Chapter 213: The Temptation of Money
When it comes to business, everyone is back alive.
After all, everyone comes out to work to make money.
And at their age, their position is actually very embarrassing.
Just like Peng Peng, people are nearly middle-aged, and many things have changed.
Many people work overtime all year round and fall into a problem, and now their health is not good, and their energy cannot keep up. Fighting, it is impossible to fight young people, the salary is also high, the position is also high, and most of them hold shares. If you can't stay in this company, it will be difficult to get a suitable position in another company.
Even if you can go back to a big company, so what? If you go up the ladder, after the age of 35, which company will hire such a bad old man? Even if you can be cheeky and rely on your connections, it will be very difficult to do anything other than connections and experience. At most, you have to hang alive and retire in a company.
That's the sadness of Internet companies.
Don't look at it, the money comes quickly, and the promotion is also fast.
But again, when it knocks you out, it's fast.
If you can't take advantage of your youth, try to climb up and try to achieve financial freedom. After you are in your thirties, whether you want to or not, you will be killed by reality.
They were talking, and He Yuan was listening.
After leaving this circle for nearly half a year, this circle has changed a lot.
Although he observes the dynamics of this circle through the circle of friends every day, when he hears the news revealed by their mouths, He Yuan still feels like he has missed a century.
Especially comics, short video business.
When He Yuan left Beijing, it was still a new project of major companies.
As a result, it has only been a long time, and in their mouths, it is about to become a sunset industry.
Although everyone chatted with a disdainful tone in their mouths, He Yuan still felt a trace of heaviness from the atmosphere.
"Okay, okay, drink quickly, empty the cup, let's change the scene!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was low again, the fat man simply stood up, raised his glass, and began to beckon everyone to drink.
Empty the wine glass, the fat man goes to check out, and then beckons everyone to change the scene.
Because of the drinking, everyone couldn't drive, so they simply threw the car aside, called a few Didi, and drove directly towards the clubhouse.
He Yuan went to the club for the first time, to be honest, when he first entered, he thought he had arrived at a KTV with a more luxurious decoration. In fact, the decoration inside is indeed similar to KTV, except for the uniformed waiters, who are beautiful and handsome, and the others He Yuan didn't see anything.
The fat man is obviously an old customer here, and after arriving at the place, the other party didn't wait for the fat man to answer, and directly brought a group of people into the box. After entering the box, the fat man clapped his hands and said, "When you come to my field, you can play as much as you want, whether you are polite to me!"
The others had apparently been with the fat man for a long time, and they were all there to make a fuss.
"Come on, are you going to play mahjong in a while?" someone asked.
"Fight, fight, what to fight, report first. The fat man's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said.
"I won't play with you anymore, I lost tens of thousands of dollars last time I fought with you. ”
"Eh, didn't I treat you to a treat and let you play casually? The fat man said.
"You TM won more than 200,000 yuan, please have enough at one time!"
"So this time I'll please. ”
"No, no, no, every time I play cards with you, I win, and my wallet can't stand it. ”
"Okay, I haven't counted how much you have a month, it's all small money for you. Don't talk nonsense, after you're done in a while, we'll stay up all night!"
He Yuan just sat there, watching them make a mess.
During this period, the fat man turned around and asked him: "Lao He, are you here to play?"
"No need, a few of you are enough, I won't participate. He Yuan waved his hand.
"Well, speaking of which, we haven't played with you before, let's play together at night. The fat man continued.
"You lose tens of thousands of tens of thousands of dollars one by one, where can I bear this. He Yuan said angrily.
When he was in Beijing before, He Yuan knew that their group of people had a lot of fun.
Usually, when they get together, everyone is relatively restrained, but once they go on a business trip, they start to go wild.
Especially in Shanghai, in Hangzhou, there are a few local snakes leading the way, and there are ...... A few times, He Yuan originally planned to chat with them about business and contact them at night, but when he arrived at the door of their room, he found that there was no one.
During this period, they were also called He Yuan, but when He Yuan heard it, they were basically tens of thousands of consumption, and they couldn't afford to play at all, so they directly refused.
This is where He Yuan admires Lao Zhang, obviously He Yuan also knows that when a person has reached a certain point, if he wants to go up further, he has to develop his network, and to develop his network, you have to play with others.
But on the contrary, if you want to play with others, you have to ask for money.
It's like saying this treat, you come over as a guest, and someone else entertains you, and you get the whole set down, and you go down and say, "You have to have 10,000 yuan smaller, right?" If there are a little more people, 20,000 or 30,000, 30,000 or 40,000 you have to have, right?
He Yuan's monthly salary is only how much, just play once, and half a month's salary is gone. If you want to play like you do today, a month's salary will be gone...... He just plays every day, and he doesn't have to keep his living expenses?
Lao Zhang is amazing, no matter what kind of field, he can rub in, and after rubbing, he can still be cheeky and don't have to come back. He Yuan can't do it, he is too thin-skinned to do this kind of thing.
Thick-skinned here, it's not a derogatory term, you have to do business, you have to be connected, many times you have to be thick-skinned, you have to be shameless. A person like He Yuan who is too cheeky, unless he has good conditions, he will not be able to achieve anything in this life.
After talking for a while, the manager called the girls in.
A group of people stood in a row in the field, and they all looked good.
He Yuan is the first time to come to this kind of venue, not to mention the club, the KTV he has been to before is that kind of mass sales KTV. In the past, he was still very strange why many old drivers around him said that they could go to KTV to order people, but he had never met it himself. When you ask others, they are also very strange, saying that the streets are all over the place, and if you go to the field, the manager will talk to you directly...... But He Yuan himself really hasn't encountered it once.
He didn't know what level this field was, but the girls looked pretty good.
In the winter, they are very "cool" one by one, and many of them are wearing that kind of V-neck skirt, which exposes a large area of snow white on the top, and the skirt below is slit, revealing long snow-white legs. In terms of appearance, after makeup, it is also six points up, and a few can score seven or eight points.
The fat man talked to the manager, who turned and went out, and after a while called a few Yanmars in. This time, even He Yuan picked his eyes and couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
Close contact with this kind of Yanma, the sense of impact is still relatively strong.
I have to say that their physique is indeed different from that of Asians, and they have a very good figure, even if they are dressed up so simply, they all reveal an exotic style, which makes He Yuan's heartbeat slightly faster.
A group of dressed girls stood in a row there, at your disposal, which had a big impact on He Yuan, who had studied the core values of socialism for nearly 30 years.
He couldn't help but want to take a glass of water to drink, only to find out that this pit daddy's club didn't even have time to get a glass of water.
He Yuan was a little embarrassed here, and the other old drivers were familiar with the way and began to pick girls. He Yuan doesn't pretend anymore, it's all in this kind of place, you still pretend to be serious there, and your friends don't have to do it.
So he observed from the sidelines, saw how others ordered, and pretended to be an old driver, and picked a pleasing one.
After picking people, everyone should sing and sing, and play games.
There are girls to accompany them, and everyone is more open, and a few men play games there, and from time to time take the opportunity of the game to eat tofu. But they didn't do anything too much, after all, they were all relatively high-quality people, and they didn't get it on the spot.
He Yuan was still relatively restrained, although his face was red and his heart was beating faster when he was teased, he finally adhered to his principles and did not make a mistake...... This can't be a mistake, if this is a mistake, it will be 404 directly.
When the field was over, the fat man went to check out, and two of them came out a little late.
He Yuan originally thought that they had gone to the toilet, but when he saw the strange expressions on the faces of the others, He Yuan reacted, yes, don't wait, I guess they don't have to go back tonight.
After that, the fat man asked the rest of the people to play mahjong, and He Yuan shirked his daughter-in-law to check the room, but politely refused. Although the fat man regretted it, he still said that he would make an appointment next time he had a chance, and then he took a taxi and left.
He Yuan first took a taxi back to the previous hotel, and then called a substitute driver to send him to the hotel where he stayed.
After finally returning to the hotel, He Yuan lay directly on the bed, looking at the empty room, his mind was blank.
After seeing the fat man's life, He Yuan was greatly impacted.
When he was doing business before, He Yuan knew that some people in the circle were very open.
Generally speaking, the industry is divided into large circles and small circles.
In the big circle, they are basically peers and industry insiders, and the main thing is to get to know each other and facilitate some business exchanges.
In the case of a small circle, it is the core group of each class.
Newcomers at the bottom, middle management at major companies, and executives at the top.
The newcomers don't have much to say, basically they eat, sing, and occasionally go out on a trip together.
When I was in the middle level, I played more openly, basically starting from a KTV club and talking about things at the wine table.
It's really at the level of an executive, but it's back to basics and doesn't play those bells and whistles.
He Yuan was in the company before, there were some executives, and it was only when he talked about things that he was light. casually made a phone call and made an appointment to go out for a cup of tea, and a few months later, He Yuan knew that their company had been sold for hundreds of millions.
People who have not experienced it don't know how the real bigwigs talk about business.
Although He Yuan previously held the title of executive in many companies, in the entire circle, he is actually just a middle-level manager.
Like the fat people, they are still in the class of relying on business to eat, and as for the group at the top, they are all playing capital operations.
I have to say it, though.
Even if it's just a middle-level life, it's a big temptation for He Yuan.
I have been working hard for so many years, and I have always been clean...... Well, to put it bluntly, it's timid.
It is precisely because it is not easy to be in the upper position, so He Yuan has always been very cautious, for fear of making a mistake and being caught by others, and then he can't get along directly in the industry - in the workplace, the most important thing is the person who stabs in the back, you never know whose financial path you will block if you are not careful.
He Yuan felt that if he had come into contact with fat people a few years earlier, most of them would have been wasted by now.
What do men ask for when they come out to work?
It's nothing more than that one wealth, power, and women.
When a person has experienced the charm of money, will he still settle down and honestly take a salary of thousands of dollars a month?
Thinking like this, He Yuan suddenly felt a chill in the back of his neck.
In all fairness, He Yuan felt that he would definitely not be able to do it.
If you are honest and go to work step by step, you can't achieve such a life, then what will He Yuan do......
After a while, He Yuan let out a long breath.
You can't think about it, you can't think about it, and some things are thought about deeply, which will make people feel frightened.
He rolled over and pulled his phone out of his pocket, ready to charge it.
As soon as I plugged it in, I found that there were a few messages in my hand.
He Yuan clicked on it and found that it was all sent by Tian Rui, and there were several of them.
He was eating with the fat man before, and he was drinking again, and he hadn't paid attention to his phone.
Well, and when he was in the clubhouse, the girls around him kept hinting at him.
Although He Yuan listened to the price and felt that it was not expensive, after he struggled for a long time, he still couldn't help but make no mistake.
However, in order to resist those temptations, He Yuan was so distracted that he didn't even notice the message coming from his mobile phone - anyway, he didn't need to pay, why did he pay so much attention to his mobile phone.
He Yuan glanced at the news, all about tourism.
The addresses sent by Tian Rui are basically by the sea.
It's not Xiamen, it's Sanya, anyway, it's a place with a sea.
In addition, Tian Rui also checked the air tickets and hotel accommodation.
In fact, if you want to travel, it is best to book a few days in advance. More than two weeks in advance, and less than two days in advance, is the most expensive, generally about two weeks in advance, air tickets and hotels will have a relatively high discount.
Tian Rui picked a few flights there, as well as hotel accommodation, and basically planned the itinerary.
He Yuan took a look, the grade was too low, and he directly swiped his hand and changed the ordinary hotel into a five-star hotel by the sea. The connecting flight in the early morning was changed to a direct flight at noon.
After such an operation, He Yuan's heart suddenly felt much more comfortable.
Although he can't spend as much money as a fat man, he can still do a little extravagance once in a while - what is the reason for making money, isn't earning money just to make his small life more comfortable?
