Chapter 189: What is Go?
The elevator stopped on the fifth floor, and several employees from the business department walked out. I saw that the kid named Yanzheng also stepped out of the elevator with him, and also greeted a female employee who passed by the elevator door with a smile.
Look at his appearance, he actually came to work!
I feel very strange that this kid has such a high attainment in Go, and he can make money with this ability. Why don't you use your talent and come here to be a small salesman?
I arrived at the office on the seventh floor, and as soon as I sat down, the secretary Zhang Lanlan came over with a large pile of pending documents for me to review. She first smiled and congratulated me on my upcoming groom, and then went to make me a cup of tea.
I flipped through a few volumes of documents, thought for a while, and then picked up the phone and dialed the office of Shen Aimin, the manager of the personnel department: "Hey? Lao Shen? I'm Tang Qian, has the business department recruited a group of new employees recently? ”
"Yes, three were officially recruited on Monday, what instructions does Mr. Tang have?"
"Show me the materials of these three new employees!"
"Okay, I'll get it right away."
Putting down the phone, I realized that I was already very interested in the young man named Yanzheng. A person's cultivation in Go has the level of a national player, and it is impossible to achieve it without more than ten years of hard work. If such a talent does not make a name for himself in the international arena, at least he will not be an unknown person in China. The strange thing is that not only do I not know anything about his name, but even the Kobayashi girl, who has been mixing in the Go world for many years, is very unfamiliar with him. This makes people feel very abnormal, and what is even more abnormal is that he actually works as a marketing salesman in my company, isn't this overkill?
After a while, Manager Shen sent the materials of the three new employees over. I asked casually a few questions, and told him to put down the materials and go back to work first.
Then I found the material file of the speech and politics, opened it and read it.
The content is very simple: Yan Zheng, male, Han nationality. Born on September 19, 1981 in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, he just graduated from B University last year. I studied philosophy and got very good grades. After graduation, he worked in two companies, but neither of them lasted more than half a year.
I flipped it and thought to myself, why would a college student who studies philosophy, and graduated from the most famous university in the country, come to our company and be willing to be an ordinary salesman? With his academic qualifications, he can find a job that is more suitable for him. What is the origin of this kid surnamed Yan?
I couldn't see anything unusual or anything else on the material, so I left it on the table and didn't look at it. I decided to have time to get to know this man, and his extraordinary chess skills alone were worth getting to know him.
But...... Now it's time to deal with the mountain of work in front of you! I smiled wryly and picked up another document for approval......
About an hour and a half later, my phone rang. I took it out and looked at it, and I couldn't help but smile. This call came from my sister who is studying in Xiamen University, and I guess the day after tomorrow, the school should be closed? Xiao Ying came back just in time for my wedding!
I picked up the phone and smiled, "Xiaoying, when will you come back?" Your brother is getting married soon! ”
"Hee-hee! Guaranteed to arrive before you get married! Hey, the groom, what do you need me to give you when you get married? ”
"Come on! How much money do you have to buy something? Besides, your living expenses are not from your brother and me? It's better to save you! ”
"Please, brother! You don't have to spend money to get something you give! Married such a big event, I, as a sister, have to express my congratulations! ”
I said with relief: "Xiao Ying...... You've really grown up, brother, I'm really happy! You can come to my brother's wedding is the best gift for my brother, with this heart, my brother is already very satisfied! ”
"Alas! Not again! I can't stand it! Okay, okay, I'll fly back tomorrow, and I'm going to see your new house! ”
"Good! I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow! ”
"Hmmm! By the way, brother, Sister Xu, she ...... All right? Will she be attending your wedding? ”
I was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course, your sister Xu and your sister-in-law are the best friends, and she will definitely come." Maybe...... She's still a bridesmaid! ”
"Really? Elder brother...... There is a saying that I said, don't you don't like to listen, I always think that Sister Xu likes you. Are you really ...... Indifferent to her? I really want her to come...... Be my sister-in-law. ”
I was silent for a moment and sighed: "Xiaoying, there are many things in life, not what you want, you will know when you fall in love in the future." Okay, if you have anything to say tomorrow, I'm busy now! ”
"Oh, then I'll call my parents, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
After putting away my phone, I sighed and continued to work.
It was almost noon when the work at hand was finally over. I stood up and stretched, walked to the window, and looked at the factory building not far downstairs. I pulled out my phone again and dialed the familiar number.
The phone rang for a long time before it got through, and Xu Shu's voice lowered his throat, obviously nervous but slightly coquettish: "What are you doing?" ”
I said, "Xu Shu, I want to see you once, are you free today?" ”
"Your wife is here with me right now! Do you think I'm free? Is! You're about to be the groom's officer, so you can't control yourself? I can tell you, this is an extraordinary time, and you should accompany your wife wholeheartedly! Don't be found out by her, and none of us will be able to be human beings at that time. ”
I sweat! Xu Shu thought I was so bold, and I wanted to have an affair with her before I got married!
I cried and laughed and said, "Xu Shu, you misunderstood, I'm not...... Alas! I just have something to discuss with you! ”
"Come on! I don't know you yet? Gluttonous! You can rest down for the next two days, and your wife will be pestering you during your honeymoon! Hee-hee! I won't tell you, Jingjing is still waiting for me. Oh yes, I've agreed to be your wife's bridesmaid, have you found the best man over there? I'm not a handsome guy, I won't say yes! ”
I said angrily: "Xu Shu! I really have something to tell you! ”
"No, no, no! You haven't remembered the lesson of the previous two days, have you? I don't want to make a mistake at a time like this! Tang Qian, don't worry, I will always be your person, and our days will still grow in the future, don't worry about it for a while. Obedient! Yes! ”
I'm down! Speechless!
Xu Shu was probably afraid that Jingjing would find out, so he said, "Let's talk about it!" He hurriedly closed the line. I had to sigh and put down the phone, thinking about it carefully, what I want to discuss with Xu Shu is the same sooner or later. Since it's inconvenient now, then ...... Let's talk about it later!
Seeing that it was time for lunch, I turned around and left the office building to go to the company cafeteria to eat.
At this time, the canteen was the most crowded moment, although I was the vice president of the company, I never had the privilege of cutting in line to eat. I finally came out after the meal, and the cafeteria was already full of people!
I accidentally saw Yan Zheng also sitting in a corner dining, and there was a very beautiful female employee sitting next to him. The seat opposite him was vacant, and I walked over with an iron rice plate in my hand.
Walking up to them, I smiled and said, "I'm sorry! Can I sit here and eat? ”
Yan Zheng raised his head and glanced at me, and said, "Of course you can!" Please! ”
The female employee next to him was startled when she saw me, and stood up and said, "Mr. Tang! I smiled and nodded, put down the plate and sat down in front of them, pulling out the bamboo chopsticks once and saying to the female staff, "Don't be nervous, I eat in the cafeteria." Come on, let's eat together! ”
The female employee sat down, but still a little unnatural.
Yan Zheng didn't show any nervousness, he looked at me while eating, and suddenly smiled: "You are Mr. Tang?" A legend in the industry, I've only been here for a few days, and I've heard a lot about you! ”
I laughed, "Oh? What did you say about me? ”
Yan Zheng said: "The Yejian fragrant tea drink that is popular all over the world was developed by you yourself?" Asking the big star Xu Shu to be the spokesperson is really a big deal! Mr. Tang is still so young, it's really hard to imagine that there will be such a big achievement, it's really worth learning from our juniors! ”
I laughed, thinking to myself that this kid is quite good at sycophants, it seems that being a salesman will definitely not be like I was back then. I started to eat, and after two bites, I said, "You're a new employee who just came in, right?" In which department? ”
Yan Zheng said: "Yes! My name is Yanzheng! I have only been in the company for less than a week, and now I am working as a salesperson in the business department! ”
I nodded, and was about to ask again, when the female employee next to him interjected: "Mr. Tang, you are very capable of speaking and politics." Within two days of work, my performance was about to catch up with me. I'm an old employee of the company! ”
I looked at Yan Zheng and said, "Oh? ”
Yan Zheng was very modest, and said with a smile: "Actually, the seniors helped me, I am a new employee, I don't know anything about business, how can there be any performance!" ”
I took a closer look, and when I saw that the female employee looked at Yanzheng, her eyes flowed, as if she was affectionate, and I immediately understood.
Alas! People are handsome, there is really no way! When I was a salesman, how could there be any "seniors" to help me!
After eating for a while, I asked, "Xiaoyan, are you a college graduate?" ”
"Yes!"
"Do you have any hobbies?"
At this time, Yanzheng stopped his chopsticks and began to look at me seriously. I knew he sensed my unusual attention to him, a little confused.
I smiled and continued, "Actually, we've met before, at the Kobayashi Go Gym. However, you may not be impressed with me! ”
"Kobayashi Go Hall?" Yan Zheng suddenly smiled and said: "I said how to look at Mr. Tang is a little familiar, as soon as you say it, I remembered, that day outside the chess hall, I took a picture with you, hehe!" ”
I said, "Your surname is good!" How much money did you win that day when you played chess with Miss Kobayashi? ”
Yan Zheng smiled: "That day...... Hehe! In short, Miss Kobayashi lost miserably, and almost tore me apart without moving. That woman, so fierce! ”
I think about the arrogant appearance of Miss Xiaolin, and think about the crazy scene after she was hit by words and politics, and I can't help but laugh.
Yan Zheng asked: "Is Mr. Tang also a Go enthusiast?" ”
I nodded, "That's it, but my level stinks." By the way, is there time for noon? If you can, how about a game of coaching with me? ”
Yan Zheng smiled, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth. "No problem! But I don't dare to guide chess, I'll have a discussion with Mr. Tang! ”
Then the beautiful female employee who had been listening for a long time suddenly asked timidly: "Mr. Tang, talk about politics, Go...... What is it? ”
Yan Zheng and I each slipped from our seats to the floor, and then struggled to get up again. looked at each other and had to smile bitterly!
