Chapter 94: I Can Save the Company's Reputation
When I came to the hospital, I went to the service desk for consultation, and then found the ward where Xiao Ai lived on the tenth floor, there was no one else in the room at the moment, and she seemed to have fallen asleep, so I immediately stood outside the ward and called Ji Xiaowei. He told me that he had gone out to buy food for Xiao Ai and would be back later.
I sat down on the chair next to Xiao Ai's bed, her back to me, but I still saw tears on the white pillow, maybe she wasn't sleeping.
I didn't know what to do, I wasn't very good at comforting women, and I just looked out the window on the tenth floor. I saw the city of Nanjing clearly, in fact, whether it is Nanjing or Yangzhou, the lights are bright at night, and the darkness is only the hearts of people, and a farce at the wedding has evolved into a war between human nature and human nature, there is no so-called winner, only the lack of morality and faith
"Senior brother, you put down your things and go back to rest, I want to be quiet."
Xiao Ai mistakenly thought I was Ji Xiaowei, and after I was silent for a while, I replied: "It's me, come and see you"
She didn't turn around, I couldn't see her expression clearly, and I didn't know what she was feeling. After a long time, she replied: "Didn't we say okay, don't we have to meet again?"
"You've always turned your back to me, and you haven't let me see you."
She didn't have words, obviously all those moods of talking and making trouble were gone with this matter.
I said to her again: "I went to see Yuan Zhen during the day."
She finally turned to look at me, and I could see for a moment that her complexion was very bad. At this moment, I believe that in addition to Yuan Zhen, she is the one who suffers the most in this incident.
"Jiang Qiao, you don't have to worry about the affairs of Yuan Zhen and me, it's enough for you to live your own life."
"Yuan is such a poor person, I don't want to see you so sad"
Before I finished speaking, I was interrupted by Xiao Ai: "I'm sad that I am to blame, I just don't want Li Zishan to live so freely with her ugly face, so I instructed Yuan Zhen to do this." He is indeed pitiful, I am the willful, but he is the one who pays the price. ”
I was silent for a long time before replying: "Although you said so, I still don't want to believe that you are a scheming girl, if this is the case, you are not only Yuan Zhen, but also me." ”
"Hehe, can't you see that the classmates around me use all kinds of connections and resources around me every day in order to be able to enter that circle, I live in such an atmosphere every day, I don't understand anything, how can I be simple, so don't look at me with your own eyes anymore, in fact, I'm the same as them."
"If you really want to be like what you said, will Yuan Zhen still like you, although I don't talk to him much, but I know that he is a person with a spiritual cleanliness"
Xiao Ai's emotions suddenly got out of control: "Jiang Qiao, I beg you to stop playing yourself as a savior, all this that Yuan Zhen and I are facing today may be the old path you and Chen Yi will take tomorrow." Can't you see how many hidden dangers there are between you and Chen Yi, if you really love her, you will fight for her wholeheartedly, you are not a man who has the capital to be distracted and do too many things"
I was stunned, I felt that Xiao Ai in front of me was very unfamiliar, and she shouldn't look at things so far, especially since this matter didn't have much to do with her. Perhaps, her world is really not as simple and simple as I see it with the naked eye, she is a woman who can think about things very complicated.
I retreated to the outside of the ward, and then stood by the bay window at the end of the corridor and waited for Ji Xiaowei, who had agreed to meet in advance, and I habitually lit a cigarette and looked at the street lights and vehicles below me and the crowd of people who seemed to have no clear purpose
It was as if I saw a pitiful and hateful self again, a self that was calmer and calmer the lower I was. I asked myself: in the absurd game of life, where is the exit to escape, there is no exit, only an unbreakable bond and an unclear world
After meeting with Ji Xiaowei, I went to another hospital with him to find Eryao, who was still hospitalized, and I persuaded Eryao to accept private, but Eryao always insisted that the medical expenses were paid by the company for him, and he had to obey the company's arrangement and refused to accept my proposal.
In desperation, I went to Jin Qiu alone, a woman who also suffered a lot in this incident, and we made an appointment to meet at a coffee shop downstairs from the company.
She was still a person who didn't like to gossip, and after sitting down, she asked me: "Jiang Qiao, you still came to me for mediation, I have already given you an attitude before, and this matter is not negotiable with me." ”
I looked at her and said, "Actually, I came to you today to talk about cooperationAfter leaving the company, I took over a friend's café and is currently renovating the café. I hope that in the future, many people will see this café as a mecca for courtship, so I thought: away from the business realm, my café is a link from love to marriage. Since I'm courting and you're doing weddings, we should have room for collaboration, right?"
Jin Qiu took a sip of the coffee cup, she didn't say anything, just looked at me with puzzled eyes
"You have to do a big business, I'm just making a small fuss, you don't want to look down on my proposal just because I didn't say it, anyway, I just have an idea now, but there is really no good cooperation plan."
Jin Qiu finally replied: "I haven't denied the possibility of cooperation between us, but I'm so busy now that I don't have the foundation to talk about cooperation with others if I don't solve the crisis at hand." ”
I nodded, also picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then asked Jin Qiu, "We have known each other for so many years, do you regard me Jiangqiao as a friend?"
Jin Qiu looked at me in surprise for a long time before replying, "Why do you suddenly ask that?"
"You answer me first."
"Of course I consider you a friend, we've been friends for years."
"But are we still in the mood to be friends now, think about it, since you came back from abroad, have we had a real exchange, let alone have a meal together or something, what is the problem?"
Jin Qiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and replied: "Everyone is very busy now, where can we have so much time to sit together like before, talk about life, talk about ideals, and talk about those happy or unhappy things in school In fact, we all stand up for ourselves." ”
"I don't think so, if you want, I can still talk to you about ideals and life as before, but you haven't found that you have changed too much You are now less and less human, so little that I feel that the days when we could chat at will were an illusion, and what I know now is not the golden autumn I used to be."
Jin Qiu looked at me, then frowned and lit a lady's cigarette, she took a puff before she said to me: "What the hell do you want to tell me Jiang Qiao, who I knew before, is not a person who likes to beat around the bush. ”
"Let Yuan Zhen go, it's better to settle the grievances than to tie the knot, why bother to make your life like a war all the time, I'm tired of looking at it"
"Jiang Qiao, do you know how much the company has lost because he is so troubled I finally found an investment with a foreign friend, and now my first wedding after returning to China is messed up, what will my friends think of my Jin Qiu's execution ability and the damn contract I signed with Li Zishan, it's even more hellish The company has been busy for so long, not to mention that it didn't make any money, and it had to lose a sum of money inside, and some employees were injured in the conflict. It's all because he took people to make trouble."
I rarely see the performance of emotional loss of control on Jin Qiu's body, but at this moment she is in this state, this matter has completely challenged her bottom line and self-confidence, presumably behind her strong words, there is also a frustrated heart, after all, she is just a woman.
After a moment of silence, I finally said to her, "Don't get excited, we can solve the problems in front of us one by one." Let me tell you, the root cause of this incident is Li Zishan, a woman, if the company was not in jeopardy, your father would not have signed this contract full of overlord clauses with her. And Li Zishan and Mr. Xiao's daughter have always been at odds, knowing that she would go to the wedding to make trouble, so she shamelessly transferred the risk of trouble to the wedding company. In fact, from the perspective of the rules of the entire industry, even if the wedding is all contracted to the wedding company, and there is a disturbance at the wedding site, the loss should not be borne by the wedding company, right?"
"That's right, I wasn't in the country at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have let my dad take over this business."
"Jin Qiu, you are a top student majoring in business law in college, do you have any chance of winning a lawsuit with Li Zishan over that overlord contract, I think: the company should get the wedding service fee from her, not Yuan Zhen."
Jin Qiu's face showed an incredible look, and then replied: "Jiang Qiao, you are crazy, let's not talk about the odds, if you sue the customer in the name of the wedding company, which customer will dare to cooperate with our company in the future, I understand what you mean, although Li Zishan is not a good person, but she always represents the customer's position, once it goes to court, it is likely to evolve into a battle of public opinion between the company and the customer, and then the peers take the opportunity to fall into the ground, the customer does not trust us, and the company will die even worse"
"Then open up the whole truth and show it to the audience, as long as the lawsuit can be won, it means that we are right, is there anything more authoritative than the verdict?"
"What if we lose?"
"Don't think about losing for the time being, okay, you should study the contract carefully first, see if there are any loopholes that can be exploited by us, if there is a chance of winning, then this lawsuit must be fought, and I am sure to save the company's reputation."
Jin Qiu looked at me suspiciously and said, "I'm not afraid of lawsuits, even if I lose, it doesn't matter." What I value most is the reputation of the company, because it is related to whether I can get this investment from my classmates, so are you sure that I can save the reputation of the company?"
I nodded and replied, "I'm sure." ”
"If you can really salvage the company's reputation, I can not pursue Yuan Zhen's responsibility, including the economic losses he has indirectly brought to our company."
