Brainoid

Chapter 160 Chatting on the Road

The administrators who participated in the strike were arranged with people from the marketing team for "team building", and the management department's scheming was very obvious.

Qi Min looked at the two girls across from him without concealing it, and then said: "We work in the same company, and we know each other when we meet. It's good to help them with anything in the future."

"That's right." The girl from the marketing team immediately answered, "Your accent sounds like a local?"

"Well, that's right." Qi Min replied with a smile.

"I'm from Tianjin." The girl from the marketing team asked the administrator girl again, "Who are you?"

"I'm from Baoding." The administrator girl replied.

"Then Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei are all here." The girl in the marketing group quickly found the topic, "There are not many people from North China in our marketing group, and even northerners don't make up the majority. I usually listen to my roommate's voice calls at home when I'm on a business trip, it's really I can’t understand a word.”

"That's not true." The administrator girl also became a little more lively, "They are all... working in Beijing."

She seemed to glance at Qi Min unintentionally, as if she was a little curious that a local had to do a job as an administrator that was even more intensive than 996.

Qi Min said quickly: "That's true. It's just a remote suburb where my home is, and working in the city is no different."

"Hey, can't your administrator work from home?" the girl from the marketing team asked casually.

"If you have a stable job, you can stay at home, but why don't you go to the department at the beginning?" Qi Min still has some understanding of the previous work requirements of the management department.

Before the second expansion of administrator recruitment, the grassroots administrators of Brainoid Company were still required to be centralized online. Later, the demand for labor increased sharply, and there was no way to relax the requirements. In fact, centralized online access has at least two benefits for employees: First, it draws a clear line between work and life. Administrators can be on duty as long as they need to, and there is no requirement to stay online 24 hours a day at home. The second is that administrators concentrate their work on the line and rest on the line. There is no reason for superiors to use monitoring assistants to monitor, which is equivalent to reducing psychological pressure.

"Hey, I really don't know much about the administrator's job." The girl from the marketing team sighed casually, "But I heard that the administrator is also really tired. Why did the union come forward to negotiate for a salary increase a few days ago? Anyway, I probably can’t do this job, which is why I didn’t get a raise.”

It seems that the management department is mildly saying that "the union negotiates for a salary increase" to other internal staff, but in fact, the managers' strike organization is almost in the faces of everyone at the headquarters.

The administrator girl seemed a little unhappy after hearing this, and whispered: "I can't even get much money for a salary increase."

"Hey, there is still a surplus of labor force. It would be good if we can eat." The girl in the marketing team saw it clearly and took a very open-minded view. "As long as you don't get married, you can still live a comfortable life."

"Don't worry," the administrator girl said, "you still have to have hope in life."

"Look at what you said, what kind of hope is getting married?" The girl from the marketing team leaned back in her chair and sighed, "Having a wedding, buying a car, paying off a mortgage... which one doesn't cost money?"

Qi Min felt that this was correct, but it was a bit radical to say it on this occasion, so he went back and added: "But life is not only about money. If both of you feel that it is suitable, getting married is okay."

"What's wrong, you're married?" asked the girl from the marketing team.

"It's over." Qi Min replied calmly. Twenty or thirty years ago, there were probably not many girls of this age who were not married, but now in a random sample of first-tier cities, it is likely that only a minority are married.

"How much did you spend on your wedding?" the girl from the marketing team then asked.

Qi Min recalled that she didn't buy a house when she got married, and she didn't buy a car because she didn't get the lottery number. It seemed... she just spent the money on registration and certification? Oh, it seems more than that, when she took Yelena to Beijing, she also bought a pair of platinum rings as wedding rings. At that time, she spent a lot of money impulsively, but now it seems like she spent no money.

"That adds up to one thousand seventeen." Qi Min replied simply.

"Oh, that's all?" The girl from the marketing team was stunned, "You just had a meal at a wedding?"

"There's no wedding - why do we need a wedding?" Qi Min asked.

She only started to think about whether to get married after she went abroad to study for a Ph.D., and in the American concept, whoever wants a wedding more should be the one who gets married. It happens that in the United States, most girls want to fulfill their wedding dreams, so many girls are struggling to save money for weddings. As a person with social phobia in formal occasions, Qi Min naturally couldn't want that kind of thing. She didn't know if Anton wanted that thing, but according to the logic that whoever wants it should pay for it, Anton couldn't get it even if he wanted to. Pay that much money. So even if they get married, it's basically the acquiescence of both parties that there won't be a wedding.

"Then... can it be done without a wedding?" the administrator girl asked in a low voice with some hesitation.

"What's wrong with this? Which law stipulates that a wedding must be held to get married?" Qi Min was proud of his former wit. Really, as long as the desire is low, no one can take advantage of him. "What can't you save this money for?" .”

"But there is no wedding. One thousand seventeen is too little, right?" The girl from the marketing team tried to prove that it was impossible to spend such a small amount of money. "The engagement ring alone is more than one thousand seventeen, right?"

"One thousand seven is mainly a wedding ring, and there were hundreds of discounts on food at that time." Qi Min felt that she was extremely clever at that time. After that time, she had never seen such a cheap pair of rings with the same quality.

"Does the Qianqi wedding ring have any diamonds?" asked the girl from the marketing team.

"Of course not." Qi Min continued to say smugly, "Diamonds are an IQ tax. Now that synthetic technology has become so advanced, there is no difference in all aspects."

"Isn't it true that luxury goods are all luxury goods? But diamonds are a symbol." The girl from the marketing team retorted. At this time, she seemed to have come to the side of "marriage is useful" and was on the opposite side of her original point of view.

"What does a diamond symbolize? You have to emancipate your mind. Why does it have to be symbolized by diamonds?" Qi Min found a place to talk nonsense about her anti-consumerism theory. "'Diamonds are Forever' was originally an advertisement. Words, what are advertising slogans? It is an ideology, and ideology is naturally non-material from a certain perspective. In other words, the price of diamonds in the current market system is not determined by its material characteristics. Determined. For you, for example, you think the diamond is a symbol of something, so it is worth so much money. But for me, I think it is nothing, and it may not even be worth my breakfast tomorrow."

"That's a bit much," said the girl from the marketing team.

"Let me make an analogy." Qi Min also felt that there was no need to be too radical, but still said, "From another perspective, we don't care how much a diamond is worth in the market, but you have to use it after you buy it, so it The use value is more important. But what is the reality? For people who do not agree with the symbol of diamonds, they cannot realize that use value even if they buy diamonds. Take my example, did you buy the diamond? No. Was the proposal successful? It was successful. Isn’t that what it means? No matter what symbol it is, or even why it was proposed, maybe you didn’t intend to propose in the first place, but you just say it was successful or not? As long as it is successful, no matter what it is Whether it’s tens of thousands or one thousand and seventy-seven, it doesn’t matter.”

"That's what I say, but not everyone can succeed with a thousand-seven ring." The girl in the marketing team seemed to have never seen anyone who could speak more fluently than herself. "At least the one with a thousand-seven is good." Tens of thousands, don’t you think differently?”

Qi Min was just about to say, "As long as it succeeds, it doesn't matter what your intentions are." Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Anton walking over with instant noodles, and quickly changed his words: "This matter is about the heart, not the track. We are so tight that there is nothing we can do about it." , as long as you have the intention.”

Qi Min (face to face): Talking about the heart but not the traces.

Qi Min (behind): One thousand and seven ≈ for free (chicken thief.jpg)

Reverse reflection: You can’t lick a dog if you don’t want to house it. If everything else is in place, you can just give it for free. Basically, you can’t lick anything that costs a lot of money (manual squinting)
