Chapter 355: Shiny
(.) "What? Are you still not satisfied? ”
In the room of Zhou Liwen's mansion, Zhou Liwen glanced at Yao Liang who was sitting in front of him, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
As soon as this sentence was asked, Yao Liang, who was still a little resentful a minute ago, was stunned. Indeed, what's not to be satisfied with here? He got the position of vice president, and at the same time did not lose control of the credit department and the Alipay project, not only rose from an assistant to the president to half a level, but also surpassed Vice President Qiao and Vice President Ma in the vice president, becoming the third person in the ranking.
This result should be very good for Yao Liang, but he can't be happy. Because the answer is very simple, just when he thought he had succeeded and was about to replace President Su, he suddenly learned that he was not the only one who was finally promoted to the board of directors this time, but also Vice President Lin.
Instead of temporarily appointing a successor as he expected, President Su decisively adopted the plan of resigning from the head office and retaining the position of chairman. In addition, he also put forward a proposal at the board of directors to let Vice President Lin take over his position as president, and the board of directors approved it.
In this way, President Su became the chairman, Vice President Lin became the president, and even entered the board of directors to occupy a place. In this case, Yao Liang's vice president is a chicken rib. Originally, he was extremely excited, thinking that he had obtained the coveted position of vice president, and then he only needed to stay up for another two or three years, and when President Su completely retreated, he could replace him. But now, Vice President Lin has become the president of the bank, and this time his access has been blocked. Judging from Vice President Lin's age, he can even be in this position for ten years, and even if he has the opportunity to take the position in the future, it will be at least ten years later.
Ten years, how many decades are there in life? And what will happen in this decade, no one can guarantee. Yao Liang, who was still standing in his new office one moment ago, facing the scenery outside the glass curtain wall, was dumbfounded as if he had been slapped with a cold stick.
He didn't know how he listened to the appointment in the bank, and he didn't know how he walked out of the Su Xingchang in despair...... It shouldn't be said that it is from Chairman Su's office. Anyway, the disappointment in his heart suddenly replaced the joy and excitement in his heart, and he locked himself in his office and sat stupidly for two hours.
ran to find Zhou Liwen, Yao Liang on the one hand complained to Zhou Liwen, and on the other hand, he wanted to try to change this decision through Zhou Liwen. But who would have thought that Zhou Liwen not only did not comfort him after seeing him, but asked such a question very calmly, which made Yao Liang stunned.
"It was a board resolution, and I voted for it at the meeting." Zhou Liwen bluntly put on his attitude, and as soon as these words came out, Yao Liang's heart was half cold.
"But Brother Zhou, I ......."
"I promised to put you in the position of vice president and run the Shanghai Bank for me. This point, from now on, my promise has been fulfilled, and the next specific work has to be done by you, not to mention that it is not a bad thing for President Lin to serve as the general president. Xiaoliang, it's not me talking about you, you are too composed, no matter from the perspective of position or authority, you are currently a big step forward from before. And Vice President Wang will retire in a few years, and as soon as he retires, you will be the second-in-command in the industry. After all, you are still young, and it is too inappropriate to be a leader at this age, I have told you this kind of truth before. Sometimes, people have to know how to be willing, willing to be willing, and having to be willing to be like you, and the second-in-command in a few years will be of great benefit to yourself and your future career. ”
"You mean ......?" Yao Liang was stunned and hesitated.
Zhou Liwen nodded slightly, lit the cigarette in his hand and said, "I won't tell you, President Lin is now my person, in other words, he is also the partner you will cooperate with in the future." He is a person with decent ability, but he is not enterprising, and he just complements you. And judging from the ranking and qualifications in the bank, the selection of him to replace Chairman Su as the president of the bank has received the least resistance. Of course, the future work has to rely on you and him to cooperate to do, this is also a test of your qualifications and ability, as long as you are in the position of second in command, are you still worried that you will not be able to sit in the position of president in the future? ”
Yao Liang was speechless and speechless for a while. He was extremely complicated, he didn't expect Zhou Liwen to include President Lin under his umbrella, so Zhou Liwen had already known about the resolution of the board of directors, and it could even be said that he was the driving force behind it. recalled the scene when he went to Governor Su's house three days ago, and the words that Governor Su said when he invited him to dinner. Yao Liang's mind flashed, and he vaguely understood what was going on.
sighed in his heart, Yao Liang knew that this decision could not be changed, and Zhou Liwen had already made careful planning arrangements, he thought he was a chess player, but who would have thought that he would become a chess piece in the end. It is ridiculous that a dignified vice president of Huhai Bank has become a pawn. But he thought of President Lin, who had just taken over as the head of the bank, and his heart was a little more balanced. Because as the head of the bank, he is no different from himself, and he is also a pawn of other people's hands.
comforted Yao Liang for a few words, and Zhou Liwen sent him out of the door. Seeing Yao Liang drive away from the gate, Zhou Liwen couldn't help but shake his head. This kid is still too tender, too utilitarian, it seems that his arrangement is correct, if you really want to bite the bullet and find a way to push him up, maybe something will have to happen. For Zhou Liwen, Huhai Bank is extremely important, and it must not cause chaos, let alone any internal situation. Now this arrangement, whether it is Chairman Su or himself, is the most appropriate choice.
"Xiao Liang is gone?" Back in the room, Lin Yaxuan had just finished reading to her son, and she was making up the sheets after the little guy fell asleep. Zhou Liwen hurriedly stepped forward when he saw it, and let her rest on the side, his wife has been for several months, and her belly is gradually getting bigger, this kind of housework is still less than better.
"Let's go, this guy ......." Zhou Liwen shook his head and sighed as he sorted it out.
"What's wrong with him? Xiaoliang and you are also old friends, if you have any difficulties, help him. Lin Yaxuan, who didn't know the situation, said casually.
"Why didn't I help him?" After Zhou Liwen finished tidying up, he went around to his wife, helped her lie on the bed, and then helped her cover the quilt: "This kid has low eyes and a big heart." ”
"What's going on?" Lin Yaxuan couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Liwen sat down on the other side, raised his legs on the bed, and gently hugged his wife in his arms, and then told her what had happened before and after.
After Zhou Liwen finished speaking one by one, Lin Yaxuan frowned and said, "Your arrangement is not bad, you can advance or retreat, what is Xiaoliang not satisfied with?" ”
"What else can I do, don't you just covet the position of the head president. He also didn't want to think about how old he was or how many seniorities he had in the industry. I'm not the leader of the CBRC, so it's hard enough to give him a second-in-command position. This kid didn't thank or say, and came to me to complain, this person is really not satisfied. ”
Listening to Zhou Liwen's old-fashioned words, Lin Yaxuan couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile: "Isn't there an old saying, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier." Besides, you are not much older than Xiao Liang, and when you hear this, you seem to think that his parents said it. ”
Zhou Liwen suddenly laughed dumbly, this is also true, due to his mentality, he almost forgot this. In the eyes of outsiders, Yao Liang is young, why is he not young?
"By the way, I forgot to tell you something." Gently leaning his head on Zhou Liwen's chest, Lin Yaxuan's fingers fiddled with the twists of his pajamas: "Tingting is calling in front, she will return to Huhai tomorrow." ”
"Come back tomorrow? Is the investigation over from the U.S. side? ”
"Well, it's over, and then the integration of Ahri's side is about to begin, and many aspects of the country need her to be in place to deal with it."
"It's really hard for her, when is the flight? I'll have someone pick her up tomorrow. ”
Lin Yaxuan said for a while, Zhou Liwen casually took the mobile phone on the side and retracted his hand after thinking about it: "Forget it, it's daytime anyway, I'll go to the airport in person tomorrow." ”
"It's okay, pick up Tingting and let her come to the house for dinner."
"No problem, I also have something to talk to her about." Zhou Liwen smiled and nodded in agreement.
"And yes." Lin Yaxuan looked up at Zhou Liwen and thought for a while: "Do you remember how many years you bought a car with Tingting?" ”
"Remember, how could you not remember." Zhou Liwen said with a smile: "At that time, I was still in a fight with someone, if it wasn't for the scientific people who came later, maybe I would have been detained for a few days." ”
As soon as Zhou Liwen said this, Lin Yaxuan was happy, not only Zhou Liwen remembered this matter, but Lin Yaxuan remembered it vividly. Especially when Zhou Luowen entered the police station, when the police asked him what he said, Zhou Liwen raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily, "He beat my wife", and Lin Yaxuan is deeply imprinted in his mind until today.
"Why did you suddenly remember to talk about this?" Zhou Liwen asked with a smile, people often say that pregnant women like to think cranky, but Lin Yaxuan is already the second child, and even if she thinks crankily, she shouldn't think about it, it's been a few years, if it weren't for Lin Yaxuan mentioning Zhou Liwen, he would have almost forgotten.
"It's not Tingting's business yet." Lin Yaxuan said: "She was heartbroken that time, and she never talked about her boyfriend again. Don't look at her now as a strong woman, but a woman is a woman after all. Awen, if you have a suitable man, help Tingting introduce her, she is not young this year, if she drags on for a few more years, she will become an old girl. ”
"Let me think about it." Zhou Liwen didn't expect Lin Yaxuan to mention this matter to make himself a matchmaker, this kind of introducer Zhou Liwen has never been in his previous life or in this life, and he doesn't know how to get it for a while.
"Didn't you have a suitable classmate before?" Zhou Liwen pondered and asked.
"Do you think it's appropriate to introduce your former classmates?" Lin Yaxuan glanced at him: "If it was suitable for the university at that time, it would be good, and I still need to introduce it now." Besides, Tingting's current identity and status, if you introduce someone worse than her, do you think this kind of marriage can be happy? You are well known in the business circle, and you know a lot of people, so it's better for you to pay attention to this matter than for me to look for it. ”
Lin Yaxuan's words are not bad, Chinese people pay attention to the right people, now Liu Ting is not only a little rich, but also a celebrity in the domestic IT industry, an identity like her must not be able to find ordinary people, even if they barely get together, this kind of marriage will not last long.
However, Zhou Liwen couldn't think of anyone who could introduce him to Liu Ting for a while. If you talk about wealth and status, Richard is not bad, you want money and money, you want status and status, and your family background is good. But this guy is a pure playboy, he really wants to be with Liu Ting, let alone Zhou Liwen, Lin Yaxuan disagrees with the first one. But who else is there for the right person besides Richard? Zhou Liwen frowned and pondered for a while, but he still didn't come up with it.
If you can't think of it, you won't think about it for the time being, and anyway, it's not in a hurry for a while. After talking to Lin Yaxuan again, he came up sleepily and turned off the lamp, and the two rested early.
The next afternoon, Zhou Liwen took the car to the airport, Liu Ting's flight was half an hour late, when she walked out of the passage and saw Carl, she was stunned at first, and then greeted him with a smile.
"Sir is waiting for you in the car." Carl took Liu Ting's luggage, and the gentleman took her to the parking lot. A few minutes later, they got into the car, and Zhou Liwen, who had been waiting in the car for a while, said hard work to Liu Ting with a smile.
"Dong Zhou, you don't have to come to pick me up, it's not that I don't know the way." Seeing Zhou Liwen, Liu Ting joked with him easily, although she was a little tired from the plane, she was very good from her spirit.
"This is the queen's decree, she is waiting for you to come over for dinner at home." Zhou Liwen took a bottle of water from the side and gave it to her, also joking.
"Hee-hee, it looks like I'm blessed today." Liu Ting took the waterway and thanked her, and at this time the car left the parking lot, got on the elevated highway and went straight to the city.
"The expedition is all done?"
"It's almost done, and some follow-up work is estimated to take several months to coordinate. By the way, Dong Chou, Wells Fargo has agreed to our Alipay cooperation project, and the general plan may come out in a few weeks. ”
"You can be responsible for the specific operation, and you can record it for me when the time comes." Zhou Liwen nodded and replied, he knows about this, as the first bank in the United States to make online payments, Wells Fargo has this advantage, and Zhou Liwen is currently a shareholder of Wells Fargo, so this channel is not in vain.
Then, Liu Ting asked Zhou Liwen to report on the preparations for overseas shopping, which is currently going very smoothly. The hub on the Xiangjiang side has been prepared, and the overseas channels are basically talking, and the Guo side is also following up together, and the cooperation agreement has been signed with UB in the United States, as for Europe, it is slightly more troublesome than the United States, after all, there are too many countries in Europe, although the countries are now integrated, but the complexity of customs and taxation is more involved than in North America, but the overall good news, these things are not urgent, and they have to be done step by step.
"Where's Ahri?"
"I'm going to go to Hangzhou in a few days, and I've had a preliminary conversation with Ma Qingyang by phone and email these days. Although he has some resentment about the change in the structure of the shares, I admit that this man has a good vision and a much more flexible mind. In case you didn't know, he has a lot of similarities to our strategy in terms of the company's development and vision, and we basically agree on that. Of course, there are still differences on some details, so I'm afraid I'll have to stay there for a few more days until we reach an agreement before going back to Shanghai. Liu Ting said with a smile, Zhou Liwen looked at her radiant expression, and secretly sighed. At the same time, he also thought of Lin Yaxuan's request to him yesterday, and pondered how to mention this to Liu Ting.
The two talked and chatted, sometimes Zhou Liwen asked questions, Liu Ting answered, and sometimes Liu Ting talked Zhou Liwen told her what she thought after thinking about it. This way, which has formed a tacit understanding before them, seems very natural.
About an hour later, the car returned to Zhou Liwen's home. After receiving a call from Carl in advance, Lin Yaxuan was already waiting in the child with the little guy. As soon as Liu Ting got out of the car, she walked briskly to them, and after a while, there were bursts of laughter from her, Lin Yaxuan, and the little guy.
Zhou Liwen got out of the car and saw his son sitting on the lawn from a distance unpacking the gifts that Liu Ting brought him, dancing happily. Smiling slightly, Zhou Liwen was about to walk towards them when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Hey"
"It's me, where are you?" Brother Jun's voice came from the phone, and he didn't know where this guy was calling, and he looked mysterious in his voice.
"Where else can it be, Huhai, your own home," Zhou Liwen replied subconsciously.
"Then you wait and don't go, I'll come over right away" Brother Jun hurriedly said, he hung up the phone without waiting for Zhou Liwen to ask what the situation was, and when Zhou Liwen dialed it again, this guy actually turned off the phone.
"Strange ......." Zhou Liwen shook his head depressedly, put the phone in his pocket, and continued to walk towards his wife and children, and when he got closer, the little guy had already opened the gift, and when he saw Zhou Liwen coming over, he hurriedly laughed and shouted: "Dad, Dad, come and see, the gift that Aunt Liu brought to Duoduo is really exciting"
"Still excited?" Zhou Liwen was stunned, who did you learn this little thing from? How come I've never heard him say it before? Take a closer look, not to mention, this gift is really exciting, Liu Ting actually bought a fully armed Spider-Man suit for the little guy, which made him happy, and shouted to try it out.
Zhou Liwen took the little guy to the house to change clothes, and when he changed his equipment, a freshly baked little Spider-Man suddenly appeared. ran back to the lawn, ran to his mother and his Aunt Liu and posed a few times, and his triumphant expression suddenly caused everyone to burst into laughter.
