Pharaoh made a rare appearance at the company on Wednesday afternoon.

He walked into the Vision Department with a smile on his face, and patted Chen Gong's shoulder and Zheng Yi's shoulder again, overjoyed: "The money from the three families arrived last night—you all Hurry up and applaud these two little brothers: this year's year-end awards are all won by them!"

The Vision Department cheered.

Everyone knows that Lao Wang is happy - not only because of the sluggish market environment this year, but also because his two "right-hand men" have finally shaken hands and agreed to the outside world.

Zheng Yi fluttered as soon as he was praised: "Small and trivial, thank you Lao Wang for your approval!"

Old Wang "tsk" stared: "No big or small! - Who is the old Wang!"

"The word 'old' means respect and worship - the children in the department usually call me Lao Zheng, and I am 'downward and upwardly effective'!" Zheng Yi argued for himself, and even dragged Chen into the water: "I'm right. No?—Old attack!"

The title caused another round of boiling in the department.

Chen Gong's mouth was not so quick, and he couldn't join in the gags. He was called by Zheng Yi, so he just raised his head and smiled faintly. Although the smile was faint, it still lingered on the corner of his mouth for a long time.

Zheng Yi secretly mocked Chen Gong for being an idiot: "Old Gong" can poke at his point and make him laugh; stupid man, does it matter who gets up and who gets down? - After thinking about it, I realized that I have no position to ridicule him... After all, I am also half a pound.

When the excitement in the department was over, Pharaoh invited Zheng Yi to the conference room.

Yao Jiaren didn't laugh enough, so he taunted Chen Gong in a low voice: "Where's Dark Shuang?"—Assigned to assist Cheng Shen in the implementation of the "three-in-one" project, Yao Jiaren's work station was moved to a place close to the director's position.

Chen Gong was directly exposed by Yao Jiaren, he glared at him first, and then felt that there was nothing to hide in front of Yao Jiaren who was too open-minded: "Am I obvious?"

"Fortunately - I know the cause and effect, so I can see it."

Chen Gong was embarrassed: "Have you read the plan? - Don't wait for Cheng Shen to come back in a while, ask your progress and ask three questions."

Yao Jiaren grinned: "Brother Chen can't control me, so just use Cheng Shen to press me?"

"That's because Cheng Shen can hold you down! It saves me management energy - this is called the art of manipulating people!" Following Zheng Yi's tone, Chen Gong also put on the air of the management.

Yao Jiaren moved the swivel chair and pursed his lips and smiled.

Zheng Yi was called to the conference room by Pharaoh. As soon as he was seated, Pharaoh asked with a smile, "Is there any progress?"

"Oh, the progress..." Zheng Yi took stock: "Chen Gong's plan has been confirmed by all three parties. Tomorrow, take Autumn and the person in charge of the modeling agency to a suburban hotel to confirm the scene and discuss the set requirements. , and then it will almost begin to arrange the implementation. The interactive show is currently planned to be arranged in two or three weeks - before the winter vacation - the time is indeed a bit rushed; but Beijing is different from other cities, and there are more people studying abroad; The clothing company is targeting the student market, and the winter vacation is a consumption peak that cannot be missed, so I decided to reduce the time cost of curation and exchange for greater promotion benefits."

Zheng Yifan's rhythm of execution without drafting was smooth, and Old Wang was stunned when he heard it: "Young Master Zheng has really changed—Chen Gong is really a good guy!"

Zheng Yi was unhappy: "Why do you only praise him when I've changed?"

"Can you change without him?" Old Wang smiled with relief: "Okay, you two can discuss it. I'm not worried about this - I'm asking about the progress of the two of you!"

Zheng Yi smiled: "Why do you gossip like this, old straight man?"

After he finished speaking, he was given a head by Pharaoh.

Zheng Yi rubbed his head: "I'm kissing my mouth - kiss anytime! Kiss me if you want! Hehe!"

Lao Wang was surprised: "Isn't that the end?"

"No... He still doesn't want to be with me - take his words: play a friend." Zheng Yi was a little discouraged when he said it, but Zheng Shi was frustrated and turned the page in two seconds; Kiss me once!"

Lao Wang laughed like a boiled kettle: "I have seen many people asking for a name for your son... I also saw a rich boy asking for a name from a poor boy for the first time - it's strange. !"

When Lao Wang said this, Zheng Yi himself felt it was quite funny: "Okay... don't make fun of me... "

"Don't make fun of you. Chen Gong is a straight kid—I mean he has an upright temperament, and he has no fuss, so it's hard to coax. But that's what I said, but in fact, the more such a person is, the better to deal with..." Lao Wang brought out his life experience: "A person like him - he is wary of you, but he is still willing to get along with you, which shows that he also likes you; be patient, and sooner or later take him down!"

Zheng Yi sighed, not daring to figure out the length of this "sooner or later".

"In the beginning, you contacted me after you returned to China. I originally wanted you to go to the marketing department - but then I thought about it, you are too angry and you are a relationship account. One day you will offend me all the customers, and no one dares to care. You, what should I do? I put you in the visual department—because the visual department has Chen Gong, he is stubborn. Although I gave you the position of director, I also let Chen Gong press you—he presses you, you are in this position. Active volcanoes can also be a little more peaceful." Lao Wang's current expression is obviously very pleased with the decision he made at the time: "You are a volcano, don't feel wronged by melting an iceberg - it's all mutual, he also It's pouring your anger."

Zheng Yi pouted: "It's like a 'match made in heaven' with me."

"At work, at least. In life, I'm not involved in what you two do—be patient!"

"Okay." Zheng nodded: "Don't worry, I have that patience."

After educating Zheng Yi, Wang Yao left the Vision Department, and when he passed the smoking room, he saw Chen Gong inside again.

Came in and asked Chen Gong for a cigarette: "Xiao Zheng is not bad."

"Not bad." Chen Gong nodded in approval: "He came up with the idea of the three-in-one project."

"I admire them all!" Pharaoh nodded again and again when he talked about his performance.

"I admire." Chen Gongshun continued.

Old Wang smiled: "Do you admire it? Does it count for him to climb on your bed?"

"I never promised him this!" Chen Gong was choked by Old Wang's indecent behavior, and frowned and coughed for a long time.

"I'm teasing you." Wang Yao was smoking a cigarette: "What are you worried about? It doesn't suit your taste?" - Wang Yao knew what Chen Gong was worried about, but just wanted him to say it himself.

But Chen Gong didn't say anything, he just smoked a suffocating cigarette - after being with Wang Yao for so many years, Chen Gong never talked to him about his relationship. When it comes to this topic... I'm actually a little embarrassed.

Just don't say it. Wang Yao turned his head and looked out the window—the office building where HALO is located is located in a bustling business district. Although it is a working day, there are still young parents who bring their children to play. Looking at the crowd in the business district, Wang Yao suddenly started talking: "Guozi celebrates his eighth birthday this spring, and I gave him a Polaroid specially designed for children to play with. He likes it, he takes pictures all day long— I think in the future I will follow in my footsteps and eat photography.”

Guozi is the son of Wang Yao. Every time I saw Chen Gong, I cried, hid in my father's arms and said, "That brother is so fierce!"

Wang Yao blew out a smoke ring, with a fatherly smile on his face: "If I wait for Guozi to graduate from University, it is estimated that everyone in my generation will have withdrawn from the battlefield of life; then you will become the mainstay of the industry - Xiao Chen , then I will entrust you to take care of him in his career, are you willing to help my brother?"

"Of course I do!" Chen Gong was also enthusiastic, looking at his new-year-old brother: "I will never give up!"

Wang Yao patted Chen Gong's shoulder to show his gratitude, and continued: "When I started hanging out with Zheng Yi's father, I was about the same age as you; Zheng Yi was in junior high school - at that time, his father explained to me: In the future, when Zheng Yi grows up, if he can help, he will help more."

Chen Gong was stunned.

"I know that Zheng Yi came from behind and snatched your director position, and you were wronged. But don't care about Brother Wang..."

Chen Gong always thought that Zheng's father greeted Pharaoh before Zheng Yi entered the job and walked through the back door... Although Pharaoh said it to himself at that time, but he said it vaguely; he didn't know the truth and it was a dying order.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been worried at that time... After putting out the cigarette, Chen Gongchong smiled at the old man: "Don't worry, I don't care, don't worry about it - I have to thank you."

"Thank me for what?" Old Wang also put out the cigarette.

"Thank you for giving me-"

I've always been bad at words, so I can't give a definition to "Zheng Yi" at this moment - bypassing "this old enemy" in my mind, excluding "this enemy"... Even the objective "this boss" doesn't seem to be very good. precise.

After stammering for a long time, Chen Gong felt clumsy and gave up the definition.

"—Zheng Yi."

This is how Chen Gong completed the sentence.

I was named by Director Zheng before I got off work the night before - I asked Yao Jiaren to go to the suburban hotel today and go through the scene: "According to Deputy Supervisor Chen, you have experience in exhibition planning and luxury goods display in your resume before. You should be able to contribute, right?"

Yao Jiaren agreed readily: "Of course."

Of course go.

On the head of the bed is the "Life Guide" that I copied by hand, and the third rule is: work hard! There is also a "Come on!" emoji behind it.

- "Work hard!"

Three months after the darkest part of his life, Yao Jiaren withdrew from the mutual aid group pulled by the attending physician. Taking 60% of the monthly salary from the new job, renting a small and warm single apartment; raising a few pots of green dill that can grow vigorously without too much worry; adopting a small stray cat that was picked up - at this moment He was rubbing the soles of his feet coquettishly.

After shoveling the cat's feces and adding water and food, Yao Jiaren lowered his head and avoided the black shorts hanging on the clothesline. Yao Jiaren opened the curtains.

1. "Say goodbye to the past!" - Cut off all the past.

2. "Change to a new environment!" - Changed address and came to a new company.

3. "Work hard!" - Actively respond to every career opportunity.

4. "Manage yourself!" - After taking off the mask and washing her face again, she completed a whole set of skin care procedures step by step in front of the mirror. Yao Jiaren confirmed that today is also a perfect start.

… In this way, the sunshine in life has increased as expected.

The new apartment is only four subway stops away from the company.

HALO employee benefits are good, you can arrive at the company before 10:00, and now it is 9:16.

Take out the sandwiches made the night before from the refrigerator, Yao Jiaren put them in the microwave and adjusted the time. The phone rang suddenly at this moment - an unfamiliar number, Yao Jiaren thought for a while, thinking it was a courier or something.

"Hey?"

"It's me. That... I came to have breakfast and suddenly found that it's not far from your house. Do you want to drop by and take you to work?"

Yao Jiaren listened to the voice and recognized the caller: "You don't have to take care of me so thoughtfully—you go first, I haven't eaten yet, so I'll take the subway after I finish eating."

"Then I'll wait for you for a while!"

His tone was resolute and straightforward, but Yao Jiaren felt that he was entangled: "I really don't need to."

"But I'm already downstairs - I'll wait for you!"

The cat was full, and leaned over to bark at the receiver, as if calling for a caller. Yao Jiaren couldn't help but think of how this little guy stuck to him that day and refused to let go of his grip - what's so good about him? you like him so much

After staring at the kitten, Yao Jiaren smiled bitterly: "Do you want to come up first? - I haven't had time to get dressed yet."

"That's... That... That's fine..." The urgent footsteps on the phone were already obvious: "But... It seems that time is running out—I'm not that fast, will it be too late?"

Yao Jiaren didn't know what he was thinking about, Yao Jiaren just thought he was a little annoying.

Looking back, the pair of black shorts on the drying pole on the balcony showed a dark red through the sunlight.

Like a red flag.
