Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

"Nansun, since you've been working overtime all night, go back and rest first. I want to talk to Zhang Anren!"

"It's nothing shameful. I won't go in. If you have anything to ask, just ask in person!"

Jiang Nansun didn't know what her father was going to do next, so she was worried that Zhang Anren would be troubled, so she didn't leave.

Although she had some resentment towards Zhang Anren's behavior last night, she had figured it out in the morning after a night.

No one is perfect, and she doesn't ask for anything else. As long as Zhang Anren is not like his father, as long as he doesn't speculate in stocks or real estate, she can ignore some minor flaws.

Jiang Pengfei looked at his daughter Jiang Nansun helplessly, and said to Zhang Anren: "Okay, then tell me directly, I asked you to make a choice before, have you considered it?

Do you plan to wait five or ten years, until you become successful and famous, before marrying Nansun, or do you plan to buy your suburban house and invest it in the stock market, letting the interest compound and become the foundation for your future family?"

Jiang Pengfei's meaning was very clear. He wanted Zhang Anren to make a choice: either wait until he became successful in a few years before marrying Jiang Nansun, or sell the house and invest in stocks so that they could register for marriage next year.

Jiang Nansun didn't wait for Zhang Anren to answer, and directly retorted:

"Don't ask me. I've already answered that question for him. He won't wait five years, nor will he sell his house to speculate in the stock market. So forget it!"

"Don't listen to Nansun. I'm telling you, I've just invested in a stock, and it's been hitting the daily limit for a few days. But I'm short of funds right now. This is a great opportunity, and I hope you can cherish it!"

Jiang Pengfei did not argue with Jiang Nansun, but looked directly at Zhang Anren, intending to put pressure on him.

Zhang Anren chose the answer Jiang Nansun wanted without hesitation. He smiled and said:

"Uncle, I choose the first one. I believe that the relationship between Nansun and I can wait for five years.

Besides, I really don't know much about the stock market! So, I don't dare to take risks on things I don't understand. I still believe in stable and reliable businesses!

Jiang Pengfei looked at Zhang Anren with dissatisfaction and said, "You know what? For a man who lacks gambling instinct, it's impossible for him to have any major career development in the next five years!"

"Uncle, in terms of career, I believe that small steps can build a tower. Taking one step at a time is the wisest choice. After all, hard work pays off!"

"In that case, there's no point in saying more. Everyone has their own aspirations!"

...............

At the same time, after a short rest, Zhu Suosuo got up, washed, and drove to the company to work.

Because she was not in good spirits, Zhu Suosuo did not go directly to the company after getting off the car, but went straight to the cafe downstairs of the company, which is where the company's employees usually stay.

However, when Zhu Suosuo was queuing up to buy coffee, she accidentally saw her direct supervisor and master, Sales Manager Yang Ke, at the end of the line, and hurriedly shouted:

"Manager Yang, what would you like to drink? I'll be there soon, so I'll bring you one!"

"it is good!"

Hearing Zhu Suosuo's greeting, Yang Ke walked over while looking down at his phone and said, "Forget about the food, I just want a cup of American coffee!"

"Okay, then..."

Zhu Suosuo nodded, but before she finished speaking, a greeting came from behind her:

"Hello, Mr. Ye!"

"Hello, Mr. Ye!"

"Hello, Mr. Ye..."

Hearing the voice, Zhu Suosuo turned around and saw Ye Jinyan standing in line at the end of the team while sending a voice message.

From what he said, it seemed like he was explaining the work to his secretary Fan Jingang and asking Fan Jingang to invite someone to have lunch together.

Zhu Suosuo didn't think about anything else. After he finished sending the message, she asked loudly:

"Mr. Ye, what would you like to drink? I'll bring you a cup!"

Seeing this, Yang Ke, who was standing by, couldn't help but pull her back and whispered, "Don't talk, don't talk, don't talk...!"

But it was too late. Zhu Suosuo had already spoken, and her voice was quite loud.

Upon hearing the news, Ye Jinyan looked up and saw Zhu Suosuo turning around and looking at him. Standing next to her was Yang Ke, who had his back to him. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "Thank you, I don't need that!"

After saying that, he looked at Yang Ke's back and said, "Manager Yang, you have to follow the rules!"

Hearing Ye Jinyan publicly call out his name and ask him to pay attention to the problem of queue-jumping, Yang Ke hurried back to the end of the line, lined up behind Ye Jinyan, and said awkwardly:

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry. I was so busy chatting with the client that I forgot about this question for a moment!"

"Be careful next time. You're a senior executive at the company, and everyone's watching! Besides, if everyone behaves like you, how will others drink coffee?"

"Well, be careful next time!"

Yang Ke nodded helplessly, then stood behind Ye Jinyan without saying a word.

"Two Americanos, one regular, and one with ice, topped with skim milk, cold!"

Originally, Zhu Suosuo wanted to show off by treating everyone, but was scolded by Ye Jinyan to queue up.

So she turned around hesitantly and told the salesperson what she wanted to order.

Looking at the end of the team, Yang Ke felt a little uncomfortable because the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

When he saw Zhu Suosuo had already taken the coffee handed to him by the salesperson, he pretended to receive a phone call, said hello to Ye Jinyan, and left the queue.

"Mr. Ye, please wait patiently. I'm leaving first!"

Zhu Suosuo also understood what he meant and didn't make any unnecessary trouble. She said hello and hurried out of the cafe without waiting for Ye Jinyan to express his opinion.

This action made Ye Jinyan couldn't help but smile slightly. As a result, after a brief contact, he had a more intuitive understanding of the girl Zhu Suosuo.

Chapter 178 Wolf Culture

After Yang Ke and Zhu Suosuo left the coffee shop, they walked side by side into the first floor lobby of Jingyan Group. As they walked, Yang Ke said to her with a look of disapproval:

"Are you stupid? So many employees of Jingyan Group are lining up to buy coffee, but no one dares to buy it for Old Ye. Don't you think about why?"

"Have you all been scolded? I didn't think too much about it. I was just saying it, why are you all so confused?"

Having said that, Zhu Suosuo paused for a moment, glanced at Yang Ke, and then continued to complain:

"You said Ye Jinyan is really weird. It's just a matter of colleagues having coffee and having dinner, isn't it just you bring me and I bring you? Why is he making it so serious?"

Seeing her openly complaining about the top leader, Yang Ke quickly interrupted her and said, "Stop talking! Don't you even see where we are?"

As soon as Yang Ke finished speaking, and before Zhu Suosuo could say anything, an employee who was waiting for the elevator saw Yang Ke coming towards him and greeted him with a smile:

"Manager Yang, good morning!"

"Ouch, look at the big dark circles under your eyes!"

Hearing the familiar greeting, Yang Ke looked up at the other party and said in surprise:

"You should make sure to rest. You've been working overtime this week, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, the employee who took the initiative to greet him smiled tiredly and said:

"I've been working overtime for three days in a row, and last night I spent the whole night drawing blueprints, so I just got back from breakfast!"

"You're trying too hard!"

Yang Ke sighed, then turned to look at Zhu Suosuo and introduced:

"This is Wu Di, a ten-year veteran of our company and a benchmark for the design department. I'm going to give you fifteen days of annual leave to learn from you!"

Hearing this, Zhu Suosuo hurriedly bowed and greeted politely: "Hello, Zhu Suosuo!"

"Oh, I've heard of that before!"

As he spoke, Wu Di clasped his hands together, politely returned a salute to Zhu Suosuo, and said with a smile:

"I've heard a lot of people talking about Miss Zhu these days. They say Manager Yang has a new great recruit, and she's a stunning beauty. Seeing her today, I can see she's really as good as her reputation!"

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it, you are too polite!"

When Zhu Suosuo heard Wu Di praising her like that, she quickly responded modestly.

As they were talking, they arrived at the floor where Jingyan Group was located. Yang Ke smiled and walked out of the elevator with Wu Di arm in arm.

"I can't be too tired. My body can't handle it. I should take a vacation when I have time and go out for a couple of days!"

"I have to finish this project anyway. Then I'll take two days off and learn golf from you!"

"Don't learn this from me. It's not fun. I only learned it to accompany clients. If you have that much time, you might as well take your wife and kids on a trip, or go somewhere nearby for a couple of days!"

"That's true. I haven't been with my wife and children for over half a year. After I'm done with my work, I can take them back to my hometown to see my mother and enjoy the rural scenery!"

As he was speaking, two security guards came over. One of them was holding a storage box in his hand. He looked at Wu Di beside Yang Ke and asked:

"Are you Wu Di?"

"I'm Wu Di. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Wu Di answered with a look of surprise. After all, being blocked by the company security guards so early in the morning was a bit confusing.

After receiving a confirmation, the security guard holding the storage box handed it to Wu Di and said, "This is your personal belongings. Please keep it safe!"

"why?"

Wu Di did not take the things, but looked at the two security guards in front of him and asked the reason in confusion.

Another security guard responded: "You're on mandatory leave, so..."

Wu Di looked at Yang Ke and the others, as well as the colleagues watching the excitement nearby, and without waiting for the security guard to finish, he said with an embarrassed look:

"Forced vacation? No one informed me about this, and I only finished half of the drawing I drew yesterday!"

"You will receive an email later. Please collect your personal belongings and come with us!"

The company security guard smiled and explained to Wu Di in a businesslike tone.

"Then I'll be leaving first, Lao Yang. We'll get together again when there's a chance!"

Wu Di reluctantly took his personal belongings, said something to Yang Ke with a forced smile, and then left with the security guard.

"Okay, let's talk again when we have a chance!"

Yang Ke nodded, and after Wu Di and the company security left, he quickly walked over to Ai Boer who was watching the fun, and asked in a low voice:

"Aiboer, do you know what happened to Wu Di?"

Ai Boer glanced at Yang Ke and Zhu Suosuo behind him, curled his lips and said:

“I heard that a few days ago, when he was having dinner with a client, he drank too much and complained about the company.

Look, I worked overtime last night, and I got fired today!"

After hearing Ai Bo'er's explanation, Zhu Suosuo said with sympathy:

"But he's been working at Jingyan for ten years. He was fired for complaining about the company for a few times. Isn't that a bit..."

"Wolf culture, what's the point of talking about human nature?"

Glancing at the still naive workplace newbie Zhu Suosuo, Yang Ke shook his head and continued expressionlessly as he quickly walked towards the office:

"You have to learn. He doesn't care if you've worked for ten or twenty years. If you're not doing the company any good, you'll have to pack up and leave immediately!"

Hearing this, Zhu Suosuo chased after him and asked, "Manager Yang, who let him go?"

"Of course it's Old Ye. In Jingyan Group, even a talent of Wu Di's caliber needs his approval before they can start!"

"Mr. Ye?"

Zhu Suosuo frowned and asked again in confusion: "Isn't he buying coffee downstairs? How did he open it?"

"Haha, now you know how powerful I am! I fired an employee who has worked for me for over ten years while I was having a cup of coffee!"

"Is this too exaggerated?"

Yang Ke sighed a few times and continued to say to Zhu Suosuo as they walked away, "It's better for you to know this earlier. You should be careful at work in the future. Our boss is a devil, ruthless and cold-blooded!"

Looking at the indignant Yang Ke, and personally witnessing a veteran employee who had worked for the company for ten years being fired on the spot simply because of some private complaints about the company.

Zhu Suosuo completely understood what Yang Ke had said before. Ye Jinyan, the president of Jingyan, was cold on the outside and even colder on the inside, so she couldn't help but sigh at the terrible side of the company's wolf-like management.

It was this incident that made Zhu Suosuo feel uneasy for a long time. This was so different from the working life she expected and imagined.

So during the break, when she was alone in the tea room drinking coffee, she sent a message to Han Tao, telling him about what she saw and heard in the morning and wanting to hear his analysis.

After patiently listening to Zhu Suosuo's words, Han Tao pondered for a moment and replied, "Suosuo, don't think too much. What you need to do now is to study hard and absorb nutrients to strengthen yourself.

And in fact, you only saw the surface of this matter, not its essence. The fundamental reason why Wu Di was fired was definitely not as simple as complaining about the company!"

"Brother Han, what is his root cause?"
