Chapter 62: A long-lost business job

New York's Chinatown is very scattered, its buildings, no high-rise bricks, most of them are wooden structures, and red and yellow have become the main color background of the whole block. The New York headquarters of the company is located at the entrance of Chinatown, the appearance is not glamorous, it looks very inconspicuous, if it is not for the huge IS English sign on the roof, few people know that this is a market value of tens of billions, in recent years to become famous IT industry leader. It doesn't have the sturdiness of the European branch 'Black Tower' (the black spire in Hamburg) or the 'Tulip' of the Asian branch under construction, but it brings together many IT talents and some outstanding managers from Europe and the United States.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Mexican salsa music plays in the spacious bedroom, which is the sound of a timed theater. The moment the sound sounded, the shutters on the floor-to-ceiling window on the right side of the giant bed began to rise automatically, allowing the warm sunlight rarely seen in winter to gradually fill the room. Xu Canhao turned sideways to the window, felt some dazzling sunlight, turned over, still closed his eyes, thinking about last night's events, and sorting out the problems he had to face today. After a while, he opened his eyes suddenly, jumped out of bed, swayed to the music, twisted his hips, and walked out of the bedroom. Turning around, I opened the refrigerator, picked up a bottle of perrier on two fingers, poured a glass, and held it in my hand. Backwards, stepping into space, to the living room. Pick up the phone, call the internal line, and tell me that breakfast can be delivered. He took two more steps forward, took a step back, and walked into the gym with a samba.

At 8:40, I left the gym and took a shower with a comfortable song.

At 9:13 a.m., I put on my bathrobe and switched the speaker to the radio station. Sitting on the bar chair with Erlang's legs crossed, solving the breakfast of Chinese and Western.

At 9:30, Lehmann, the secretary of the headquarters, came to the door on time with the new beautiful assistant to report the recent work and today's itinerary. The two read outside the locker room, and Xu Canhao chose the right clothes, leather shoes, belts, watches, etc. according to the itinerary in the house.

The upper body wears a smart and unique style, gradient gray and black suit. The sleeves of the shirt were rolled up to the wrists, and the blue checkered lining was turned up, revealing the gray checkered handkerchief in the left breast pocket. A slim-fitting pure white V-neck shirt with a dark brown Dunhill custom belt tied around the waist with large spikes. Lower body, a simple and comfortable pair of black casual trousers, the soles of the feet are stepped on, and black and white pointed scalp shoes. Pick up another bottle of Chanel Azure Eau de Parfum, spray it in the air, and step into the mist yourself, bathing your whole body in the woody fragrance. Before going out, he smiled at himself in the mirror, fiddled with his bangs twice, and then pushed the door out.

"Good morning, my dear Mr. Lehmann." Xu Canhao greeted with a smile, and the two people in front of the door nodded in return. "Oh? There's also a beautiful woman. In the morning, seeing beautiful things is always a joy to see! In other words, it won't be, Lyman, you, use power for personal gain, right? Xu Canhao walked up to the two of them, first praised the new assistant, and then ridiculed the serious British gentleman's secretary.

"Boss, you know who I am." Sure enough, Lyman was unmoved, and then introduced him: "This is the new arrival, your assistant, Miss Emile. She is also your alumnus, Undergraduate in Humanities Resources, Master of Science in Nursing, and is 27 years old. ”

"It's a pleasure to meet you, beautiful Miss Emile, and I hope we get along well in the future." Xu Canhao hurriedly straightened his attitude and shook the hand of the beautiful assistant.

The emir looked a little unnatural or nervous, and his body stiffened slightly, and after reaching out to shake it, he withdrew his small hand first. "Hello, Mr. Albert, it's a pleasure to meet you. I... I... Loved it... Your song..."

Xu Canhao always kept smiling, waiting for the next step from the emir. I don't want to, the other party hesitated for a moment, and then he was silent. And the peculiar thing is that her neck is red, but her face is not red. She is not tall, she is dressed in decent professional clothes, the heels are not too high, and she is wearing a blue and white striped neck scarf, which contrasts with the red neck, which looks very cute at this time. Xu Canhao and Lyman both looked at her, so ashamed that the emir hated to take the door and leave. Xu Canhao snorted, and when he walked to the staircase first, Lyman also followed, and Emir let out a long breath and followed quickly with his head down.

"Hey, Lyman, why are you introducing her age?" Xu Canhao secretly asked the British secretary behind him.

"Uh... Me, I thought you would want it. Xu Canhao was sure that he felt a trace of embarrassment and embarrassment from Lyman's face. He nodded noncommittally, but in his heart he secretly despised this, a tall and old-fashioned British man.

Downstairs, Xu Canhao sat down at his desk, woke up the standby computer, and asked Emir to make two cups of coffee. "Zack, how was you doing in the design department?" Mark Zuckerberg, the original historical founder of Facebook, became an intern at the company in June this year. At that time, the chief examiner of the interview, Simpson, made a special call to tell Xu Canhao afterwards to introduce this young man he liked very much. Solid-based, creative, ambitious, but haughty, only suitable for staying in the design department where there are a lot of weirdos and plenty of free space (the people in this department are independent workers when they don't have a designated job. When a person has a good creative work, he can form a team by himself, put the work into practice, list the plan, come up with the actual feasibility and investigation book, etc., and hand it directly to Simpson or Xu Canhao. After passing, you can ask the company for investment alone, or you can hand it over to the company and get bonuses and commissions directly. )。 This is the evaluation and suggestion given by Simpson, Xu Canhao also agreed after listening to it, he is looking forward to whether the original founder of Facebook can still shine here.

"Like a fish in water. Now moved to the attic, leading a small team of four, and is recently competing with 4 for picture resources. In addition, he also put forward his opinions to the company, hoping to cooperate with Amazon to share network resources and win the other party's film database. You know, IMDB was in their hands, and according to your previous plan, it would have been too expensive to buy the rights to the library from a regular studio. Lyman said methodically as he stood at his desk.

"So did the company start to get in touch? I think the other side should be happy to cooperate, after all, we have customer resources and a safety net comparable to the Ministry of Defense is something that many people dream of. Xu Canhao said, while constantly switching between the pages of the IS intranet and the official website on the computer, checking internal and external information.

"Yes, a preliminary intention has been reached and Ms. Orga's group is following up." Lyman paused, took out a document from the folder in his hand, and said: "Recently, some advocates of retail investors (small Internet companies) (people who do not advocate registering on the Internet with their real identities) have deliberately hacked into the company's security system under the leadership of some malicious people. Moreover, there were also marchers who directly pointed out IS and demonstrated to us, which affected the intention of website users to use it and caused some confusion. As he spoke, he put the document in front of Xu Canhao. Here's the information for those companies. ”

Xu Canhao glanced at it and ignored it. "Come to think of it, they don't have the ability to break into our system, otherwise you wouldn't be so calm. As for the parade or something, don't bother with it, the state will help solve it, or it won't be long before these petty guys will understand that if you don't use the real-name system, you will never be able to get on the stage. For those in power, the money jar that is helpful to them is a good helper. Oh, thanks. Xu Canhao smiled and nodded to the emir who put down the coffee, and then said to Lyman: "The information sent back last time made the people in the business department step up their preparations. The domain name in South Korea has been decided, and I just have to wait for the personnel transfer on the company's side, and the plan will have to go live there early next year, so keep an eye on them. Xu Canhao is very concerned about Asia, and told Lehmann very seriously, let him be careful, and urge the people in several relevant departments.

"Yes, boss." Lyman nodded, opened the folder in his hand and said, "There are still 40 minutes left, and the noon date will begin." At least one of you and Mr. Simpson will have to go to the appointment, and the other is a Chase Manhattan executive, and they will need to get inside information from both of them in advance for this listing. ”

Xu Canhao stared at the screen and nodded, indicating that he would go, and he had to go. Since the second round of financing in the first half of 02, Morgan has been regarded as the largest creditor of IS. Therefore, whether it is the right to dialysis in official faces, or the ventilation in private meetings, this is all as it should be. I want to think that the 150 million that came in at the beginning has become more than 26 billion now, plus the value-added after listing, these are enough to make the honeymoon period between Chase and IS longer. Besides, Simpson has gone to MIT for further study, and he has been busy with love recently, so Xu Canhao can't disturb other people's good things.

"Hmm~ By the way, how is the network marketing plan that Pomiret asked to do?" Xu Canhao took a sip of coffee, a little hot, took a tissue to wipe his mouth, and asked.

Lyman's face was a little strange, and he held back for a long time before he spoke under the posture of Xu Canhao holding his arm and waiting for him to answer. "Italians are picky and more romantic than French, and they are always unhappy with the definition of love in planning. Boss, I think, it's time for us to hire a creative director, preferably female. ”

"Who's in charge now?" Xu Canhao didn't get to the bottom of it, traced the content of the plan, and continued to ask.

Lyman choked back a sentence with some poignant: "Yes, Mr. Simpson is personally responsible." ”

"What!? Haha, no wonder, no wonder. Xu Canhao almost didn't laugh. You asked a person who had never been in love very much, with a group of tech nerds, to design love-themed jewelry advertising planning, Xu Canhao didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't think about it. "Send me the previous plan, and I will solve the problem of the marketing team as soon as possible." Xu Canhao said with a smile.

"Okay, boss, I'll ask them to pass the information over." After Lyman finished speaking, he couldn't hold back his laughter and turned to leave.

After Lyman left, within a few minutes, Xu Canhao began to rummage through the alternatives to cigarettes—snacks. I searched upstairs and downstairs, but found nothing. Thinking that there was a date at noon, I was even more determined to get something to eat to fill my stomach, otherwise, I would lose my stomach for the sake of etiquette. Press the phone and call the emir outside. "Emir, help me buy a roast duck in Chinatown, remember to ask the boss to chop it and ask for chili sauce, thank you. Oh, and bring a milkshake along the way, that's all. With that, he sat back down in front of his computer and began to browse various websites.

"Hey, this one seems to be very popular." Xu Canhao muttered to himself. The video in front of him called the female version of "Daylight" was pinned to the top of the music column of his homepage, with more than 70,000 hits, and he clicked on it curiously. "This, this can't be Perry, right?" Xu Canhao lay in front of the screen violently, his eyes wide open to identify the undressed girl singing in the recording studio in the screen. Hurriedly picked up the phone at hand and called Daisy's office, the assistant told her that she was not in the office, and called the manager of the broker team under him, Mullen.

"Hey, hello. Here are hundred..."

"Hello, Mullen, now listen to me. Have you ever watched a video of my "Daylight" covered online? ”

"Eber? Oh, I haven't seen it, there is..."

"If you haven't seen it, go see it! After reading it, immediately give me the information to confirm the girl, and pass it to me. Also, send your people to find her, and wait for my notice, you must do it! Xu Canhao hurriedly roared, making the people on the other side busy for a while. While answering the phone, Malen searched the video, and used gestures to ask the assistant to write down the information, and the people around him immediately began to run. In less than five minutes, Xu Canhao received a fax, and he began to confirm his identity information without caring about the roast duck at hand. "That's right, it's her. In Los Angeles, I knew I should have visited in person. Teacher, Glenballard, Chacha. Xu Canhao quickly logged on to Google to find information about Teacher Katy. Rolling the pulley, dial Mullen's phone, "These two people dig into the company as much as possible, send someone to contact you first, and then you can discuss it with Daisy, and let me know when there is any progress, that's all." ”

"Whew~" Xu Canhao, who let out a sigh, took a big sip of chocolate milkshake and began to compete with the greasy roast duck, and it was not much time before his lunch.

I finally understood why those who were shouting for tickets finally called out so slippery, turned into slogans, and even processed them artistically. Sell and shout in front of the stall~
