Chapter 252: It's Just a Meal
Jiang Yu didn't expect that Xiong Yusheng's daughter, after tasting a few peach blossom shortbreads, would be addicted!
"I brought two boxes of those peach blossom shortbreads you brought me, and the rest were distributed to Vice Principal He and Niu Wenlin like last time."
On the other end of the phone, Xiong Yusheng's tone was quite embarrassing, probably he was really embarrassed to make this call, but there was no way, it was all for his daughter.
"As a result, after I took it home, my daughter just tasted it, and she was reluctant to put it down, and she didn't even have lunch or dinner, so she just ate this peach blossom shortbread.
Yesterday morning, she had eaten all two boxes of shortbread by herself, and my wife and I didn't even taste a bite.
Who knows, after eating the shortbread, she didn't stop, pestering me to say that I still want to eat this peach blossom cake, I said no, she cried, and told her mother that I didn't like her anymore.
All day yesterday, my head was about to burst open with her crying! ”
"I thought it was a big deal, what's the matter, children are not like this, when they meet something they like to eat, they can't help but want to eat."
After Jiang Yu heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and he said comfortingly,
"Teacher Xiong is fine, I just made some peach blossom shortbread yesterday, and now there are some in the cafeteria, you can come and get them now."
After a pause, he smiled again and said,
"The canteen has just launched a new Jiangzhou mixed noodles in the past few days, you haven't eaten it yet, you can just come and try it."
"Uh......"
On the other end of the phone, Xiong Yusheng hesitated again, looking very embarrassed, after thinking about it, he still said,
"Xiao Jiang, I may want to take a few more peach blossom shortbreads, because Niu Wenlin and they also called me to see if you have any peach blossom shortbread......
After a pause, he hurriedly said again,
"Xiao Jiang, don't get me wrong, we can pay at the market price, and we definitely can't eat you for nothing."
Jiang Yu sent it to the door, whether it was those peach blossom shortbread last time, or the Qingming fruit last time, it can be regarded as Jiang Yu's gratitude to the teacher and gave them to eat, of course, this can be done without paying.
If you raise money, it will hurt your feelings too much.
But now Xiong Yusheng himself called and wanted it, so of course he had to pay, Jiang Yu was a canteen after all, and what he did was the business of selling food, and he always ate other people's food for nothing, so what's the matter?
As a literati, Xiong Yusheng's moral bottom line is still very high, and he can't do this kind of thing at all.
Listening to Xiong Yusheng's words, Jiang Yu smiled and said:
"What did Mr. Xiong say, just a few shortbreads, and what kind of money are you talking about?"
"If you don't take the money, then I won't go over and get the shortbread."
On the phone, Xiong Yusheng was silent for a moment, and then continued,
"Once or twice is nothing, how can I be embarrassed to eat and drink your stuff for nothing every time? You open a canteen, not a good hall. ”
"Teacher Xiong, I don't have many shortbreads here, so you better hurry over first."
Jiang Yu couldn't help but laugh and said to him,
"If you don't come back, you can't blame me for the shortbread is gone."
"Okay, okay, then I'll come over now!"
When Xiong Yusheng heard this, he suddenly panicked, if he couldn't get the shortbread, and when he returned home from work, he would not be killed by his daughter, and he felt his scalp tingle when he thought about it.
After a pause, he added,
"But let's say okay, just pay the price at your cafeteria window!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yu couldn't help but smile and shook his head, this teacher Xiong is quite principled.
With a long breath, he got up from his chair and prepared to go for some breakfast.
In addition to the four boxes booked in advance at noon today, Duan Yiming also asked for a box, and he had to go upstairs to prepare the meals in the five boxes.
……
Jiangzhou High-tech Pioneer Park, in a spacious and clean office.
"Mr. He, although our company is a little smaller, its strength is still very good."
Duan Yiming sat behind the large desk, with a smile on his face, and talked eloquently to a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa,
"In our company's R&D team, there is one doctor, five masters, and the rest are all graduates from top domestic universities such as Beijing University, Shuimu, and Huaxia University of Science and Technology.
Of course, this talent, compared with other large companies, is not worth a bit, but there is a good saying, employing people is not too much.
As long as it is used well, a few people can make a big career; If it is not used well, a group of people will not be able to achieve any outstanding results. ”
After a pause, he raised his finger and pointed to the various awards and trophies placed in the locker behind him, and added with a smile,
"Mr. He, you see, although our company has only been established for three or four years, it has already achieved good results, especially compared with companies of the same type and scale, we are definitely in the first echelon of companies."
Sitting across from him is Mr. He, 45 years old, graduated from Shuimu University with a major in software engineering, and is a practitioner with work experience in a number of major Internet companies.
But some unfortunately, He Zhengyu had a serious illness last year, and it took more than half a year to treat the disease and regulate the body.
He Zhengyu, who has worked for decades and has never been a "bastard", naturally does not want to be a "bastard" again in his forties, so he resigned from his original unit.
After resigning, He Zhengyu actually didn't think much about looking for a job, in fact, after so many years of software development, he can be regarded as a small net worth, even if he doesn't go to work, the savings he saved before are enough for him to live comfortably for a lifetime.
However, Duan Yiming didn't know where to get his news, and invited him several times, hoping to invite He Zhengyu to the company to "sit down".
Why does Duan Yiming value He Zhengyu so much?
Just because the other party worked until he was 45 years old after graduating from university, and he has been conscientiously writing code, a "technical maniac" like He Zhengyu is able to undertake the enterprise tasks of "filling in pits and clearing mines" and "opening up wasteland".
And people like this, none of the doctors and masters in Duan Yiming's company!
If He Zhengyu can join their company, not to mention what kind of achievements he can achieve, at least in terms of the company's technical strength, it is a big step!
It is precisely because of this that Duan Yiming is looking at He Zhengyu now, just like a weasel seeing a chicken, his saliva is about to flow out, he is really thirsty for talent!
"Mr. Duan, your company is really good, it can be called a typical small but refined company."
He Zhengyu was wearing a casual suit, and the whole person looked very elegant, the most important thing is that he had been a programmed ape for more than 20 years, not only was he bald, but his hair was black and bright, and Duan Yiming on the opposite side couldn't help but feel a little envious.
He smiled at Duan Yiming and continued,
"Before you came to the company, I also visited around under the leadership of the front desk lady and found that the working atmosphere in the company was also very good, which shows that Duan is always a good boss who cares about the mental state of his subordinates.
Truth be told, though, I really don't have any plans to continue working in software development at the moment.
You also know that our program ape eats the rice of youth, but I am already 45 years old, and I have no youth for a long time. ”
"Mr. He is too modest, let's not talk about anything else, just your rich work experience and profound technical skills accumulated in the past 20 years, it is a huge wealth, if you really don't do this business, it will be a pity."
Of course, Duan Yiming couldn't give up so easily, he continued,
"Mr. He, do you think this will work? I don't ask you to lead the team to tackle tough problems or anything, you are only responsible for technical guidance and pointing out the R&D personnel in our company for me.
As long as you are willing to join our company, the salary or something will never be less than what you get in a first-line factory!
What do you think? ”
To be honest, Duan Yiming has made a lot of money, and the salary of a small company like them is definitely not as good as that of a first-tier Internet company.
Because the annual profit is not comparable to others, and now employees have to pay the same salary as the first-line factory, even if they will not lose money, the company's profits will shrink significantly.
And this is just to keep He Zhengyu and let him become the company's technical director.
"W-how?"
When He Zhengyu heard this, he was also taken aback, and shook his head again and again to refuse,
"Mr. Duan really thinks so highly of me, how can I be as important as you say?"
After a pause, he continued,
"Besides, you yourself are also in the industry, and you should not be clear, our industry is developing too fast, if you can't keep up with the speed of knowledge update, no matter how powerful the 'big bull' will be eliminated.
My previous decades of work experience and technical skills, to put it bluntly, are expired things, and they are not worth much money at all. ”
"Why should Mr. He be humble?"
Duan Yiming has rarely changed his mind about the things he believes, let alone recruiting "big bulls", if he doesn't understand it clearly, he won't act rashly at all.
Don't listen to He Zhengyu say that he is so worthless, it's just that he hasn't looked at Duan Yiming's company yet.
He smiled and continued,
"I heard that Mr. He has conducted very in-depth research in the field of software application development for drones.
And this is precisely the next focus of our company's research, and in fact, we are already working on it.
If Mr. He can join in, I believe that we will definitely be at the forefront of all companies in the field of UAV software application development. ”
After a pause, he added,
"If Mr. He is willing to join our company, I can hand over the entire R&D team to you to lead, the position is deputy general manager and R&D director, and I can even give Mr. He 5% of the company's shares in the direction of technology shares!"
This condition, then it is not just a big deal, this is simply a hemorrhage!
You must know that Duan Yiming's company has not yet been listed, he owns 100% of the company's equity, and taking out 5% of the dry shares is equivalent to "cutting meat" on him!
This "meat" has been cut, can there still be no "blood"?
Of course, this is also Duan Yiming's greatest sincerity, if the other party still disagrees, then he can only give up.
He Zhengyu was obviously also shocked by this condition, he was stunned for a long time, and then shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"I am so grateful to Mr. Duan for his attention and love.
But to be honest, my body needs to recuperate for a while, and if I really plan to continue working in software development at that time, I will definitely give priority to your company. ”
As soon as Duan Yiming heard this, he understood that although he was willing to "cut meat", people obviously looked down on his small company.
Saying that his body needs to recuperate is just a pretext, as long as he has a brain, he can understand the meaning of this sentence.
However, regret is regret, and Duan Yiming has nothing to complain about.
People have been wandering around in several first-line Internet companies, and they are not ordinary program apes, and they have held positions such as technical department directors and R&D directors, and they can't look down on themselves as a small company with only a dozen R&D personnel, which is too normal.
"That's okay, Mr. He will take good care of his body first, after all, the body is the capital of the revolution!"
Thinking of this, he laughed, said quite generously, and then said with a smile,
"It's almost noon time for dinner, Mr. He came all the way here, how can I do my best to be a landlord, today, I will take Mr. He to a good place!"
When He Zhengyu heard this, he quickly stood up from his seat and said politely:
"Ah......h Mr. Duan, you are so busy, you don't have to bother, right? ”
"What's the trouble not to bother, no matter how busy I am at work, I have to eat!"
Duan Yiming laughed out loud and said to him,
"Mr. He, you really don't have to be polite, it's just a meal, you wait a minute, I'll call two friends to accompany you!"
When He Zhengyu heard him say this, he couldn't say anything more.
What Mr. Duan said is right, anyway, it's just a meal, could it be that after he eats this meal, Mr. Duan can still force him to stay in the company?
Just think about it, you know it's impossible!
So, He Zhengyu sat down with peace of mind and looked around at this small company that had just been established for three or four years.
Indeed, as Duan Yiming thought, he didn't want to mix in such a small company, he still hoped to enter a big factory and make some achievements.
Otherwise, he might as well not do it.
As for money, he has been working in a major Internet company for more than 20 years, is he still short of money?
He was thinking about this in his heart, Duan Yiming had already finished the call, raised his head and glanced at him, and greeted with a smile:
"Mr. He, let's go downstairs, my two friends have already gone in advance."
With that, he got up and walked out from behind his desk with a bag.
Seeing this, He Zhengyu also quickly stood up, and the two pushed each other out of the door, and then went straight downstairs.
After the two of them got into the car, Duan Yiming drove out of the Pioneer Park slowly and rushed all the way to Jiangzhou University.
He Zhengyu originally thought that since Duan Yiming wanted to invite himself to dinner, there was a high probability that he would go back to the city, in that case, he would save the car when he went home.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as the car came out of the door of the Pioneer Park, it was actually driving in the opposite direction of the city, and after driving for a while, the more desolate it became.
This is He Zhengyu, if it was a young girl, I am afraid that she would have panicked a long time ago, shouting and shouting for Duan Yiming to "stop".
Who knows if you're going to pull yourself into a ravine and sell it?
"Mr. He, the place we are going to now is the university park in Jiangzhou, and the new campus of Jiangzhou University is there."
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of He Zhengyu sitting on a chair with a serious face, Duan Yiming was driving the car while smiling and looking for something to talk about, he said,
"You have also seen that the entrepreneurship park is actually next door to the university park, and for the company, the college students in this college park are all reserve technical talents!
I've already started the plan now, and when the company grows a little bigger, we will use Jiangzhou University as a base to absorb outstanding students majoring in software development from all universities in the university park.
At that time, the company will regularly hold entrepreneurship competitions, software development competitions and other activities in various universities, and then hire graduates with excellent performance with preferential treatment. ”
"Mr. Duan really has ideas and courage."
After He Zhengyu heard Duan Yiming's introduction, he turned his head to look at him in some surprise, nodded and said,
In this way, it can not only absorb fresh blood for the company, but also maintain the company's vigorous vitality.
The most important thing is that although it takes a little more time to train novices by yourself, the fit with the company is obviously much stronger than that of employees recruited halfway. ”
"That's the truth." Duan Yiming nodded with a smile.
The two chatted all the way, and after a while, the car arrived at the gate of Jiangzhou University.
Duan Yiming saw a white car parked next to the gate at a glance, and He Xiaowei was leaning his back against the door, squinting his eyes and spitting clouds there.
The steering wheel in his hand turned, drove the car over, rolled down the window, and shouted at He Xiaowei:
"Xiaowei, don't stand stupidly, let's go in."
"Oh, here we are."
When He Xiaowei saw Duan Yiming coming, he quickly took two puffs of the cigarette in his hand, then threw it to the ground, raised his foot to extinguish the cigarette butt, and hurriedly got into the car and followed.
It was almost twelve o'clock at noon, and the seven canteens had already begun to open, and the canteen hall on the first floor was crowded and lively.
A long line passed through the gate from the inside of the cafeteria to the far outside.
Looking at the scene in front of him, He Zhengyu, who had just gotten out of the car, was stunned:
This, this is a student cafeteria?
Mr. Duan said that he would bring himself to a good place to eat, could it be here?
Could it be that he wants me to reminisce about my college days?
He was stunned, Duan Yiming walked over and explained to him with a smile:
"Mr. He, is it unexpected? This student cafeteria is doing a booming business, right?
In fact, on the second floor of this canteen, there is still a hidden restaurant, and the food in it is really delicious! ”
"Oh, oh, yes?"
He Zhengyu came to his senses from his confusion, smiled a little uncomfortably and said,
"I really didn't expect that there would be a restaurant on the upper floor of the student cafeteria, and this owner seems to be unusual."
"It's really unusual, you'll know in a moment."
Duan Yiming smiled, raised his hand and pointed at Deng Linhui and He Xiaowei who had just come over, and introduced to him,
"These two are my friends, this is Deng Linhui, this is He Xiaowei.
Deng Linhui's company is also in the entrepreneurial park, not far from my company, and his company is mainly engaged in network security and big data services. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Deng Linhui and He Xiaowei again, and said with a smile,
"This is Mr. He Zhengyu He, a senior software engineer, whom I often mentioned to you before."
After a few people exchanged a few words of greeting, seeing that the time was almost up, Duan Yiming led everyone into the seventh canteen, and after passing through the crowded canteen dining area, he went straight up the stairs to the second floor.
After sitting down in the "Xia" box, Duan Yiming said to He Zhengyu with a smile:
"Mr. He, this restaurant does not accept individual customers, all private rooms can only be booked in advance, and the dishes are all pre-ordered in advance, of course, if you have anything you want to eat, you can also order it now.
By the way, does Mr. Ho want to drink anything? It's rare for us to have a meal together and drink a little wine to help out the fun. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I eat very casually, and I'm not a picky eater."
When He Zhengyu heard this, he waved his hand again and again, and said apologetically,
"As for the wine, I still don't drink it, my body has just improved, and the doctor has repeatedly told me not to touch the wine, I'm really sorry."
Duan Yiming smiled at him and said, "Since that's the case, then don't drink, let's drink some homemade drinks in the restaurant." ”
Before a few people could talk a few words, the waiter began to serve the food.
Although He Zhengyu was born in Jiangzhou, he actually grew up, worked and lived in Guangzhou, and his taste is completely different from that of Jiangzhou, a heavy oil addict.
Cantonese cuisine pays attention to quality and taste, the taste is relatively light, and strives to be fresh in the clear, and the beauty in the light, and changes with the change of the season, summer and autumn are more light, winter and spring are more intense, and the pursuit of color, fragrance, taste, and type.
Duan Yiming already knew this before, so when he decided to invite He Zhengyu to dinner, he specially ordered a table of Cantonese specialties.
Now, the first dish served by the waiter is the traditional famous dish of Cantonese Lao Huo Soup.
Drinking soup first and then eating is the traditional habit of Cantonese people.
Traditionally, soup is also a "compulsory course" for Cantonese housewives, many of whom have their own unique recipes for making soup, and choosing the right soup is crucial when entertaining friends and family.
And when eating in Cantonese restaurants, the waiter usually recommends the soup first, and then introduces other dishes.
When the waiter brought the old fire soup and carefully placed it in front of everyone, the look on He Zhengyu's face couldn't help but be slightly moved.
It is no secret that he is from Cantonese, but when he was able to invite guests to dinner, he also deliberately took care of his eating habits as a Cantonese person, and specially served an old fire soup first......
Mr. Duan is really too hearty!
