Yang Lu walked to the sofa with a suspicious look on her face.
The telephone was housed in a wooden box and was only opened when a call was made.
There's no way around it, the kids love to tinker with things, so putting it in a box can prevent them from dialing random numbers.
Yang Lu picked up the phone, and her brother Yang Shu's voice came from the other end.
His voice was deep and magnetic. Congratulations to Yang Lu on her marriage.
"Thank you, brother. When are you coming back?"
Yang Lu hadn't seen him for a long time.
Yang Shu's voice carried a hint of sadness:
"I miss my Lulu too, but the company has a new project and I don't have time to go back. I really want to hug my Lulu!"
Yang Lu chuckled softly, "Don't be so mushy. Come back as soon as your project is finished."
She glanced at Ji Yang and said to him:
"By the way, I have a friend whose child went to the University of the Witwatersrand in the United States. It's not far from where you work. Could you take care of him when you have time?"
Yang Shu readily agreed and even wrote down Ji Tingting's name and school.
He would do anything Yang Lu asked him to do.
When she returned to the table, everyone asked curiously what Yang Lu's brother did.
"I heard it's at a company called Apple."
Yang Lu didn't really understand either.
Jiang Ning was astonished. Was her brother really that capable of getting a job at Apple?
Apple was founded in 1976 and is currently in its early stages of development. Thinking about becoming a giant in the communications industry, she feels that its future is bright.
Jiaojiao asked innocently:
Is Apple Inc. the place where apples are made?
Yang Lu replied with a smile, "No, apples grow on trees. Apple Inc. is just using that name. It should be a technology company that makes communications."
Tongtong immediately became interested: "What is communication? And what is technology?"
Why are these terms so unfamiliar to them, they've never heard of them before?
Yang Lu shrugged, unsure how to answer. Jiang Ning picked up the conversation.
"Communication is about enabling communication. For example, our home phone can be used to make calls from the US, which is on the other side of the ocean, allowing two people to talk."
But how do we make this call possible? It depends on the inventions and creations of scientists, and those inventions and creations are science and technology.
Currently, international long-distance calls, such as those from Country M, don't go directly to this phone number. Instead, they are transferred through an intermediary, which can involve a long wait before the call connects.
Jiaojiao and Tongtong listened attentively, though they seemed to understand but not quite.
Tongtong suddenly asked, "What if there's an emergency during a long call? Can we invent a phone that can be used anytime, anywhere?"
Jiang Ning laughed: "That's a great idea. I heard that the US is already researching real-time mobile calling technology, which means that you can hold the phone in your hand and call the other person anytime you have a phone."
Jiaojiao exclaimed in surprise:
"Carrying a telephone with you every day is too inconvenient."
Tongtong pondered, rubbing her chin.
"If we just made the phone smaller, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
Jiang Ning smiled with delight: "Tongtong, you have a good imagination. You could consider pursuing a career in science and technology in the future."
Tongtong blushed instantly after being praised like that.
"I just said it offhand."
But afterwards, his interest in science grew even stronger, and he developed a love for taking things apart at a young age.
Fortunately, Wang Xiufen had locked the phone securely and escaped his clutches.
......
The north wind howled, and the weather grew colder day by day.
Jiang Ning wrapped her woolen coat tighter around herself and pushed open the company door.
A cool breeze blew in, and Wang Meizhu immediately put down what she was holding and greeted her.
Good morning, Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Ning nodded and walked upstairs.
As soon as she entered the office, Xu Yan handed her a stack of documents to sign.
Most of the orders that I asked her to negotiate before have already been finalized.
"Based on your estimates, will these orders be profitable?" Jiang Ning asked while signing the papers.
Xu Yan thought for two seconds and replied:
"We're barely making any profit. We're just starting out, and we have to build a lot of things from scratch, which will be quite costly."
But as long as they get new orders, we're sure we'll make a profit.
"Okay, you can follow up on these projects. Call Xiao Zhou over."
After Jiang Ning finished signing, he handed the document to her.
After a while, Zhou Yun came in wearing high heels.
She was wearing a light yellow cotton-padded jacket today, with a belt around her waist, and she had a very outstanding presence.
The staff members selected by Jiang Ning are all good-looking (8 out of 10) and have outstanding temperament.
Zhou Yun used to work as a salesperson at a clothing company. She turned a clothing factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy into a leading company in the industry. She was a very capable employee.
Jiang Ning immediately made her the team leader.
Zhou Yun was called in because she had several orders that needed her to handle.
These projects are all quite large, and she manages them all personally.
However, some errands still need to be done by the staff below.
"When the company grows bigger, we will appoint a director. Do a good job, and I will choose between you and Xu Yan."
The most important thing for a boss is to be able to make grand promises and motivate employees.
Zhou Yun took the documents and smiled:
"President Jiang, I will definitely work hard to complete the task."
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.
Her ambition was written all over her face.
Jiang Ning is not worried at all about their ambitions and is willing to give them a platform and opportunities because value is created by everyone's joint efforts; you can't accomplish great things by working alone.
Of course, as long as the company is profitable, the rewards they receive will be very generous.
After finishing her work for the day, she picked up her child with her bag and went to the police station to inquire about the results of the investigation into Feng Shuyao.
The police told her that they had sent someone to take Li Damei's statement, but she denied seeing Feng Shuyao switch the children.
We need to find more people from the hospital at the time to provide evidence.
Furthermore, without proving that she and Feng Shuyao are not related by blood, the case cannot be solved.
Jiang Ning reminded him:
“There is a DNA paternity testing technology abroad that can confirm whether two people are related. We could introduce it.”
"Okay, we'll consider it. You can go home and wait for the results."
The police said they would investigate further and notify her of the results later.
Jiang Ning went to the kindergarten with a slight sense of disappointment.
As soon as Jiaojiao saw her, she told her that the school had organized a fundraising event for Zhuangzhuang.
"The teacher said we can go to the hospital to see him, should we go?" Jiaojiao asked innocently.
Jiang Ning rubbed her head:
"Once he recovers, you will naturally be able to see him."
As she was leading the children back, she saw a woman wearing a mask leading a child named Kun Kun past her on another road.
Looking at her back, she was reminded of Ma Huijuan.
She shook her head and smiled. Ma Huijuan has been gone for so many years, her grave must be overgrown with weeds by now.
