We are all wooden people

<<

The back street in the early morning is very lively, crowded with people who are in a hurry to have breakfast and get ready for school and work.Li Ji Wonton entered the door at the third table from the left, and Shen Yiqing, Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming were sitting there.

"You just came back, why don't you take a few more days off to rush to work? Gu Yufan won't give you an outstanding employee award at the end of the year." Lu Hanzhi took off the disposable chopsticks and complained to Shen Yiqing incomprehensibly.

"Being idle at home is also idle, why not go to work." Shen Yiqing said indifferently, shaking the bottle of vinegar.

"You're just abusive!" Lu Hanzhi gave Shen Yiqing a blank look, not knowing how to vent the overwhelming anger in his heart.

"Hanhan, you understand me, right?" Shen Yiqing looked up at Lu Hanzhi, with dimples that blinded Lu Hanzhi on his fair face, and a pair of big eyes that were clear and bright.

Lu Hanzhi was about to blurt out his complaints and swallowed them back in an instant. The brothers who grew up together, of course, he understood that he was not only stubborn, but also stubborn like a bull. No one could persuade him to do anything he wanted to do.

"Whatever, Yuming will take you to the company later. I'll go to the bidding unit and come back to have lunch together at noon." Lu Hanzhi took the three bowls of small wontons brought by the boss on a tray and placed them in front of the three of them, and then directed Gu Yuming went to the door to get two baskets of steamed buns, "No matter what happens in the future, you should remember that you still have me."

Shen Yiqing added chili and vinegar to his bowl, after a long time, he let out an "um" in a nasal voice, just bowed his head to eat and stopped talking.

Lu Hanzhi didn't say anything anymore, he winked at Gu Yuming, and started to eat with his head buried.If there is anyone in this world who can make the long-sleeved, dancer, and exquisite Lu Hanzhi deflated and angry, Shen Yiqing will bear the brunt of it.

But so what?Lu Hanzhi is willing.

Lu Hanzhi and Shen Yiqing were the same age, and Gu Yuming was half a year younger than them. The three of them lived in a large courtyard, and they had been hanging out together since they were naked.Gu Yufan was 4 years older than Lu Hanzhi and Shen Yiqing, and he seldom played tricks with them, but he always helped them deal with the aftermath when they got into a catastrophe.Although Gu Yuming and Gu Yufan are blood brothers, Gu Yuming, who has been obedient to Brother Lu since childhood, seldom has any intimate actions with his brother. On the contrary, it is Shen Yiqing who follows him all day long like a bug. Gu Yufan was beside him.Shen Yiqing and Lu Hanzhi, to use the current buzzword to say that they are each other's best friends, are more like twins, basically sticking together except for sleeping.The four children grew up together, going out of this house and entering that house, and the three families got along harmoniously because of this, and the relationship was good regardless of each other.

Lu Hanzhi, Shen Yiqing, and Gu Yuming who was crying and shouting to go to school in the morning in order to be in the same class with them, from elementary school to high school, were in the same class in the same school.When taking the college entrance examination, Shen Yiqing followed Gu Yufan to study architectural design. Gu Yuming also studied architectural design under the pressure of his parents.It couldn't be more coincidental that the three of them were admitted to the same major in the same school in the same city at the same time.When the admission notice came, the adults of the three families couldn't help laughing. These three were born to be tied together, and they couldn't be separated.

After Gu Yufan graduated from university, he opened the only design studio by himself.The size of the studio is small, but it has been widely praised in the industry for its innovative and bold design style and its high-quality line. Especially after Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming joined the only one, they quickly became a rising star in the architectural design industry of the imperial capital. No one can compete with other established companies.

When Lu Hanzhi, Shen Yiqing, and Gu Yuming first entered college, Gu Yufan told them earnestly that they had to study hard, and they needed brothers to fight tigers.After the Three Musketeers graduated, both Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming entered the company as agreed, and followed Gu Yufan to expand the territory, but Shen Yiqing resolutely chose to leave.Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming didn't understand, but they both respected his choice and expressed their support for good brothers forever. Only Gu Yufan, after staring at Shen Yiqing for half an hour, got up and patted him on the shoulder without saying a word. leave.Half a month later, I personally delivered the admission letter from the most famous design school in France and a one-way ticket to Paris.

From childhood to adulthood, the relationship between Gu Yufan and Shen Yiqing has made Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming elusive.Also as a younger brother, Gu Yufan's love for Shen Yiqing can't even be compared to Gu Yuming's own younger brother. It is obviously not just a relationship between brothers, but the two of them stick to the principles they should have, and they can't beat each other in one step. Not beyond.Gu Yuming couldn't stand the cautious restraint of the two of them. He once jokingly said that it doesn't matter if his sister-in-law is a man as long as he likes it.However, Shen Yiqing acted as if he hadn't heard it, completely ignoring the temptations of Gu Yuming and Lu Hanzhi, the instigator behind it.Later, Lu Hanzhi and Gu Yuming no longer bothered to prove anything. As long as the two of them felt that this kind of relationship was okay, what else could outsiders say.

When Gu Yuming and Shen Yiqing walked into the company's large conference room, it was already full of people. Except for Gu Yufan who was on wedding leave and Lu Hanzhi who was going to the bidding unit, all the staff of the only company were present.Although the only one is small in scale, several cases are often carried out at the same time, and there are very few meetings like this where all members are present.Everyone is so enthusiastic about this morning meeting today, but they just want to see who the design director is who has been vacant since the only registration and opening.When Shen Yiqing entered the meeting room, he could clearly hear the sound of discussion that was still murmuring and suddenly fell silent, and everyone's attention was focused on him.

Gu Yuming cleared his throat, and pushed Shen Yiqing in front of him, "Design Director, Shen Yiqing, just returned from studying in Paris."

"Hi everyone, I'm Shen Yiqing." Shen Yiqing bowed slightly, gave a kind smile, glanced around with clear eyes, then dragged Gu Yuming to sit down, and started today's meeting.

Shen Yiqing sat next to Gu Yuming, listening to him arrange the company's work arrangements and plans for this week in an orderly manner, it was impossible not to be shocked.I think that the kid who ran wildly with him and Lu Hanzhi in the compound back then, climbing up and down, can now support the operation of the entire company alone when Gu Yufan is away.In the past four years, how much has he missed?

"Brother, do you have anything else to add?" Yu Ming whispered to Shen Yiqing.

Shen Yiqing nodded, "Colleagues from the design department stay here, and the others leave the meeting."

Gu Yuming got up and waved his hand. Except for the employees of the design department, everyone else quickly left the meeting room.

"It's my first day at work today, and I don't know you very well, so I need you to do the following things to help me quickly get familiar with your design styles. First, please make a summary analysis of your past designs, including The design concept at that time, the environmental analysis, and the ideas expressed in the final shaped works. Secondly, please analyze the work in progress now, including what difficulties you encountered in the design, and please explain in detail. Finally, please Everyone carefully wrote a work plan, clearly stating the design route they want to take in the future and the type of building they want to design. Are there any questions?" After all non-design department employees left the meeting room, Shen Yiqing began to arrange him as a designer. The first task of the director.

"No." Everyone answered in unison, but their hearts were a little flustered.This director looks as kind and polite as Lu Hanzhi, the director of the marketing department, but he works as vigorously and resolutely as the CEO Gu Yufan.

"Well, then please send it to my mailbox before Wednesday." Shen Yiqing nodded, turned his head and motioned to the man who had been standing beside him holding a thick stack of documents and said, "Sixian, Send it to everyone."

The boy named Qi Sixian nodded, and sent everyone the materials he had sorted out in his arms.

"I don't know what your previous working environment was like, and I don't know what the operating procedures of other departments are, but starting today, I hope that everyone will carry out the work of the design department in accordance with this Standard Operation Process (SOP). If you have any questions, please You are welcome to come to me at any time. Everyone knows where my office is, right?" Shen Yiqing said with a stylized smile.

"I know." Everyone who was still in a hurry just now felt a little relaxed. This director is not the same as the CEO, and he didn't put a lot of pressure on everyone despite being strict.

"Then that's it for today, let's end the meeting." Shen Yiqing tidied up the notebook spread out in front of him, got up and left the meeting room, Qi Sixian immediately followed him and left quickly.

When Qi Sixian walked into Shen Yiqing's office with a coffee cup in his hand, he saw Shen Yiqing staring at the floor-to-ceiling windows in a daze, wondering what he was thinking.

"Director, the coffee you want." Qi Sixian put the coffee cup on Shen Yiqing's table, stood up straight, and waited for Shen Yiqing's next instruction.

"Sixian, when did you come to the company?" Shen Yiqing didn't look back, and didn't care about the coffee, he asked a question on a whim.

"I graduated from university the year before last, and this is my third year in the company." Qi Sixian didn't know what Shen Yiqing was asking, and answered his question cautiously.

"What work did you do before?"

"Assist President Gu in the design department."

Shen Yiqing nodded and stopped talking, the office suddenly fell into silence, just when Qi Sixian was tangling whether to stay or go out, Shen Yiqing suddenly said, "Go and clean up, go somewhere with me."

Sitting on the roof of a tall building, leaning against a concrete pier, with the cold wind pouring into the not-so-thick sweater, Qi Sixian felt a little cold.He rubbed his arms with his hands, trying to generate some heat so that he would not feel so uncomfortable from the cold.

Shen Yiqing, who was drinking a can of beer, squinted at Sixian who was sitting next to him, took off his suit jacket and handed it to Sixian, "Here, put it on, it's just summer, the roof is indeed a bit cold."

Qi Sixian looked at Shen Yiqing, the flat ironed white shirt wrapped Shen Yiqing's tight skin, and the sleeves of the shirt were rolled up to the elbow joints at the same time as he handed him the suit.Wearing a shirt in such a cold weather, and drinking cold beer, and comparing my performance, I suddenly felt that I was weak.

"Director Shen, it's okay, I'm not cold." Qi Sixian shook his head, adjusted the suit a little to avoid wrinkles, and handed it to Shen Yiqing.

"You don't have to be so cautious in front of me. I'm not much older than you. In private, you can call me Yiqing just like Lu Hanzhi and the others. If it's difficult to speak, you can also call me Kevin." Shen Yiqing didn't take the suit, Backhand pushed the suit to Sixian again.

Qi Sixian didn't refuse anymore, but he didn't put on the suit either, he just folded it a little and hugged it in his arms.

"I, Hanzhi, Yu Ming and Yu Fan grew up together. Although Yu Ming and Yu Fan are blood brothers, the four of us have a deep relationship that has long surpassed blood relationship." Shen Yiqing glanced at Qi Sixian, without thinking He continued to push back, turned his head to look at a group of white pigeons flying by in the distance, and said to himself.

Qi Sixian nodded, and said subconsciously, "I can tell."

"What?" Qi Sixian's voice was too low for Shen Yiqing to hear clearly.

"I said, you have a good relationship with Mr. Gu, I can tell. The position of design director has been vacant since I came to Unique. Out of curiosity, I asked other seniors in the company. The seniors said that Mr. Gu said that this The position belongs to you, but you are going to France for further studies, so this position has been vacant until you come back. That's why, the only design department has always had only the deputy director. If there is any emergency, Mr. Gu will personally It's dealt with." Qi Sixian's voice was a little louder, and she patiently explained to Shen Yiqing.

"Really?" The expression on Shen Yiqing's face was somewhat obscure, Qi Sixian couldn't understand it.

"Well, Vice President Gu told me last week that you may come to work this week, so let me clean up your office in advance and prepare the materials you need in case of emergencies." Qi Sixian didn't know how to respond With Shen Yiqing's incomprehensible expression, he could only tell what he knew.

Shen Yiqing nodded, drank the almost empty can in his hand, threw it to his side, took out another can from the plastic bag, opened it and handed it to Sixian, "Don't you want to drink?"

"We came here today by car. Recently, the inspection for drunk driving is very strict. Wait until I drive you home." Qi Sixian carefully rejected Shen Yiqing's invitation, and conveniently put away the empty jar that Shen Yiqing had just thrown aside.

"Four years ago, when Hanzhi and Yuming and I were about to graduate from university, Gu Yufan came to ask the three of us to let us airborne directly. They agreed without any surprise, but I refused. They didn't understand me at the time, but because They are brothers, and they all supported me, but during that time, it was the trough of our four friendships." Shen Yiqing continued to tell stories to Qi Sixian, with a calm voice as if talking about other people's affairs.

"Then why did you reject Mr. Gu? You have such a good relationship." The innocent Qi Sixian didn't understand Shen Yiqing's original choice.

"Sixian, you have been with Gu Yufan for three years. You should know who he is. Even if he is exhausted himself, he will never let me be wronged. The only way to walk the rivers and lakes is by creative design, but my original level, It is definitely not enough to be the only design director. I don't want him to be embarrassed every time because my design does not meet his requirements. I hope to help him within my ability, so I insist on going to France to continue my studies. "Shen Yiqing didn't know why, these things that he had never said to Lu Hanzhi and the others, but wanted to say to Qi Sixian who just met today.

Qi Sixian looked at Shen Yiqing, the setting sun set off his silhouette extraordinarily softly, this plainly stated inner monologue unexpectedly grabbed his heart hard.The Shen Yiqing at work I saw in the morning is concise and capable. Although he is not as full of aura as Gu Yufan, his authority at work cannot be questioned by others.But now, he is a little melancholy.

"Sixian, in the only one, I am a newcomer, and you are my right and left hand. I need your absolute loyalty and hard work to make me a world for Gu Yufan. Can you do it?" Shen Yiqing turned to look at Sixian, The sign of please in the clear eyes Qi Sixian didn't miss it.

"Kevin, don't worry, I will definitely work hard." In such a split second, Qi Sixian suddenly let go of the superior-subordinate relationship he had just guarded very well.Shen Yiqing possessed such a magical power, a few idle words made him willing to go through fire and water and do his best to help him realize his dream.

Shen Yiqing patted Qi Sixian on the shoulder and stopped talking, the two fell into silence like this.

Brother Fanfan, I am already running towards you with all my strength, if you wait for me, I will definitely be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with you in a superior posture, and make a difference with you.
