The lobbying system did not originate in the United States, but it is the Americans who play the most slippery and formal game. When he was studying in the United States, Li Jiaming also studied deeply, and finally came to a conclusion that the hotbed of corruption may be the most suitable system that can be thought of at present.

It was also based on the recognition of this system that Yang Guoqing asked for anonymous voting at the board of directors and gave everyone time to lobby for each other, and Li Jiaming readily agreed. Before leaving the conference room, he also bullied Yang Guoqing for not understanding English, and used a popular English poem to lobby his partners.

I can't understand it, but I can guess the general meaning, and after the poem engraved on the wall by the Jews was retold by Wang Zhidong in Chinese, it couldn't help but make Yang Guoqing feel creepy.

The tiger's whiskers can't be touched, and the tiger's butt can't be touched!

Regardless of the possibility of offending Li Jiaming's ruthless man, Yang Guoqing got straight to the point and said: "Lao Wang, Xiaoma, you are all people who have seen the world in China, do you know what this means?

What does it mean to have seen the world in China? The two people who could hear the words looked at each other and smiled bitterly, if they could be persuaded, could they not be persuaded?

Yang Guoqing also knew that these two people didn't dare to persuade them, and they didn't dare to quarrel with Li Jiaming's bastard easily. But this matter must be resolved, otherwise the matter will make a big fuss, and others will not know what will happen to them, and their own ending will definitely not be good anyway, who will make himself a director of Hanhua? After thinking about it for a while, Yang Guoqing said in a deep voice: "If, what if I say if, what if we veto this resolution?"

How can you veto? With Wang Zhidong's understanding of Li Jiaming, don't look at that kid who usually has a discussion with everyone, and singing against him at a critical time is going to war. Not to mention that he still holds more than 40% of the equity in his hands, even Ren Yanpin and Jiang Yu are only looking forward to him, if he really goes that far, everyone here, including himself, will be expelled from the board of directors by him.

Wang Zhidong and Ma Huateng were silent for a while, and finally Wang Zhidong, who was more pure, reminded them.

"Lao Yang, don't challenge his bottom line, Zhong Chaocheng touched his bottom line back then, and was expelled from Sohu by Zhang Fox. ”

"Zhong Chaocheng didn't suffer a loss, right?"

If it weren't for the fact that he happened to meet Gui Ming and them, and he got Li Jiaming's business plan, Zhong Chaocheng would have been able to turn over? If it weren't for those coincidences, I am afraid that he would have become a small boss in Zhongguancun long ago.

What should I do? Yang Guoqing pondered for a while and then persuaded: "Okay, let's talk about things. Li Fang and Hanhua started cleanly, and they never participated in politics, who will deal with you? Lao Wang, Xiaoma, think about it, one of the people who has fallen off the horse over the years is clean?

If the law can't even protect the interests of people like you, the foundation of the whole society will be shaken, who would dare to take this risk?"

The two were silent, Yang Guoqing was sure that the other party listened, but he was not sure that they would listen to his persuasion, Li Jiaming's bastard prestige was too high, even if he said that the sun rose in the west, these people would find out the theoretical basis that the sun was indeed rising in the west on Venus. There is no way, desperately quitting the board of directors, and I have to press this matter down, Yang Guoqing, who has made up his mind, said helplessly: "That's it, I'll talk to Mr. Kyle and them."

The two sat there and contradicted each other for a while, but finally got up tacitly, and looked at each other and smiled bitterly after leaving the conference room. Everyone knows the seriousness of the problem, but what can it be? Kyle, Yang Zhiyuan, Nakamura, and those two female directors, apart from Li Jiaming himself, who can convince them? Except for Yang Zhiyuan, who quarrels with Li Jiaming from time to time, who doesn't regard Li Jiaming as a god?

God, since it is God, then everything is right, even if it is wrong. The two walked away from Wang Zhidong's office with a wry smile, Ma Huateng hesitated for a long time, and finally whispered: "Brother Dong, I think it's better for us to talk to Jiaming." The board of directors should be a place for everyone to express their views freely, and should not be mixed with personal gains and losses, otherwise it is not conducive to the long-term development of the company. ”

"You want to object?"

After hesitating for a moment, Ma Huateng still admitted: "Yes, no one is a god, and there will always be a day when they make mistakes." I don't know if Jiaming was wrong this time, but I must have the courage to stand up for my opinion. ”

"Also, you are in charge of the whole Lifang, and you do have to have the courage to persevere. ”

"It's the same with you, you lead the Institute. ”

It seemed to be reasonable, and after a long time of contradiction, Wang Zhidong finally sighed, got up and said, "Let's go."

"Do you want to?"

Ma Huateng made a phone call, and Wang Zhidong, who knew Li Jiaming very well, immediately shook his head and warned: "Little Pony, never try to challenge his bottom line!"

Ma Huateng was excited, and hurriedly explained in a low voice: "No, I want to exchange views." ”

Wang Zhidong, who did not want to really anger Li Jiaming, reprimanded: "Wrong, you are in tandem! We will foul first, and we will complain that he will foul him in the future!"

Ma Huateng, whose face was flushed, hurriedly said yes and followed him to Li Jiaming's office.

The arrival of the two was unexpected by Li Jiaming, but it was normal to think about it, if they didn't even have the courage to object, it would really be their own eyes. It's just that this bone joint is now expressing his opposition to himself, Li Jiaming doesn't know whether to be relieved or annoyed, anyway, he has mixed feelings in his heart.

Seeing that Li Jiaming's face was cloudy, the two of them were even more drumming in their hearts, not that they were afraid of anything, but that Li Jiaming had never missed it for so many years, and he had never lost. But the arrow was ready to be sent and had to be sent, Ma Huateng had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Li Dong, I must object." Liberia is a company rooted in China, and if the relationship with the government is stiffened, it will not be conducive to our long-term development."

"Really?"

The gloomy Li Jiaming stared at Wang Zhidong again, Ma Huateng's reasons are tenable, and his opposition is also above board, so this is a difference in official affairs, what about him?

The knife-like gaze swept over, and even Wang Zhidong, who was very close to him, felt empty. After more than 10 years of association with Li Jiaming, Wang Zhidong has watched a small company with 180 employees swell into a multinational company with tens of thousands of employees. But Yang Guoqing is also right, we have no original sin of capital, there is no need to consider the threat that does not exist at all, I will support your decision, but reserve my opinion. ”

This was expected by Ma Huateng, although Wang Zhidong was in charge of the research institute, most of his research directions were guided by Li Jiaming, and he was actually the No. 2 person in substance. This is also expected by Li Jiaming, they had a consensus many years ago, Wang Zhidong is responsible for technology research and development, and he is responsible for the company's management and the battle for the shopping mall. Before he made a decision, Wang Zhidong must have the right to speak, but if he made a decision, Wang Zhidong must obey.

2:2, the four Chinese directors were tied, and the vote of the board of directors was even more suspenseful, but Li Jiaming suddenly felt a sense of fear. Although he decided to leave the United States in exchange for a compromise from the other side, what if the other side did not compromise? The prestige of a politician cannot be provoked, because once he loses his prestige, it means that his authority is no longer authoritarian.
