Chapter 192: Drifting Away (6)
Mooney is dead!
For Li Jiaming's instant call, he frantically called back like grasping a life-saving straw, and ran to California to find it when he couldn't get through. After the defendant Li Jiaming returned to China for vacation, he asked for his phone number unsuccessfully, and ran to ask his mentor to prove it, but he was still ruthlessly refused. Anxious and depressed, Mooney went to a bar to get drunk, only to get drunk on the street at -15 degrees Celsius.
An ordinary teaching assistant at MIT is not well-known in the academic community and school, and there is no suspicion of murder, and even his family does not question anything, and a life is quietly gone, and he is suspected of plagiarizing academic achievements.
Li Jiaming is back.
After spending the Lantern Festival in her hometown, she also sent her little sister to study at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts, and accompanied her to play on the island given to her as a dowry for a week before returning to the United States.
βhat?β
Tony, who didn't attend the funeral, had a very bad face and frighteningly dark eyes, but calmly recounted as if he was reporting something unrelated: "The police have detected a large amount of alcohol in his body, and the bar staff have also proved that he drank a lot of spirits." On those days, the night temperature in Palo Alto City was as low as -15 degrees, and he was drunk and frozen to death in the streets, and the body was found by a Stanford student. β
Li Jiaming, who had just returned home, was silent, walked straight to the wine cabinet by the fireplace, poured himself a glass of whiskey, and then waved his hand, and Tony, who felt guilty, turned away. Tony's actions are very cold and immoral, but it does not mean that he is inhuman, although he does not believe in God, and things do not start by him, but a living life is lost because of his mismanagement.
Li Jiaming, who was sitting on the sofa in front of the fireplace, also felt a little guilty, although the result was not caused by him, and the matter was also Tony's assertion, but Mooney was his friend. He didn't want Mooney to ruin his reputation, he just wanted a piece of the pie for the creation of this theory, but he was responsible for the consequences. As a subordinate and personal assistant, Tony is just seeking benefits for himself and the team, and may be unscrupulous, but how can there be completely clean people under the interests?
But it was only guilt, and if Mooney wasn't his friend, he wouldn't even have a little guilt. The views of the two papers are similar, and it can only be said that it is a coincidence, and it can only be said that he is unlucky, and he has two subordinates who have no moral bottom line.
That's all!
However, it seems that this is not right. In his life, he has done a fair and upright life, pursued fairness and fairness in everything, and there was no place to be unpopular in his private morality. Even sent Lao Jiu and mosquitoes to the western sky, that is the way for the two of them to die, and they did not wronged them for half a point.
After drinking a glass of wine in silence, Li Jiaming thought about it again and called Wharton and Daniel Zhang over. He never believed in the so-called loyalty and betrayal, and Wharton and Tony were able to trample on the moral bottom line for themselves, because they gave them enough rewards, not only materially but also spiritually.
βBoss?β
'Dang', Li Jiaming, who was sitting at the bar, poured two glasses of fine whiskey and handed them over, and touched the glasses with Wharton and Daniel Zhang who rushed over. When the two of them saw that he didn't speak, they didn't say anything, and drank with him in silence.
After drinking a glass of wine, Li Jiaming ordered: "The office currently occupied by the Foundation will be assigned to the Foundation." In the future, Foundation employees should no longer work in the company. β
This is easy, the company's office building is the private property of Boss, but I'm afraid it doesn't mean that, Wharton, who is also the manager of the legal department of HH company, asked, "What do you mean?"
"Tony is very capable and has full authority over the affairs of the Foundation."
Tony passed the test, and Wharton nodded, knowingly, "Ok, I'll do it as soon as I get back."
"Well, now let's talk about your business."
Li Jiaming talked about the things he talked about with Mao Tong and Xigou that day, and asked: "Yong, sooner or later, the two countries will face each other, although my judgment is 'fight but not break', but we must make all preparations." Face/book is doing a great job, and with the current trend likely to succeed, we need to be more on the safe side. I mean, do you understand?"
This is just a statement, not to mention that Daniel Zhang does not believe it, even Li Jiaming himself does not believe it. Daniel Zhang, who worked hard to build the company, but wanted to give up power, as the company's chairman and CEO, instinctively resisted and said cautiously: "Boss, will the two countries really confront each other?"
Li Jiaming casually reported a string of data, and then used oral calculations to derive, which surprised Daniel Zhang, who was no longer familiar with the domestic situation. In just a few years, the domestic GDP is about the same as Japan's?
But this is still a rhetoric, after a little thought, Daniel Zhang, who knew Li Jiaming well in the past, retreated and said: "Boss, what do you mean?"
Slick!
Li Jiaming laughed and scolded in his hometown dialect, and suggested: "Give up the position of chairman to him, you yourself become a naturalized citizen as soon as possible, it is best to marry an American lady and have a bunch of American children, what do you think?"
"Hehe", Daniel Zhang, who was called, finally relieved his heart, laughed a few times, and echoed: "I suggest that Mr. Harton be the chairman, what do you think?"
Wharton is overjoyed, this is Boss's official confirmation that he is the company's number two!
They are all smart people, Li Jiaming smiled and said: "You guys go and discuss it yourself, Harton, you will help me draft a gift document, I want to give my sister an island." β
βOkβ.
Daniel Zhang also got up to say goodbye with interest, leaving them to continue drinking.
Li Jiaming called Wharton over, in addition to awarding awards, he also wanted to deal with the aftermath. He believed that with the ability of two doctors, it must be seamless to set up a small game, otherwise it would not be possible for Mooney's family to believe in the innocence of his father (husband) and at the same time think that it was just a coincidence. But crocodiles still have tears, and as a successful person, they also need to have compassion, and they are indeed innocent.
"Harton, accompany me to Boston?"
βNoβ.
Wharton immediately refused, arguing that the Boss still didn't fully understand the United States.
"Boss, do you know where Mooney died?"
Li Jiaming suddenly realized that he had ignored Tony's statement just now, Mooney died in Palo Alto City, and found that he was a student of his alma mater. This means that before he died, he begged Professor Spencer, but was ruthlessly refused, and froze to death on the streets near the school.
"Do you understand?"
Li Jiaming, who was sipping wine, nodded silently, secretly lamenting the indifference of Americans, no wonder when he expressed his respect to the professor, he seriously warned himself that the relationship between students and teachers is just to be served and served. Perhaps the old man Spencer subconsciously wished that Mooney had plagiarized his academic achievements, because he was super-rich and might donate more to the school in the future, and even if Mooney was successful, it would not bring substantial benefits to the school.
But after Li Jiaming nodded, he insisted: "No, I have to go to Boston." β
Wharton was in a hurry and hurriedly said, "Boss?"
"You don't understand", as soon as Li Jiaming replied, the mobile phone on the bar rang, and he hurriedly picked it up to answer the phone.
