Chapter 23 Hopeless
Chapter 23 Hopeless
After the project rewards were issued, He Jingnian brought money to ask Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng to meet.Before setting off, he deliberately brought a recording pen with him. If the couple were greedy again, he would resort to legal means with evidence.
Unexpectedly, he was fully prepared to fight a tough battle, Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng seemed to have a sudden change of sex, not only did not want his money, but tremblingly handed him a bank card, saying that the money he called over the years It's all in it, even the interest is included in it.
When He Jingnian heard this, his jaw almost dropped.This couple has plucked wild geese and left skins, wishing to use every penny they scraped to support their son who passed on the incense. How could they be kind enough to help him save money?It's a fantasy!
But no matter how hard he asked, Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng insisted that the money belonged to him, wishing to put on a posture of swearing.
Zhang Xingde still imitated the way of a loving father, saying: "You have been very filial all these years, you should also think about yourself in the future, don't give money to the family anymore."
"We have also reflected on it deeply, and criticized and educated your younger brother, telling him to work hard and learn from you." Chen Meng helped, and she, who has always been sharp-tongued, stumbled over these few words, her eyes trembling from side to side , Seeing as if he had encountered something terrible, he is still in shock.
He Jingnian went straight to the point, "Did someone come looking for you?"
"No!" The couple said in unison.
Not a man, but a devil.
That day, after they were driven out from Shengheng, as soon as they got home, they saw two rows of burly men in suits and leather shoes blocking the door.A man wearing glasses came over, claiming to be Yuan Cisheng's secretary, hoping to have an efficient and necessary negotiation with them.
Although the husband and wife were afraid of those men with dark glasses, on second thought, they could take this opportunity to hit each other hard!Yuan Cisheng is so rich, several million is nothing more than root hairs to him, if he can calm things down, how can there be any reason not to give them?
"Sorry, I'm afraid we can't meet your request." Secretary Jin said politely.
"Why?" Chen Meng didn't expect the other party to reject it straight away, and suddenly became impatient. "Speaking of which, your boss is still my half-son-in-law. Why don't you spend some money to honor your wife's natal family? It's only natural!"
"That's right, why don't you say that the richer you are, the more stingy you are?" Zhang Xingde slapped the table loudly, "Tell your boss, anyway, people like us don't have as much face as him, so if we can spare it, we'll put it on the news when the time comes." See, let the people of the whole country see how the big boss of Shengheng bullied us!"
Roaring excitedly, Zhang Xingde also tried to pull Secretary Jin's tie in order to achieve sufficient effect. The man in sunglasses standing aside had quick eyesight and quick hands, and immediately pushed him back with a "boom".
"What's the matter, you still want to threaten us? Let me tell you, it's a legal society now, and even if you have money, you can't do whatever you want!"
"Please calm down, both of you." Secretary Jin said, "Director Yuan has made another condition to you two."
The couple who were still barking their teeth and claws suddenly seemed to be pressed the pause button.
"Why didn't you say it earlier." Zhang Xingde was a little excited, thinking that since Yuan Cisheng didn't give money, he might give them other benefits, such as a car, a house, jewelry, and maybe even a new one for their precious son. A good job with easy wages and high wages is beautiful when you think about it.
Secretary Jin pushed up his glasses, "Director Yuan hopes that you can return all the alimony you have asked for from Mr. He Jingnian over the years after Mr. He Jingnian terminated the parent-child relationship with you, and the interest will be paid in the medium and long term. 4.90% interest rate calculation for business loans.”
Both Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng were stunned.
Did they hear correctly?Instead of giving them money, let them pay out?It's never played like this on TV. Aren't those rich people signing checks the same as playing?Why is the voice of the original speech more picky than theirs?
"Don't even think about it! Tell you, I, we will go and expose it now, find the media, and post on Weibo!"
Secretary Jin said calmly: "I wonder if the two of you have heard of Sheng Heng's purge campaign?"
"nonsense!"
At that time, Shengheng laid off more than 1000 people in the purge movement, and turned on the TV and kept changing channels, and you could see a complete news.
"During that incident, some people questioned Yuan Dong's actions. Yuan Yuan didn't like to hear different voices, so we immediately maintained media relations. You may wish to recall whether you have seen A little bit of negative public opinion about Shengheng."
Secretary Jin paused, gave them enough time to understand, and continued: "In addition to returning the money to Mr. He Jingnian, Director Yuan also hopes that the two of you will not appear in front of Mr. He Jingnian again. Make Mr. He Jingnian unhappy. If Mr. He Jingnian is unhappy, the original director will be unhappy. If the two of you continue to harass Mr. He Jingnian and extort money from him, we will take certain measures.”
Zhang Xingde pretended to be calm, "What, what?"
Secretary Jin smiled slightly, and slowly and clearly reported the company their son was currently working for.Their precious son was their weakness, and the nervous expressions were clearly visible on the faces of the two of them.
"Please don't make the mistake of thinking that we will fire him from the company where the son works. The original director doesn't like to put all his eggs in one basket. Jewelry is only a corner of his business. I can only assure you that the whole country, In the whole industry, no company would dare to hire the son. Similarly, this measure will take effect for the two of you."
When Secretary Jin got up, Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng's hands were shaking, so he poured hot tea for them politely and enthusiastically.
"Whether you want your son's future or not depends on the performance of the two of you."
"We were wrong... We were really wrong. We treated you harshly. I'm sorry, please forgive us!" Chen Menghe Jingnian murmured silently, thinking that he was still angry, and the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. , kept apologizing, almost giving him a ninety-degree bow.
Zhang Xingde also stammered and said: "You obviously left after returning all the support money to us, but we keep asking you for money, it's so wrong...we are too greedy. You are a good boy, we I am so sorry."
The couple got serious about talking, and when He Jingnian didn't make a sound, they didn't dare to stop apologizing. They always had the creepy feeling that Yuancisheng sent someone to watch them closely.
Almost left a psychological shadow!
He Jingnian didn't care to listen to their tearful repetition of meaningless nonsense, he just wanted to know what was going on.But after asking for a long time, the couple still dare not say anything.Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, He Jingnian didn't force them anymore.Zhang Xingde and Chen Meng let out a long sigh of relief, they ran away after rubbing oil on the soles of their feet, not daring to stay by his side for a second.
The honey milk on the table was still steaming, He Jingnian stirred it with a spoon, and took a small sip.
In fact, he didn't like drinking milk at all, and he felt like vomiting when he smelled milk.It's just that the original speech would force him to drink milk, and he gradually got used to it.
It's not just milk that's used to.
He Jingnian sat in the tea restaurant for a long time, and finally made the call.He was connected almost instantly, and he couldn't help but imagine that the other party had been waiting for his call all this time?When I thought about it, I laughed at myself. When did Yuan Cisheng wait for him, he always waited for him, from day to night, from this winter to the next winter.
"I know what you want to ask." Amidst the slight electric current, Yuan Ci's voice was so cold and hard, "Everything is a measure to protect the company's interests and reputation, and there is nothing to delve into."
He Jingnian clenched his phone tightly, "I see."
The other end asked again: "Do you have anything else to say to me?"
He Jingnian hung up the phone.
The milk in the cup had completely cooled down, and the unmelted honey had solidified at the bottom, making it sticky and cloudy.
At the end of the month, the jewelry-themed exhibition held by Shengheng in the flagship store of ROME finally opened successfully. He Jingnian was invited to participate in the opening ceremony and gave a speech as the designer of the main exhibits.Many media and colleagues gathered in the audience, countless cameras were facing him, and the flashes flickered continuously.
I must have been very happy with such a result when I first entered Shengheng, He Jingnian thought.When I received Shengheng's offer, I was so excited that I almost cried.Now that I have finally come to this step, it is also the countdown to parting.
How wonderful it would be if I had never met Yuan Cisheng, and I was just standing here as an ordinary employee, and I could be proud without restraint.
During the free exchange time, many collectors and media gathered around He Jingnian, listening to him introduce the design concept of the brooch.After his design drafts are turned into products by skilled craftsmen, the actual objects are simply astonishingly beautiful, lifelike, and just like the hands of the eternal and loving Virgin Mary.
More and more people came to visit. He Jingnian saw a familiar figure standing in the crowd, and Shen Tangfeng also came.I saw him staring straight ahead, without any expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking, his dark eyes were like two black holes.After a while, he turned and left.
After the exhibition, He Jingnian wanted to go to the bathroom, but he heard the heated conversation inside through the door.
"Could this be directed and acted by our company again?"
"It's very possible, isn't it the same as the wedding in June? It has been regarded as a classic case by the industry."
"How can it be compared with this time, is it much more ruthless this time? But the effect is really good, killing three birds with one stone."
"What do you mean? Where did you hear the gossip?"
"What, it's all well-founded, okay? Well, once this design competition is aired, it's tantamount to creating momentum for our company's cooperation with ROME, and it also promotes a wave of Shengheng's respect for originality and no tolerance for plagiarism. corporate image. The most important thing is to get rid of Zhou Yiming, an old gangster who is stuck in the board of supervisors.”
"Huh? Didn't Zhou Yiming's son kill himself?"
"Don't you think it's suspicious that a place like our company, which is extremely disciplined, would allow Zhou Yiming to open the back door to his useless son? Zhou Yiming is one of the few veterans who have not been affected by the purge movement. Logically, He is very cautious in his words and deeds, but he still did something beyond the rules. Do you dare to say that all this was not deliberately tolerated by someone? "
"I'll go, you mean the big boss wanted to get rid of Zhou Yiming a long time ago, but he just lacked a legitimate reason?"
"Shh, don't dare to talk nonsense!"
The two chatted about other miscellaneous things, and opened the door laughingly, and were dumbfounded when they saw He Jingnian standing outside. "He, Mr. He...? You...don't take it seriously, we're just hearing it, really, just talking nonsense."
He Jingnian looked at the two employees who were embarrassed, and asked, "Who did you listen to what happened just now?"
The two looked at each other, and stammered: "The boss of the planning department..."
He Jingnian looked down at the badges of the two men, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart. "You are just administrative assistants, how could you get in touch with the manager of the planning department?"
What's more, Shengheng's employees are tense and ready to call at any time when performing on-site activities. It is impossible for them to fish and chat in the bathroom like them. Could it be that the newcomers who have just joined the company don't understand the rules?
"We just heard a little conversation between him and Secretary Jin..." The two became more and more flustered, "We were wrong, we were wrong, we shouldn't say things that damage the company's image in public, I'm really sorry ..."
He Jingnian waved his hand, signaling them to leave quickly.He stood leaning on the wall for a while, and when his head was not so dizzy, he stopped the car and set off to Shengheng.
He wants to testify himself.
Wang Zhitao, the manager of the planning department, was really surprised when he saw He Jingnian. He didn't know why he came to find him in such a hurry.Unexpectedly, He Jingnian's next question made him even more surprised.
"Show me all the plans for this month."
"This... what do you want to see?"
"Is there anything that cannot be shown to the internal staff?" He Jingnian said, "If you can't show the complete document, it's okay to show me a summary, right?"
Wang Zhitao hurriedly asked someone to bring the monthly report. He Jingnian flipped through it and said, "It's missing."
"The monthly reports are all to be submitted to the superior department, and there is no possibility of mistakes."
"The previous design competition," He Jingnian looked at him, "didn't there be a plan?"
Wang Zhitao swallowed his saliva.
"If you don't give it to me, I'll go directly to Yuan Cisheng, and the result is the same."
Wang Zhitao hesitated for a long time, as if he was holding an atomic bomb that could explode at any time, he handed the document to He Jingnian.
He Jingnian flipped through the pages, from the background of the project, the perspective of communication, to the most specific online and offline implementation, page by page, carefully reading the past.I have to admit that this is really a perfect proposal, which is enough to satisfy the original speech.
In this plan, the competition between him and Zhou Xiaomu has become a treasure. For this treasure, a series of extension plans can be developed, including online live broadcasts, designer interviews, roundtable forums around maintaining original issues, and industry The white paper, and even the competition can be made into a fixed project in the future.
The paper slipped through his fingers, and He Jingnian's heart beat harder and harder, as if a hole had suddenly opened in an extremely cold place, falling straight into the deepest cold darkness.
Yuan Cisheng is really too good a businessman, so good that even his little bit of self-esteem has to be weighed and weighed on the balance to calculate the convertible commercial value and brand benefits.
He Jingnian took a deep breath, he was neither disappointed nor sad, all his emotions turned into biting fear, filling his heart like ice balls.He stood there as if unconscious.
Wang Zhitao said in a low voice: "Actually... In fact... the original intention of Director Yuan is not like this. I heard from Secretary Jin that he really wants to help you."
"Then, how did this thing come about?"
Wang Zhitao was speechless again, and after a long silence, he said: "After Zhou Xiaomu stole your waste manuscripts, he threw them all into the shredder. It was Yuan Yuan who made people spend a lot of effort to restore them. Then ask a handwriting expert in charge of criminal investigations to make an appraisal to prove that it is indeed your work, this is the ironclad evidence, leaving Zhou Yiming speechless."
"Of course, otherwise, how could he catch Zhou Yiming's fault and justifiably force him to take the blame and resign." He Jingnian put the document on the table lightly, "I'm sorry to trouble you, thank you."
Turning around, Yuan Cisheng was standing at the door, staring at him with a gloomy face.
