Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

He Yuzhu didn't know just how serious the overtime work situation was at the jujube factory.

But he knows now.

It's only been half a month.

They've already mastered 40% of that much code and technology.

He Yuzhu was completely stunned by this.

He Yuzhu resigned himself to his fate and returned to the company to attend a meeting.

His two assistants both had dark circles under their eyes, even bigger than the "Beijing Film Queen's" dark circles.

"Have you guys not had a rest for days?"

"Three days."

He left the company three days ago, attended two meetings, and then spent a day at the courtyard house.

Before he left, his two assistants had already worked overtime for two days.

He Yuzhu silently calculated that the two of them had worked overtime for five consecutive days.

They really don't treat people like human beings.

He Yuzhu was a little embarrassed: "Actually, you could take a break."

Qiao Lin said, "Mr. He, I'm fine. This is the agenda for the meeting later."

Knowing it was part of the company culture, He Yuzhu refused it himself, but he couldn't drag others down with him.

In a company with a culture of working overtime, you can't stay if you don't work overtime.

Moreover, overtime pay is high, which is better than companies that don't even pay for overtime.

He Yuzhu arrived at the conference room, where most of the people were already there. Then Zhang Qiang also arrived.

The head of the R&D team began to report on the progress of the research and development.

According to the plan provided by He Yuzhu, the R&D team is preparing to launch three mobile phones. The purpose of this meeting is to determine the selling points of each mobile phone.

They developed the plan based on the market.

After listening to the report, Zhang Qiang turned to He Yuzhu and asked for his opinion.

He Yuzhu thought about it carefully and felt that there were no major problems.

The plan is basically based on the one provided by He Yuzhu. However, He Yuzhu's plan is four or five years ahead of its time.

The plan needs to be fine-tuned based on the specific market conditions.

"High-end phones are mainly for business use, mid-range phones are mainly for fashion, and the camera function needs to be improved. Low-end phones are mainly for cost-effectiveness."

Our goal is not to sell phones, but to use phones to capture market share.

However, quality must be guaranteed; we can't ruin our reputation.

This was a request made by He Yuzhu.

Zhang Qiang echoed this sentiment, saying something similar. Of course, he also set targets for each department.

Mid-range phones must be launched by June next year to seize market share.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. It's certain that employees of Huawei's mobile phone business can forget about the Chinese New Year.

He Yuzhu also gave up his plan to go home.

After the meeting, He Yuzhu went to the R&D department to help them solve difficult problems.

Thanks to the spiritual spring water, he gained a photographic memory and mastered all those techniques.

He Yuzhu was able to provide solutions to all the problems they mentioned.

The entire company was working overtime, and Zhang Qiang was no exception. After finishing the meeting here, he had to take a plane to the Shenzhen headquarters.

After reporting my work over there, I'll fly back.

He Yuzhu was too embarrassed to ask for leave, so he stayed at the company. It wasn't until evening that he had time to inquire about the courtyard house.

For some reason, Mike stayed in Beijing for a while, and even Kim Je-cheon came to visit once.

Kim Je-cheon only stayed for one day before leaving.

He Yuzhu had to go to work and left Beijing before he could see him.

On the day before the Lunar New Year, He Yuzhu came to He Yuxian's place to celebrate the Lunar New Year with him.

"Brother, I don't think Mike will do anything. Why don't you just go home for the New Year?"

He Yuxian followed Mike for a while but found nothing unusual.

Mike is just like a normal person; he goes to work during the day and spends his evenings with his partner.

They rarely take action.

If it weren't for He Yuzhu assigning him the work, he would have suspected there was a mistake.

"I think it's better not to. The Lunar New Year is a time when everyone is less vigilant, and he might take action at that time."

He Yuzhu said, "Don't worry. Xu Damao is keeping an eye on things. I've prepared some things for my family; you can take them back to my parents when you go back."

Also, you haven't been back for so long, it's hard to explain to your sister-in-law."

When the topic of his future wife came up, He Yuxian wavered. The two were about to get married and couldn't bear to be apart for a long time.

"Alright then. Perfect timing, I'll pick someone up to go back with me."

"Who is it?" He Yuzhu asked curiously.

He Yuxian explained, "She's your sister-in-law's cousin. She studies in Beijing, and after her vacation, she found a job."

Knowing who it was, He Yuzhu didn't ask any more questions.

"Okay. When do you plan to go back?"

"The day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll bring the prepared things over the day after tomorrow."

He Yuzhu had some drinks with He Yuxian, and then they checked into the hotel.

On the day He Yuxian returned home, He Yuzhu brought three boxes of Lingquan wine and a box of beverages.

"This is medicinal wine that I had someone get for me; it costs three thousand yuan a bottle. Don't let my parents give it away casually."

The drink is for Yuwei; it can't be given away.

I brought the Lingquan wine home to nourish my parents.

Setting the price higher was also to prevent my father from showing off to others.

My dad has no other flaws, except that he loves to show off and cares a lot about his image.

If he doesn't mention a high price, he'll treat Lingquan wine like an ordinary thing and offer it to people.

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with it, it's just that Lingquan Wine needs to be kept a secret.

He had just asked Zhang Qiang to help sell some precious medicinal herbs, intending to use medicinal wine as a front.

He Yuxian had drunk the wine that He Yuzhu brought before, but he hadn't asked about the price then. This was the first time he had known that the wine was so expensive.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have drunk those drinks."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's alright. The price is expensive, but it's nothing to me right now."

I've also prepared a box for you. Take it back and let your grandfather try it."

He Yuxian had visited He Yuzhu's home and knew that He Yuzhu was truly not short of money, so she did not delay any further.

"Alright then. I've already told Uncle Xu about Mike's situation, and he'll be keeping an eye on things too."

I know you're busy, so don't worry about me. I'm turning around and driving away.

He Yuzhu slapped his forehead: "Don't drive your beat-up car anymore, take mine back."

"No need, this car is fine, it's not broken," He Yuxian refused.

Xu Damao helped him find this car, and he later simply bought it.

It's fine for normal driving, but I doubt it'll be suitable for highway driving.

“I have a few more cars here. You can drive them,” He Yuzhu insisted.

He Yuxian said, "I'm leaving. What will you do then? Didn't you say you had to go to a company meeting?"

“That’s easy. Aren’t you picking someone up? Let’s go pick her up first, and you can drop me off at the company on your way. We can get on the highway from there.”

He Yuzhu gave the car keys to He Yuxian, and the two drove together to pick up the person.

After picking him up, I took him to the company.

After He Yuxian left, He Yuzhu called home and told them that he couldn't come home.

His parents didn't say anything, they just told him to take care of himself and get some rest.

The younger sister snatched the phone: "Brother, are you really not coming back?"

"Yes, what's up?" He Yuzhu asked.

He Yuwei whispered, "You promised me you'd take me out for a day during the New Year."

I only have seven days off; I have to go back to school on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

He Yuzhu also remembered that after he graduated and found a job, he promised her that he would take her out for a day trip once he made some money.

"Are you trying to settle old scores with me?"

"No, I didn't," He Yuwei quickly denied.

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. It's not going to be possible to celebrate the New Year this year."

My cousin drove me back; I asked him to take you out for a day.

"After you finish your college entrance exam, come to Beijing, and I'll arrange a trip for you." (End of Chapter)
