Chapter 17: The school allocates internship units
In March 2000, we ushered in the graduation internship of the last year of university, since we studied civil engineering, it was natural for me to enter the construction company for internship, our school used to have cooperative relations with three companies in city A, and that year there was another "Yaxin real estate".
Most of my classmates went to the other three companies, but I was the only one who went to the construction department of Yaxin Real Estate, and I didn't know why at the time, and I was still upset about it. I went to the head teacher and said, "Why did I go to this company alone?" "I didn't know that this company was Sister Ya's, and she hadn't told me the name of her company since I met her, only that it was a real estate company.
The head teacher is a man, he patted me on the shoulder and said: "Hey, Xiaoyang, your grades have always been the best in our class, this company is not ordinary, Hong Kong listed companies, the strength is quite strong, they are recruiting Tsinghua University, Xi'an Jiaotong University students to intern, they recruit basically people who can stay in the company, people heard that you are the best in our school, haven't you won several model design awards?" That's why you went, you kid, huh! "I heard this, and it makes sense, I am indeed the best in the class, and I have won many design awards, just when I was about to go out, a girl in our class came in, she was beautiful, Zhao Meng, her father is said to be an official in the municipal party committee office.
After she came in, she said to the head teacher very angrily: "Teacher Yang, I just called my dad, I didn't know that Yaxin Real Estate was recruiting interns in our place, my dad was looking for someone, and he said let me go over too, let me say hello to the school!" The head teacher is very snobbish, and he is the best to Zhao Meng in the class, just because her father is an official, he is usually very stammering and polite, and after hearing this, he smiled and said: "Well, it's good, it's just right, you and Li Yang go over together, and it's good to be a companion!" Zhao Meng seemed to have noticed me and smiled at me.
To be honest, after four years of school, some of the seven or eight girls in our class, some of them have never spoken at all, and I only occasionally say a few words to Zhao Meng, and their girls know that I am a taciturn person, of course they know why, my family background is not good.
That's it, Zhao Meng and I entered Yaxin Real Estate for an internship together, her family conditions are superior, she has been buying mobile phones since she was in college, buying MP3 with MP3, Walkman, camera or something, often changing, she is not the same kind of person as us.
So I've always kept my distance from her, but the two of us went to the internship together, and they were in the same class, so it was inevitable that they would have to talk a lot.
I did the internship, and the other classmates all changed their outfits, they all bought suits and shoes, and some even carried a briefcase, and all of a sudden it was really the same as the people who work in the society, I looked at them, I thought if I should also change it, but at that time, I only had 200 yuan on my body, and this money was still the money that Sister Ya gave me to buy vegetables.
I didn't change my line, and I couldn't wear the good winter clothes that Sister Ya bought for me, so I put on the sweater I had worn for four years again, and a pair of black tweed pants that were relatively good below, when I went to Yaxin Real Estate to report on the first day, I could see that in the luxuriously decorated company, many brightly dressed men and women looked at me there, as if they were looking at a clown who broke into the palace.
Zhao Meng also went to report that day, she also seemed to feel a little shabby when she saw me, and she was embarrassed to say it directly, the first thing she said to me was: "Li Yang, we are about to graduate, we will work in the future, we can no longer wear school clothes, boys should wear suits, so formal!" I smiled and nodded, and she said, "My brother has a lot of suits that he doesn't wear, and he is about the same height as you, if you don't mind, I'll give it to you!" I knew what she meant, after all, classmates for four years, although they haven't said anything, but there is still a classmate friendship, but I was busy shaking my head and saying, "Thank you, no need, I bought it recently!" "I still love face very much, I don't want to be like this, I don't want to have anything to do with her, after all, she has a boyfriend, and I won't think about it.
She wasn't in the same department as me, she went to the marketing department because she was beautiful, and the company asked her to do PR.
