The agreement was signed, and of course the next thing to celebrate. This time, France Telecom did not refuse, but happily accepted Zhou Liwen's hospitality.

Not extravagant, but very characteristic and atmosphere of the small banquet so that the French side is very satisfied, and after the meal, everyone drank tea and chatted for a while, to see that the time is not early, the French side proposed to leave.

Because the dining point was far away from their collapsed hotel, Zhou Liwen specially arranged a car for them to return to the hotel, at this time, Shi Wenti yì Zhou Liwen drove her back to the hotel, Zhou Liwen immediately smiled and said that he was very honored, and took the initiative to open his car door and invite the other party to get in the car.

"I booked a ticket back to France tomorrow afternoon."

As soon as the car started, Shi Wen spoke.

"Tomorrow afternoon? Aren't you going back to Shanghai? ”

She shook her head and said, "If I don't go back, I'll go directly from Xiangjiang, and besides, the domestic affairs are all done, and it's not interesting to go back." If it hadn't been for the delay in negotiations with you for so many days, maybe I should have gone back a month ago. ”

Zhou Liwen nodded silently, thought for a while, and said, "Then I'll send you tomorrow." ”

Shi Wen smiled: "There's no need for this, the hotel has already arranged a car, and Bertrand will go with me." But don't worry, Dior will stay and continue to coordinate the work later, and it will not affect our cooperation. ”

"So...... I'll wish you a safe journey. Zhou Liwen didn't know what was going on, and suddenly he was a little empty, and he said with a wry smile.

"Thank you......."

Shi Wen replied softly, and then neither of them spoke, one focused on driving the car, while the other looked at the street scene that was about to pass outside the car window.

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Liwen coughed lightly and said, "By the way, thank you for reminding me that day." ”

Shi Wen was slightly stunned and quickly understood what Zhou Liwen was referring to, she raised her hand and stroked the short in her ear, and said with a smile: "No thanks, it seems that you have already got the news." However, the success of our negotiations is not only a good thing for you, but also for me, according to the current popular words in China, it can be called a win-win situation. What's more, we are still old classmates, and I, an old classmate, can't I pit you without heart or lungs, right? ”

"Hehe, that's just as well." Zhou Liwen laughed, just this afternoon the news from the Taiwan Strait finally came, indeed, as Shi Wen reminded, hTc has sent a business delegation to Europe, ready to negotiate cooperation with several major European telecom operators. It is said that in order to open up the mobile phone market, hTc has prepared unusually favorable conditions, although it is not known exactly what hTc will do, but among the operators of their choice, France Télécomm is on its list.

However, now that it is no longer a threat to Zhou Liwen, the agreement between orz and France Telecom has been signed, and even if hTc offers better terms of cooperation, it is impossible for France Telecom to tear up the agreement and cooperate with hTc instead. Western countries, especially world-renowned telecom operators such as France Telecom, would never have done such a stupid thing, and it would be difficult for them to bear not only the huge compensation for breaking the contract, but also the credibility of the business community.

How did Shi Wen know about hTc's movements, Zhou Liwen didn't ask, thinking that she naturally had her channels. However, Zhou Liwen believed that Shi Wen did not report the matter to the French headquarters, but quietly concealed it to buy time for negotiations. It is precisely in this way that after the end of the negotiations, the French headquarters confirmed the approval as soon as possible, and today's agreement will be signed. If the news of hTc has reached the French headquarters, then Zhou Liwen will definitely face the temporary shelving of the other party, maybe the two sides will be able to continue to cooperate, but France Telecom will definitely use hTc as a bargaining chip, trying to squeeze more commercial value out of orz.

Don't think that foreigners are honest and abide by the rules. If you really think so, you will definitely suffer in international business negotiations. Westerners talk about honesty and rules based on contracts, and in the absence of a contract, they are no worse than anyone else in the means of business. What's more, compliance with the contract is not only the basis of credibility, but also the protection of legal terms. Foreigners are not stupid, and they understand the truth of shopping around.

"When will you be back?"

"I don't know, maybe a few months, maybe next year, or the year after. I'm not as easy as you, you're the boss, and I still have to work for people. ”

"If you go back to China, remember to let me know in advance."

"Uh-huh......." Shi Wen nodded in response, thought for a while, and said, "If you have the opportunity, you can also come to Europe, and I will take you to see my village when the time comes." ”

"No problem, but it's not possible anytime soon." Zhou Liwen said with a smile: "Wait a while, I will definitely be a guest, and you, the tour guide, don't forget to take me to experience the grape festival in the French countryside." ”

Shi Wen smiled and agreed, although Zhou Liwen didn't say the reason, but she knew that Zhou Liwen was indeed unlikely to go abroad in the near future, because his wife was about to give birth, and he would definitely be by his wife's side at this time.

Thinking of this, Shi Wen's expression flashed a hint of loneliness, and she looked sideways at Zhou Liwen who was driving the car, and looked at it from the angle she was sitting on, and happened to clearly look at Zhou Liwen's eyes that were as bright as black gems under the light under the thick eyebrows, as well as the high nose bridge and slightly thick but very manly lips, coupled with the angular facial contours, I couldn't help but be a little stupid for a while.

At first, Zhou Liwen didn't pay attention, but after a while, he felt the gaze of the eyes around him looking at him, and turned his head slightly, and now Shi Wen was actually looking at him.

"What? Ash on my face? Zhou Liwen subconsciously raised his right hand and touched his face.

"Nope." Shi Wen said with emotion: "I'm just thinking, the scene of studying back then, this time flies so fast, so many years have passed in a flash, sometimes when I close my eyes, I will flash the scenes of high school in my mind." I remember when you were seated not far in front of me, and I could see you every day when I sat in my seat at school. Now look at your appearance, in addition to being more masculine, it's the same as before. ”

"This is true, I said on the day of the party that I have no good qualities as a person, just reverse growth and maintain youth and vitality. Besides, you haven't changed much, you're still as beautiful as before, and I'll tell you something quietly, do you know what you remember the most? ”

"What is it?" Shi Wen asked with great interest.

Zhou Liwen said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Biology, dissecting the little white rabbit, who is crying so much, with a handful of tears and a handful of snot?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Shi Wenqiao's face suddenly turned red, and she glared at Zhou Liwen a little angrily, and then she covered her mouth and laughed, at this moment she seemed to think of the original scene again, she was indeed crying very sadly that day, and even wiped her tears and ran to the biology teacher to beg not to dissect the little white rabbit anymore, the little white rabbit was so pitiful, she was willing to buy all the remaining little white rabbits with pocket money, and the teacher showed a strange expression of surprise and laughter in front of her.

"It was stupid ...... then." I don't know what she was thinking, she laughed for a while and said such a sentence with resentment, and then shook her head and sighed: "But I was happy at that time, where there are endless things and countless troubles every day like now." ”

"Yes, I don't know what it's like to be young and sad." Zhou Liwen also sighed: "When I was a child, I always felt that life was slow, and I always hoped that I could grow up as soon as I opened my eyes." At that time, my mind was full of growth, and my parents would not have to worry about their heads and feet, and they would be able to make their own money, let alone go to school every day and face those homework and exam papers that could never be completed. But when I really grew up, I realized that this world is not as beautiful as I imagined, Zhao Chuan's song, have I heard it as a little bird? There is a lyric in it, which is more important, the pressure of life or the dignity of life? This is the world of adults, and this is the world we are facing. ”

Shi Wen smiled and hummed softly, singing this song by Zhao Chuan.

"Sometimes I feel like a little bird, I want to fly but I can't fly high, maybe one day I perch on a branch but become the target of a hunter, I fly to the blue only to find myself helpless ...... again."

As her singing sounded softly, Zhou Liwen couldn't help but follow along, the more the two sang louder and louder, the more they sang, the more energetic they became, especially when they sang to the high tide, where did they care what tone and melody, and roared like a mouthful.

When the song was finished, the car happened to arrive at the hotel, Zhou Liwen stopped the car, glanced at Shi Wen, and the two laughed together.

The two fools laughed ungracefully in the car, and leaned back with such a smile that if a passer-by passed by at this time, they would almost have thought they were two psychos. Haha laughed for a while, and everyone felt much more relaxed, as if all the worries and pressures had been poured out from the song just now.

Get out of the car, go around the front of the car to the right, and take the initiative to open the door for the lady.

"Tomorrow will be a safe journey." When it came to separation, Zhou Liwen still repeated the previous sentence.

"Thank you." Shi Wen also replied, and looked at him with a smile in front of Zhou Liwen when she got off the station: "How about we go to karaoke together next time?" I think our chorus is still very good. ”

"Hehe, I think so too, so it's decided?"

Shi Wen nodded seriously and made an agreement with Zhou Liwen, and then she smiled and said, "I'll leave tomorrow, old classmate, won't you give me a hug?" ”

"I ......." Zhou Liwen was stunned, his body was a little stiff.

Shi Wen's smile was still the same, but her eyes flashed a hint of gloom.

Just when she wanted to say a joke to ease the atmosphere, Zhou Liwen suddenly opened his arms and stepped forward to hug her.

"Old classmate, have a safe journey tomorrow!" Zhou Liwen hugged Shi Wen and whispered in her ear.

"Thank you! Remember our agreement, we must go to karaoke when we meet again! Shi Wen replied with a smile, also hugging Zhou Liwen. After a few seconds, she let go of her hands, and Zhou Liwen also lowered her arms, and the two separated.

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

Shi Wen turned around and left with a bright smile, while Zhou Liwen stood quietly in place and watched her leave, at this moment, he repeated the sentence again in his heart, "Have a safe journey!" ”
