Siheyuan: Started from a blind date and being cut off

"Master Li, you have to teach me. What you just said is so right. My situation is exactly the same as what you said.

The job of a movie projectionist is quite lucrative. I bring two more movie tapes with me when I go to the countryside so that the fellow villagers can watch them beautifully. They can give me some souvenirs.

However, if you can get a good salary by sitting in an office, who would want to carry equipment weighing dozens or hundreds of pounds and go to the countryside to play movies in the wind and sun?

To be honest, at the end of last year I invited the section chief and deputy section chief to dinner and gave me generous gifts, asking them to adjust my work.

I promised well at the time, but it's been almost a year and there has been no response.

Later, I was afraid that they would forget and hint about it, so they kept playing tricks on me and making me wait.

It’s been almost a year since I’ve been waiting. Some time ago, there was a vacancy in Corey’s promotion, but they still didn’t think of me.”

As soon as he talked about this, Xu Damao started to vomit his bitterness and became extremely depressed.

There are no shortage of gifts, no shortage of flattery, and five years of working experience. Why is it so difficult to change to a more relaxed position?

I don't even dare to think about getting promoted, it's just a luxury.

"Want to get rid of your job as a projectionist and move up the career ladder? Then just stay in the hospital."

Li Ye said calmly.

Xu Damao was confused: "My dear father, can you stop being so pretentious? I don't study as much as you do, and my brain is not as flexible as yours. What you said is so vague, I really can't figure it out."

"Let me ask you, how many years has your father been working as a movie projectionist?"

"It must have been more than ten years. Anyway, after the steel rolling mill was converted into a state-owned enterprise, my dad continued to work as a projectionist until I took over his job."

"Then do you think your ability to deal with people and your eloquence in speaking well of leaders are comparable to your father?"

Needless to say, it’s definitely not comparable!

Xu Damao's flattering skills were all taught by his father's example and words.

He is just a twenty-three-year-old boy, and he often seems a bit immature when dealing with things, and he is definitely not as good as his dad.

As for the skill of eloquence, Xu Damao was not born with it, it was developed after working as a projectionist.

None of the movie projectionists these days are eloquent.

Because movie projectionists need to be good at eloquence, they can explain the core ideas and correct values ​​expressed in the movie to the audience by playing the movie.

Therefore, it can be said that Xu Damao is far inferior to his father in terms of his tact and eloquence.

After all, he is too young and can only be regarded as a youthful and weakened version of his father.

"How can I compare to my dad? The last time you came to my house for dinner, you saw that the Yiyongquan old wine was given to me by the boss when my dad went to the boss's house to show a movie.

I don’t have that ability. I can deal with fellow villagers, but I can’t please the leaders.”

Xu Damao shook his head, knowing that he knew a lot about himself.

"Isn't that the end, here's the problem. Think about it, your dad is more capable than you. He has been working for so many years and still can't get promoted. You are the only one who can get promoted."

Li Ye said with a smile.

Xu Damao had an enlightenment, and it turned out that the crux of the problem appeared here.

He is quite smart and reacts very quickly. He immediately responded: "You mean, my dad and I's inability to get promoted is not a matter of ability, nor is it a matter of managing relationships and giving gifts to leaders, but of this

Work problem?"

Li Ye gave Xu Damao a teachable look: "Yes, that's where the problem lies. The job of a movie projectionist is very popular for people who are looking for stability. Going to the countryside is a bit harder, but the advantage is that there is plenty of oil and water.

There are many benefits to small things.

But for someone who is ambitious and wants to climb up the ladder, this job can actually become an obstacle to progress.

Do you know why? You just said the reason. You are the only projectionist in a radius of ten kilometers. Without you, no one would be able to watch the movie.

Can the section chief and deputy section chief of your department help you change positions? If you are transferred, who will you look for to show movies in the future?

Not only is it troublesome to apply to transfer a projectionist from other places, but you might also owe a favor to the leaders of other regions.

In addition, your relationship is not strong enough. There is no need for the section chief to do so much work for no reason just to help you, a small person, change positions. Do you understand?"

"Master Li, you are so thorough!"

After listening to Li Ye's analysis, Xu Damao's shout was sincere.

This analysis is so awesome and thorough.

He put himself in his shoes and put himself in the position of the section chief. He would not do so much work in vain just to help a projectionist change positions. It was not worth the trouble, so it was better to maintain the status quo.

"Then you asked me to lie still in the hospital. What do you want me to do?"

Xu Damao asked again quickly.

"You were injured, seriously injured, isn't that a good reason?

The next time your deputy section chief comes to the hospital to urge you, you continue to insist that you are seriously injured, saying that you will not be able to work in a short time, and then give your deputy section chief some money.

It is difficult to hire a formal projectionist. It is not difficult to ask him to hire a projectionist from another place to take over for a while.

Once the screening apprentice is in place, you can be discharged from the hospital. In the future, if you take that apprentice and bring him to train, won't there be a replacement?

At that time, if you manage your relationship a little bit, it will be easy to change positions.

Moreover, you also accepted an apprentice and helped him become an official projectionist. Do you think he could not be grateful to you?

In the future, if you really want to take a step further, the projectionist you trained will become your helper again. Can you tell me whether it will serve multiple purposes with one stone?"

Xu Damao performed well, and Li Ye did not hesitate to give him some pointers.

This person has a little cleverness, but not a big one.

It can be seen from the fact that he snitched in front of the leader's wife and was kicked out, and that he did not understand why he could not change positions, that his vision is very limited.

Li Ye was certain that a person like Xu Damao would not be able to reach a high position due to his own talent.

So Li Ye doesn't need to worry that Xu Damao will bite him back when he gets up. As long as he behaves better than Xu Damao, Xu Damao will not rebel.

Believe it or not, Xu Damao's ability alone really helped him turn the projectionist apprentice into a projectionist. He couldn't handle the matter of switching to a more relaxed position on his own, and he would have to ask Li Ye for it.

Xu Damao was filled with admiration after listening to Li Ye's advice.

As expected of Mr. Li, he is really awesome. He sees things much further and more thoroughly than him. Even if he is flattering, he cannot even catch up to half of what Li Ye does.

etc!

Xu Damao recalled that Li Ye also came up with the idea of ​​letting him stay in the hospital for ten days and a half.

Could it be... Could it be that Li Ye had figured out from the beginning that he wanted to change positions, and deliberately asked him to come to the hospital to lie down after he was beaten by He Yuzhu, and then gave him instructions to change the status quo step by step.

Awesome! Xu Damao has been listening to The Romance of the Three Kingdoms recently and knows that many of the great people in the Three Kingdoms are good at making clever calculations. Maybe Li Ye also knows this.

Thinking of this, Xu Damao's admiration for Li Ye increased even more.
