Sitting in the office chair next to the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking at the hot scene of the construction site not far away, Zhao Chunlei, who is the designer of the small SUV "Song", always has a sense of expectation and satisfaction in his heart.

In particular, the preparation of the first wind tunnel laboratory in China made him full of imagination for the future. Having your own wind tunnel lab is probably one of the dreams of any car designer.

"Zhao, don't look at it, we still have to wait a year before their completion date. ”

George, an American who has found professional value in the Chung Hwa Group, couldn't help but advise when he saw his partner staring out the window at the same place every day.

"It's like watching a seed sprout in the ground, and every day you find something different. If you look at the buildings with a well-built base, it looks like a seed has just broken through the ground. I'm going to bring my digital camera and record how they grow into towering trees.

George, who would have thought that two years ago we were still agonizing about not having a wind tunnel lab when we designed Don, but now it's growing right in front of us and will be available for us next year.

Now that I think about it, it's really a very magical experience, and I don't think it's too much to call it the Chinese dream!"

Zhao Chunlei also saw himself from an unknown graduate to become the chief designer of a well-known Chinese independent brand automobile company in one fell swoop.

"You are right, there are many job opportunities in China, and I have advised my friends in the United States to develop in China and look for your so-called Chinese dream. The 20th century belongs to the United States, but the 21st century belongs to China!"

Sensing the potential for China's economy to boom, George couldn't help but comment.

He has just recommended an old colleague to apply for a job at Chung Hwa Group, and he has successfully joined the newly established NVH department. GM has its own way of creating a luxurious atmosphere, and George's former colleague is a prominent NVH expert who will mentor Chinese engineers in building research systems.

While Zhao Chunlei and George were chatting, Han Hao was receiving Xiao Qianyu with an angry face in the office.

"Sit down!"

Han Hao stretched out his hand and motioned for the other party to sit down, and then asked the secretary to leave and closed the door.

Chunghwa Group has just officially informed ZF that the purchase volume of CVT transmissions next year and the year after will be implemented in accordance with the minimum contract standard, and at the same time asked the other party to reduce the supply amount by 8%.

Compared with this year, the purchase volume next year will be 50,000 units, a decrease of 50%, and the volume will be further reduced to 30,000 units in the following year.

As a result, ZF's 150,000 CVT production capacity has been directly emptied by more than half, and the current Chinese auto market is sluggish, ZF's orders are not ideal. Originally, Chery agreed to purchase 10,000 CVTs, but later changed its mind and cooperated with Mitsubishi to purchase engines and 4-speed automatic transmissions.

In the foreseeable next year, ZF's CVT business will face a loss. ZF cannot afford to compete with Mitsubishi, which bundles its automatic transmission with its engine, and its CVT sold separately does not have a suitable customer in China for the time being, except for the Chunghwa Group.

Why Xiao Qianyu is so angry, because Zhonghua Group suddenly made this request and did not tell her, but directly confirmed with ZF.

You must know that Xiao Qianyu belongs to the person in charge of ZF's CVT business in the Chinese market, and she doesn't even know about such a big thing, which is a very serious dereliction of duty. Moreover, she had agreed with Han Hao about internal and external cooperation, and if the CVT business was sold in the future, she would have the right to a commission.

"What the hell do you mean, are you going to cross the river and tear down the bridge?"

Xiao Qianyu looked at Han Hao motionlessly and asked angrily.

"It's a normal corporate behavior, and we've developed our own CVT, and of course we're considering using our own products. Moreover, telling you and not telling you has no impact on the outcome of the matter, we just follow the contract. ”

Han Hao calmly poured a cup of tea for his old classmate and replied.

To be honest, he was quite grateful to God for letting Xiao Qianyu appear in front of him again.

He does not deny that Xiao Qianyu left indelible traces in her youth back then, but now all the good things of the other party buried in his heart in the past are fading little by little.

Back then, I thought about the idea of fighting for each other, but now I think back on it is just a dream of youth and ignorance.

He has never understood each other, Xiao Qianyu is more like a person who happened to appear by his side in his youth, without her, there would be others to fill this position.

Now that Xiao Qianyu has appeared, she is personally pulling out the halo she planted in Han Hao's heart one by one. Xiao Qianyu, who has no aura, is just an ordinary old classmate in Han Hao's heart.

"I've heard from my colleagues in Europe that you have made an offer to ZF to buy the CVT business. Sure enough, he is the richest man in China, and the timing of his move is very good. ”

With the Chunghwa Group already having its own CVT and the cold winter of China's auto market, ZF's CVT business volume has shrunk significantly, and the acquisition at this time will make ZF seriously consider the gains and losses.

If it is not sold, it will have to bear continuous losses in China, and it will also face competition after the development of Chunghwa Group's CVT in the future, and the longer it drags on, the less valuable the business will be. If you sell it, it can be sold at a high point, anyway, CVT is a chicken rib business for ZF, except for the Chinese market, there is no other place in the world to need. Just having the right people interested in it can make a lot of money and get rid of the burden of the CVT department.

The reason why Zhonghua Group wants to acquire ZF's CVT business is because its CVT transmission does not bear enough torque and can only be used under the 1.6L engine. If you continue to develop and improve, it will take several years to conquer the high-torque solution. If ZF can be acquired, it will be able to directly obtain the high-torque technology of the other party. In the future, it can be used with engines of 1.8L and above, which will improve the layout of Zhonghua Group's mid-class vehicles in the future.

"The plan is not as fast as the change, the timing is faster than I thought, then we have to make a move. But rest assured, the promise I made to you is still valid. ”

Han Hao said with a faint smile on his face.

"I finally got this position, but I didn't expect that my ass was not hot yet, so I had to abdicate and make way for Xian. My European colleagues have revealed that the headquarters wants me to take responsibility and resign voluntarily. ”

It seems that this reason is the root cause of Xiao Qianyu's gaffe.

She finally struggled to the top of the multinational company in China, but she was asked to leave after a few days, which greatly disappointed Xiao Qianyu, who has always been unwilling to be left behind.

"Life is like this, there will always be surprises or disappointments in the casual moment, and it will also bring you the opportunity to start over.

I had been through such a difficult time back then, but gritting my teeth and getting through this hurdle was a new day. ”

When he said this, Han Hao recalled that after witnessing Xiao Qianyu having a boyfriend, he was drunk and crying on the top of the mountain alone.

"Presumably, with your ingenuity, it will not be a problem to get back into the job. Moreover, this card is more than enough to compensate you for what you lost today. ”

Knowing that Xiao Qianyu was coming, Han Hao prepared her so-called commission.

5 million yuan, enough for an ordinary Chinese family to turn over and live a good life, is also 10 times the annual salary of Xiao Qianyu's current salary income. She came to work in China according to the European salary standard, so the salary is naturally a head higher.

Given this huge amount of money, Han Hao also fully considered the relationship between people, and he also hoped that the girl he once admired could live happily.

"Can I work for Chung Wah Group?"

Xiao Qianyu asked after taking the envelope containing the card.

"Our ruined temple can't accommodate an immortal like you!"

Han Hao jokingly rejected the other party's application.

Since the two can't get along with each other, it's better to forget about each other.

A week passed, Xiao Qianyu voluntarily submitted her resignation and left ZF.

At 10 o'clock one night shortly thereafter, Han Hao returned to his residence after working overtime to take a shower and rest, and suddenly received a call from Xiao Qianyu's mobile phone.

At the first glance, Han Hao didn't pick up the phone, and let it ring for a while. Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, the phone rang again, and he had to connect the phone.

"Hey, is this Mr. Han Hao? We have a female customer here who is drunk, let me call you to take her home. ”

It was a man who spoke, and the background sound was very noisy, probably in which bar.

Asking if the address was a bar in Jiangzhou, Han Hao thought for a while and drove towards the address. No matter what, he couldn't look at the drunk Xiao Qianyu and ignore it.

Through mobile phone contact, Han Hao came to a bar located on Jiangzhou Bar Street and met Xiao Qianyu who was lying unconscious on the table.

Han ...... Mr. Han, I didn't expect it to ...... It's you!"

The bartender who called originally thought it was just a person with the same name and surname, but he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Han Hao, the richest man in Jiangzhou, and his voice couldn't help but tremble.

Although Han Hao was wearing a baseball cap, the bartender still recognized his identity at a glance under the light at close range.

When the female customer in front of me was drinking alone, she also talked about being the richest man's old classmate, and she echoed a few times. Since working in a bar, the bartender has seen no less than dozens of people swearing that they know the richest man Han Hao, or what pair of pants they wear to the big one, they are just bragging on the spot.

But today, this female customer gave him a real insight. Judging from the current situation, it seems that there is some kind of ulterior secret between the female customer and the richest man.

After asking for the wine money, Han Hao took out a thousand yuan and handed it to the bar, helping Xiao Qianyu pay the bill, and at the same time signaling him to keep quiet, and the extra money should be regarded as a tip.

"Han-Hao, you're finally here!"

Picking up the drunken Xiao Qianyu, she finally opened her eyes and said such a sentence after seeing Han Hao.

"Today...... I'm ...... again My mom had a fight......"

On the way to the car, Han Hao heard what had happened from Xiao Qianyu's intermittent words. She had a fight with her mom on the phone for some reason today, and when she was in a bad mood, she tried to learn from the people on TV to come to the bar to get drunk. Fortunately, when she was half drunk, she explained to the bartender her acquaintance in Jiangzhou, Han Hao, and asked the bartender to find the richest man to pay.

"Why...... Originally...... I didn't choose you...... When my boyfriend? like that...... I am...... The happiest woman in the world......"

Taking advantage of the strength of the wine, Xiao Qianyu seemed to be a different person, dancing and hugging Han Hao and said.

Although the beautiful woman was in her arms, Han Hao ignored her nonsense, opened the car door and pushed her into the back seat, and hurriedly started the car to leave.

Driving the car, Han Hao is really in trouble now, where to take Xiao Qianyu. He didn't know Xiao Qianyu's residence in Jiangzhou, and it was even more inconvenient to bring it back to his home, so he finally planned to open two rooms in the hotel and settle down.

"What the hell am I ...... What did you do wrong...... Got everybody to target me......"

Fortunately, Xiao Qianyu quarreled for a while, then fell asleep in the back seat, without bothering Han Hao too much, but the whole car was full of strong smell of alcohol.

"I have a friend who is drunk, and if any of you want to make extra money, just help me keep a vigil tonight and watch her. ”

Driving to the front desk of a star-rated hotel, Han Hao said to the staff.

I can earn 1,000 yuan in extra money in one night, and immediately two female staff members who are about to shift raise their hands.

went to the car to help Xiao Qianyu down, and the two staff carried her up to the elevator and entered the room.

"I'm right next door, and if there's anything unexpected, you can knock on the door and call me. You help watch her and don't let her go wrong. ”

After Han Hao saw Xiao Qianyu lying on the bed and falling asleep, he instructed the two hotel staff.

was troubled by Xiao Qianyu like this, Han Hao also lost interest in taking a bath, and went to sleep directly with his clothes closed. I didn't feel at ease in the middle of the night, but I didn't sleep well because I had something in my heart, and I knocked on the door to look next door twice, and found that there was no problem, so I was relieved.

In the morning, Xiao Qianyu woke up with her dizzy head, and slowly recalled her embarrassing experience last night under the narration of the hotel staff.

She remembered that she had said everything in her heart to Han Hao, including many thoughts that should not be spoken.

At this time, Han Hao also woke up, and after finding that Xiao Qianyu had woken up, he ordered the two staff members to leave, and at the same time helped order breakfast. Of course, he also delivered the extra money to the other party in time, after all, they were also busy all night.

"Don't drink so much alcohol in the future, it's not good for your health. ”

Han Hao, who had bloodshot eyes in his eyes, said to Xiao Qianyu.

"I'm sorry to make a trip. Last night was my first time drinking at a bar, and I didn't expect it to be such an embarrassing scene. ”

At this moment, Xiao Qianyu is no longer as tough as before, and she has more weak femininity. By Han Hao's side, she could feel a strong sense of security, and the man in front of her was capable enough to protect herself.

"Take care, I'll go back to the company first. If you encounter something like this in the future, I may not necessarily be in Jiangzhou, you have to protect yourself. ”

Han Hao wanted to persuade the other party to have a good relationship with his mother, but he didn't say it when the words came to his mouth, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. However, before leaving, he still advised Xiao Qianyu to pay attention to safety.

"If I said something wrong last night, please don't care, it's all drunken nonsense. ”

Seeing that Han Hao was leaving, Xiao Qianyu seized the opportunity and said.

"It's nothing, I forgot what you said in a hurry. ”

Han Hao naturally didn't care too much, so he replied.

"Wait—what would you do if what I said last night was true?"

Seeing that Han Hao was about to turn around and leave, Xiao Qianyu took advantage of the rare opportunity for the two to be alone and asked Han Hao.

Of course, she knew that Han Hao had a good impression of her when she was young, and the man was not married to the woman, but now she doesn't know if the other party can still accept her.

"You are a smart and capable girl, and you will definitely find the right partner for yourself. What's more, I already have someone I like. ”

After Han Hao finished speaking, he no longer gave the other party a chance to continue to ask, and resolutely turned around and left the hotel room.

Only Xiao Qianyu, who was a little stunned, was left, and Han Hao said the sentence "I already have someone I like" in her mind.

This announced that the dream of Prince Charming, which she had always fantasized, was officially shattered, Han Hao was a well-deserved Prince Charming, but she was not the lucky Cinderella!
