04. It's not a problem
The meeting was boring and lengthy, and Cao Hui gushed about how powerful their head office was, how powerful their big boss Jiang was, and how good his relationship with Jiang was.
I listened drowsily.
Lin Xu quietly hung up the two phones under the table, and gradually showed some anxious looks. After the two of us exchanged a few glances, I shook my spirits and grabbed a gap in Cao Hui's drinking water to block his tirade, "Mr. Cao, I don't know what part of the content you want us to do if you want to find a cooperative design company here?" Is it the packaging of the project, or is it the development company? ”
"This ......," Cao Hui leaned back in his chair and looked at me with a smile, "Our company has just arrived in Beijing, and it is still in a preparatory stage, and various departments are negotiating relevant cooperation. Of course, I am responsible for the marketing and publicity, and I personally believe in Su Mi's ability, but the company still requires a process of comparison and competition. ”
He looked at me, hoping I understood what he meant.
I naturally heard it very clearly, so I turned my head to look at Lin Su, and Lin Su immediately said, "This is nature." Mr. Cao, do you think this is good, we also have a preliminary understanding of the general situation of your company, and you will ask people to send us the content that needs to be compared, including time and specific requirements. In addition, I also need a list of the content of the formal cooperation to facilitate the quotation, can you see it? ”
"Yes, you can." Cao Hui nodded, "Xiaolin, you remember." ”
Lin Jiangnan's side had also been made drowsy by Cao Hui's tirade, and when he heard the words, he slowly straightened up from the back of the chair, and his fingers crackled on the keyboard a few times.
Cao Hui was very dissatisfied, and couldn't help but snort, but said to me: "They are young people now, they are too selfish, how can they be like us at that time!" At that time, the leader said what was and what he was asked to do. Isn't it, Sumi? ”
I laughed. The heart said: It's a fart.
Lin Jiangnan looked at the computer screen expressionlessly, his fingers still jumping on the keyboard, as if he hadn't heard what Cao Hui said. I stole a glance at his screen and watched as sentence by word jumped into the document: what nonsense!
Heroes, see the same!
Lin Xu closed the notebook and stood up, he couldn't help but want to leave, and stretched out his hand and walked to Cao Hui, "Thank you Mr. Cao, I am very much looking forward to the opportunity to cooperate with Orange Time." I'll contact Kobayashi first if there's anything. ”
"It's okay to let Su Mi contact me directly, we are old classmates, and it's easy to talk." Cao Hui looked at me and expected me to take the initiative to add contact information with him, but unfortunately I just nodded perfunctorily. There was no way, Cao Hui had to open his WeChat first, call up the QR code and hand it to me, "You scan me." I also organized a group of our classmates from that class, and I will add you to it later. ”
The QR code was handed over, and I had to add it. His WeChat name is 'A Glance at the Mountains', and I suddenly wondered if this person was from the same class as me, how did he feel more like my father's classmate?
I didn't do anything, I just added Lin Jiangnan and Fu Yun's WeChat together. In this way, Lin Su also began to add one by one, and everyone stewed each other with a spoonful. I also set up a group, "The WeChat group is still very convenient, if there is anything in the group, everyone knows about it, and the direct communication efficiency is high." ”
Cao Hui looked at me with a little disappointment, as if he blamed me for not understanding his good intentions. Lin Xu stepped forward again to shake hands with Cao Hui, "Thank you, Mr. Cao, then we will go back first today.
"Huh? No, no, it's almost six o'clock, and I booked a private room. Cao Hui got up and stopped us, "Let's eat together and then leave, Su Mi and I are old classmates, I haven't seen each other for seven or eight years!" ”
Lin Su and I glanced at each other and saw firmness in each other's eyes. Lin Xu smiled politely: "Mr. Cao really doesn't have to be polite, I have something to do when I go back, next time, next time we will invite you." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." I hurriedly chimed in, "Something's wrong." ”
Cao Hui glanced at me, "I can't force you Lin to do something, if you also leave, it will be too shameless for me, right?" He waved his hand, looking like he was scolding Fang Xuan, "It's just a meal, and you can't delay anything." If you are really embarrassed, I will say it to Mr. Cheng. ”
Damn it. I cursed in my heart.
Lin Su covered his mouth and smiled, "Ahem, look at what you said." I'm really in trouble, or we should have invited you to dinner today. ”
As soon as I heard this, I knew that Lin Su was planning to cut off his tail to survive.
Sure enough, Lin Su looked at me with blank eyes, "Or ...... Sumi, look at you......"
I was already struggling hopelessly, and in a panic, I saw Lin Jiangnan and Fu Yun who were packing up their things, and said to Cao Hui: "That's okay, anyway, it's time for dinner, everyone has worked hard, let's eat together." I'm in for a treat. ”
Fu Yun pushed her glasses without any sense of existence, noncommittal. Lin Jiangnan looked at me a little surprised, I saw that his lips moved as if he wanted to speak, for fear that he would spit out a 'no' word, so he leaned over and quietly poked his waist with a finger, he trembled, and became more and more surprised.
With a smile on my face, I stared at him deadly, "Go ahead!" Let's go together! You've all worked hard, too. ”
Cao Hui seemed to want to say something, but I couldn't give him a chance, so I put on my coat and scarf at double speed, and followed Lin Jiangnan out of the conference room with a guard, "My car is downstairs, you can take my car in a while." ”
"No, you don't." Lin Jiangnan said.
I almost fell into despair when I heard this, but he immediately added, "The restaurant is downstairs." ”
I followed Lin Jiangnan to his cubicle. His desktop is really clean, the documents are neatly placed, and there is nothing clutter on the table except for a water cup, which is very different from the desktops of the male designers in our group.
Lin Jiangnan put the computer away, looked at me and glanced in the direction of Cao Hui's office from a distance, and asked me in a low voice, "Are you afraid of him?" ”
"Not really." I shook my head and denied.
Cao Hui and I are from the same university, but not in the same department. He chased me for three years in college, and the chase was not very enthusiastic, but everyone who chased me was well known, and the chase was embarrassing enough. The history of his pursuit is like a stinking and long season series, which annoys me a lot.
I really don't like him at all. Not at all.
The last time I saw him was after graduating from college. When he heard that my boyfriend Yao Feng had returned to his hometown, he came to confess to me, and I rejected him as usual. He looked at the sunset with a little sadness that day, said that he would prove to me that he had the power to make me happy, and then turned away.
At that time, Xu Yijing also witnessed the whole process at the scene, and both of us had no waves.
I'm not afraid of him, I don't know how to deal with him from the first day I met him, and I feel that he and I don't live in a logical world. I don't know what he's going to say next, I don't know what he's going to do next, he's always been able to easily take me to the top of embarrassment.
Listening to his words, the flesh is numb for eight hours, and it will take about six Guo Degang cross talks to resolve it.
Having said that, meeting Cao Hui when I came to Orange today was an accident from my point of view, but from his point of view, it was obviously not. It gave me a bit of a bad premonition.
Well, I'll admit it, I'm still a little scared of him.
Because he's now my prospective client. I couldn't say no with a cold face like I did in college, and then I shook my head and left.
The next meal was spent in the noise of Cao Hui's self-narration of his struggle in the past few years. I resolutely refused to drink on the grounds of driving, and most of the time I was eating with my head down, like an unprofessional comedian, and I served Cao Hui perfunctorily after a pause. It's true? Not easy! ’。
Lin Jiangnan and Fu Yun were even more silent than me, and there was no other word than greeting the waiter throughout the whole process. Fu Yun really didn't want to interject, and she didn't know how to interject, but Lin Jiangnan...... I think he is more like a spectator, like a literary and artistic worker observing life, with relish.
Aciba.
I also admire Cao Hui very much, I can talk like this for two hours by myself; And I also admired myself, in order not to communicate with Cao Hui more, I ate non-stop for two hours.
It's very supportive, it's terrible.
Cao Hui said: "Su Mi, you are still so true temperament, so it's very good. Don't follow the example of others who have nothing to do with dieting and weight loss, it's not good for your health, I think it's good for you to look a little meaty. ”
Really, if there was no law, I would have killed him!
I tried my best to finish the meal early, and it was already past eight o'clock when I left the restaurant. Cao Hui asked me where I lived, and I replied that I drove the car, and then enthusiastically asked where Fu Yun lived and if she needed to take my car back.
Fu Yun stood beside Lin Jiangnan, "It's okay, I'll just take Jiangnan's car." ”
Lin Jiangnan said to Fu Yun: "My car is broken." With that, he looked at me with a smile on his face. I didn't react for a while, until I realized that he had been looking at me for a little too long, and seemed to have a deep meaning, that my mind turned around and hurriedly said, "Oh, oh, it's just right, I'll send you back." ”
"Huh? Drop by? Fu Yun pushed her glasses and asked me with a blank look.
"Drop by, especially drop-off." I was convincing and asked her, "Where do you live?" ”
"Peony Garden."
When I heard this, I couldn't help but praise it: "I'll just say it!" Definitely drop by! ”
Cao Hui cleared his throat vigorously on the side at this time, and we all turned to look at him, he was a little displeased, took a puff of the cigarette in his hand, and asked Lin Jiangnan and Fu Yun: "Are you all done with your hands?" Can you get off work? ”
Fu Yun pushed her glasses again, turned her head to look at Lin Jiangnan, and Lin Jiangnan said very sincerely: "It's nothing today." ”
Ho, that's simple.
Seeing that Cao Hui seemed to have something to spit out, I hurriedly said to him: "Thank you Mr. Cao today, it is said that we should have invited you to spend money." ”
"How do you speak, Sumi." Cao Hui said solemnly: "Are we just an ordinary partnership? We're friends! It's an old schoolmate! Friendship with the window. ”
"Mmmm, but classmates are classmates, cooperation is cooperation, and business is business." I said with a smile, stepping back as I spoke, waving to him, "Then let's go first, let's talk about something in the group." ”
I took Lin Jiangnan and Fu Yun away, but it seems that we are just one company.
When I got to my car, Lin Jiangnan walked to the back row and opened the door, but I didn't expect Fu Yun to follow to the back row. I sat in the cab and locked it and looked at the two people in the back seat through the rearview mirror, "Where are you going?" ”
"You can leave me at the Peony Garden subway station, thank you, sister." Fu Yun said.
"Heh, you're welcome." I laughed dryly.
I opened the navigation and first located the Peony Garden subway station, then started the car, the stereo played automatically, and the song of the New Pants Band floated out again, and the lyrics were exactly what I wanted:
Kick to death, kick to death......
Fu Yun obviously couldn't appreciate this song, I saw her frowning in the rearview mirror, pushed her glasses, moved to Lin Jiangnan's side, and asked in a low voice, "What kind of song is this?" "It sounds like a question, but it's more like a disgusted complaint.
"Dragon Tiger Man Dan." Lin Jiangnan replied to her.
I heard it, and I was surprised. This is a 2006 album, and I thought the post-90s generation wouldn't listen to this kind of song anymore. I looked at him in the rearview mirror, and his face was blue on the phone screen, and suddenly he looked up, so we had a look in the rearview mirror, and I smiled at him, "It's an old song." ”
He looked down at his phone again and said, "It's okay to listen to, what does it matter if you're old or not." ”
