Chapter Ninety-One: The Company with Undercurrents
At 8:10 a.m., a continuous rain outside the window enveloped the city, and the gloomy rain and fog turned the surrounding high-rise buildings into a hazy silhouette. In the open office area of Top Advertising, the boys and girls in the design department have already started their intense work, Xiao Nan is wearing radiation glasses and her legs are folded in her chair, carefully looking through the information Yang Feng just gave her one by one.
It's a company's product literature, with lots of photos and handwritten text, as well as some flyers and posters that I did before. "You mean to leave this brochure to me completely?" Xiao Nan asked Yang Feng beside him while looking down at the information in his hand.
"Yes, the other party is my old customer, this time they want to catch the foreign trade exhibition, the time is relatively tight, the design requirements are also very high, I just fancy your design level to come to you. This time, the other party's print run is relatively large, and the profit is very objective, what is your business commission......" Yang Feng leaned back against the partition of the computer desk and put his hands in his trouser pockets, a pair of small eyes were very restless, scanning back and forth between Xiao Nan's delicate lips, undulating breasts and curvy thighs, but his mouth was serious.
"This is not good...... Xiao Nan suddenly glanced up at Yang Feng, and Yang Feng quickly lowered his gaze to the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"Although the company doesn't have explicit regulations, I think it's a little inappropriate to skip the arrangement of the design department and take over your business directly......" Xiao Nan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and hooked the bangs that blocked his forehead to the back of his ear with his little finger, Yang Feng's gaze was invisibly pulled by Xiao Nan's little finger between his eyebrows, and he saw her small ears and slender white neck all the way, and felt a burst of heat in his heart.
"Well, it turns out that you were worried that Manager Xu would interfere, you don't have to worry about such a thing, you just came here and didn't know the rules of our company. In fact, in our company, the main responsibility of the design manager is not to assign work to the design department, but to liaise and coordinate between the customer, the design department, the business department, the distribution company and the printing plant. Xu Hui will only assign you work when she sees that individual designers have no work at hand for the time being, and under normal circumstances, our business department skips the design department and goes directly to the designer......"
"What? Is this the case? Senior, can you tell me in detail...... "A company has a rule, Xiao Nan is not without reason, it is not unworthy to offend people because of "fouls", especially in this kind of small company, the explicit regulations are just a few words, but all kinds of "unspoken rules" accumulated for a long time must not be easily violated.
"That's fine, it's just not convenient right now, and I'll go to the customer again soon." Yang Feng took the information from Xiao Nan's hand and put it back in the folder. "Otherwise, let's have a meal together at noon, and I'll talk to you about it. β
"Okay, I also have a lot of things to ask my seniors for. I'll treat you at noon!"
"Well, no problem, give me your mobile phone number, I'll contact you at noon......"
Yang Feng shook his head with the information and left, Xiao Nan turned on the computer and entered the company's QQ group, and as soon as he logged in, a private chat box popped up, it was Li Tong.
"This Yang Feng is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you better be careful. β
"What's wrong? What's wrong with this man?"
"Didn't you see that he was staring at you all the time?"
"I was looking at the information just now, and I didn't pay attention...... What's this man's misdeeds? How dare he do it to the girls in the company?"
"That's really not, this person is really strong in business, but I don't know how he is when I see the girl's two eyes...... Anyway, if you want to be alone with him, you should be careful. β
Xiao Nan also felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it, but a married man like Yang Feng likes to look at girls directly, which is not a strange thing. "Man...... That's it, besides, he looks like he's wearing such a thick coat......"
"Look, you don't care at all, you can do it yourself, don't say I didn't warn you, anyway, the girls in the company hate him very much, and they just put up with him for the sake of business commissions. β
"He hasn't done anything ......"
"He's going to do something more, that's going to pay it back! His obscene eyes alone are enough to make people vomit! Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, you can do it yourself, silly girl!"
Li Tong was busy with her, and soon Xu Hui sent a DM list to Xiao Nan, asking her to complete it in the morning, Xiao Nan was relatively tight in time, so she didn't dare to delay and hurry into work.
Although there are no high requirements in the design aesthetics, the key is that it is too cumbersome, and this DM single text is all typed, and there is no half of the picture, just let you find it on the Internet, hundreds of products are the same on the Internet to find the right photos, cutouts, design layouts...... Xiao Nan sat in front of the computer and remained motionless all morning, did not drink water, and did not go to the toilet, so he just finished his work before twelve o'clock and sent it to Xu Hui.
"I'm so tired...... Xiao Nan took off her radiation glasses and stretched her waist beautifully, only then did she feel a little tired, her right wrist holding the mouse was sore, especially her waist and lower abdomen were slightly sore, in short, she was very unhappy.
"I haven't been like this before, it seems that the amount of exercise recently is too small, when the knee injury is healed, hurry up and exercise to ......" Xiao Nan thought a little depressed.
"Xiao Cheng, let's go to dinner together?" I don't know when Wang Dan came back and stood behind Li Tong. "Let Li Tong take us to explore the food in the small alley. β
"It's really unfortunate that I made an appointment with Yang Feng to eat together. Xiao Nan turned off the computer, picked up the coat from the back of the chair, and put it on his body. "What!" Yang Feng ......" The expression on Wang Dan's face was a little surprised.
"What's wrong?"
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Then Li Tong and I will go first......"
Wang Dan and Li Tong left, and his attitude just now made Xiao Nan a little inexplicable. Xiao Nan put on her coat, tied a scarf, and put a small bag on her back, and was just about to go out when her mobile phone rang. "Hey, I'm Yang Feng, I'm waiting for you downstairs in the company, the black modern Elantra, just on the side of the road. β
"Okay, I'll be right there...... However, the elevator is very crowded at this time, so please wait for me for a few more minutes. β
Yang Feng has been staring at the steps of the Twin Towers office building through the hazy door glass, because it is the rush hour at noon, groups of office workers with various umbrellas swarm out, a girl with slender legs stands on the steps, covers the top of her head with one hand and looks at the side of the road, and then lowers her head through the misty rain and fog and quickly runs down the steps, splashing a string of water under her feet.
The girl ran to Yang Feng's car door, first wiped the water droplets on the car window with her hand and looked inside, it was Xiao Nan's beautiful little face, and then she pulled the car door and got in.
"Damn, the rain is actually heavier than in the morning...... Xiao Nan took off the hood of the windbreaker on her head, the bangs on her forehead were wet from the rain and messily stuck to her face, she quickly combed the messy hair in front of her forehead with her hands that only showed eight fingertips, and smiled embarrassedly.
"Where are we going to eat?" Yang Feng asked.
"Where do I know, I rarely come to this area, if only Li Tong was here, she knows everything delicious. β
"Then I'll just find a place. β
"Hmm......" Xiao Nan fixed himself with his seat belt and shook the water droplets on his clothes. "Whatever you want, as long as it's not too high-end, I haven't received my salary this month, and we can......'t afford to pay for it if it's too expensive."
Yang Feng turned his head to look at Xiao Nan's cheeks that were still beaded with water, smiled, didn't say anything, stepped on the accelerator and got on the road. He led Xiao Nan to find a small and inconspicuous restaurant, and asked for a private room to sit down in a secluded place. The decoration of this store is average, but fortunately, it is clean and tidy, and the environment is elegant.
"I'm the east, you're a guest, you can order food. Xiao Nan took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Yang Feng, Yang Feng was not polite, ordered two meat, two vegetarian and two bowls of rice, and the store sent another soup. Xiao Nan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this guy didn't take the opportunity to slaughter herself, otherwise with her current economic situation, I'm afraid there is a danger of bankruptcy.
The service of this shop is still good, the food came up quickly, as soon as the waiter left, Yang Feng stood up and closed the door of the private room, and after sitting down, he went straight to the topic and talked to Xiao Nan about the company.
Yang Feng talked while eating, and talked to Xiao Nan for more than ten minutes, Xiao Nan slowly figured out the general situation of Top Advertising, she only now knew that this seemingly inconspicuous little advertising company, actually built its own printing factory in the suburbs outside the Third Ring Road, with a second-hand Heidelberg four-color printing press and an old-fashioned Roland monochrome printing press, the printing factory workers alone have twenty or thirty people, and the boss is not Mr. Xue and Gao Yang, the manager of the business department with a small number of shares, because it took too much money to buy a printing press that year, Lao Xue and Lao Gao Li had to pull a few business partners into the shares, so that the company's shareholders went from two to five.
And these five shareholders are not completely working together, but there is cooperation and struggle, of course, everyone is an old man, fighting but not breaking, and things on face are still passable. It's just that after a long time, several bosses have placed their own people in various positions, and the employees in the company will inevitably have factional struggles, which is why some people did not show up when the newcomer welcome party.
"So...... Isn't Manager Xu a member of Mr. Xue's faction?" Xiao Nan put down his chopsticks and asked.
"Well, she's a relative of another boss. In fact, the company looks like five shareholders, in fact, there are two major factions, Mr. Xue and Lao Gao are one faction, there are two bosses are one faction, the strength of these two factions is not much different, and there is also a small shareholder, the shares are a little more than Lao Gao, but less than others, he currently seems to be more independent, when several shareholders have disagreements, he often joins one side according to his own judgment, so that he has become a pivotal role in the company, both parties have to win him over, this Manager Xu is his relative, so although Xu Hui is a little horizontal in the company, even Mr. Xue and Lao Gao dare not easily offend her, as for our employees in front of her, we still endure itβ¦β¦β
"So that's the case......" Xiao Nan nodded lightly, the ghost knows why this Xu Hui always looks at herself unpleasantly, it's better to stay away from a character with a background like her, can't we afford to provoke and hide?
"By the way, Yang Feng, you...... Who is it?" Xiao Nan squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Feng with a serious face: "I always feel that you tell me these things...... There must be some purpose, right?
"Haha......" Yang Feng laughed dryly: "Who do you think I look like?"
Xiao Nan frowned and looked Yang Feng up and down, shook his head and said, "How can I see this!" I just came to the company, but I think you ...... Is it Manager Gao's over there?"
Yang Feng stretched out a thumbs up to Xiao Nan, and Xiao Nan immediately smiled brightly like a small flower in the sun.
