Chapter 4 Chapter Three
Liu Lixin drove his own car, and finally got onto the Third Ring Road.The Third Ring Road in Beijing, if there is no accident, will be jammed no matter what time of day it is.The long flow of traffic wanders through the corridors woven by exhaust fumes and dust, like a circle of unwashed paint, entangled among tall buildings.There are many people in this city, the prices are expensive, the air is not good, and there is a shortage of water.It can be said that apart from being suitable for building a capital, it is useless.But that seems to be enough.
The car came to the meeting place and stopped on the sidewalk in front of the door under the guidance of the security guards in gray uniforms.This so-called meeting place is actually the well-known Xiyuan Hotel in Beijing.In order to hold a grand event, Yuanhong Group has booked most of the hotel today and tomorrow.Now a few steps away from the door, there is a nondescript guide and security guard in a black suit and white gloves.Yang Mingfeng saw Liu Lixin waving to these "Yakuza-gumi" members from time to time, and when he met a tall, round and fat man, he stopped to chat for a few words, so he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.After entering the hotel lobby with a large banner, Zhu Huixin curled her lips and said disdainfully: "These people in the security department are all dressed up like they are, no matter how they look, they don't look like serious people. It seems that we are such a big group. The quality is too low."
Yang Mingfeng also felt quite the same, he just wanted to follow the pole, and followed Master Zhu to offer a few words of advice.However, after observing that Liu Lixin laughed noncommittally like the last time he heard Zhu Huixin joke about the Personnel Department, he felt a little bit clearer.This guy is really "oily", and he refuses to express his point of view easily.Well, in the office, you have to be careful what you say in the future!
The three of them ran directly to the registration desk under the banner.Behind the long table covered with scarlet gold velvet tablecloth, three groups of people crowded around bustlingly. Judging from the clothes, some were neat and elegant, and they looked like they came from a big city; It is a distinguished guest from a small and medium-sized city.The most eye-catching thing was a muscular uncle, with a black striped suit on top of his good Apple jeans, Yang Mingfeng couldn't help but stare at him.But Liu Lixin caught a glimpse of it, as if he saw a relative all of a sudden, he walked straight towards this baby, and patted him on the shoulder from behind.The uncle turned his head, looked down at Liu Lixin, and shook hands with him warmly like an old friend.The two passed through the crowd hand in hand, and only let go when they walked aside, Bibi Huahua warmly exchanged greetings.
Seeing Yang Mingfeng's puzzled eyes flickering, Zhu Huixin sneered and said, "Xiao Yang, despite his nouveau riche appearance, he is a supplier of important testing components on this production line. This kind of micron-scale Parts, in the whole country, the township enterprise he opened can produce, you say absolutely? We have to ask him to buy his things.”
"Hey, there are really all kinds of weird things." Yang Mingfeng laughed mischievously, and unconsciously imitated Liu Lixin's tone of criticism.Well, in this situation, he really found a sense of pride in being the master.
"Xiao Yang, wait here for Liu Lixin to come back and ask him to assign tasks to you. I'll go to my own business first." Master Zhu patted his bag, turned around, squeezed into the crowd and disappeared, leaving behind Yang Mingfeng stood there blankly.Master Zhu has always had a lukewarm attitude towards himself. Why?Is it a bad first impression of yourself, or the reserve of the old organization?Or maybe there are other concerns.Yang Mingfeng tilted his head, unable to understand.
A few minutes later, Liu Lixin waved to him from a distance with a residual smile on his face: "Come on, I'll give you a job."
Liu Lixin took Yang Mingfeng to the back of the registration desk.I saw a group of two people behind the table, there were three groups of staff, some were standing and some were sitting, with a stiff smile on their faces, they were very busy.Liu Lixin led him to one of the young men who were sitting. As soon as the young man saw Liu Lixin, he immediately stood up from the chair, wiped the sweat from his face, and said in a thick baritone voice: "Why did you come here?" There are a lot of people from the planning gate outside Beijing, and the director asked you to go there to accompany the guests."
Liu Lixin nodded and said to the young man, "I'll bring you a helper on the way," pointing to Yang Mingfeng beside him, "He is the young man from our office this year, Yang Mingfeng." Pointing to the young man again , "Xiao Meng from our place, Meng Fanqun." "Hello, hello." The two said almost at the same time, reaching out and shaking each other's hands.
"Xiao Meng, let Xiao Yang run errands for you, I have to go upstairs quickly." After Liu Lixin finished speaking, he hurried out of the crowd, looking for the guy in jeans who was still waiting in the distance, and walked towards the back of the hall went.
Yang Mingfeng stood behind Meng Fanqun and the other six people and observed carefully, and soon saw something.It turned out that these three groups were streamlined operations.The first group, Meng Fanqun, registered the guest's name, unit, and job title on a stack of cards, and another person took the card and entered it into the computer immediately.The second group assigns rooms according to the information registered by the guests.Ordinary guests live in a standard room shared by two people, and the person in charge of the company enjoys a business suite. As for VIPs, there are deluxe rooms waiting for them.However, the computer screen shows that so far, no deluxe room has been issued.The third group of two beautiful girls did the physical work of distributing materials and souvenirs.Souvenirs packed in bags with company logos are divided into two grades, one is the Motorola mobile phone of the 1000 series, and the lower one is the Apple iPod music player.
Now is the peak period for registration, and there are crowds of people in front of the stage, like a rich man, noisy and excited, and it doesn't stop until they get the gifts.If you are in a hurry, you open the gift box on the spot and try it out in a hurry.So in the lobby, the image contrast was strong and they were divided into two types of people.One type is holding a new mobile phone and yelling "Hi! Hello", while the other type is silent with two white lines hanging from its ears, bowing its head and smiling slightly.
New friends and old friends from all corners of the country, all aiming at a revolutionary goal, gathered in this hall that suddenly seemed much smaller. There were everyone, so it was not a problem...
At the end of the assembly line, a black and thin man in his forties, wearing a pink short-sleeved shirt, spoke a southern accent that could not be distinguished from "dead corpses", holding a small iPod in his hand, and was anxious to get red. With a white face and a rough voice, he angrily taught the beautiful girl who gave the gift: "You little girl, you don't understand anything! Let me tell you again, the National Insurance is guaranteed according to the 'Guarantee Letter', you must give me Fill it out and stamp it with your company's sales stamp, or if I take it home and break it, will I have to come to Beijing again?"
The tall girl in a white shirt blushed, her voice was quiet, but she was firm: "Our gifts are also bought in bulk from the seller. There are so many, how can I give you a sales stamp."
"Then tell me, what if mine breaks down within a year?" "Corpse" was already frantic, with white froth on his thick lips, "What's so great about you Beijingers, you treat me like this Is it a client? Get your leaders here!"
"Our leader is not here!" The girl took a step back, raised her face and squinted at him disdainfully.
The girl's straightforward words really angered the master who always regarded himself as "God".His face turned "liver" in an instant, and he left the domineering little girl and turned around to seek support: "How can the Yuanhong Group do things like this? Such a big thing happened, and the leader didn't come out to say a word, did he?" It's so irresponsible!" Seeing that he was going to play live interaction, the audience retreated one after another, showing him a round field.
At this time, a white and clean young man ran in in small steps from the circle, holding his mobile phone with a smile on his face, approached the "dead body" and nodded and said something in his ear. "Corpse" was taken aback for a moment, took the mobile phone handed over by the young man, and aggressively said "Hello" to the microphone a few times, and then slowly lowered his voice.Later, he stabbed the cell phone into the young man's arms, lowered his head, picked up his gift bag, jumped out of the circle, and left without looking back.
"Hey, are you okay?" Meng Fanqun patted the shoulder of Yang Mingfeng who had just walked back with approval, "What did you say to that person?"
"Hey, it's really nothing." Yang Mingfeng was a little proud. "My ex-girlfriend had such an iPod. I don't know how her father got it. It's just a bare phone. It broke down later, and I got it from Apple's customer service. When I ask, the warranty depends on the machine number, and it can be produced within one year. I just called the 800 number on the box and asked the customer service lady to tell the person herself."
"That's all?" Meng Fanqun still didn't believe it!Isn't it nonsense to reason with unreasonable people?
"I also told him, buddy, I also came to the meeting, and found that the security guards outside were all hired by Yuanhong Company, let's not suffer from immediate losses, let's go."
Unexpectedly, Meng Fanqun frowned tightly when he heard Yang Mingfeng's cleverness, and stared at him with some hostility for several seconds, before warning him in a gloomy tone: "You talk so nonsense, if you really stab him If you lose Lou Zi, you will be at a disadvantage!"
Yang Mingfeng didn't expect Meng Fanqun's attitude to change suddenly, and he was confused.It turned out that his idea was that if that person got entangled with him, a group of his revolutionary comrades would definitely follow him.Didn’t General Manager Da Wenbin say that Yuanhong is everyone’s home.How could there be any reason why you would not reach out to save your family members while they were being wronged and humiliated?However, when I turned around and thought about the spectators around, who didn't understand that the guy was making trouble for no reason, bullying a little girl, but who would be willing to speak a word of justice?Oh, by analogy, I was really in suspense just now.Hey, this principle of heaven is the same as truth, it seems that it can only be established under certain conditions.
Dinner for the staff is a buffet.The three old and four young people who worked in the conference affairs group, and those who looked like "Yamaguchi-gumi" at the door all came.People are old acquaintances, while passionately cursing the evil food, they get together and talk about family and children.Holding a tray, Liu Lixin wandered around several places, and finally found Yang Mingfeng who was devouring a bottle of beer alone on a nearby table.He slowly sat beside Yang Mingfeng, winked and said: "I heard what happened to you this afternoon? A handsome guy came to save the beauty. I really can't see that you still have this ability."
Yang Mingfeng stiffened his neck, quickly swallowed a mouthful, and said falteringly: "Wow, I was so stupid, I still feel scared when I think about it now, if that guy makes a fuss, there's nothing wrong with it."
"Hey, don't say that, you did a good thing." Liu Lixin glanced at the side with his big eyes, and said in a low voice, "No matter what you think, don't talk too much. You think Think, is what I just said useful?" Yang Mingfeng thought for a while, and he was also happy, so he simply didn't say anything, just nodded his head several times gratefully.
"Are you coming tomorrow?" Liu Lixin asked casually as he buried his head in the green chilli beef tenderloin.
This sentence really stopped Yang Mingfeng from asking.In fact, he himself was also thinking about whether to follow the team to Badaling and the Ming Tombs tomorrow, or come here to see the world.I am tired of going to Badaling for a long time. Almost every time my undergraduate classmates come to Beijing, they will order this dish.But as for the Ming Tombs, I have never been there.Fortunately, he just learned a trick, and he didn't answer if he couldn't answer well, so he used it on Liu Lixin on the spot.He pretended not to hear, raised the bottle and took a few sips of beer. After a while, he said, "Master Liu, you can have a bottle too, or I'll get you a bottle."
Liu Lixin waved his hands hastily after hearing this: "I have to drive home, I can't drink." He picked up the empty plate and stood up, "You drink slowly, drink more, anyway, I don't need money, I'll go first .”
As soon as Liu Lixin left, a slender figure floated over twistingly and twistingly.Yang Mingfeng looked up, and it turned out that it was the "beautiful woman" who he rescued on the spot today.The girl came to him with a plate of watermelon petals, and greeted him with a smile: "Hello!" Yang Mingfeng froze for a moment, he didn't expect her voice to be so beautiful.
Yang Mingfeng hastily wiped the beer foam from the corner of his mouth, stood up and said repeatedly: "Hello, hello." This girl is really tall, about 1.70 meters, and really thin, with two long legs , like a compass.On the carefully decorated apple face, a pair of eyes are upturned like crescent moons, which is really beautiful.
The girl casually put the plate on the table, sat down by herself, looked at Yang Mingfeng and said, "Eat some watermelon." Yang Mingfeng has always respected women very much, even though he already had three bottles of beer in his stomach, he still didn't care. Picking up a piece hesitantly, he lowered his head and began to eat.
"Puchi!" The girl was amused when she saw him snoring and eating, "You are so funny, why don't you vomit when you eat watermelon?"
When she said this, Yang Mingfeng looked quite calm, raised his head and replied seriously: "I lived on campus all the time in high school, and several people shared a watermelon. If you don't spit it out, you can grab it faster. Later, I also found it troublesome to spit it out, so slowly Just get used to it."
Yang Mingfeng confessed frankly, but unexpectedly, the girl laughed even more happily, and the crisp "giggle" sound attracted the attention of many people nearby.Yang Mingfeng originally liked girls with triangular faces, but for some reason, he has a new insight today. Although triangular faces look pretty, but in terms of sweetness, apple faces may be even better.The girl stopped laughing, her pink face immediately changed into a serious look, and said, "Yang Mingfeng, I still want to thank you today."
Even though he knew she was saying this, Yang Mingfeng was still a little surprised: "How do you know my name?"
"Hehe, then don't worry about it. They are all working in Yuanhong. Isn't it easy to ask someone?" The girl blinked her eyes mischievously a few times.
Hearing these words, Yang Mingfeng felt very uncomfortable.I thought I was a newcomer and no one knew me, but when I thought about it carefully, it turned out to be the opposite. Everyone was acquaintances, and I was the other person.It's no fun being in the spotlight that even a little girl can't hide from.Yang Mingfeng's face was a little stiff, and he laughed twice and said: "It should be, that person made trouble for no reason, bullied others, and no one would care if he left it alone. Don't look at my appearance at the time, I was actually quite scared in my heart."
"Afraid? Haha..." The girl laughed again, "I really didn't see it, but I thought you looked like a traitor at that time." The girl said, pondering for a while, "You are assigned to the economic department. Right? That's the best organization in the whole group. No matter how many people want to get in, they can't get in."
Yang Mingfeng was taken aback by these words!God, this honor is too lofty!It was the first time he had heard someone tell him this, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, grunted a few times, and remained silent for a long time.Seeing his nervous look, the girl was puzzled. She blinked her big eyes and asked, "What? Don't you even know this?"
Yang Mingfeng answered truthfully: "I don't know. I only know that I was assigned to the research institute before. I didn't know there was a change until I saw the notice this afternoon."
"Well, this is a bit interesting..." The girl was quite surprised, and said softly after thinking, "It is said that to enter the economic department, the big leaders above the vice president must nod in person. Do you know them?" See Yang Mingfeng shook his head eagerly, and the girl came to a conclusion, "Hey, anyway, it's a good thing! You're going to treat me."
Yang Mingfeng is not stupid, he can hear the meaning of this sentence.However, ever since he experienced that unforgettable love-hate relationship at school, he has had an inexplicable sense of fear towards girls, especially beautiful ones.He smiled bleakly: "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Since you're asking me to treat you, then please."
"Okay, okay, you are not allowed to play tricks." The girl's eyebrows twitched, a little self-confident about her beauty, and she looked like a rascal.
"Hey, that's not right!" Yang Mingfeng suddenly realized, "Didn't you come to thank me? Why do you want me to spend money? I haven't received my salary yet, and I only have two thousand yuan for settling-in allowances. It's almost spent."
Girls in Beijing have a unique style of free and easy, and it is even more vivid in this veritable beauty.She flicked her long hair, and said nonchalantly, "Cut! I invite you! I invite you! What day do you think?"
When Yang Mingfeng said that just now, he meant to dodge it, but he didn't expect that he would get involved so generously, so he was a little passive.If you don't know what to say, don't say it. This is what he just learned, so he changed the subject: "Sorry, I haven't known your name and unit yet after talking for a long time."
"Hehe," the girl laughed again, "If you have the ability, you can find out by yourself, don't ask me." Yang Mingfeng was immediately stopped, he laughed dryly twice, fiddled with his chopsticks, and stopped answering her words.
The girl seemed to be angry, she pushed the empty plate at her side, stood up, her voice became cold all of a sudden, and said without thinking: "Eat slowly, I'm leaving!" After finishing speaking, she twisted Holding her little butt, she went straight out of the restaurant and walked away.
Yang Mingfeng walked out of the hotel door awkwardly, and strolled on the wide street where the night breeze was warm.The starry sky is dim, the lights are colorful, the whirring traffic glides by like neon clothes, and there are very few passers-by on the sidewalk paved with square bricks.Today, too many things happened, it seems that good things happen again and again, but when I think about it carefully, I feel a little "pain".Yang Mingfeng suddenly felt an inexplicable loneliness and fear for no reason, unknowingly took out his mobile phone, and called his home far away.
Sure enough, Lao Yang was about to go out for a walk just after watching the "News Network". When he heard his son's voice, he first praised him cheerfully, which probably meant that his son started working and became sensible. I remembered making a phone call.Hearing this, Yang Mingfeng's face became hot.However, after listening to Yang Mingfeng's report on the sudden change in the situation, Lao Yang pondered for a long time before he said seriously: "I know, you were originally a liberal arts student, and since you were young, your composition has always been a school model essay. But I have always been pushing you hard and leading you to the path of science and engineering. Because of this, we father and son had a bad relationship. Why? My life experience, people live in the world, there must be a skill. Engage in science and engineering No one can take away your skills. Even if you are unemployed, you can set up a stall to repair bicycles and support your family. I don’t look down on those who play with pens. Is that called craftsmanship? If people don’t use you, they can eat Difficult. I think, if you work in the agency for a period of time, talk to the leaders, or go back to the research institute to work on technology..." Unexpectedly, before my father finished speaking, my mother grabbed the microphone and said urgently : "Xiaofeng, don't listen to your father. You see, he has been engaged in technology all his life, and he finally got something. It is hard to find a car from the academy. I agree with you to enter the organization, manage management, and establish a good relationship with the leader. In the future, you will become a Officer, mom will follow you too."
Since Yang Mingfeng was a child, he has been used to listening to his parents' guidance on Maimang. Although he knows that it is for his own good, in most cases, there will be no final unanimous resolution.After hanging up the phone, Yang Mingfeng felt much better. Perhaps it was fate that he would eventually walk on the road that his father called "useless".
It is the bricks of the city that will always be on the wall, and no one can stop it.
