Jiang Xiaorou¡¯s mother was busy cooking in the kitchen, while Jiang Xiaorou followed her mother¡¯s instructions and sat on the sofa in the living room to chat with Li Jingran. Her brother Jiang Xiaorou initially greeted Li Jingran and went to the kitchen to help Chen Mei, but for some reason she was kicked out by Chen Mei. After that, he sat next to his sister and listened to their conversation. , didn¡¯t interrupt, was very polite, and seemed to give people a very honest feeling.
The three of them sat in the living room for about twenty minutes. Chen Mei asked Jiang Xiaorou to put the dishes and chopsticks in preparation for eating.
Li Jingran came to the dining room next to the living room and found that the long table was already filled with a whole table of dishes. At first glance, he saw that there were at least ten dishes. Li Jingran thought that her mother must have been busy for a long time to entertain her.
After sitting down, Li Jingran took the upper seat. Initially, he refused, but Chen Mei, who couldn't argue with enthusiasm, had to "reluctantly" sit down.
After sitting down, Chen Mei hurriedly asked Jiang Xiaorou to pour wine for Li Jingran. Li Jingran looked at the liquor bottle on the table and found that it was a bottle of Wuliangye. Although he wanted to taste it, he had to drive at night, so he had to decline. .
"Well, Xiaorou, bring Mr. Li a bottle of warmed Weiyi!" Chen Mei said again. Weiyi is a dairy drink produced in Sifang, Li Jingran's hometown, and is very popular in southwest China.
During the meal, Chen Mei was very enthusiastic. She kept picking up dishes for Li Jingran, greeting her son and daughter, and toasting to Li Jingran. This enthusiasm was even better than when he went to Qiu Shuqi's house. His mother-in-law, Xie Yayun, treated him even more warmly, which made Li Jingran feel moved but also helpless at the same time.
Since Jiang Xiaorou¡¯s family are all from Xiamen, Chen Mei mainly cooks Xiamen dishes, which are mainly light. As an authentic Sichuanese, Li Jingran is not very used to eating. Probably because Jiang Xiaorou told her mother that Chengdu people like to eat spicy food, Chen Mei specially made two spicy dishes, one boiled beef and one spicy chicken. However, probably because they didn't make it often, the cooking was not very authentic.
When eating, naturally chatting is indispensable. Li Jingran, Chen Mei, and Jiang Xiaolong had nothing to talk about. There were a lot of topics to talk about with people of the same age as Jiang Xiaorou, but with her mother and brother around, it was not easy to talk about some things. Therefore, the protagonist of the chat was Jiang Xiaorou¡¯s mother, Chen Mei.
During the dinner, Chen Mei kept thanking Li Jingran, thanking him for taking care of Jiang Xiaorou and their family. Jiang Xiaorou was so willful and ignorant that she caused him a lot of trouble, and asked him to forgive her. A lot.
Then, Chen Mei boasted about Li Jingran, praising him for his young talent, his ability at such a young age, his future development will be limitless, and he will definitely die for becoming China's "Bill Guy", etc., a lot of compliments, so that Li Jingran didn't feel funny even if he wanted to laugh. He didn't dare to cry even if he wanted to. He was very speechless.
Afterwards, intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Mei began to inquire about Li Jingran¡¯s personal situation, asking him if he had any friends.
At this time, Jiang Xiaorou could no longer stand her mother's nagging and "nosiness". With a straight face, she told her mother not to ask questions, saying that Mr. Li already had a girlfriend, and she was very beautiful, and then He turned to look at Li Jingran, with an embarrassed and red face, and told Li Jingran not to mind, his mother just talked a lot.
Li Jingran naturally doesn't care about Chen Mei's nagging. For him, an orphan who has lost his parents, listening to the older generation chattering in his ears is already a very luxurious thing. Therefore, for Chen Mei Not only did he not feel bored by his endless chatter, but he felt a kind of cordiality that he had not seen for a long time.
Of course, except for that kind of insinuating things, trying to set up a matchmaking relationship with your daughter - if you want to ask, you can't ask it in front of Jiang Xiaorou! He would be so embarrassed!
All in all, Chen Mei¡¯s treat was generally a joyful one. Although the food was not to Li Jingran¡¯s taste, the family¡¯s enthusiasm infected him, and the various dishes that were not very tasty were extremely delicious in his mouth.
Finally, before leaving, Li Jingran originally thought that Chen Mei's attitude towards him would change after learning that he was a "famous girl", at least she would not look at him like a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law just now; but Chen Mei seemed not to have heard what Jiang Xiaorou said to her. Her attitude towards Li Jingran was still as warm and generous as ever, telling him to visit her home more often in the future and just treat this place as his own home.
On the fourth and fifth day of the lunar month and the sixth day of the lunar month, Li Jingran gave himself a three-day holiday. He started driving his two brothers Zhenwu and Zhenqing around in some scenic spots around Rongcheng in the popular Jeep Wrangler. Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan were visited by the three of them, and they also tasted a lot of local specialties. The three of them had a very happy time and had a lot of fun. Everything else was good. The only thing was that they were traveling during the Spring Festival.There are too many people, and the tickets for many scenic spots are too expensive, too deceptive, and seriously inconsistent with the income level of ordinary people. The mountains and rivers belong to all Chinese people, but they have been occupied by the local government in collusion with unscrupulous businessmen. It has become an inexhaustible source of wealth, which makes people sigh and sigh.
The seventh day of the Lunar New Year, February 9th in the Gregorian calendar, is the day when the company normally goes to work. However, in fact, most people were rushing towards Rongcheng one after another on the fifth and sixth days of the lunar month. By the day of work on the seventh day of the lunar month, basically everyone was there, and the only two or three who were no longer there were I asked for leave from the company and said I would arrive in the next two days.
The first day of work is a meeting. I spent the morning at Zhizi Super Translation and the afternoon at Zhizi High-Tech. At the meeting, Li Jingran looked forward to the company's development plan and strategic goals in 2011 to the participating employees, cheering them up and hoping that they would continue to work hard to create a new situation for the company and achieve greater success. And their income, We will also follow the rising tide and strive for greater surprises at the end of the year.
When Li Jingran said "surprise", everyone laughed, and then there was a burst of applause. Last year's surprise was really a surprise. The thickness of RMB exceeded almost everyone's expectations. Especially a few middle-level cadres, they have a deep understanding of it. Like Zhou Yan and Lei Zien, when Li Jingran was talking at the head of the conference room and making wishes, the two of them nodded understandingly and prepared to go find them after the meeting was adjourned. Li Jingran reported on the plans they planned to implement in 2011.
¡°Dong dong dong¡ª¡ª¡± Someone knocked on the door of Li Jingran¡¯s office.
"Come in!" Li Jingran called without raising his head.
"Leege," Kong Ying came in, "Are you free now? I want to talk to you." Kong Ying, who pushed the door in, walked straight to Li Jingran's desk and said.
"Haha, it's Kitty! I'm free! Come on, let's talk in front." Li Jingran stood up with a cheerful face, walked to the fabric sofa in front of the office, and sat down. In front of Kong Ying, an "excellent person" with a profound background, Li Jingran usually does not put on the airs of a boss, and usually keeps his posture very low.
The two of them chatted for a while and asked each other about the Chinese New Year, and then Kong Ying got down to business.
"Leege, I basically understand the company's business processes. From today on, I am going to go it alone, leave Xiaolei's business department two, and formally establish Zhizi Chaofan's business department three. I need to recruit people and recruit new people in the department. Member. Do you have any good recommendations? Let me tell you first, I won¡¯t accept anyone whose quality is too low. At least it must be of the quality of Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhou!¡±
At Li Jingran's strong request, Li Jingran refused to let Kong Ying call him Mr. Li, and could call her by his name directly. Kong Ying had to "reluctantly" agree to call Li Jingran by his English name, but only when she was alone with him. When the employee is around, she still has to maintain his "authority" and call him "chief"!
"Yes!" Li Jingran nodded, "The people under Zhou Yan and Lei Zien were all selected from the temporary translation groups of five foreign language colleges across the country last year. If you need, I can put the five I will give you the contact information of the translation team leader, and then authorize you to ask them to help you recruit people in the name of Tomoko Super Translation. It is February 8th, and in a few days, college students will almost start school. For those college students For fourth-year and third-year graduate students, this semester is their last semester, and it is also the last semester to find a job. Presumably based on Sophon¡¯s current salary standards, there will definitely be a large number of people who will be overwhelmed. Don¡¯t worry about your choice then. Less than real talent.¡±
"Okay! The first problem is solved. The second problem is that the 2011 Spring Canton Fair will be held in two months. Our business department three will also send people to participate in this Spring Fair!" Kong Ying has long since Lei Zien learned that all the foreign customers in her department were obtained from the last Autumn Fair, which was a "key move" established by the second business department. At that time, several standard booths that Li Jingran wanted were from Kong. Given by the delicate girl Ying. Now that she is setting up her third business department, she will naturally not forget this shortcut.
"Haha, no problem. Not only your three departments, but also their first and second departments have to send people to participate. The Canton Fair is still a very good publicity and promotion platform for our company. In recent years, the company will send people to participate. .
"Besides, Kitty, look at whether there are any other influential international exhibitions in the world. If there are, your international department can also send people to participate. Since it is the international department, it will be internationalized sooner or later. , go out and walk around more, look around more, maybe you can find some business opportunities." Li Jingran further suggested.
"Hey, Leege, I was about to talk about international exhibitions, but you said it. I have the idea of ??participating in international exhibitions, such as the Cologne Exhibition in Germany and the Milan Exhibition in Italy, which are very influential exhibitions. , we can just take advantage of these international exhibitions to make Tomoko super famous.Get angry. "
"Well, the idea is very good. I will also support these ideas of yours. However, I suggest that you'd better put up the framework of the third business department first, so that the third business department can basically operate, and then talk about going abroad to participate in exhibitions. "
"Hehe, of course. I didn't say I would go abroad now. I plan to lay the foundation first in the first half of the year, and then make full efforts in the second half of the year to fully roll out." Kong Ying stuck out her tongue.
"Okay. No problem. As long as you make a good plan and budget, I will give you the green light here. If you want people or money, I will give you my full support." For Kong Ying, one of Li Jingran's basic strategies is to employ people without suspicion and without using them.
