Extra: Welcome to Beijing

Ruby Lin went to Beijing for the summer vacation.

Thanks to his sister, he found an internship at a design studio.

All summer, my mind was full of "Welcome to Beijing".

On the subway, on TV, on the radio, the single is looping.

So, when I was taking a shower, when I was cutting out pictures, and when I was, I always hummed this song inadvertently.

Thanks to her sister, Ruby Lin watched three tennis matches and a one-day track and field competition.

The tennis match was the most worthwhile, and I saw Li Na, Serena Williams and Federer.

Athletics is also worth it, after all, it is held in the Bird's Nest.

The day before the closing ceremony, I also participated in a Coca-Cola landing event at the World Trade Center, and I happened to meet Milu three times.

The first time she saw Milu on the street, Lin Xinru couldn't help it and shouted: "Isn't this Milu!" "The coach who originally came to go shopping in a low-key manner was surrounded by fans and looked confused.

During the event, Ruby Lin accompanied a male colleague to an underground mall to buy drinks.

As a result, the colleague had a serious cough, and it happened that he didn't have a handkerchief on him, so the two of them wandered around the supermarket for a long time looking for paper towels for a single pack.

However, the paper towels in the supermarket were all sold in strips, and Lin Xinru was sweating profusely when she found it.

The quick-eyed colleague relied on his own cleverness to find what he was looking for on the small shelf in the checkout area, raised it, and shouted at Lin Xinru in the distance while shaking his hands happily: "Lin Xinru, I found itβ€”I found itβ€”"

Ruby Lin took a closer look, and her brother was holding a pack of Durex in his hand......

After buying tissues, the two of them took the escalator upstairs, and happened to take another photo with Mi Lu who was going downstairs on the escalator, Lin Xinru couldn't control and shouted again: "Isn't this Mi Lu!" The coach, who had returned to a low profile, was once again surrounded by enthusiastic fans and looked confused.

That night, Ruby Lin was very lucky, and won a set of Olympic commemorative Coke cans. also shook hands with guests Wang Leehom and Jacky Cheung and took a group photo.

After the performance, Jacky Cheung walked out of the staff passage, and was touched again by Ruby Lin, who happened to be walking around the staff passage, Lin Xinru couldn't control herself, and shouted at the god of songs: "Jacky Cheung, I love you!" ”

Jacky Cheung nodded politely to Ruby Lin and responded with a smile: "Thank you, I have a wife!" ”

Ruby Lin felt that this night was really happy.

Accidentally, I bumped into a foreign friend wearing a peaked cap.

Lin Xinru looked at it fixedly, and couldn't help but shout: "Isn't this Milu!" ”

The coach, who had already lowered the brim of his hat, was once again surrounded by enthusiastic fan groups, and he stared at Ruby Lin with a look of resentment!

Not only Ruby Lin, but also Xiahou Xuhui and Teacher Bi also came to Beijing, but they lived in a relative's house in Tongzhou.

The first time we got together in Beijing, Mr. Bi joked to Ruby Lin with a standard Beijing film: "Master, do you want to take a taxi and go?" ”

The three of them met for dinner at a time-honored restaurant on the weekend, and it happened that the hotel was holding a wedding.

Teacher Bi had a whim - I don't know what this time-honored brand tastes like for a wedding banquet? You can't order the dishes at the wedding banquet in normal times.

So the three of them entered the table and sat down at the groom's friend's table, no one paid attention to it, and ate a nonsense meal.

When the newlyweds toasted, they all ate candy, smoked cigarettes, drank wine, and repeatedly told the groom to take good care of the bride in the future.

Although both newcomers struggled to remember who they were, they accepted the blessings of the three "friends".

After they were full of wine and food, the three of them each took out 222 yuan and put together an auspicious amount and stuffed it into the red envelope box.

The inscription on the red envelope is "Wu Zhendong".

Readers who see this, if you are the newlyweds who got married that day, and have an impression of the name "Wu Zhendong" or that strange red envelope, as the bastard boy said that day, please be happy with your relatives with the blessings of the Zhendong Gang.

Coming to the end of a pleasant holiday trip to Beijing, Lin, Xia and Bi decided to go to Tiananmen Square to see the flag-raising together before returning to school.

But the night before the appointment, Ruby Lin's internship studio temporarily received an urgent outsourcing project.

The studio, which was a little short of manpower, had to temporarily cancel Ruby Lin's farewell party.

Ruby Lin also resolutely joined the overtime team - he estimated that the work given to him was not difficult in itself, so he could arrive at the appointed place at the appointed time to meet Xiahou and Teacher Bi.

The 4A advertising agency that outsourced the project to their studio also arranged for three young people to work on the scene and help with proofreading after work.

Ruby Lin was in charge of the design of a gift box for a Spring Festival promotion, and the life itself was very simple - this children's milk brand was working with Fujiko Β· F. Fujio Studio, Doraemon is the brand's cartoon spokesperson - just look for a few good-looking cartoon characters on the market according to a gift box packaging on the market.

Ruby Lin is doing it here, and a copywriter brother who is a little older than him from 4A helps him do proofreading work.

After a month of internship, Ruby Lin is simply familiar with using software to do this kind of simple typesetting, and she completed the design and proofreading in more than an hour.

Lin Xinru curiously asked the little brother next to him who was said to be named Johnny: "Did you come up with the design of this living packaging, or did the customer ask for it?" ”

Johnny also looked at Ruby Lin with interest, and replied with a smile that the customer asked for this.

"Isn't that a little too ordinary?" Ruby Lin looked at the design and the style of the renderings.

Johnny nodded in the affirmative, but said that it was best not to do anything superfluous as requested by the customer.

"During the Spring Festival, parents and elders give their children this milk, in addition to the nutrition of the milk itself, don't they also like it as a gift? But this gift doesn't look like the Spring Festival at all. Ruby Lin is actually asking Johnny for advice with a very sincere attitude.

Johnny actually felt that Ruby Lin had a point, and fell into the dilemma of "leaving work early" and "being serious and responsible for the project".

Looking at Ruby Lin's straightforward eyes, Johnny misses the enthusiasm he had when he first worked.

So Johnny felt that Lin Xinru was in trouble, and at the same time, he happily opened the vine Β· Studio F. Fujio provides a catalogue of cartoon materials.

There are five thick albums, with different eras and different themes. Two young people who love their work are seriously rummaging through the search for a better solution.

"What do you think of this image? The characters are wearing Tang costumes. Johnny showed Ruby Lin the materials he found.

Ruby Lin nodded, and also turned out the materials he found: "Look, here are some materials for Chinese knots, ingots, firecrackers, red envelopes and Spring Festival couplets, especially this Spring Festival couplet, if there is a better text, I can replace the original ones." ”

Johnny is the copywriter, and he promises to give him an hour and he will be able to come up with two or three neat couplets.

Just do it, Johnny copied the data disk of the corresponding material to Ruby Lin, Ruby Lin redesigned the layout here, and Johnny wrote a new up-and-down and horizontal batch over there.

In about two hours, the new Spring Festival promotional gift box was designed, and all the staff present unanimously approved the new design plan.

"This is considered option 2 and will be reported to the customer tomorrow!" Johnny said confidently.

Ruby Lin seriously said goodbye to the seniors who had taken care of him for a month, and happily ran to the agreed destination.

The three of them met at Jinsong Station on Line 10 and found a small restaurant to drink and eat.

After eating comfortably, I walked while chatting and walked to Tiananmen Square before 4 o'clock.

After witnessing the solemnity of the entire flag-raising ceremony, the three children were moved to tears.

With the help of passers-by, Ruby Lin, Teacher Bi, and Xiahou Xuhui learned from Jackie Chan's big brother in the MV with open arms, sang the chorus of "Beijing welcomes you", and took a group photo in Tiananmen Square.

A few days after the start of school, Ruby Lin received an email saying that the new packaging scheme he designed was favored by the customer at a glance, and it was directly proofed by the printing factory without any modifications.

Johnny, who was in charge of the project, was also praised by the client for this.

Lin Xinru read the payment of the email and learned that Johnny's Chinese name is "Deng Ziche".

Although Ruby Lin doesn't remember this incident three years later, the moment he received this email, he really looked forward to it - if only one day he could work with Deng Ziche.
