The sound of hurried footsteps came from the stairs, interrupting Shi Yunan's unspoken question.
Qin Jian, who went upstairs, saw the two people in front of the study and paused unnaturally, "...Patriarch, I'm sorry."
Shi Yunnan suddenly felt an uncomfortable feeling of 'being caught', and the timid and impulsive thoughts dissipated in an instant.
He paused for a second or two, and turned away pretending to be nonchalant, "Are you still busy next time?"
Luo Lingsheng took back the glasses in his hand and put them on again, covering the deep meaning in his pupils, "There is still a meeting."
Because of Shi Yunnan's invitation last night, the meeting originally scheduled for one o'clock in the afternoon was temporarily postponed by Luo Lingsheng. He went back to the study just to get a copy of the signed approval documents.
"Oh, then I won't bother you for now."
Shi Yunnan straightened his posture in time without any stalking.
He looked down at the watch that Luo Lingsheng was already wearing on his hand.
"Ok?"
"forgot to tell you..."
Shi Yunnan tapped his empty wrist, his voice brisk as if he was dancing, "This watch can only be bought in pairs, I have one too, do you mind?"
Luo Lingsheng's voice rose slightly, "Okay, I see."
Seeing that the other party did not resist this matter, Shi Yunnan turned around happily and returned to his room.
Luo Lingsheng entered the study to get the documents, and when he went out again, he saw Qin Jian apologizing in a rare panic, "Patriarch, I will definitely not go upstairs to disturb you next time."
He waited downstairs for a while, and when he saw Luo Lingsheng's delay in coming down, he thought that the other party had an accident because of the inconvenience of his legs and feet, so he hurried up to check the situation.
I didn't expect to see that ambiguous picture.
Qin Jian is a discerning man, and he must conclude that he has ruined some good things of his own boss.
Luo Lingsheng didn't blame him, just asked, "What time is it?"
Just as Qin Jian was about to touch her phone to check, she caught a glimpse of Luo Lingsheng raising his wrist, "Four point six? It's still in time for the meeting, let's go."
The seemingly calm self-questioning and self-answering, but the meaning of showing the brand-new watch is slightly more obvious.
"..."
Qin Jian was only a second slower, and he praised him for his excellent professionalism as an assistant, "Patriarch, your watch is very beautiful. Second Young Master Shi gave it?"
Luo Lingsheng rubbed the smooth dial, and the corners of his mouth rose, "Well, he bought it for me on purpose."
The word "deliberately" is also a bit deliberate.
"..."
Qin Jian was rendered speechless by the show, and had a new understanding of her always stern and indifferent boss.
Patriarch, you can't hold back your desire to show off, can you be more obvious
…
Luo Lingsheng was busy with the group until late at night, and rushed to the airport early the next morning.
Shi Yunnan heard about this as soon as he woke up, and felt a little regretful in his heart, but he quickly put away this emotion and started the business of design.
Shi Yunnan is not someone who breaks his word. Since he promised to help 'Lou's' design the product appearance, he is determined to do it.
Shi Yunnan asked people to get the information of Lou's main products, and asked three or two friends in the design circle to help guide them.
Fortunately, the product design and jewelry design have similarities, and it is not difficult to start. He drove out the series draft within ten days.
At the same time, Luo's investment company confirmed its cooperation with Lou's and established a special project team.
As a designer, Shi Yunnan has a strong sense of responsibility. Some of the material selections must be matched in person. He said hello to Qin Jian, who was far overseas, and came to his investment company alone.
In the early years, the Luo Group was more inclined to the chaebol model. When Mr. Luo was in power, there were many industrial chains in the group, and they basically achieved a strong monopoly in the industry.
Until the death of the old man, the direct line and close relatives competed to seize and cannibalize each other's capital, resulting in many disasters.
Later, Luo Lingsheng successfully took control, and the first thing he did was to close up the too scattered industrial chain, leaving only a few large and strong industries.
Of course, Luo's momentum in the past two years has only increased, and it will only take minutes if he really wants to 'swallow' other small industries.
This is also the reason why companies and wealthy families in the imperial capital still respect and fear Luo Lingsheng.
Luo's investment company is called 'Jiaolong', and its qualifications can be regarded as a veteran, and its headquarters is in Dijing.
When Shi Yunnan drove to the downstairs of the company, he was greeted by a thin man in his early thirties.
"Hello, Mr. Shi, my name is Yuan Hong. I am the person in charge of the investment project arranged by General Secretary Qin. You can contact me for any connection related to Lou's."
The other party handed a business card with both hands, and the smile on his face was half true and half false. At first glance, he looked like an old-fashioned workplace fritter who used to judge the situation.
"Thanks."
Yuan Hong led Shi Yunnan to swipe his card quickly into the company, talking while walking.
"The Lou's investment project team was just established this morning. Besides me, there are six team members. If Mr. Shi needs an assistant in design, I can immediately notify the design department to arrange it."
"No, I have already finished the design, and I have personally confirmed the details with the Lou and his wife."
Shi Yunnan replied that the always wanton tone became very serious in design work.
"It's all done?"
Yuan Hong opened his eyes slightly, and quickly regained his expression.
The elevator steadily rose to the sixteenth floor, the door opened, and the single floor of the office building was divided into seven or eight large single rooms.
Luo's wealth is rich, and even the investment company under it is very arrogant, but it is a project matching team of six or seven people, and it can also have a separate office area.
Yuan Hong looked at Shi Yunnan at the furthest distance.
The door of the office was left open, and as soon as the two walked to the door, they heard a discussion coming from inside.
"Crazy, why are the upper-level leaders crazy to invest in a small and broken company like Knowles?"
"This Lou's company almost collapsed in one breath, and the headquarters allocated it to invest, which is a waste of time."
"Have you all seen the prospects of the project? With Knowles' current products, the profit point can be increased by at most 2%, and the possibility of not making any profit is even greater. Why do you have to do thankless things here."
"No one was willing to come to this investment group at the big meeting yesterday. The resistance of the few of us was obvious enough, right? We were all forcibly assigned to this group today. When I saw the allocation notice, I almost thought I was dazzled!"
"Don't mention it, the more you think about it, the more you get angry, Lao Yuan's picking people is too unkind."
Three or four old employees were discussing, and their voices were not very happy.
The final profit of the investment project is linked to the salaries of the team members. When they think that the final profit point of Knowles is very small, they feel that it is a waste of time and energy.
Just as Yuan Hong was about to push the door open, Shi Yunan quickly stopped him.
"This… "
"What's the hurry?" Shi Yunan put his index finger on his thin lips, and glanced at Yuan Hong, "You picked them all?"
Yuan Hong was flustered by the sudden look in his eyes, and explained in a low voice.
"The five departments in it are all old employees, and they have a lot of experience in project docking. There is only one intern who is responsible for chores."
"Secretary-General Qin said that the Luo family attaches great importance to this project, so I transferred them here."
"Yes?"
Shi Yunnan looked back deeply.
The older employees are, the harder it is for them to obey discipline, and the more low-profit projects they are, the more likely they will be dissatisfied and slack off.
The interns have little work experience, and they have no right to speak in the team at all.
Just as he was thinking, there was another discussion in the office.
"Seniors, I heard that this investment project is what Chairman Luo likes? Since it is a project that the immediate boss personally likes, we should do it well. Although the profit margin in the prospect report is a little smaller, everything is there. …”
This technique sounds green, it should be an intern.
Sure enough, the next second was interrupted by other old employees—
"Do you really believe that Chairman Luo will take a fancy to such a small company? I heard that the design director from our group is very related to President Luo, and he is also the direct beneficiary of this project."
"Really or not? Wasn't it still rumored last week that Chairman Luo has been certified to get married?"
Talking and talking, things develop to the level of gossip.
"Rich people get married. Who knows how many lovers can play in private? Although Chairman Luo is inconvenient to move around, he just looks at him. Most of them are men and women who worship money."
"When I think of that designer who doesn't understand shit, and can become the core leader of our group by relying on the relationship in bed, I feel..."
Before this sarcasm could finish, it was carefully interrupted by the intern whispering—
"Brother Chen, isn't it bad to talk about other people behind their backs? We haven't met that designer yet. Maybe they are working seriously."
The wealthy family and ordinary white-collar workers are still separated by 108,000 miles. Even if Luo Lingsheng and Shi Yunnan announced at the Zhao family's banquet that they had obtained their certificates, not everyone would know.
At this moment, Yuan Hong carefully observed Shi Yunnan's face—
After Qin Jian's suggestion, he probably guessed Shi Yunnan's true identity.
Seeing that he could no longer talk about the situation, Yuan Hong pretended to cough in a low voice, and the discussion inside froze.
"Who's outside?"
Shi Yunnan heard the sound, gently pushed open the door of the office, and smiled slightly.
Yuan Hong, who was standing behind Shi Yunnan, quickly shook his head to remind everyone. In the next second, he stepped forward and cleared his throat and shouted.
"Let me introduce to you, this is the designer in charge of Lou's product design, Mr. Shi Yunnan."
The six employees inside looked at each other and fell silent in unison.
Yuan Hong was afraid that Shi Yunnan would get angry because of the discussion just now, so he took the job as an excuse, "Everyone, prepare, we will have the first group meeting in the conference room in five minutes."
"Mr. Shi, I'll take you to a separate office next to the window with a good view."
Shi Yunan looked around at the employees, three men and three women.
The closest was a male employee. Although the other party bowed to the overall atmosphere and did not speak, there was still a trace of disdain for Shi Yunnan in his eyes.
Shi Yunnan smiled vaguely, and followed Yuan Hong slowly towards the office.
In terms of appearance, body shape and temperament, Shi Yunnan is dazzling in the crowd.
Today, for the sake of convenience, he tied the hair on the side of his neck back, leaving only a few short strands of hair hanging down at will.
It seems that some designers have a bohemian taste.
The two female colleagues who were still active in gossip immediately changed their attitudes and discussed in a low voice and excitement—
"Linlin, this designer seems to be quite handsome?"
"Yes, yes, I suddenly feel that being assigned to this group is not so bad."
"I announced that I can take root in this group and watch handsome guys every day."
Seeing that the female colleagues were bribed by Shi Yunnan's good looks and defected in a short period of time, the male employee standing in the front row subconsciously sneered.
"Hey, he's not a high-ranking person who sells his ass."
Coincidentally, at this moment, no one spoke in the audience.
In the absolutely quiet space, the blurted disparagement was all the more clear.
