Chapter 30: Sudden Opportunity
A moment later, Mi Cai sent me to Robben's house, and today I will settle down in this small attic of ten square meters.
Still dizzy, I went straight to bed, and then groggy.
In the half-open and half-closed eyes, I saw Mi Cai who was busy, she found an electric kettle, boiled hot water, went downstairs, and after a while, bought milk powder and honey, and made me a glass of honey milk.
"Don't sleep yet, drink the milk."
I didn't want to move at all, and said vaguely, "You put it over there first, and I'll drink it later." ”
"It'll be cold later."
I struggled to sit up from the bed, and Mi Cai handed me the milk, and sat down in the chair opposite me and looked at me.
The milk that had just been brewed was very hot, and I drank it very slowly, and Mi Cai urged me again: "You drink it quickly, I'll clean up and leave after drinking." ”
"There's nothing to clean up, if you're in a hurry, let's go first."
"Wash the cup, pour you another cup of hot water, and keep you thirsty to drink." Mi Cai said.
"Why are you so nice to me?" I said and took a big sip of milk, but it was so hot that I couldn't swallow it.
Mi Cai was surprised and asked, "I just made you a glass of milk, is this good for you?" ”
Oh, yes! Mi Cai just made me a glass of milk, why do I think she is very good?
After a long time, I realized that I had been lonely for too long, and I had not been accompanied by a woman for too long, and every time I drank too much wine, I just vomited by myself, and then vomited after vomiting, and when I couldn't vomit, I covered my head and fell asleep, where has a woman ever soaked a glass of milk and gave it to me.
Finally drank a glass of milk, Mi Cai washed the cup and poured me another glass of boiled water, but this time she didn't urge me to drink, put it on the table next to the bed and said, "Put this glass of water away, drink it when you are thirsty." ”
"Oh."
Mi Cai picked up her handbag and was about to leave, when she asked me as if she remembered something, "Do you remember what you are going to do tomorrow?" ”
"Wake up on time and go to work." I replied without thinking.
Mi Cai frowned: "That's not right. ”
"What's that?"
"Think about it yourself, I'll go first." Mi Cai walked outside the house as she spoke, closed the door, and disappeared from my sight in an instant, but left me with doubts.
Lighting a cigarette, I sat on the bed, thought about it for a long time and didn't think about what I needed to do tomorrow in addition to work, so I simply snuffed out the cigarette butt, covered the quilt and fell asleep again......
……
When I woke up the next day, Robben was still asleep, and the nature of his work meant that he had to live his life upside down by night and day, and yesterday he seemed to have come back until the early hours of the morning.
After a brief wash, I found a bowl of noodles in a box in the corner, soaked it for breakfast, and hurried downstairs to wait for the bus to the company.
Robben's accommodation was in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was swaying all the time, so for an hour on the road, I kept thinking about what Mi Cai reminded me of yesterday when she left.
Finally more sober in the morning, remembering that Mi Cai cooperated with me in a play last night, of course she won't help me for no reason, there must be some quid pro quo between us, along this line of thought, suddenly it dawned on me, I have to help her buy insecticide powder to sprinkle in the bathroom today.
I was afraid that I would forget, so I set a schedule reminder on my phone, and then I felt safe.
After arriving at the company, before I had time to make myself a cup of tea, I was summoned by Chen Jingming, the manager of our planning department.
When I came to Chen Jingming's office, he seemed to be in a good mood and beckoned me to sit down.
"Manager, you summoned me early in the morning, did I mess up something again?" I subconsciously asked, Chen Jingming has been working for two years, and he basically criticized me.
Chen Jingming smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, this time there is an important task entrusted to you." ”
"What task?"
"This time, GUCCI has set up a cabinet in our department store, so that our Polaroid department store has officially stepped into the ranks of top department stores, and the company wants to take advantage of this opportunity to carry out a comprehensive marketing campaign, and strive to attract more international first-line brands to cooperate with our department store."
"Manager, what do you mean, I'm in charge of planning this event?" I asked in shock.
Chen Jingming nodded, and said very strictly: "That's right, this is a rare opportunity for you, you know, now the traditional retail industry is fiercely competitive, and has been strongly impacted by online shopping over the years, the living environment is very bad, take the high-end route, brand management is the foundation of our Polaroid Department Store survival in this industry, we must attract as many international first-line brands as possible to operate on site, strengthen the brand advantage of our Polaroid Department Store, so this event is the embodiment of our company's core values, The decision-makers above take it very seriously, and I hope you will take on this responsibility. ”
"Manager, it's not unclear how many catties and taels I have, you should hand over such a big event to Fang Yuan."
"Zhaoyang, opportunities don't come often, Fang Yuan's position as the deputy manager of the planning department is already a sure thing, because he has contributed enough to the company and the planning department, others don't gossip, what about you Zhaoyang? I want to promote you to be the head of the planning and copywriting team, I'm afraid that others will gossip about it...... You know what I mean? ”
Of course, I understand what Chen Jingming meant, he wants to use this event to justifiably make me the leader of the planning and copywriting team, which is indeed a rare opportunity for me in the past few years.
I was silent for a long time and finally asked, "When will the preparations for this event begin?" ”
"GUCCI and our department store entered the occasion at the same time to start preparations, by the way, GUCCI is going to shoot the opening poster on the 15th of this month, you and the graphic model to confirm whether there is a schedule, this thing must not travel cuò, understand?" Chen Jingming's expression became more and more stern as he spoke.
"Understood, I'll call her right away to confirm."
Chen Jingming nodded and said, "Take advantage of this opportunity, not everyone can be lucky enough to encounter it." ”
"Thank you manager for the opportunity." I said it sincerely.
After coming out of Chen Jingming's office, I immediately called Le Yao and told her the date of shooting the promotional poster, and she confirmed that there was no problem, and my hanging heart finally fell, I should really do something for my life, so I must firmly grasp this opportunity!
This is the first time that I have been eager to improve and look forward to a qualitative change in my life after more than two years of not wanting to make progress.
……
After a busy day, it was already past seven o'clock when I came back to my senses, and the various lights on the street began to brighten the city's night again.
Sitting on the swaying bus, my mind was full of the marketing of the upcoming event, Chen Jingming was right, this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, and I couldn't afford to be careless.
For a long time, the car was still swaying on the road, and I took out my phone from my pocket to check the time, but found that the phone was automatically turned off because it ran out of power.
Looking up at the electronic clock on the bus, it was already half past eight at night.
Eight thirty! I suddenly remembered that I had to go to buy insecticide powder for Mi Cai after work today, and solve the cockroaches that she hated for her!
I remember in the morning, I was afraid that I would forget and set a schedule reminder on my phone, but the phone happened to run out of battery, which was enough to ruin my character and make Mi Cai completely disgusted with me.
