It's been about a month since the last time we met at the airport in Tianjin, and it's been another big hug, and it's chattering non-stop. After learning that Zhang Lan hadn't eaten lunch for another day, Sun Han was a little disgusted and muttered, "I can't help but give you food, I'm here to Shanghai, the food here is light, just have a good meal..."

In a restaurant near Zhongshan Park in Shanghai's Changning District.

Sun Han: "I deliberately found a Japanese meal, I can't be lighter anymore, this house is okay, sometimes we come over at noon." Have you been going well for the past two days? ”

Zhang Lan: "Yesterday I ran two schools in Hangzhou, both of which were okay, but today this one may have to work harder, there is no substantial progress." I'll have to keep running tomorrow. ”

Sun Han: "How many days can you stay in Shanghai?" Didn't you say that you were going to see the camp temporarily? ”

Zhang Lan: "Tomorrow it will be the afternoon to go to school again, and the day after tomorrow I will go to the camp all day on Thursday and Friday morning, and I guess I will fly around Friday evening." So I'm going to have to harass you for three nights. ”

Sun Han: "Hahaha, I'm not always welcome, my door is always open..."

Zhang Lan interrupted with a busy smile, "The next sentence is not necessary..."

The two of them were eating, chatting, and laughing, and seeing that the time was almost 7 o'clock, Sun Han pulled Zhang Lan and got on the subway line 2 home.

In Changning District, Shanghai, Sun Han lives in a rented house.

When I entered the door, I saw a simple and square layout, "It's really like the photo." Zhang Lan smiled as she entered the door. Sun Han also replied with a smile: "I haven't retouched the picture, anyway, it's the old community, the old house, and the inside has been renovated, so it looks okay, the surrounding is very lively and convenient, and it's close to the subway station, so it's okay." Zhang Lan also replied: "Yes, it's okay, and this price is also... I still don't irritate you, I'm the rent in Chengdu. Sun Han returned his hand and patted Zhang Lan gently, "You better shut up, besides, I want to go to Chengdu..."

Zhang Lan asked a little strangely: "Hey, isn't there a balcony here?" ”

Sun Han pointed to the inside and said: "The balcony is connected to the bedroom, and it seems that the bedroom is very large, but unfortunately the balcony is gone." This living room also seems to be cut out.,Anyway, there's a door and a partition.,It's quite exquisite.。 ”

Zhang Lan: "By the way, you don't have to accompany me, don't you always work overtime, and it's all done today?" ”

Sun Han: "Almost this month and next month, it's all training and homework, it's like going back to college, I won't be so desperate every day, you come over, it's rare to have time to see, but your company, all kinds of reports and the like, do you need to get it first?" ”

Zhang Lan: "Of course, when I was waiting for you just now, I quickly wrote the report, and the evening time will be yours." ”

Sun Han got up with a smile, opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of sparkling wine, poured a glass and handed it over, and pointed to the bottle again, "Do you remember this brand?" ”

Zhang Lan immediately reacted, "Of course I remember, your favorite, didn't we go to this winery again during that time." Ki

Over there, it's more than 3 hours to drive from your house, although it's not as good as Ya

a Valley、Mo

i

gto

Those are famous, but the scenery is really good, and I remember a cheese factory that was particularly good. ”

Sun Han nodded, sat down beside Zhang Lan, lowered his eyes, and said silently: "I sometimes miss the days when I was in Tasmania, when I walked to school every morning, and kept replying to strangers' smiles and greetings along the way. ”

Zhang Lan: "Your formation is so crazy, at your pace, you have to walk for more than 1 hour each way." ”

Sun Han: "1 hour and 10 minutes, so I will never lose weight again in this life." Later, I moved to live halfway up the mountain, and I was tired of going up the mountain and climbing the mountain every day. It's too much exercise. As if thinking of something, Sun Han continued, "I still admire you, and I have adapted well after coming back for 1 year, and I regret it a little bit in the past 1 month." ”

Zhang Lan: "I can't help it, I regret it when I come back for a day, a week, or a month, and it's not a year to adapt, it's just that I can't help it, I have to adapt." In fact, you said that nothing big happens every day, that is, there are always some trivial details every day, and there are very different feelings, which is not bad, but I am not used to it. What's wrong, isn't the work going well? ”

Sun Han: "It's still those things, Australians don't understand the domestic, and the domestic ones can't imagine the brain circuits at the Australian headquarters, I'm caught in the middle, it's even more difficult." The most asked in Australia is why, all kinds of whys every day, they ask me why I can't come to the door to talk to the principal directly, and the question is a simple sentence, I want to explain this but I have to write a large paragraph, and it may not be explained thoroughly. There is still the advancement of the time node, the headquarters wants to copy it directly, they feel that so many branches have been directly copied before, and it has been verified that there is no problem, why do they have to localize it in Shanghai. The problem is that Australia and our holiday time are different, how can it be copied, and those branches in New Zealand, the United States, Singapore, and Malaysia can of course copy the process. How can we be unanimous here......" As if pouring out a series of brains, Sun Han took another big sip of wine.

Zhang Lan smiled and teased: "You won't be drunk in bars", and slowly pressed Sun Han's hand holding the wine glass, "Don't be in a hurry to drink." Maybe this is the difference between China and foreign countries, and it is difficult to reconcile the cultural background. ”

Sun Han: "It's not just that, if the headquarters is not in a hurry and has to make trial and error, then these can be slowly adjusted and slowly advanced." And there's still no full-time real leader here, the Joh you mentioned earlier

It's an escrow, and I fly to Shanghai every month for less than a week, and I have to report to Australia for big things, and I have to talk to Joh for small things

Communication, but the frequency of processing is simply too inefficient. Plus there may be some planning, and it's not quite consistent. The concept of the headquarters is that they only do international research and camp business, and they are not sure about it in China, as if they are a little afraid of it, I have mentioned it several times, but there is no reply. Anyway, I always think that only doing international lines is too single, and the customer portrait can achieve accurate matching at best, but at worst, such a high customer unit price corresponds to such a small number of customers, is it difficult to only do the so-called high-precision. In addition, there may be a bit of a risk to some extent, in case the international line cannot be carried out, there is no way out. ”

Zhang Lan picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses, and said, "Just because of your analysis of the Tao, it's worth touching a glass." Then he continued: "Actually, you still have a lot of problems, and in the final analysis, it comes down to cultural backgrounds, different rhythms and ways of doing things. ”

Sun Han preemptively said, "Yes, I myself understand what Australia said, I also understand what my colleagues around me said, and I can also see the current situation here." But it's really difficult to get Australia to have a deep understanding of the real situation in China. I'm going to send an email directly to invite the headquarters to send someone to Shanghai for a while, and I have to follow us to look at the environment, run the market, and analyze the products, so that we can improve a little. ”

Zhang Lan: "Your cost is really high, and several of you have already been dispatched, no matter how many expatriates you assign, you may not be able to agree." ”

Sun Han: "It's true, but to be honest, in fact, the headquarters is the most deserving of people, but the headquarters didn't send people, and several other branches came to assist." Actually, it's a good thing, face-to-face communication of product content is definitely better than online, but they're already gone, it's just the beginning, and they've been there for about two weeks. When they were there, the atmosphere here was really, as if they were still in Australia, and English, Cantonese, and Chinese were spoken in the company every day, and of course, there was also Mandarin in Singapore, our Mandarin, and dialects, and so on, and it was quite joyful. As he spoke, he sighed again and continued: "Alas, the atmosphere of the company is probably the only thing left. ”

Zhang Lan: "If it's really too difficult to advance, will you really consider Chengdu?" ”

Sun Han: "To be honest, I won't quit just because I just encounter some problems at work, but if the general direction and development plan cannot be consistent, then I don't rule out other considerations." Of course Chengdu can be considered, you know. Chengdu's last interview can be regarded as a reserve first, let's see the follow-up opportunities. ”

The two of them just leaned side by side and chatted, talking about joy, laughing, and when they were depressed, they touched the cup and dissolved it......

The next day was a new day, working and getting together, and the few days of rare meeting were still spent like this, and they were separated......

Time is going day by day, and the remote classes of the education and training company have also been realized from experiments, gradually to stable output; And Sun Han is here, the days in Shanghai are two months, three months, half a year...... I often look back and feel that time has flown by, and when I look again, time has come to the last month of 2019. I think that Chengdu in winter is probably similar to Shanghai, and the cold weather is even worse in Shanghai.

In Changning District, Shanghai, Sun Han lives in a rented house.

With the air conditioner and electric heater on his side, he held his mobile phone and had a rare leisure time on vacation. Looking at the dialog boxes of several familiar avatars for more than half a year, Zhang Lan, who was pinned, and Alex, who was also pinned but had not talked too many times, had mixed feelings. I simply opened the travel platform app, immediately bought the ticket, and sent a message to the person at the top, "I bought a ticket to climb Mount Emei." ”

Sometimes the words that come out of the way can seem like spoilers. Sun Han also couldn't imagine that this trip to Chengdu, which was originally a rest trip, would have become an opportunity to get the next job in advance.
