Chapter 49 Negotiation 1
Coincidentally, when I looked at him, he also saw me, and the two of them looked at each other. Li Minghui straightened his collar and walked over to me and Sun Bowen with a smile, the kind of smile that didn't smile.
"This guy, I never saw him wearing a suit these days since he came back to the company, and now he suddenly wears a suit, I guess he has something serious to do. Sun Bowen whispered to me in an inconspicuous position.
I glared at him and replied in a low voice, "How much do you know, you even pay attention to what people wear." ”
Li Minghui walked up to us and asked politely, "Two little brothers, can you borrow a fire?" He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, this cigarette box was different from what we usually smoked, it was a metal box of cigarettes.
"Yes, yes, come, Brother Hui, I'll help you order it. Sun Bowen behaved very tactfully at this critical moment, and took out a lighter with a smile to light a cigarette for Li Minghui.
After lighting the cigarette, Li Minghui gently patted Sun Bowen's hand, and he squinted his eyes and took a puff of the cigarette, as if he enjoyed the feeling of others flattering him.
Li Minghui said politely: "I saw that you were smiling happily when chatting just now, I don't know what you were talking about, can you share it with me?"
I smiled and picked up: "It's just small talk, there's nothing to share." ”
Li Minghui nodded simply, did not continue, he looked at the scenery outside the office building, and smoked silently, but every puff was very urgent, as if he was using the nicotine in the cigarette to cover the unknown thoughts in his heart.
"In the last few days of the cold winter of Layue, the new year is coming soon, and looking at the sky, it will soon change. Li Minghui said softly as if talking to himself.
If someone else said such a thing, I would definitely think it was just an ordinary emotion, but at this moment, coming out of his mouth, I always feel that there is something in the words. This is a hint to us, is the "sky" of Qichen about to change?
"Brother Hui, do you still know how to read the heavens?" I asked tentatively.
"I know a little bit about it, I can't talk about it......" He raised his hand and glanced at the time on his watch, and continued: "There will be a meeting later, if you two are interested, you can come and listen to it." ”
Sun Bowen glanced at me, and a tacit understanding was instantly formed in his eyes, and we nodded at the same time: "Yes." ”
Li Minghui tilted his head slightly, smiled and asked, "Okay, the meeting will start in ten minutes, I'll go over first, do you want to go together or continue to talk for a while?"
"Go over first, we'll be right here. ”
"Okay, then we'll see you in the big conference room. After speaking, Li Minghui vigorously snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned around and left the smoking area.
After he left, Sun Bowen's whole person softened, exhaled heavily, and said with a frightened expression: "I'll go! I really can't talk about people during the day, you see, as soon as I say it, I will arrive, and I will be scared to death." ”
I ignored his words and asked, "Did you find any details about him?"
He glanced at me and said dissatisfiedly: "What details, when dealing with this kind of old fox, I feel like walking on thin ice, where do I get the attention to observe him." ”
"First, it can be seen from Li Minghui's tie that he rarely wears a suit on weekdays, and people who often wear suits must be very good at wearing a tie; second, when he was smoking just now, he smoked every puff very quickly, and it can be seen from here that he is very addicted to smoking.
Sun Bowen nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with my guess, and asked instead, "So...... Do you mean that he deliberately asked me to borrow a lighter, just to find a topic?"
"Perhaps, he has already found out about us and is just looking for an excuse to come and call us to a meeting, but what is the purpose of doing this?"
"That's a bit reasonable...... Sun Bowen touched his chin, looked at me and praised me: "Yes! It seems that in the past few days of disappearance, you have opened up?"
I smiled indifferently, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "If there's anything you can't get your eyes on, maybe it's just our guessing here, because what you see may only be what others want you to see." ”
Sun Bowen was still in a daze, and he didn't react to what I said for a while, so I urged: "Let's go! Everyone has invited us to a meeting." ”
......
When I arrived in the large conference room, I saw a lot of acquaintances, Qichen's general manager Xiang Zong, Wang Hao, Han Yue, Li Minghui, and several other senior executives of the company, and the company's executives were basically here.
Sun Bowen and I were just about to pull out our chairs and sit down, when one of the executives suddenly asked in a cold voice, "This is an executive meeting, what are you two doing here?"
Before we could answer, Li Minghui, who was sitting on the other side, stood up, smiled for us and said: "Mr. Xu, I invited these two to come, it doesn't matter, we all know the content of today's meeting, they are also from the company, plus this colleague named 'Cheng Ting'...... He should be present at this meeting. ”
Although Li Minghui didn't make the words clear, in fact, everyone understood the meaning of the words, and the person named Mr. Xu glanced at General Manager Xiang, and he didn't continue until Mr. Xiang nodded slightly. Taking advantage of this time, I looked in the direction of Han Yue, trying to make the two of them look at each other, but her attention was always on her phone, and she didn't know who she was talking to.
After a short while, the conference room gradually quieted down, and Xiang always said to everyone in a dignified tone: "Since everyone is here, let's start." ”
He picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of tea, paused, and continued: "Recently, I have heard some gossip in the company, saying that Director Han abused his power to cover up some bad behaviors of his subordinates, but is there really such a thing? This is not a very serious matter, but I have heard that someone deliberately and secretly fanned the flames behind his back and made the matter bigger in the company. What do you think about this, Minghui?"
I slowly deliberated on Xiang Zong's words in my heart, and I had to admire the weight of what he said, firstly, to say the key points of the matter, and secondly, in a later turn, I secretly gave Han Yue a foreshadowing protection, and asked Li Minghui to answer the call, which can be said to be a double victory.
Li Minghui first smiled and nodded slightly to Mr. Xiang, and then said: "Mr. Xiang, everything can't be groundless, even if you hear about it, there will definitely be some truth in it." But...... Whether it's true or not, we should all use evidence to speak, Mr. Xiang, what do you think?"
"Li Minghui, you don't have to pretend here! Since the day you were transferred back to the headquarters, when has the company been calm?" Wang Hao suddenly pointed at Li Minghui angrily and scolded.
In the face of Wang Hao's sudden impulsive words, Xiang Zong frowned and said coldly: "Wang Hao, what are you doing! This is a meeting, pay attention to your words and deeds and speaking attitude!"
Li Minghui looked embarrassed, shook his head and said helplessly: "Alas, Wang Hao, you have wronged me too much if you say this! The company will suddenly become so chaotic, that means that the problem itself exists, it can't be because I went back to the headquarters to have such a situation, if you want to blame some people for relying on their management position to accommodate their subordinates, I, Li Minghui, hate those related households the most!"
Not to mention all the people present, but most of them knew the private relationship between Xiang Zong and Han Yue, and also knew that Han Yue and I had always been very close, and there were even rumors that I was pursuing Han Yue. Li Minghui's words of scolding Sang actually expressed his dissatisfaction with Xiang Zong, but there is one thing I don't understand, what hole cards are behind him, can he say such things so unscrupulously?
Xiang Zong's displeased expression flashed, but soon returned to his normal expression. At this time, Wang Hao was much calmer than just now, holding back his emotions, and asked in a deep voice: "You keep saying that you want to show evidence, so what evidence do you have to prove that what you said is right?"
Li Minghui looked confident, and replied with an arrogant expression: "Evidence? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at him, because this is the best way to solve this matter at present.
The atmosphere in the entire conference room gradually became tense because of what Li Minghui said, and everyone was looking forward to what his so-called "evidence" was. I shifted my gaze to Han Yue's body, compared to the changes of others, Han Yue, the client, seemed very calm, and never said a word from beginning to end.
Li Minghui took out his mobile phone from his pocket, dialed a number, and said simply: "In the big conference room, come in." Then he hung up the phone.
No one knew exactly who he called, but it was only a few moments before the door to the conference room opened......
