Chapter Ninety-Seven: Chen Niannian
The manufacturing industry seems to have always been the hardest hit area of overtime, especially the clothing-related industry.
"After all, there are mostly women in this industry," He Qixin has his own opinion on this, saying: "It's not easy to have a career that can be done and time, and many people are working hard." ”
If you chase after me, if you don't want to be left behind, you can only work hard with more energy than others.
Of course, there are many people who choose to be relaxed and stable, but such people are often not at VISION. In other words, I will not come to VISION.
When VISION is famous in the industry, it is not because of any beautiful and amazing achievements, but because the people here dare to fight.
At the beginning, VISION had only two people, and finally gradually developed and grew, and later became one of the top few leaders in the industry, but it only took this year. Here, the more you give, the more you gain.
There was even a saying in the industry that VISION was the best training school in the local industry.
Needless to say, those who stay, but those who leave, no matter what kind of new environment they go to, adapt and grow faster than others.
"All I want to try. During the interview, the young and immature Chen Niannian looked at Lin Xiao with a serious face and said.
"If you just have the mentality of trying it out," Lin Xiao put the document on the table, leaned back slightly, and looked resolute and a little impatient: "You won't be happy here." ”
At that time, Lin Xiao had just been promoted to the position of supervisor, in addition to the fatigue caused by long-term overtime, the corners of his eyes rose slightly, full of unacceptable firmness and
It seems that he didn't expect to be rejected with such resolute and direct words, Chen Niannian, who had just left school, was still a little uncomfortable, and there was a brief embarrassment on his face.
"Nor ...... I don't just want to try it. Chen Niannian paused for a moment, organized the language in his mind, and then continued: "When I was interning before, I heard of VISION, which is very powerful and longing. ”
"And ......" Chen Niannian was a little embarrassed when he said this, and his voice was so low that he couldn't do it: "I've heard of you too." ”
Very young, but very hard-working and capable business.
"What?" Lin Xiao didn't hear the second half of her sentence clearly, and glanced up at her.
Chen Niannian suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and hurriedly waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing." ”
Lin Xiao finally passed Chen Niannian's interview, making her the first newcomer in her department.
Some people want to be stable and comfortable, as long as there are no storms in life, everything is completely enough. But some people always want to brave the wind and waves and let themselves stand higher and farther.
Lin Xiao is such a person, and so is Chen Niannian.
After officially becoming a member of VISION, Chen Niannian really put a lot of energy into learning and working, as she said at the beginning, which was several times higher than the newcomers in the same period.
However, what Chen Niannian didn't say was that she was not in good health.
Perhaps the more people who do not have the opportunity and conditions, the more they want to try and have success.
"You've been looking bad lately, so get off work early when you're done, and don't work overtime. Lin Xiao looked at Chen Niannian, who was taking medicine, and frowned: "There is nothing that must be done on the same day, just adjust the work rhythm appropriately during the day." ”
"Hey, hey. Chen Niannian brought the medicine bottle behind him without a trace, and smiled embarrassedly: "It's to supplement vitamins, I've eaten too much fish and meat recently, and I have been buffering." ”
In addition to being very famous in the industry, VISION's work intensity and pace are also high and fast.
Unlike the overtime mode in the Internet industry, which is almost close to 007, although VISION works overtime, the time usually does not exceed eight or nine o'clock, mainly due to the intensity of work during the day. From the beginning of work, I can be nervous and busy until the end of work.
"When things are almost done, I leave work and go relax and rest. After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he thought about it, and couldn't help but add very bluntly: "Don't learn from me." ”
Chen Niannian immediately laughed, drank most of the glass of water, and suppressed his emotions a lot. looked at Lin Xiao half-jokingly and said, "That's not good, my boss told me when I first joined the company, and the most worthy person in the whole company is you." ”
Lin Xiao complained ruthlessly: "Can you believe the boss's words? He is evil capitalism, if we work harder, he will be able to change a car again next year." ”
It seems that Lin Xiao, who has always regarded the word work as his life creed, would say such a thing, Chen Niannian was a little dumbfounded for a while.
After Lin Xiao walked away, Chen Niannian caught up with him in hindsight, glanced curiously in Lin Xiao's direction, opened his mouth but didn't speak.
"Say whatever you want. Lin Xiao glanced at the time, and while picking samples in the sample room, he said without looking back: "Wait until this courier is sent, and after notifying the guests by email, you will get off work first." ”
Not to mention not working overtime, it's still a long time before the normal end of work.
Chen Niannian suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and said: "Actually, I really don't need to...... I've been lacking vitamins recently, so I'm going to take some supplements. ”
As if he was afraid that Lin Xiao would not believe it, Chen Niannian sighed and began to carefully try to explain again: "You see that I am alive and well, why don't I look like I am sick." ”
"Besides," Chen Niannian changed his words, looked at Lin Xiao, and said, "If you are really sick, it is too late to ask for leave and go back to be lazy, how can you still want to insist on going to work." I'm not you. ”
I'm not you.
When Lin Xiao heard her words, he finally turned his gaze, and the expression on his face was quite serious.
Chen Niannian suddenly became nervous.
"Forget it. In the end, Lin Xiao took the lead and did not collapse, waved his hand helplessly, and said, "Recently, I have eaten more vegetables and less heavy oil and spicy things." Just entered the society, you have to suddenly face such a big work pressure and work rhythm, even if there is no problem temporarily, you must pay attention to it in advance, otherwise when there is a problem, it will be too late. ”
"Okay, okay. Chen Niannian nodded like pounding garlic, and when he saw that the topic was opened, he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
"That's right. Lin Xiao seemed to suddenly think of something, turned his head to look at Chen Niannian, and said casually: "Have you never handed in the physical examination report, and find an opportunity to go to the hospital to do the physical examination after a while." ”
Chen Niannian was stunned for a moment, and said with a little weakness: "Recently, the administration has not been urging it." ”
"It's not rushed, but it's all to be prepared anyway, you just give them in advance. ”
Probably worried that she wouldn't find the right time, Lin Xiao thought about it for a while, and then took the initiative to say: "Look at when you want to go, just talk to me and ask for two days off." ”
"Oh. Chen Niannian nodded, and said after a while: "Then let's go after this time, isn't it time to prepare for the exhibition?" ”
Just after the New Year, most of the customer groups facing foreign trade do not need to spend the Spring Festival, and now is the peak period for development inquiries and orders. The things left over during the Chinese New Year are waiting in line to be dealt with. Next is the spring exhibition in March, and it is a new peak period after being busy. It's a mess of busyness, and it's estimated that it will take almost June or July to barely be empty.
Lin Xiao glanced at Chen Niannian a little helplessly, and said, "Why are you like a child, you don't dare to go to the hospital for a physical examination?"
Chen Niannian laughed twice, scratched his head and didn't speak.
"Then you can do it yourself, arrange a time to talk to me. ”
"Okay!" Chen Niannian immediately agreed.
"Sister Kobayashi. Chen Niannian didn't be quiet for a while, he couldn't help it, and he said to Lin Xiaolai in a polite manner: "You talk about us every day, let us work leisurely, but it turns out that you are not like this." ”
"Me, what's wrong with me?"
Let's take it easy, leave work early when things are almost over, and end up staying late in the company every day. The more Chen Niannian spoke, the more energetic he became, and his heart seemed to be a little unbalanced: "It is said that you lead by example, you are busy until so late, how can we learn to be lazy." ”
"Isn't this good?" I didn't expect her to say this, Lin Xiao suddenly cried and laughed, and said, "Just do your own thing, don't put too much pressure on yourself." Overtime is just incidental, the company does not have a specific assessment, and it does not look at your seniority and overtime hours. There is really no need for hard overtime. Going to work is just a part of life, and when this part is done, just go and have a good rest. ”
Although the work intensity is high and the pace is relatively intense, Vantes can be regarded as a little "open-minded" in some aspects. It does not emphasize excessive overtime, nor does it use overtime as a basis for employee evaluation.
The workplace has always been cruel to reality, whether it is whether the process is performative or genuinely serious and hardworking, only care about the final result.
As for the process, it is the least important.
"What about you? Don't you have no spare time?"
Lin Xiao was only slightly stunned, then smiled indifferently and said, "There is nothing else." ”
At the beginning, Lin Xiao was like countless graduates who had just stepped into society. He is full of endless fantasies about his future, but at the same time, he is full of complaints and self-doubts about his day-to-day work, constantly struggling between positivity and being at ease with what happens.
But gradually, Lin Xiao felt that he completely liked the job, liked it here, and could even say that it was enjoyment.
This kind of love is quite pure, and every day is busy, constantly rotating between suppliers, factories and customers. I saw that the products and patterns I chose were constantly promoted, and they were made into eye-catching ready-to-wear clothes that hung in the brand's stores.
Every day, countless people pass by, maybe they throw a surprise glance at them, or they just put them on and buy them home.
Consumers may remember this pattern, remember this brand, and even remember the relevant designer, but few people pay attention to or even completely know what the fabric is and where it is made. Behind a finished product, there are hundreds or even thousands of people, they will not be remembered by others, and they may not be able to remember themselves, but the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that comes from it, along with the salary, is endless.
And Lin Xiao unconsciously took the opportunity to completely immerse himself in this happiness.
Different people, whether it is life or work, have different or even opposite concepts and understandings. But for her, the only thing she thinks is meaningful is her work.
"I kind of love my job. Lin Xiao smiled and said.
"Me too. ”
Lin Xiao heard Chen Niannian's voice say softly, but when she turned her head, the other party was already busy with other things with her back to her.
At that time, Lin Xiao was still thinking about whether it was a good thing that a young girl could find something she liked so quickly. Moreover, at an age when the mood is unstable, no matter how loud the slogans of liking and upward are shouted, it may only be a short moment.
There are too few people who can calm down early, immerse themselves in what they like, and continue to work hard for it. In other words, there are too few young people who have always been smooth sailing, and they can do this.
What Lin Xiao didn't expect was that Chen Niannian was indeed like this.
She likes this job from the bottom of her heart, and she wants to be like Lin Xiao and keep moving up.
But she wasn't destined to fail.
High-intensity work accelerates the deterioration of physical ailments. She drove Lin Xiao's car, and on the way to the factory, drove straight into the lake and sank.
It was the spring of Chen Niannian, who was only twenty-three years old, in the second year after entering /VISION.
