Working in the headquarters for a week, Yin Jie really felt the "rigorous, united, and contractual spirit" of the people of S country.

First of all, let's talk about rigor, from the beginning of working for LS, Yin Jie has experienced the rigor of the people of S. In her first work report to Marcus, she gave a rough estimate of the prospects for the promotion of LS's work in China. A week later, the report was returned in its original language, with the words "general", "maybe", "probably" highlighted by Mr. Marcus in color, and then honestly asked, "What we need is a prediction backed up by data." ”

Yin Jie made a big red face at that time. Fortunately, Marcus sent the email directly to her, without CC to Erdmann or Ning Haoran. But this incident was enough to make her cautious, and she has been conscientious in her subsequent work, paying special attention to the authenticity of the data, and implementing the word "rigorous" thoroughly.

Regarding unity, one thing Yin Jie observed during this week was very typical. TH adopts an open working hall model, except for 2-3 senior managers such as Erdmann and Marcus, who have their own independent offices, and all the rest of the people work in the hall. Therefore, the communication and coordination between colleagues can usually be clearly seen and understood in the public. After at least two days of work, Yin Jie discovered that the relationship between Christoph from the LS team and Stephen from the environmental team was very problematic. Christoph, who is usually warm and smiling, tends to be more serious when facing Stephen, and the two have very little direct communication, and even if they do, they are as concise and efficient as possible. Because Yin Jie and Stephen have no work cooperation, and there is no communication in private, they don't know much about his situation. However, she could see that Stephen had done everything she could to avoid talking to Christoph, not blinking her eyes even when she had to pass by......

However, these two people actually attended a customer meeting together on Thursday morning! The two of them met at a table before the meeting and had a particularly close discussion! When the government officials from Sullick walked into the company, Christoph and Stephen greeted them warmly and walked into the conference room together! Although she couldn't hear the sound, through the large window of the conference room, Yin Jie in the office could also see that there had been some disputes between the two sides in the meeting, but she found that the tacit cooperation between the two people in the face of the guests was perfect!

Later, on the way out to visit the company with Marco, Yin Jie cautiously mentioned the matter, and Marco smiled:

"The relationship between the two of them is not good, and they don't like each other. And next year Erdmann will pick one of them to be the head of government relations. You know, these two guys are brilliant but they don't play each other, and Erdmann has had a headache for a long time. He laughed merrily.

Yin Jie asked again: "Yesterday, I saw the two of them having a meeting with customers together, and it seems that they have a tacit understanding." ”

"Of course. Work is work, life is life. There is no Christoph or Stephen when it comes to clients, only TH. They are all TH people, and it stands to reason that they must be united to the outside world. This is our rule here, and it is one of the important factors for us to measure professionalism here. Yin Jie admired in his heart. Marco then added:

"But you know, both of them are great, don't worry about them. It's usually fun to watch their awkwardness, isn't it?"

... ...

As for the spirit of contract, there are countless examples. Since joining the LS team, Yin Jie has felt the "stubbornness" of the people of S in terms of abiding by the contract. They are well organized, and once they promise you, they will definitely do a good job, but if they can't agree due to some circumstances, they will politely refuse, and there is no room for accommodation. This is the reason why Yin Jie is obsessed with Barzel.

If you can't do it, don't promise to help. If you promised yourself, why did you become a demon?

However, as she realizes as she reflects:

If Barzel is a person who keeps his promises and oaths, he will definitely refuse Yin Jie's proposal, since he didn't refuse, it means that he doesn't follow the rules, so how can he be a person with the spirit of contract?

Of course, not everyone in country S is born with the spirit of contract, their education from childhood tells them to be trustworthy, and when they become adults, the national law sets severe punishment clauses for non-compliance with the contract, which increases the cost of breach of contract, so people have to abide by it. From this point of view, country S is indeed a good place to set up a core organization to manage regional operations. When Chinese companies come here, they can not only recruit highly international talent, but also focus on their business in this honest and trustworthy environment.

Yin Jie has benefited a lot from this week's work, not only has she become more confident in the reception work, but also deepened her understanding of Haosen Prefecture, which will help her a lot in her future work.

... ...

At four o'clock on Friday, the company has not yet left work, and the stage has begun to be set up in the municipal square at the entrance. There's going to be a weekend concert here tonight.

On the way back to his home after a day's work, Yin Jie was in a good mood and took a detour to the largest local supermarket in a neighborhood that he rarely passes by, planning to prepare a small and practical gift for the newly arrived entrepreneurs when he picks up the airport the day after tomorrow. As soon as she walked to the door of the supermarket, the silence in the air was shattered by the sudden sound of music. Yin Jie stopped to look and found that six cute and innocent girls had lined up in the middle of the street. Dressed in pink vests and bright yellow skirts, they began to dance after a short opening remark. It seems that this is still a group of junior high school children, with a little cute little freckles on their faces. Several of them looked nervous and moved a little stiffly. However, as more and more people stopped and gathered here, the crowd of onlookers after each appearance of the children did not hesitate to applaud loudly. The tension in their expressions gradually melted, their smiles gradually flew, and their movements became more and more fluid.

The girls danced a total of three dances. When the music stopped, there was another round of applause. Several children couldn't suppress the smiles on the corners of their mouths, and their fingers flicked the hem of their skirts and curtsied.

Yin Jie also applauded enthusiastically with everyone, and when one of the girls looked over, she gave the girl a thumbs up, and the girl grinned.

She took several photos, and after the crowd dispersed, she logged on WeChat and posted them to the friend group.

After dinner, she uncharacteristically wandered around the old town.

The old town of Hausen retains a strong medieval style. The houses in the old town are mostly yellow, white, and gray, and the gray ones are usually made of gray marble for some important public buildings, such as banks, etc. The yellow and white houses are almost entirely clad in limestone from nearby hills, and the roofs are red with pointed upward protrusions. The yellow or white exterior walls and red roofs are bright colors that add a golden afterglow to the sunset, which is particularly soft and beautiful. Many of the buildings here, especially on the main street, have distinctive round or square convex terraces, on which are carved with various patterns of classical characteristics, which is the characteristic "belly window" of the canton of Hausen. Most of the buildings are painted on the facades, with the "Knight's House" being the most beautifully painted. Built for a famous knight of the 16th century, the façade is painted with frescoes by the famous local painter Houghtiman, with themes from mythology and Roman history, with an emphasis on the "virtue" that was revered at the time. This kind of mural is painted by a special process, which is very durable, the pigment does not fall off with time, and it does not fade easily.

The old town is quiet and peaceful on weekdays, but it is very lively on weekends. Restaurants on several main streets were already full. With the evening breeze, Haosen people are accustomed to enjoying delicious food and wine with family and friends, so as to end a hard week. The stage on the Municipal Square has been set up and is being tuned. You can imagine how passionate the night will be tonight with music and enthusiasm.

Yin Jie strolled through the old city and unconsciously came to the lake.

This is actually a section of the Rhine. It is called the "lake" mainly because this small stretch of the Rhine is as peaceful, tranquil and vast as the lake. Downstream from here, the Rhine becomes more and more agitated. As a result, thousands of years ago, ships traveling from the Rhine had to unload their cargo here as a terminus and load their tanks north. Over time, the highly developed trade led to the region's prosperity, which eventually led to the formation of the later Hausen.

Yin Jie slowly returned to his residence along the street. Halfway through, I found an old woman wearing a polka-dot skirt and a red sweater selling strawberries. The strawberries in the frame are large, full-grained, bright red and watery, with small jagged round leaves, which look particularly festive. Yin Jie stepped forward to buy a pound and talked with his grandmother. The smiling grandmother's gray hair was neatly combed, and she wore a pair of glasses with a high degree on the bridge of her nose. She told Yin Jie that these were all strawberries grown by her own family, and they were specially picked today to reward the people who got off work on Friday. She described that there is still a large field of strawberries in her garden that are ripe, and if Yin Jie likes the taste, please come back tomorrow morning, and she will take her granddaughter to the "weekend market" tomorrow to set up a stall to sell strawberries.

Yin Jie returned to his residence with strawberries wrapped tightly in paper bags in both hands. After a little washing, pick one up and put it in your mouth. Sweet in one bite.

Excellent!
