Chapter 1660: Serial Pits
Roland Maas originally thought that he was also the chairman of the board of directors of a Fortune 500 company, and that coming to Huaxia to apologize to Li Mu in person had already given Li Mu a lot of face, and Li Mu should stop in moderation and give himself enough respect.
But he never thought that this young Chinese entrepreneur was still not satisfied, and even when he had arrived in his company hall, he refused to meet with him, and even intensified his efforts to hold a press conference in Yanjing.
Coming to Huaxia to apologize in person is already the limit of what Roland Maas can do.
His trip to China this time was highly confidential, not only did he not leak the news to any media, but even his own company only the real senior management knew that the reason why he did such a strict confidentiality work was that he wanted to solve this contradiction in a low-key manner and preserve his face to the greatest extent.
On this point, the board members who did not deal with Roland Maas also agreed with him, they were very willing to humiliate Roland Maas in private, and even kicked him off the board of directors, but no one wanted Roland Maas to be humiliated outside.
Because, if Roland Maas loses face outside, then he represents the whole of Mars.
Now, Roland Maas, who came to China from thousands of miles away, was dismissed by an ordinary receptionist of Makino Technology in a few words, and his heart suddenly became angry.
He said to the front desk lady with an extremely ugly expression: "Please tell you Mr. Li now, if he doesn't want to see me, then I will turn around and go back to the United States, and my plane is waiting at Yanjing Airport!"
The front desk had to contact Li Ziwei again through the internal phone, Li Ziwei heard Roland Maas's "cruel words", and hurriedly conveyed it to Li Mu, Li Mu smiled faintly when he heard it, and said: "Tell Roland Maas, just say I wish him a safe journey." ”
Li Ziwei couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "Mr. Li, do you really want to treat him like this?"
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "He thought that he sneaked over to apologize to me, and this matter was over? ”
In the last life, the continued development of the Internet will breed many gray industries, one of which is online fraud.
The difference between online fraud and telephone fraud is that online fraud often starts from the feelings of the opposite sex, and they use different scripts from telephone scams.
Li Mu once knew a buddy who was not very easy to use, and one day found that there was a beautiful woman who added him to WeChat, and then passed the other party's friend application, and the other party immediately came up to ask for warmth, and even took the initiative to confide in his sad past, a day or two later, the two have been chatting hotly in the unfamiliar Internet world, and even the other party often sends him beautiful life selfies, which makes him itchy and unbearable.
After getting acquainted, he began to dig the first pit tentatively, usually making excuses that he suddenly encountered something, suddenly had no change, suddenly could not use online banking or Alipay, and then asked him to transfer one or two hundred yuan for emergency.
One or two hundred yuan is nothing to him, plus the conversation is speculative, he also has some covetousness for beauties, and he doesn't want beauties to think that he is very picky, so he happily gives it.
After the money was given, the other party returned it to him a few hours later, and even thanked him, and then the relationship between the two further warmed up, the other party felt that he had a good heart and was worth relying on, and the two parties began to enter a hot honeymoon period.
After entering the honeymoon period, the two parties officially started online dating, and the husband and wife were tired of it every day, but the other party suddenly got into a lot of trouble, and then they borrowed money, borrowed money, borrowed money one after another, and the man fell into one gentle trap after another, and when he finally woke up, he had already smashed hundreds of thousands of dollars on this woman he had never met.
But this is not the most ruthless, the most ruthless thing is that when the friend reported the case, he learned that the other party had deceived countless people across the country, and the most one was deceived by nearly one million.
What Li Mu wants to play with Roland Maas now is such a serial mode.
For Roland Maas, if he can really turn around and leave, then Li Mu will be impressed by him, but Li Mu knows in his heart that since Roland Maas has come to China and taken the first step, he will not really give up.
In the history of Mars growing up for so many years, it has never encountered such a strong opponent as Makino Technology, and now, Makino Technology is just manipulating public opinion on the Internet, which has brought so much trouble to Mars, and Mars must shake hands with itself at all costs, otherwise it will continue like this, Makino Technology is not damaged, but Mars is like a wound that cannot be healed, constantly flowing blood.
This wound may not be fatal to the huge Mars, but it will also make him very uncomfortable, if Roland Maas can't let this wound heal when he comes to China this time, then he will not have a good time with Mars in the future.
Roland Maas has always felt that Li Mu is a young man who loves face and holds grudges, Mars touched his porcelain, he was naturally unhappy, relying on the resources in his hands, he deliberately wanted to rectify Mars's wave and ask for face, he came here, he had to give himself a step down, so that everyone could be happy.
Because of this, Roland Maas thought that Li Mu was likely to compromise if he took his return to China as a threat, because what he wanted was face, and he would definitely not want to fight chickens and eggs.
When the front desk picked up the phone, Roland Maas was still secretly proud, thinking that this call must have been invited by Li Mu to go upstairs, but Li Mu once again surprised him.
After hearing Li Ziwei's explanation, the front desk asked with some surprise: "Sister Ziwei, do you really want to say that?"
Li Ziwei snorted and said, "Just tell him in English." ”
The front desk unconsciously stuck out his tongue and said, "Okay, I'll tell him." ”
After saying that, she hung up the phone, looked at Roland Maas with some embarrassment, and didn't know how to speak for a while.
After all, she is a little girl, thin-skinned and soft-hearted, knowing that Roland Maas in front of her came all the way from the United States, but it is really a bit cruel to let others run for nothing with a word from her boss.
Roland Maas didn't know this, seeing the girl at the front desk with a tangled face, she thought that she knew her identity and knew that she was a distinguished guest, so she was a little afraid.
So he deliberately smiled and asked, "How is it, what do you Mr. Li say?"
The girl at the front desk said seriously: "Mr. Mas, our Mr. Li asked me to tell you, and he wishes you a safe journey." ”
"What?" Roland Maas didn't react for a moment, thinking that he had misheard, and couldn't help but ask again, "What did you just say?"
The girl at the front desk deliberately slowed down her speech and said, "Didn't you say that you wanted to go back to the United States, I told Mr. Li what you said, and Mr. Li asked me to tell you, saying that he wished you a safe journey." ”
"I ......" Roland Maas only felt as if his entire chest had been slammed into by a locomotive, and he never thought that Li Mu would give such an answer.
Have a safe trip?
Does that mean that you want to go back to the United States as soon as possible?
What does this guy want to do? Doesn't he just want to apologize? He has been here all the time, why does he still have to be so oily and salty? If he continues to get along with Mars, it will not do him or Makino Technology any good! Even if Mars goes bankrupt and goes bankrupt, Makino Technology will not get any benefits, and the business of the two companies is completely unrelated, so why do they have to bite so hard and so ruthlessly?
Roland Maas suddenly had a hard time riding a tiger.
The emotional side of his heart told him: Hurry up, go without looking back, go directly to the airport, and then fly back to the United States, don't be insulted by Li Mu again;
However, the rational side of his heart told him: You have to endure it, you must endure it, and you can't go back empty-handed no matter what, so that your face in front of Li Mu will be saved, but your initiative in Mars will be lost, face is important, but interests are even more important.
Just when Roland Maas didn't know what to do, the girl at the front desk said cautiously: "Sir, if there is nothing to do, please go back first, we have other visitors to ...... reception."
A young girl at the front desk was able to give an eviction order to herself, which made Roland Maas extremely depressed, but she couldn't attack it at all.
However, Roland Maas, who had just been hit by Li Mu's words, had a feeling that there were too many lice and no itching after being mended by the girl at the front desk.
The scales in his mind tilted instantly, and at this time he felt that since his face had been lost, as long as he could keep his interests, it didn't matter if he lost a little more face, otherwise, not only would his previous face be lost, but even his interests would be lost in vain.
After figuring out this, Roland Maas's attitude immediately softened, and he said to the girl at the front desk very apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I was a little impulsive just now, please communicate with Mr. Li again, just say that I have figured it out, and I am willing to hold a press conference, how to do it, and ask Mr. Li to give specific instructions." ”
Seeing Roland Maas's panicked look, the front desk lady couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud, and then hurriedly changed to a serious expression of work, and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll contact our assistant president again." ”
The smile of the front desk lady made Roland Maas embarrassed, and his old face even turned red because of it.
However, he could only grit his teeth and bury these humiliations in his heart, only hoping that he could solve this big trouble as soon as possible, as for the problem of face, he firmly believed that it was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
When Li Ziwei received the call from the front desk, she immediately smiled and said to Li Mu: "Mr. Li, Roland Maas has compromised and said that he is willing to hold a press conference, please give me your instructions." ”
Li Mu pursed his lips and said, "I don't have anything to command, let him take care of it himself, but I have to tell him that whether I will see him or not depends entirely on his attitude and performance at the press conference!"
