because i'm pretty

Chapter 2 What's the use of looking good?

Zoe, as the HR who had confronted Li Yikai countless times, when she saw Yuan Zhiming coming out, she knew she had failed this time.

Reluctantly stepping on her high heels, she chased after him: "Why, Mr. Kevin, what's the problem this time?"

"There are problems everywhere, and nothing has its surface." Li Yikai walked straight through the corridor and office area without pausing, and sat down in his dark green office chair amidst curious eyes.

"Expand and talk? I'll pay attention next time."

"The water content of this kind of work is too..." Li Yikai frowned and just said halfway, when he saw Feng Xin also heard the sound from the corner of his eyes, he held back the second half of the sentence, and only said vaguely, "I'll talk to you later. Said," and waved Zoe to leave quickly.

"What moisture? Is the portfolio fake? How did Zoe select it?" Feng Xin still heard the first half of the sentence, and immediately sent questions like a cannonball.

"It's not fake." Li Yikai frowned, "He has too little experience and no brand thinking."

"Oh, you are too demanding." Feng Xin patted Li Yikai on the shoulder, "You can't ask everyone to be like you, have design ability, handle customers and come up with strategies."

Li Yikai retorted: "All my requirements are the most basic."

"Then how does he draw?"

It was this kind of problem again, Li Yikai said impatiently: "What's the use of painting well? It's useless to paint like Wang Daqi, I don't need an artist."

Feng Xin smiled: "If it's really Wang Daqi, you don't want it either?"

Li Yikai didn't want to answer such nonsensical questions.

Facing Li Yikai, Feng Xin has long been used to being closed doors. The boss of such a big company can only find a way for himself: "But the Hongda project can no longer be delayed. I will give you a few more interviews in the last week. I said, give you old Liu Yun."

Li Yikai hesitated to speak, and before he could say anything else, Feng Xin had already pretended to go to the meeting, leaving him with the ruthless back of a capitalist.

He didn't want to take the Hongda project from the very beginning. Firstly, the client was not professional enough and the demand was unconstrained; secondly, the team was short of manpower, and it happened that a senior designer was on maternity leave. No one could withstand such a huge project.

Li Yikai is unwilling to do things that he is not sure of, but for the boss Feng Xin, Li Yikai is his confidence.It seemed that as long as he nodded, there was no need to worry about other issues.

So after three long talks, promising a salary increase and a year-end bonus for the whole team, and urgently hiring a designer with a high salary—Li Yikai had no choice but to agree.

Li Yikai would never act emotionally on what he promised, so he had nowhere to vent his anger at this time, so he could only turn on the computer and start deleting files one by one.

Just cleaned up two, the sound of rattling high-heeled shoes came, and a glass of iced Americano was placed on his coaster.

"Thank you", came out a word coldly.

After 2 minutes, he raised his head and said to the short-haired girl Gao who was standing in front of him, "What's the matter?"

Sun Shanshan is the project manager who has been with Li Yikai for two years, and she has no fear in the face of icebergs.

Immediately, the corners of the mouth curled up in a gossiping arc: "The little brother who interviewed today...is really good-looking!"

Li Yikai's deep eyelids drooped again, he took a sip of his iced coffee, his face became even colder: "It's useless, pass."

Sun Shanshan came prepared after inquiring with Zoe, she was not surprised at all, she just said, "Then...boss, boss?"

"What are you doing? Are you free?" Li Yikai looked up angrily.

"If I have something to do, I will secretly ask a question." Sun Shanshan gestured with her fingers, "Is it straight or curved?"

"how could I know?"

"That seems straight," Sun Shanshan said firmly, "otherwise you wouldn't be so indifferent."

Li Yikai was almost laughed out of anger, but the cup of coffee was still in front of him, and the red maple leaf logo was perfectly facing his line of sight at a 45-degree angle.

Eat people with short mouths.

Sun Shanshan refused to accept it, and said in a low voice: "I saw that you added him on WeChat, can you push it to me?"

Li Yikai directly pushed her a 500MB full English ppt.

The world is finally quiet, but the good mood of the day's work is also ruined.

Li Yikai's desk is in the corner by the window. He turned his head and looked at the waning autumn outside the window. He couldn't help but think that this line of work is really busy. Whether it is himself or the team members below, he goes to work brightly every day, but after work Not even a date.

And this kind of life lasted for several years.

As a result, once you meet a strange person with online appearance and temperament, the heartbeat of half the company will be like a symphony one after another.

But what's the use of looking good, Li Yikai thought of the messy curly hair and the introduction of divergent thinking.

Anyway, it is never possible to work with such a person at work.

After thinking for a while, he finally took out the silver-gray mobile phone.

Li Yikai is used to turning off the notifications of this phone when he is working.

He aimed at the camera blankly, and unlocked his face to reveal the main screen.

The apps on the mobile phone are classified according to the color, and they are visually orderly——

The first screen is a red app collection.

The second screen is orange and yellow.

The third screen is green.

Slide to the third screen, from top to bottom, yellow-green-positive-green-blue-green in order, from warm to cold in an orderly row, the green is pure and thorough, without any impurities.

Not even a little red dot notification!

Not a single friend request!

Li Yikai drank half a glass of iced Americano in one gulp.

The pride of the day was also completely ruined.

At this moment, Yuan Zhiming sneezed while standing downstairs in the Universal Building.

He slept for a total of three hours yesterday, and because he was late in the morning and didn't have time to eat, he was in a daze, accompanied by dizziness due to hypoglycemia.

Especially when he was standing under the warm autumn sun, he narrowed his eyes, which he couldn't keep open.

what just happened?

The interview must have failed again.

Director, he is quite right, but if possible, who would not want to focus on art.

I don't know if I have added WeChat, will I have the opportunity to receive some business orders in the future...

Oh to WeChat.

Yuan Zhiming just scanned the QR code and walked out before he could operate it.

At this moment, he remembered and took out his mobile phone, and saw that the other party's WeChat name was simply a "K", and his profile picture was...

Before he could see the profile picture clearly, a voice call came in.

Yuan Zhiming was in a trance, his hands moved before his brain, and he clicked on the connection.

"Uncle Qiu".

"Xiao Ming, didn't I bother you to draw?"

"No." Yuan Zhiming's eyelids opened a little as a car whistle sounded from the road in the distance, "Uh, I'm outside and I didn't draw."

"Oh, it's good to exercise more," Qiu He said with the kindness of an elder, "Your father always said that he was afraid that you would sit in the house all day, day and night."

Yuan Zhiming's nose was a little dry, he touched it: "Well, I'm going out for a walk, don't worry, Uncle Qiu."

"Okay, okay." Qiu He laughed twice, "I called you because I wanted to tell you good news."

"For Wang Daqi's solo exhibition this time, I recommended two of your works to be selected, and they will be placed in the outer exhibition hall."

A ray of sunlight passed through the glass curtain wall of the building and hit Yuan Zhiming's face, his eyes lit up: "Really? Thank you, Uncle Qiu!"

Qiu He hehe continued to laugh, "Oh, thank you, it's only in the free area to accompany the exhibition, and the main thing is that the works are good and Wang Daqi himself approves them."

Yuan Zhiming also laughed.

Qiu He said again: "There is also the opening on weekends. I have left a ticket for you. When you come over, I have the opportunity to introduce you to Wang Daqi."

"Well, uh...will it take up your time?" Yuan Zhiming asked first.

Qiu He said: "You're welcome, if you don't come, I'll give you the ticket."

"Go, go," Yuan Zhiming readily agreed, pulling the strap of the schoolbag on his shoulder.

The autumn sun is just right, and the yellow-green leaves are divided into different layers in his eyes. The wind blows the leaves and falls, drawing a beautiful arc.

Wang Daqi's earliest works that became famous at home and abroad were themed with "autumn leaves", a group of works that not only have the national style of Zen, but also have very avant-garde colors and styles...

Ah!

Yuan Zhiming remembered that Director Li's avatar looked familiar, it seemed to be a superimposed picture of brown and green - very similar to Wang Daqi's set.

He took out his mobile phone and wanted to continue the action of adding friends just now.

Open it but only see the chat interface of "Qiu He" - "Xiao Ming, just come to my art gallery at 11 am on weekends"

And the interface for adding friends just now has long since disappeared...

Li Yikai's silver cell phone was quietly lying in the drawer. He was clacking on the keyboard on the work computer, talking to a difficult female client, and finally he felt relieved.

A WeChat message pops up from Zoe——

"Thank you, Mr. Kevin, for just rescuing the siege! I will politely decline Yuan Zhiming's side. I didn't ask clearly this time. I'm really sorry. I invite you to drink coffee~"

Li Yikai managed to forget that curly hair, and was aroused by this sentence again.

The 37-degree hand typed a cold text: "No, I've already drank it."

Zoe was used to him like this, and continued to reply without any qualms: "Okay, okay."

"Hee hee, let's take a look at the art exhibition! There is an invitation letter from my boyfriend's partner, I heard it is very famous."

Li Yikai continued: "No need"

Zoe: "Oh, give me a chance to redeem my sins, and I don't know much about art, so it's a waste for me to see it. If I want to go to the whole company, I can only give it to you~"

Zoe: "picture"

Li Yikai took a breath, and on the thumbnail poster, he could see the words

"Wang Daqi: Another Autumn | First Exhibition in Jinghai City"

Zoe: "It also said that this invitation letter is for the first exhibition day, and the artist will have a face-to-face salon."

Li Yikai held his breath in his chest, tapped his fingers on the table for a while, and his brows still suddenly opened——

"Okay then, I'll treat you to afternoon tea later."
