Chapter One Hundred and Five
No matter how much you crave, you can't turn back time. So people learn to remember, even if recollection is the only futile attempt to slow down time, and when you stop remembering, time does run faster.
Another midsummer, knowing the wild roar, wildflowers blooming, devoting themselves to learning, the Dongguan people at work have no time to take care of the secret blooming Dongguan fragrant flowers. Every summer gets hotter than the last, and people who wander the south all year round adapt to the scorching heat, and the memory of coolness slowly stays in childhood, replaced by a complete dependence on air conditioning. For the people at TMK, the company is the best place to escape the summer. He was surrounded by peers who worked overtime day and night, in and out of the same day, repeating the mechanical work day after day, gradually seeing himself as a station on the production line, and therefore as if he had lost his feelings, he secretly hid the love of his children and daughters, thinking that "loneliness" was the painless moan of the youngest Bourgeois. The life of three points and one line allows everyone to tightly integrate into the gears of industry, becoming one of the teeth, a wheel, and crushing each other with the people around them.
After nearly a year of enjoying the huge flood dividends, production gradually returned to normal, and when the engineers could finally catch their breath, they realized that they had just created a myth, and now that there was no need for heroes, the reality began to get brutal again. A new round of layoffs is in the pipeline. Perhaps the last layoff was too large and concentrated, and the blow to everyone was more direct, making people ignore that the layoffs have not stopped. Almost every month, there are sporadic employee departures, secretive, low-key. This kind of layoff is a new way for the company to carry out after the last large-scale layoff, summarizing the adverse social reactions and employee sentiments. When you spend a lot of time in a closed and isolated environment, you start to be indifferent to a lot of things, including your sister at the next desk, the smoker in the office next door, and the familiar faces of you who take the shuttle bus to the city to shop together on the weekend, and it will take a long time for you to react after they disappear. Oh, when the hell did she or he leave? And when the huge industrial gears come at you again, you forget about the nostalgia. There's no time to stop you at all.
Manager Miao is back, and the amazing thing is that she is not like other young mothers who are obese because of pregnancy, excessive nutrition supplementation and pregnancy reaction, but she maintains her original bumpy devil figure. Even due to postpartum hormones, her plumpness is exacerbated. Ah Dong is not in Dongguan, and the man he has attracted as always is salivating. While she copes with the heavy work every day, she still remembers the baby son who is accompanied by the nanny at home. And Liang Kuo's frequent appearance in her office made her extremely annoyed. Without the protection of the smart and clever Chen Si, he is often at a loss. At first, she couldn't even spare time to call Chen Si, but later found that the phone could no longer be connected. She hired another young girl who had just graduated, but she couldn't find the intelligence and diligence of her predecessor. Sora has a delicate face, and the ruthless arrogance it brings. After the probationary period, I haven't figured out what this girl's specialty is, and I can't even remember her English name, Nancy.
Liang Kuo didn't know whether to come to see Nancy or himself, and appeared in his office with nothing to do and brazenly appeared in his office at a high frequency. After a few teases, he was always cold-eyed, and he was not interested, but there were some scoundrels who became more and more frustrated. In addition to ignoring as always, he is more familiar with the use of Nancy as a shield. It wasn't until he saw that Chu Li's name was actually in a very conspicuous layoff proposal, that she was in a hurry and hurriedly called Sun Ning, who was completely unaware, her tone was full of incomprehension, hung up the phone, and ran directly to Miaoyan's office.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know." Sun Ning's result witty words printed email. There's nothing in it.
"He didn't mention it to you, not even hinting at it?"
"Not at all, I'm going to talk to him."
"No, I'll go. You don't know about it. He did this against the rules, and theoretically he should have asked for your opinion and you agreed before he gave you the list of redundant employees. Of course he has the right to skip you, but it doesn't follow the rules. ”
"But Chu Li is not at fault at all, I don't understand why he always can't get along with him."
Wonderful words are ready to be said and stopped. Thinking that this old thief is lustful and greedy for money, Chu Li must have ruined him or something else, so let's settle the old accounts together. The person who should leave the most is Liang Kuo, but unfortunately the last anti-corruption investigation did not catch any evidence.
"Don't tell Chu Li about this, what if Liang Kuo just proposed? Chu Li knew that as soon as the platform was lifted, it was really going to be done. I'll talk to Liang Kuo first. ”
Miao Yan asked Liang Kuo to go to the only high-end café in Shangsha, and from the moment Liang Kuo entered the door, she could see his undisguised obscene thoughts, from the obscene gaze that all unrighteous gentlemen and gentlemen shared.
"I see you mentioned Chu Li." Wonderful words get straight to the point.
"Yes, this person doesn't want to be motivated."
"How?"
"I see you asked me to come just because of him?" Liang Kuo cocked Erlang's legs, "I thought there was something else." ”
"Mr. Liang, we have known each other for so many years, and everything has always been straightforward."
"Okay, then go straight to it." Liang Kuo deliberately aggravated the straightness of the straight. "All my training, studying, he doesn't attend. Isn't this confusing? ”
Miao Yan sneered, the studies he and Linda engaged in not to mention the miasma of the company, and forced away a lot of conscientious and honest people. "Learning should be spontaneous, and with so much work these days, are you sure everyone has to make it compulsory? I have received several complaints, and when I change jobs, I always run to gather to learn, have meetings, and expand. I haven't talked to you about this yet. “
"When?" Liang Kuo pushed the frame of his glasses.
Seeing Liang Kuo who was interested, Miao Yan knew that it had caught his attention. "This matter is being assessed by people in Hong Kong and I, and if it affects production, there will be an official document issued to ban certain learning courses. We noticed that technicians are learning management, managers are learning quality assessment, and production departments are learning communication skills. This is not in line with the direction of our company's core business development. The Japanese are in pursuit of quality, but every kind of learning is based on the evaluation of the input-output ratio, and if there is a complaint about the quality response in the future, then the initiator of the study will be held responsible. Of course, Linda is gone, and now that the promoter has left the company, she doesn't need to bear any responsibility. Witty Yan was halfway through the sentence, deliberately saying that the initiator was Linda alone, and that he had been expelled, so the matter was settled. Liang Kuo himself could understand what she meant.
"Learning is a good thing, both Carter and your boss are supportive."
"I didn't say that studying is a bad thing, but if we approve a budget of one million in two years, we must check the input and output together with the finance."
"Manager Miao, what you said is that the rewards of learning are long-term. It's not about what kind of project, it's about how much you return every year. “
"It's not like you don't know what's going on in the company."
"Beauty, you came to me today to admonish me? That's not interesting. “
"That's not it, old friends catch up."
"How many months is the child?"
"I'm a year and a half old."
"Not weaned yet?" As Liang Kuo spoke, his eyes swept over the towering chest under the Miaoyan shirt. When he sat down, he saw a bra trimmed with black lace trim in his shirt.
"I've already eaten milk powder."
"Oh, that's a shame."
After a burst of nausea like swallowing a fly by mistake, Miao Yan quickly lowered his head and took a sip of coffee. He smiled and said, "Stay in shape." “
Liang Kuo didn't mention Chu Li's matter again, and after he went back, Miaoyan emailed back to Liang Kuo, saying that he hoped to carefully consider the layoff decision. Liang Kuo did not reply. Just a week later, I asked Manager Miao to dinner. But she refused. There are many ways to help Chu Li, and being coerced has never been her style. Fortunately, Liang Kuo didn't seem to have any more calculations about Chu Li. And the learning activities are still in full swing, which can be regarded as a balance. Liang Kuo is right, the return on "learning" cannot be quantified, and the finance will not really track down the budget of one million approved in those two years.
