Chapter 16 This is the workplace
The thought flashed past.
Because Sun Tao still prefers mature and plump ones.
……
At eight o'clock, the list was posted on the bulletin board of the Cultural Palace.
The final split plan has been finalized. Who are the new leaders on both sides? Who will stay in the Cultural Palace and who will be kicked out to the song and dance troupe? They are all on the left and right lists.
Even those who already know the results want to take another look at the list to feel at ease.
When Sun Tao drove in, there was a sea of people in front of the main building.
The Workers' Cultural Palace is in a state of paralysis today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. It is estimated that this state will continue until September 1st, but no one outside knows about it.
This place has been in recession for a long time. Except for movies organized by primary and secondary schools, where celebrities visit acupuncture points, and major festivals such as National Day, New Year's Day, and Spring Festival, the Cultural Palace is basically deserted.
The government can no longer afford to support these immortals, and it will be a matter of time before they are split up.
……
No one left after reading the list. In the past, even the foreign workers used to pretend, but now they no longer pretend.
Just get together and chat.
There will be an all-staff meeting at ten o'clock. It is said that the director of the Cultural Palace is going to thank the employees who have left for their contributions over the years.
[QNMD, I heard him thank you for the ball. 】
[MLGB, he’s having a meeting up there and I’m stabbing people down below. 】
[Hahaha, shit, you kicked us out and you still want to show off. 】
The official split will not be until September 1st, but now, the members of the song and dance troupe who used to bow to the director and praise his virtues have already regarded director Zhou Haiming as a piece of shit.
[After all, we are still members of the Cultural Palace, so it would be a bad idea not to participate. 】
[What's wrong? If you go and participate, he can prepare it for you. Aren't you disgusted by watching him act? 】
[I’m not afraid of him, but if you change your attitude immediately, I don’t want to think about what the new leader will think of you! 】
……
When the blue Mazda appeared, many people saw it. This car was originally used to pick up distinguished guests, and all the old employees knew it.
It was just after 7 o'clock when Sun Tao drove out, and few people paid attention. But when he got out of the car, hundreds of people looked at him.
White T-shirt, jeans, sneakers.
People who thought he was nothing have started labeling him.
【Who is this person? Never seen it. 】
[Xiao Sun from the Logistics Department, a plumber, heard that he was kicked out to the song and dance troupe before his probation period. 】
[Why does the song and dance troupe need plumbers? Aren’t all the venues owned by the Palace of Culture? 】
[Being a driver, don’t you see? 】
[Stop asking, the drivers are all the leaders’ confidants. Didn’t you see that all five people in the team stayed behind! 】
[Fuck, kick away the useful ones and keep all the useless ones...]
[What about this car? 】
[I heard that they were assigned to the song and dance troupe. Six cars were allocated to the song and dance troupe. Two cars were allocated to the song and dance troupe. In addition to this Mazda, there is also a Passat]
……
These people were talking in the distance, and when Sun Tao came closer, they all smiled.
They all believed that this boy must be the new leader's confidant. "Hey, Sun Tao, are these the ones you're driving from Captain Wen or Captain Zhang?"
Sun Tao was about to go back to the logistics office. Xu Yunyun, Zhang Na, and Zhu Sheng gathered around him. Song Xuejia and Wang Hui, who usually treated him as nothing, also came over. The smiles on their faces were so damn sincere.
Sun Tao, "I don't know. Captain Wen asked me to drive. I don't know who will sit on the seat."
Song Xuejia, "Captain Wen? You also know Captain Wen!"
Sun Tao laughed, "We only played basketball together, so I don't know how he knew I could drive."
He didn't lie either. The two of them did meet on the basketball court, just this morning.
Sun Tao turned the key around on his finger and put it into his pocket, "Well, I'm going back to the office first. What are you doing here? Haven't you seen the list yet?"
Tong Bin came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Whatever you look at, the result won't change. If you don't go to the song and dance troupe, where will the actors go? Don't forget to take care of your brothers after you climb the high branches. Hey, you don't have a meeting?"
"What kind of meeting are you having? Captain Wen said, my task today is to familiarize myself with the traffic conditions. I will go back to the office to stay for a while, take my time, and then go out for a drive."
Young people are not good at disguising their emotions. Envy, jealousy and hatred are almost dripping from their faces.
Tong Bin smiled and said, "Then you might as well go back to the dormitory directly. Going to the office will make everyone embarrassed. The meeting in the morning is not interesting. There is a meeting of the new unit at three o'clock in the afternoon. If you can't come, I will come over and talk to you in the evening. ”
Song Xuejia, "I will take notes during meetings and I will show them to you in the evening."
Wang Hui, "I probably won't have any specific work these days. Let's play poker together in the evening."
……
The original indifferent handsome guy and iceberg beauty are all gone.
Sun Tao became a hot commodity that everyone was fighting for.
Zhang Na, who usually pretends not to recognize him when other actresses are present, is now standing next to Sun Tao, giving the impression that the two are very familiar.
——
Tuesday, August 20, 2002, sunny, 22 to 31 degrees.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Sun Tao sneaked into Guangming Internet Cafe again.
With a 40-year-old mind, it would be bragging to say that he is unfazed by favors and humiliations, but he clearly sees this false status.
All expectations placed on others will eventually fail.
Any benefits obtained by relying on others will eventually be returned doubled.
What leaders value, what beauties favor, what colleagues envy, all are fake, only the mane in the pocket is real.
Those with money are the bosses. If you have money, you can be on an equal footing with the feudal officials. If you have money, you will have beauties. If you have money, everyone will envy you.
Even the rabbit was smiling in front of the camel, and everyone thought it was reasonable.
There is no shame in making money!
On Tuesday morning, the number of people in the Internet cafe was about the same as yesterday, and there were still empty seats on the second floor.
Song Dan and Jin Jing are not here.
Sun Tao chose a quiet corner and started coding seriously, including property market, stock market, Bitcoin, and World Cup. This was his confidence, but he couldn't be idle at ordinary times. The more early chips he had, the more fun it would be to turn over them.
Sun Tao didn't leave the Internet cafe at noon. He ordered a bowl of instant noodles at the bar, added a sausage and a braised egg. This thing actually cost six yuan. In the past, Sun Tao would have gone out to eat before coming back.
Eating instant noodles, drinking Coke, and clicking code words, although the review on the website has not yet passed, he can't stop here.
[Ding ding ding, ding ding ding] Nokia’s electronic ringtone rang again.
An unknown number.
It's now 11:50 p.m., and scam calls are not yet popular.
【Who are you looking for? 】
A clear female voice, neither urgent nor slow, very sweet and smooth, with the feeling of the big sister next door, [Is this Sun Tao? I am Tian Rui of the dance team. It was the leader Wen who asked me to contact you. I saw The car is parked in the parking lot, are you still nearby? 】
[Here, here. 】Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, a beauty who looked like Gong Xue, a pillar of the Workers' Cultural Palace, and the leader of the dance team.
