Guan Zhilin's first contact with young people from the mainland.
She was born in Xiangjiang. Her father Guan Shan is an actor at Great Wall Film Company, and her mother Zhang Bingqian is also an artist at Zopai Film Company in Hong Kong.
In the past ten years or so, she has had contact with people from the mainland, but most of them are familiar to her, and there are very few young people.
She thought that Lin Xiaoguang was a native of Xiangjiang, and naturally thought that Ye Wendong and the other three were also. Unexpectedly, after learning about it, she discovered that it was not the case, and that they had other identities.
Born into a family of actors under the Hong Kong Zopai Film Company, she has no prejudice against the mainland, on the contrary, she has a good impression.
But now she couldn't reveal it easily. For the sake of her career development, she had to stay away from her. This was the general environment. As a small person in a big era, she was no exception, so she made up her mind and invited Lin Xiaoguang to have a meal.
Be more distant.
Ye Wendong didn't know this, he just felt that Guan Meiren had a hidden secret and it was hard to start with.
Therefore, this Western meal was quite interesting.
Ye Wendong and the other three have seen the world and have eaten a lot of Western food. Lin Xiaoguang, who came from later generations, is no stranger to it, not to mention Guan Zhilin, who is extremely skilled.
At the dinner table, perhaps to express her gratitude, Miss Guan frequently talked to Lin Xiaoguang.
Lin Xiaoguang was in a difficult position. Please pay attention to her. Ye Wendong was watching eagerly from the side. Please ignore her. It was a waste of Guan Guan's good intentions. Being caught between the two of them, he had to sigh: "It's too difficult for me."
This meal didn't feel very good to him, so he couldn't help but think of An Ran.
After waiting until the end of the meal, Guan Meili declined Lin Xiaoguang's offer to send her back, went out, and left alone with Shi Shiran in a taxi, riding away from home.
Seeing her walk away, Ye Wendong's heart also flew away.
When Bai Lu and Ye Wenqian were gone, Lin Xiaoguang found an opportunity, thought for a long time, and directly showed his cards to Ye Wendong, saying: "I have figured it out, pimping will not end well, and I refuse what you told me.
If you want to chase her, go for it. If I don't stop you, whether you can catch her or not depends on your own ability. It has nothing to do with me."
"You don't want 10% of the shares?" Ye Wendong looked ashen as water.
"Without Butcher Zhang, I don't eat pigs with hair on them. I don't believe that without your relationship, my business can't continue. If you push me too hard, I won't cooperate with you anymore." Lin Xiaoguang retorted mercilessly.
go back.
At this time, Ye Wendong was a bit unable to get off the stage.
He was about to say harsh words, but then he thought about it, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "Okay, I understand."
The two broke up unhappy.
In the next few days, the two seemed to be inseparable, but they had a grudge in their hearts. They showed it more or less on their faces and became cold. However, in front of Bai Lu and Ye Wenqian, they still barely maintained a plastic friendship.
Although Lin Xiaoguang was still entertaining as always, the number of visits was less, and he spent more time on work and writing papers.
On this day, when he returned to the company dormitory, he happened to meet Cai Wenjing.
Cai Wenjing was about to go out. When she saw him, her face lit up with joy. Then she became stern and slightly unhappy and said, "A lot of things have happened recently and we are all in a panic. You are quite carefree and go around with others."
Play, my life is really comfortable."
Lin Xiaoguang sighed: "Oh, I don't want to serve you for a long time. Why don't you come?"
After saying that, he asked casually: "What happened recently? I think it's quite normal. The convenience store is doing well, and the sales are better than ever. What else happened?"
"That's not it."
Cai Wenjing shook her head and explained: "A few days ago, the salary payment application submitted by the Finance Department was sent back to the company's Finance Department. A new salary payment plan came out, and everyone in the business department was in a panic."
"What's going on?" Lin Xiaoguang looked seriously.
"This is the first time we have paid wages. Many people have worked for more than 30 days. It was agreed before that the monthly salary of one thousand Hong Kong dollars is no longer possible. This one thousand Hong Kong dollars must be changed into three parts, one part
They are meal vouchers and daily necessities for the company canteen, part of which is in RMB and part of which is in Hong Kong dollars.”
Cai Wenjing explained: "These three parts are basically equivalent to one thousand Hong Kong dollars. Canteen meal vouchers and daily necessities are enough for one person to live for a month. The RMB is exchanged with Hong Kong dollars at an exchange rate of 1:4.
"
"The last Hong Kong dollar I got was only 100 yuan."
Lin Xiaoguang suddenly took a breath of cold air: "This is the result. I know that the country is short of foreign exchange, but the people in the Finance Department didn't tell me earlier. Now it makes us lose track of our words. What a bastard."
"Shh, please keep your voice down." Cai Wenjing carefully looked around and said, "Don't let the people in the company's finance department hear this. They issued this, and the general manager also agreed. There is nothing the director can do, so immediately
It's time to pay wages, and he's very worried. Don't make things worse."
"Okay..." Lin Xiaoguang was helpless.
He suddenly remembered what He Airu told him a few days ago. Someone in the company's finance department said that suppliers would be paid in kind. It seemed that this was not groundless.
He had a sense of urgency. If the payment for the goods was gone, he would have to rely on loans.
Two days later, when the cooked food commercial starring Miss Guan started to air on TVB and Qinhuai cooked food started large-scale promotions in Huarun Wanjia, all members of the Huarun business office were paid their salaries. Sure enough, as Cai Wenjing said, it was the canteen
Dinner coupons, daily necessities sold by Hua Yuan Wanjia, as well as one hundred and fifty yuan and one hundred Hong Kong dollars.
There is no one left.
A few days later, after careful consideration, Lin Xiaoguang took Manager Gong to see Luo Yaoguo.
When he saw him in the office, Luo Yaoguo was immediately stunned: "Didn't I give you a holiday? Why are you here?" Then, when he saw Gong Fan, he was even more surprised: "Why is Manager Gong here too?"
Gong Fan smiled and said nothing, pointing at Lin Xiaoguang.
In an instant, Luo Yaoguo understood that Lin Xiaoguang was up to something again.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Director, I heard that the company's finance department intends to replace the supplier's payment with raw materials and pay for the goods in kind. Is this a thing?" Lin Xiaoguang got straight to the point.
Luo Yaoguo looked calm and did not deny it: "This is still under discussion."
"Director, most of our suppliers in Huarunjia are mainland companies, and we can do this for them. However, some suppliers are local companies in Xiangjiang, such as Qinhuai Food and Beverage. Their company's products are convenient
They account for more than one-third of the store's daily sales, and we cannot deal with them hastily." Lin Xiaoguang spoke sincerely.
He has no control over other suppliers, and he must not just sit idly by and ignore his own Qinhuai food and beverages.
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"I don't deny that the boss of Qinhuai Food and Beverage and I have known each other for a long time and have a relatively good relationship. But this time I am not lobbying for him. I am looking out for the interests of our business office." Lin Xiaoguang talked eloquently.
"I can convince the boss of Qinhuai Food and Beverage to offset the payment for the raw materials they need at a price lower than the market price in Hong Kong. The remaining payment must be paid in Hong Kong dollars and received in time. With Qinhuai Food and Beverage being so cooperative, the company cannot afford to be left behind.
To win their hearts, we must go out and find a bank to get a loan for Qinhuai Food and Beverage."
After Luo Yaoguo heard this, he immediately laughed: "You said you were not a lobbyist, but I think you are."
After laughing, he looked at Gong Fan and asked with a smile: "Manager Gong, what do you think of Xiaoguang's idea? Is it feasible? Can your Bank of China provide a loan?"
Gong Fan was immediately under great pressure and smiled bitterly: "The landlords don't have any surplus food, and our Bank of China doesn't have any extra Hong Kong dollars."
