Chen Jiaxian feels anxious about her job. She talked to Zhou Yixing about this matter, but Zhou Yixing comforted her in turn: "Don't worry, the Changlefang project is still stable."
Chen Jiaxian said: "Is it because Changlefang focuses on the cultural industry?"
Zhou Yixing nodded: "Of course, now that the company has no growth, these colleagues responsible for incremental business will inevitably be laid off. But what is Changlefang? It is stock, old renovation, urban renewal, and it can actually improve the living standards of ordinary people. , this kind of project has no bubbles at all, and naturally it will not suffer a big impact.”
Chen Jiaxian murmured: "Look down."
Zhou Yixing said: "Yes, what do those elites who 'look upward' rely on? It's the wind, the benefits of policies, and the east wind of the times. Everyone wants to be a pig that flies in the wind, but they just want to fly. They don't know It hurts when it falls."
"Moreover," Zhou Yixing said, "the cultural industry has been very lively recently, have you heard? There are internal conflicts among the four giants in the cultural industry. The main creative team of Fu Xing Company left and fled, and Fu Xing filed a non-competition agreement lawsuit against the main creative team. The essay pdf was flying all over the place, causing a stir."
Chen Jiaxian was a little confused: "Ah? What does it have to do with me?"
Zhou Yixing pushed her: "Why doesn't it matter? According to your bidding plan, the exodus team will cooperate with our property company to build an intangible cultural heritage street for you! Have you forgotten?"
Chen Jiaxian seemed to have thought of something, but couldn't figure it out.
Zhou Yixing said: "Didn't you come up with this case? Didn't you deliberately separate the core teams of the four companies through the method of 'two peaches kill three people'? Use profits and performance to nourish their ambitions and support them to fight against their old employers." ?”
But she came up with the idea of "two peaches kill three people" just to bargain.
Chen Jiaxian looked at Zhou Yixing blankly, and suddenly a bright idea came to her mind.
At this moment, she finally realized that Pan Qiaomu and Guan Xi had used her plan to create a bigger plan for the cultural industry.
If this is the reason, it is not surprising that Guan Xi is about to leave his job and Pan Qiaomu sends Han Fang away in advance.
Han Fang is a direct descendant of Pan Qiaomu. If he is gone, Han Fang's life will definitely be difficult.
But.
Pan Qiaomu took advantage of her.
But he always kept it secret from her.
…
Chen Jiaxian is sitting at Pan Qiaomu's home.
The cold air across the city, even if it comes, is extremely short-lived. She stood on the balcony and felt like smoking for some reason.
She took one out of the old bag Guan Xi gave her and held it between her lips.
Pan Qiaomu left the office long ago, but he was not home at the moment, and Chen Jiaxian did not ask about his whereabouts.
Chen Jiaxian held a cigarette in her mouth and looked for a lighter in the room.
She opened Pan Qiaomu's wardrobe and found a row of shirts and suits, neatly arranged according to color.
Pan Qiaomu is a very orderly person.
Be orderly and have a plan. Therefore, he naturally has his own strategy and rhythm for what he wants to do. Pan Qiaomu has his own life and will not be interfered with or compromised.
Chen Jiaxian reached out and searched for the lighter in his suit pockets, and touched something.
She raised an eyebrow and put her hand into her suit pocket.
——Then he took out a small blue box.
Chen Jiaxian was surprised and stared at it for a long time.
She is not blind, she is not stupid, she knows exactly what this little blue box is. She recognized the logo above. Of course she also knows how long the customization cycle for this brand takes.
She opens.
——What a big diamond.
She put the diamond on her finger and compared it.
The number of laps is just right.
Her hands were small, which made the diamond look extra large. Although diamonds are just stones, and the logical connection between diamonds and love is also full of lies, they are extremely bright under the lamp and look extremely beautiful.
At this moment, Chen Jiaxian was suddenly extremely sure.
It is true that he is interested in her, and it is true that he pays more attention to interests. But when black and white are mixed together, people are gray. Even if he has love, it is gray love.
And so does she.
It was impossible for her to give up everything she had worked hard to maintain and devote herself to him wholeheartedly. How could she not weigh the pros and cons for her own benefit?
If she does not have pure love herself, how can she ask others to have pure love?
Chen Jiaxian finally found the lighter from another pocket.
She calmly took off the diamond, put it in the box, and stuffed it back into her suit pocket. She walked back to the balcony and lit the cigarette.
In all the gray uncertainty, what is certain?
Human nature is complex, but desire is simple. He and she were attracted to each other, and her and his only desires were real.
In the smoke, she inevitably thought of Pan Qiaomu's question:
"Do you expect too much from me? Who in the world can do that?"
…
Pan Qiaomu has been working hard recently for the cultural products company that Guan Xi is planning to establish.
By completing the Changlefang project, Guan Xi became well-known in the industry. As the industry declines and enters an era of inventory involution, real estate companies are almost all turning their attention to old city renovation projects.
The industry is experiencing a downturn, and the popularity of commercial housing has waned. However, there are many companies that want to copy the successful experience of the Changlefang project. Guan Xi attended many dinner parties, either by invitation or on his own initiative, and socialized like crazy.
The secret of social networking is self-presentation, which means bragging, lying, and cultivating relationships. This method is used all over the world. In fact, the business society is just a group of grass-roots teams based on packaged elites bragging and lying to build relationships.
It's a pity that the three professional courses of bragging, lying, and building relationships are not taught in schools, and they all depend on family background.
With Cheng Wenhua's help, Guan Xi obtained three old renovation cooperation projects. If they are all developed, the value will be considerable.
Once the project is obtained, if you want to support sales that satisfy the market, you will need a large amount of start-up capital. The bigger the capital, the more resources can be leveraged, and Pan Qiaomu plays a pivotal role in it——
Borrow money.
Work is not enough for Pan Qiaomu to use all his personal relationships, but his career can.
Playing cards, eating, singing——
It's all borrowing money.
When Chen Jiaxian started a business, he borrowed money to maintain and set up cards; when Guan Xi and Pan Qiaomu started a business, they borrowed money from everywhere to raise funds.
In business, being able to borrow money is the key.
Pan Qiaomu was busy until early in the morning, but he didn't feel tired. Facing a new career and an uncertain field, every pore in his body was boiling with excitement.
The pleasure of opening up new territories is like smoking marijuana. It is a high-threshold stimulation and excitement that is far beyond comparison with other things.
He ended the last social gathering, opened the door, and saw a dim light in the corner of the living room.
Chen Jiaxian raised her eyes from the sofa.
Pan Qiaomu softened his face unconsciously. He walked over: "Still not sleeping yet?"
He took off his suit and threw it in the dry cleaning basket.
The smell of cigarettes, alcohol, and a hint of perfume lingered in the air.
Pan Qiaomu came out of the shower and saw Chen Jiaxian reading a book.
"The light is so dark. Do you want your eyes to read here?" He stretched out his hand, took out the book in Chen Jiaxian's hand, and clasped it aside.
Chen Jiaxian looked around: "I like your bookshelf very much. You have so many books." Her voice was a little sad, "You are really well educated."
Pan Qiaomu's eyes fell on the upside-down book cover on the side: "Love in a Fallen City".
"It's just reading." Pan Qiaomu laughed.
He stood up, took out all the other Zhang Ailing's books on the bookshelf, and pulled out "Dream of Red Mansions", stacked them neatly, and put them in a bag: "Reading over and over again, remembering other people's thoughts, what kind of skill is that? Having your own ideas and being able to implement them is your true skill. If you like it, take it home and watch it slowly."
Pan Qiaomu has a strong and clear self.
Chen Jiaxian stared at his back: "What have you been busy with recently?"
Pan Qiaomu paused and said casually: "It's nothing."
Chen Jiaxian smiled and did not ask any more questions. The topic slipped between the two of them easily.
After saying a few words, Pan Qiaomu took out his mobile phone again and looked at the date: "You haven't used your annual leave this year yet. Let's plan it for the second half of the year. Let's go on a trip? You choose the place - do you prefer the subtropics or Europe?"
Chen Jiaxian shook her head: "I don't dare to ask for leave. This year's layoffs are not peaceful. I'm afraid I will be laid off if I ask for leave."
Pan Qiaomu noticed that Chen Jiaxian had just washed her hair and it was hanging loosely on her shoulders. He came closer, sniffing the aroma of the shampoo on her head, and said absently: "If you don't want to do Zhuoxiu's job, you won't do it. I'll find you another job."
Chen Jiaxian said: "Oh? Do you have many vacant positions?"
Pan Qiaomu smiled and avoided her question: "What shampoo do you use?"
Chen Jiaxian asked again: "Do you really have time? You won't answer phone calls and answer emails endlessly while traveling, right?"
Pan Qiaomu played with the hair on her shoulders intently, and his tone was unquestionable: "Don't worry, I will have time in the second half of the year."
Chen Jiaxian asked directly: "Is it right to resign? Where are you going after leaving Zhuoxiu?"
Pan Qiaomu didn't answer. He kissed her lips, silencing her question.
