The next day, Lu Chengyu returned to the company to work. Seeing Yan Mu’s attitude towards him was the same as usual, he understood that Yan Mu was just like that, so he still kept a normal mind when he was working, but he put a lot of effort into the plan he made for Huading.

Cao Jingshen knew that Lu Chengyu was a capable person, but he didn’t expect that he would make such a wonderful plan. He flipped through the things in his hands, and pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose with excitement, and asked: “How long have you been working on this plan?”

“Before entering Huading, I had this idea. The development of Huading is very rapid. Now there are many local media reporting on air quality and water pollution. Maybe soon, everyone will pay more and more attention to this issue. At that time, our Huading will be at the forefront and become the leader among similar products.” Lu Chengyu smiled. In his previous life, he was young and didn’t know the depth of social waters. So, when he went to Liang’s for interview, he boldly proposed this idea. Later, his interview was unsuccessful, but someone in Liang’s borrowed this idea to make a plan, which made Liang’s make a lot of money. Now, he had been honed in life, so he could make this idea into a plan, and it was much more detailed and closer to life than Liang’s method.

Next year, the country would vigorously promote the concept of PM2.5, and serious smog weather would often appear in the following years. Then many people who had no knowledge of this aspect would be shocked to realize that the environment they lived in had become so bad, and then they would have worries about their health problems.

If there was demand, there would be a market, and as long as you occupied a large share of this market, you would win.

Cao Jingshen closed the plan. “Such products have already appeared in China, but the market is very sluggish, so many such companies have turned to invest in other industries.”

“We must thus seize this opportunity. Our Huading is famous. As long as we develop high-quality and useful products, we will usher in the spring of this market.” Lu Chengyu’s tone was calm. He was not like a young man trying to prove his achievements, but it made people feel that what he said made sense. “In the past one or two years, the media has frequently mentioned environmental issues. I think this is a signal.” He was willing to take out this plan now because he wanted to become a senior executive of Huading, and also because after observing for this period of time, he believed in the character of Cao Jingshen and Yan Mu.

One failure made one wiser. This was an old saying, but it was also the wisdom of the ancients.

Cao Jingshen was valued by Yan Mu because he had vision and was bold and careful, which was why he was so excited when he saw this plan. After listening to Lu Chengyu’s words, he found that although Lu Chengyu was only a fresh graduate in his early twenties, he had good observation skills, was calm and had vision. If such a person could not shine in the future, it could only be God’s fault.

“I will give this plan to the boss,” Cao Jingshen said, and looked at Lu Chengyu. He found that he looked very calm, and his posture was still gentle and good-looking. He could not see any expectation or worry. Seeing this, he could not help but sigh. No wonder there were more and more female employees coming to the secretariat recently. Beauty was really misleading.

Cao Jingshen had said so much, and Lu Chengyu would not continue to pester without any sense. Whether this plan could be valued by Yan Mu depended on whether it was useful, so nothing could be gained by explaining and pestering again and again.

There was a taboo in the workplace, that was, pestering without any sense. In idol dramas, the plot where the heroine explained again and again and then moved the big boss was the golden finger given by the screenwriter to the heroine. In reality, the biggest possibility was that she would be fired.

Of course, there may be accidents that were very touching and cause them to be reused, but the reason why accidents were called accidents was that their probability was too small, and ordinary people didn’t have the fate to encounter them. His experience in his previous life told him that accidents related to him had nothing to do with good things.

So, that afternoon, when Lu Chengyu took advantage of his working hours to browse Weibo, he found a hot topic called “High-definition photos of Q University’s school idol”. After clicking on this topic, the expression on his face froze.

Wasn’t the person wearing a bachelor’s gown, holding a graduation certificate, and sitting against a tree trunk himself? He looked at the nine photos on this Weibo, some of him giving a speech on the stage, some of him receiving a graduation certificate, and some of him smiling at others on the grass.

Then he quietly logged into his Weibo account called “Niannian Youyu”. Sure enough, the number of fans had soared by tens of thousands, and the comments were also very lively. Some people even said something like “Xueba is so cute”.

The hand holding the mouse paused, and then he quickly sent a Weibo with a malicious smile on his face.

“Niannian Youyu: Have you finished your homework? Have you passed the exam? You haven’t finished these, why are you browsing Weibo.”

Soon he saw a wailing voice under the comments of this Weibo.

Duoduo replied to Niannian Youyu: I feel the malice from the academic bullies in this world.

Tingting replied to Niannian Youyu: Thinking about the advanced mathematics I failed this semester, I suddenly felt a little pain in my knees. There is a lot of malice in this world.

Lu Chengyu closed Weibo with a smile and felt that his mood seemed to have improved by several percentage points.

For him, even if he was popular on Weibo for a while, it didn’t matter, it didn’t have much impact, after all people were forgetful, when something new appeared, the previous things would be quickly forgotten by everyone. Because for many people, the Internet was their own mask, they just wanted simple relaxation and happiness, and didn’t want to face many complicated things like reality, so they simply appreciated the jokes, beauties, handsome guys, celebrity gossip on the Internet, and then cheered up to continue to face things in reality.

Therefore, he didn’t think this matter would have much impact on him, anyway, in a few days, these people would divert their attention.

“Xiao Lu, what are you busy with?” Tang Xuan walked to Lu Chengyu and gave him a bag of snacks, “Your probation period is about to end, did Senior Cao say how he is going to arrange you?”

“Thank you.” After unpacking the snacks, Lu Chengyu put a piece in his mouth, and then put it aside. The kindness of a beautiful woman should be repaid, which was etiquette. However, the behavior of men loving snacks was not conducive to his image, and it was enough to taste one piece. However, this snack tasted good, he could buy some after work and keep it at home.

“I don’t know yet, no one has told me,” Lu Chengyu said while wiping his hands, “The boss didn’t tell me about this either, but if I’m assigned to the branch office, I won’t be able to see you, this beautiful lady, Sister Xuan.”

“Branch office?” Tang Xuan smiled, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be able to see you, this handsome guy, often in the future.” Although the higher-ups didn’t say anything, she had heard from Manager Luo about Lu Chengyu’s personnel arrangements, saying that the person at the top really valued Lu Chengyu’s ability as a young intern, and would definitely keep him in the head office.

Lu Chengyu then understood Tang Xuan’s intentions. This person was here to sell him a good deal, saying she would see him every day in the future. The relationship between colleagues would also affect the quality and progress of work.

“If I can stay in the head office after the probation period, I’ll treat everyone to a meal to celebrate,” Lu Chengyu said with a smile, “If I’m assigned, Sister Xuan, you can treat us to a meal.”

Several other people in the same department immediately followed the trend. Anyway, no matter what the result was, they would get a meal for free.

Suddenly, the people who were making a fuss quieted down at the same time. Lu Chengyu turned around in confusion and saw Cao Jingshen and Boss Yan standing in the corridor. Boss Yan had his signature expressionless face. From his expression, it was really unknown whether he had heard what he had just said.

Tang Xuan turned around silently and returned to her seat. Why would the boss come here at this time?

“Lu Chengyu, come to my office.” Cao Jingshen nodded to Lu Chengyu and did not blame others for slacking off at work. He and Boss Yan went straight into his office.

Lu Chengyu walked into the office among the sympathetic eyes of his colleagues and saw Yan Mu holding the plan he made in his hand.

“Your idea is very good. I have decided to let Huading enter this industry,” Yan Mu said, “This plan is very detailed. It’s no problem to follow it directly.” He paused and continued to ask, “Do you know how much this plan is worth?” He was different from Cao Jingshen. He was not only a businessman, but also a member of the political circle in Beijing, so he knew about the policies of the people above earlier than ordinary people. In recent years, the higher-ups had begun to pay attention to the issue of air quality, and they would soon raise this issue as a top priority, so there would definitely be a broad market for products in this area.

He knew the news from above, so he understood the value of this plan, but Lu Chengyu’s observation ability was amazing.

Therefore, it was natural for a boss to value such talents more.

He took out a contract and put it on the table, “If you have no objection, just sign it.”

After Lu Chengyu took the contract and read it, he looked at Yan Mu with some surprise. He thought Yan Mu would give him a large bonus for this plan, but he didn’t expect that the other party would promise to give him 2% of the profit as long as he introduced related products in the future. 2% didn’t sound like much, but Lu Chengyu knew in his heart that as long as Huading occupied the market, it would definitely make a lot of money in the future. That 2% profit was a huge profit, which had far exceeded Lu Chengyu’s imagination.

As a boss, was it really okay to be so generous?

It didn’t conform to the style of capitalists exploiting the working class at all, okay?

“I want to keep you,” Yan Mu looked at Lu Chengyu, “You are very talented, which is worth much more than the 2% profit for Huading.”

“Since the boss is so straightforward, how can I be fussy?” Lu Chengyu took the pen and signed his name. “As the saying goes, there are many good horses but few good Bo Le. The boss trusts me so much, I will try my best not to let you down.”

Yan Mu looked at the three big characters on the contract and said seriously, “I believe you, you won’t let me down.”

Lu Chengyu smiled and said nothing.

Cao Jingshen sat aside and pushed his glasses silently several times. He always felt that something was wrong. Was it his illusion?
