So except for the big guy and the planning team leader Liang Lu who knew where she came from, few people in the company really knew where Lin Xi came from, and they only thought she was a newcomer.

Although he has no work experience, Lin Xi has a U.S. degree from one of the world's top 100 companies, and he barely passed the entrance to Lavida.

But the office is a place for pregnancy and birth gossip, and naturally some people will say a few words before they meet anyone.

"A financial student into the marketing department?"

"The university she graduated from is said to be a gathering place for Internet celebrities in North America?"

"I heard it's a relative of Lucy?"

"It's impossible, Director Liang has always had a clear distinction between public and private, didn't his relatives scold him so much before?"

"Hey, I heard that the CMO arranged it directly. ”

"Really? I went to HR to inquire and said that it was a related management trainee. ”

"Then it's all based on relationships, right?"

When a group of people met Lin Xi on Monday morning, it aggravated the two labels of "Internet celebrity" and "related household".

looks like a cute young girl group, and wears clothes that can't be called a brand but feels very good. Sometimes the temperament that you are born with, or that you have cultivated since childhood, can't hide it.

In fact, Lin Xi thought about dressing for a long time, and only then did he get a few niche brands from his wardrobe that were not even light luxury.

Liang Lu asked everyone to introduce themselves and talk about their usual hobbies. After a circle of team members, Lin Xi looked very serious and hard, but in the end, he didn't write down a few names.

She has never been a good at remembering names, she has been abroad for a long time, 8 of the 10 male classmates are named David, and the remaining 2 are named Chris, and she has always been severely face blind.

A group of people in the planning team all said English names, and she was really dazzled.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lindsey," she was meant to say by her real name. After his sophomore year, Lin Xi never liked to use an English name, and felt that his name was dignified, why did he have to use another name?

The speed of the brain is enough, but for fear of being recognized, I finally changed my words. Although this matter will eventually be known if it is intentional or not, it will not be hidden for long. But at least now Lin Xi wants to be so ordinary, to be able to mingle with everyone and not be treated with colored glasses.

"Usually like, shopping, outdoor and good food. ”

She doesn't like to shop online because she likes to buy custom.

She doesn't like to stay at home, because she is full of restless factors, drag racing, diving, traveling, and can't refuse.

As for food, she is not a picky eater, she is good at appetite, so she has no obsession with food. And she knows how to be very restrained, and when she cleanses her intestines and diets, she won't even touch her favorite wine.

In fact, Lin Zhengxiong has always advocated the governance of foreign companies, so except for those who have really risen to the level of management team leader or above, everyone else sits in open desks.

Especially in the technical group, a group of people held the title of team leader and director, but they still sat at the open workstation and mingled with the masses.

In fact, Liang Lu also talked to Lin Xi last Friday, and today he is going to ask for work, and Liang Lu wants to give Lin Xi some choices.

After all, he still had some scruples, so after the morning meeting, Lin Xi followed him into Liang Lu's office and closed the door.

As soon as the door closed, everyone outside the house started a tea party.

Inside the office.

"It's almost a year away, and the most important thing in the planning department is the planning of the annual meeting of each branch. This year's plan was originally to organize everyone to go to Shanghai on a voluntary basis, but there will be a major international exhibition in Shanghai after the year, and hotel bookings are tight. And Nancheng had another investment promotion conference a year ago, and I was worried that it would be overwhelmed, so the group's annual meeting was set in the imperial capital. ”

Lin Xi sat opposite Liang Lu as a primary school student, nodding obediently.

"I heard that it is still Lin in the Nancheng Investment Association," Liang Lu swallowed it by himself before he finished speaking, "Lindsey, you and the mayor have made a decision over there, right?"

Lin Xi continued to nod obediently, she and Qi Xiuyuan's mother had decided on this matter a few months ago.

"Then you see, do you want to participate in the planning and organization of the investment promotion or the annual meeting?"

Both are major events at the end of the year.

Merchants Lin Xi naturally has to participate in the work he has taken. And the annual meeting of the imperial capital, whether selfish or not, is a good opportunity to expand contacts.

Lin Xi pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, "Can I participate both?"

"The China Merchants Association in Nancheng, the flagship Accord of Lavida, is also a job I have taken over by myself, whether I am a shareholder of Lavida or a staff member of the planning department, this is a very important activity for me. I guess the specific planning plan of the China Merchants Association has almost taken shape, and the municipal government must have a special person in charge, but when the time comes, I think I can participate in the study of the operation and control of the site. ”

"The annual meeting of the imperial capital," she tilted her head and thought about her words, "There is probably a month and a half, right? This is the first time I have been able to participate in the organization and planning of large-scale events since joining the planning department, not to mention how much I can contribute, but I believe it will be a very good learning opportunity." ”

"So Lucy, can you get me to do both?"

Lin Xi said so, Liang Lu must not refuse. There is a gap of nearly 10 days between the two activities, one before the Spring Festival and the other after the Spring Festival, and it is indeed feasible to arrange materials or control the site for Lin Xi.

*

Liang Lu led Lin Xi out of the office and asked April, the administrative assistant of the planning team, to take her through the office.

The publicity planning team occupies most of the workstations on the 22nd floor of the headquarters of Langyi South City, and shares the first floor with the IT3 group. Lin Xi wondered why he wasn't on the same level as other groups in the marketing department, such as branding or marketing.

"First, there are many people in the planning team and many positions. Second, I also heard that although they are all marketing departments, several groups often disagree on decision-making, so it is better not to maintain a little distance relationship on the first floor. ”

Aril looks like Lin Xi is the same age, and his small round face looks like a simple-minded newcomer who has just come out of society. Just like people born in June will give themselves the English name June, she was born in April, and April came like this.

April's look at Lin Xi is also a general feeling. Although Lin Xi looks like a rumor, she looks very beautiful and looks like a rich second generation, but her speech and demeanor do not give people a sense of distance, and the two are of the same age. People who are not deep in the city government are so superficial and one-sided in judging the good and bad of things.

"Lin Xi, I'm just curious to ask. April introduced to the pantry on the 22nd floor, and when she saw that there was no one, she had less scruples and asked a personal question, "Why did you enter Lavida?"

Lin Xi really has never had a serious interview experience in his life.

April may have just asked casually, or maybe she was intentionally inquiring, but as soon as her question came out, Lin Xi suddenly had a kind of déjà vu that the university was doing a mock interview at the Career.Center Vocational Training Center.

Fortunately, she has experience in mock interviews, not to mention that she has more than 20 years of experience in Lavida, even if she does not have an in-depth understanding. So the answer to the all-purpose plaster blurted out.

"First of all, I am very optimistic about the future development of Lavida, which can develop from a domestic industry giant to an overseas group and have a place in the international hotel industry, both in terms of enterprise scale and development prospects. ”

"Second, I like Lavida's business philosophy very much, in recent years, it has become more and more biased towards Europe and the United States, but it has maintained its own characteristics, openness, inclusiveness and order, and the development prospects of the company I just said are good, and the career development in such a company will be more stable. ”

"Thirdly, although I studied finance, I didn't even know what finance was, so I followed the trend and chose a popular major recommended by a study abroad agency, but it was not what I was interested in. In fact, I have always been interested in marketing, design, and creativity, so I feel very lucky to be able to join the marketing department of Lavida this time, and I can learn a lot. ”

Lin Xi's words were clear and clear, and he gave a passing answer in the interview, and by the way, he also praised his own company.

If you can't deceive the high rank, you can at least fool April. The other party was stunned when he heard this, and he became more and more convinced that Lin Xi could enter the company by his own strength, but he was rumored by everyone.

However, April really wanted to ask for some more expertise about the market, and Lin Xi was about to reveal his stuff in a minute.

*

During lunch, Liang Lu originally planned to take Lin Xi to the cafeteria, but April volunteered to pull Lin Xi up.

The canteen is located on the B1 floor of the Langyi South City headquarters building, and the structure is similar to a food court, with various stalls on the outside and seats in the open area in the middle. The area is large, and in addition to Lavida's employees, it is also open to the public. There are also many white-collar workers who work nearby.

Lin Xi asked for a PokeBowl Hawaiian rice bowl in front of the Japanese food stall, speaking of which, she suddenly fell in love with Poke when she first arrived abroad, and Lin Zhengxiong was Amway when he came to visit Lin Xi on a business trip, and then added such a stall in the cafeteria.

April ordered a Chinese-style box lunch, waited for Lin Xi to sit down, compared the food in the bowls of the two, and suddenly felt guilty, "You eat so healthy?"

Lin Xi looked at the food of April's friends around her, realized what she was referring to, and responded, "No, salmon is also high in fat and protein, and it is not much healthier." ”

"Hello everyone, I'm Lindsey, a new recruit in the planning team. I consciously said hello to the people around me.

The other two people at the table immediately introduced themselves, and Yan Yi was also from the planning team, but Lin Xi didn't remember her name before.

Another girl, Xiaoqi, is in the supply chain and graduated from the hotel management major.

"Hey, yes, will your team leader talk about the annual meeting this morning?"

April, "Having said that, this year it is set in the imperial capital, the company will reimburse the travel expenses and hotels, and the tour group will be organized after that, and you can sign up at your own expense." However, the number of places is limited, so you have to start quickly. ”

Yan Yi, "If you sign up for the show, the tour group fee can be freed, and I plan to find a few people to sign up for a hot dance together." ”

Lin Xi also participated in several annual meetings of Lavida before going abroad, and it seems that there are employees on stage to show their talents. After studying abroad, I didn't go to class in China for the New Year, but Lin Zhengxiong would send her pictures, and there would be related news on the company's official website. In the past few years, it has become bigger and bigger, and I have begun to invite celebrities to help with the fun.

April was a little moved by the reward for participating in the show, and looked at Lin Xi, "Are you interested?"

Lin Xi nodded, and she told Liang Lu that she wanted to participate in the preparations.

And April thought that Lin Xi was also interested in reimbursing the tour group expenses, "Then Yan Yi, your show counts me and Lindsey." ”

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, I'm interested in preparing for the annual meeting." I told Director Liang that maybe I would go to the imperial capital to do the venue decoration before the year or on the first day of the Lunar New Year. ”

"Hey, aren't you celebrating the New Year in Nancheng?" Xiao Qi was curious, "I also wanted to prepare for the annual meeting at the time, but I heard that I might have to go to the imperial capital before the year, and my parents definitely didn't agree that I wasn't at home for the New Year, so I didn't apply." ”

Lin Xi has not been in China for the New Year for several years, and if she goes to the imperial capital after the New Year, she plans to go to the Lin family's old house to celebrate the New Year with her grandfather.

"It will depend on the situation. To put it lightly, she misses the bustle of a family reunion, but she can't stand the cold atmosphere overseas.

After lunch, Lin Xi looked at some recent planning arrangements of the marketing department in the office for a while, and one of them was a summary of Lavida's charity this year.

Lin Xi looked at the computer screen, silently thoughtful.

*

On the first day of work, Lin Xi stayed in the office until half past one, and then rushed back to school.

Yan Yi took advantage of his leisure and handed April a small can of nut snacks, "Why did you leave after only half a day?"

April smiled and opened the lid and ate a purple potato peanut, "She is still a graduate student at NTU, and she has classes in the afternoon." ”

"Hey? Liang Lu didn't say that she was an intern, a regular employee, right? And didn't someone inquire from HR and say that she was a management trainee?"

The boy next door leaned over, "Since it's an airborne management trainee, that person can go to work whenever he likes, don't gossip, Lucy is going out of the office." ”

As soon as the words fell, Liang Lu walked out of the office, April quickly put away the snacks in her hand, and Yan Yi also pretended to discuss work with her.

"Yan Yi, come to my office. ”

The person named quickly ran away, and April gave her a little "self-helping" little expression.

"Lucy, what do you command?"

"You've been in contact with the person in charge of the Imperial Capital's annual meeting before, right? The outline of the current planning, process, promotion, cooperation and budget can not be specific and detailed, but it must be formed. Give it to me tomorrow before noon, and the marketing department will have a meeting in the afternoon to discuss the details. ”

The reason why Liang Lu was able to climb to the position of director of the publicity planning group in her early thirties was not only because of her ability, but also because of her management style.

It is precisely because of her ability and experience that she is different from the leader who needs her subordinates to work hard to figure out her intentions and doesn't even know what she expects to be, she arranges tasks quickly and accurately, with clear goals.

It saves subordinates from wasting time on speculation and less of repeatedly modifying and detouring.

Yan Yi secretly complained in her heart, she originally planned to swipe Weibo on her position this afternoon to watch the news, but suddenly she had to sort out such an outline of the report, and she had to work overtime again tonight.

But she remained unfazed on her face, and agreed without hesitation.

"Any other commands?"

Liang Lu shifted his gaze from the computer screen to look at her, "By the way, remember to copy Lin Xi." ”

Lin Xi and Lindsey had similar pronunciations, Yan Yi had already thought of it, but still confirmed it again, "Are you talking about Lindsey?"

"Oh yes, her Chinese name is Lin Xi, three points of water and one hope Xi. ”

*

It is almost the end of the year, which means that the first semester of graduate school is about to end in less than a month. After the last pre-exam focus class this week, the final two-week exam weekend will be ushered in.

But Lin Xi still deserted when she took a finance class today, because Ye Zeyan finally replied to her text message last Friday, saying that she would return to Nancheng on Wednesday.

It was December 23rd.

She endured half of the class without replying in order to be reserved, but her mind had already flown away and she missed a lot of important points. Later, I couldn't help it, but I still texted the man back.

[Shall I invite you to dinner that Thursday?]

[Pitiful expression.] 】

Ye Zeyan is not a person who responds in seconds, and Lin Xi has often missed his messages by mistake recently, and he is not a person who responds to text messages in seconds.

I regret that I didn't stay up until after class and then come back, and she waited for the text message in the second half of the class, and she didn't listen to a few words. After class, I had to pull Han Yuan and a few people to borrow her to copy notes.

Even a well-connected finance professor noticed that this girl who liked to sit in the back row of the classroom at the beginning of the school year, suddenly worked hard after midterm, and moved to the second and third rows in the wrong state of class today. came over and teased, "Lin Xi, you are seriously distracted in class today." ”

After the professor left, Han Yuan continued, "yes, why aren't you in the state today?"

When Han Yuan asked, Lin Xi was writing hard, and his hand couldn't help but open the mobile phone that was placed downward.

She continued to copy the notes, didn't look up, and said casually, "Hey, you know the mood of waiting for the text message, torment." ”

"Yo yo yo yo are in love?" Han Yuan's gossip radar turned on.

At this time, Lin Xi no longer spoke, and wanted to quickly copy the notes and go home.

Liu Shuo, who reconciled with Han Yuan, glanced sideways at his roommate Wang Yubin, and raised his eyebrows meaningfully. Wang Yubin glared back, with an expression of "what to do with me".

"Load, keep loading. Liu Shuo said coldly.

Lin Xi thought he was talking about himself, and looked up puzzled. Liu Shuo took the opportunity to ask, "When did you fall in love, inside and outside the school?"

Lin Xi was slightly stunned, put away his textbooks, and sighed lightly, "You boys are also so gossipy?"

Everyone walked out of the classroom together, Lin Xi finally couldn't defeat Han Yuan's gossip heart, and he was so embarrassed that he had the posture of letting go, and Ai Ai said, "I haven't caught it yet, that is, there is someone I like." ”

That is, there are people who don't know why they like it very much.
