After two busy weeks, at the end of November, the proposal for Orange Time was finally done, and Lin Su made an appointment to go to Orange Time, and I was upset at the thought of seeing Cao Hui again.

After adding WeChat, Cao Hui pulled me into a group of classmates, and greeted me every once in a while, revealing a deep desire to chat with me and get close. I always respond perfunctorily, like an emotionless autoresponder, trying my best to talk to death.

If you are someone else, you will either be annoyed, or you will be bored and quit, but the other party is Cao Hui, and his perception of the world is different, which is really a headache.

When I went to Orange, I gave Lin Su a preventive shot in advance, and asked her to take me with me this time no matter what, and Lin Su naturally agreed.

The time for the proposal was in the afternoon, and it was still Lin Jiangnan who picked us up downstairs.

"Can't you schedule it in the morning?" I asked him in a low voice.

He spread his hands, and I nodded. Also, he is not a leader, and he has the final say on the time of leadership.

"Then he didn't book a restaurant or anything today, did he?"

"Not really."

I was a little relieved, but I couldn't help but sigh in annoyance.

"Don't worry, I've got you covered." He patted himself and then opened the door to the conference room and invited us in. I wanted to say, "How can you get around?" But Fu Yun was fiddling with the projector in the conference room, so I didn't say anything more.

When Fu Yun saw Lin Jiangnan coming in, she ran over and handed him the remote control: "How can you get this?" ”

"Haven't learned it yet?" Lin Jiangnan said as he pressed the button to lower the curtain. Fu Yun pushed her glasses and smiled shyly, "Stupid." ”

Lin Jiangnan laughed: "That's no way." Fu Yun stood beside Lin Jiangnan with a smile, carefully poked her head to watch him operate, her head approached Lin Jiangnan infinitely, but she cautiously left a line of distance. Lin Jiangnan moved to the side, returned the remote control to Fu Yun, and looked at her without speaking, the meaning of that expression was probably that simple.

Fu Yun pushed her glasses, took the remote control, and said coquettishly: "Remember, can't you really remember it this time?" ”

"Go and call Mr. Cao." Lin Jiangnan said to Fu Yun, and then turned around to talk to me, and saw that I was hugging my shoulders and smiling at the excitement, and his words choked back. "What's that look on your face?" He asked me.

"Huh?" I looked fake and naïve.

He looked at me again, narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't be foolish, it's a colleague." ”

"Huh? This argument is interesting! What am I thinking? ”

He wanted to speak again and again, and finally simply gave up the topic and stretched out his hand: "Copy me the proposal PPT!" ”

I'm so happy to see him like this.

But as Cao Hui pushed the door in, my good mood came to an abrupt end.

The leaders and directors of Orange Time who participated in the proposal meeting this time were not only Cao Hui, but also the general manager and sales director, so Cao Hui's arrogance of 'I am the leader and guide' was obviously reduced a lot.

The proposal is divided into two parts, first Lin Su explained our combing of Jiangmei Group and Orange Time, and then summarized the cases of homogeneous enterprises, and then deduced our understanding of Orange Time and the direction of image packaging. When I got here, I was the one to introduce the design. I am not as profound as Lin Su said, it is all real dry goods, and they are all professional things, so what I said was smooth.

Halfway through the conversation, Lin Su's phone vibrate, she said embarrassed and left the conference room temporarily, my eyes followed her away, speculating from her expression who made the call, and secretly screamed in my heart, thinking that God might want to play with me!

Lin Su came back soon, but I was giving a speech, and it was inconvenient to ask her anything, but I could see her eyes constantly throwing at me, and every time I threw it, my heart was cold.

After I finished speaking, the general manager talked to the other directors about their opinions, asked some questions, and left, leaving the rest to Cao Hui, which is within his scope of responsibility. After sending off the general manager, Cao Hui's annoying bureaucratic style immediately returned to its place, filling the entire conference room, making me not even gasp for breath.

"Mr. Cao, look ......" Lin Xu said halfway through his words, waiting for Cao Hui to take the words himself. Cao Hui didn't answer Lin Xu's words, and pointed at Lin Jiangnan, "Show me the whole plan again, slow down." ”

Lin Su and I looked at each other, and she frowned at me, then pointed to her phone. I thought, took out my mobile phone and took a look, there was a message sent by Lin Xu: "The company has something, Cheng asked me to go back as soon as possible, and said that you should communicate with Orange Time about the follow-up." ”

"No! Take me, be sure to take me!! "I crackled a string of words, using an exclamation point to symbolize a heartfelt cry.

"I try." Lin Su sent me an OK emoji.

We waited patiently for Cao Hui to finish reading the plan, and Lin Xu said to Cao Hui: "Mr. Cao, just now our Mr. Cheng called to say that he was in a bit of a hurry, and our proposal was completed today, so I will go back and wait for your good news." Mr. Cheng also said that I would like to invite you to have a light meal another day, please enjoy it. ”

Lin Su stood up as he spoke, but Cao Hui didn't move, his fingers lightly tapped the table a few times, and said with a slight frown: "That's the case, Su Mi is not an outsider, so I will tell the truth." Among the three companies that compared the draft, I personally think that your proposal is slightly better, but judging from the attitude of the general manager just now, there may be some minor problems in terms of design. I hope that in the next few days, you will make some changes before the official partner is decided, so that I can have a good talk with the general manager. ”

"It's okay, we can come back tomorrow." I answered anxiously.

"But I'm not available tomorrow." Cao Hui raised his eyes to look at me and asked Lin Xu again, "Are you in a hurry?" ”

"Well, I'm still in a hurry, otherwise our President Cheng wouldn't have called me."

"Need both of you to go back?" Cao Hui looked at me and then at Lin Su, "The main problem is to focus on the design, and I can talk to Su Mi here." ”

I quickly said, "We have to go back together." ”

"Really?" Cao Hui stood up with a dry laugh and pointed at Lin Xu, "Then you call Cheng Liren now, and I'll talk to him." I'm going back to Xi'an early tomorrow morning, and it's not good to delay this matter, mainly because it's not good for you. ”

"Oh......" Lin Xu let out a sigh of relief, looked at me in embarrassment, looked at his phone again, and barely squeezed out a smile and said, "That...... In that case, it's okay, then ......"

"Then you can go back first." Cao Hui waved his hand at Lin Xu. Lin Su slowly packed up his things, and looked at me with apologies in his eyes. I sat in my chair and stared blankly at the plan on the computer screen, feeling a fire hidden in my heart. When the fuck is this a stop?

My mobile phone rang again, it was a message from Lin Jiangnan, "If you pretend to be sick and go, what else can he do to you?" ”

"Easy to say." I'll reply to him.

I brushed my sleeves away, of course Cao Hui couldn't do anything to me, and my boss Cheng Liren couldn't spare me. My annual salary is 200,000 yuan, and I usually only pay 70% of my salary, and the rest will not be given to me until the Spring Festival, plus bonuses for some projects and double salary at the end of the year, how can I have 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, I am not rich enough to take 70,000 or 80,000 yuan seriously.

Even if I don't bend my waist for 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, then I still have to consider the market situation of my re-employment after I was angry with the crown, right? In our industry, we don't support the elderly, and we don't support the elderly.

Endure Cao Hui's momentary grievances Compared with these things, my balance is easily tilted to the more realistic side. I persuaded myself that this was in the company after all, and Cao Hui didn't dare to really do anything to me.

"Sumi, come to my office." Cao Hui beckoned me, Lin Jiangnan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Cao Hui, "You guys should get off work when they get there, and go back early on weekends." ”

Lin Jiangnan stopped, I glanced back at him, and he was also looking at me. Fu Yun walked up to him and asked him, "Jiangnan, can you take a ride?" ”

The door to the conference room closed automatically behind me, and I followed behind Cao Hui, full of bad thoughts, and wanted to fly up and kick him down, and then stomp on his back a few times.

Cao Hui entered his office and beckoned me to come in, "Come on, come on, come in and sit." Seeing that he meant to close the door, I held on to the door and coughed twice: "It's still open." Recently I have a bad respiratory tract and am prone to allergies. ”

Cao Hui smiled and approached me a little, "Su Mi, why do I think you seem to be afraid of me." ”

"Nope." I grinned dryly, "I've always been like this, you noble man has forgotten everything." ”

"How could I have forgotten you." Cao Hui sat down on his sofa and nodded to the place next to him to signal me to come over, and I pretended not to see it and looked around, "You're good now, this office is still very magnificent." ”

"Ahem, it's just a part-time job for someone else."

I continued to wander around his room, trying to get as far away from him as possible, looking at the ornaments in his room that I didn't like at all, and complimenting them one by one. Cao Hui echoed me at first, but he could see my intentions, obviously a little displeased, and showed some impatience with my inconvenience.

"You art students are too idealistic." Cao Hui sat on the sofa, looking like a leader reminding his subordinates, "You said that you are also 30 years old, people, you still have to live realistically, especially women." ”

"Am I unrealistic?" I smiled back at him.

"You're still hard-mouthed. Su Mi, you should know that Jiangmei Group's market in the northwest region, although Orange is still a new company, but it has Jiangmei's financial support, and the future will not be too bad. Do you know what it means to have your back against a big tree to enjoy the shade? Today I can give you the image of Orange Time, and tomorrow I can give you the design and execution of development projects. ”

Cao Hui stared at me directly, "Even the Jiangmei Group's publicity project in Beijing, I have the ability to share a part of it with you." With the size of your company, just these things I gave you are enough to eat, and you don't need to take over work from other companies at all, understand? ”

"Understood. Then I thank you for our Mr. Cheng. "I stood still, and there was no wave in my heart. Our company is not my company, even if he gives us a project of 100 million yuan, I only get an annual salary of 200,000 yuan, what does it have to do with me.

Cao Hui smiled and shook his head, "You are still not convinced when you say that you are simple." Su Mi, if you bring such a big business to your Chengmei Design, how can he Cheng Liren not give you a commission? How much is that? Have you thought about it? You can talk to him. Take it a step further, wait for Orange to be on the track here, and in two years you go out to register a company by yourself, and a large amount of publicity costs here are yours! Ever thought about it? ”

I seemed to regard money as dung, and simply said, "I haven't thought about it." Then he turned around and looked at the painting hanging on the wall, which was a painting of Li Kuchan's "Pine Eagle", and the things printed on rice paper were also framed in a mahogany frame, pretending.

Cao Hui stood up and walked up to me, I took two steps back to distance myself from him, and smiled at him: "We art students are very bad at math, so we can't figure it out." I think we put a lot of thought into making the proposal this time, and from my point of view, of course I hope that the draft can have a better result, but there is no need to force it, really. ”

"The opportunities are all at hand, why don't you know how to seize them?" He looked at me with a funny expression, "If you Cheng heard what you just said, you would be angry." ”

I was a little disgusted by his expression and tone, and stepped back, "Mr. Cheng is also a legal businessman, and he has been in this industry for so many years. ”

Cao Hui looked at me and laughed, mocking, disdainful, and laughing dryly and obscenely, which made me tired of it. He wanted to say something and approached me again, but luckily my phone rang just in time, it was an unfamiliar number.

I thought it was a lifesaver, and I wanted to thank him even if it was a scam, so I hurriedly picked it up.

"Hello, are you the owner of Jing UKO886?"

I pursed my lips and smiled, "I am." Can I help you? ”

"Trouble getting out of the car."

"Move the car! Okay, I'll be right here. ”

I hung up the phone and said to Cao Hui: "My car is blocking others, I have to move the car quickly, go first." After saying that, I didn't even say goodbye, just turned around and left quickly.

It was already dark, and the office area outside Cao Hui's office was empty, and I almost trotted out of Orange Time Real Estate as if I was afraid that Cao Hui would catch up, and ran until I reached the elevator room to breathe a sigh of relief.

I took out my mobile phone, found Lin Jiangnan's phone number and dialed it, "Where are you?" ”

"Next to your car."
