Reborn in 1976, teach him how to be an official

"Xiaojun!"

Ai Xiaoyu refused and said something angrily.

"What's wrong? Aren't you guys dating?"

Xie Xiaojun was laughing and didn't care.

"Sister Xiaojun, you don't know, but just now in the English corner, Liu Hongyi was amazing. That Wang Haodong, hehe, he couldn't answer a word in the end... Liu Hongyi not only speaks English, he also speaks many other languages..."

Tan Qiumei chattered aside, with her nose raised high, as if she was proud of it.

Liu Hongyi is the pride of their Chuzhou.

"Really? So impressive? Someone in Wang Haodong's family works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs..."

Liu Hongyi suddenly realized. No wonder Wang Haodong was so good at foreign languages. He didn't know how he got into Beijing Normal University. Shouldn't he have gone to the School of Foreign Languages?

But this is someone else's private matter, and Liu Hongyi will not ask about it.

Soon, the food was served.

Except for Xie Xiaojun who had been to Lao Mo once before, the other girls were eating Western food for the first time. They were surprised and nervous. They were not very good at using knives and forks and made a lot of mistakes.

Fortunately, we are all classmates, so it doesn’t matter.

While eating, Liu Hongyi kept examining the chairs and the dining table, even standing up to weigh the chairs. They were both made of solid wood and felt incredibly heavy.

"What are you doing?"

Xie Xiaojun asked curiously.

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "I'm just curious... This chair is sturdy and nice-looking, but it's too heavy. I think it's expensive."

"Of course, Lao Mo's things are all the best."

Xie Xiaojun answered, then became confused again.

"Hey, Liu Hongyi, why do you care about this?"

In later times, such a topic of conversation wouldn't have aroused anyone's suspicion, as young people often chatted about anything. But in this era, a top student at Qinghua University was actually concerned about the price of restaurant chairs?

"Nothing, just curious..."

"By the way, Xie Xiaojun, you're from Beidu. Are you familiar with the furniture factory?"

Liu Hongyi is already considering the design of Japanese minimalist sofas and other furniture.

He is not an expert in this area.

But he had seen the real thing.

With his scientific mind, combined with the furniture factory's designers, he should have been able to reverse engineer the design. Its core focus is practicality, simplicity, clarity, and aesthetics. It can also be combined in a variety of ways to suit a wide range of home environments.

Traditional furniture pursues strength and durability, which is not a key consideration.

If you focus on foreign trade, you must consider the needs of foreign customers as much as possible.

Western families, who generally earn higher wages, may not place particular emphasis on furniture that will last for decades. Instead, they prioritize simplicity, practicality, and adaptability. Once prices reach a certain level, replacing a new set of furniture every few years doesn't pose a significant financial burden.

This is the design concept of Japanese minimalist furniture in later generations.

Liu Hongyi likes this style very much.

Xie Xiaojun was stunned for a moment, and after thinking carefully, he said, "I don't know about this. Let me ask my family. No, why are you asking this?"

You are a college student and you live in the school dormitory.

Do you want to buy a set of furniture for your school dormitory?

Not to mention whether it is necessary, even if you buy it, the dormitory manager will not agree to let you put it in.

"Don't worry about this, just help me find out."

For the sake of Lao Mo, Xie Xiaojun readily agreed to his request.

Although Quanxu also agreed to contact the timber mill and furniture factory, Liu Hongyi didn't mind building another connection.

As a veteran official, Liu Hongyi knew that relying on only one approach to solve a problem was sometimes unreliable. He had to be prepared for everything.

After returning to school, Liu Hongyi went to find Zhao Yuanfang.

"Teacher, I need an identity."
