Chapter 161: A New Beginning
After Yan Juan cast two inexplicable looks, she was told by Liu Li that her designer's regularization procedures had been completed, and Liu Wenling was assigned to her as an assistant. Because she has a lot of tasks in her hands, she can also recruit another assistant.
"Huh? I also have an assistant? Yan Juan was a little dizzy.
A few months ago, she was just a probationary assistant. And now, she can actually use her own assistant? Although such a change was her expectation, the speed was a bit too fast, and she couldn't adapt to it for a while.
"Yan Xuan, your ascension is definitely fast!" Liu Li sighed.
"I... It seems that self-reliance is too shallow, right? Moreover, Shen Siwei has already left the Yan family, and if I leave again, aren't there only two of your assistants left? ”
Liu Li looked regretful: "Isn't it?" Shen Siwei forget it, you are the Optimus Pillar I accepted, and the design tasks every month, as long as you are there, there is no reason why it cannot be completed. Right now... It seems that my free days are coming to an end. ”
Yan Juan looked at him cognitively and said, "Thank you, Liu Li, I will never forget your help to me." If it weren't for you, maybe I would have been 'groping' on this road for a long time. Why don't I be your assistant? ”
"Nonsense! Your ability, do I dare to use you as an assistant? What a fool's errand, are we still friends? Even for the sake of you inviting me to eat so many meals, my little favors are still deserved. Liu Li smiled, "Don't worry, you're afraid that I won't be able to recruit an assistant?" ”
Yan Juan smiled embarrassedly, knowing how slight her hospitality was compared to Liu Li's maintenance of her.
"In order to congratulate you on your promotion, you have to 'show' your hand today and let me feast." Liu Li's 'desire' appearance made Yan Juan laugh.
"Just come back, you just want to exploit Yan Juan!" Yan Yixin felt sorry for her.
"It's okay, we're going to eat anyway." Yan Juan hurriedly took over the conversation, not noticing that Liu Li's gaze was gloomy for a moment.
"We can go out to eat before, let's go to Yaying Club, Japanese food is very authentic. These days in country X, you should be tired of dealing with Jarvis alone. Yan Yixin's eyes were full of pity.
"Okay, the sake there's good." Liu Li didn't wait for Yan Juan to refute, so he raised his hands in agreement.
Yan Juan called Liu Wenling, and the four of them happened to be around the tatami mats. The waiters are all dressed in kimonos, and the clogs are in harmony with the soothing music.
Liu Wenling was a little cramped towards the two handsome guys, after all, one was the art director, and the other was even more amazing, the executive president of the company.
Fortunately, she didn't see the clues, Yan Juan and Yan Yixin's eyebrows and flirtatious, so that she chose to talk to Liu Li more. And Liu Li was originally a talkative person, and when he spoke alone, he could talk endlessly for two hours. Coupled with Liu Wenling's adoring eyes, she was even more energetic.
Yan Juan has never been very cold to Japanese food, which is contrary to her usual style of eating, and she seems to be a ladylike when she eats well.
"Don't like it?" Yan Yixin immediately caught this, "Why don't we change to a restaurant?" ”
"Don't!" Yan Juan hurriedly shook his head, "I just feel that the bowing of these waiters has a bit of a servile taste, which is very uncomfortable."
I'm not really Japanese, so why do I have to learn this kind of etiquette? ”
"Where do you get so many feelings!" Liu Li disagreed, "Since it is a Japanese restaurant, of course, every move, every dish and soup must be learned." Otherwise, you might as well go to a Chinese restaurant! ”
"What's so bad about a Chinese restaurant? When you walk in, you feel intimate. Except, of course, for large five-star hotels. Yan Xuan retorted, "Obviously Chinese, of course you have to eat Chinese food!" ”
"I didn't expect you to be so patriotic... Liu Li smiled helplessly.
"This doesn't have much to do with patriotism, does it? It's just a habit since I was a child, and I've been eating it for 20 years! Yan Juan grabbed the white without showing weakness.
"Doesn't this mean that I feel sorry for you? Otherwise, you can eat your own Chinese food today. Alas, eating and eating is still Yan Wan's home-cooked food, which can warm the stomach the most. Liu Li blinked, and Yan Juan immediately fell silent.
Although her relationship with Yan Yixin is no longer a secret. But every time she turned the topic to them, Yan Juan still felt a little at a loss.
Fortunately, Yan Yixin changed the topic empathetically, and once he talked about design, Yan Xuan's expression became vivid again. Liu Xiangling looked at her enviously and listened to her and Liu Li discuss the concept of design with each other.
"The burden on Yan Juan's shoulders is very heavy, tourmaline and garnet, which can be made into two series. And, of course, the perfectly cut 'naked' diamond from Belgium, which has been locked in Yan's safe. I'll show you tomorrow, and you can start to finish this design first. ”
"Well, the diamond... Yan Xuan's eyes widened with delight.
"It's late today, and besides, the company also has company regulations, so you can't open the safe now." Yan Yixin is very persistent.
"Alright then, we'll go see it early tomorrow morning. I think...
It's been delayed for a few days, and it's time to see it early enough to start conceiving. ”
"Of course, we all wish you had drawn the design earlier. After all, this diamond can open the curtain on cooperation with Belgium. Yan Yixin said with a smile.
"This is the highlight of the Yan family this year, but you are favored by two other tycoons at the same time." Liu Li frowned, "Although it's an honor, I'm afraid that Yan Juan's pressure is too great." Yixin, you shouldn't put these burdens on Yan Juan's shoulders. ”
Hearing Liu Li's sincere maintenance of his sincerity, as well as his faint dissatisfaction with Yan Yixin, Yan Juan was 'excited' and ashamed.
"Liu Li, I'm fine. I also said that my inspiration is wholesale. And the situation in country X does not allow us to refuse. Fortunately, his request was not high at all, and he only asked for one a month. ”
"You just draw the sketches, and the three views and the renderings are all done by the assistant. Otherwise, I'll let Zhang Qing go and give you a hand, although this kid is not serious, his basic skills are still solid. If you want to recruit a new assistant, you may not be able to catch up with Zhang Qing for a while. ”
Yan Juan hurriedly shook his head: "How can that work?" Zhang Qing is my senior, and he is from a professional class, so I don't have enough confidence to let him be my assistant. ”
"What's the shortfall?" Liu Li couldn't laugh or cry, "Your abilities and achievements are there, who would dare not be convinced?" Besides, Zhang Qing is not a cautious man, I will talk to him tomorrow, if he is willing, then everyone will be happy. ”
Yan Juan was moved, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate: "No, Zhang Qing follows you, and the future is much better." I was promoted to designer, that's not ... Did you bury him? ”
"Don't worry, your future in the future is limitless!" Yan Yixin 'interjected', "However, Zhang Qing must be willing to do it, otherwise, it will not be good to make some emotions at that time." ”
"Okay, I'll talk to Zhang Qing tomorrow. He also doesn't have much fame and fortune, so it shouldn't be a problem. Liu Li is full of confidence, and it can be seen that he has a good relationship with Zhang Qing.
Yan Juan felt that he was not going to go for more than 100 million: "How do I feel that I am digging into the corner... ”
Liu Li waved his hand: "Don't give me a fake look, I can't let you smash Yan's brand, right?" Besides, even if I refuse to let go, it is estimated that Yixin has already taken a fancy to him, so I will be a favor. ”
Yan Yixin smiled, it seemed that he had already had this intention.
They dispersed early, and Yan Juan was a little apprehensive: "I think Zhang Qing is more senior than me, let him be my assistant, isn't it too much... A little disrespectful to people? ”
"Liu Li said that Zhang Qing would not perform this." Yan Yixin shook his head, "Your task is to design excellent works, these personnel problems, don't spend too much thought, 'hand' them over to me to worry about." ”
"However, I always felt that this was a bit unorthodox. What do you think, Liu Li's two assistants, went to three at once... ”
"You think he's a silver pewter spearhead? He himself has a good strength, but you have been robbing him of the limelight recently.
Except for this eighty-nine faceted diamond, your design is different from theirs, most of them are mid-to-low-grade gemstones, and there is no major conflict with Liu Li. ”
"Oh." Yan Juan nodded.
Yan Yixin parked the car and didn't get out of the car in a hurry, but looked at Yan Juan seriously and said, "You are just starting out, I don't mind if you work these resistance gems." However, if you really want to achieve the position of chief designer, the king of gemstones, diamonds, is a hurdle that you can't get around. ”
Yan Juan nodded silently: "I understand." ”
She has been lingering on jewelry with a relatively low price positioning, because of the lack of confidence in the design of precious stones. She thought, fortunately, when she entered the industry, she met Liu Li. If you change someone, I don't know how many stumbling blocks will be made for her in secret. Few people will be like Liu Li, who uses a 'selfless' heart to help her grow.
Yan's chief designer, for her, is still a long dream.
"However, I think Liu Xiangling may not be able to help you too much as your assistant. It's just that I saw that the 'girl' student is also very able to endure hardships, and it is your classmate, so it is more convenient to come and go together, so I proposed you to be an assistant. So Liu Li gave Zhang Qing to you, which can be regarded as sharing a little work for you. ”
"I understand, you're all very nice to me." Yan Juan nodded solemnly, "Xiang Ling's progress is very fast, although she doesn't have the ability to design independently, but it's okay to mention me to draw." ”
"If she's not up to the job, you can hire a new assistant. Don't let her get in the way of her because she's your classmate. A person, after all, is just a head and two hands. ”
Yan Wan smiled: "You are too underestimated to look at Ling, she is from a mountain village, she has an indomitable energy, I believe she will not be worse than other assistants!" ”
