In short, one is slow and the other is difficult. For those who are already confused, For a young person, persisting is equivalent to enduring hardship in hopelessness.
At the same time, Meng Yutong has mentioned more than once that she works long hours and intensively at Gree, but her salary is not high.So for her at that time, staying in Gree was equivalent to overextending her strength for an uncertain future and taking very little money at the same time.
Obviously, this job cannot stimulate her internal drive to "accept challenges and improve herself", nor can it stimulate her external drive.
On the other side, there happened to be a path with "more money, relatively easy work, more scenery, and better access to timely feedback". So following the human principle of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, she naturally made her choice. Of course I just offended Dong Mingzhu by the way.
According to my personal opinion, Dong Mingzhu’s many criticisms of Meng Yutong did not reach the core point. Perhaps what she really wanted to say was only four words: not knowing good from evil. Just, "I gave you a chance, I recognized you, but you turned against me and made your own plans?! Hey, you little girl, you have a great film!"
But what did Meng Yutong do wrong? Woolen cloth? She just wants to choose a career path that will make her grow less anxious and faster, which is understandable.
In fact, newcomers with some ability have the most flexible ideas and have a relatively high job-hopping rate. They have not been beaten by reality and are high-spirited. She will tend to find the path that best meets her ideal expectations in reality. And will not settle for a so-called "guaranteed lower limit."
Dong Yuhui is obviously at another stage of career development. He has already found his strength - the best salesperson among teachers and the best teacher among salespersons. But now he has encountered a bottleneck and is squeezed by external forces. Under pressure, it is no longer enough to dig a well with peace of mind as before. He may need to expand some other abilities, such as management abilities and operating abilities, in order to prepare for starting his own business.
Having said this, I think Meng Yutong and Dong Yuhui are actually very similar. They both belong to the type who are unwilling to be mediocre, willing to do things, and have dazzling personal brilliance. For this reason, they must endure the continuous improvement of themselves. pressure and intolerable obstruction by others.
I would like to compare this type to a "sun" or a "hero", a bit independent and a bit brave.
Wang Ziru, Meng Yutong's former colleague, belongs to the opposite type - "moon" or "strategist". He knows better about leveraging and assisting, and would rather choose a good tree to live in than take risks to achieve the so-called success. Beyond worldly ideals and personal heroism.
Maybe it has something to do with his nature, or maybe his youthful vigor has long been worn away by the dusty journey.
That’s why he made the opposite statement to Meng Yutong: I never look at the salary slip. I think I am very satisfied if I can be next to Dong Zong and watch her work and have meetings every day. .
After saying this, Mr. Dong on the side laughed and narrowed his eyes. Yes, he turned around and was ridiculed by netizens, but the spittle couldn't hurt him in the slightest. Gains and losses, which end is higher, is clear at a glance.
A month ago, everyone was laughing and calling him a flatterer and calling him a villain. A month later, when they saw Meng Yutong and Dong Yuhui being scolded again, they realized it later, and it didn't matter. Right or wrong, everyone has their own way of survival.
