Chapter 33
Chapter 34:
The “blocking” in the strict sense will last for four weeks to see the after-effects. However, it may be due to multiple reasons that the implementation of home block measures is not particularly strict, and even the parks are open; it is just that those who go to work and school are driven back to their homes, and gatherings are not allowed, and it was even required to have between cohabitants. Maintain social distancing.
This is of course unrealistic. At the beginning of the “circuit breaker”, there was a lot of adjustment in the details of the blocking.
The foreign workers’ dormitory was quarantined on the 5th, and the number of cases soared, twice the number ten days ago. Although the propaganda of “not encouraging the wearing of masks” has just stopped, and no regulations on the requirements for wearing masks in public have been issued, from the photos on the Internet, people are much more active and are finally willing to protect themselves and others.
I have not been out since I went shopping that day. Today is the ninth day, the stock is almost eaten, and I must go out by the weekend at the latest.
The company’s home office program came in time. No, the two-week trial period has not passed yet. It has been announced that the first phase of “Circuit Breaker” for all staff working from home is over.
I relax a lot.
It’s not just me. One day when I was in a meeting with BCG people, Lin Yimin happened to have a service staff knock on the door: I saw with my own eyes a pair of khaki shorts under his neat shirt. I just put on a light makeup every day. Sometimes I’m too lazy. I just use my eyebrows, open the curtains, and the sun will be used as a touch-up.
Of course, the randomness in the clothes doesn’t mean anything, the strings in everyone’s hearts are tight.
The BCG framework was a bit slow to come out. Originally, it was said that it could be taken out at the conference on Monday, but it was Friday today, and it still didn’t happen. I even typed faster with Raymond and their group. What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?
Miss Pan De is probably busy with this. The new mailbox has been registered for a long time, but there is no sign of any movement.
Today I have to interview two newcomers, both recruited by society. If people want to enter our department, it’s rare for me to choose clothes carefully again, and I didn’t fool around anymore. Now that various companies have postponed their recruitment plans, our group should be considered the number one in Southeast Asia to buck the trend.
No one will believe that the building will fall.
There is someone @我 in the private account discussion group. I clicked on it and found that Xiao Ding was talking about company gossip with An Ning, and somehow it came to me.
An Ning: “You wrote 150 pages of slides last week??? @李姚”
There is nothing to brag about, and I typed: “There is a draft.”
Since not letting out, the information of this “Nanyang Fishing Technology Exchange” discussion group has been increasing faster and faster. I think they are really idle. I can only catch my breath after the annual meeting. He is the only one in our department in the group, so active, do you think the workload is too easy?
When I was looking for work for Xiaoding, they began to keep in line and reply, all “fuck” on the phone screen.
It’s too idle.
I copied the information from the Vietnamese third party to Xiao Ding, with the following sentence: “Make a report before next Monday.”
Today is Friday. Xiaoding didn’t dare to pretend to be dead, so he communicated with me on the job account and got busy.
An Ning is not in my jurisdiction, and it is the time when Chunfeng is proud—she has been very green with Kevin recently—naturally, she will not retreat bravely. Seeing that I had confirmed the news, she gave a lot of face, and the new news was full of exclamation marks.
One hundred and five is indeed a new high in my history, but it is not a feat from zero to one. There are drafts of various groups first. I will make a base and make a summary. As long as I spend time, there will always be results. This matter is not difficult to talk about. At most, it can be praised for efficiency.
I think those who have worked in a prestigious school for two more years and have touched the method can achieve this level. Just wanting to give a few words of relief, the group has formed a new formation.
Anning takes the head.
I squinted my eyes while looking at her profile picture, and said nothing. Kill me?
This girl seems to have really tasted the sweetness, and she has learned to wear a high hat in public. I have always regarded her as a younger sister, and although I have gradually realized that others have grown up recently, I am definitely not as alert to her as to others. She has always been very active in interacting with me. At first I thought she was passionate: thinking about it today, it didn’t feel right.
This is another picture.
Sanjay may become Kevin’s abandoned son. He is very wise, and he did not participate in the wrestling anymore, only focusing on his own job. I think it is still useful to call him earlier. Why not do it without an enemy?
But what does Kevin care about tranquility?
Most of the engineers in this group are engineers, and most of the people in the support department are the three of us who come from our two departments. What’s Anning Picture… Am I thinking too much?
Maybe I finally found a time when I was free, An Ning chatted with me a few more words in private. I didn’t mention a word about the work, but he asked for warmth, and he also carried the name of Qu Zhizhi. I was out of interest, so I replied to her hastily and turned around to work overtime.
The annual meeting finally came to an end. The group picked up some thorns without accident, and the big bosses dealt with it. I have done nothing, but because of the proper documentation, I was praised by the boss and boss. Thinking of tranquility, I later realized that the “One Hundred-Five” incident seemed to be a wind deliberately released by the boss.
This discovery made me feel uneasy. Thinking about it better, the boss may be creating momentum for me. I’m going to fight Miss Pan De, and I’m the main force to break the wrist with Kevin. The Peacock knows how to open the screen. It’s not too much for people to show off their muscles in business ability.
But if you think about it badly…
I didn’t dare to think about it.
There is a meeting at nine o’clock in the evening. In order to take care of my schedule, the “Tai Chi” team had to temporarily move the last meeting of this work week to this time. Except for Raymond, they are all kids. I feel a little bit sad. The process of the meeting passed very quickly, and it was over in less than half an hour.
Working from home has indeed brought great challenges to the Raymond team. The people at BCG are too good at digging holes in words. I didn’t expect them to make any progress during the annual meeting, but I didn’t expect to take advantage of it. There was almost nothing outside of Raymond. Save, everyone is more or less caught up with some information. This group is dedicated to practicing Tai Chi, and it may have been exposed.
I sighed. This loss is quite painful, but not unbearable.
In the bleak, the originally humble Xiao Chen attracted my attention. He usually seems a bit clumsy, and he is quite good at playing word games, and he also maintains personal relationships with several junior staff of BCG. It seems that they have some common hobbies. The sloppy problem showed signs of overcoming after that beating. I asked him to stay first and asked about the situation in detail.
Chen Yifeng turned out to be the person who made the least mistakes in the entire group. I have to say that this situation was not anticipated by me at the beginning of the project.
“Have you seen “Yes, Minister”? I asked.
“Seen.”
“Very good.” I took off my makeup while talking to him. “The first rule: Don’t follow Sir Humphrey’s speech.”
The voice over there seemed a little hesitant: “I’m sorry?”
“I know, I know, speaking like a senior civil servant is cool. It can show your style and good education background. More importantly, it can make people who have the same social language as you feel that you belong to the same A group.” The makeup is very light at home, and I can hardly use a few cotton pads. I am a little tired and speak very softly. “Never let others think that you are on the National University debate team.”
“I’m from the National University Debating Team…”
“That’s exactly what I said!” I put on the water-locking mask, “Use less skills in conversation, especially to extract information. Never use skills. I would rather know less and show my sincerity more. Talking skills are used for defense, not for offense.”
“Okay.” He didn’t agree very simply. I didn’t speak, for a long time, Xiao Chen asked again: “Can I know how you do it?”
“read.”
“read?”
“That’s right.” I thoughtfully pointed him, and said it more naturally, “It’s not about throwing out a few vague concepts and labeling others after the other party finishes the multiple-choice questions. That is not to understand the other person’s thinking, then Ask people to be wary of you.
“People usually speak for a purpose. Sometimes people realize this purpose, sometimes they don’t. Conversation is like an observation instrument. What you say, others respond to something based on your identity. Why does he say that? Read Understand this, grasp the intelligence, make a judgment, and then say the second sentence. This is how I do the work of “reading”.”
“Thank you for your help, Yao!” Xiao Chen said, “Well, but it sounds time-consuming. Will communication seem unnatural if you are silent for too long?”
“Practice produces perfection.” I said, “Why do I tell you this?”
“Because of you… I hope I can do this job well?”
“That’s right.” I looked into the mirror and sorted my mask, but my tone sounded a lot more energetic than before. “Then learn to be more confident in expression. It is embarrassing to say something wrong with confidence, but it is even more embarrassing than that. Yes, you are clearly saying the right thing, but others don’t believe you.”
“I will learn to do this, thank you.”
“You are welcome. I always welcome you to come to me for advice.” I glanced at the time, “I’m sorry to keep you busy until this time, Yifeng. You can get off work.”
“It’s okay. The BCG guys are working overtime more frequently recently, I can understand.”
I paused: “How serious is it?”
“Uh, analysts seem to have been over 80 hours. I heard a consultant say that Xu Xin worked 90 hours last week.” Xiao Chen was silent for a moment. “What does this mean? I thought I was consulting. It’s normal for people to work overtime, so I haven’t mentioned it.”
“It depends on how you look at it.” I didn’t hesitate a little. “Let’s do it tonight. Have a nice weekend.”
The BCG overtime is so serious that the optimization framework has not come out for a long time.
Something’s wrong.
