Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Team Building Tradition
All the employees on the 22nd floor now know that the two secretaries and the personal assistant of the CEO are all related households (bushi
But there are differences between people with connections and people with connections.
Judging from the two secretaries' fancy dresses every day and their generosity in treating the entire department colleagues to coffee at any time, the general assistant's relatives who even put packaged leftovers in the public refrigerator are the ones that everyone fears the most.
Because he even summoned Mr. Si to help carry the milk tea!
That day, Secretary Wen treated his colleagues to drinks. Si Yizhi helped bring the milk tea to the general manager's office and then returned to his own office.
Shao Jiayan originally wanted to help Wen Kefan distribute coffee, but as soon as President Si left, he received a message from him.
[Forgot what I told you yesterday? We are sympathetic now, can you please stop making weird noises? I don't need you to do any specific work, just stay in the office honestly and don't affect my work status. Okay? ]
In fact, the reason why Mr. Si helped to carry the milk tea was mainly because Wen Kefan ordered too much and he couldn't carry it all by himself. Shao Jiayan volunteered to go downstairs to get it and bought chrysanthemum tea for Mr. Si. But who knew that the drink was too heavy and the plastic bag was tight on his hand~
My hand hurts and I can't type anymore, so I can't stand it anymore and come out to find him. I also help carry the milk tea~
Shao Jiayan was embarrassed and quickly replied "OK" to Mr. Si.
However, when he was replying, he accidentally touched the system emoticons that came with WeChat, and then Si Yizhi received an OK emoticon package with a cute puppy winking.
This made Si Yizhi, who was originally a little angry because his work rhythm was disrupted, calm down all of a sudden.
He comforted himself: Forget it, he is just a young guy who has just entered the society, there is no need to bother with him.
The drinks in the general manager's office were distributed by Wen Kefan, while Shao Jiayan carried the bags and went to find his Calabash Brothers.
It was a shame to say that he had been transferred to another post for a few days but still had not become familiar with his six brothers. Today was a good opportunity for him to go to his brothers' offices to deliver coffee and then match their faces with their names.
What makes the other general assistants different from Shao Jiayan is that each of them has an independent office.
Although the area is not large, the conditions are much better than those of Shao Jiayan who "lives" in front of the general manager's office.
After greeting all the brothers, Shao Jiayan finally took the milk tea he had been craving for and went to Sister Ai Si’s office to taste the new internet celebrity product with her.
Wen Kefan had just finished sending out the tickets, so he ran back to the secretary's office with no hope in life, wailing, "Woo woo ~ When I ordered, I was thinking about the number of people and forgot to count myself!"
"Ah, this..." Shao Jiayan looked at this big wronged person who contributed money and effort with pity, and said hesitantly, "Then why don't you drink this?"
Ai Si rolled her eyes at them both, "Can we give one cup to the Starbucks restaurant downstairs?"
So Wen Kefan had to place another order for himself. While waiting for delivery, the three of them on the 22nd floor chatted for a while.
Shao Jiayan actually wanted to ease the relationship between the two secretaries to prevent Sister Ai Si from embarking on the tragic path of becoming a vicious female supporting role.
So Shao Jiayan began to rack his brains to find something to talk about. Fortunately, Ai Si and Wen Kefan were both extroverts who talked a lot in their daily lives. Once they started talking, the conversation became a bit messy.
However, there is such a legend in the working people's circle.
No matter where you come from or what your educational background is, as long as you work in the same company, you will gradually become the same breed of cattle and horses. If you are still working under the same leader, you will have a lot of common topics.
This statement is very applicable even when applied to the protagonist and the vicious female supporting role.
Shao Jiayan had just started the conversation by cautiously asking, "Does Mr. Si have a bad relationship with his elders?" After that, his lively and cheerful colleague began to speak his mind without reservation.
In less than half an hour, the relevant knowledge about Si Yizhi entered Shao Jiayan's mind in a very direct way.
[What Mr. Si said is true. He was only three years old when his parents divorced.]
[It seems that all the descriptions in novels about villains being born bad are false! Mr. Si is really pitiful. It seems that I have to treat these people more objectively in the future. ]
Si Yizhi, who was eavesdropping in the office next door, was so moved that his assistant finally got it!
In a good mood, he finished drinking the chrysanthemum tea brewed by Shao Jiayan, then picked up the coffee brought by Secretary Wen on the table and took a sip with satisfaction.
Shao Jiayan, who was in the chief secretary's office next door, was chatting with his colleagues while drinking milk tea.
Under his deliberate guidance, the two guys who were destined to confront each other in the future were communicating well, without any sarcasm or confrontation. Shao Jiayan was pleased to see the two people communicating in a friendly manner, and then he began to taste the Internet celebrity milk tea that he had been looking forward to for a long time.
Smooth ingredients, soft and sticky texture and sweet taste... I wonder how sweet it will taste after taking a bite~
"Cough cough cough!!!" Shao Jiayan's earth-shaking cough interrupted the friendly atmosphere in the office.
Two secretaries came over immediately, one helped him with his back and the other poured him some water.
The CEO next door who was paying two secretaries almost cried out "yue". But he didn't get as good treatment as the assistants, so he could only wipe it with a tissue.
Si Yizhi subconsciously raised his hand and looked at the takeaway coffee cup in his hand, then he realized that the reason why the taste was wrong was probably not because of the coffee.
Soon, the phone in Ai Si's office rang.
President Si seemed to know the whereabouts of the young assistant very well. "Ask Shao Jiayan to come to my office. Ask him to bring the milk tea with him!"
So, under the gaze of the two secretaries, Shao Jiayan almost left the chief secretary's office and walked towards the president's office.
"Mr. Si, are you looking for me?" Assistant Niu Ma lowered his head, holding the cup of sinful milk tea like a primary school student who had made a mistake, and asked carefully.
Looking at the other party's behavior, Si Yizhi didn't even have the mood to cause trouble for him.
He waved his hand feebly, "Are you a fish? What did I tell you half an hour ago?"
Some things become boring if you talk too much. Shao Jiayan felt really sorry. He didn't expect that he would disrupt Mr. Si's work rhythm just by drinking a cup of milk tea.
Seeing this, he could only apologize honestly and try to be treated leniently.
Si Yizhi sighed and motioned for him to sit down first.
The two discussed the things they felt in common again.
Si Yizhi said that he could understand his living habits and tastes, and had no intention of asking him to change for him.
"You know I'm very busy at work. I hope you can control your diet when I'm in the company, okay?"
Looking at the boss who was so gentle and easy to talk to, with bubbles coming out of the corners of his mouth, Shao Jiayan lowered his head in shame.
"Okay, Mr. Si, I'm sorry, I was careless today~"
[Woo woo, although Mr. Si always looks like a scoundrel, he is really gentle and considerate to his subordinates. I can't let him down! He doesn't like sweet things and can't eat spicy food. I remember this! In the future, I must resolutely maintain Mr. Si's comfortable working environment! ]
Si Yizhi nodded in satisfaction, then stood up with the coffee, "I need coffee to wake myself up when I work..."
He stuffed his Starbucks drink into Shao Jiayan's hand, then took the cup of milk tea from him, "Let's switch."
Later, Shao Jiayan sneaked out of the president's office with a cup of coffee and quickly returned to his workstation.
He thought he had done it all secretly, but there were so many eyes in the general manager's office. Shao Jiayan, the life assistant who was suddenly transferred to another position, was already eye-catching, and many people were paying close attention to him privately.
Shao Jiayan drank coffee guzzlingly, and after finishing a few gulps, he threw the cup into the trash can.
Later, Ai Si knocked him on DingTalk, and he hurriedly took the documents and left. Little did he know that after he left, some people even went to the trash can to check...
Wen Kefan hadn't left yet when Shao Jiayan went to find Ai Si.
Young Master Wen crossed his arms over his chest, looked him up and down, and sneered, "Are you okay? This is the first time I've seen someone choke like that while drinking milk tea."
Shao Jiayan laughed awkwardly, "Surprising, unexpected~"
Then he turned around and asked, "Sister Ai, this is the team building application form you wanted."
It's the end of the year, and according to the Ark game's convention, each department will hold team-building activities at the end of each year.
When Shao Jiayan was a programmer, his team leader would send out notices around this time every year. Since there are so many people in the company, each department organizes itself as a team, usually going out for a meal together, or taking a day trip to a nearby scenic spot. If you don't want to go, you can choose not to participate. The company will give those who don't participate a 400 yuan subsidy.
In the past, Shao Jiayan never participated in team building activities. Firstly, he was short of money. Secondly, he worked too much overtime. On the rare team building day, he would rather sleep in and go back to the company to work on code.
But after the transfer, according to the organizational structure, Shao Jiayan should have participated in team building with Mr. Si and his team. Although Shao Jiayan needed the subsidy, he was also curious about what projects Mr. Si and his team usually participated in.
Wen Kefan glanced at the team building application form and asked casually, "What did you do for team building in previous years?"
"Mr. Si goes to Mincheng with the startup team for team building every year." Seeing that they were both curious, Ai Si shrugged and said, "But I may not be able to bring you two with me this year."
"Why?" Wen Kefan asked dissatisfiedly.
Although Ark Games is now very successful, when it was just a game studio in its early years, it had a traditional team-building activity that has been passed down to this day for startup teams.
The name of this activity is: Real Scumbag.
Ai Si told them that when the company was still a studio, there were only five people in total. She and Mr. Si were even later.
After Mr. Si returned to China and joined the studio, under his leadership, the studio's two B-games received rave reviews in the two-dimensional circle. That was also the first time the studio made money.
After becoming rich, some people start to act like evil.
"Our art director, Director Lu, had an affair with his mistress when she was in elementary school, and he never paid a penny for child support. Later, our game made money, and Director Lu's art design won a national award, so that shameless father came to bully them and asked Director Lu for one million yuan in child support!" Speaking of this, Ai Si was still indignant. "At that time, the studio had just started to pick up, and everyone was preparing to go on a team building trip. After knowing this, Director Si immediately made the decision to choose Director Lu's hometown as the location for the team building, and we went to educate her father. This tradition has continued to this day."
