The status of Chen Xiang’s assistant in “Dear Inn” is just like a decoration, why can’t he convince the public?

In the third season of "Dear Inn", the boss Liu Tao and the six housekeepers are very popular, but Chen Xiang, the boss's assistant, is rarely mentioned.

Chen Xiang is a familiar face of this show. As a veteran employee of the first season and a guest of the second season, it is not surprising at all that he can become the assistant boss of the third season.

Looking at Chen Xiang’s performance in these four episodes of the third season, it always gives people a translucent and unsatisfactory feeling. If you want to rate his performance, Yu Jijun gave him a score of 60. Although he completed his job, he had no outstanding highlights. His performance was mediocre, and compared to the other members, he seemed even more eclipsed.

He was an assistant at first, which caused dissatisfaction

Chen Xiang's status as an assistant caused the six housekeepers to question him at different levels when they first came to the inn. Questioning his ability to work, questioning his status as a related party, etc.

Once when cooking in the kitchen, Zhang Han threw the ingredients directly to Chen Xiang. When Chen Xiang went to pick them up, Zhang Han directly put the ingredients on the table. It can be seen that Chen Xiang is caught between the six housekeepers and the boss. When there are conflicts between employees and the boss, Chen Xiang, the housekeeper, becomes a punching bag.

Chen Xiang has been an assistant since he arrived. He only relied on his qualifications to participate in the first season of "Dear Inn", and Kan Qingzi also participated in the first season, although the relationship between Chen Xiang and the inn is indeed The six butlers are currently unmatched, but in terms of the development of the entire entertainment industry, Chen Xiang is also the least qualified compared to the six butlers.

During the competition for partners, Zhang Han, Ma Tianyu, and Wu Lei all proposed to Liu Tao to replace Chen Xiang's assistant status. It can be seen that although Chen Xiang is currently doing his job as an assistant well, his relationship with his colleagues is not friendly.

Become a tool to convey instructions

From the current point of view, Chen Xiang and Liu Tao are closest to each other, and he has completed Liu Tao's arrangements relatively well. At this stage, Liu Tao, as the boss, has not yet integrated with the six housekeepers. The situation in the inn is a typical one-family-dominated one. The more meaningless and heavy competition is, the easier it is to intensify conflicts between bosses and employees.

Although Liu Tao is the boss, she cannot overturn the rules of the game set by the program team. Liu Tao, who has been the owner of the inn for three seasons, can quickly appease the dissatisfaction of employees. But before that, Chen Xiang, as the intermediary between the two levels, always acted helpless when faced with the complaints from the housekeepers. This would only make other housekeepers question his ability to work even more.

Ma Tianyu has a high emotional intelligence, but sometimes when he is pushed into a hurry, he has to find someone to vent his anger to. Once at a dinner table in the woods, Ma Tianyu even got angry at Chen Xiang in front of the other butlers. Chen Xiang's reply was just a cold reply that he would report it to his boss. As the boss's assistant with greater authority than the housekeeper, Chen Xiang was unable to come up with effective solutions.

If you can't even do the basic thing of comforting your subordinates, but just serve as a tool to convey the boss's instructions, such an assistant is just like a decoration.

He is too obsessed with details and loses the overall view

Also observing the travel routes of the housekeepers, Li Xiaoran just took a few notes and caught many problems. The core of the game has a good overall control over the desert route of Zhang Han and Wu Lei, and provides a good summary of their efforts and shortcomings.

But Chen Xiang took a notebook and filled three pages with all the details of the housekeepers' poor performance, and took photos of the evidence with his mobile phone.

Obviously, Liu Tao’s original intention was to let Chen Xiang experience the travel route and then come back to make a concluding speech, instead of wasting everyone’s time in a meeting with all members present to explain the flaws in the three-page paper. Spit them all out one by one. In the workplace, I believe no boss would approve of this way of doing things. The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. As a bystander, Chen Xiang saw the six housekeepers being played by the rules, but he did not lend a helping hand. If Chen Xiang and six housekeepers were allowed to compete on the same stage, I believe that many shortcomings in work would be exposed.

My dear inn is relatively small, and the owner Liu Tao is not very busy. Chen Xiang's status as an assistant seems useless. There is obviously only a team of eight people. Apart from the necessary boss, there is no point in setting up an assistant. Many times Chen Xiang is not on camera because while the other six butlers are busy competing, he has nothing to do.

In short, Chen Xiang's assistant position seems very embarrassing, and at the same time, he is also very upset. It is better to compete with the steward. Whether it is a mule or a horse, it still has to be pulled out for a ride. Otherwise, if one's virtue does not match his position, he will never be able to convince the public.
