Chapter 141: What does it mean to have the confidence to do well?
It was already dark, but Li Zhiying hadn't moved since she returned to the dormitory. She was too lazy to even turn on the lights. She just stayed quietly in the dormitory. She didn't eat and deliberately punished herself. She thought that by punishing herself, she could punish others as well.
Women’s minds are amazing.
In fact, she didn't feel hungry at all, because her thoughts were full of someone.
What was Li Zhiying waiting for? She glanced at her phone unwillingly, sighed and threw it down again. Damn it, so hateful. It had been a few days and there had been no messages or calls.
She must be a little angry, she had to be angry, but she was also a little confused.
Li Zhiying didn't know whether she should continue to be angry or not. This man said that he loved her very much, but he refused the opportunity to come to the city company to be with her.
And I know that I am angry because he didn’t come to see me on the weekend. Now he hasn’t bothered to call or message me for two weeks.
Could it be that Chu Yang is really like what Pei Yu said, and is the same as those scumbags. Once he gets your body and knows you thoroughly, he will lose his patience and sexual interest in you?
She was definitely angry last week.
Because the damn Chu Yang had no conscience at all, she had used up a lot of courage to help him get the secondment position, but he actually disagreed. She just wanted to punish Chu Yang, so no matter how Chu Yang contacted her, she would not reply.
But this week, she has slowly calmed down.
But suddenly there was no news about Chu Yang, as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth.
She had already prepared a plan in her mind, and was just waiting for Chu Yang to call and apologize, and then she would give him a way out. After all, she was just being coquettish and angry to save face, and couldn't a girl act a little bit.
But this selfish man simply doesn't have such patience.
In the darkness, a ray of light from the building opposite shone in and hit Li Zhiying's pale face, making her look particularly sad and beautiful. Her thoughts were in a mess, and the pain was like running water, slowly accumulating and converging directly in her chest, forming a clear knot.
She was tied up.
Time passed second by second. She slapped her thigh gently and got angry with herself again. She opened her phone, went to Chu Yang's Taobao store, clicked around randomly, and bought more than a dozen pieces of clothing in one breath.
She felt like she had vented her emotions and felt better.
As expected, the end of the universe is the Northeast, the end of live streaming is selling goods, and the end of being a woman is shopping. She even gave Chu Yang's Taobao store several bad reviews, hehehe...
Finally it was nine o'clock in the evening. The lights outside were bright, but the house was as deserted as before. Li Zhiying was in the darkness, feeling extremely lonely, unable to sit or lie down.
That feeling of anxiety took over her body and mind. She kept checking her phone again and again to see if there was any message from that bastard. No, still no.
Finally, she had no choice but to pick up her phone, open the address book, and click on the person with the note "middle school boy". She looked at the number for a long time, wondering if she should take the initiative to call the number, but she hung up as soon as she dialed the number.
She remembered Pei Yu's words, persistence is victory, doing so will ruin yourself, it will be too low in status, and you will feel too cheap. If you compromise once, you will be the most humble one in love in the future, and men will not cherish such a woman.
Ding ding ding. Just when Li Zhiying was feeling melancholy, the phone finally rang. Her plump chest couldn't help but tremble. She snatched the phone, thinking it was Chu Yang, but it was her best friend Pei Yu.
She sighed, adjusted her mood, answered the phone, stroked her hair, and deliberately made a sad and complaining voice: "Hello..."
Pei Yu smiled slightly and said, "What's the matter, my Miss Li? Hasn't he come to you on his knees yet?"
Li Zhiying was annoyed: "No, not only did he not come to see me, but now he hasn't even called or texted me. Pei Yu, what do you think I should do? Is he...will your method work? What if he really ignores me? I..."
Pei Yu smiled easily: "What? Li Zhiying, what are you afraid of? What are your conditions? How dare Chu Yang ignore you? You have to stay calm. This is a game of chess. You can't give up the initiative."
I have to say, female best friends are really scary. They are the biggest obstacle in love.
Li Zhiying felt relieved after hearing Pei Yu's words, but she was still a little unsure. She said softly, "Pei Yu, why don't I take the initiative to call him? I don't want to fight with him anymore. I'm in so much pain. I just want to be with him."
Pei Yu got angry, as if she had seen through all the men in the world, and directly scolded: "Zhiying, you can't make this call no matter what. If you do, you will be completely defeated. After that, Chu Yang will be at your mercy. Men will not like a woman who has lost her initiative. In the end, they will break up anyway. I have seen too many examples like this."
Haha, dear women, please stay away from your female besties.
Li Zhiying was conflicted again. It was her first time to fall in love and she was very serious about Chu Yang. She longed for love and wanted to be with Chu Yang, but she was indeed afraid that Chu Yang would abandon her. After all, Chu Yang was getting richer and richer.
She thought about it and decided to suppress the idea of calling.
After hanging up the phone with Pei Yu, Li Zhiying lay on the bed, looking at the night outside the window, lost in thought, recalling every detail of her time with Chu Yang. Suddenly, a man's figure appeared in front of her eyes. This man looked exactly like Chu Yang.
Handsome, tall, with a pair of fiery eyes.
"Chu Yang, don't go."
When Chu Yang turned and left, she yelled, then suddenly opened her eyes.
However, I realized that there was nothing around me, it was dark and empty, with only my own hands on my body.
She suddenly felt ashamed and pulled the quilt over her head.
In the dark night, only her soft crying could be heard.
…
Chu Yang really didn’t know Li Zhiying’s mental journey, and it was difficult for him to understand.
Because men and women are different, men's minds are not as delicate. It's not that Chu Yang doesn't care about Li Zhiying, but he can't contact Li Zhiying, so he has no way to do anything.
In Chu Yang's heart, love is not gained by begging, but by mutual attraction. What Chu Yang can do is to show up in the municipal company with his own strength and fulfill his promise of working in the municipal company within three years.
But he didn't have time to think so much now, because he was also surviving in the cracks, dealing with the department's work chores and dealing with various complex personnel relationships.
Also, Chu Yang must start studying in advance now. No, he should review the knowledge about smart substations that he learned in his previous life. President Chu has already said that he plans to let him be in charge of the new smart substation.
He decided to achieve something to prove himself and to Zhiying.
Prove it to everyone.
Because today is September 18th, the provincial company made an important approval and agreed to pilot the 220kV smart substation in the Butai area. The Butai Company will be responsible for the construction of the project, and the municipal company will be responsible for supervision and guidance.
After receiving the news, President Chu was a little excited and immediately convened a production meeting of the company's top management to begin implementing and discussing this major event. After all, this was indeed a big deal.
Why did the provincial company pilot such an important project in Butai?
This thing really has a cause and an effect. Because last time for the 35kV Julu substation, Butai Company completed a miracle project in 30 days and created the fastest speed of the company's 35kV substation, which left a deep impression on the leaders of the provincial company.
So we directly approved it and hope that Butai Company will achieve greater success.
At this point, some readers may ask, didn’t the transformer explode?
Yes, that's right, it exploded.
The explosion only covered a small area, only in the Butai area and in Niaobula. However, at the level of the superior company, it was successfully put into production as scheduled and completed perfectly.
The glory of the Butai Company is also the glory of the municipal company, so in many cases, they will cover up if possible.
Chu Yang was also called to this meeting. This was Chu Yang's first time attending such a high-level meeting. He was a little nervous. After all, he was only an acting deputy director. When others saw Chu Yang come in, they all cast questioning glances at him.
But the company is full of highly qualified people, and they won’t make sarcastic remarks or anything like that.
Chu Yang sat next to his department director Yang Dewei, gently placed a notebook on the table, and waited. At this time, President Xie glanced at him and smiled, which made him feel a lot more at ease.
Soon, President Chu came in full of energy. He did not have too many opening remarks and directly cut into the main content of the meeting: "Today, the provincial company has approved our request to pilot the 220kV smart substation. This will be the most important major project of our company in the second half of the year. All departments must be fully alert and strive to complete the construction of this substation. The provincial company approved us to build the project in six months, but President Wen of the municipal company expected four months, and I asked for three months. Now it is September 18th, and we must put it into production before the end of the year at the latest. Comrades, time is short and the task is heavy. We must concentrate all our strength to overcome this difficulty together. I don’t want the problem of Julu Substation to happen again. Let me be frank. Whoever loses the chain and has a problem, which causes the company’s project to go wrong, I will be the first to remove his position…"
Mr. Chu's passionate speech moved everyone. Everyone was concentrating, with their heads down, writing something in their notebooks with pens.
They are all fucking pretending, but Chu Yang is the same. In fact, he didn't write anything. He just kept writing Li Zhiying's name over and over again. He was thinking about something in his mind. The provincial company gave a construction period of six months, but the city company directly wanted four people. Now look what happened.
Mr. Chu, you directly asked for three months. Isn’t this a typical case of adding layers of demands?
I'm screwing you, this project is absolutely unreliable, it won't be another Julu substation, right? Chu Yang was a little scared inside, this was definitely a hot potato, it's better not to take it.
Chu Yang glanced at Mr. Xie out of the corner of his eye. He looked very contented, with his legs crossed, sipping tea attentively, as if it had nothing to do with him. What kind of person was he? Chu Yang began to hope that he would not give him the project.
Mr. Chu spoke incessantly and drooled for about half an hour, emphasizing the importance and significance of the project. At the end, he closed the notebook and said, "That's basically all I have to say. Let's see if Mr. Xie has anything else to say." Mr. Chu turned his head towards Mr. Xie.
Mr. Xie then raised his head, put down his teacup, coughed and said, "Mr. Chu just explained all the requirements, very thoroughly and comprehensively, so I won't say anything more. Everyone should follow Mr. Chu's instructions and carry them out conscientiously."
After saying that, he smiled at Mr. Chu, clearly with a hint of flattery in his eyes.
So fucking official, so fucking proper.
Mr. Chu hummed, without making any comment, and turned to Director Pang in the office next to him and said, "Old Pang, what about you? Do you have anything to say?"
Director Pang was stunned for a moment, twisted his neck, and moved his butt on the chair. He was not President Xie, and President Chu asked him to speak, and he had to say something. So he picked up the blank notebook in front of him, looked at it very seriously, and then started talking.
"I also think that Mr. Chu has already said it very comprehensively. I want to add something, but it seems that there is nothing to add." He laughed like a niffer and said, "However, this time the provincial company can hand over such an important project to our Butai company, which fully demonstrates the provincial company's attention and trust in our Butai company. We really need to work hard and make achievements. There must be no mistakes. We must give the provincial company a perfect answer. But I believe that as long as we strictly follow Mr. Chu's instructions and unite as one, there will be absolutely no problem."
This is a very good flattery. Don't do it again in the future.
President Chu also nodded, and then nodded to Yang Dewei: "Director Yang, what do you have to say? This time it's not like the 35kV Julu substation. The whole province is looking at us."
Director Yang seemed to be prepared and immediately stated: "Boss Chu, please rest assured. Last time, it was indeed due to various reasons... But this time we have learned from experience and have been tempered. Everyone in our department is ready. This time we will go all out and will definitely not let the last thing happen again."
"Well, I have already covered the problem last time. Let me emphasize again here that if similar problems occur this time, you will bear the consequences at your own risk." Mr. Chu said lightly and turned to Mr. Xie: "Mr. Xie, I am not a professional and I don't know much about engineering. I still need you to pay more attention to this project."
Mr. Xie immediately nodded and responded: "Mr. Chu, you are too polite. This is all my responsibility. But have you decided on the person in charge of this project today? It would be better to intervene and track it in advance."
President Chu also nodded: "Yes, otherwise Director Yang, you can take charge personally."
Upon hearing this, Director Yang's face turned green, and he stammered, "Hey, Mr. Chu, this is a new smart station, I..."
"What's the matter, Director Yang? Are you planning to just muddle through? You should keep learning throughout your life. If you don't understand, go and learn and ask. We also need to keep pace with the times." President Chu criticized, a little dissatisfied.
Chu Yang also felt a little relieved. This arrangement was pretty good.
Who knew that Mr. Xie would say, "Mr. Chu, don't embarrass Director Yang. Young people are more receptive to this. I think we should let Chu Yang take charge, and Director Yang will coordinate and ensure the logistics work in the rear."
Chu Yang's scalp went numb when he heard this.
Director Yang nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Chu Yang is a college student with strong skills. There will be absolutely no problem letting him take the lead, hehe."
President Chu then turned to Chu Yang and said, "Chu Yang, how are you? Do you have the confidence to do well?"
What can Chu Yang say? If you don't have confidence, don't f*cking look for me?
It's all fucked up.
"Boss Chu, I can't guarantee this, but if the company trusts me, I will do my best."
