白雾回到国际部,气还没消。
路过驰明瑞的办公室时,驰明瑞没关门,看见她,忙喊她进屋。
白雾反正没心思工作,想着听听驰明瑞有什么新指示,趁机转移一下注意力也好,便走了进去。
驰明瑞找她,并不是为了别的事,而是Beth写好了给Alex的回信,请白雾审查,给点意见。
白雾这种时候自然没多大兴趣,看也没看,道:“我昨天已经说得很清楚了,你让她照着那个思路写,有什么难的呢?难道连道个歉也要人教吗?别人教的,能是她发自肺腑的感想吗?”
驰明瑞好脾气地解释道:“你说的是,道歉这种事只有自己真心实意地说出来才有效果,我看Beth写的,说不出来感觉,就觉得是不是有点太过了。她前一封邮件其实犯的错误主要是不够polite,算不上罪不可赦的极端大错,Beth写了一大堆,你看是不是没必要?”
说着,把电脑屏幕扭过来,给白雾看。
白雾倒好奇Beth能把道歉写出什么花来,拿出手机看Beth的邮件,只见Beth写的是:
Dear Alex,
Long time no see!
I didn't receive your reply so I asked my manager Ray the reason, Ray speculate because of my mistake.
I think you may have misunderstand my meaning of my last email, Actually I mean I agree with your choice of H1 and W6, because you know much better of your market than we know, I agree with happiness, and with no little&nbspplaint.
I think you misunderstand me, because of my poor English, I didn't clearly express my meaning by words, but from now on, I will study English more hard, and use more urate words.
The second reason you misunderstand me is when I wrote the email, I was too busy at that time, so I didn't express my real happy emotion enough, making the email too direct, too arrogant, the truth is it is just an illusion.
The third reason is you are the boss, I'm a sales, you may feel my email didn't show enough respect, it's really rootless, I respect you all my heart, please trust me.
Besides, the samples I promise to send you this week, but I didn't know your address, samples now are in my hand, I don't know where to send, today is Friday, can you please reply me your sample delivery address?
Thank you!
白雾读完,看着驰明瑞道:“Beth这封邮件读着不像道歉信,而像检讨书,她写的三个道歉理由,都是你教她的吧?”
“我是跟她提了我认为的,她上一封邮件里不合理的地方,”驰明瑞扶额道:“但是我没想到,她完全照抄,哎!”
白雾道:“她这压根不像道歉,而是在给自己的行为找理由,口口声声说客户误解她,说的好像错不在她,而在客户似的。”
驰明瑞道:“我也是这个感觉,Beth是指望不上了,白雾,你能不能帮个忙,动一动你的金手指,稍微给她改一改?”
“不能!”白雾断然拒绝道。
驰明瑞道:“那你总不能见死不救吧,Cosign好歹是你的客户,你忍心让Beth把这样的邮件发出去,切断Alex的联系啊?”
白雾厌烦道:“那你叫她继续改啊!”
“她的水平就在这儿了,你叫她改也得她会改才行。”驰明瑞道:“要不你再提点具体的意见,我来改,行吗?”
白雾皱着眉头看着驰明瑞,心想你对Beth可真好,看在驰明瑞苦口婆心的份上,分析道:“你这封邮件的重心不是在道歉上,而是搞清楚客户不回邮件的原因,道歉只是个引子。这样你能理解吧?”
驰明瑞点头道:“就是说,邮件要用道歉起头,但是只需要一笔带过,不用长篇大论,后面打听客户不回邮件的原因才是重点,是吧?”
“对!”白雾道:“但我提醒你,打听客户的想法,别又太鲁莽,太直接了,千万不要在邮件里直接写‘客户,你为什么不回复’这样的句子。”
“那不会。”驰明瑞犹豫一下,道:“呃……那个,白雾,邮件的引子,你认为怎么切入比较好?”
白雾听了这个问题,直接站了起来,道:“你再问,这封邮件不如直接让我来写好了!”
说着就往外走。
驰明瑞道:“哎,白雾,我不是这个意思。我的意思是说,表达歉意的办法有两个,我想听听你的意见,用哪一个比较好,毕竟你跟Alex比较熟,知道那种方法效果更好嘛!”
白雾已走到门口,回头道:“道歉不需要你那些虚头巴脑的东西,Beth邮件里说她的英文不好,你不妨直接拿去用。”
说完,开门走了。
白雾回到座位,本想看看邮件,谁知眼睛盯着邮箱,思绪却不知道飞哪去了,没心思工作,遂去健身房跑步,把跑步机的速度调到她能承受的10km/h极限,跑了五分钟,出了一身汗,心情才略有好转。于是又回到座位继续看邮件,不料注意力还是不能集中,于是又去跑步,真是坐立不安,动静皆烦。
如此两三次后,她自认为工作期间,自己应该控制情绪,而不应该被情绪控制,故而尽量放松心情,在跑步机上慢跑,把注意力一丝一缕地往工作上拉。
跑了约有二十分钟,手机忽然响起,白雾拿起来看,却是驰明瑞发来的微信,问:“怎么样,我这样写还行吧?”
原来二十几分钟前,驰明瑞早已把改好的邮件发给她,只是她沉沦在与记忆的搏斗里未曾听到,这时翻上去看,只见驰明瑞写的是:
Dear Alex,
It's been a while since my last email, I have been waiting for your reply these days.
However, I didn't have the fortune to receive a word from you, making me nervous and rethinking why.
After looking back to my last email, I realized that I said something which was not my real intention because of my poor English.
With the help from my manager Ray and Fog, I'm finally sure What I wanted to say is, I believe you are a King in your market, your decision is surely the wisest decision for your market, I entirely agree with all my heart that H1 and W6 is the key to your sess.
To be honest, I have been preparing the samples you chose right after I sent out the mail, now, the samples are in my hand and ready for shipment.
