Chapter 512 Shen Qing prepares for a business trip
The next day, Shen Qing just arrived at the company.
Then she received a notice from her leader asking her to come over.
She went to her leader's office with doubts.
She straightened her professional suit, took a deep breath, and walked towards the leader's office with a confident smile.
Pushing open the door, the leader was sitting behind a large desk. When he saw Shen Qing come in, a rare smile appeared on his face and he motioned for her to sit down.
"Shen Qing, I called you here this time because I have an important task for you." The leader's eyes were full of trust and expectation.
Shen Qing leaned forward slightly, listening intently. "Our company is about to embark on a major project in another country, requiring in-depth business negotiations with multiple international partners. This process involves a significant amount of specialized and complex translation work. Not only does it require accurate communication of both parties' intentions, but it also requires familiarity with the specialized terminology in various fields to safeguard the company's image and interests." The leader spoke, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.
"After multiple internal evaluations, we unanimously agree that you are the most suitable candidate for this assignment. Your professional abilities are evident to all, and you have performed exceptionally well in both simultaneous and consecutive interpretation. Furthermore, you are familiar with the cultures and business etiquette of different countries. In your past work, you have repeatedly resolved potential cultural conflicts with your excellent communication skills, making significant contributions to the company's collaborative projects."
Shen Qing felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She was touched and proud by the high evaluation from her leader. However, she also knew the difficulty of this mission. Going on a business trip abroad would mean facing a completely new environment and a more complex work situation.
"Leader, thank you and the company for your trust in me. I am fully aware that this mission is a heavy responsibility. I will do my best and live up to the company's expectations." Shen Qing said firmly.
The leader nodded and continued, "Time is very tight. You'll be leaving next week. The administration department will compile the relevant information and itinerary and send it to you as soon as possible. During your trip, the company will fully support your work and will communicate promptly with any issues. We are confident that with your ability and experience, you will successfully complete this mission and take a solid step towards the company's international development."
Shen Qing walked out of the office with a brisk and powerful pace. She gazed out the window at the bustling city scene, her heart filled with longing and determination for the challenges ahead.
She lowered her eyes again. She had just gotten married and hadn't had time to develop a good relationship with Liu Ye, but she had to go on a business trip. However, she believed that Liu Ye would definitely support her.
She took out her cell phone and called Liu Ye, intending to tell him that she was going on a business trip the next day.
Liu Ye's concerned voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Qingqing, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Shen Qing's mouth corners unconsciously raised, and she responded gently: "Liu Ye, I want to tell you something."
"Just tell me what's going on!" Liu Ye on the phone also eagerly wanted to know what Shen Qing wanted to say.
Shen Qing said slowly, "My boss asked me to go on a business trip abroad today."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and Liu Ye sounded a little disappointed: "So sudden, how long will you be gone?"
Shen Qing sighed softly. "It'll probably take about two weeks. It's a very important translation assignment for an international conference. My boss said I'm experienced and have strong foreign language skills, so this assignment is best for me."
Liu Ye forced himself to cheer up on the other end of the phone: "I understand. This is your job and your career. Don't worry, I will help you take good care of the children."
Shen Qing's eyes were slightly red. She could feel Liu Ye's reluctance to leave, but she also knew that she couldn't let her leader down. "Thank you, Liu Ye."
"We are family now, so don't be so polite. I'll wait for you to come back," said Liu Ye.
"Ok."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qing felt a mixture of emotions. On the one hand, as an international translator, she longed to excel in her field, and this business trip was crucial to her career development. On the other hand, as a newlywed, she felt a little sorry for Liu Ye by going on a business trip so soon after their wedding. However, she understood that love and career were not mutually exclusive, and with mutual understanding and support, a brief separation would only make them cherish their time together even more.
Shen Qing took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and strode forward. She knew that in the days ahead, she would face longing and challenges.
She will definitely do it!
After returning to her workplace, Shen Qing quickly got down to work.
. . . . . .
Went home in the evening.
She also wanted to tell her parents about her upcoming business trip. She felt even more sorry for them because they had just arrived abroad and she hadn't had time to spend with them before she had to go on a business trip.
Walking into the living room, Shen Qing saw her parents sitting on the sofa watching TV. When her mother saw her return, a concerned smile immediately appeared on her face. She asked, "Qingqing, are you tired from work today?" Shen Qing forced a smile and said, "Mom, I'm fine."
Shen Qing hesitated beside her parents before deciding to tell them about her business trip. "Dad, Mom, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow," Shen Qing said, trying to sound casual. Her parents' gaze immediately shifted from the TV screen to her, their eyes filled with worry.
"Why do you suddenly want to go on a business trip? Where are you going?" Wang Yaju said.
Shen Qing patiently explained, "Mom, it's an urgent work assignment. I have to go to another country to attend an important international conference. It will take about two weeks."
Shen Wenqiang said, "Work is important, just don't get too tired."
"Dad, Mom, I'm fine, but I can't stay with you. You came here from so far away." Shen Qing said.
"It's okay. Just focus on your work. We will go back in two days. We are worried about our family." Wang Yaju said.
"Okay then! I'll come back to see you guys when I have time."
"Uh-huh!"
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'm going back to my room to pack my things. I have a flight tomorrow morning."
"Okay, let's go!"
Shen Qing got up and went back to her room.
Shen Qing walked to the wardrobe and gently opened the door. Several carefully selected business suits were neatly hung on the hangers. Her fingers slid through the clothes, thinking about the arrangements for this trip and the occasions she might encounter.
In the end, she picked out several outfits with different styles but all showing professional temperament.
After neatly placing her chosen clothes into her suitcase, Shen Qing went to her desk. She opened her computer bag and pulled out the laptop she'd used on so many translation assignments. She carefully checked the battery level and updated several frequently used translation software programs to ensure she wouldn't encounter any technical issues during her business trip.
Next, she began to organize her translation tools: exquisite translation headphones, compact recording equipment, and thick professional dictionaries—these were her "secret weapons."
Then, Shen Qing took out an exquisite cosmetic bag from the drawer. As a translator, not only must her language be accurate, but her appearance must also be presentable at all times.
