It is understood that as early as three o'clock P.M. on the 17th, Gong Qin had accepted the invitation sent by Liu runun in his personal name.
Microsoft offered a vivid "MBA" class for the employees of Liu run's department. "This is the only class invitation I have accepted, mainly because I spoke with Liu runun very speculatively and was touched by his sincerity ." Gong Qin said that he also liked Liu run. "We are friends now ."
Searching: a low-key brother repeatedly denies
In fact, it was not the first time for Gong Qin to be invited to give lectures. Some computer companies and container companies have invited him before, and some people have told him to change jobs, but all of them have been rejected by him, "I only want to be a happy driver. Happiness is the most important thing." When I think of the three years of mass leasing, I shed tears. "I did not admit it when I first found him ." Meng guoyi, manager of the Operation Branch of Volkswagen Xinya taxi company, where Qin is located, told reporters that he had been talking with Jack for two hours before he admitted that he was the one.
According to Meng guoyi, he received an instruction from the head office on the afternoon of the 20th, asking him to investigate the matter. "since I started my investigation based on my eight-year coaching experience at Johnson & Johnson, not found at all." On the morning of the 21st, a business director suddenly thought that he had received a call from Mr. Liu two days ago, located in Xujiahui. He hoped the company could provide the name and contact information of a license plate number driver, he said he wanted to contact the master in a private matter.
"At the time, I thought that Mr. Liu was looking for him ." As a result, he immediately checked the revenue of Qin, which was about 16 thousand yuan per month on average. after deducting various expenses, his monthly income was about 8000 yuan. Then, Meng guoyi called Yu Qin to verify that he did not expect that he would not admit it in any way.
Later, he called Master Yan back to the company. "We had a conversation for more than two hours. He spoke very well. He had insights on his mentality and ideas, I also admire myself."
Speech: Eight interruptions
At three o'clock P.M. on the 17th, a round-table meeting room of Microsoft on the 23rd floor of merceon, was originally scheduled for a small "Experience Exchange conference" for 20 people, with more than 50 Microsoft employees, even the floor guard stood at the door and listened carefully. How to maintain a happy attitude at work, how to restore a good mood as soon as possible, how to enjoy the fun of life, how to explore beautiful things, how to use the correct scientific methods to work ...... Yan Qin spoke for 45 minutes in one breath and was interrupted by the applause of Microsoft employees eight times.
"They are all itelites. Although they are very different from my work, they share the same principle of maintaining a happy attitude ." According to Qin, a female employee asked him how to make him happy when he was in a bad mood at work?
"I told her at the time that you could pour a cup of coffee and stand in the window of your office on the 23rd floor, then look down at Xujiahui and enjoy the following beautiful scenery. Then you want to think that the reason why you can enjoy such beautiful scenery is that Microsoft has given you such a working environment to stand up and see farther and enjoy more beautiful scenery ."

Morning Post reporter Yan xiaona
If I knew I wouldn't let him write it
Oriental Morning Post: This blog by Liu run has been circulating on the Internet for many days, but you have never stood up and don't want to be famous?
Qin: I only want to live a plain life and do not want to be famous. I just want to be an ordinary driver. My current life is very happy. In my future life, I hope to be the most cultural, conceptual, and Happy Chef in Shanghai. Once a person becomes famous or manages, the troubles and pressure will also increase.
Oriental Morning Post: many media outlets have looked for Liu run, who wants to learn more about you, such as your name and contact information, but all of them have been rejected by him.
Gong Qin: Yes, that's one of the reasons why I can become friends with him now. I think he is very attractive. He also asked me before, saying you want to be famous or not. Therefore, when I told them my work experience at Microsoft, Liu runun was not allowed to take photos of anyone involved in the communication, reveal my name, car number, and other information.
Oriental Morning Post: when you accept Liu runun's invitation to attend classes for Microsoft employees, the Internet has been surging, and some people suspect that Liu runun is writing a story. In fact, the company is already looking for you. In the past few days, have you ever thought of letting the company know about this?
Qin: I personally accept Liu run's personal invitation to go to Microsoft. I don't want to let the company know, nor do my colleagues around me know. The manager found me the day before yesterday and didn't want to admit it, but later he had. Today, the company called me for an interview and had to show up. If I knew that Liu runun would write this article online, I would not agree to it in any way.
Cherish the fate of 20 minutes with passengers
Oriental Morning Post: You have always said that you are a "Happy Chef". This is very different from the mentality of many drivers who encounter red lights and traffic jams. How do you maintain this happy attitude?
Qin: Learn to enjoy the beauty and happiness brought by work. When you encounter a red light, relax and put a grain of melon seeds or spiced beans in your mouth to see the beautiful outside. Sometimes it feels like you are driving a private car on the road. Some drivers like to complain about traffic congestion, rising oil prices, or poor working methods. You must think that the external environment cannot be changed. The best way is to change yourself. For example, I used to go home at three o'clock AM in the middle of the night. Since two o'clock AM, the entertainment venue has not been open for business, so some drivers complain that there is no business. Since this rule cannot be changed, I will go home before two o'clock and have a rest early.
Oriental Morning Post: Have you ever met any passengers who make you unhappy after driving a taxi for so many years?
Qin: of course there are, but it is usually difficult to make conflicts. Last year, a guest took my car for a total of 20 yuan. He said that he used to take a taxi for only 18 yuan. Well, I only paid 18 yuan.
You need to think about the relationship between you and your passengers as a "partner". If a passenger wants to go home and want to make money, you must always maintain a happy attitude in the process. You must think that there may be only 20 minutes of fate between you and your passengers in your life.
Although it will "pick customers" but never refuse to carry
Morning Post reporter: many passengers have questioned your "pick-up" theory, fearing that short-distance passengers may encounter difficulties in taxi hailing. What do you think of this problem?
Qin: 20 ~ I have done a lot in the 50 yuan business, but I don't do any business that starts from 10 yuan. For example, there are people in front of adjacent malls and business buildings asking for a taxi at the same time, or a neat white-collar person and a person wearing slippers asking for a taxi at the same time, however, you can only satisfy one of them. What will you do as a driver? Generally, you can make reasonable choices based on your work experience.
I have never refused to upload a ticket, nor have I received a complaint from a passenger. I have never received a traffic police ticket in the past two years.
How Wei xiaobao solves problems when reading novels
Morning Post reporter: After Liu run's article on the Internet, many netizens have discussed that your driver is too wronged.
Gong Qin: I don't think so. I want to be a very happy, thoughtful, and qualified driver, so I usually learn a lot more cultural knowledge. I always believe that a person's cultural accomplishment, quality, professional standards, and concepts are directly proportional to his or her income. Luck can only be "icing on the cake", rather than "giving away in the snow ".
I usually like to watch many books and TV programs such as fortune life. Of course, you should not just look at it, but also think about it. For example, if I read Jin Yong's "Deer Ding Ji", others may read it like a novel. I am not. I will study how Wei xiaobao solves the problems he has encountered, how he treats him with his thoughts, attitudes, and ideas, and how to face various people and difficulties.
I usually learn a lot, and the car repairer is also my master. When I went to the garage, I never went to the driver's lounge to watch TV or drink tea. Instead, I stood by and watched them repair the car and asked a lot of questions. Oriental Morning Post: Can happiness at work affect your family?
Qin: Yes. I like to work and enjoy my life. I like to cook food and keep my wife young and beautiful. When I drive outside, I will observe the girl's clothes on the road, and then imagine what kind of clothes my wife wear will conform to her noble and quiet temperament, and give her advice to bring her clothes.
