Chapter 131 Just do it casually (please subscribe)
The resentment of many single men upstairs made Lin Lu couldn't help but sneeze.
He rubbed the tip of his nose, looked at the company in front of him, pushed open the transparent glass door and walked in.
The office located in a Grade A commercial building naturally has a very high-end decoration. The first thing you see is a spacious and bright front desk. The company name 'Lingxi Advertising Creative Co., Ltd.' is on the wall. There is a coffee table and sofa for guests on the right, and a coffee table and sofa on the left.
The windows display the company's qualifications, certificates, medals, as well as some classic business cases and works.
Looking further inside, there are neat rows of work stations, divided according to different departments. The company is not very big, but it is definitely not small either. There are about 150 employees and it covers an area of about 500 square meters.
, at nine o'clock, everyone was already here, people having meetings, people working on manuscripts.
After all, this is where he works. This is the first time Lin Lu has come to his father's company. None of the employees there know him. Dad must not have come so early. After all, the company's business has been on track and he doesn't look like a young man.
I was very ambitious back then, and recently I became obsessed with fishing. I would go to lakes, rivers, and fish ponds every day. If I was lucky enough to catch a few fish, I would bring them back to the company as benefits to employees.
As Lin Lu walked into the company, the sister at the front desk also noticed him. Probably because Lin Lu was handsome, the sister at the front desk's smile was less professional and more sincere than before.
"Hello, this is Lingxi Advertising. Who are you..."
"Hello, I came here today to join the company."
The young lady at the front desk was surprised when she heard that he was here to join the company. After all, if such a handsome young man had come for an interview before, she would definitely have an impression. So, did you hear that right? He was not here for an interview, but directly hired?
And he looks so young! He must be in his early twenties at most. As the receptionist, there are many people watching. Even though Lin Lu is wearing ordinary clothes, the receptionist sister can still see the student spirit in him.
However, compared to ordinary college students who have just entered society, the handsome young man in front of him seems very calm. This kind of self-confidence is cultivated from the bottom of his heart. Either his academic performance has always been top-notch, or he has some very impressive talents.
"Well, which colleague interviewed you before? I'll inform you."
"Manager Xu from the Human Resources Department."
"Okay, just wait a moment."
If there is no interview, my father can just ask him to come and see Manager Xu. But after all, it is better to keep a low profile. I can't go into the company and tell people that the boss is my father.
As the young lady at the front desk came inside to announce, a woman in her thirties soon followed her out.
Manager Xu was different from the young lady at the front desk. When he saw Lin Lu here, his expression immediately put on a friendly smile, as if the two of them had known each other for a long time.
"The path is coming."
"Mr. Xu, thank you."
"Hey, there's no need to be polite to Sister Xu. I'll take you to the conference room to sit for a while and drink a glass of water first."
The young lady at the front desk was still surprised. It didn't matter that she hadn't seen this handsome boy come for an interview. When did Sister Xu, who had always been so stern-faced, become so enthusiastic about a young man?
Lin Lu knew it well. He must have said hello to Manager Xu. Society is like this. Human relationships are like this. In the drama Luan Biao I watched before, the ending of An Xin and Lu Han explained everything.
.
If you have resources, you are a fool. Although Lin Lu doesn't want to rely entirely on his father, his father's resources cannot be wasted. This can greatly reduce the difficulty and time of his own struggle.
Of course, Lin Lu himself is still very humble, and to learn you must have a learning attitude.
Manager Xu took him on a brief tour of the company and found a small conference room for him to sit in for a while.
"Mr. Lin also told me, Xiaolu, you can study in the company with peace of mind. If you don't understand anything, just come and ask me at any time. Here are some cases that our company has done before. You can also take a look. I will tell Xiao Chen
For a moment, she will take care of you during this period."
"Okay, please, Sister Xu."
"You're welcome. Let's drink a glass of water first."
Manager Xu also had a very good impression of Lin Lu. Although he was the boss's son, he was very approachable, didn't put on any airs, and kept his attitude very low.
As for what kind of work Lin Lu can take on, this is not something that Manager Xu needs to worry about. She also doesn’t expect Lin Lu to do anything for the company. As long as he doesn’t cause trouble like now, she used to work in other companies.
I've also met some time when the boss's son was bored and came to the company to experience life or something. He usually couldn't stay for a few days before he felt bored and ran away.
After leaving the conference room, Manager Xu went to find Xiao Chen from the design department.
The design department is subdivided into several groups, including poster design group, logo design group, exhibition design group, packaging design group, illustration design group, etc. The designers in each group are divided into three different levels, corresponding to different
With the design fee, Xiao Chen is the first-level designer of the packaging design team.
"What? I don't have time to bring in new people! I still have a lot of orders waiting to be done! Sister Xu, can you find someone else?"
"It's okay. You can help me when you have free time. You are the most skilled in the group. You can just give me guidance. The company will give you a newbie subsidy."
"...Which art academy graduated from it? Can you help me with the work?"
"Graduating from high school...Hey, don't look like that. Xiaolu is also studying art. Why don't you come here to study during the summer vacation?"
"My God, what can an art student who graduates from high school do? Sister Xu, our company is still looking for summer jobs?"
"Mr. Lin's son."
"..."
"Don't worry, the young man is a nice guy. Just help me with the guidance and teach him more. Mr. Lin also thinks highly of you, so he asked you to take care of him."
"Then let me make it clear first, if he doesn't learn anything, he has nothing to do with me."
"If he wants to learn, he will naturally ask you. You don't have to worry about anything else."
Xiao Chen had no choice but to agree, not praying that he could help, as long as he didn't cause any trouble for her.
Following Manager Xu, we came to the small conference room and saw Lin Lu sitting quietly on a chair looking through cases. The little girl also blinked, and her tired eyes suddenly brightened.
Damn! You told me he was a handsome guy! You’ve been pulling this off for a long time!
"Xiaolu, during this period you will study with Xiao Chen. She will arrange work for you. If you don't understand anything, just ask her. I have arranged the workstation for you. You can come over in a while."
Lin Lu also stood up when he heard the sound and came over to say hello to Xiao Chen.
"Hello, Sister Chen. I'm going to trouble you a lot later."
"No trouble! No trouble!"
Xiao Chen smiled warmly, stretched out his hand and shook Lin Lu's hand.
Of course, looking at her age, she is ten years older than him, so if you don't think so, let it go. After all, you have to take care of someone, and it is always more eye-catching to take a handsome boy with you.
Lin Lu's onboarding process was finally completed, and he followed Xiao Chen to the packaging design team. This was also the first time in his life that he experienced work life so closely.
The surrounding colleagues all had their own workstations and computers, and were currently busy with their work. Lin Lu's arrival aroused everyone's curiosity.
Xiao Chen was very busy, but he didn't leave Lin Lu alone. Considering that he was only a high school graduate, he didn't know how to teach for a while.
"Um, Xiaolu, did you bring your computer?"
"Bring it."
"Can you use software such as PS, AI, CDR, and C4D?"
"Will do."
"If you don't know it...ah? You know it? Does your school teach this?"
"It's not taught in school, I just learn it on my own. Well, I know how to use it, but I use it less, so I may not be very skilled." Lin Lu said modestly.
"Oh. Can you use software like Artios CAD, Auto CAD, and Artios CAD?"
“Are they all structural software?”
"Hmm, the biggest difference between packaging design and graphic design is the structure, so picture creation and creative expression alone are not enough, otherwise the finished work will either have a box that cannot be closed or a lid that cannot be opened."
"I am familiar with these softwares, but I am not very good at using them for the time being."
Xiao Chen thought about it. If Lin Lu knew everything, he would be able to place orders by himself.
"Well, let me arrange some work for you. Our team is engaged in packaging design. Generally, it is divided into four stages. I will bring them some small orders, and you will make the first order based on the needs provided by the customers.
The content design of the stage includes text, patterns, colors, etc. You can just figure out the expression method yourself. They are all small orders. If you pass them, you will also get a commission. Our company has the most small orders, so you can just do it.
Try it and learn as you go.”
"Okay, Sister Chen, you are doing big orders now, right?"
"Well, after you get familiar with it, I can also ask you to help with big orders."
Xiao Chen imitated his father and drew a cake for him.
After all, Lin Lu is just an art student who graduated from high school. Xiao Chen doesn't expect him to help with any work, so he can just give him some small orders and let him do it by himself. If he can pass, it will be the best, and if he fails, it will not be worse than his share.
Lin Lu didn't want to be too ambitious, so he readily agreed: "That's ok, I'm here to study. I have to practice more. If Sister Chen has any instructions, just tell me."
Apart from anything else, Xiao Chen likes Mr. Lin's son's attitude very much.
I dragged him into the WeChat group, picked out a few small orders for him, and let him figure it out on his own.
Occasionally Lin Lu would ask her some questions, and Xiao Chen would answer them for him. Most of them were process questions. Once she had told them once, Lin Lu would not ask them a second time.
After a while, Lin Lu began to design the content based on the customer needs on the order, so he basically stopped disturbing her. Xiao Chen was also happy to be free and began to concentrate on his own order, occasionally turning around to see how he was doing.
Xiao Chen: "..."
Seeing that she was looking at her silently, Lin Lu also stopped and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"No, that's good. You...can just hand-paint it?"
"Yes, isn't it possible?"
"Yes, yes, but small orders generally don't use hand-drawn illustrations. Those who specialize in hand-drawn illustrations are CUHK. Your painting skills are pretty good."
It’s okay to kill a chicken with a knives, but I didn’t expect that Lin Lu really had a knives!
Xiao Chen was also surprised. If she hadn't known that he was a high school student, she would have really thought that Lin Lu had experience. Is this the so-called design talent?
Xiao Chen knows this list. In the past few days, he has often heard the third-level designers in the team complain about the customer, saying that the customer is reluctant to spend money and has too many demands. He is considered a hot potato.
The customer sells fruit and agricultural products, and the demand is for packaging design of fresh agricultural products such as blueberries, strawberries, cherries, tomatoes, grapes, cherries, etc. Several previous plans have been rejected.
Now I was looking at the design drawings of Lin Lu Nong. I hand-drawn a minimalist illustration image of a mouth full of teeth while eating fruit. It matched the logo design of the client's company in English free font to give people a very cute and delicious image of agricultural products. The colors
The combination is also very bold. Just looking at the packaging, you can feel that these agricultural products are fresh enough.
There is obviously no complicated design, but the combination of such simple patterns, fonts and colors gives people a bright feeling.
"Xiaolu, have you studied design before?" Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask.
"I haven't studied it in a systematic way, so I just fiddle around with it. Is it okay for me to do this?"
"Yes! Very yes! How did you come up with this design?"
The customer's needs did not stump Lin Lu, but her question did.
"I don't know how to explain this, because I saw that the demand is for agricultural products and fruits, and I felt that the design needed to show quality, freshness, and deliciousness, so I just designed it based on my feeling."
"..."
With experience and study, Xiao Chen worked hard for so many years. For the first time, she was hit hard by the so-called talent. The various design knowledge and skills she needed to learn turned out to be a natural gift for this young man.
It's the same. He couldn't explain why, but he just drew it because he felt it looked better this way?!
It really hurts to think about it...
You don't need to think about it to know that Lin Lu's content design for this small order is 100% acceptable. With the money of the small order, he got the design effect of the middle and upper order, and the customer was still very happy.
"Let's do this, Xiaolu, after you finish this list, I will give you some medium-sized lists."
"Ah? How about I finish all these small orders first?"
"It's okay. Don't worry about the rest of the small orders. Anyway, you have to provide original hand-painted ones. Don't let the customer take advantage of it. Otherwise, it will be difficult to quote in the future and it will be difficult for other colleagues to do their work. The company is our own, so don't get involved.
.”
With the mentality of coming to learn, Lin Lu began to take on medium-level packaging design orders two hours after going to work.
Lin Lu didn't know if this speed was fast. After all, his goal was not to join the packaging design group. Once he had learned almost what this group could learn, he planned to transfer to the poster design group, logo design group, and exhibition design.
Go to the illustration design group.
Top design masters are all miscellaneous. Lin Lu has an innate talent for beauty, and his goal is also very clear. He came to work this time not to make a lot of money, but to get in touch with the market in a more diversified way, rather than just staying home.
Painting at home helps him gain a deeper understanding of the areas of knowledge he is involved in.
Apart from anything else, even when school started in September, he already had a clearer understanding of the market than his peers. After all, art is not about self-pleasure, only art that can be recognized by the market.
star: "How's it going? Did you go to work smoothly?"
Lu: "I'm so busy! I've realized how hard it is for my sister to make money to support the family!"
star: "It's your first day at work. What's there to do?"
Lu: "We have already started working."
star: "Who will take you?"
Lu: "A big sister."
star: "Oh. How was your study?"
Lu: "I want to drain the master like Sister Xingruo!"
star: "No!!"
The sister upstairs was so frightened that she sprayed water on the screen and suddenly became restless.
