Yang Ruoqian arrived at the office with a simple belief.
One file could become clean.
Five files could become trouble.
Fifty files could become civilization collapse.
This was the beauty of batches.
A single approval process was too easy for Xplendi's staff to polish.
They would write one note.
Owners would read one note.
Reviewers would answer one question.
Everything would become smooth for reasons that insulted common sense.
But batch approval was different.
Batch approval had numbers.
Numbers created pressure.
Pressure created mistakes.
Mistakes created repeated labor.
Repeated labor created cost.
Cost created hope.
Yang opened the notebook in his drawer.
The drawer made no sound.
This silence was suspicious.
He wrote:
Batch approval cannot become efficient.
The sentence looked reliable.
It had cannot inside it.
Cannot was one of Yang's favorite business words.
At nine, he called the approval team.
Chang Zhiqing sat beside him with a notebook.
