Chapter 293: A little bit, but not much
Early the next morning, Chen Chen arrived at the company half an hour early due to his schedule.
What he didn't expect was that Cao Zihua went to work early for the first time and was drinking soy milk in the reception room.
Judging from the dark circles on his face, this guy must have been up all night. He probably had a fierce battle with Wei Xiu and the others in Desert A last night.
"Lao Cao, don't drink too much soy milk."
"Why, soak the fried dough sticks, they taste delicious."
"Things the president shouldn't grow."
Chen Chen left a few words that made Cao Zihua think about it, and he went straight to the dressing room to change clothes.
Cao Zihua scratched his head and didn't expect anything to grow.
Soon.
Chen Chen walked out wearing a crisp suit.
Cao Zihua's sleepiness after spending the night was directly awakened by Shuai: "Oh shit, foster father, are you going to get married?"
"Is it that beautiful?"
"Handsome!" Cao Zihua gave a thumbs up. "A little bit more handsome than when I took a shower."
After hearing this, Chen Chen smiled slightly: "Wei Xiao asked me to have a seat, and I was thinking about dressing more appropriately."
"I'll go too!"
Cao Zihua immediately put down the soy milk in his hand and followed him in a hurry.
Anyway, there is nothing to do in the company today, so it would be good to have a meal with the little boss.
"Then you get dressed." Chen Chen agreed.
"I'm wearing it."
Chen Chen looked at Cao Zihua's shit-yellow pants and knew that Cao Zihua had finally been tricked by Chou Ren's wardrobe: "Didn't you say you wanted to return this set of clothes last time?"
"I was a little oily while eating and didn't quit. That's it. Wearing this while hugging the mat is a sign of respect for the master."
Chen Chen spat at him and walked straight downstairs. When he went out, the driver sent by Wei Xiao was already waiting.
The car stopped and stopped on the highway at two o'clock before arriving.
Cao Zihua stayed up all night and only drank half a bowl of soy milk in the morning. He was already a little hungry.
But fortunately, I can grab a seat later, so it’s worth the trip.
He estimated that the young boss was accompanying Mr. Wei to a relative's wedding or something.
So I don't have any social needs, so I just go in and compete with the old lady on my hand speed.
It's really a battlefield.
Cao Zihua was stunned. The banquet hall was completely decorated in Western style and there were no seats at all.
Everyone is dressed in groups of five to six.
Men wear suits, women wear quilt tops, and most of them are foreigners.
The waiter walked among the crowd holding a plate full of desserts and drinks, with no hard dishes at all.
Cao Zihua held a pudding the size of red dates in his hand: "The longest road I have walked in this life is your routine. You call this a feast?"
"Wei Xiao asked me to come to a luncheon. I wonder if it's the same as having a banquet?"
Chen Chen had known for a long time that this would be an occasion. If he had told Cao Zihua earlier, he would definitely not have followed.
"I don't even know anyone here, so you just want to relieve my boredom."
Cao Zihua pouted after hearing this: "You treat me like a cat, petting me to relieve boredom?"
"Don't put gold on your face, at most you are a dog."
Cao Zihua huffed and swallowed the pudding in one gulp, thinking that even if it was Western food, I would still get my money back.
About twenty minutes later.
Wei Xiaocai arrived late.
As soon as she entered the door, she was surrounded by a huge crowd and had no time to say hello to Chen Chen and Cao Zihua.
Cao Zihua looked on with envy: "Should we say it or not, Mr. Wei is the center of attention wherever he goes."
"She actually doesn't like to come to this kind of place, it's a social fear."
Cao Zihua glanced not far away, where Wei Xiao was chatting and laughing with several people, without any doubts: "Social terrorist?"
"It's a real matter, purely business needs." Chen Chen explained. "Isn't that right? There is a bit of a factional struggle there. Some of the people present are financial investors. Wei Xiaoxun wants to establish a good relationship with them first and then break up."
Originally, Chen Chen was unwilling to come.
But after hearing Wei Xiao's explanation, he decided to take a look.
Financial capital is not monolithic.
Wherever there are people, there are differences.
Many small shareholders also look down on Princess Jin, who seems to be in harmony with her but is very different from her heart.
Wei Xiao also has his own little plan.
Before the official confrontation, if you can get the support of these people, your side will still have the upper hand.
After hearing this, Cao Zihua said frankly: "You guys have such dirty intentions as bosses."
Chen Chen was noncommittal and pointed into the distance: "Did you see that old white man, who has a say in the financial capital and has shown goodwill to Wei Xiao recently? If we win him over, we will have a greater chance of winning this business war. ”
Cao Zihua looked along what Chen Chen was pointing at, and suddenly felt that the old white man looked familiar: "I seem to have seen him somewhere."
"???"
"It's true! Let me think about it - oh! Yes! This guy made me an offer."
"When." Chen Chen was a little surprised.
"When I was famous, many international technology innovation companies poached me. Have you forgotten? He is one of them."
Chen Chen didn't forget. And I remember it clearly.
After Chendun achieved certain results, all the technical staff in the company became popular.
Everyone has received an offer from a headhunter.
There was even a period of time when headhunters were so crazy that they were on duty downstairs at Chendun, adding their contact information to everyone they met.
Good thing.
Chendun's cohesion is no joke, and not many employees have been poached.
As for those who were poached, Chen Chen did not stop them and just wished them good luck.
He thinks this thing is the same as falling in love, bye bye, the next one will be better.
Senior technicians like Cao Zihua are of course the focus of poaching.
It's just that the bond between Cao Zihua and Chen Chen is very deep and unshakable.
besides.
At that time, Chendun had begun to be included in the national defense system, and the flow of talents was also very strict.
After Cao Zihua received the offer, the security department also investigated the companies that made the offer.
They informed Chen Chen that every company poaching Cao Zihua was bad.
To put it mildly, they are maliciously shorting the domestic technology industry.
To put it more seriously, they are hostile financial forces.
therefore.
Chen Chen looked at the old white man in the distance with cautious eyes.
They were obviously hostile forces, but they betrayed the financial capital and showed goodwill to Wei Xiao.
This is definitely not a purely capital operation, but comes with some evil stance.
The key is that Wei Xiao doesn't know about this.
All she can think about now is how to fight against the fragmentation of financial capital and recover losses.
Therefore, the factions within the financial capital were loosened, and she started to connect with each other, which was a bit over the top.
About ten minutes later, Wei Xiao finished chatting with the others and had time to stroll over to Chen Chen and Cao Zihua.
"Jianhu emergency, how is your English?"
"What's wrong?"
"Sister Tong was originally the translator, but she suddenly had appendix pain and couldn't come." Wei Xiao was worried.
Half of the people she was chatting with just now were foreigners, so she could only say hello.
"Mr. Wei, you have such a high net worth, but you don't know English?" Cao Zihua was a little surprised.
"With such a high net worth, why do I need to know English?" Wei Xiao looked at her matter-of-factly, and then asked. "You're a top student, come and translate."
Cao Zihua waved his hand repeatedly: "I always failed English in college, and now I have given it back."
"Then how did you graduate?" Wei Xiao suspected that Cao Zihua's diploma was fake.
"I have made outstanding academic contributions."
Wei Xiao never expected that Cao Zihua would be showing off at this moment, so he could only turn to look at Chen Chen: "What about you? I have to talk to Mai Sang later about some serious matters, and they are all private matters. Now please It’s too late to translate.”
Chen Chen reluctantly said: "I know a little, but not much. Basic communication is okay, please speak more slowly."
"Let's go! Let's instigate that old man to rebel."
After saying that, the doll stepped on high heels and penetrated the crowd in front of Mai San with great anticipation.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Maisang."
Wei Xiao spoke confidently and gracefully.
It could have been simply said hello.
But Wei Xiao felt that using a translator was more powerful, so she turned to look at Chen Chen.
Chen Chen also understood it immediately and translated: "Goodafternoon, myson."
The old man was in a daze at that time.
The expressions of the entourage around him also changed.
Cao Zihua on the side just took a bite of pudding and almost choked. He stared at the little boss in stunned silence, his mind filled with the little boss's translation.
My…son?
Does the little boss know it or not?
Although Cao Zihua always failed in English, he could still understand these two words.
It's okay to curse people when you come up.
Looking at the old man opposite, his eyes were a little blurry and he had a good temper. He was taken advantage of but he still shook hands with Mr. Wei slowly.
Wei Xiao: "On behalf of Shunfeng Group, I welcome you. If possible, I will prepare a private reception later to welcome you."
Chen Chen pondered for a while: "Let's go to KTV and washfeet."
There were more question marks on Mai Sang's face.
He obviously couldn't understand what Chen Chen meant, not even the assistant beside him.
However, he also had a strong desire to talk to Wei Xiao in detail, so he tried his best to understand in the direction he wanted, thinking that Wei Xiao was probably welcoming him.
So he responded: "Thank you, miss.Iamverymuchlookingforwardtofurthertalkswithyoutodiscussstrategiccooperationinthefieldofunmannedlowaltitude.Ourcompanyattachesgreatimportancetoinvestmentop portsinthisfieldandhaslongbeenconcernedaboutthedevelopmentandfutureofunmannedaerialvehicles.Wefirmlybelievethatyourcompanyisundoubtedlyapillarforceintheindustry.”
"What did he say?" Wei Xiao looked at Chen Chen eagerly.
Chen Chen thought for three seconds: "He said 'ok'."
"????"
