Chapter 85


Jian Shiwu stood up straight in shock.

Gu Duan thought that he was beaten, so he grinned: "So, I advise you, don't waste your time. What are your conditions, what are his conditions? , don't you have enough points?"

Jian Shiwu was still immersed in his own thoughts, and when he heard the words, he said softly, "Ah..."

"Ah what?"

Gu Duan saw that he didn't give up, so he simply asked, "What does your family do?"

Gu Duan looked at him.

Jian Shiwu stood in front of him, and the boy with red lips and white teeth answered swiftly: "Business."

"..."

After saying this, Gu Duancai noticed that Jian Shiwu was covered in famous brands, with fine skin and tender skin. The meat doesn't seem to have suffered any hardships. At first glance, it looks like a child soaked in sugar water. Since the family is in business, they should be very rich, but it must be far worse than Ji's.

Therefore , Gu Duan raised his eyebrows and said, “ You are quite well off yourself, so what are you doing climbing him? Is it the Ji's wealth? Ji's wealth is not what you can imagine. In the future, he will definitely marry an equally wealthy wife. Remember that."

He expected that after he finished speaking, he could admire Jian Shiwu's somewhat hurt and lost eyes, but when he raised his head, the pair of eyes facing him were calm, clean and beautiful.

Then Jian Shiwu smiled and said, "The Ji family is very rich, right?"

Gu Du nodded: "Right."

"If they are so rich, and they have enough money, why would they marry someone from a wealthy family for money? "Jian Shiwu touched his chin: "It doesn’t make sense."

?

Gu Duan choked, but he didn't answer for a while.

Jian Shiwu smiled and said, "Could it be that the person you say he’s in love with is indeed also a wealthy lady?"

Gu Duan didn't know.

All he knows is that Shen Cheng has a little baby who is held on the tip of his heart and treats like jade. So many people have passed on that little baby as a heavenly fairy.

Gu Duan retracted his wandering thoughts and looked at the beautiful boy standing in front of him: "It's none of your business, they’re definitely better than you."

Jian Shiwu: "...Oh."

Gu Duan looked at him and said heartlessly: "You think you're filming an idol drama, such a big president doesn't like the golden girls and heavenly beauties, what makes you think he can fall in love with you? At most, it's just for fun. I advise you only for your own good, don't keep thinking about what you shouldn’t okay?"

He didn't mean anything else, but he accidentally poked Jian Shiwu's lungs.

The cannon fodder and protagonist Even idol dramas don’t do such plots.

There was a smile at the corner of Jian Shiwu's mouth, still such a bright smile, but it looked sad: "Don't worry, I know it all."

Gu Duan choked.

Jian Shiwu was obedient, he should be happy, but looking at his smile like that, he felt even more panicked. He regretted what he just said, but he still didn't add anything else. Jian Shiwu, who was working, had already left the room, and the only thing left was the stack of documents sent by the young man.

Gu Duan was silent for a while, picked up the documents and looked at them, but when he opened a certain page, he saw a familiar note mark. Before, he had seen that Shen Cheng's notes and they were always reviews of various documents approved and marked , and this time, he actually saw the familiar annotation of the translation on such an ordinary page, and the annotation was very serious. This scene was a bit magical and a bit funny. It is no less serious than seeing a university valedictorian seriously doing 1+1 equals 2.

"Shen Cheng...was helping him with his homework?"

Gu Duan was taken aback by his guess. After all, according to his thoughts, Shen Cheng would not like those pretty boys.

"Ding ding ding" an intercom phone rang.

Gu Duan picked it up. It was a call from the secretary at the president's office: "Mr. Gu, when will the new plan from the project team be given today, so I can arrange it."

Gu Duan said, "it's fine at noon."

"Okay ."

This was a routine call every morning, and logically it can be hung up, but what Secretary Wang didn't expect is that when he was about to hang up, Gu Duan said, "Last night... Jian Shiwu was with Shen. Are they always together?"

The secretary paused: "You’ll have to ask the employee himself about that."

"I already know."

Gu Duan was inexplicably concerned, he said, "But doesn't Mr. Shen have someone he likes? How could he... still be with Jian Shiwu."

The other end of the phone was silent for a while, then Secretary Wang smiled and said, "But no one ever said that it wasn’t him."

"..."

This world is too crazy .

........

At ten o'clock, it was time to reassign the jobs. The interns had been flying solo for a few days, and this time it was finally time to group up.

Sister Li at the front said, "Next, I will announce everyone's total scores in the past few days."

Jian Shiwu: 230 points

Su Yuluo: 298 points

Jin Zhe: 309 points

Sun Liman: 223 points

A score that many people did not expect, after all, at the beginning of the assignment when the scores of all the people were announced, the person who suffered the most from the education here was Jian Shiwu, but they did not expect that this boy from an ordinary college was actually not the worst.

Sun Liman smiled at Jian Shiwu: "Shuwu, it's not wrong, is it?"

Jian Shiwu was polite and modest: "It's just a fluke."

Sun Liman praised Jinzhe and said, "It's you, the score. So high, our number one here!"

Jin Zhe smiled and said, "I didn’t have much luck, so I could only work harder."

The words didn’t hide the connotation.

The relationship between the four interns was not very good, Jian Shiwu and Jin Zhe are even more silent to each other. Only the relationship with Su Yuluo waz better.

The audience also saw it in their eyes:

"Jin Zhe's words are really emm..."

"Come on four eyes, talking about yourself?"

"Jin Zhe is already very good."

"Old ying and yang people, really? "

No? No matter how the audience evaluates, the task still has to be divided.

Li Li said: "Since everyone has been practicing for several days, we have a relative recognition of everyone's strength. Now there are two cases. We need you to follow up. In the end, we will make a decision based on the progress of the two groups. The combination with the highest degree of completion will get the prize..."

The rest of the people pricked up their ears.

Li Li smiled and said, "Our prize is 300 points."

Very tempting.

"Go Workers" is a program with a points system. After three months of career shooting, the person with the highest points in the end can get Ji's endorsement. This is not just an endorsement. Ji is the largest company in the world. It covers a wide range including: mobile computer electronic products, the most popular games, entertainment video software operation, the daily turnover is over 100 million.

That is to say , getting Ji's endorsement, means you become a brand ambassador for their famous mobile phones and computers, or even the spokesperson of major popular games. It's a top-level resource. It can be said that if Ji's family wants to support someone, as long as the promotion is overwhelming, it can cover people's lives large and small.

Sun Liman had already exclaimed: "Such a high score!"

Sister Li nodded: "You are in a group battle. There are two people in each group. This time the project is limited to one week. If it fails, 50 points will be deducted.

They didn't expect it to involve a deduction of points, the crowd looked at each other with different expressions.

Then it was time for grouping. The lottery mode was adopted. Those who drew a pair of numbers formed their own group. Jian Shiwu got 2 from the box. Before he opened his mouth, there was a somewhat harsh voice. : "Who is 2?"

Jian Shiwu turned around and met Jin Zhe's eyes.

At this moment, they both saw unpleasantness in each other's eyes, but their acting skills were good, at least they were smiling.

Jin Zhe stretched out his hand: "Since we are a group, I will take good care of you and strive to get 300 points."

Jian Shiwu smiled: "Please advise."

The audience is also watching the play:

"Why are these two so unreassuring together?"

"Hahaha, I think so too."

"I don't think it's wrong if they don't fight."

"Watching a play."

Sister Li said : "Since the groups have been divided, 1 is group A, 2 is group B, you choose a group leader and come over to receive the plan."

Jian Shiwu looked sideways at Jin Zhe, and saw the boy push up his glasses and said: " Shall I go?"

"Okay."

Although Jin Zhe looked quiet, he was very controlled and expressive, and after being the first to go up and get the proposal, he didn’t care about his teammate, he came back and started to read it first.

It's the previous sister Li who said: "You need to pay attention, this time you will be connecting with our real customers, and, in the Shiwu group, our colleagues have already contacted your client before, but the other party has not reached an agreement. To be precise, it has been docked three times, all of which have failed, so when you deal with them, you can refer to the experience of previous people who contacted them, you know?

Jian Shiwu said, "Got it."

Jin Zhe already considered himself the leader of the group, but Sister Li skipped him and explained to Jian Shiwu directly, which made the always proud Jin Ze frown secretly.

The other group had already taken the documents back.

Jian Shiwu said to Jin Zhe, "Let's go back and have a look."

Jin Zhe nodded: "Yes."

The client was the head of a large pet brand chain, who had recently expanded in City A and wanted to work with Ji's R&D to design a separate app for their brand, and the maintenance fees for several of these features, and even the costs involved, became a point of negotiation between the two side The main person in charge of this case was Yao Tao, the woman with short hair who interviewed them.

Yao Tao said, "This is a small client, so I'll leave it to you to negotiate with the other party. If the negotiation is successful, it will be the best.

Jian Shiwu inquired nervously, "Is it an importang deal?"

Tao smiled and said, "Then let our people talk. Anyway, we have failed a few times before. It's not much to add one more."

"...Okay."

Yao Tao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on.”

After that, the woman left with confidence, leaving Jian Shiwu and Jin Zhe to start watching the project.

Jin Zhe said: "I have all the plans of the previous seniors. We will give concessions that we can make in response to the problems that the other party is not satisfied with, come up with new feasible plans, and make an appointment in two days. Meet the client."

Jian Shiwu said, "Okay, then I'll come..."

"Just help me sort out the information." Jin Zhe stopped him?: "I can just write the plan."

Jian Shiwu frowned.

JinZhe pushed his glasses and said, "Because... I think working as an assistant on the 18th floor before means you’re inexperienced. I also followed a project two days ago, so writing this is not bad. If you have some ideas, you can help."

There's nothing wrong with what he said, but looking at it carefully, it's very problematic.

Because the group that wins doesn’t get 300 points together, the person who performs the best can score 300 points. Jin Zhe took all these core things under his wing, clearly wanting to keep the 300 points to himself, not giving his teammate the chance to perform. Even if Jian Shiwu had just followed him, he’d also have been able to learn, but he refused outright.

However, Jian Shiwu was not angry.

When Jin Ze raised his head, he met the smiling face of the young man: "Okay, then come on."

Jin Ze was a little surprised, but after he had achieved his goal, he didn't say anything, and continued to prepare for the plan. Jian Shiwu next to him was sorting out the information. In the process, he had figured out the specific process of the project. Maybe he is not better than Jin Zhe in terms of professionalism, but Jian Shiwu was in business since he was a child, watching from the side, so he knows the world of projects very well.

While Jin Zhe was struggling with those regulations, Jian Shiwu noticed that Lu Mou, the project leader, likes to keep pets very much. He has a very beautiful pastoral cat. This cat is not afraid of people and does not bite people. Lu usually even takes the cat with him when he talks about business. He has always had this habit.

The first two times he came to Ji's to talk business, Lu did not bring this cat.

Jian Shiwu said to Jin Zhe, "I think it's very strange. There is a customer data survey here. It is said that Mr. Lu would always have his cat by his side when talking about business, but this time we..."

Jin Zhe was writing the proposal document and did not want to hear it: "We are in charge of talking about business. What does it have to do with his cat? Just arrange the information and documents for me, and the others don't need to be read."

"..."

Jian Shiwu no longer chatted with him.

However, the audience in the live broadcast room had differences of opinion:

"I think Jian Shiwu was very careful since he was young."

"But Jin Zhe is right. He just wants to complete the task efficiently."

"It's not right, you are partners, can't you have a little more respect for your partner?"

"Hey...you're too young."

The sections they are in charge of were different. At the same time, Jian Shiwu has been assisting Jin Zhe to sort out the documents and materials he needs, while Jin Zhe concentrates on his work. They are expected to make an appointment with Mr. Lu tomorrow.

Jin Zhe said, "I'll give Mr. Lu a call."

Jian Shiwu had no objection.

When the call came through, Jin Zhe was full of confidence, but what he didn't expect was that the phone beeped a few times, and the other side answered, but he didn't have much patience: "Who is it?"

Jin Zhe said quickly : "Hello Mr. Lu, we are from Ji's here. We want to talk to you in detail about the specific issues of the APP. Do you think you have time tomorrow?"

Lu Renyi said: "I, I have no time recently. "

?

This is an unexpected situation.

Their cycle is only seven days in total. If they can't see clienf within seven days, no matter how much preparation they have done before, it will be for nothing.

Jin Zhe frowned and said, "Then when do you think you are free?"

Lu Renyi said, "I haven't had much time lately. Maybe next week. I'll be free next week."

If they don't come together, they will be declared a failure.

Just as Jin Zhe was panicking a little, Jian Shiwu, who hadn't said anything, came over, the voice clear and pleasant: "Mr. Lu, if you're busy, do you think it would be okay if we went over to your place?"

Jin Ze He looked at the boy next to him in shock.

The young man said softly: "No? It will delay your time too much, we have more free time, you can decide."

After these words, the other party hesitated.

After a while, Lu Renyi said, "Okay, then, come to our cat cafe in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. Uh, it's about two hours away. Do you think it's okay?"

Jian Shiwu smiled: "Yes."

This matter just finalized.

Jin Zhe looked sideways at Jane and said, "How did you know he would agree to us coming over."

"I didn’t know." Jiam shrugged innocently, "Just proposing to try, it's not like we’d be missing a piece of meat."

“....”

Jin Ze was silent.

For someone who had to be organised and have a plan for everything, a random person like Jian Shiwu was a big shock to him.

The audience also cheered:

"Little clever guy."

"This response is really fast."

"Shiwu at a critical moment."

"Baby is so cute, I'll give you all the tickets!"

"When I saw him, I remembered when I was also excluded from the workplace in 2019, cheer up, Jian, I vote for you."

A few days ago, the program team had started the audience voting channel for the guests, and everyone in the audience has the energy to help, and everyone can vote for their favorite guests, 10,000 votes can light up a booster energy ticket, and the booster energy ticket can win a lot of small implant endorsements for the guests.

At the end of the day, the guests after the recording can see the status of the energy tickets. The current order is:

Jian Shiwu: 1430 votes

Jinzhe: 640 votes

Su Yuluo: 890 votes

Sun Liman: 910

The votes were surprising to many people, because Jian Shiwu, who is not very good at business in the show, unexpectedly has audience affinity.

He was so dumb that when he first joined the workplace, he had to fight his way up so as not to look pathetic; he was so miserable that when he met a boss with an explosive temper, he could only swallow any bitterness in his stomach; he was so stubborn that when he was questioned, he would hold his breath and work late into the night.

He’s so awkward and tough, he seems to have the epitome of too many ordinary people in him.

He seems unfortunate, but he is so optimistic and positive. He smiles really beautifully, which makes people seem to ignore the injustice and suffering. Some people appear like the moon. Hanging high in the sky, bright and dazzling, when looking at him, even if it is a long darkness, it is not difficult to get through.



...

Jin Zhe sat in the car on the way back, looking at the number of votes, his eyes darkened, grievance slowly condensed in his eyes, making his originally beautiful facial features turn a little distorted.

Obviously he was the one who made the plan all day, obviously Jian Shiwu can only be regarded as an assistant, obviously he was the one who gives the most and the best, why can't the audience see him? !

"Jian Shiwu..."

When he read these words, he seemed to grit his teeth.

Jin Zhe turned off the screen forcefully, and he swore that he would prove his excellence to everyone.

The next day was an important day to meet with clients.

Jian Shiwu also prepared a lot in the early morning. He found through a lot of customer surveys two days ago that Mr. Lu really loves cats. The place where they met was a business building. Mr. Lu might bring the cat over there. So he specially learned to cook cat rice on the Internet and put it in the lunch box. If he sees it later, he will leave a good impression on the cat first!

"Ding ding ding ding."

A phone call came through.

It was Yao Tao's call from downstairs. Jian Shiwu went out to answer the phone, and went downstairs to help Yao Tao get a bag, and the car they had asked for arrived.

Yao Tao said: "Get in the car, you call Jin Zhe down."

Jian Shiwu remembered: "My bag is still on up."

"You can let Jin Zhe take it down for you." Yao Tao simply Say.

Jian Shiwu thought about it and thought it was okay, so he picked up his mobile phone and called Jin Zhe to ask him to help take down his bag. The person on the other end of the computer agreed reluctantly.

Upstairs, Jin Zhe started to pack the things he was going to bring this time. Because this Mr. Lu had a really good temper, and he was not easy to deal with, he brought a lot of information in a comprehensive manner.

When he saw Jian Shiwu's bag next to him, his movements stopped.

"What is this?"

Jin Zhe looked at the meat batter in his bento and frowned, "What's the point of bringing this to meet a client?"

He was disgusted when he remembered what Jian Shiwu said about cats. He hated people like Jian Shiwu who liked to do things on the side without getting down to work. He just couldn't compare him, the family wasn't good, the education wasn't good, and what he did wasn't up to scratch.

With that in mind, Jin Zhe took out the bento and put it aside, Jin Zhe just carried his bag and went downstairs.

...

Jian Shiwu, who just took the bag, hadn’t noticed anything wrong and the group was heading towards the destination.

After arriving at the place, they found that it was a relatively grand commercial and entertainment building. Yao Tao went up to prepare first. Jian Shiwu and Jin Zhe were waiting for Lu Renyi downstairs. When parting, Yao Tao repeatedly said: "This Mr. Lu has a bad temper? So, you two. Be prepared."

When the car came over, both of them were apprehensive.

Then, the car stopped, the door was opened, a man got down from above, and as he approached slowly, Jian Shiwu consciously widened his eyes, and in front of the photographer, he Almost incredulously shouted: "You..."

Fourth uncle?

Why are you here?

Isn't this his father's brother? He’d seen him before, but at that time his father called him... Lu Dazhu!

Maybe Jian Shiwu's eyes were too shocked. Lu Renyi was also shocked when he saw the person. He approached and said, "You two belong to the Ji company?"

Jin Zhe nodded: "Yes, hello, I am Jin Zhe, this is Jian Shiwu."

Lu Renyi nodded.

He looked at Jian Shiwu with some surprise and said, "Are you in the Ji company?"

Jian Shiwu nodded lightly, with a little ominous premonition. In the past, this fourth uncle was very open-mouthed and dared to make any jokes, especially since he and his father are brothers who wore open-crotch pants since childhood. So he knew their family very well, and also understood the inextricable connection between their family and Ji's family.

Sure enough, he heard Lu Renyi say: "You're really in the Ji company, that's no wonder, I'll just say, in the end, you're still kissing your partner. You really ended up with your little boyfriend..."

"Ahem!"

Jian Shiwu suddenly started coughing heavily, he raised his volume: "Mr. Lu!"
