Chapter 32 Induction
June is coming to an end imperceptibly, and July is quietly approaching.
It's not yet the hottest time of the year in Seoul, but the weather is torturous enough.
The scorching sun scorched the pedestrians on the road, as if to assimilate their skin with the dried leaves on the ground, and the whole street was filled with a smell of burning that was unique to summer, and it was impossible to refresh the spirits.
In particular, the summer in Seoul is rainy, and the feeling of being hot and humid when the rain is about to arrive seems to deprive people of their right to breathe, and it makes people feel depressed.
"It seems that next time I have to go to the street with an umbrella, it doesn't matter if the sissy is not a sissy, and if I am roasted by this sun for a while, I will be almost the same as the omelette I made for Chaeyoung last night."
Xu Ran stretched out his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, although he had walked a few hundred meters after getting off the subway, it was enough for him to bear, Xu Ran, who had been studying in North America before, rarely had the opportunity to feel such a warm feeling.
Xu Ran came to Loen to report this afternoon, and Li Wenshi had already arranged it for him, and he needed to find a person named Zhang Shengyuan.
Zhang Shengyuan is Li Wenshi's old friend who has a good relationship with Loen, and he seems to be a leader-level boss, saying that he will arrange a job for himself.
Starting tomorrow Monday, Xu Ran's part-time life will officially begin.
Listening to Li Wenshi's statement, although he joined Loen to work through his connections, and he was only a short-term intern, how much he could get in the end was directly proportional to his performance - of course, it was not so much performance as the diligence of doing chores.
Xu Ran understood that this must be Li Wenshi's friend's concern, first of all, of course, he couldn't save Li Wenshi's face, but if he used his authority to help his friend, if he recruited a fool, he would inevitably be pointed at.
But in fact, Xu Ran is a very sensible person, he knows that Li Wenshi is willing to help him, and it is also because he knows that his grades are good, and he feels that he is not the kind of ordinary student who has to get by and live a chaotic life.
Therefore, Xu Ran, who entered the company in the name of Li Wenshi's junior, will of course work hard and will not let Li Wenshi be a bad person.
"Knock knock."
According to the information given by Li Wenshi, Xu Ran came to an office, knocked lightly on the door, and then waited patiently outside the door.
"Please come in." A deep man's voice came from inside the door.
Xu Ran pushed the door in, and there was a middle-aged man in a black suit and glasses sitting behind the desk in front of the meeting.
Xu Ran gently closed the door and came to stand in front of the man.
After a minute, it seemed that he had finally finished writing, the man finally put down the pen, rubbed his somewhat sore wrist, raised his head to look at the person, and saw that it was a strange young face, the middle-aged man was stunned for two seconds, and then reacted, and smiled: "You are the junior that Wenshi said, please take a seat." ”
Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief, Zhang Shengyuan used English, and it seemed that Li Wenshi gave him a penetration.
"Hello."
Xu Ran bowed, and then sat on the swivel chair in front of the table.
"Welcome to our company, Wenshi, this guy rarely asks for help, he used to be the only one to help others."
Zhang Shengyuan nodded, playing with the expensive-looking fountain pen in his hand, and his tone was very casual.
It sounded like Zhang Shengyuan was reminiscing about his relationship with Li Wenshi, but Xu Ran savored the meaning of his words, and instantly recalled.
This is a subtle knock on yourself, which means that you are looking at the face of an old friend to let you into the company, and you don't really believe in yourself.
"I heard Wenshi say that your language level is not very good, do you have the confidence to do daily trivial work?"
As Xu Ran expected, Zhang Shengyuan paused for two seconds and asked a sharp question directly, and his eagle-like sharp eyes stared directly at Xu Ran's eyes, as if he wanted to hook out the panic in Xu Ran's heart, which was a natural momentum from a person who had been in a leadership position for a long time.
Xu Ran calmly looked at Zhang Shengyuan, and his tone was neither humble nor arrogant:
"You're right, my language skills do need to be improved, but I don't think my reading and writing skills are a problem, so as long as it's not a communication job, I think I can do it, and I've been practicing hard in my spare time lately."
"There's a lot to deal with lately, and even though you're an intern, you're not necessarily going to be able to paddle, and the workload will definitely match your pay. And can you guarantee that there are no mistakes in the work, and if something goes wrong, you need to be responsible. ”
Zhang Shengyuan cocked his legs, his ten fingers touched each other in the shape of a spire, and his body leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, Xu Ran could feel that the other party wanted to give him a stronger sense of oppression.
But Xu Ran didn't eat this at all, his father was a very high-level leader of the company, Xu Ran had seen some of these things more or less, and he also knew that this was often just a means for the leader to control it, but it was just a trick to play with employees.
He clearly remembered how his father, who was like a majestic lion in front of his subordinates in the company, was as docile as a cat in front of his mother when he returned home.
"Please rest assured, my attitude towards work will be very serious, what should be done will be completed, will not make it difficult for you to do, to ensure that no one can make mistakes this kind of thing no one can do, but I will definitely do my best!"
Xu Ran's tone was still very calm, and he replied meticulously.
"Of course, I also hope that you can be stingy in your work to guide me, and I believe that my ability will make great progress under you."
Xu Ran paused, held back the discomfort of goosebumps, and carried a fancy sedan chair for Zhang Shengyuan.
No matter what kind of leader, he always eats this set. After all, Zhang Shengyuan will be his direct leader in the future, and he will work under him for two months, and he still has to get along well.
"Yes, it seems that the ability to resist pressure is quite strong, and the attitude is also very serious."
Zhang Shengyuan nodded with satisfaction, with his years of experience, the temptation of three or two sentences was enough for him to know Xu Ran: "It seems that I should believe in Brother Wenshi's vision, and report to the company on time at eight o'clock in the morning on July 1." ”
"To be honest, as an intern, I can't give you any particularly critical or very difficult work, so you can just follow me and help me with some related things, such as organizing documents, summarizing manuscripts, etc. It just so happens that my life secretary is not very good at handling work affairs. Since you are a top student at Seoul National University, I still believe in your ability. ”
"No problem, it's up to you."
Seo Ran naturally has no opinion, he has no delusional hope that he will be able to get in touch with the core business of the company that owns the No. 1 music brand in South Korea, MelOn.
As a foreigner, in this strange place on the peninsula, it is enough for Xu Ran to be satisfied not to be treated with colored glasses.
