Star Media Helmsman

017 Volunteer Takes the Hook

Lin Weiran's office is on the third floor of the company, which is the small cubicle where the creative department has always placed sundries. The newcomer said hello and then went back to his busy work.Lin Weiran prefers the creative department directly led by Huang Rencheng to the relatively leisurely financial department. As the department that generates the most revenue in the company, there seems to be an indescribable vitality here, which makes the whole office look full of vitality.

Holding a copy of William Ahrens' "Contemporary Advertising" leaning back on the chair, Lin Weiran continued to expand his knowledge. Always dealing with numbers, he prefers examples rather than those concepts and conclusions. This book is from miscellaneous A lot of notes were made on the books sorted out in the book, and the various popular explanations in it made Lin Weiran, who was dizzy with the definitions similar to the explanation of nouns, brighten his eyes.

Of course, there is no shortage of specific planning schemes in the notes, and there are very unique insights into key parts such as the "halo effect" and "the exact application of soft advertisements".Accidentally found a treasure, Lin Weiran re-screened the books among the miscellaneous items, except for a few old [-]th edition magazines that were really boring, he also discovered "modern public relations", 'Media Economics', 'Popular Psychology' and other related books and periodicals, without exception, have detailed notes, and it seems that they are all written by the same person.

Linking these notes together is a valuable asset. Lin Weiran simply combined several paragraphs of notes in several books to write a theoretically impeccable advertising plan. Although he knew that there was a gap between theory and reality, A short distance, but being able to do this with only a few records is enough to prove the gold content of these notes.He began to be curious about the owners of these books. Seeing these things piled up here like garbage, their owners might have left long ago.

Lin Weiran has always been very quiet in the office, although he needs to communicate more with his colleagues when he first arrives, but his damn fame always makes him unpopular.After the revelation of the personal proposal included in the report, those guys who always troubled him on weekdays seemed to suddenly understand that they needed to do their own things, and none of them came to him for help.

Lin Weiran, who is always looking for work everywhere, seems to be enjoying his time at leisure. He no longer walks around various departments of the company with a warm and honest smile, and no longer pretends like a clown that he doesn't understand some people's cynicism. For these veterans who have been in the workplace for some years, the fight between Fang Zhihe and Lin Weiran is enough to arouse their vigilance.One side is the real power of the company, and the other side is a complete newcomer. There is a huge difference in power, but the winner has not yet been determined. If Lin Weiran has no background, only ghosts would believe it.

"Wei Ran, I have to wait for a fax this afternoon, can you go for me?"

Hearing the reputation, Lin Weiran looked at the man who spoke, and he looked familiar. Lin Weiran often saw him flirting with a woman with curly hair when he was in the finance department.Seeing that there are several staff gathered behind him watching curiously, it is estimated that this is another trick to bully newcomers.

After putting away the bookmark, Lin Weiran put on a foolish smile, and said honestly: "No problem, since it's senior's request, I will definitely do it."

"Thank you then."

The smile on the man's face made it impossible to see the slightest falsehood, but when he turned around, he immediately put on a show-off look. He walked back into the small circle of two or three people, looked at the back of Lin Weiran leaving the office, and flaunted: : "I said he must listen to me, you have a look, right?"

These people were amazed by the man's showing off, and murmured in their hearts, could it be that the rumors are wrong, Lin Weiran really has no background?

One person asked: "Isn't Minister Fang very displeased with this newcomer? He's still in the company after such a long time. Doesn't he really have a backer?"

"What backstage? It's just that President Huang thinks his proposal is good." The man said disdainfully, but then remembered Lin Weiran's getting a public welfare project, and said bitterly, "It's just a newcomer who doesn't understand anything. I don’t know what is reporting step by step, and I really don’t know where such a treasure comes from.”

He looked at his colleagues around him again, and said with a smile: "Just like me, you can just make fun of him, and he can do this too."

Such things have happened almost every day in the past few days. Sometimes they are copying documents, and sometimes they are waiting for faxes. Of course, Lin Weiran knows what this 'senior' is thinking, because sometimes the workplace is like a school. A 'soft guy' who is often bullied for everyone's entertainment, and this senior seems to have made up his mind to push Lin Weiran to the position of this 'workplace soft guy'.

There are no chairs in the copy room, because of this 'senior' Lin Weiran once stood here for an hour.He leaned against the wall next to the fax machine and flipped through the "Contemporary Advertising" in his hand, with a calm expression, so that no one could see the slightest bit of shame or anger.

One page, two pages, three pages, a full three 10 minutes passed, and the fax machine finally beeped.Lin Weiran glanced at the front page of the fax. The familiar Chinese made him forget to put the bookmark and closed the "Contemporary Advertising" in his hand.It wasn't until the whole piece of paper was slowly spit out by the fax machine that Lin Weiran held it in front of his eyes and examined it carefully.

The fax came from a foreign trade company in China. The content in Korean except for the company name did not bother Lin Weiran. He read the fax word by word, much more seriously than reading the "Contemporary Advertising" in his hand.It took a full 5 minutes for the fax machine to print all the materials. When Lin Weiran saw the price appendix at the back, a smile slowly appeared on his face.

He murmured, "The fish is hooked."

……

In her sophomore year, Lin Weiran, who was finally willing to endure his temper and stop running amok, once learned fishing skills from an old professor. At first, because he had to get up early every day, and he had to take a bus for more than an hour to the suburbs of the city, he finally reaped the rewards. Lin Weiran also complained about the rare cases.The old professor never said anything about his complaints. The gray-haired old man just opened his own little horse and sat by the pond fishing for the whole morning.When Lin Weiran was finally able to face all this calmly, the old man finally said something with a smile.

"The willing take the bait."

Lin Weiran was speechless, because he insisted on waking up early every day and spending the whole morning in front of the pond.Just like now, after leaving the finance department, he has no reason to contact these materials again. Being a 'workplace jerk' may not be very popular, but it is the most effective means to achieve his goal.

A few steps away from the fax machine is the copier, and Lin Weiran, who has been waiting for almost an hour, has no shortage of time.

The night breeze brought a rare coolness in summer, and the air was still filled with the smell of coffee. There were no hurrying crowds beside Myeongdong Station, but it still didn't look deserted.Couples of couples accentuate the solitude of the man, who stands by the roadside with a briefcase in his suit and leather shoes, as if his work is not over yet.

A Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle slowly stopped on the side of the road. The man opened the door, first bowed slightly to the person inside the car, and then sat on it.

"It's better to keep it secret. In this kind of public place where people come and go, I really don't know what you're pretending to be in your mind." Before Lin Weiran could speak, a familiar voice came from the co-pilot. The voice, seeing that man turned his head, it was indeed Gu Huan's face that deserved to be beaten.

Guo Dahua laughed and said: "It seems right to say that, Wei Ran, the place you chose is not very good."

Lin Weiran gave Gu Huan a hard look, then scratched his head and said, "Actually, I just think it's convenient to go back to the dormitory and take the subway here."

"Why, are you worried that I won't even be able to take you back to the dormitory?" Guo Dahua asked softly, it sounded like a joke, but Lin Weiran listened to it.

He quickly said: "No, I just think it's better not to waste your time."

"Haha, if you want to say that you are busy, you are quite busy now. On the one hand, you have to familiarize yourself with the situation in the Shinhan commercial, and on the other hand, you also have to pursue girls. The time is really tight."

Guo Dahua's tone was like a bad friend, but the content of the words made Lin Weiran wish to strangle Gu Huan to death. He scratched the back of Gu Huan's head, and then he listened to Guo Dahua like a young boy. Hua's emotions came from people's nagging.

"It's not me, you Chinese are just too reserved. Korean girls are very enthusiastic. Don't scare you when the time comes. We Weiran are a rare good man."

good man?Hearing this word, Lin Weiran always felt something strange.He poked Gu Huan's head hard with his finger, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Gu Huan is now one of the best investors under me, and I plan to let him learn more from me." Guo Dahua replied on behalf of Gu Huan, "This kid has a good eye and a keen sense of smell. He has learned a lot in two years, and now he can apply what he has learned.”

Perhaps it was because the listeners had intentions, but Lin Weiran always felt that Guo Dahua was stimulating himself again to apply what he had learned, but he didn't get what Gu Huan got. The posture of listening to the teachings seems to be without complaint.

"Tell me about that girl, I really didn't expect that I would be able to facilitate your karma. What's the matter? Do you want me to prepare your wedding present now?" Guo Dahua's kind-hearted appearance really has the demeanor of a kind senior, but 'marry' This word made Lin Weiran's eyes widen in fright, and he didn't even mention the relationship, so marriage is too far away?

He said awkwardly: "It hasn't reached that time yet, and when it comes to that time, it may not be her."

"Because she wants to be a star?"

Gu Huan even said this?Lin Weiran's face tightened, and he said: "There is also a relationship in this aspect, and we don't know each other well now."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, what do you like about her? She is beautiful, has a good figure, can talk, or temperament? These are not problems, and it is not a problem in front of powerful people." Guo Dahua restrained his smile, which is rare. Seriously, "The power a man needs most is not in his face, let alone his mouth, but in his hands and on the bed. If you have the power, you can make her look as you like, anything!"

He stared at Lin Weiran closely, and said again: "Today you are in the position of a staff member, tomorrow you may be in Gu Huan's position, and the day after tomorrow? Who can guarantee that you will never be in my position? Now is Your world is over, we middle-aged people in their 40s are almost useless old guys."

Lin Weiran listened silently, without sincere compliments, and only calm on his face.For a person of Guo Dahua's level, hiding your ambitions in front of him is almost equivalent to hiding evil intentions.

There was silence in the car for a while, neither Gu Huan nor Guo Dahua spoke again.Lin Weiran knew that Gu Huan would definitely inform Guo Dahua about his situation, and this was not considered a betrayal, because if the two switched positions, he would also tell what he knew.He saw that Guo Dahua was baiting, it was for him, and it was also for Gu Huan.

This is another version of the wisher taking the bait. Compared with Lin Weiran's, Guo Dahua is obviously several levels higher. The amount of bait is different depending on the opponent you face. It is only a fool to use earthworms to catch whales. will do it.Just like Lin Weiran was fishing for superficial greed, but Guo Dahua was fishing for ambition buried deep in his heart.

"Shinhan Advertising, any news?"

Finally, Guo Dahua broke the silence and went straight to the point.
