As soon as Chen Chen spoke, Li Yuan knew what she meant. Vertices

As she said just now, no one is stupid, at most they are just pretending to be confused.

When Li Yuan gave the "big gift", he knew that Chen Chen would definitely sell himself, and he also knew the result of being sold.

Obviously, Chen Chen was hinting that he wanted to join his team, and aside from her personal thoughts, I am afraid that it was mainly the instructions from above.

In short, it needs to be a nail by Li Yuan's side.

Li Yuan is happy to see this happen.

The trip to the United States made Li Yuan understand a truth, if he doesn't want to move forward according to the rules, inexplicable out-of-line behavior is indispensable, which will only make the big people who are watching from afar feel uneasy.

Instead of this, it is better to push the boat with the current and take the initiative to arrange an eyeliner for them.

Chen Chen is the perfect candidate to act as eyeliner.

She is capable and strong, and having her as an eyeliner is acceptable to both parties.

Of course, the term eyeliner is not very good, and Li Yuan thinks it is more appropriate to describe it as "microphone" or "buffer belt".

With Chen Chen's voice in the center, it can effectively reduce the misunderstanding and friction between Li Yuan and the high-level, and even make his voice heard when necessary, which is a mutually beneficial thing.

For example, the "Yugoslav incident" this time.

The NATO bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia is an indelible pain in the hearts of the Chinese people, and as a reborn, Li Yuan certainly does not want to watch this happen.

The key is how to intervene.

It is certainly not possible to say that "NATO will bomb the Chinese embassy," because this is only the result of various complex factors, not an inevitable event.

What Li Yuan needs to do is only to reveal an approximate time node, and professionals will make careful arrangements on this basis.

It is true that China is not strong enough in terms of military and diplomatic strength at the moment, but this is more reflected in the relatively lagging response to the international situation, and once it is prepared in advance, it will inevitably lead to different results.

Being prepared is not just talking.

……

Chen Chen was still waiting for Li Yuan's answer.

Li Yuan has some consideration about how to place Chen Chen, but the key depends on her own ideas.

"You're really talented to teach, and I really hope you can help me. As for what you can do."

Li Yuan stretched out two fingers and said: "Overseas business will not be the focus of work in the short term, but someone also needs to preside over the overall situation, of course, mainly business public relations and personnel work, Feng Wan went to the United States this time to do this work." She won't stay in the U.S. for long, and someone needs to take over the job. ”

"Who I am...... Not a good fit to go back to the United States. ”

It would be impossible for Chen Chen to return to the United States, and that would be meaningless.

Li Yuan also understood this, and then said his true thoughts.

"The other way is to do what you do. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I'm going to set up an intelligence unit to collect and analyze all kinds of business intelligence, and if you're interested, I'd like you to preside over it. ”

Chen Chen's eyes lit up and said, "Can you elaborate on it?"

Li Yuan stretched out his hand to Zhao, and Zhao took out the loose-leaf book from the briefcase under his feet and handed it to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan flipped to the pre-drafted charter and said, "More details still need to be discussed by everyone, I will only talk about the general idea...... The main responsibility of this department is to collect, collate and analyze business intelligence, but it is not limited to intelligence, it is essentially a hub department. For example, assist the marketing department to conduct market research and assist the human resources department

Talent review, company confidential management, internal supervision...... Overall, it's a lot of work, and it's a housekeeper's job......"

"It sounds a bit complicated, and I'm not sure if I can do it. ”

"You don't have to stress too much, you can try to put the frame up first. Li Yuan motioned for her to relax: "The reason why so many things are stuffed into the same department is that the key is that there is a lack of talent, and when the time comes, it will be separated." Also, the intelligence side of the work is less urgent, and you can think of this department as a secretariat. ”

"After saying so much, the result is to be your secretary?"

"It's a great opportunity to exercise. ”

"Why do I think you're just trying to be lazy?"

"No way, I'm very busy. ”

Li Yuan spread his hands and said: "I have been in the United States for so long, not to mention the final exam, I missed the Spring Festival, I have to study hard after I go back, otherwise it will be a tragedy if I can't get into high school......"

“……”

Chen Chen looked at Li Yuan speechlessly, for a long time, sighed, and said, "Okay, I'll try to do it, don't blame me if you can't do it well." ”

……

On the afternoon of March 1, the plane arrived at Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport.

After getting off the plane, Li Yuan left the airport under the escort of more than a dozen armed police officers and boarded the vehicle to greet him.

Sitting in the car, Li Yuan removed his tie, threw Zhang Wei a roll of his eyes, and said, "Don't make such a fuss when you come back." ”

"There's a beginning and an end. ”

Zhang Wei smiled and handed Li Yuan a cigarette and said, "It's hard work." ”

Li Yuan took the cigarette and asked, "I used to talk to my mother on the phone, and she is now in Shanghai?"

"Hmm. Zhang Wei nodded and said, "I was about to tell you this." What we told her was that you went to the United States to participate in a high school student exchange event, and you should not say it yourself. Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, I won't bother you, and I will have something to look for you in two days. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Someone wants to meet you. ”

"It's not going to be a big guy again, is it?"

"You guessed it. ”

"Alas......"

Li Yuan covered his forehead and said, "I've already returned to my original form, so I don't need to make a pilgrimage, right?"

"When you went to the United States, you almost didn't meet the president of the United States, why didn't you see you at that time?"

"I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid of trouble. Besides, in the United States, it is a fox and a fake tiger, can it be the same?"

"Anyway, I informed you, even if it's in front of my brother's face, you will give me a good performance. Zhang Wei patted Li Yuan on the shoulder and said temptingly: "If you perform well, at least you will save ten years of hard work." ”

……

The next day, in a villa on the Bund.

Zhang Wei and Chen Chen sat on the sofa in a regular manner, and opposite the two of them, sat an old man with a resolute temperament.

The old man looked at the document in his hand seriously, and after a while, he looked up and smiled: "It's a little interesting." ”

After a pause, the old man asked, "What do you think?"

Zhang Wei motioned to Chen Chen to speak first with his eyes.

Chen Chen said: "Just looking at his performance during this time, even if it is measured by the standards of adults, it is impeccable, except for genius, I can't think of any other adjectives." ”

The old man nodded and turned his gaze to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei coughed and said, "I don't have much contact with him, and if I have to say it, it's a bit scary." ”

The old man asked with interest, "Terrible?"

Zhang Wei nodded and said, "His psychology is too mature. I looked into his upbringing, and his personality changed a lot in the second half of last year, it was very abrupt, and it felt like a different person.

"Probably because of family factors. Chen Chen said: "It's not strange that you suddenly open up after being suppressed for a long time. ”

This can only be explained. Zhang Wei said helplessly: "I have asked several experts in psychology, and they have all come to the same conclusion. ”

"The human heart is the most difficult to fathom. ”

The old man took a sip of his teacup and picked up the information again.

After a while, the old man asked again, "What is he doing now?"

"Shopping with his mom. ”

The old man nodded, and suddenly smiled.

"This kid is pretty good. ”

Zhang Wei and Chen Chen looked at each other, not understanding why the old man suddenly said this.

Zhang Wei asked tentatively: "Do you always have too high an opinion of him?"

"Is it high? not high. The old man threw the documents on the table and said, "You two are orphans, aren't you?"

The two nodded in response.

The old man said: "I have always believed that a person who values family affection, even if it is bad, will not be bad. ”

"He doesn't look like a dutiful son. Zhang Wei pouted, "Don't you see how he treated his father?"

"Believe it or not, their father and son will surely be reconciled in the future. The old man smiled and diverted the topic: "In addition to personality problems, what other problems are there?"

"There are a lot of questions. Zhang Wei said: "His economic talent, vision, and the source of the information provided to Chen Chen before, many things cannot be explained. ”

"That's not what I'm asking, is there a problem with the position?"

"For now...... No. ”

"Is there any evidence that he is involved with foreign forces?"

"Nope. It is certain that this is the first time he has gone abroad, and he has never been in contact with foreigners before, and my people are investigating his interpersonal relationships, and they have not yet finished sorting out the ......"

"No need to check. ”

The old man waved his hand: "Everyone has their own secrets. I see that his disciples of Guan Xuedao will not have a bad character when they think about it. It's a pity ......"

The old man sighed, "It's a pity that this kid is bent on getting into the eyes of money, which is very bad, I will talk about him when I go back." ”

The old man reproached on his lips, but with a smile in his eyes, he was obviously not angry about it.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei roughly knew what to expect, and asked, "You always plan to absorb him into the organization?"

"That's the idea, what do you think?"

"I've thought about it before, but he's a little older, and his value orientation may not change......"

"Why do you want to change it?" the old man asked rhetorically and said with a smile: "It's not a good thing that young people have personalities. ”

"Uh......"

"Do you want to ask me why I think so highly of him?"

Zhang Wei bluntly asked, "Why?"

"Because he'll make money. ”

"Uh......" Zhang Wei didn't expect this reason. If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand that the funds in the organization have always been tight, and talents like Li Yuan who can make money are indeed rare.

Zhang Wei opened his mouth and asked hesitantly, "Aren't you afraid that he will pretend to be a public servant?"

"What is private? What is public? As long as the general direction is correct, private is also public. The old man shook his head and said: "Of course, the necessary restraints are also indispensable, don't say that you are afraid, I am also afraid of accidentally raising a monster......"

After chatting some more gossip, seeing that the old man was tired, Zhang Wei and Chen Chen got up to say goodbye.

After the two left, the old man walked into the study alone, picked up a book on the desk with the fragrance of ink, rubbed it lightly with his hand, and smiled: "Let me see, how will you plan for the future?"
