Puzzled.
Curious.
Odd.
His colleagues' gazes came from all directions. They were all staring at Zhang Ye. Some of them were even pointing and discussing. Only a small number of people did not pay much attention and continued working with their heads lowered.
If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely not be able to withstand so many complicated gazes. Even if they did not look at them, they would at least feel uncomfortable all over. Who could stand being stared at like a panda and whispered to each other? However, Zhang Ye was not an ordinary person. This fellow did not feel any pressure at all. Thinking back to the time at Daming Lake … Oh, no, not this time. Thinking back to the time at the radio station, he was shunned by countless colleagues like a jinx. Thinking back to the time at the television station, he was stared at like a god of death by many of his peers. He was used to it.
Besides, this time was different from the past.
In the past, he and his peers were notorious.
But this time, he was an anti-hijacking hero. He had saved more than a hundred people. What was there for him to feel uncomfortable about? If you want to watch, then watch.
After putting away his things, Zhang Ye switched on the company's computer and began familiarizing himself with the environment.
There were two people who wanted to come over to chat with Zhang Ye, but just as they stood up, they hesitated and sat down again.
The first person who came over to interact with Zhang Ye was not someone from his department, but a staff member from the Human Resources Department. Zhang Ye had never seen this person before. He was not the youth who had received him at the lobby, but a man in his late twenties. He was holding some forms in his hands.
"Who is Zhang Ye?" The man asked.
The woman in front pointed to the back and carried on with her work.
Zhang Ye also heard it, "I am."
The man walked up and took out a form, "Fill this in. Things like your cell phone number and address have to be stored in the database so that it's easy to contact you. As for the paperwork and insurance, it's a little troublesome. You'll have to do it next week."
"Alright." Zhang Ye took out a pen and began writing.
The man did not leave. He chuckled as he went to chat with a few people not far away, "Ah Qian, Little Yu, did you bully the beauty who came yesterday?"
Little Yu said, "Why would we?"
Ah Qian smiled, "We can't wait to flatter her."
The man laughed, "Both of you are not married yet. You can chase her."
Ah Qian rolled his eyes and said, "Come on, she's so pretty. She's not worthy."
The man chuckled, "If you didn't woo her, she might have been taken advantage of by other colleagues. I have the entire company's personnel files. I can tell you with certainty that our entire company doesn't have such a beautiful lady. For the WebTV department to have such a beautiful lady, you are really lucky. She's not like our HR department's female colleagues. They keep a straight face every day. Hai, let's not talk about it."
Zhang Ye put down his pen and looked up, "Bro, I'm done."
"Alright, let me see." The man walked back and glanced at his cousin. He frowned and said, "Everything has to be filled out. Why is your English name blank?"
Zhang Ye said, "I don't have an English name."
"You have to write it even if you don't have it," the man said.
Zhang Ye looked at him. "How do I write it if I don't have it?"
The man smacked his lips and said, "Can't you just pick a random one? Peter, David. "
Zhang Ye was still very calm. "Forget it. I really don't know how to come up with such a name. It's not any important information either. Just fill in the rest."
The man was a little annoyed. "How is it not important? According to the company's rules, everyone has to write it. "
Most foreign companies had such rules, but this wasn't a foreign company, right? He even had to come up with an English name?
Zhang Ye thought for a moment and took the form. He wrote on the column — ZHANGYE.
The man stopped him. "What are you doing? Hanyu Pinyin is not English. You can just pick a random one. Isn't everyone the same? If you can't think of one, I'll think of one for you. "
The commotion here attracted the attention of many people.
Zhang Ye finally could not take it anymore. He slammed the form on the table and shouted, "I said I don't have an English name! Can't you hear me? If you want to worship foreign things, go ahead! Don't drag me down! I'm a good Chinese man! I'll give you a grandpa's English name! Am I crazy!? And you want to give me a name? Who the f * * k are you!? I only have one name! It was given to me by my parents! "
The man was dumbfounded!
Everyone in the office was also dumbfounded!
"You're scolding me?" The man's face turned green!
Zhang Ye looked at him and said, "I'm ignoring you, but you're not done yet! This is the first time I've heard of someone forcing someone to change their name! I don't have an English name! What can you do about it? "
"You … You …" The man pointed at him while trembling.
As a native of Beijing, Zhang Ye had inherited a part of the fine traditions of the Beijing people in a city that had suffered the flames of war between the eight countries — nationalistic youth. Actually, he was not an irrational nationalistic youth. Towards foreign cultures and certain ideologies, Zhang Ye could still accept them. He also watched American dramas, watched cartoons, and liked to eat steak and pizza. However, Zhang Ye was never proud of these things!
Giving a foreign name?
This had already crossed Zhang Ye's bottom line!
As a newcomer, a newcomer who had not even been in the company for an hour, Zhang Ye naturally did not want to have a conflict with his colleagues. Although they were not from the same department, it would not be good for him. Hence, he was very calm at the beginning. He patiently explained the matter to that person. It was indeed impossible for him to give a foreign name that was neither feminine nor masculine, but the other party did not listen to him no matter what he said. He even flared up at Zhang Ye, so how could Zhang Ye tolerate it? F * * k you!
Wang Xiong came out of the office. Clearly, he had heard the commotion, "What happened?"
The HR man finally found the person. He said angrily, "Director Wang, that newcomer, Zhang Ye, did not write his English name. I made him write it, but he said it was a company rule. He even scolded me!"
Wang Xiong said in a speechless manner, "That's all?"
The man said angrily, "He actually scolded me!"
Zhang Ye glanced at him, "I said I don't have an English name, but you still want to give me a name. Who do you think you are!? Is it up to you to give me a name? I'm scolding you! "
Wang Xiong's face turned serious, "Little Zhang! What are you doing!? "
The man pointed over, "Director Wang, take a look. Take a look!"
Take a look? What am I looking at!? You're still trying to tell me what to do? Wang Xiong knew this person and knew that he did not know how to speak. Indeed, the company had a rule to write an English name, but it was just a passing remark. If he did not want to write it, then so be it. Besides, he glanced at the form that had fallen to the ground. Wasn't it written 'Zhangye'? It was also written in English. It was more or less the same. Was there a need to be so serious? You still want to give me a name? Of course I have to scold you. How bad are you at speaking? Is it up to you to give me a name?
Wang Xiong waved his hand, "Alright, I got it. Isn't the form already filled out? There's nothing left. Just file it in. If there's anything, we can discuss it. What's with all this shouting!? "
"But he …" The man was indignant. He could not swallow his pride.
Wang Xiong's voice sank, "This is a work area! What are you doing!? "
The man knew that Deputy Director Wang was trying to protect him. He could not do anything but hold back his anger. He could only leave with Zhang Ye's form.
The moment he left, Wang Xiong said to Zhang Ye, "Little Zhang, this is a company. It's normal for colleagues to have differences in work. You can't scold people."
Zhang Ye's attitude was also very good, "Sorry, Director Wang. I'll take note next time."
Wang Xiong didn't blame him for anything. He gave an 'en' sound and went back.
The matter had calmed down, but the people in the office had no intention of calming down!
Holy sh * t!
You really scolded them?
What kind of temper do you have?
No one in the WebTV department had expected that under such circumstances, a newcomer like Zhang Ye would dare to point at a HR comrade and scold him! Anyone with a bit of experience in the workplace would not have done such a thing, but Zhang Ye had scolded him. And after the incident, he still calmly continued playing on the computer. That was called calm, that was called calm. He did not even think of it as a big deal! Everyone could tell with a glance that this was definitely not the first time Zhang Ye had done such a thing! If not, he would definitely not be so relaxed!
F * * k!
What kind of colleague did they have!?
Previously, everyone was feeling disappointed. They thought that such an ordinary young man could be so capable? How could he be as awesome as what was boasted about on television and on the internet? But now, they finally understood. This was a f * * king wolf in sheep's clothing. He was definitely not someone easy to get along with!
Suddenly, a pleasant female voice squeezed in.
"What's the situation? I heard scolding just now? Did something happen? " A sexy woman walked into the office with documents in her arms. Be it her face or figure, they were all stunning!
"Teacher Dong, you're back?"
"Hai. Just now, someone from HR asked our new colleague to write his name in English. In the end, they started scolding him. Even Director Wang was alarmed."
A few people explained to her in a very warm manner.
The woman blinked, "You can even scold him like this?"
Zhang Ye, who was working on the computer with his head lowered, suddenly found the voice familiar. It was too familiar. Hence, he looked up and was stunned, "Dong Shanshan?"
The woman was also stunned. She looked at him and said, "Zhang Ye?"
Zhang Ye was amused, "Hey, why are you here?"
Dong Shanshan also laughed, "I was about to ask. Why are you … I know. So you came to Shanghai to work at Weiwo company?"
Zhang Ye exclaimed, "You're also here to be a web host?"
Your sister. Aren't you here to film a movie? Aren't you here to film a TV series? Your mouth is too unreliable!
However, many things had been made clear at this moment. It was clearly not a coincidence that the two of them had met on the plane. Weiwo company had not only invited Zhang Ye, they had also invited Dong Shanshan. Dong Shanshan had probably been invited before him. If not, the plane tickets would not have been booked in such a hurry. Zhang Ye would have taken the plane the next day. Clearly, Weiwo company had booked the plane tickets for both of them to save trouble. This was how they had met on the plane.
Everyone was dumbfounded seeing this. The two of them knew each other?
Dong Shanshan smiled, "You were the one who scolded him just now, right?"
Zhang Ye acknowledged, "He forced me to come up with an English name. It's already good that I didn't beat him up."
Thinking of something, Dong Shanshan was overjoyed, "Hur Hur Hur, you are still the same as you were in university. You're still so nationalistic. Although it's been three or four years, I still remember an English class in my first year. The teacher asked everyone in the class to come up with an English name, so that they would call us that in the future. Everyone came up with one, but in the end, you argued with the English teacher about 'why a Chinese person should have an English name' for half the class. In the end, the English teacher was so angry that he slammed his desk and dismissed the class! Hahaha, why are you still the same? "
Zhang Ye said matter-of-factly, "It's a matter of principle. I can't take a step back."
The conversation between the two made them realize that Zhang Ye and the beautiful Dong were university classmates. They had both graduated from Media College with a broadcasting major!
