Chapter 54: Deep Dilemma - Say it, skip the report; Don't say it, don't report it

Jay has been bumpy in his heart since he last heard what his boss Tobias said at that meal. He can't question his boss procedurally, but in good conscience, he always feels uneasy.

After graduating from high school at the age of eighteen, Jay began to work, just started to work in a supermarket, cashier, tallying, receiving, diligent, he saved half a year's money, bought a bracelet for the girl he liked, and was nervous and trembling to give it to her, but she said disgustedly: "What are you thinking?" How could I be with someone like you, who has been living in a store for the rest of my life and has no future? I'm looking for someone who is in a foreign bank or sitting in an office building! "She didn't even accept the gift.

Of course, he will not be so naïve as in the TV series, in grief and indignation, he threw the bracelet into the water, after all, it was so hard to earn money to buy it, this girl doesn't want it, you can keep it and send it to the next girl. However, her words deeply stimulated him: Yes, can I only nest in a store in this world? Foreign bank and office building, these two words, like two road signs in his mind, he opened the newspaper and wanted to find such a job, but when he saw the academic requirements, he didn't even have the courage to apply.

Finally, one day, he saw a job post, which read: Merchandising Specialist, high school degree or above. Oh my God, this is the first time I have seen a high school graduate recruited, and he hurried to apply, and actually received an interview notice.

This was the first time Jay had actually entered an office building, and he was a little nervous and dizzy, and finally found the nineteenth floor of the address, and saw a big sign at the door - an elephant covered with a colorful flying carpet. Jay muttered a little: The newspaper is about a German company, isn't the elephant from Thailand? What's worse is that when he was still interviewing, he couldn't help but ask this question, and asked why the flying carpet was so small, and I didn't know if it was used as a quilt for an elephant or a cushion for an elephant rider? It seems that the size of both uses is not very suitable.

The interviewer was a German who thought he could speak Cantonese, his face was long, he spoke Cantonese, Jay couldn't understand, Jay spoke English, he couldn't understand, but the German obviously knew that the young man who was pointing and painting the company's logo on the door for a long time must be very dissatisfied with the elephant, and he was also very dissatisfied with Jay, although the communication between the two people was very problematic, but in the end both of them understood: ruined on this elephant, because the focus of the whole conversation between the two people was pointing at this elephant. Even at the end, the Germans angrily pointed to the flying carpet on the elephant's back and made a flap of his wings to indicate that Jay could fly away.

Jay, who didn't have any interview opportunities in foreign office buildings, really had a bit of a psychological shadow this time, and for a long time, he didn't even dare to look at the elephants in the zoo. Of course, fortunately, there are no elephants sold in the convenience store, otherwise, I wouldn't even dare to do the current job.

Day after day for more than half a year, one day at work, Jay actually saw the girl who refused him again, holding a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in, the girl leaned on the man angrily, saying that she wanted to drink, I don't know which one to choose, the man said arrogantly: "Then bring a bottle of what you like!" The girl couldn't believe it, happily hugged a lot of it, and when she looked up to pay, she looked at Jay: "Ah, you're still working here?" The man in the suit asked, "You know?" "Oh, classmate." The girl hastened to answer.

"Why did your classmates get mixed up so badly?" Even though they had already walked out the door before the man in the suit asked, Jay heard a heartbroken voice.

"Isn't it just a bottle like a drink? It's not a brand-name bag, what's there to be arrogant? "Yes, what's there to be arrogant about? Because people do foreign business and wear suits!

No, I still have to find a job working in an office building! Jay's grief and indignation were ignited again. He began to flip through the newspaper again. Finally, I saw an advertisement for a merchandiser, saying that he was going to go to the mainland often on business trips and run factories, and the work intensity was high and hard, so a high school degree was enough. He didn't care about the previous ones, he only saw a high school degree, these four words were shining, he followed this light, walked to an office building, entered an office, and talked for a long time with a bearded, serious German who laughed when he wasn't smiling, and laughed very happily, of course, there was an interpreter next to him. Whatever the Germans say, Jay says: OK, OK, nodding sincerely.

The interpreter told him that the general manager had asked him to come to work tomorrow, and he jumped up for joy, eager to kiss the two of them. He was so excited that he walked a little staggeringly, turned around, only to find that at the door, there was actually an elephant, and, covered, a flying carpet.

He felt his eyes darken, turned around, and reconfirmed: Can I really come to work here tomorrow?

When he got an affirmative reply, he stroked the elephant and said with a smile, "Hey, elephant, we're meeting again!" ”

This is 18 years, from barely speaking a single sentence of English, to now shuttling with foreigners in major toy factories in China, from knowing nothing about the toy manufacturing industry to now knowing the design process of toy research and development. The bearded German general manager who recruited him was later Henrich, and Jay watched him go from the prime of life to retirement, and then to come out again. Jay's feelings for Wenbo are ordinary commuting to and from work, three meals a day?

So, how could he hear Tobias's words and be indifferent? In the past, he didn't pay much attention to the mainland business, because Tobias said that the German headquarters thought that the time had not come, and the trading company Baodeli that took the initiative to come to the door ten years ago, just took some foreign trade tail goods from them here, and did some wholesale export to domestic sales, without goals, and there was no expectation, and the relationship with Baodeli has always been maintained by Jay, and he never thought much about it before, but in Shanghai, he was very stimulated when he saw how Aimee did morality: it turned out that in the mainland market, It is possible to cultivate the market and win people's hearts in the way of brand management. He felt that what Aimee said made him happy, excited, and yearning.

Tobias told him that he would not let Aimee make Wenbo products anyway, and he was very entangled: he believed that Aimee's approach was what it should be, but Baodeli, after all, had been cooperating with Wenbo Hong Kong for ten years, and it was impossible to give up! However, wouldn't it be more inappropriate to let Tobias hide from his boss like this? When he saw Henrich appear in Hong Kong, he greeted him, and several times he wanted to secretly go up and talk about the mainland, but he didn't dare to speak.

Yes, let's say, it's a skip-the-line report; Don't say it, if you don't report it, how to handle it properly?
