Chapter 117: Zhou Zhefeng's Background, Lin Siqi's Request
Chen Jianghe never expected that after New Year's Day, when he had dealt with the stock investment and had time to lead the three regions of Tianhe, Yuexiu and Haizhu to make an all-out sprint to sign contracts, a dark horse suddenly emerged in the team.
Zhou Zhefeng.
When this guy came to apply for a part-time job before, Chen Jianghe didn't pay much attention to him. He just thought that he was just hot-headed in pursuit of Lin Siqi and would leave after working for a few days.
Unexpectedly, after a period of dormancy, his signing performance suddenly reached the top of sales.
"Third brother, who is this Zhou Zhefeng?"
After the routine morning meeting, Li Jun came up to Chen Jianghe and asked in a depressed tone, "He didn't do anything for a while, but he suddenly started to work hard during the New Year's Day holiday and surpassed me in the number of orders he signed."
Chen Jianghe looked at Li Jun in surprise and said with a smile, "He has a short-term burst, but you have a continuous output. This month has just begun and the future is uncertain. Why are you frowning?"
"It's really freaking bad that my performance has been surpassed by the newcomers."
Li Jun scratched his head and said, "When you were hosting the morning meeting just now, I reflected on it carefully. The main reason is that I have been lax recently . During the New Year's Day, I went back to the dormitory to sleep early after running business until 10 o'clock every night. If I insisted on running for two more hours every day like usual, I would definitely be able to sign more orders."
When Chen Jianghe heard this, it was as if there was sand in his eyes, and he felt a little tearful. He couldn't help but reach out and pat Li Jun on the shoulder: "Brother, just do your best, don't try too hard."
Li Jun shook his head seriously and said, "I have to fight hard. You pay me so much salary and bonus every month. As a brother, if I don't fight for you, am I still a human being?"
Chen Jianghe was deeply moved. After all, they were roommates, so they had to be cared for and protected. So he continued to persuade him, "You have to combine work with rest. Business is just your starting point. After a while, my position will be yours."
"Then I have to work harder. Otherwise, even with the support of my third brother, others will not accept it."
Li Jun suddenly became excited, thinking that since Third Brother was so sincere to me, how could I cheat? He clenched his fist and rekindled his fighting spirit, saying, "No more talking. I'll go to the sales department and try to negotiate the takeaway business with Taotaoju and Fishermen's New Village."
"Well, go ahead."
Chen Jianghe nodded.
After Li Jun left, Chen Jianghe called Lin Siqi over and asked casually, "Zhou Zhefeng's contract volume suddenly exploded. What do you think?"
"I don't want to watch~"
Lin Siqi smiled and shook his head.
Chen Jianghe glanced at her and said, "I don't know much about Zhou Zhefeng. I asked you to come here because I want to find out more about him."
"Oh, I see."
Lin Siqi put away his smile and asked seriously, "Are all the orders he signed concentrated in the Tangxia Village area?"
"Yeah." Chen Jianghe nodded and said, "There were a few old employees who were doing development there before, but they didn't sign any orders after several days of grinding. He is a newcomer, but he signed 52 orders during the three-day New Year's Day holiday. It's a bit outrageous."
Hearing this, Lin Siqi smiled and said, "It's not that outrageous actually."
Chen Jianghe looked at her puzzledly.
Lin Siqi didn't keep the secret and said directly; "He is a native of Tangxia Village. His father is a village committee cadre, and his grandfather used to be the village chief."
"I see."
Chen Jianghe suddenly realized.
Tangxia Village in eastern Guangdong is a very famous urban village. It is called the "Guangdong Paradise" by many migrant workers because of its cheap rent and low prices. It covers an area of less than 10 square kilometers, but has a population of 20,000 to 30,000.
The village cadres of this village are no less powerful than the township-level cadres in third- and fourth-tier cities.
The restaurant stall owners in the village knew Zhou Zhefeng's family background, so they didn't need him to visit them at home. They all took the initiative to find him to sign contracts.
"Among your suitors, are there any locals like Zhou Zhefeng, whose family background is related to the village committee?"
Chen Jianghe asked Lin Siqi with a smile.
"It seems there is another one, but it's far away in Huadu District, too far from the main city, so it should be useless."
Lin Siqi thought for a moment and answered.
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "There are so many boys chasing after you, and there are many powerful characters among them."
"Yeah, I'm also very popular."
Lin Siqi smiled, his eyes moving, and then changed the subject: "But I already have someone in my heart. No matter how others chase me, it's all in vain."
Chen Jianghe knew what she was hinting at, but he didn't respond. He smiled and changed the subject: "What do you think of Li Jun?"
"Li Jun?"
Lin Siqi touched his chin and said, "He is serious about his work, has a quick mind, has a strong desire to make money, and is very hardworking. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes in the future, he will definitely be able to make a career."
"You are a good judge of people. My roommates often joke that the donkeys in the production team are not as hardworking as him." Chen Jianghe smiled and affirmed: "Many times, I am moved by his hard work. I always feel that he is not working hard just for the money."
"Boss, don't you know that Li Jun has already met Shen Yue's parents?" Lin Siqi suddenly said.
"I haven't heard him mention it." Chen Jianghe shook his head.
"Shen Yue's parents are a little bothered by the fact that Li Jun is from another place, and they told him clearly that if they want to talk about marriage in the future, he must buy an apartment in eastern Guangdong, otherwise there is no point in talking about it," said Lin Siqi.
Hearing this, Chen Jianghe couldn't help but sneer and said, "Go ahead and persuade Shen Yue to tell her family not to look down on young people because they are poor. Li Jun will be able to easily buy a house by the Pearl River in his next semester of college."
"The boss and I think the same thing. In fact, I have advised her a long time ago that she must seize a boy like Li Jun. Once she misses him, she may never meet someone who is willing to work so hard for her in her life." Lin Siqi said.
Chen Jianghe was slightly moved.
Indeed, once you miss some people, it will be difficult to meet them again in your life.
"Boss, I also want to seize the opportunity. How about you take me home during the winter vacation so that I can get acquainted with my uncles and aunts?" Lin Siqi asked him with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation.
Chen Jianghe looked at her deeply, and the figures of Xu Zhixi and Yishu appeared in his mind at the same time. He smiled and shook his head: "Next time, my parents' schedule is full during this winter vacation."
Lin Siqi: “…”
"It's okay for classmates to come visit me, or for subordinates to come and wish me a happy new year, right?"
Lin Siqi refused to give up easily.
This time, Chen Jianghe considered it carefully and nodded: "Okay ."
"Hmm?" Lin Siqi's eyes sparkled. While he was delighted, he was also worried that he was lying, so he said hurriedly, "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. You have already agreed to it, so you can't go back on your word, and you are not allowed to lie to me."
Chen Jianghe said seriously: "I won't lie to you, as long as you follow the rules."
"No problem, I will definitely do my best!"
Lin Siqi agreed readily. She looked so overjoyed that her eyebrows and eyes curved into crescents.
"Counselor, high school classmate, secretary, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, that's enough."
Chen Jianghe sorted them secretly in his mind.
