Chapter 140 You're Not Efficient Enough
The Yanjing Hotel is affiliated to the General Office of the State Council and is an important venue for holding state affairs activities and foreign affairs receptions.
Ordinary people are not received these days. Only foreign guests or foreign affairs personnel of the country can enter.
"Don't worry about whether you have the ability or not. I'll arrange for someone to take you in when the time comes."
Zheng Guo said again: "That won't work either. I don't have foreign exchange certificates."
Lin Weimin was furious and said, "I really want to beat you to death. How can you be so stingy just for a blind date? Will you die if I exchange some foreign exchange coupons?"
Zheng Guo looked at him with a scoundrel look on his face. Lin Weimin finally had no choice but to compromise, "Okay, okay, okay. I'll take you both to coffee."
Zheng Guo then revealed a satisfied smile, "That's right, I really helped you a lot!"
Lin Weimin was helpless. What was he working so hard for?
"Don't worry. If Shuzhi and I really get together, you will definitely be of no use to me. I will let my son recognize you as his godfather."
Lin Weimin waved his hands hastily, "Don't do that. I'm afraid if I give birth to a little Zheng Guo, my house will be emptied out."
After talking about the date, Zheng Guo said before leaving: "Tell him not to worry about Xiaowei. After the communication with Jinling is completed, I still have to find a unit in Yanjing that can accept Haiyan. It will take more than one or two days."
"Okay, I got it. I'll wait for your news."
After saying goodbye to Zheng Guo, Lin Weimin went straight to Yan University and found Mark Meng.
"Lin, why are you here?"
"I have something to ask you." Lin Weimin didn't bother to be polite with him and said, "Please help me go to Yanjing Hotel this weekend and bring two friends in."
Ma Kemeng asked, "What are you going to do at Yanjing Hotel?"
Lin Weimin did not hide anything and told Zheng Guo and Yao Shuzhi that they were going to have a blind date.
Mark Meng immediately became interested. This was a good opportunity for him to learn about Chinese culture. "No problem. Leave it to me."
Lin Weimin thought for a moment and said, "You should take Yin Geli with you that day. You two are obviously foreign guests. Go in as a pair to avoid causing trouble."
After saying that, he took out some money from his pocket and said, "Since you guys helped me pay the bill that day, I just gave you RMB directly. I'll take advantage of you and use some of your foreign exchange certificates."
Mark Meng had never seen a Chinese-style blind date before, so he was looking forward to it. He took the money and said, "Leave everything to me."
After work, Lin Weimin told Yao Shuzhi the location of the meeting.
She didn't say anything, but she couldn't hide her joy.
In this era, Yanjing Hotel is definitely a synonym for high-end and classy. Even if you have money, you can't get in.
Apart from anything else, the sincerity and ability shown by the person introduced by Lin Weimin made her feel very fond of him.
Two more working days passed.
Lin Weimin was busy giving review comments on the manuscript.
With a "bang", a stack of manuscripts fell on his desk. Lin Weimin looked up and saw Lu Yao looking at him with his nose up.
"What's going on? Are you feeling proud after revising the manuscript?"
Lu Yao's nostrils shrank slightly, "It's finished, take a look."
Lin Weimin put down the manuscript in his hand and started to read Lu Yao's manuscript.
After a long while, Lin Weimin looked away and saw Lu Yao's expectant gaze. "How is it?"
"It's OK!"
Lu Yao was a little disappointed, "Is that all?"
"How high of an evaluation do you want? Just enough to be published in our Contemporary Magazine."
Lin Weimin felt that Lu Yao was a little bloated and needed to be admitted to the ICU.
"I said your efficiency in editing manuscripts is not good!"
Lu Yao stared and said, "My efficiency is not good? Do you know how many words are in this manuscript? How many days did it take me?"
Lin Weimin shook the manuscript and said, "More than 100,000 words. It took you 21 whole days to write it!"
The tone was as if Lu Yao had used it for twenty-one years.
Lu Yao frowned and asked in a questioning tone, "I revised more than 100,000 words in 21 days, and you tell me that my efficiency is not good?"
Lin Weimin felt a little guilty when questioned by him, but as an editor, he must have this professional quality. He cannot be timid when faced with such a situation. He must make it clear to the CPU that the author is in trouble.
"Twenty-one days is still short? Did you know that a young man came to our editorial department a while ago and it only took him one day to revise the manuscript?"
"One day?" Lu Yao looked at Lin Weimin in disbelief.
Lin Weimin looked at his watch and said, "To be exact, it should be one afternoon."
"An afternoon?" Lu Yao's voice was out of tune.
Lin Weimin was being petty here and did not mention the length of Yu Hua's manuscript.
"Are you sure he can fix it in one afternoon?"
"How could it be false? If you don't believe me, ask our colleagues." Lin Weimin said, and asked Rong Shihui: "Teacher Rong, the last time Xiao Yu came to revise the manuscript, it only took him one afternoon, right?"
Rong Shihui said with a smile: "That's right! Young people nowadays are really fast!"
Lu Yao was a little distracted. He thought it was amazing that he had finished revising the manuscript in more than 20 days. He couldn't believe that someone could finish revising the manuscript in just one day. His smug mood immediately dropped.
Lin Weimin was very satisfied with this and consoled her: "Your efficiency is actually quite good. There are always people better than you, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Lu Yao nodded, "I understand. I will work harder in the future."
Very good, young man, you are teachable!
Lin Weimin felt that his hard work was not in vain.
"If you have time these days, take a good look around Yanjing, and wait until the manuscript is finalized before leaving." Lin Weimin advised.
After Lu Yao left the office, his colleagues gave Lin Weimin a thumbs up.
Liu Yin said: "Weimin's kung fu is becoming more and more proficient now."
Lin Weimin said sarcastically: "It's all because of you teachers who taught me well."
After some jokes, Liu Yin came close to him and whispered, "I heard that you introduced a girl to Xiao Yao?"
"How do you know?"
"I overheard it the other day. Who was that person being introduced?" Liu Yin asked gossipingly.
"A friend of mine."
Liu Yin asked: "What are the conditions?"
"Why do you care about these things?" Lin Weimin asked.
Liu Yin glared at Lin Weimin in anger, "What else can I say? I was originally planning to introduce our husband's classmate's brother to Xiao Yao, but I didn't expect you to get there first."
"What are you talking about? What do you mean I got the upper hand? It's obvious that Sister Yao is more satisfied with the person I introduced to her, okay?"
Liu Yin glanced at Yao Shuzhi and said, "Look at how Xiao Yao has been painting her eyebrows and phoenixes these past few days. It seems that the young man you introduced to her must be quite good."
In order to make her give up, Lin Weimin said, "The conditions are good. She is talented, her works have been published, and her father is also a high-ranking official."
"I heard that you are going to meet Xiao Yao at the Yanjing Hotel?" Liu Yin added.
"Um."
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
Liu Yin's expression was full of envy. "Young people nowadays are really willing to spend a lot of money just to have a relationship!"
Lin Weimin smiled and said, "So, Sister Liu, don't think about Sister Yao about the younger brother of your wife's classmate. I'll introduce him to you, and it won't be wrong."
Liu Yin rolled his eyes at Lin Weimin.
