Section 2: First Encounters
Only Jiang Haoran unabashedly said that he wanted "coffee", the coffee and tea that his father had in reserve here were top-notch, but he was not "cold" to tea at all, and the bitter taste was not a taste to drink.
In fact, coffee is also bitter!
Jiang Baige took his own teacup and waved his hand: "Drink tea!"
Jiang Haoran took a sip of coffee, it was very hot, put it on the coffee table again, and then said: "Dad, Ziyan is a very good talent that I finally invited back, I have to arrange a good position for him to play ......"
Jiang Baige waved his hand again, and said with a slight smile: "I know, Haoran, since you said that you are going to work hard, then go to the following company departments to take a look, take a turn, and get familiar with everyone." ”
"Okay, Dad, then I'll go down!" Jiang Haoran naturally heard that his father was going to have a separate "interview" with Zhou Ziyan, he was always strict and harsh on his work, but he was not worried about Zhou Ziyan, so he readily agreed.
Jiang Haoran went out, and Guan Huijuan also quietly retreated, closing the office door gently.
Jiang Baige stared at Zhou Ziyan while drinking tea, this young man who seemed to have a very special temperament had a calm atmosphere that did not match his age, and he even seemed to see the shadow of his youth in this young man!
To be honest, he had a good eye for this young man.
But Jiang Baige is by no means a person who believes in people just by his eyes, he is a top figure in the shopping mall, the absolute king of Baige's wealth giant, such a person, he believes in absolutely only himself!
And he also particularly hates people who rely on relationships to ask for "status", so although he has an eye for Zhou Ziyan, he doesn't like him very much in his heart.
For this "talent" brought by his son, Jiang Baige secretly thought to himself, he still has to give face, just cover up an inconsequential position, and wait a few days to find a reason to make him make a mistake and fire it, his son has nothing to say if he makes a mistake himself!
After pondering for a while, Jiang Baige looked at Zhou Ziyan before he spoke: "Well, Xiao Zhou, I heard Haoran say that you are an amazing talent, I want to know what are the great aspects!"
"It's not as outrageous as Haoran said, that is, I have been a securities broker on Wall Street for a few years, and I have some small achievements, but it is not enough for a successful person like Jiang Dong!"
Zhou Ziyan did not retreat under Jiang Baige's gaze, and after a while, Jiang Baige looked away and said meaningfully: "You still have some rare modesty in young people, I heard you say that you are a securities broker, I am a little strange, how can you give up the achievements and status you already have and return to China?"
Jiang Baige's vision is like electricity, in fact, it is basically equivalent to telling Zhou Ziyan that his son Jiang Haoran is easy to deceive, but it does not mean that he, the old man, is also easy to deceive!
Zhou Ziyan smiled and replied: " Mr. Jiang, I actually understand what you mean, I am a brother-like friend with Haoran, but this time I chose to return to China is not entirely his reason, I came to meet you mainly to give Haoran an explanation, as far as I am concerned, I also hate to rely on the relationship to ask for status and work, so you don't have to worry about not giving me a job, it is best to follow the rules of your company itself, for me, work is not something other than affection and ability, I have also saved some savings abroad in recent years, at least I am not short of living expenses when I return to China!”
"What a quick-witted young man!" Jiang Baige secretly praised in his heart, this Zhou Ziyan is indeed very smart, he understood his intentions when he said a few words, he originally wanted to deal with him casually, but he didn't expect to talk about it in a few words, but he admired him quite a lot!
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Baige asked again: "Xiao Zhou, you are a securities broker, playing virtual capital operation, according to our statement, it is 'opportunistic', my Baige Group is involved in a wide range of company projects, covering real estate, catering, department stores, transportation and transportation, film and television culture, etc., all of which are industrial, I have always been a person who does it step by step, and I like to step on the strength of people, so even if you have a high ability in capital operation, it is useless to me, I don't know if you understand what I mean?"
If this Zhou Ziyan is really a talent, Jiang Baige will not be stingy and not give him a chance, but his son Jiang Haoran is too preconceived in his heart, how good can the people who mix with his son be?
However, Jiang Baige's words were a lot more polite, and it was indeed not easy for a person of his status, which was also the reason why his opinion of Zhou Ziyan had changed.
Zhou Ziyan replied without hesitation: " I understand, Mr. Jiang, in the past few years I have been abroad, I have been young and energetic, I have earned some wealth, and my career is a little bit of a small achievement, but after a few years, I am not tired, but my heart is tired, Wall Street is a murder without blood, is a battlefield without gunpowder, some people become rich overnight, some people become beggars overnight, Wall Street can see losers who commit suicide by jumping off buildings every day, after seeing too much of these, I have already had the idea of retreating, every penny I earn may be stained with the blood of those losers, my success is trampled on their corpses, stained with their blood and tears, I am tired, my heart is tired, so I want to return to China to be quiet and quiet!”
"In addition," Zhou Ziyan paused and said, "Since I have chosen to take another path, of course I am also ready to start from scratch, ready to start from a new person!"
It's kind of interesting, I really appreciate this young man!
Jiang Baige smiled and waved his hand: "I like your point of view very much, I like down-to-earth young people, I will talk to you again when I have the opportunity, well, you go down first, come to work in the company tomorrow, I will arrange a position for you to try for a period of time, the company has probationary rules for newcomers, no one is an exception, you can answer with your ability!"
"Okay!" Zhou Ziyan didn't drag the slightest bit of mud and water.
Coming out of Jiang Baige's office, Guan Huijuan, who was wearing glasses, politely sent him to the elevator.
This woman is not sharp, but she is very scheming.
Coming down from the elevator, Jiang Haoran made a few girls tremble at the front desk.
If it were someone else, a few girls would naturally not dare, but this is Baige's "prince", who would dare to accuse him?
"Haoran!" Zhou Ziyan reached out and patted Jiang Haoran on the shoulder, interrupting him to continue to laugh with several female staff.
Jiang Haoran glanced back, stopped smiling and asked him, "Ziyan, how did you talk to my father?"
Zhou Ziyan smiled and said: "It's good, come to work tomorrow, the official job position will be notified tomorrow, and there is a probation period!"
Jiang Haoran waved his hand to a few women at the front desk: "I have time to invite you to dinner, go first!"
Ignoring the expectant and envious expressions on the faces of several girls, he pulled Zhou Ziyan and left.
It wasn't until he walked out of the hall door and stopped on the stairs that Jiang Haoran complained a little annoyed: "My dad too, what kind of probationary period is there, just give your project manager to do it, and make a new project for you to play!"
Zhou Ziyan smiled and said: "Haoran, don't blame your father, it's the same if you change me, it's better to act than to speak, it's better to use practical ability to talk about things at work!"
Jiang Haoran laughed: "Yes, you can use your actions to shock my old man!"
At this time, it was just time for lunch break, and the staff in the building came out one after another, some ordered takeout directly in the company, and some went to a nearby restaurant to eat.
A black Audi A6 drove slowly in the direction of the parking lot, stopped in front of Jiang Haoran and Zhou Ziyan, the window fell, and the face revealed made Zhou Ziyan feel like "his eyes lit up"!
Beauty, pure as an angel's face, rich and imposing, cold as frosty temperament, these different things come together!
"Brother, you go home today to accompany your mother and dad, chat at home, don't go out with your fox friends and dog friends anymore!"
When the girl said "fox friend and dog friend", she obviously glanced at Zhou Ziyan's face, and the implication was that she was talking about him.
This girl must be Jiang Haoran's sister Jiang Xueyan, I heard Jiang Haoran mention that he has a beautiful sister in the United States, but I didn't expect her and Jiang Haoran to be two completely different personalities!
Jiang Haoran drives a Ferrari supercar with millions of dollars, but Jiang Xueyan drives a joint venture A6 with four or five hundred thousand yuan, which is undoubtedly too low-key for Jiang Xueyan's identity!
The people who came in and out of the company greeted Jiang Xueyan and Jiang Haoran respectfully: "Mr. Jiang is good!"
But Zhou Ziyan clearly captured the different visions of these people when they looked at Jiang Haoran and Jiang Xueyan, and they were "perfunctory" and respectful to Jiang Haoran, but they were serious "respectful" to Jiang Xueyan.
Jiang Xueyan nodded her head one by one, and Zhou Ziyan captured the envious eyes of countless men when they watched Jiang Xueyan but did not dare to approach, just like fans seeing a radiant star idol on TV but unable to get close to it!
Jiang Haoran replied to his sister Jiang Xueyan with a smile: "Okay, okay, I know, I'll go back, little sister, come, I'll introduce you, he is ......"
"I still have to leave beforehand!" Jiang Xueyan didn't wait for him to introduce Zhou Ziyan and left with one foot on the accelerator.
Leaving Jiang Haoran very embarrassed, he spread his hands and said, "This girl, cough cough ......."
Zhou Ziyan smiled slightly, and patted Jiang Haoran indifferently: "Haoran, okay, you better listen to your sister's words and go home, I'll go to the hotel to rest first, and come to the company tomorrow morning to report to work." ”
Jiang Haoran saw that Zhou Ziyan didn't mean to complain, and said with a smile: "That's okay, I'll send you to the hotel and go back." ”
Zhou Ziyan shook his head and replied: "No, I'll walk around the neighborhood to familiarize myself with the environment, and then find a nearby hotel to live in." ”
Jiang Haoran pondered for a while and didn't insist anymore, but handed over the car key: "Ziyan, then you can drive my car, it's more convenient to have a car!"
"No!" Zhou Ziyan refused without hesitation, "I don't need a car, don't say I'm not familiar with the environment, even if I'm familiar, I don't want to use a car, it's jammed and there's no place to park, it's comfortable not to drive!"
"That's right!" Jiang Haoran no longer forced the car, went to the parking lot, drove out, handed over the suitcase to Zhou Ziyan, and walked away.
