Chapter 6 Going to Beijing for the First Time
A few minutes after nine o'clock on Monday morning, Yinhua sent an offer letter email as scheduled.
The text is a congratulatory statement, and the attachment lists the salary and benefits of the internship period and after the regularization, and explains what materials need to be prepared before reporting one by one, and there is no difference between the words and the verbal promise on that day.
Even if he knew that he had been hired just after the interview, the moment he saw the offer, Yin Yi still couldn't hide the smile on his face, obviously he was exhausted and had no way out, who would have thought that he could still see another village, this feeling of survival in a desperate situation almost earned Yin Yi's tears.
Not long after receiving the email, Yinhua's personnel sent a request to be added as a friend through the phone number, Yin Yi clicked through, and was soon pulled into an intern WeChat group.
Yin Yi read the announcement and said that before starting the internship, all new employees were required to go to the Beijing headquarters for a three-day training.
Seeing this news, Yin Yi is still very excited, he has been to many places in the past few years, but he has never been to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Maybe until now, he didn't know what going to so many places brought him, but he always believed that people who have seen different stars will definitely have a more gorgeous sea of stars in their eyes than others.
By the time Yin Yi, Ling Zixuan and Xu Zhe took the train to Beijing, it had been two weeks after receiving the offer, during which time it had snowed in Wuhan, and it was almost a day and a night.
Thinking that Wuhan is so cold, wouldn't it be even colder in Beijing, which is located in the north? In order to keep out the cold, Yin Yi and the three of them made special preparations before they went.
It was 5:40 a.m. when the train arrived at Beijing West Railway Station, and the three of them did not immediately rush to the hotel they had booked, but were waiting for a girl. The girl's name is Meng Yutong, who was also newly recruited by Yinhua, and she is also from the Wuhan branch.
In the interval between waiting for Meng Yutong, the three of them first went to the automatic ticket vending machine to buy subway tickets, and what made Yin Yi feel the difference was that the ticket vending machine in Beijing only accepted cash and did not support mobile phone payment. Yin Yi didn't bring a penny of cash with him, but fortunately, Xu Zhe had the foresight and deliberately exchanged a few hundred yuan in cash before coming.
Although Wuhan is not as prosperous as Beijing, it is really much more convenient than Beijing in terms of transportation, whether it is a bus or a subway, it supports scanning the code to take the bus, not to mention shopping malls and restaurants, it can be called a veritable cashless city, and you can play all over Wuhan with your mobile phone.
didn't wait many minutes, and the train that Meng Yutong was taking also arrived at the station. The three of them had never seen Meng Yutong, and they didn't know what she looked like, thinking that they were all from the Wuhan branch, and they would all be colleagues who would work together in the future, so they made an appointment to go over together on WeChat.
The three of them stood not far from the entrance of the subway and chatted with each other, and suddenly a girl with long hair and a shawl walked over, "Excuse me, are you going to Yinhua to participate in training?"
Yin Yi turned his head and met Meng Yutong's somewhat timid eyes, "Are you Meng Yutong?"
Meng Yutong nodded, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting." After speaking, he also bowed down to the three of them and apologized.
Meng Yutong was carrying a Harajuku college student backpack, carrying a plastic bag in each hand, clear and bright, and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses.
Judging from the tone of the chat language on WeChat and the emoji packets posted, Yin Yi thought that Meng Yutong was a big girl, but when I saw it today, I didn't expect it to be a quiet girl.
"It didn't take a few minutes, and now there are about three and a half hours before the training starts, so we should rush to the hotel to wash up first, and then it should be too late to go to the company. Ling Zixuan said, and walked towards the entrance of the subway, except for him dragging a suitcase, the others only carried a schoolbag.
"Then you go in first, and I'll buy a ticket. Meng Yutong looked left and right, looking for an automatic ticket machine.
"No, I bought them all. Xu Zhe took out a subway ticket from his pocket and gave one to Meng Yutong.
"Thank you!" Meng Yutong took the subway ticket with a smile, followed Yin Yi and the three of them through the security check, and took the elevator to the subway door.
The subway has not yet come, and there are already many people waiting outside the yellow line, and there is a steady stream of people getting off the elevator. Most of the people who took the subway had just gotten off the train, and they were in a hurry and scattered to all corners of Beijing.
After getting on the subway, the four of them stood around a vertical handrail in the middle. Xu Zhe poked his head out of the window and looked out of the subway, "Are you all coming to Beijing for the first time?"
"I'm here for the first time. Ling Zixuan looked Xu Zhe up and down, "Listening to the tone of your voice, it seems that you have been here before?"
"When I was still in elementary school, my parents worked in Beijing, so I spent most of my winter and summer vacations in Beijing, and when I was idle, I went to Peking University, Tsinghua University, the Summer Palace and so on. ”
The surprise covered up the look of envy on Ling Zixuan's face, "Since you have been in Beijing before, then if I want to settle down here, I have to rely on you to bother more." ”
"I'm still familiar with Fangshan District, but I'm not very familiar with Haidian District. Xu Zhe looked embarrassed, "Besides, it was many years ago, Beijing has developed so fast, everything has long been wrong, I just have the heart to help you, and I will feel weak in the future." ”
"Before I came, I checked the rental information within an hour from the vicinity of Yinhua, and even the rent of the housing with a very poor environment is more expensive than that of Wuhan, I roughly calculated, I have been interning for a few months, plus the round-trip expenses that the school has to go back to, before I became a regular, I had to take it in by myself for almost 10,000 yuan. ”
"It's hard to find a good job, it's supposed to be a happy thing, why do you have to worry about it all the time. Yin Yi smiled and comforted Ling Zixuan, "Or you will also go back to Wuhan, and after working for a year or two, you will save some money, accumulate good work experience, and then go to the first-tier cities to break through." In this way, there will not be so many worries, and I think it should not be difficult to return to Wuhan before turning positive. ”
Although Ling Zixuan agreed with Yin Yi's suggestion, he still had a trace of unwillingness in his heart, "I want to use the training to observe and observe for the past two days, and if I really can't stay, I will apply to go back to Wuhan." ”
"Did the three of you know each other before?" Meng Yutong, who had never spoken, looked at Yin Yi and the three of them with a puzzled expression, "I see that your words and deeds are very reckless, and it doesn't look like you just met." ”
"You have a sharp eye, and the three of us have known each other for a long time. Yin Yi cast an appreciative look at Meng Yutong, "Not only have the three of us known each other for a long time, but we are also from the same school and the same class, Xu Zhe and I are still in the same dormitory, and Ling Zixuan is in the dormitory next door to us." ”
Meng Yutong sighed sincerely, "Yinhua only recruited four people in Wuhan this year, but I didn't expect that three of them are from the same school and the same class, you three are really excellent!"
"The two of them are really good, and I was lucky enough to meet a very friendly technical interviewer who got in. In the face of Meng Yutong's praise, Xu Zhe couldn't hide his shame, "Speaking of excellence, you are really excellent, a girl will be interested in programming technology, it really refreshes my perception of you girls." ”
"I applied for the test, so I didn't have to write so much code, and we will all be colleagues in the future, and I asked the three gods for a lot of advice. ”
The three of us are also new to the workplace, and we don't know anything about the company's operating mechanism, so we can only say that if we encounter problems in the future, we will take care of each other and help each other. Before Yin Yi's words fell, the National Library Station had arrived.
After a few people came out of the subway, the sky was gray, looking back, the lights on both sides of the street were still dim, and at the end of the road, the sky was leaking out, and at a glance, I knew that today would be a sunny day.
Pedestrians are in a hurry, all wearing padded jackets and hats, but there is no trace of winter in the surroundings, but it is like an early summer morning. While several people were puzzled, a cold wind blew, like a knife cutting their faces, and their ears began to ache from the cold.
Is this the Beijing that has fascinated countless people? Yin Yi stood in the cold wind, his heart boiling.
