It's not yet the dog days of summer, but the weather in the capital at the end of June is no joke. So at this time of year, it's quite pleasant to be riding your bike along a tree-lined road in a light breeze, preferably with a girl with long hair down to her waist on the back seat.
There were also some girls in the back seat holding an ice cream in each hand, taking a bite for themselves and feeding the cyclist. They were having a good time, but the sight of them was at least 10,000 points of damage to single classmates, making them feel even more uncomfortable than Singles' Day. Even Feng Yiping felt that at this time of year, he should be in a good relationship.
Perhaps he was not the only one who felt this way. In front of the law school, he saw a bespectacled classmate holding a book and muttering to himself. At first, he thought, 'This guy is really hardworking.'
Then, a few words drifted by, 'Lovebirds playing in the water, they all fucking drown; flying wing-to-wing, they all fucking fall to their deaths.'
This guy, Feng Yiping, first thought it was funny, but then he felt a little scared. He looked back and decided that he would definitely stay away from him in the future. After all, the case of his senior Zhu Ling never came to a conclusion, not to mention the example of Ma Xuecheng.
He turned his head, but didn't look ahead, and then there was another shout, 'Feng Yiping, what are you looking at?'
Feng Yiping looked and became depressed. Why had he not been able to rest on his way home these past few days?
Xiao Cai and a few classmates were standing by the roadside, holding some drawings and looking at him with a meaningful expression.
'Nothing, I thought I'd dropped something, what are you doing?'
'You didn't drop something, did you drop your eyes?' Xiao Cai laughed, saying that there had been a lot of girls along the way, and they had thought that Feng Yiping had just been ogling that girl.
'I didn't drop my eyes, but I almost dropped my saliva,' Feng Yiping really wiped his mouth with his hand, not taking such a joke seriously.
On hearing this, the girl opposite burst out laughing. 'I have to call Jingping and tell her to keep an eye on you,'
'You keep an eye on Yonggao first. You're in a hurry to get back for dinner. I'll leave you alone,'
Then, sure enough, there was another sound, "Wait a minute,'
Feng Yiping helplessly braked, "Yes?'
'The office is being renovated. What about the drawings you said we needed to improve? Can you show them to us?'
'Auntie, aren't you worried about the exam? Why are you worrying about this now?'
'What's there to worry about with the exam? We've always been curious about this groundbreaking design you're talking about. After the exam, it'll be vacation time. Before then, can we have a sneak preview? It'll be good to have something to do during the summer vacation.'
This Cai is really motivated at work. If you nurture her properly, she'll definitely be unstoppable in the future.
'I still need to improve it a bit. I'll wait until next semester, when the office is also ready for renovation,'
Cai and a few of her classmates. The design company will of course accept them, but so far they have not signed a formal employment contract with them. In some respects, Feng Yiping certainly has to keep his cards close to his chest.
After all, the few groundbreaking designs he mentioned are actually groundbreaking in appearance, and appearance is the easiest to copy. Cai and her hometown are just the ones with the ability to copy, and they are among the best in the world. It is better to keep it a secret for now.
'That's really mean. But can we meet the other one?' Xiao Cai asked with a smile.
'What?'
'What else? The one who sang on the disc you gave me. Many of my classmates, all pretty female classmates, want to see his true face,'
Things in the entertainment industry always heat up quickly and fade just as quickly. Right now, the headlines are dominated by Master Zhang's search for the female lead for 'Happy Times'. These days, many young girls with dreams of stardom are gathering from all over the country and heading to the capital, as well as the cities where the film crew's casting team will be going.
In fact, the two things they are doing are somewhat similar. Master Zhang is also recruiting the female lead through a website this time, and apart from promoting the movie, it is also a chance to hype up the website.
The reason why Feng Yiping is still being remembered is because in the video he released, he didn't show his face. Just like the later Dao Lang, he has always been known only by his work, and strictly speaking, not his face.
So, as he had expected, it successfully aroused the curiosity of many people, and they still can't get it out of their minds.
'Oh, you mean this? I really don't know. You guys go ahead, I'm leaving,'
followed by a burst of laughter carried on the wind, 'He's just feeling guilty.'
For the past few days, the company has been ordering lunch from the same takeaway. As for the lunch break, forget about it for the next two days. It would be good if you can just lie on the table for a while.
The receptionist girl saw Feng Yiping come in and quickly wiped her mouth, 'Hello, Mr Feng!'
'As long as the lunch boxes are good,' Feng Yiping replied with a smile.
'Come on, I've saved you some,' upstairs, the male colleagues were standing in the corridor with their lunch boxes, chatting and eating noisily, while Jin Ling, with the women, had taken over the meeting room and, seeing him come in, pointed to the seat next to her.
Feng Yiping was also very polite. He neatly broke open the disposable chopsticks, scraped off the burrs on top, and opened it up. 'Not bad, there's meat and vegetables. Is there more? If there is, save me another portion,'
'I'll go get it,' Fang Yingzhi immediately stood up.
'You really have a good appetite,' Jin Ling looked a little picky at her portion, drinking orange juice more frequently than using chopsticks.
'No choice, I'm young and still growing,' Feng Yiping laughed and acted young.
Huang Jingping had originally said that she would cook the meal in the next two days and deliver it to them, but Feng Yiping thought better of it. It was only a matter of days, and there was no need to distance himself from everyone over such a trivial matter. Grandpa, mom and dad also agreed, so what's so bad about a lunchbox that costs a dozen yuan?
'Have you finished preparing everything?'
This promotional event has been the most time-consuming and resource-intensive event in Yujia's history, and its aim is to strengthen consumer awareness of the brand.
'Apart from some goods that are still on the way, everything else is ready and we're just waiting for the opening. It's just that there may be some best-selling goods that will run out of stock later, and there may also be some promotional items that have been stocked in large quantities and will still be left in stock,'
because it is a promotional event, the recommendations of the management system for daily inventory will not be applicable here, and everyone can only make an estimate based on past sales data and then arrange the inventory.
'It's normal, it's the first time. It's good to be out of stock. It's meant to create a sense of urgency and make them rush to buy. With this year's experience, we'll be more accurate when we organise it again next year. Also, has the new duty roster been put in place?'
With the combined effect of various promotional methods, the flow of people will definitely be concentrated during the promotional period. It will definitely be impossible to cope if only one person is on duty as before.
'It was already distributed yesterday, including all departments at headquarters, and only a limited number of people will be on duty. The rest will all go to the store to work shifts. In addition, trainees at the training bases on both sides have also been arranged. Some will go to the warehouse to move goods, while others will be in the store to sort goods, set prices, and pay attention to product safety. This will be just like an early internship,'
'That's good. I must emphasise that all the extended working hours this time will be counted as overtime. Overtime pay will be paid as soon as the promotion is over, even for trainees who have not officially started work.'
According to the plan, all frontline sales staff will have to work 12 hours a day that week.
'Yiping, will you participate then?' Fang Yingzhi asked with a smile.
'Of course. I'll work the night shift at the store opposite the school,'
Feng Yiping said, wanting to see for himself whether this well-prepared promotion would meet their expectations.
