Chapter 21 Suit and Tie, Special Assistance
Zhang Qian put away the agreement with Li, picked up the phone, called Secretary Wang, and explained: "Li is my newly appointed special assistant to the general manager, you take him to buy two sets of high-end suits, two sets of ties, and leather shoes." He came from the mountains and didn't know much about this, so you have to help him carefully palm his eyes and check the gates. The color and style of clothing should be in accordance with his skin color and figure; In addition, tie and leather shoes should be coordinated with suits. Secretary Wang looked Li up and down, and then said, "Don't worry, according to his figure and skin color, I know how to buy the right one, he must be handsome and handsome when he wears it." β
Li followed Secretary Wang to buy a suit, and on the way, Secretary Wang asked him:
"When did Mr. Zhang appoint you as her special assistant to the general manager?"
"Just now."
Secretary Wang looked at him again and said:
"Your conditions are good, work hard, and you will have a great future in the future."
"Nope. I came from the mountains, I have never seen the world, and my education is not high, I only graduated from high school, I have not studied in college, and I don't know much English, so I am not a good condition. Li introduced himself truthfully.
"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm better than you in these. Your qualifications are gifted, and I will never be able to possess them. You don't have to go to college to study English, just rely on your good blank to work, it's worth a lot of money! You don't know yet, do you? Secretary Wang pointed at Li and smiled, laughing so inexplicably that Li was a little inexplicable.
"Secretary Wang, don't make such a joke, I can't afford it. I'm here to work, to earn money through labor, and I don't want to rely on selling appearance and eating soft rice. Li Zhengse said.
"Don't be stupid! If you don't take advantage of such good conditions, but you have to earn money by labor, who believes it! Let me ask you: Why don't you work as a porter in the packaging workshop, but you want to be the general manager's special assistant to Mr. Zhang? Duplicity, right? "It seems that Secretary Wang knows a little bit about Li's situation.
"Don't wronged me. Although I am not a college student, I have also read books for so many years, and I have studied physics, chemistry, algebra and geometry, at least I should be a technician and learn some technology; As a porter, I only contribute my strength, but I can't learn technology, and I am a little unwilling. β
"That's a nice thing to say. What skills can I learn as a special assistant to the general manager? β
"That's because you don't want to learn, if you want to learn, there are many things to learn, at least you can see how the general manager manages the factory and handles the daily business, which is very knowledgeable!"
"Haha, you think beautifully! The position of the special assistant to the general manager has not yet been secured, so I want to learn the experience of managing the factory, and become a master in the future to help Mr. Zhang manage the company? Do you think that Mr. Zhang will trust you so easily and let you take over her class? β
"What nonsense are you talking about? Can't part-time workers learn from the experience of managing a factory? Do you want to work for the rest of your life? β
"It's okay if you don't work, you can go back to the Daliang Mountains to continue working, farming and hunting every day, eating coarse grains, and wearing coarse clothes."
"I want to choose to stay in Shenzhen. Shenzhen has so many high-tech that it is worth learning. β
"How to learn? In college, you are not a student. The only way is to work. Otherwise, what do you rely on to establish yourself and live in Shenzhen? β
"Can't I start my own business and be my own boss?"
"Start your own business, be your own boss? Easy to say! What about your funds? What about talent? What about technology? Can you start a business and be a boss out of thin air? There's no one working yet. β
"I have the money I saved from my part-time job."
"Just your money? It's almost the same to open a shop that repairs household appliances. β
"Opening a shop that repairs household appliances is better than working for others for the rest of your life. You haven't heard people say that a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Therefore, I believe that a worker who does not want to be a boss is not a person with ideals. β
"Okay, you're ambitious! When you become the boss, I'll quit my job and work for you, okay? β
"Don't you want to be the boss?"
"I thought about it, and I tried it, but I failed several times, and I lost all the little money I had earned so hard, so I had to come back to work. Now, even more daring to think about it. It's better to work honestly, there is no risk, as long as you do the work assigned by the boss well, you will have a salary when the time comes, you can support your family, train your son, you don't have to think about anything, you don't have to take any risks. β
"You are still so young and a college student, you should have your own ideals and ambitions."
"Don't persuade me, my life is very stable at present, my family is very happy, and Mr. Zhang trusts us as a husband and wife, I don't want to take that risk again."
"What, your husband also works here?" ξ₯
"Yes. The head of your packing workshop is my husband, and a son is sent to kindergarten; In the evening, a family of three returned home, husband and wife, parent-child, happy, what's wrong? Why should I take that risk? Starting a business, you think it's easy? β
"No wonder you don't want to start a business, it turns out that you are already satisfied. I can't do it, my wife and children are all in the mountains, and the family is still very difficult, I want to create a beautiful life garden for them, a space for them to develop themselves. β
"Young man, don't be arrogant. It's good that you can be the special assistant to the general manager, do it well, don't dream of starting a business anymore, it's not so easy to start a business! One has no capital, two has no technology, and you are just a high school student, how do you start a business? Mr. Zhang treats you well and values you very much, that is to take a fancy to your image, and ask me to take you to buy a high-end suit, package you well, and make you shine. This is a special treatment that has never been seen in the staff, it is rare, you must know to cherish and cherish. Stop thinking about it, it's not realistic. Don't worry, I will definitely help you buy two sets of fashionable and well-fitting high-end suits, with suitable ties and leather shoes, so that Mr. Zhang and you are satisfied. β
Li saw that Secretary Wang was very loyal to her duties and was not enthusiastic about starting a business, so he no longer persuaded her.
Secretary Wang took Li to a large shopping mall, with five floors up and down, luxuriously decorated, reasonably arranged, and all kinds of goods. On each floor, there is a welcome etiquette lady dressed in a uniform manner, with a splendid cheongsam, clever tongue, and a warm greeting and introduction, giving people a feeling of being at home. The rolling elevator goes up and down, and the river is endless. Customers gathered, bustling, endless. They pick and choose the goods, and they judge the products.
Secretary Wang took him to the garment city soon. Here all kinds of clothing are classified and arranged, all kinds, thousands of postures, colorful and shining with each other.
Secretary Wang asked Li, "What are your requirements for suits?" β
Li looked at the rows of expensive suits of various brands, as if he had entered the aristocratic world, and he couldn't say which brand was better and more suitable for him. After looking at it for a long time, he said, "I didn't wear a suit, and I can't say anything about it." I just hope it's not too expensive, I can't afford it. In addition, the color should be more sophisticated, the style should be more solemn, and not too fashionable, so that people will say that I have forgotten my roots when I entered the Special Economic Zone. β
Secretary Wang couldn't help but bend down and laugh when he heard this, and said: "What age are they, and they still remember to change and forget their roots, these old-fashioned clichΓ©s, look at the newspapers and TV, where are these words?" Now is a new era of reform and opening up, and there is no such thing as changing or forgetting the basics. You see, which of the red men and green women on the street is still the image of the 'Cultural Revolution'? Could it be that they are all cultivators and forget their roots? Remember, you can't say that in Shenzhen. It can only be said that wearing suits and fashions is a sign and need of the progress of the times and the development of civilization. It seems that I can't listen to you, I have to listen to Mr. Zhang. As for the price, you don't care, Mr. Zhang said, all from the office expenses. β
"What? Do I wear clothes that the company spends from office expenses? That doesn't make sense, right? β
"Don't make a fuss. Mr. Zhang said, your clothes are only work clothes. β
"Overalls! So why a fancy suit? The work clothes of the workers in the state-owned factories in our county are all jackets made of blue labor cloth. β
"That's the workers of your county, this is the special zone of Shenzhen, you are the special assistant of Mr. Zhang, you can't be compared at all. Do you know how much Mr. Zhang's dress is? Hundreds of thousands, or dollars! β
"What a tyrannical thing! Clothes are just to keep warm and cover the body, why are they so expensive? β
"You're far behind in that kind of thinking. Clothes are not only for warmth and cover, but also to reflect the spirit and taste of the wearer. Look at Mr. Zhang, although she is not particularly beautiful, her elegant temperament and demeanor are not found by others, in addition to the difference in cultivation and living habits, dress is also the main thing. β
Li shook his head: "Temperament and demeanor, I think the main thing is cultural accomplishment." I don't understand the matter of clothing, you just look at it and buy it according to Mr. Zhang's requirements, I have no opinion. β
"You can't have an opinion. As Mr. Zhang's special assistant, everything must be done according to Mr. Zhang's requirements. β
After Secretary Wang finished speaking, he went to choose a suit alone. After a while, she took out two sets and asked Li to try them on, Li wore them out, she looked at them carefully, and said, "In line with Mr. Zhang's requirements, these are these two sets." "I didn't ask for Lee's opinion and went to pay. Li didn't just ask, he thought, since Mr. Zhang has a request, she will not listen to my opinion, anyway, the good and bad are all spent by Mr. Zhang, from the office expenses.
After the suit was bought, Secretary Wang took him to buy a tie and leather shoes that matched the suit, and again, according to Mr. Zhang's opinion, Secretary Wang chose it himself, and did not listen to his opinion.
When it was almost time to get off work, Secretary Wang and Li came back together. Secretary Wang reported to Mr. Zhang that two sets of suits were bought, one silver-gray and one dark blue, together with ties and leather shoes, which cost a total of more than 8,000 yuan. Mr. Zhang nodded. She turned to Li to look up, only to see that Li was wearing a silver-gray high-end suit, a fuchsia tie, black leather shoes, and a new haircut, looking dignified, graceful, handsome and chic.
Mr. Zhang looked up and down, walked over and pulled the front and back plackets, patted Li's shoulder, and said, "Not bad." Remember, this is your overalls, and the two sets are worn in rotation. I don't care what you wear in the dormitory; When you work in an office or go out with me to run errands, you have to wear a suit and tie. It's etiquette and it's a rule. Lee nodded in agreement.
