In fact, I still agree with Lin Yi's statement, because I believe in one thing: the relationship between people needs to be maintained, or managed. And paying New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival is a very rare opportunity.
I admit that I have a feeling of laziness or fear of difficulties in my heart. Lin Yu told me that I could no longer pay New Year greetings to Governor Huang, so he played into my heart.
But I know in my heart that I really shouldn't do this. Anyway, Governor Huang looks at me like this and is kind to me. No matter what, I should take advantage of this Spring Festival to go there.
Just thank him.
Lin Yi looked at my hesitation, and immediately smiled and said to me: "Feng Xiao, this is what happens in official circles. Everyone is tied by a thread. Since you are now Governor Huang, that thread
If you are in love with someone, then you should tie this thread more firmly. How can you make this thread stronger? That is to maintain it through emotions. People are animals with emotions, so use emotions to maintain them.
The strongest relationship is the strongest relationship, and the Spring Festival is a traditional festival for us Chinese. Visiting your boss at such a time will be emotionally easier to be accepted by your boss. As for gifts, they are not particularly important.
Of course, it also depends on the person. If it is the kind of leader who is greedy for money, of course he must give heavy gifts. But Governor Huang is not that kind of person. He is not short of money, and he is not greedy, so
The main thing you have to do is to take the initiative to contact him and give him appropriate gifts."
I smiled bitterly and said, "The difficulty lies in the word 'suitable'."
He laughed "haha", "Do you know what is appropriate? Appropriateness is actually relative. As long as the other party likes what you send and is willing to accept it, it is called appropriate. Of course, you must do your homework in advance.
, For example, what is the identity of the person you are giving the gift to, what education level he has, what kind of personality he has, what he likes the most, etc. Only after you have a comprehensive understanding of these situations will you know what is appropriate."
I smiled bitterly in my heart: You have been talking for a long time, but you still make it difficult for me. It would be nice if I knew Governor Huang's situation, but where can I find out about it? But I said: "Yes. I
Try to understand as much as possible.”
He asked me: "What did you give him last year? Is he satisfied with it?"
I was startled again, thinking that I couldn’t tell him about this, because what I gave him last year was the painting I took from Wu Yaru, and Wu Yaru is now with Lin Yi... I said: "I gave him the painting last year."
It’s two bottles of 15-year-old Moutai.”
He was stunned, "Oh? This is a good thing. Although the price is expensive, it is nothing to a person like Governor Huang, but the most important thing is that it is difficult to find. This can be regarded as your attentiveness.
"
I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart: Fortunately, he didn't ask me where I got the wine, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to answer. But it's normal that he didn't ask me such a thing. After all,
He is Lin Yi. Under normal circumstances, he would not ask me for details in this regard.
I laughed "haha", "Yeah. At that time, I also thought that something like this was relatively suitable."
He looked at me and smiled, "So, what are you going to give him this year? Oh, you didn't plan to go to him to pay New Year greetings, so you didn't prepare anything, right?"
I nodded and said, "Yes."
He smiled and said: "Well, I have prepared a gift for you. Governor Huang promises that he will like it."
I suddenly became curious, "What is it?"
He laughed "haha" and said: "To be honest, I spent a lot of effort to find this gift. Although it is not valuable, it means a lot to him."
I became even more curious, "Then please tell me, what is it?"
He said: "It was a manuscript written by Governor Huang's father. Governor Huang's father was an economics professor. After the reform and opening up, he was the first to use his theory to do business, and he was very successful. Later he put his own
I wrote a book about my experiences. At that time, I didn’t type on a computer, but wrote entirely with a pen. I found a friend of the publishing house and finally found the manuscript of the book. How about this?
Is it suitable?"
"Of course it's appropriate! Governor Huang will definitely be very happy when he sees something like this. But Uncle Lin, did you prepare this for yourself?" I asked.
He shook his head and said: "Originally, I prepared it for myself at first, but later I felt that it was not appropriate. After all, it was not good for me to do this. It seemed like I was deliberately trying to make a profit. Besides, he doesn't want to see me at all now, so I think it's you
Take it and give it to him."
I asked in surprise: "Don't I think that if I gave it to him, I wouldn't be trying to make a ploy?"
He said: "He won't believe that you found this thing because he knows you are not that kind of person."
I didn’t understand what he meant, “Yes, then why did you ask me to take the things to him...” At this point, I suddenly understood, “What do you mean?
You mean, let me transfer it to him on your behalf, right?"
He smiled at me and said: "Feng Xiao, you are very smart. That's right, if you give him this thing, he will definitely ask you where you got it from, so just tell him the truth."
I immediately understood: his purpose was obvious, that is, he wanted to tell Governor Huang through me that Lin Yi really cared about his relationship with Governor Huang, or he wanted to remind Governor Huang through me that Lin Yi
It's a friend you can hang out with.
I suddenly became embarrassed, because in the final analysis, Lin Yi's idea still regarded me as a tool, a tool to deliver messages for him.
In fact, I have been very careful about what I say tonight, because I don't want Lin Yi to find any loopholes or flaws in my words, but now I realize that I still can't refuse anything he arranges for me. Now,
He has already reached this point step by step. Can I still refuse?
I had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay. I've taken some time to contact Governor Huang recently. But I can't guarantee that he will definitely meet me."
But he looked confident, "He will definitely meet you."
I was surprised again, "Why do you say that?"
He smiled and said to me: "Because Governor Huang thinks highly of you. Think about it, that time you asked Huang Shang to arrange entertainment projects, Governor Huang agreed to participate, you know? This is a leader, they
You will not casually participate in such activities arranged by your subordinates, unless he thinks you are completely trustworthy."
I disagreed in my heart: If it weren't for Lin Yu, he wouldn't have agreed. But I still felt that Governor Huang would not refuse me to pay him New Year greetings. Of course, I would definitely bring Lin Yu along. So.
, the key to the question is whether I am willing to do it. Moreover, I have to convince Lin Yu.
I said, "I'll give it a try. But I really can't guarantee that he will definitely meet me."
He then said: "Feng Xiao, let's talk about Nanyuan Restaurant now."
I was stunned for a moment, because I didn’t expect that his thinking would change so much: Just now we were talking about paying New Year greetings to Governor Huang, why did we talk about this matter all of a sudden? But I really want to
Knowing what this matter was about, I immediately asked him: "Uncle Lin, I also want to know, was Nanyuan Restaurant yours before?"
He nodded, "It's mine, but I later gave that place to Wu Yaru." (To be continued)
