Chapter 1 People in the rivers and lakes
People in the rivers and lakes are easy to live and live, but life is not easy.
If life is really like all kinds of cups, then all the props of Gumi Cheng Rensheng should be: the baby bottle when he was a child, the Coke bottle when he was young, the wine bottle after participating in the work, the tea cup at the peak of his career, and finally the infusion bottle for the middle-aged and elderly.
Zhang He has joined the work now, but the wine bottle has not had time to be handed down, and now the class is about to end.
In fact, the name Zhang He is barely passable, not to mention the domineering appearance of looking for death, but at least it gives people a sense of vitality and vitality.
The surname "Zhang" is the third largest surname in China, and the word "He" naturally represents the famous, and Zhang He is not only not a big man, but also not famous at all, just like many recent college graduates, after walking out of school, he is full of a kind of confusion about the society and the future, so many people's sense of confusion adds up, it has become a chaotic tide of job hunting, like chasing ducks on the shelves, Zhang He went with the flow in it, and came to the bustling city in the west of China. I found a health care product company and started a sales job.
said that it is a health care product company, and now everyone actually understands that as soon as the TV is turned on, a random small station in it can use a full half an hour of advertising time to say that straw is a gold bar:
"Kidney silver deer antler syrup, 30 days, let you restore your delicate and delicate appearance, 50 days, ensure that you lose 10 kilograms of weight, 90 days, 10 years younger is no longer a dream......"
Every time he sees the company's advertising slogan, Zhang He feels that the general direction of the company's propaganda ideas is problematic, the company's products should enter the overseas market, the focus is locked on the US Congress, and the advertising slogan can be appropriately added on the original basis: "250 days, liberate all mankind, unify the global village ......"
Of course, his idea is very commendable, and he makes bold and scientific assumptions on the basis of a strong logical surname, but can life be assumed?
So the real situation now is that Zhang He is sitting at his desk, looking at a table on the table in a daze.
This is the company's sales performance table every month, each salesman's performance this month is clearly marked on it, the last column of the table is printed with the name of "Zhang He", and the Arabic numerals in the performance column show that Zhang He's performance this month is an unusually eye-catching "egg".
Today is the 89th day he came to the company, according to the company's regulations, the newcomer will be regularized after three months of probation, and the basic salary of 800 yuan per month during the probation period will be regularized, and the bottom line of the regularization is "more than 1000 yuan per month", otherwise he will leave.
In fact, Zhang He has broken the company's highest record, because in the past three months, he has taken three "eggs" in a row, which belongs to the batch of objects that need to be cleaned up without creating benefits and eating dry rice in vain.
But this is not the most important point, the most important thing is that tomorrow is the day to pay the rent, if you pay the rent on time, the landlady's face is like a peach blossom blooming on the mountain, if you are in arrears, her face will have a fight with Bao Qingtian's nickname.
Zhang He has been delaying for two months, and Bao Heizi comes to urge him every day, ordering him not to pay the rent of 1,000 yuan for two months on time within three days, not only will he not return the rental deposit, but he will also kick Zhang He out.
So, now this job is still lost for the time being......
When he was in a trance, a piercing phone ringing next door woke Zhang He up, only to see a big-eyed beauty holding the phone and exclaiming: "Zhang He, phone!" ”
Zhang He got up slowly, first tidied up the messy desk, and then took a sip of the water cup slowly, and then slowly walked over to answer the phone, as if he was the leader of the company, not some rookie egg.
For Zhang He, Jiang Yao has always admired it, Zhang He doesn't seem to care about anything, everything is slow and methodical, for people who do sales, this is really not a good habit.
Jiang Yao was angry, but she never hated Zhang He.
Zhang He is very different from other colleagues in this company, according to her observation, Zhang He usually speaks very little, and when he has nothing to do, he likes to sit in a chair and look at the desk in a daze, neither communicating with other colleagues, nor seeing him usually make any personal phone calls, in other words, in Jiang Yao's feelings, Zhang He is a very lonely person, a kind of loneliness that seems to be born with it.
Just like now, Zhang He, who answered the phone, still had no expression: "Hello, who is it?" Mr. Li, oh good, I'll come over right away. ”
After hanging up the phone, looking at Zhang He, who was still walking slowly to the deputy general office, Jiang Yao's psychology swelled with an inexplicable emotion, she knew that after Zhang He went in and came out, I was afraid that he would have to leave the company forever.
In this bustling metropolis, depressing high-rise buildings, fast-paced work and life, in today's indifferent people's feelings, the slightest bit of the same thing between people that can't even be talked about by fate will make people feel lost once they are not there.
Closing the door of the vice president's office, Zhang He sat opposite Mr. Li in a regular manner, looking at Mr. Li still without expression.
Mr. Li is Chinese New Year's Eve today, and he is only a few years older than Zhang He, but he is young and fat, with a bulging belly, a fat head and big ears, abstract but not specific hair, and a few sparse ones hanging on the top of his head, fortunately, he is wearing a brand-name shirt and tie all over his body, so he is still a standard image of a successful person.
Of course, a deep look at him will link him to the image of the business director of a certain insurance company.
"It's been three months, Xiao Zhang!" Mr. Li's tone was extremely heavy, like a teacher teaching students Chunchun, "When you first joined the company, I was very optimistic about you, I know that you are an excellent young man, you have worked hard in the past three months, your usual words and deeds, your persistence, and your dedication, I see it in my eyes, but according to the company's regulations, I ......"
Although Zhang He has been expressionless, this does not mean that he is a fool, he can hear that Mr. Li's previous words are foreshadowing, only when the foreshadowing is done, the most critical ** can be unfolded.
“…… Sorry, Xiao Zhang, you are welcome to visit the company often in the future! Mr. Li sighed regretfully, stood up and stretched out his right hand to shake hands and say goodbye, ** just a matter of words.
But Zhang He still sat still, and he didn't stretch out his hand, which made Mr. Li a little surprised, because he didn't know that the real ** had just begun.
"Mr. Li, Yao Wenfang and I entered the company at the same time, she only had a performance of 200 yuan in the first month, and the performance in the other two months was zero, according to the company's regulations, she should also be out, but why am I the only one out now?"
Zhang He was always prepared for this attack, and Mr. Li was about to answer, but Zhang He didn't give him any chance to refute at all, he continued: "I remember that when I first joined the company, Mr. Li, you and Yao Wenfang went to Fuye Group to talk about a list. ”
Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, Zhang He inexplicably came up with this sentence The lethality is too great, because what Zhang He said is the truth, he and Yao Wenfang did go to talk about such a list that day, and they negotiated it, and finally had dinner with the people of Fuye Group.
Yao Wenfang can be regarded as a flower in this branch, tall, fashionable, surname, sweet voice can numb a group of people, there are really many people in the company who covet her, and Mr. Li is one of them.
As the old saying goes, women don't get drunk, men don't have a chance, Yao Wenfang was drunk that night, so Mr. Li had a great opportunity, and he was very familiar with that routine: "I'll send you home when you're drunk, but I don't know where your family lives, then okay, I'll go to the hotel to open a room for you, you're too drunk, I won't leave tonight to stay and take care of you......"
Mr. Li raised his head abruptly, and the gaze that looked at Zhang He no longer had the slightest affinity before, but became cold in an instant, and even the temperature in the office seemed to drop by dozens of degrees.
But what he thought was a sharp gaze failed to achieve the desired effect, because Zhang He's gaze was very deep, so deep that it could hold anything into it, and he himself was still expressionless, and Mr. Li felt a kind of fear inexplicably.
Zhang He said lightly: "Mr. Li, in terms of time, Yao Wenfang has been with you for almost three months. ”
Hearing this, Mr. Li's expression relaxed, and he had regained his composure: "Xiao Zhang, I don't understand what you said. ”
Zhang He ignored him, but continued to throw bombs: "The place where you and Yao Wenfang opened a room is Room 1208 on the 12th floor of Jubao Restaurant on HSBC Road, and the time is 22:13 on the evening of March 11. ”
Mr. Li's face finally changed, and even the time and place were exactly the same, it seems that the truth is always the truth: if you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do.
Zhang He only cared about himself and said, not caring about his feelings at all: "Mr. Li, since you can give her a chance, why can't you give me a chance?" If you fire me now, if I accidentally tell my wife about the good things you have done with Yao Wenfang in the past three months, then the net will be broken, and it will not be good for everyone, I also know that Mr. Li and his wife have been married for six years and have a good relationship, and they have a lovely daughter......"
The sweat had already densely wrapped around Li's head in a big circle, and his face became as pale as a dead man, Mr. Li wiped his forehead and took a long breath: "What do you want, you say." ”
Zhang He said calmly: "I have already said it, Mr. Li will give me a chance." ”
Mr. Li stared at Zhang He for half a minute before speaking: "It's that simple? ”
Zhang He nodded and said, "It's that simple!" ”
Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief, sat down again, and educated Zhang He seriously: "Xiao Zhang, I really didn't misunderstand you, your efforts will pay off sooner or later, the manager position of the sales department 8 is vacant, are you interested, think about it?" ”
Zhang He got up lazily: "I'm not interested, Mr. Li, I'll go back to do things!" ”
Returning to the office hall, Jiang Yao looked at Zhang He, who was still expressionless, and was at a loss for a while, she wanted to go up to comfort Zhang He for a few words but felt that it was not appropriate, so Zhang He swaggered back to his desk under the various complicated eyes of other colleagues in a room mixed with ridicule and sympathy, and sat down steadily, neither greeting everyone, nor cleaning up and leaving.
Jiang Yao walked over and asked cautiously, "Zhang He, what is Mr. Li looking for you?" ”
Of course, this is nonsense, but the form still has to go.
Zhang He picked up the cup again and took a long sip of water slowly, then turned his head and replied seriously: "Mr. Li, he thinks that my performance in the past three months is excellent, and he thinks that I am very good, so he encouraged me and asked me to work harder in the future, I am very moved." ”
With a "bang", the glasses in the office shattered to the ground.
