Chapter 083 Chapter 156, 157, 158
Guang Hongjun’s introduction aroused the interest of at least some people in the office.
With the dual identities of furniture designer and architectural designer, coupled with the fact that Lin Yilan looks so young, such people are always rare.
Facing everyone's scrutinizing eyes, Lin Yilan looked back at them, leaned forward and smiled.
"Comrade Lin, even if you sound like you really have two or three skills, I'm afraid it's not that easy for you to solve the problem in the exhibition hall."
The older man who was sitting on the sofa smoking before said, He crushed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.
The other smokers on the couch nodded in agreement.
Lin Yilan looked at them and silently moved two steps to the left to where the wind was blowing.
No wonder there are so many ashtrays in this office.
"Dear leaders, I may be exaggerating when I say this, but as an architect with some experience, I may still have some ideas when dealing with this situation."
She looked back at the group leader sitting behind the desk, " Leader, how about this, I will draw a sketch of the cover up in your office and show it to you and the leaders here. If you think it is suitable, we will use this method, how about it?"
The group leader touched his chin and stared at Lin. Yilan's face looked on.
Where did you meet this person?
The lesbian in front of him was definitely something he had seen before, otherwise she wouldn't have looked so familiar.
He pondered for a moment and nodded, "Since Miss Lin said so, I will give you a chance."
The person on the sofa couldn't sit still, "Leader!"
His eyes were full of resistance and dissatisfaction.
"This decision is too hasty, otherwise we should find a way to contact the ceramic tile factory now." Someone got up from the sofa and stood up.
"Yes."
"I agree with Comrade Li's proposal."
"I second it."
At this time, everyone in the office turned their attention to the group leader behind the desk.
The team leader looked at Lin Yilan who was standing in front of his desk.
"I recognize you."
"Miss Lin Yilan, you are a student at Beijing University of Technology, right?"
He stood up from his chair and walked around to Lin Yilan.
What's going on?
The people still sitting on the sofa also stood up.
They looked at Lin Yilan for a while and then looked at the group leader.
Guang Hongjun also looked confused. He didn't hear Xiao Lin say that she knew people from the Guangcheng government.
Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Sorry... I don't think I've seen you before."
The group leader explained with a smile, "I have seen news about you in the newspaper before, and I once talked with Zhao The battalion commander is in the same group."
Then he walked up to the team members and pointed at Lin Yilan, "This is Lin Yilan, the designer of the SG Beijing Brand Store."
"If you have any impressions from last year's newspapers, you will. I know her."
The only girl in the group suddenly realized, "Yes, I just said why I think Comrade Lin looks so familiar."
"I didn't expect you to be from the Jingshi Furniture Factory . Designer. He has multiple hats. That's awesome."
Lin Yilan smiled sheepishly, "I'm just a non-staff member of the furniture factory, helping the furniture factory a little."
The team leader obviously didn't think so, "Ms. , since you just suggested that, we will give you time to draw a sketch, but you have to stay with us to finish it, and then only with the approval of all members of our working group can you use your plan to cover up the paint on the floor tiles. "
I don't know, what do you think, Miss Lin?" His mind was racing.
Now that the paint on the floor tiles has become a foregone conclusion, and the matter of replacing the floor tiles is not that easy to solve, it is better to comply with the furniture factory's suggestion.
But he asked Lin Yilan to paint, instead of using teachers or students from the Academy of Fine Arts as their furniture factory proposed.
In his opinion, Lin Yilan has done projects abroad and has the reputation of being the designer of the SG brand store, which can also be used to promote the Canton Fair.
Lin Yilan didn't expect this. She glanced at Guang Hongjun and saw that the paint color hadn't been adjusted yet!
Guanghongjun doesn't care about the paint coloring this time. As long as it satisfies the people in the working group, he can say anything.
And the matter of paint color mixing is not rushed.
However, Guanghongjun did not overstep his authority. Instead, he winked at Lin Yilan and said silently: "Can you do it?"
Lin Yilan quietly made an OK gesture, "Okay, then I will draw the picture here first. Come out and take a look at it."
"But, leader, I still want to explain in advance that I am not a professional art student, and my painting skills are probably not as good as those of professional art students. I hope you understand."
The leader of the group is full of enthusiasm. He couldn't care less about how to promote Lin Yilan's name now.
"I understand, don't worry."
"By the way, when can you start?"
Lin Yilan looked around, and everyone in the office was staring at her. She couldn't draw it even if she was a god.
"Leader, do you have a quiet place here that I can lend you for a while? In addition, I also need pencils, paper, and erasers for drawing."
The leader of the group nodded and went out to call someone. Then she looked back at Lin Yilan and said, "Xiao Lin, just follow him."
Before following the others, Lin Yilan glanced at Guang Hongjun and reminded him not to forget their compensation plan.
Guang Hongjun nodded lightly and patted his chest to reassure her.
After coming out of the office, Lin Yilan felt that the air was much fresher.
The group of people inside are so good at smoking.
She followed the person instructed by the group leader into an empty office. After the person brought some drawing materials from somewhere, he closed the door and went out.
Looking at the white paper in front of her, Lin Yilan's head was empty.
It can’t be too exaggerated, and it can’t be too boring.
What's more, her own painting skills are limited and she can't paint any stunning masterpieces.
She was the only one in the empty office, sitting at the table.
The window was to her right, sunlight poured in from the window, and dust danced in the sunlight like particles in the air.
Lin Yilan dragged her chin and stared out the window in a daze.
This office is just to the side, with green bushes outside the window.
The green shrubs seemed to be blown by the wind, or disturbed by something passing by.
"Return?"
"Return! Where have you been?"
A young girl's clear voice passed through the glass and entered her ears.
She didn't know if she couldn't think of inspiration or was too bored. She got up and pushed the window open, and then her hands were covered with dust.
"...Damn."
"I'm so idle!"
Lin Yilan stared at her dirty palms and couldn't help but curse.
"Woof woof woof -"
The bushes stirred, and a black dog's head popped out.
"Four-eyed" dog!
A person and a dog looked at each other, but neither of them made a sound.
"Woof?"
"Hi?"
"Woof!"
"Hi!"
Lin Yilan didn't know what she was doing. After sitting there for an hour, she was driven crazy by her empty mind.
The four-eyed dog tilted his head and looked at the strange person in front of him who was trying to talk to him. He suddenly tilted his head, grinned, and stuck out his tongue.
"Oh my god!!"
Lin Yilan clutched her chest, her soul falling back.
Such a cute dog smiling at me in the bushes is really cute.
Suddenly, she had inspiration.
By creating a visual illusion, draw a 3D bunny that opens the door and peeks out.
After thinking about it, she did it.
She doesn’t know why cute dogs make her want to draw rabbits.
Time passed quickly, and there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in."
Lin Yilan didn't even raise her head, trying hard to paint the picture in her mind.
"Comrade Lin, the director of the Guanghong Army said that you haven't had lunch yet. He asked someone to bring you a lunch. You should eat it quickly." With
the unfamiliar voice, she looked up and saw a face she had never seen before.
She stood up, took the lunch box, and said thank you, "Excuse me, please put the lunch box aside first."
The picture in her hand was almost finished, but she still had to eat first.
I promised my parents that I would eat well and rest on time.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Yilan knocked on the door of the group leader.
It’s been a long time, the first time, the first time! !
Holding the picture she drew in her hand, she felt a little uneasy.
After living for so many years, it was so rare for her, Lin Yilan, to have such emotions.
Her heart was beating like thunder. She was nervous because of the picture she was drawing, and at the same time she was excited because of her nervous emotions.
Damn, she won't become a pervert, right? !
"Please come in."
The group leader's painting dispelled Lin Yilan's excitement about self-analysis. She took two deep breaths in succession and calmed down.
The coldness the doorknob gave her calmed her down.
"Boss, my painting is finished."
The leader happily took the painting she handed him.
?
"So cute?"
A rabbit looked out from the door.
"Do you lesbians like such cute ones?" the leader couldn't help but tease.
Lin Yilan was silent. Did she want to draw an animal with a bloody mouth on the floor of the Canton Fair exhibition hall?
"Speaking of which, Miss Lin, what is the purpose of this painting of yours?" The leader looked at it for a while and put down the painting in his hand.
The painting was better than he had imagined.
He also thought that young people like Lin Yilan who pursued the trend would draw some particularly exaggerated paintings.
"Leader, I use the homophone of "rabbit" for "comrade." Lin Yilan didn't explain too much, but used the famous anime she watched in her previous life and some comments on the Internet.
This explanation silenced the leader.
He picked up the childish painting on the table and suddenly felt that it was different.
After a while, he stood up with the painting.
"Okay, I'll let you pass this level. Let's show the painting to the other people in the working group."
He followed the group leader and left his office, watching him call the people in the working group to the conference room one by one. .
"Comrade Lin, the painting has been drawn. You can take a look."
The group leader gestured to Lin Yilan, who put the painting in the middle of the table.
"Comrade Lin, please introduce the concept of your painting." The leader of the group raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Lin Yilan nodded and stood up.
"Dear leaders, I use rabbits to replace the people of our country in this painting to express our welcome to the visiting guests.
..."
Except for the initial introduction, the following words are all common clichés.
She actually knew very well that this painting might be a cute and childish painting in the eyes of most people. Of course, this was what she expected.
As a graffiti that covers up paint marks, if it can make those who see it smile, its mission has been accomplished.
Not everyone knows what it means.
However, what needs to be said still needs to be said.
After she expressed her idea, she found that those who didn't care at the conference table also restrained their emotions.
After everyone had finished reading Lin Yilan's manuscript, the group leader looked at the other people on the table and said, "Now everyone will vote on this painting."
"Raise your hands if you agree."
3, 2, 1
The entire conference table sat There were sixteen people, excluding Lin Yilan, an outsider, there were only fifteen people.
And ten people raised their hands.
Exactly 2/3 agreed.
Lin Yilan breathed a sigh of relief, the floor tiles issue was finally solved.
The meeting ended quickly, and the group leader handed the manuscript into Lin Yilan's hands.
"Comrade Lin, I'll leave the exhibition hall to you. If you need anything, you can contact me."
[Congratulations on the successful conclusion of the 53rd Canton Fair! At this Canton Fair, a total of...]
[Reviewing the Canton Fair, the booth layout of the Beijing Furniture Factory was widely praised. ]
[Celebrate that our city’s furniture factories have received over 300,000 orders at the Canton Fair. ]
[Canton Fair: Small ideas on the floor tiles. ]
[In order to ensure foreign businessmen have a rest at the Canton Fair, Jingshi Furniture Factory donated more than 35 kinds of furniture products to the Canton Fair. ]
["Rabbit = gay?"]
"You haven't read enough newspapers yet?" Lin Yilan complained helplessly to Xiao Chang, who couldn't control himself.
I really didn’t expect that this person would become so crazy after not seeing him for a few days.
However, she did not expect that there would be so many media and newspapers promoting the Canton Fair. She glanced at the newspapers on the table and found that basically all the newspapers related to the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Canton Fair had been bought by them.
Lin Yilan arrived in Shanghai by train at one o'clock in the morning.
This time, she was unable to accompany the furniture factory throughout the Canton Fair because the Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce's project bidding was suddenly advanced, so she had to take a train and leave early on the afternoon of the second day of the Canton Fair.
After she got on the train and set off, she immediately called Dean Wang and asked him to send the team members needed for the project bidding onto the train and meet her at the Shanghai Railway Station.
"Thank you for coming here all night." Lin Yilan stretched out her right hand towards Wang Liming.
Wang Liming held her hand and said, "It's not hard, everyone is here for the project."
After letting go, Lin Yilan took her luggage and walked out. The others quickly followed her pace, "By the way, Mr. Wang, I have been busy with the Canton Fair during this period. Is there any new news about the Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce project?"
Wang Liming thought for a moment, "It seems that the number of units participating in the bidding has not increased. They are all still on the list that Dean Wang gave us before."
"But. I heard that the Shanghai government will also send people to participate in the announcement of the bidding results, but I don’t know who they are. "
"But... Mr. Lin, the Shanghai government’s attitude towards their local architectural design institute. It's different from the Federation of Industry and Commerce. We have to be prepared."
Lin Yilan nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I understand. Let's find a car to go to the hotel first."
Xiao Chang couldn't help but follow them. I complained to the colleagues around me.
"Master Lin, you are really a workaholic. Even after such a huge harvest from the Canton Fair, she is still so calm, and now she is completely focused on the projects of the Federation of Industry and Commerce."
"Hiss--she is indeed a person with such a sense of reason. Someone who can achieve great things."
The colleague touched his chin and looked at Lin Yilan's back, "Did you just know that Teacher Lin is so calm today?"
"I just didn't expect her to be so calm." Xiao Chang didn't know where. He took out another newspaper and said, "Look at this newspaper in Guangcheng. The front page of the newspaper actually has a special paragraph introducing Master Lin."
"If I could achieve such an achievement, I would not go back to my hometown and lay three cigarettes in front of my ancestors' graves." Thousands of cannons fired, and I couldn't sleep."
The colleague took the newspaper in his hand and saw the text introducing Lin Yilan, "So you can't be someone like Master Lin."
When they arrived at the hotel, the group checked in. After completing the formalities, everyone is preparing to return to their respective rooms to rest.
Lin Yilan stopped next to Wang Liming, "Wang Gong, let's have a small meeting tonight to discuss tomorrow's bidding results announcement meeting."
Wang Liming had this intention, and he immediately stopped those in the corridor who had not yet entered the room. colleague.
"Everyone gather in my room at 6:30 in the evening. Let's have a small meeting."
Xiao Chang and others immediately responded, "I understand, Gong Wang, Master Lin."
"I understand."
"Okay, Gong Wang."
After Lin Yilan saw that her work arrangements were arranged, she immediately returned to her room.
Throwing her luggage beside the bed, she sat down on the single sofa beside the bed and pulled off the braid from her hair.
It wasn't enough to sit on her butt, she also put her legs on the sofa.
He wrapped his arms around his legs and curled up on the sofa.
His whole body exuded a lazy atmosphere, from his feet to his head, even his hair exuded laziness.
Hugging herself and closing her eyes was a way she had practiced to calm herself down.
The excitement from the aftertaste of the Canton Fair was still beating in her bones.
Even though my body was exhausted after riding the train for more than ten hours, my nerves were still twitching with excitement.
As someone who has been on the front lines, she knows much more than what is reported in the newspapers.
"Xiao Lin, the Thai businessman who just passed by signed a 50,000 order contract with our furniture factory."
"Comrade Lin, this is the 30,000 intention order contract that the director of the factory asked me to show you."
"Comrade Xiao Lin , we just signed another contract, saying that it was recommended by your friend Jenny. The director asked me to say thank you. "
"Comrade Lin,..."
"Xiao Lin,..."
In a few days, the furniture factory. People are completely in a state of madness.
The small booth was filled with people from all walks of life.
The heat generated by the crowded people, the crowds of people, and the English with various accents.
In the end, there were not enough people to receive foreign businessmen, and Lin Yilan was forced to go into battle.
Until she left, looking at the thick order letter of intent and the signed contract in Guanghongjun's hand, her heart couldn't help but surge.
She also has a share of all this money.
Lin Yilan hugged herself and pinched the flesh of her calf hard.
At this time, only pain can calm her down.
You haven’t received the money yet, why are you excited?
And this money is far from enough compared to the Liao family.
Thinking of Liao Jingming's family, she gradually calmed down.
"Dong dong dong——"
"Who?"
The knock on the door made Lin Yilan break away from her emotions.
"Is this Miss Lin Yilan? We are from the Propaganda Department of Shanghai Municipality."
Lin Yilan was silent for a moment and stood at the door, "Sorry, I am alone. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to call out Engineer Wang Liming next door? "
The people outside the door didn't say anything, probably because they had never seen such a person before.
"Okay, wait."
After hearing this, Lin Yilan lay at the door and eavesdropped on the sounds outside the door.
After there was a knock on the door in the next room, she quietly opened a crack in the door to make sure there was no one outside, and then opened the door wider.
"Who is it?"
"Hello, Engineer Wang Liming, I'm a comrade from the Propaganda Department of Shanghai Municipality."
"Oh, okay, I'll come right away."
"What do you want from me?"
Seeing Wang Liming open the door and take the After passing the person's ID, Lin Yilan opened the door completely and came out of the room.
"Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Wang." While they were explaining the situation, she walked up to Wang Liming apologetically.
After knowing the cause of the matter, Wang Liming smiled casually, "It's okay, you are a lesbian, you should pay more attention to safety outside."
In response, Lin Yilan just smiled faintly, and she looked at the person who said it was a Shanghai publicity person. Comrade from the Shanghai Publicity Department, "Hello, why are you looking for me today?"
Comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department collected their IDs and said, "Today, a foreign media reporter wanted to interview you. They found us and wanted us to contact you. "
By the way, they also said that they contacted you before at the Canton Fair in Guangcheng and expressed their desire to interview you."
Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment, recalling the situation in those days, "It seems like this." No., I don’t remember the specific situation.”
“Do you know which media it is?”
The comrade from the Shanghai Propaganda Department took out the small book in his pocket and said, "They said it was "Design Style". Comrade Lin, do you want to be interviewed?"
Lin Yilan hesitated for a moment and glanced at Wang Liming next to her.
"Master Lin, don't worry, leave the work here to me." Wang Liming knew this was a good opportunity.
She is not a character who likes to be noticed, but once more people pay attention to her, more people will come to her for design.
And...
she looked at the comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department with firm eyes, "I'm going. Please wait a moment. I'll talk to my friends first."
"Wang Gong, I will definitely be back before the meeting in the evening." She He turned to Wang Liming and explained.
Wang Liming nodded, "Okay, I understand."
"By the way, Master Lin, wait." He didn't know what he thought of, so he walked to the opposite side and knocked on Xiao Chang's door.
"Coming, coming~"
Xiao Chang's excited voice could be clearly heard by the three people in the corridor through a door.
"By the way, who is it?"
His vigilance came through in his voice.
The comrade from the Shanghai Propaganda Department glanced at Lin Yilan next to him. It was strange that the people he met today were so defensive.
Wang Liming said calmly: "It's me, Wang Liming."
Xiao Chang immediately opened the door, "Wang Gong, what's wrong? What do you want from me?"
Wang Liming turned sideways, letting Xiao Chang see the two people behind him, and simply explained The situation, "Xiao Chang, you go with Master Lin. You are not familiar with Shanghai City, and Master Lin is not safe alone."
Xiao Chang nodded happily, "Okay, then you wait for me to put on a coat."
He used to also After helping Lin Yilan, she would always treat him to delicious food afterwards.
And compared to other people in the architectural design institute, Master Lin and Gong Wang are really good leaders.
Comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department couldn't help but ask, "Are you architects so vigilant?"
Wang Liming glanced at Lin Yilan and said with a smile, "I learned from Master Lin. What's more, when you are away from home, everyone is more vigilant and cautious. Being on guard is not a bad thing. "
Before working with Lin Yilan, no one in their team, male or female, would wait until someone outside revealed their identity before opening the door when they heard a knock on the door.
Now these habits are just influenced by Lin Yilan's subtle influence.
Soon, Xiao Chang came out of the room wearing a coat.
The three of them left the hotel and arrived at the bus station.
The office of the Propaganda Department is the ZF Building in Shanghai.
After getting out of the car and walking a few steps towards the ZF building, the three of them saw two men with yellow hair on their heads.
"Mud Howl! Mud Howl! Sir."
One of the long-haired girls saw the three of them running over quickly.
The long-haired man holding a camera followed closely behind.
Just as the comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department wanted to say hello to them, they saw them rushing in front of Lin Yilan.
"Finally I see you again, Miss Lin."
Lin Yilan thought of these two people when she saw their appearance.
These two people spent the longest time shopping at the furniture factory’s booth, and they were also the two people who didn’t buy anything.
Whether it was the furniture factory's salesman's enthusiasm for them at the beginning, or their indifference to them after knowing their identity, these two people have always maintained their enthusiasm for the furniture factory's booth.
"I know you guys, but I didn't expect you to come to Shanghai to find me."
She shook hands with the two of them in turn.
The female reporter looked around, then pointed to a coffee shop not far away, "I'll treat you to a cup of coffee. Can you do an interview by the way?"
Lin Yilan pretended to hesitate for a moment, "Yes, but the interview is The content must be checked by me."
Seeing their eyes rolling, she reminded, "I have a lawyer who is responsible for all my business in the construction industry."
"He works at Raglan Lorenz. My name is Leo Martin, do you know him?"
After saying that, she smiled slightly when she saw the dejected expressions of the two of them.
She is here to introduce the interview, not to be spread rumors.
Don't think that she knows nothing. Some foreign media now like to ask some weird questions when interviewing Chinese people. After digging holes in the interviewees, they then modify the interview content to create a completely different meaning.
"So you two still want me to be interviewed?"
Xiao Chang and comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department standing next to the three people stared at them closely.
They were chatting in English. Xiao Chang and comrades from the Shanghai Municipal Propaganda Department could not understand it, but they could understand their expressions. There was something obviously wrong with the expressions of these three people.
Lin Yilan, in particular, exuded the aura of eagerness to do something bad.
Xiao Chang, who was relatively familiar with her, took two steps and blocked half of Lin Yilan's body.
"Master Lin, do you want me to drive them away?"
Lin Yilan shook her head, "Don't worry, they don't dare to mess with me casually."
She walked around Xiao Chang and stood aside.
The female reporter and the male photographer looked at each other.
"Ms. Lin, you misunderstood. Don't worry, we will review the content of your interview one by one. Of course, if you have any questions you don't want to answer, you can tell us in advance." The female reporter looked at her with a smile. Lin Yilan.
It is they who underestimated this young woman from China.
Lin Yilan pointed to the coffee shop and said, "Please."
The group of five people walked towards the coffee shop, and comrades from the Shanghai Propaganda Department followed them to the coffee shop.
He had no such plan originally, but after seeing the scene just now, he decided to go and feel more at ease.
When she arrived at the coffee shop, Lin Yilan skillfully ordered a cup of milk coffee, then sat down and waited for the two foreign media to arrive.
Xiao Chang didn't drink much coffee. After ordering a cup, he sat next to Lin Yilan.
He poked Lin Yilan's chair, "Master Lin, why do I think these two foreigners have bad intentions?"
Lin Yilan snorted, "Congratulations on your guess."
Xiao Chang turned around in surprise, " Then why are you still accepting interviews? Why don't you find other media?"
Lin Yilan picked up the fake flowers on the table and sniffed them, "Other foreign media will not be any better than these two people, and this is not the case. The two of them also helped promote the furniture factory, why not?"
Of course she didn't tell Xiao Chang the main reason.
She still has a bit of idol baggage.
The two of them stood at the counter and ordered coffee for a long time. Lin Yilan pinched the bridge of her nose and stared out the window in a daze.
"Ms. Lin, I'm sorry for the long wait."
The female reporter adjusted her chair and sat directly opposite Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan raised her hand and made a gesture of invitation, "It's okay, what do you want to interview me about?"
She crossed her legs and put her hands on the table sideways.
Lin Yilan's relaxation and leisureliness surprised the female reporter opposite, but she quickly concealed these emotions.
The female reporter took out a notebook and pen from her bag, sat up straight and took out a business card from the notebook and put it on the table.
"Ms. Lin, let's introduce ourselves formally. I am Bertha, a reporter from "Design Style"."
Shortly after the two formally started the interview, the waiter placed the coffee in front of Lin Yilan.
"Ms. Lin, we have the honor to visit the design of the booth at this Canton Fair. We can see that you also have some ideas of your own in terms of interior design. It
's just that the design of the booth is mostly just one part. I wonder if you have any ideas to improve it. How about forming a complete style?"
Once the interview started, Bertha's professionalism as a reporter became apparent.
Lin Yilan also corrected her attitude.
"I have thought about this question, but I have never had the chance. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely make a complete design for a house."
The two asked and answered questions and slowly entered the rhythm of the interview.
The male photographer next to him also took the opportunity to take a few photos of Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan, who was placed in the viewfinder, suddenly exuded a lot of charm when she talked about her major.
The photographer who had ill intentions towards her had to admit her beauty.
He looked at the camera in his hand in confusion.
The interview gradually came to an end.
After Lin Yilan felt it, she paid full attention.
"Lin, as far as I know, most of the furniture produced by the Jingshi Furniture Factory this time was your design, and it was originally used in the SJT Sailor Center in Denmark. But why did you authorize the design of the furniture to the furniture factory in your country? Isn't it for those more excellent and professional manufacturers abroad?
Is it because your country doesn't allow you to do this?
Or do you have something to hide?"
Bertha's eyes became sharper.
Her eyes were like an X-ray scanner scanning every piece of luggage on the conveyor belt. Even though there were so many things packed in her luggage, she could still find the real secrets hidden under the heavy obstructions.
e!
Something different comes.
The photographer next to him also picked up the camera in his hand, and the lens was pointed at Lin Yilan's face motionlessly.
Lin Yilan looked at the two of them calmly, with the same expression as the questions she heard before, and then took a sip of the coffee at hand.
"Bertha, I have to admit that you are a very good reporter. You can learn so much information about me in such a short time."
Bertha was not happy because of Lin Yilan's praise, but her eyes became sharper.
"When I was working with SJT Town, they also asked me this question. Today I will answer it again. As a designer, in addition to giving customers satisfactory designs, I also want to satisfy my own design requirements. The pursuit of art, and I also promised my parents to be an honest person.”
“After I have made an agreement with the furniture factory, even if there are choices that seem better to outsiders, I will abide by my previous promise. ."
Lin Yilan repeated this lie without changing her expression.
She had made an agreement with Guanghongjun a long time ago, and also fabricated a letter of intent for cooperation. The date on it was earlier than when she went to Denmark to work on the project.
If you tell a lie ten thousand times, although it is still a lie, it will become truth in the eyes of outsiders.
Bertha looked at her suspiciously. She had always maintained a skeptical attitude after hearing this statement from her friend on the phone.
After all, Lin Yilan had not shown any talent in furniture design before Denmark. Why would the director of the furniture factory cooperate with her?
When she came to her senses, she realized that she had asked this question.
Lin Yilan changed her sitting posture and looked more relaxed.
"Bertha, I also did two projects in our country before doing the Danish project. I was not able to design the Danish project from the beginning."
"Everyone has a period of growth in their career development, even geniuses. What's more, I'm not a genius."
She looked at Bertha with a smile, like a child who proudly discovered that an adult had made a mistake.
Such a smile makes people feel a little embarrassed, but it doesn't make people angry either.
After all, why would adults care about children?
She glanced down at her watch. It was getting late.
Lin Yilan picked up the coffee at hand and drank it all in one breath, then took out the tissue in her bag and wiped her mouth.
"Bertha, do you have any more questions? I have something to do later, so I can't waste too much time."
How could Bertha let Lin Yilan go so willingly? She spent the whole afternoon interviewing here, but she didn't get what she wanted at all. content.
"Well...Lin, let me treat you to dinner. Can we chat for a while while having dinner?"
She tilted her head and motioned to the photographer behind her.
The male photographer immediately echoed: "Yes, Lin, you accepted our interview today, and we haven't been able to thank you yet. How about going to that Western restaurant by the river?"
There is a Western restaurant by the Huangpu River that is very special. It's expensive, but the taste is very authentic. Most of the people who go here are foreigners who come to Shanghai.
Lin Yilan stood up and shook her head, "Sorry, I have very important things tomorrow, and I have a meeting with my colleagues tonight, so let's talk about it next time we have a chance."
She glanced at her watch and walked next to Xiao Chang .
"Xiao Chang, we should go back."
The sleepy Xiao Chang shook his head and stood up immediately.
"Okay, I got it, Master Lin."
Lin Yilan went to the front desk to pay for the coffee, and then walked next to the comrades from the Shanghai Municipal Propaganda Department, "You have been with us in the coffee shop all afternoon today, and I don't know how to thank you. , I’ll give you this cup of coffee.
I hope you don’t mind.” She bowed and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she turned back to Bertha and took out a piece of paper from her pocket.
"This is my contact information. If it's convenient, can you give me a call after my interview is selected for your magazine?"
Bertha took the piece of paper and put it in her business card holder, "Of course."
"But, Lin, it's time for you to design a business card for yourself." She closed the business card holder with regret in her tone.
Lin Yilan shrugged and explained helplessly, "Thank you for the reminder. I never thought I would have the opportunity to give others business cards so soon."
"It's getting late, so I won't give them to you two." She smiled. He waved his hand.
After she and Xiao Chang came out of the cafe, the smile on Lin Yilan's face disappeared immediately.
If he let her go so easily, Bertha would probably stare at her for a while.
During the afternoon interview, she could clearly feel that Bertha had put a lot of effort into her and carefully studied her past experiences.
After so much effort, Bertha probably wouldn't be satisfied if it only contained the previous interviews.
However, she left such a big bait to see if they would take the bait.
She touched her fingers, hoping Bertha wouldn't disappoint her.
On the way back, Xiao Chang kept secretly glancing at Lin Yilan's face.
He always felt that her mood was not as happy as he imagined.
Lin Yilan naturally felt his gaze, but she was always thinking about things, so she didn't care about it.
Back at the door of the hotel, Lin Yilan saw that there was still half an hour before the meeting. She told Xiao Chang, "You go to eat first. I have something to discuss with Wang Gong."
After that, she strode towards the hotel.
Xiao Chang was stunned for a moment, and quickly shouted at Lin Yilan's back, "Master Lin, do you want me to bring you a dinner?"
Lin Yilan made an OK gesture, "Okay, I'll trouble you, I'll do whatever you want. You can order whatever you want."
When she arrived at the hotel, Lin Yilan did not choose to go back to her room immediately, but knocked on the door of Wang Liming's room.
"Master Lin, have you just come back?"
Wang Liming looked at Lin Yilan's outfit and stepped aside to give up her position.
Lin Yilan walked into Wang Liming's room and stopped at the entrance.
"Gong Wang, I'm back from the interview. How are you preparing for the meeting later?"
Wang Liming walked into the room, picked up the information on the desk and handed it to Lin Yilan's hand. "I've prepared the meeting preparations as you requested. Everything I said is listed, do you think there is anything else that needs to be said?"
Lin Yilan pushed her bag behind her, leaned against the wall next to her, and read the information in her hand.
"By the way, how was today's interview?" Wang Liming leaned against the table and turned the ashtray on the table.
Lin Yilan closed her book and briefly walked through the interview process, focusing on her "plan".
"...I'm not sure if they will want to participate in the bidding meeting for the Federation of Industry and Commerce Building project after saying that."
"Although I don't like those reporters deliberately digging holes for me, but I can use It would be a good idea for them to make this project less fishy."
Lin Yilan's quick wit really shocked Wang Liming.
She had a solution to the trouble they only found out about yesterday.
"Master Lin, don't worry, I won't mention what you just said to me again." Wang Liming understands that this method cannot be exposed.
After the two nodded silently, they looked at each other and smiled.
