Chapter 240: Upheaval
Hundreds of eyes in the audience were focused on William and Maxim, and everyone realized that something big had happened, otherwise, how could two foreigners with heads, faces and identities completely abandon the image and demeanor that they regard as an important part of their lives in this public place?
Coming down from one end of the rostrum, and then passing through the front of the rostrum to the other end, there is actually a distance of less than fifty meters, but for Maxim, it is like passing through the entire Maginot Line, and finally, under the leadership of William, he stopped in front of Huayuan, more precisely, in front of Qiu Ruoyu.
Mei and other staff of Lange & Söhne Pharmaceutical also came to the rostrum, and William and the two of them distanced slightly, still confused, but their faces remained solemn and consistent with the boss, which is no difference between the Eastern and Western workplaces.
What is going on in this battle? Qiu Ruoyu was also confused, she stood up, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes: "Mr. William, who are you?"
William's face was straight, his expression was solemn, and the next moment, he bowed slightly to Qiu Ruoyu and said apologetically: "Dear Ms. Qiu Ruoyu, on behalf of Lange & Söhne Pharmaceutical, I would like to express my great apologies to you. ”
Maxim's face was depressed, he didn't even dare to look at Qiu Ruoyu, stood beside William, bowed ninety degrees, and pleaded in a pleading tone: "Dear Ms. Qiu, I'm sorry..."
In this regard, Maxim can't raise the slightest resistance, William said very clearly, the old patriarch of the Glenn family made it clear in the phone call, if there is a little dissatisfaction with Qiu Ruoyu, from now on, Maxim's grandfather's line will be completely expelled from the family, directly demoted from a nobleman to a commoner, the consequences are too serious.
Maxim never dreamed that a trip to China would end his life's future, and even affect his family.
What kind of big man did he offend? At this moment, he felt that he was a clown, and his so-called self-esteem was beaten like powder.
When Mei and other members of Lange Pharmaceutical saw this scene, they kind of understood what was going on, eighty percent of Maxim's previous "accusations" against Qiu Ruoyu were purely fictitious, and based on this alone, in Jianlimei's words, Maxim constituted the crime of defamation, which was to be compensated and sentenced.
They all showed guilt, no matter what, Maxim is a member of Lange Pharmaceutical, his fault is, to some extent, the fault of Lange Pharmaceutical, and the Western corporate culture is very particular about a sense of community.
The huge venue was silent, and everyone present was unbelievable and dumbfounded, only those reporters were the most active, professional cameras, and photography were all started, not to mention, several of them also took out their mobile phones to take pictures non-stop, as if they were afraid of missing a small lens.
Qiu Ruoyu stood there, thinking that her mood was also very uncalm, after all, this one was too sudden, and she was used to seeing big scenes, so she maintained her composure on her face, leaned slightly, and nodded slightly.
"Ms. Qiu, why don't you continue the signing ceremony first, and then we will discuss it in detail after it is over, and my initial suggestion is to hold another press conference and ask Maxim to apologize to you. William said cautiously, looking very cautious, as if he was afraid that his proposal would make Qiu Ruoyu unhappy.
"Okay, let's wait until it's over. Qiu Ruoyu didn't think about it carefully, so she agreed to deal with it, from her heart, she didn't want to make it so serious.
Seeing that Qiu Ruoyu was not angry, William breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and asked the two security guards to take Maxim to the rest room at the back, and he called Steven and May, and the three walked back to the special passage.
"Captain Fang, I confess, Mr. Qiu asked me to make a phone call just now, the other party is an orphan funded anonymously by Mr. Qiu, now working in an investment bank on Wall Street, and recently happened to be in charge of an investment project related to Lange Pharmaceutical, Mr. Qiu is not sure if he can help, now it seems that the other party is quite powerful..."
"Well, what else did the other party say?" Qiu Ruoyu seemed to understand Ye Ning's intentions, which was to lead the connection behind this to her, and glanced at the man lightly, and asked very cooperatively.
Ye Ning's bucket-like heart suddenly calmed down, and he smiled: "The other party also said that Mr. Qiu's great kindness is unforgettable in this life, and his admiration for Mr. Qiu is like a surging river, and it is a blessing that Mr. Qiu has cultivated for eight lifetimes..."
The tide of gossip surged, and later, Ye Ning also felt that it was a little too much, so he scratched his head in embarrassment.
Fang Lan, Miao Huiying, and Han Hui automatically ignored Ye Ning's big sycophancy, but they all believed that it was Qiu Ruoyu's handiwork behind this, and looked at the latter with more reverence.
As a subordinate, especially a close subordinate, who doesn't want to be with a boss who can get through the sky?
Qiu Ruoyu just chuckled and didn't say anything, not that she deliberately pretended to be profound, but that she couldn't figure out the direction, so she could only sit and wait for the next development.
Xiao Zhenshan on the rostrum looked slightly calm, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, he knew that something must have happened that he didn't know, at this time, he could only hope that it would not develop in the worst direction, this cooperation is too critical for the overall situation of the Xiao family, and in a sense, it will directly affect the fate of the Xiao family.
Six or seven minutes later, in the special passage, William and the three walked back to the venue, and then stepped on the rostrum together, Mei sat in the position before Steven, looking at the audience calmly, if you look closely, there is a trace of suppressed excitement in the look, William sat down next to the host, and Steven did not take a seat, directly found Xiao Zhenshan, the two did not know what to communicate, they saw that Xiao Zhenshan got up from his seat with a black face, swept the Huayuan side of the stage like a ghost, and then walked off the rostrum.
The audience was still silent, but the expressions of the guests in the audience had changed drastically, at this time, Xiao Zhenshan was asked to leave the seat of Party B, doesn't it mean that there is nothing to do with Xiao in the next signing ceremony, and who will replace it? Thinking of the previous scene where William and Maxim apologized to Qiu Ruoyu in public, the answer is about to come out.
Sure enough, William took the microphone and announced the news that the headquarters of Lange & Söhne Pharmaceutical decided to appoint Mei as the director of the cooperation project in Huaxia District, and Mei immediately announced the "mystery", and the partner selected by Lange & Söhne Pharmaceutical this time is: Huayuan Group.
