Li Mai seriously looked at the girl in front of him with a shocked expression, and Hao Hao also looked at the girl in front of him with an equally shocked expression.

The girl smiled awkwardly, revealing two small dimples, and bowed her head shyly.

Li Mai and Hao Hao glanced at each other, both a little dizzy.

After a while, Li Mai came to his senses and said, "Xiaoxue, why are you here?"

It turned out that the fifth blind date partner was actually Xiao Xue, the senior secretary of the secretariat of the chairman of the gun regiment construction group! That is, a member of Li Mai's secretary team led by Pei Xiaoshuai!

"Sister Xiaoxue, are you in the wrong place?" Hao Hao picked up his hand, put it on the table, and asked.

Li Mai glared at Haohao.

Xiaoxue glanced at Li Mai shyly, then at Hao Hao, and said, "Brother Hao, I didn't go to the wrong place. Then he looked at Li Mai again and said shyly, "At first, the marriage consultant said that the blind date was called Li Mai, but I thought it was the same name, and the information didn't match anything." I didn't expect it to be you, Mr. Li. Mr. Li, I'm sorry. ”

He lowered his head as he spoke.

Li Mai smiled helplessly and said, "I said that you are a little girl and a student, what kind of blind date do you have?" It's not good to start working and be in such a hurry to get married. Young people should try more of all kinds of beauty, marriage is a lifelong thing, and it is good to talk about it seriously. Blind dates are not very reliable after all. You're far from the age where you need to use a blind date to solve the big problem of marriage!"

As he spoke, he habitually waved his hand, as if he was giving a lecture to his subordinates.

Indeed, seeing that it was Xiaoxue, Li Mai unconsciously entered the original role.

Xiaoxue lowered her head and didn't dare to speak. What kind of person is Mr. Li, the big boss of the group, usually those executives are silent when they see him, and his little secretary is even more afraid to come out. Fortunately, now that she is not in the company, and in such an environment, she is not very nervous.

Li Mai didn't know what to say, looking at Xiaoxue, Haohao also looked at Xiaoxue.

Slowly, Li Mai discovered that Xiaoxue was actually quite beautiful. The little girl has a lovely face, the two small dimples are particularly eye-catching, the face of the little powder is flushed, the hair is not rendered in any way, the black is neat, the little girl's figure is not amazing, but there is also a weight. The staff of the secretariat are carefully selected, and as employees who are ready to go out with the big boss for business activities, the image represents the image of the company.

Hao Hao looked at it for a long time, turned his head to look at Li Mai, Li Mai also looked over, and the father and son looked at each other.

Hao Hao said, "Actually, Sister Xiaoxue is quite beautiful, have you noticed?"

Li Mai nodded and said very seriously, "Well, you're right. ”

Xiaoxue's face suddenly turned red, she raised her head cautiously, looked at Li Mai and Haohao, and became more and more shy.

Suddenly coming back to his senses, Li Mai smiled, and thought to himself, you can't tease the female staff of your subordinates like this, if this spreads, it will be a joke of the whole group.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Li Mai casually pulled up a topic and asked, "Xiaoxue, I saw that you are a platinum member on your profile, why did you get a platinum member as soon as you were a little girl who just joined the work?"

Speaking of this question, Xiaoxue became serious, raised her head and said, "I am eligible." ”

"What qualifies you for that little salary? Li Mai said.

"Ugh. Xiaoxue was embarrassed for a moment, but she was used to the way the big boss spoke, so she didn't take it to heart, she said, "Mr. Li, my salary is super high in Nangang under the same conditions." ”

Li Mai was slightly surprised, "Oh, how much money can you get a month now?" ”

Xiaoxue was embarrassed again, and thought, aren't you the boss, don't you know how much money you pay me? After thinking about it, she suddenly came to her senses, not to mention a small employee like herself, even if the salary of an executive is geometric, the big boss may not be clear. If the big boss knows all these trivial things, he will be tired to death.

"Mr. Li, the company now gives me a basic salary of 8,000 yuan every month, plus other subsidies or something, I can get more than 12,000 yuan, as well as provident fund medical insurance or something, if you add them, it is actually nearly 17,000. Xiaoxue lowered her head and looked at Li Mai carefully, "This salary level is the level of middle management in other companies, and it has to be a company with good benefits." ”

Li Mai's expression did not change and looked at Xiaoxue. In fact, he had no idea about it. When the company was first established, he personally formulated the salary standard, which was based on the standard of similar enterprises multiplied by two. However, at that time, the seemingly simple salary scale was aimed at the old people at that time. Nowadays, almost all the old people at that time have become executives, and the complete salary system is also set by a dedicated team according to his guiding spirit. He didn't know the specific salary standard.

Xiaoxue probably guessed this, so she said, "I became a quasi-gold collar less than half a year after graduation, and my classmates are very envious." So I would like to thank you, Mr. Li, for the opportunity. ”

Li Mai learned from Ji Rui that the basic requirement for platinum members of Yuelao Marriage Network is a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan, so he asked.

Hearing Xue say this, Li Mai smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Then it depends on you." You are the first batch of college students recruited by the company, and you can now take a look at this group of people who have joined the company with you. After a period of time, whether the gap has widened, hehe, the key is to rely on your own efforts. ”

Xiaoxue nodded heavily, "Mr. Li, I will work harder." ”

Nodding, Li Mai turned the topic back, "Xiaoxue, you are only twenty-four years old, why are you in such a hurry to get married?"

After saying so many words, Xiaoxue's nervous feelings slowly disappeared, and she said distressedly, "It's not the family urging yet." My mother said that women are too good to earn money and it is difficult to get married. So she asked me to take advantage of the fact that my current income is not outrageous, and I should hurry up and find someone to marry. said that if I had an annual salary of one million in the future, no man would dare to marry me. ”

Li Mai was stunned and smiled, "This logic ...... Invincible. ”

Xiaoxue smiled awkwardly and said helplessly, "I thought so at first. Later, I **** me to sign up, so I paid the money to become a gold card member. I saw a lot of them on and off this month, and I realized that what my mother said was not unreasonable. ”

Saying that, Xiao Xuete said depressedly, "Mr. Li, do you know, as soon as I heard that my monthly salary was over 10,000 yuan, several people ran away after throwing away the words." I wondered, is it a bad thing to be able to make money? After thinking about it carefully, I also understood a little. Men, they don't want their wives to earn more money than themselves. At the end of the day, it's machismo that's at work. Uh, Mr. Li, I'm not saying you're ......"

"Haha!" Li Mai waved his hand and smiled, "According to what you say, I gave you a high salary, but it has become an obstacle for you to fall in love." ”

"Uh......" Xiaoxue smiled awkwardly, "Actually, that's true." My ex-boyfriend is now working in a listed company, a Fortune 500 company, but he only earns more than 4,000 yuan a month...... Not a fraction of mine. hasn't broken up yet, I'm just thinking about having money, let's be willful, buy something good and eat something good. I didn't intend to make him pay for it at all, I was thinking that I would pay for it. As a result, he thought I was spending a lot of money, and when he found out about my income, he felt uncomfortable, felt hit, and had low self-esteem. He didn't say it, but I could see it. Mr. Li, I really can't understand it. Doesn't it say that men and women are equal, why can't women pay the bill, why can't women make money......?

Li Maidu is so petrified, is it that the secretaries of his own secretariat are so able to say this, and the logic is quite rigorous in one breath, and the subjective analysis of causes and consequences raises questions.

"Uh, this...... It's a social problem, and it needs many people to study it as a discipline......" Li Mai groaned, and slowly entered into thinking, and the more he came into contact, the more profound his understanding became. Especially in the past few days of blind date, the more I understand, the more I feel.

"Patrilineal societies have predictably coexisted on a large scale for quite some time. Li Mai said in a deep voice, "Of course, there are many places in our country where women's social status is generally higher than that of men, but there are exceptions. Traditionally, a woman should have a husband and children. Even after so many years of evolution, this concept still has a large market. But that's changing. Because there are certain characteristics of modern society that limit women to be more successful than men. There are countless examples of this. ”

After a pause, Li Mai continued, "Your doubts are actually very understandable - men are born to think that they are strong, and this concept can even be said to be congenital. If he suddenly discovers that you, as his girlfriend, are much, much better than him - his salary is not a fraction of yours. The blow is very severe and sometimes fatal. ”

Xiaoxue shook her head and said, "I still can't understand it. As for money, mine, his, and not all of them are the same when they get married, and they all have to pay for the family. ”

Li Mai smiled slightly, like an elder, and explained Xiaoxue, "It's a little bit that you despise - a man's self-esteem." A man's self-esteem will be so strong that it ruins a country. There are many such examples in history. So, don't take this lightly. In the same way, a woman's self-esteem is strong, but it is also as intimidating as a nuclear weapon. ”

Waving his hand, Li Mai said, "In the final analysis, it is you who are different from his ideas and concepts of life. I think you usually have contradictions about life, and you all have your own opinions. In love, reconciliation can still be maintained, and if there is a crack, those contradictions will drill out along the crack, and then the crack will expand. A quarrel then arises, and if it develops, it is a parting of the ways. ”

Xiaoxue's expression was complicated, both stunned and contemplative and admired, and she said slowly after a long time: "Mr. Li, it seems that I really can't do without a blind date." Aside from blind dates, I don't think there is much opportunity to get a comprehensive understanding of the most important aspects of each other's lives in a short period of time. ”

Li Mai smiled and said, "Actually, there are a lot of excellent young men in our company, why don't you try to find them from the side." Our company does not prohibit office romances. Hehe, maybe your one is waiting somewhere. ”

Xiaoxue glanced at Li Mai deeply, sighed silently helplessly, and nodded with a smile.
