Chapter 897 Promotion Anxiety
"I've done some research, and she did receive the highest-level scholarship throughout her four years in college.
She said that because she was not her biological parent, she was eager to earn money after graduation. The internship salary at a law firm was too low, so she chose the better-paid position of assistant to the president of STG, which made sense.
"Is she from the law department?" I sat up straight.
Xiao Shiqiu raised his eyebrows, "Yes, so she did help me a lot in the past three years, including when I wanted to divorce.
She gave me a lot of advice and helped me avoid a lot of pitfalls.”
"Is it possible that she helped you get a divorce because she felt she had a chance to get promoted?" I admit that I am somewhat petty.
If it were me, I would have thought the original wife had given up her position and it was my turn, but suddenly a woman appeared out of nowhere. I would probably be very angry.
Thinking about it this way, her hostility towards me seems understandable.
Seeing that I was still trying to hold on to this topic, Xiao Shiqiu began to divert my attention, "Are you satisfied with the things Xiaoyan and the others sent you today?"
I was caught off guard by this change of topic, but I felt a little embarrassed when I thought about it. He took the trouble to buy me a bunch of things, but I haven't even said thank you yet.
In order to cover up my heartlessness, I deliberately acted coquettishly and said, "Satisfied, of course I am satisfied. For these things, they all want me to be a policewoman."
He chuckled, "Do you want to be a policewoman, or a money-giving boy?"
My smile faded and I said with a straight face, "I'm definitely a police beauty when I put on a police uniform!"
He nodded in agreement, touched his chin and said, "Of course, police uniform...well, police uniform is good...the uniform looks good...I think you can agree to it." He smiled maliciously.
"You're dreaming. I've already decided to start a studio with Tianyi and the others!
I want to be a new-age woman with my own career!"
When the studio was mentioned, he immediately became interested: "How's the progress?"
I immediately felt guilty: "I don't know, it seems, it seems that they are still looking for an office space..."
Seeing his expression of 'as expected', I quickly added, "I'm going to do it myself this time! I can't rely on you for everything!"
"Okay, okay." He raised his hands in surrender, his eyes full of doting, "If you feel that relying on your bestie gives you a sense of accomplishment rather than relying on your husband, then you can just do it slowly.
When you achieve success, I will introduce clients to you."
"Su Rina is also a shareholder!" I raised my chin proudly, "Ling Xiuzhi will definitely help."
Xiao Shiqiu narrowed his eyes: "Do you think my connections are not as good as his?"
"You two are not in the same industry. Our studio's main design focus is film and television costumes. Ling Xiuzhi is from the same industry, so of course he has an advantage over you."
He looked at me with a half-smile, "Then did you know that in this industry, besides directors, there is another type of person who also has a say?"
"Who?" I asked, blinking.
"Investors~" His smile suddenly became a little mischievous, "Otherwise, how could those 'someone's ugly children' get good resources so easily?"
I wondered who he was implying, and was about to gossip a bit, but he suddenly changed the subject, "If you like, after you finish your work for Lao Wen, you can also go and have some fun on the set. It won't be a problem to bring in money and get the second female lead."
The corner of my mouth twitched. "Forget it, I still have self-knowledge. I'm not beautiful enough to be a vase, and my acting skills are all based on bragging. I'd better not harm the eyes of the people."
In the next few days, Fang Dongmei continued to do odd jobs at COLLIN. Her daily work was to make tea and coffee, clean the office, and run errands for various designers.
I heard that some of the other new employees who joined the company at the same time have gathered together to complain about being bullied and suppressed by the old employees.
She said that she did worthless work all day long, and the only difference between her and a cleaning lady was that she cleaned the toilet.
Every day, apart from serving tea and running errands for others, there is no serious design work at all. The old employees don't give newcomers any chance at all.
Only Fang Dongmei enjoyed doing her daily chores, and her smile was not fake. Anyone could see that she was very satisfied with her current job.
Every day when she arrives at the office, she wipes each table like crazy, washes everyone's cups, remembers everyone's preferences, and makes tea for them in advance.
Her diligence made the old employees in their design studio feel embarrassed. Although she was still asked to do some errands, her attitude was obviously much better.
There were also several female designers who would bring her snacks and treat her to milk tea. She was like a fish in water in the office.
"Xiao Fang, please help me deliver this design draft to the seventh floor."
"Okay!" Fang Dongmei took the document happily.
This is what I see her doing most every day. Delivering things to different floors is her favorite job.
Designers often sit for half a day and don’t like to move.
An intern assistant like Fang Dongmei is probably the most diligent one they have ever met.
Even after she became familiar with everyone's work flow, she would take the initiative to ask if she needed help sending it to other departments.
The most amazing thing is that she even takes care of the green plants in the office meticulously.
One day, Director Zheng discovered that his cactus had flower buds. He was so surprised that his glasses slipped down his nose. "I've had this cactus for three years and it's never bloomed!"
Fang Dongmei smiled innocently beside him: "Hehe, because I changed the pot for you, really, the previous pot was plastic..."
She was doing very well, but I still ate snacks and listened to her gossip every day.
That day, Fang Dongmei went to the bathroom and before leaving, she heard two people talking outside, one of whom was Zheng Guanqian.
"Don't tell me, our department has had several intern assistants, but Xiao Fang is the most satisfactory. Unlike those students from prestigious universities, they all look down on others.
She has a really good heart and is very careful and thorough in everything she does. If she hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that the cactus my idiot bought for me to protect me from radiation was a fake one!
"Fake? Mr. Zheng, isn't the flower in bloom on your desk?" Another voice sounded a little surprised.
“She changed it for me, it was so thoughtful of her.
This child is a good person. You should teach her more when you have time. People with this kind of mentality are more likely to succeed and they should be cultivated well.
If there is a chance, let her become a regular employee early so she can start learning CAD pattern making."
Then, as the footsteps faded away, Fang Dongmei cursed softly through her earphones, "Damn, that's overdoing it!"
In the monitoring room, Luo Yong and I were laughing so hard that he almost cried. "Xiao Fang, this could be considered promotion anxiety."
It's funny, but if she really gets a permanent job, I won't be so relaxed.
I found that I was also starting to feel anxious about getting a promotion.
After receiving a call from my mother, I became even more anxious.
