Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 310 Liang Shuang wants to shoot a commercial in the swimming pool
In the office of the president of Pulin Capital, Zhou Xun came back from dinner and asked his assistant to call Jiang Xiaoguo in. He sat behind his desk and smiled, then looked at Jiang Xiaoguo who was standing in front of him with some trepidation and asked:
"Jiang Xiaoguo, I saw that you eliminated a company called Rong Jing in your mailbox?"
"Oh, yes!"
"I remember that company has also made some technological innovations around mobile transformation in recent years. Why don't you recommend investing in it?"
"Oh, Mr. Zhou, it's like this!"
Jiang Xiaoguo thought about it, his eyes rolling, and said:
"Although all companies are now transforming to mobile, I think technological innovation alone is far from enough. We also need to consider the user experience. Personally, I am not likely to use such products, so I don't think it is appropriate to invest in them!"
"Yeah?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was speaking so clearly, Zhou Xun smiled and said:
"No one really invested in it at the beginning, so it went bankrupt two years ago!"
"ah?"
"Do you think that no one ever reads the business plans in these mailboxes?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was in a daze, Zhou Xun threw the two summary documents of the business plan in the mailbox that she had sorted out earlier onto the desk and laughed coldly:
"You gave Yang Xiaorong two documents in total. The first one was barely acceptable. The second one, first of all, had a large number of errors, and secondly, the company information was not 100% correct. Finally, you deleted 273 emails. Am I right?"
Seeing that Zhou Xun had discovered her opportunism, Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but lower her head, thinking about what happened before. At the beginning, she had worked hard to organize part of the business plan and handed the summary document to Yang Xiaorong. As a result, Yang Xiaorong just glanced at it twice and passed it perfunctorily. Then he threw the document aside and started to browse Weibo and Douyin short videos.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Xiaoguo herself felt that the work she was doing was really insignificant, and there was no essential difference between it and looking for gold in a garbage dump. She couldn't help but relax the requirements for the next work. In addition, she was in a hurry to get off work that day to go to Youjia Financial Management to find Liang Shuang to solve Luo Yan's problem, so she deleted all the remaining 273 emails, thinking that Sister Xiaorong would not check them carefully anyway, and they were all junk companies, so it didn't matter whether she wrote a summary or not. Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaorong didn't find it, but Zhou Xun found it. Thinking of this, she looked at Zhou Xun and wanted to defend herself, but before she could say anything, Zhou Xun threw two documents on the desk to her and said:
"Fill me with all the documents you haven't read. You are not allowed to go back until you finish reading them!"
Picking up the two documents on the desk and preparing to leave, Jiang Xiaoguo hesitated for a moment before looking at Zhou Xun and retorted:
"Mr. Zhou, I think it's unfair!"
"What's the problem?"
"Other interns are busy with sales, but I'm just sorting out these emails every day!"
"Broken mail?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo, who was pouting as if she felt she had been wronged, Zhou Xun could not help but say in a cold voice:
"If this is how you view your job, then you should quit now and pack up and get out!"
"I'm telling the truth!"
Jiang Xiaoguo has always been a person who is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. Moreover, even rabbits bite when they are angry. Seeing Zhou Xun threatening her to pack up and leave, she directly retorted:
"These emails are terrible. The format is wrong, but the content is so weird. They are either selling cemeteries or eggs, and some companies are..."
"Who do you think you are?"
Without waiting for Jiang Xiaoguo to finish her words, Zhou Xun glared at her and shouted:
"You've only been doing this for a few days? Are you using experience instead of screening? These projects don't seem to be popular, they are rough and non-standard, but if there is a pearl among ten thousand grains of sand, you have missed a good project!"
"What good projects are found here? Aren't all the company's projects brought back by them when they run business trips?"
“Where do you think my first project came from?”
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was still unconvinced, Zhou Xun gave him an ultimatum:
"Jiang Xiaoguo, as your boss, I have three pieces of advice for you. First, when you find that your job is different from others, don't complain. Think about the gap between you and others, such as academic qualifications. Second, you can only do a job well if you think highly of it, and vice versa. Third, instead of spending time and energy bragging and trying to please useless people, you might as well look at what you can do. If you still want to work at Pulin, I want to see the sorted emails before tomorrow morning. Now, you can leave!"
"Okay, Mr. Zhou!"
After taking a last look at Zhou Xun's expressionless face, Jiang Xiaoguo walked out of the president's office with two documents. Just as Zhou Xun said, the most reasonable thing in the world is reason, especially for those in a higher position. What they say has a well-deserved nickname, called famous quotes, which those in a lower position can directly take as mottos. Because they are in a higher position, the reasons they say can be said to be more truthful than eloquence to a certain extent. Other inferiors either agree with this reason or shut up in the face of "fait accompli". Only when you have achieved certain achievements, you are qualified to overturn these "famous quotes". Just like what the two business tycoons said, one said that people who have a lot of books in their office don't read books, they are just pretending to read books, and the other said that he has a lot of books in his office and he likes to read books when he has nothing to do. Reading can cultivate sentiment, cultivate one's character, etc.
What the two people said were contradictory, but equally reasonable. They were of equal status and both were wealthy businessmen. They could just laugh it off at each other, at least on the surface. As for whether they were cursing in their hearts, no one knew. If they were ordinary people, they would generally agree with their views consciously or unconsciously, because they are "close to others with billions" and the life of an ordinary person is not even one-tenth of their "small goals".
It is only a joke for the inferior to verbally refute the superior, because "actions" are much more important than "words". In front of other people's "facts", your "eloquence" can only be described as pale and powerless, like laughable "sour grapes". This is the case with Jiang Xiaoguo and Zhou Xun. Zhou Xun taught Jiang Xiaoguo to rely on herself and not to please useless people. In his opinion, Judy is a useless person. But then again, if it weren't for Su Hang, if Su Hang's father, Mr. Su, was not rich and capable, he, Zhou Xun, would at most be an employee of others. At least it would be impossible for him to become the president of an angel investment company at such a young age.
It's easy to talk without any pain. He himself is a vested interest in "interpersonal relationships", but he wants to educate others to be "down-to-earth" and "work hard". From the perspective of universal values, "being down-to-earth" will always be more acceptable to the general public than "taking shortcuts". The result is that "the truth is often in the hands of a few people". The vast majority of people are "down-to-earth", so they can only be ordinary people. A few people "take shortcuts", so they are the superiors. In fact, in this world, "taking shortcuts" is far easier to succeed than "being down-to-earth", but the former is risky and the latter is more stable. Most people like to stay in their comfort zone and muddle through. On the one hand, they accept their ordinary and boring life, and on the other hand, they envy the beautiful women, luxury cars and villas of those successful people, and they also like to talk about all kinds of "famous quotes" and "moral standards".
Little do people know that in the bloody era of the rise of capital, every well-known large company is a "barbarian". After achieving success and fame, they become "Justice of the Peace", and after three generations they become the so-called "aristocrats". They then publicly educate others to "do their duty", to "be down-to-earth", and not to "cut corners", etc. The purpose is to create a cognitive attitude of "a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes!", to nip the problem in the bud ideologically, and to prevent the general public from having the idea and shouting of "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers different in kind?"
In this way, everyone will be civilized, and there will be no need to worry about later comers snatching the wealth and status of their descendants, resulting in the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. You are rich because you have ability, or your ancestors have ability, and you are poor because you don’t work hard. It seems to make sense at first glance, but only the poorer people think it makes sense, and the truly wealthy class will only sneer at it.
"Working hard to make money" is not as fast and comfortable as "robbing money". In ancient times, there was "robbing the rich to help the poor", but in modern times, there is only "robbing the poor to help the rich". People with resources and abilities have plenty of ways to "rob money" from the hands of the lower class in a reasonable and legal way, and fleece the majority of people, thus creating a "wealth myth" for a small number of people. There are more and more billionaires, and making money is even simpler, faster and less labor-intensive than "robbing a bank". Take venture capital as an example. The fundamental purpose of many companies is to go public and raise money. After raising the money, the company doesn't matter anymore. They are all billionaires. Who cares whether the company can continue to operate? The only ones who can pay the bill are countless small and medium-sized shareholders. Investing in the stock market is like picking up gold in a garbage dump. There are few good companies, but more and more garbage, and they are garbage valued at billions.
To sum up, all truths are "false", "constraints", and shackles imposed on everyone by others and even by this society. Survival of the fittest. There are not so many great truths in this world. Whatever is bigger is the truth. The law of the jungle, the strong prey on the weak. This is how people are, how they start businesses, and even how they govern the country. As long as there are enough interests, everything is false and can be broken. For example, when two countries go to war, the "peace elites" and "human rights defenders" headed by the United States will hold high the great banners of "for world peace" and "for humanitarianism" and put the "Teddy Bear" family at risk. Some of the "Russian bear's" assets will be "confiscated" and then given as "humanitarian compensation" to some poor people who have been harmed. As for how much to give, it is hard to say how much commission the organizer will get. For example, sell a 10 million US dollar mansion of the Russian bear to your own people for 5 million US dollars, and then use this 5 million US dollars to buy materials with an actual value of 1 million US dollars in your own factory, and then use your own transportation company to transport it. The freight and labor costs must also be paid. 10 million US dollars, and finally give 1 million US dollars worth of materials to the refugees. The loss of 9 million US dollars in the middle is not excessive, right?
Jiang Xiaoguo returned to her workstation with the two documents. Although she was not very happy about it, Zhou Xun was the president of Pulin Capital after all and held great power. In the company, what he said was the most important truth. Unless she really didn't want to do this job anymore, she could only obey him. After all, the leader's values were the employees' values. No matter whether he was right or wrong, no leader liked his subordinates to contradict him in person.
Night fell, and it was not until 9:20 in the evening that Jiang Xiaoguo finished all the previous work. As she expected, the remaining emails were all spam. No company was valuable. According to Zhou Xun, even if there was a pearl in ten thousand grains of sand, it would be worth it. But the question is, what if there is not? If you have the time and energy to find the pearl that may not exist in the ten thousand grains of sand, why not go to a place with greater probability to find it? It's like recruiting college students for work. Companies like famous college students and don't like college students from ordinary schools. Are college students with ordinary academic qualifications necessarily worse than those from famous universities? The result is not certain, but this is a question of probability. Why should companies waste time and energy to identify the ability of a person with ordinary academic qualifications or even no academic qualifications? From the perspective of probability, it is a high probability that famous college students are more capable than ordinary college students. With the same time and energy, you must do something with a high probability of success, rather than looking for pearls in the sand. It sounds beautiful, but it's a waste of money to do it. When you really find a low-quality pearl in the sand, people may have found countless pearls in the sea clams, as well as priceless black pearls and colorful pearls!
After finishing work, when Jiang Xiaoguo rushed back to the girls' dormitory, it was already 10:05 pm. She and Duan Jiabao gathered together to chat about Luo Yan, while Liang Shuang was following the online videos to do exercises to shape her body. In the corridor, Luo Yan dyed her hair orange-red and stood in front of the dormitory door, thinking about explaining it to Liang Shuang later and asking her to clarify it online, saying that she didn't push her on purpose, but was afraid that the pervert would hurt her, so she accidentally pushed her to the ground. Luo Yan thought to herself:
He pushed the door open aggressively, then walked straight up to Liang Shuang with a fierce look and a strong aura.
At that time, Liang Shuang would be very scared and say:
"What are you doing?"
"What do you say I do?"
I was very angry and asked angrily:
"You knew exactly why I pushed you, why didn't you explain it to everyone?"
"You didn't explain it yourself?"
"How can I explain myself? The video is right there. Will anyone believe my explanation except you? And the video is so misleading. Why did you have to upload it?"
"I really didn't mean it!"
"Then tell me, how do you want to solve it?"
I am so fierce, Liang Shuang will definitely be scared, he crossed his arms and trembled, saying:
"Then can't I clarify it?"
"That's more like it, let's clarify it quickly!"
…
With her mind wandering, Luo Yan took a deep breath, then pushed the door open and walked straight to Liang Shuang. Before she could get ready, Liang Shuang, who was stretching her body, almost bumped into Luo Yan who suddenly appeared. Before Luo Yan could speak, Liang Shuang spoke first and said fiercely:
"What are you doing?"
"I……"
Before Luo Yan could finish her words, Liang Shuang took a look at her pink-dyed hair and frowned, saying with disdain:
"What color did you dye your hair?"
"you……"
"Me what?"
Seeing Luo Yan acting strangely, Liang Shuang said fiercely:
"If you have something to say, just say it now. Don't hesitate. What do you want to do?"
"Never mind, it's nothing!"
Luo Yan, whose momentum was completely suppressed by Liang Shuang, walked dejectedly to her bed. Seeing her listless appearance and her particularly conspicuous pink hair, Duan Jiabao and Jiang Xiaoguo could not help but surround her and ask with concern:
"Shitou, what's wrong with you?"
"Shi Tou, what happened to your hair? Why did you dye it pink?"
"Turn off the lights, I want to sleep!"
As Luo Yan spoke, she put down her handbag, walked to her bed, covered herself with the quilt and began to sleep. Duan Jiabao looked at the time. It was only 10:05 pm, 25 minutes earlier than Liang Shuang's request to turn off the lights at 10:30. She looked at Luo Yan, who was covered with the quilt, and said:
"Shi Tou, it's only 10:05 and you're going to bed? Are you checking Weibo? Don't keep reading those comments. Talk to me about anything that's on your mind!"
“Turn off the lights!”
Hearing Luo Yan's loud shouting while covered in the quilt, Jiang Xiaoguo, Duan Jiabao, and Liang Shuang looked at each other. Knowing that Luo Yan was in a bad mood, in order to take care of Luo Yan's emotions , the three of them turned off the lights and went to bed more than 20 minutes earlier than usual.
In the dark, none of the four girls were really sleeping. Luo Yan thought about her mother. During the day, her mother sent a driver to pick her up from school and took her to the company. She also bought her pants without her permission and told her not to wear skirts anymore. It was obviously the pervert's fault, so why was she the one being punished? In a fit of anger, she dyed her hair a non-mainstream pink. Didn't her mother want her to be a "good girl" who didn't wear skirts? Then she had to be a bad girl who "dyed her hair"!
Duan Jiabao was browsing Weibo under the quilt, mainly Ouyang Yushuang's Weibo. She provided Ouyang Yushuang with good food, drink, entertainment and accommodation, hoping that she would post a Weibo to support Luo Yan. As a result, Ouyang Yushuang sold her out and followed the trend online, condemning Luo Yan with those spectators to get traffic and popularity. She was so shameless. Not only did she not do anything after taking the benefits, but she also turned the tables. It was really infuriating. No wonder she has always been tepid and can only play the personal maid around the third villain female. Not to mention the heroine, she can't even play the maid of the heroine. It may also be because there is too much hyaluronic acid on her face. Even the director and producer are unwilling to use her as a hidden weapon, so she can only jump back and forth between the 18th-tier actress and the 17th-tier actress.
As for Jiang Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang, they were both doing the same thing, which was chatting with Yuan Xudong on WeChat. Fortunately, it was not a video chat or a voice chat, but just typing and sending emoticon pictures. Yuan Xudong could still handle multi-threading. Not to mention two, even if there were ten at the same time , he could still chat with them. At most, he could just send an emoticon package. As for what it meant, you could guess it yourself. He didn't know it very well. Aren't emoticons just sent casually?
Ginger fruit:
"Xiao Dongzi, what movie are you going to see this weekend?"
"A love story between a man and a snake!"
"White Snake Origin?"
"Correct answer!"
"It seems to be a cartoon. Is this what you watch on the weekend?"
"What's wrong with cartoons? I just like watching cartoons. I want to be a man who still has a childlike heart!"
"You are the only one who still has a childish heart? You are so shameless!"
"When I was a kid, I liked pretty sisters. When I grew up, I still liked pretty sisters. When I got old, I still liked them. Do you think men are faithful to one woman and have not lost their childlike innocence?"
"Go to hell!"
"Okay, I'm dead now, goodnight!"
"you……"
At the same time, Liang Shuang:
"Yuan Xudong, I'm going to a villa in the suburbs to shoot a commercial this weekend. I have to wear a bikini in the swimming pool. I'm a little scared. Can you go with me?"
"What time exactly?"
"All day, okay?"
"Of course. By the way, how much did you get for this commercial?"
"Five thousand dollars, what's wrong?"
"Five thousand dollars?"
"Well, is it expensive or cheap?"
"I have an ad here, 10,000 yuan, do you want to take it?"
"What ad?"
"I recently joined an investment company that mainly deals in stock trading. I am one of the small shareholders. I would like to ask you to take a few photos and hang them in our company to inspire those young people and let them know that those who don't work hard to make money will never find such a beautiful girlfriend in their lifetime. What do you think of this idea?"
"Go away, I'm talking to you seriously!"
"Well, actually I like photography and body art. For 10,000 yuan, can you devote yourself to art once?"
"for example?"
"For example, some painters need naked female models to paint their paintings. How about I take a few photos of you without clothes?"
"Go to hell!"
"Very good, you are the second person who dares to say this to me tonight. From now on, I will never allow a third person to say the same thing to me!"
"Boring, I'm going to sleep, good night!"
"Well, I can't sleep, can you take a picture and send it to me?"
"Go away, I'm going to sleep, good night!"
"Good night!"
At the same time, Jiang Xiaoguo:
"Xiao Dongzi, what are you doing so slowly?"
"I just died and just resurrected. Sorry!"
"Psycho, speak human language!"
"Okay, I was just looking at the demi-humans and I thought they were pretty cool!"
"I know this. Stone also likes to watch demi-human anime. Immortal, right?"
"Yes, it is an immortal body. If I have this, I will no longer be afraid of my girlfriend's curse and hatchet. Isn't it amazing?"
"You're so awesome! Go to hell!"
"Can you change your catchphrase? I'm quite sensitive to the word death. What if I really die? I don't mind, but I'm afraid you'll feel guilty. I can't bear to see others get hurt. For your sake, you should change it!"
"What?"
"Like hate? The kind with a very coquettish voice, forget it, you'd better not say it, it's more appropriate for Liang Shuang to say it!"
"What do you mean?"
"I've thought about it carefully, and I think you're not really suitable for being a spoiled brat. You're more suitable for the silly and cute style, which is the kind that looks silly but feels cute. Do you understand silly and cute?"
"You～～go～～to～die!"
