Yin is love: the reversal of women chasing men

Chapter 11: Ink Attack (1)
Xie Mei came back from Singapore and brought several bags of snacks to Cheng Yin, and what Cheng Yin returned to her was a few bags of clothes and a calm sentence, "I'm planning to change jobs."

Xie Mei's thoughts were all on beautiful clothes, "Then let's dance, it's not uncommon to jump in these days."

"I want to go into consulting."

Only then did Xie Mei withdraw her attention from her clothes, and stared at Cheng Yin in surprise, "What did you say? You, you want a consultation?"

"Yes!" Cheng Yin answered forcefully.

Xie Mei was worried, "Why haven't you come out of the shadows? Why are you doing this? Even if you are angry with others, you don't have to be so desperate! You said you did a good job in your original industry..."

"I'm not angry with anyone, I just want to fight!"

Thinking of the scene where Yang Fan used himself as a child, Cheng Yin straightened her spine, "I want to join a company that is much stronger than his company, and steal its customers and performance. This is called standing on the shoulders of giants." Hit the autumn wind."

"..."

"Of course, this is just one of my goals. My other goal is," her eyes began to become serious, "find a boyfriend who is more successful than him, and I want him to impress me one day! "

Cheng Yin's eyes sparkled because of this oath, and there were little stars rippling inside, Xie Mei was dumbfounded, and she sighed after a while, "It's too terrible to be born to hate because of love!"

"I'm not kidding you."

"I know you're serious, but how can you guarantee that you can jump into that industry? It has to be a big company, and it has to be a high-end business. The threshold is not low!"

"Where there is a will, there is a way!" Cheng Yin was not shocked at all, "Wu Shihong even worked as a cleaner when he joined IBM!"

"You don't want to start as a cleaner, do you?" Xie Mei looked at her delicate hands with a half-joke.

"It's not that miserable! I plan to start as an assistant."

"Already have a goal?"

"Well, AST is recruiting a department assistant, and I have already submitted my resume."

"AST?" Xie Mei frowned, thinking, this name often appears on the customer list of their hotel, "Is it AST, the top consulting company in the United States?"

"Exactly."

Xie Mei took a deep breath, trying to keep her tone calm, "Cheng Yin, I think you can try it, but it's best not to have too much hope, this company can..."

"Okay, okay, don't pour cold water on me, I am determined to win, and I will succeed even if I get caught in the unspoken rules!"

Xie Mei had no choice but to swallow the following advice, once Cheng Yin lost her temper, no one could stop her.

Xie Mei is not optimistic about Cheng Yin's cross-industry job-hopping, no matter in terms of work experience and various hard and soft conditions such as ability to withstand pressure.

However, there seems to be something called a "miracle" in this world.

A week later, Cheng Yin screamed on the phone telling her, "Xie Mei Xie Mei! Can you believe it? I'm accepted by AST!!!"

Xie Mei immediately screamed back, "What! Are you really under the unspoken rules??"

"Fuck you!" Cheng Yin laughed happily, "I was just joking with you! There are no rules, anyway, I really succeeded this time!"

That night, Xie Mei deliberately turned down an important dinner, and met Cheng Yin to eat her favorite hot pot.

"If you go deep into the tiger's den to carry out your grand plan of revenge, I'm afraid that someone Yang will see through it at a glance?" Xie Mei teased her with a smile.

"There is no way to see through it!" Cheng Yin seemed to be proud of herself, "No one can stop the rolling wheel of history—but I have warned the third brother not to talk too much."

Xie Mei imitated her soft tone, "What does your third brother think about your career change? Has he also seen through your mind?"

Cheng Yin flat-mouthed acquiescence, with Tang Ye's IQ, it goes without saying!As soon as he heard the news, he didn't say much, and staring at Cheng Yin with a pair of eyes with deep meaning was enough to make her feel furious.

She didn't want to stay on this topic, so she asked Xie Mei instead: "You are quite sure about my third brother's reaction! How about it, I will ask him out someday, and you two can talk?"

Xie Mei giggled for a while and said, "Let's talk about when he changes the brand of that car!"

Cheng Yin also laughed.

This is the first time Cheng Yin has let out a bright and cheerful laugh since that unlucky embarrassment. Xie Mei thinks that no matter whether she gets promoted after the job-hopping or lives are worse than death, this moment is worth celebrating.

Two glasses full of red wine collided in the air, and Xie Mei, who was slightly drunk, said with a smile, "Come on, let's drink to Cheng Yin's struggle!"

On the first day of work, Cheng Yin's straight-line boss Gao Xiang did not return from a business trip. A colleague named Liu Zongwei received her. From the business card he handed over, Cheng Yin learned that he was the project manager in charge of a certain group, but he Don't let her call herself Manager Liu, "Just call me Ellen."

Liu Zongwei spent a morning giving induction training to Cheng Yin, introducing AST's glorious history and AST's business status in the world, especially in China. His confident and proud expression infected Cheng Yin, and she was excited to finally be on the right track.

When introducing the main customers and partners of AST China, Cheng Yin was stunned when she found that Yingrui Consulting Company, where Yang Fan worked, was listed in the list of AST's partners.

In this way, Yingrui and AST not only do not have a competitive relationship, but are also very close collaborators. Wouldn't her dream of "standing on the shoulders of giants and fighting the autumn wind" be shattered?

"Uh... Ellen, I'm sorry," she raised her hand to interrupt Liu Zongwei, "Can I hear about the cooperation between AST and Yingrui? How...how did they start?"

Liu Zongwei twitched the corner of his mouth, his expression seemed to be praising Cheng Yin's sharpness.

In fact, Yingrui’s background has already been roughly introduced to Cheng Yin just now. A little-known small consulting company was able to put its hand on AST’s shoulder without losing the opportunity to hook it. There must be an unusual reason, but he didn’t say it clearly. That's all, I didn't expect Cheng Yin to "see clearly", which is an indispensable trait in their line of work.

"Three years ago, Yingrui was still a chore company that did everything. The business volume was small and the staff turnover was fast. It can be said that it was very unsatisfactory. Later, their investors did not know where to find out about a person who had worked in the American consulting industry. Those in the industry who have been in the industry for several years intend to return to China for development, so they recruited him. After joining, relying on his contacts in this circle, he made a great success, and then... well, it was natural to establish contact with our company. "

"That man...what's his name?" Cheng Yin asked knowingly.

"Andy Yang, Yang Fan."

Hearing Yang Fan's name from someone else, Cheng Yin had a very strange feeling. Of course, there was no lack of frustration. It seemed that her plan A had been ruined before it was implemented.

The plan really can't keep up with the changes.

But she quickly comforted herself, it's okay, I still have a plan B.

In such a big company full of talents, she couldn't believe that she couldn't find someone better than Yang Fan.

She was thinking wildly, when Liu Zongwei suddenly dropped the whiteboard marker in his hand and asked, "So you belong to a German-owned enterprise?"

"No, the company is run by an Italian." Cheng Yin answered casually, not understanding why he asked such a question.

"Then you have to be careful, Gordon, oh, it's Gao Xiang, he doesn't like people from Italian companies very much."

"Why?" Cheng Yin's heart trembled, where did he start from, could it be the so-called downfall?
"Well...he has worked with the Italians before, saying that their thinking is notoriously chaotic."

"It can't be." Cheng Yin said awkwardly, "Our place...is okay!"

But she immediately thought of the chaos in the department at the end of each quarter, which was like a war, and her confidence was lost in an instant.

"Gorden has three principles in recruiting people. It doesn't recruit Italian companies, doesn't recruit J bigs, and doesn't recruit women."

A string of ellipsis representing speechlessness flew through Cheng Yin's mind, "Why is that?"

"The reason for not recruiting students from J University is because there have been a few students from J University in the department before. All of them are ambitious and talented, which makes people disgusted; as for not recruiting women, it is mainly because the work intensity here is relatively high, and girls may not be able to bear it. Don't be under pressure. Anyway, these are the principles of Gordon's recruitment, and the HR department knows it."

Cheng Yin was dizzy when she heard it, and asked with a dry smile, "If that's the case, why am I still here?"

"The reason is very simple, you were not recruited by him."

"..."

"As soon as our department's recruitment permit was approved, Gordon went on a long business trip. By chance, his boss Robert came over to take over the recruitment matter. Robert likes to use girls and thinks that girls are better at things. Careful. After the interview, he once said that you are the most natural among the few applicants. Although your spoken language is a bit stuttering, it is still clear. And, the most important thing is," he paused slightly, and his face floated A meaningful smile, "He married an Italian as his wife."

In short, the intertwining of a solid academic background and a few coincidences made Cheng Yin return to shit luck. She really didn't know whether to be lucky or unlucky.

"However, it doesn't mean anything if you enter the AST. If you don't do well, you may leave at any time during the probationary period."

Any company has the same rules and regulations, but when it comes from Liu Zongwei's mouth, it makes people restless, and Cheng Yin feels like a muddled cow.

Is it possible that she and Xie Mei's joke about the "hidden rules" should come to fruition?
But no matter what, you have to see what the other person looks like first!She has grown up so much, and she has never had a complete relationship, so this sacrifice is too great.

Seeing Cheng Yin's serious face, Liu Zongwei lightly smiled and eased his tone, "Don't be too nervous, what I just said is the company's rules, but Gordon is not bad, and he takes good care of his subordinates. Besides, " He suddenly changed his serious expression, and winked at her playfully, "You are the only female colleague in our department, we have to keep you no matter what!"

At this point, Cheng Yin realized that Mrs. Liu's seriousness just now was just pretending, and her almost convulsed heart finally recovered, "Thank you Ellen! I will ask you directly if I have any troubles from now on, okay?"

When you first arrive in a new environment, you are always used to grasping at the straw you encounter first, and Cheng Yin is no exception. Moreover, she still has a sense of awe-inspiring and unapproachable fear of her imaginary boss Gao Xiang.

"No problem!" Liu Zongwei answered freely, and after a little pondering, he said: "Gorden will be back the day after tomorrow. According to the usual practice, he will talk to you first."

"What are you talking about?" Cheng Yin's eyes sparkled, "Can you give me some hints?"

"I think he'll tell you three things."

"First," Gao Xiang turned around in front of the whiteboard, without a trace of a smile on his face, "If you don't understand something, you should ask in time, and figure it out as soon as possible, don't pretend to understand."

Cheng Yin nodded vigorously.

"Second, it's not terrible to make mistakes. What's terrible is that you lack the courage to admit your mistakes and cover them up with other mistakes. I don't want you to be the same kind of person."

Cheng Yin nodded vigorously.

"Third, you may work overtime at any time, and you must be mentally prepared."

Cheng Yin took a deep breath and nodded again.

Before meeting the boss, Cheng Yin knew that no matter what the boss looked like, she would not be able to carry out such a high-risk and difficult task as unspoken rules. Now, looking at Gao Xiang's unsightly but monolithic face, she couldn't help it. Added several points to the difficulty factor of this impossible task.

Since he has no guts to take risks and wants to survive here, the only way out is to work hard.

Gao Xiang arranged for Liu Zongwei to take her with him, which was exactly what Cheng Yin wanted.

After joining AST for a week, Cheng Yin found that, unless there was a meeting that he had to attend, his colleagues usually did not come to the office. Carrying Chengyin to go to the customer site together.

Working with Liu Zongwei is very easy. He is quick-witted and cheerful. After getting acquainted with him, he is willing to tell Cheng Yin everything. He really taught her a lot of basic knowledge.

This occupation is not a little different from Cheng Yin's previous material management position.Here, new things happen every day, and when she sees those colleagues who can independently carry out projects in the conference room and analyze the customer's problems thoroughly, she suddenly feels admiration, as if something has been destroyed. silently inspired.

It would be great if one day she could stand on the stage and strategize.

But right now she is far from that goal.

The emails from her colleagues are full of countless specialized vocabulary, which is like a book to her; Gao Xiang even typed back the several reports she handed in intact, with circles marked in red pen on them. Chacha made Cheng Yin feel terrified. According to the situation, wouldn't she and AST not be far away from Sayanara?
But being anxious is of no use at all, Cheng Yin can only rely on overtime to make up for her blankness and ignorance.

She showed her enthusiasm for overcoming CET-[-] and CET-[-] when she was in college. She first got familiar with various specialized vocabulary, gradually figured out what was said in the email, and then went to the overall picture and details of the several projects she was involved in. No need, she studied everything carefully.If you really don't understand, just ask. Sometimes Liu Zongwei is not around, so she has the cheek to ask unfamiliar colleagues.

Of course it is impossible to gain nothing.If she wants to learn more, she has to do more things and be sweet-mouthed, so she never hesitates to run errands for others and type up a few more documents. In this way, if she has any questions to ask others, the other party will be ashamed to say nothing. Sent her away.

Gao Xiang is a workaholic, or the kind who takes the office as his home. When he locks the door every night and finds that there is someone crazier than him at a certain point in the hall, it is inevitable that "the same is the end of the world." "Sentiments.

So, in front of Cheng Yin's gradually decent report and sweet smile, his prejudice against her slowly melted away like ice in the sun.

After changing jobs, Cheng Yin's uncharacteristically busy schedule made Zhou's mother suspicious of her job-hopping.

"I said you can change the unit if you change the unit, but you can't change it like this! It's like signing a contract of sale! What are you trying to do? The salary is so high? I didn't hear you mention it! Nine to five is great, you can go shopping on Saturdays and Sundays, look at you now, you are muttering while walking, what do you look like!"

Cheng Yin smiled and said, "Mom, I quit because this industry has a future!"

Mother Zhou thumped her sore legs, "I don't understand that there is no future, and earning more money is the last word. You work so hard, when did the boss promise to give you a raise?"

Cheng Yin diligently made a cup of honey water for her mother, then sat beside her and said, "Making money is second, as the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. If you think about it carefully, what is the most popular in today's society? That's absolutely It's the ones who play tricks are the most popular! What do you rely on to play tricks?"

She pointed to her head, "Of course it is here! The ancients have said that those who work hard will rule others, and those who work hard will rule others - aren't you a living example? You must have earned a lot last month, right? "

Mother Zhou immediately became proud, and pointed out two fingers to her, "This number!"

Cheng Yin snapped his tongue, "Twenty thousand? Mom, you definitely belong to the high-salary class now!"

The old man who was taking care of the plants on the balcony immediately sighed heavily, "What a high salary! It's not all money from relatives and friends."

Zhou's mother's face suddenly lengthened, she was not happy, "How can this be called cheating? There is a company with a contract, and the interests are guaranteed, how can this be called cheating!"

The old man put down the kettle and walked in, "Then why don't you try to sell to strangers! See if you can sell it, my friend can't help it, give us face!"

"Hey! Zhou Yuanzhi, why don't I just persuade Lao Xu to buy two insurance policies for his wife? They didn't say anything, so you need to get angry here? He's willing to buy it because he trusts me... ..."

Cheng Yin stuck out her tongue, sneaked back to the room amidst the endless arguments of her parents, and continued to delve into the data. Anyway, the debate about whether mother's job is legitimate or not is endless in this family.

The first month of entering AST has passed without any wind and waves. The Spring Festival is coming in a blink of an eye, and walking among relatives is indispensable. Except for the necessary entertainment, Cheng Yin spends the rest of the time at home doing homework. The seven-day long vacation is precious, and it gives her a good time to catch up.

Although working at home is hard, the good thing is that you are free. You don't have to report to the company every day, you can control your time, and you can sleep in in the morning. This is the enjoyment that Cheng Yin has not seen for a long time.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, even the parents were too lazy to run away, and the family of three cats were making food at home. Of course, the chef was still the father, and Cheng Yin would also run to help him when he was resting.

Zhou's mother is now the most profitable member of the family, and the economic base determines the superstructure, so she justly leaves many housework alone.Although Father Zhou had resentment, but after he retired at home, he had nothing to do except fiddle with the potted flowers on the balcony, so he became the number one nanny just like that.

This day, I eat wontons at home. This Cheng Yin is good at it. The meat fillings of the wontons she makes are thick and never fall apart. They are stacked one by one on the chopping board, and they are cute and cute.

The old man stood side by side with her, with a loving smile on his face, but what he said made Cheng Yin feel like thunder.

"Yinyin, did Li Hui's cousin named Yang Fan chase you a while ago?"

"Uh...ah??" Cheng Yin trembled, and the skin almost slipped through her fingers, "It's nothing, who are you listening to nonsense!"

The old man smiled, "Don't lie to me, when you said you went to work overtime, you didn't go to the company at all, you went to meet him, no wonder you came back that night with a bad face."

Cheng Yin's mind froze on the spot, when did Dad become Di Renjie.

After a long while, she remembered and asked, "Is... Li Hui said it?"

Her question confirmed the rumors even more.

The old man said: "How could Li Hui tell us? Yao Yuan said it unintentionally. When your aunt heard it, she couldn't help but tell us."

"Auntie still praises you!" Mother stepped into the kitchen, "She is often squeezed by Li Huiming's secrets, you put that amazing cousin she often sings like this, don't you auntie Ti is so relieved!"

Cheng Yin's little heart trembled and trembled, Yang Fan was wronged this time.
