Chapter 187: Face
Shi Zhong didn't know, because of his words, he forcibly broke up a pair of lovers, and the girl broke up with the man the next time, if Shi Zhong knew that his mouth was so powerful, he wouldn't have to be proud!
In the box on the second floor, a group of people walked out, and a man in front said to the old man next to him: "Mr. Huang, the situation of our company is like this, thank you for your face appreciation today, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!" β
Huang Chengpi smiled and said: "It must be certain, Mr. Zhang is young and promising, and the company must not be bad, but I have other considerations for this project, today's meal is mine, and I like to make young friends the most!" β
When Zhang Xu heard this, his heart sank, knowing that this business must be yellow, but he still squeezed out a smile on his face: "Thank you Mr. Huang for your love, please!" β
A group of people walked downstairs, Huang Cheng was in front, Zhang Xu was one step behind, his mind was heavy, he didn't expect to invite Huang Cheng to have a meal, it still didn't work, the last San Francisco fake thing has not been done, his company has finally developed to this scale, is it possible to return to five years ago, poor and white? Zhang Xu was a little unhappy, but in the face of an old fox like Huang Cheng, he couldn't show his expression, so he was careful to laugh.
"Mr. Zhang, go back and tell Song Ju, it's not that I don't give him face, you know, I also have my own difficulties, to be honest... Hi, don't talk about it, in short, I will definitely give priority to your Jinding if there is any business in the future! Huang Cheng thought about it and reminded Zhang Xu that although Song Hao was only a low-ranking deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, he was also a decent person, so he was polite.
"Look at what you said, it's already very face-saving for you to come, there must be a reason for your choice, I will definitely explain it clearly!" Zhang Xu said with a smile, Song Hao is his father's old leader, and this time it is his relationship.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is really a reasonable person, and his future is immeasurable!" Huang Cheng said with a smile.
Zhang Xu smiled, but it was a little ugly.
Walking to the hall, Huang Cheng's eyes swept casually, and suddenly, his smile froze, like a duck that had been choked by the neck, his face changed, and he hurriedly lowered his head, intentionally or unintentionally speeding up his pace.
Zhang Xu was by Huang Cheng's side, so he naturally noticed the change in Huang Cheng's expression, looked at Huang Cheng suspiciously, and said "Huh", because he found a familiar figure, it seemed to be the Chinese young man he met last time he went to San Francisco, but now he was accompanying Huang Cheng, and it was impossible for the big boss to run over to greet him.
"Mr. Huang, I haven't seen you for a few days, are you so forgetful? Don't say hello when you meet? Shi Zhong had just finished eating and was about to go to the front desk to pay, but by coincidence, he found Huang Cheng's old fox.
"Yo, it turned out to be Manager Shi, oops, what a coincidence, I said how I saw a person who looks very similar to you just now, but I didn't dare to admit it!" Huang Cheng turned his face quickly, and when he saw Shi Zhong seeing him, he really couldn't hide, so he hurriedly smiled, and the people who saw Huang Cheng were surprised, who is this young man? Even Mr. Huang had to greet him with a smile, and listening to the tone of the young man, it seemed a little unkind.
"Really?" Shi Zhong raised his voice.
"Isn't that it?" Huang Cheng said a little weakly, "Manager Shi, what happened last time..."
"Don't tell me about the last time!" Shi Zhong interrupted.
"That's it, Manager Shi, tomorrow, tomorrow I will personally set up a table to make amends to you, how about it?" Huang Cheng smiled bitterly, of course he knew that Shi Zhong's background was not simple, but last time it was entrusted by the state/security, and he voluntarily applied to become a national/security informant, so naturally he couldn't shirk it, but he offended this young man miserably.
A few people behind him were even more surprised, Zhang Xu looked at Shi Zhong with a shocked face, he originally wanted to recognize him, but now he is a little timid, is this the young man who didn't understand anything last time he met on the plane?
"Reparation? Mr. Huang, what are you talking about, what are you guilty of, as a junior, how dare I, if they come to the door one day, wouldn't I be miserable, I also want to ask Mr. Huang to raise your noble hand! The stone bell said in a strange voice.
Huang Cheng naturally knew who the "they" in Shi Zhong's mouth were, he knew that Shi Zhong was angry, and he also understood that it was not easy for anyone to be put in a position, and he didn't care about Zhang Xu's surprised expression, and said: "Manager Shi said that he laughed, I haven't thanked you well for the last time about the machine tool, so it's better to bump into it, or where will we go to play later?" β
"Huh!" Shi Zhong didn't answer, his eyes swept away, but he saw an acquaintance, and said in surprise: "Mr. Zhang? β
"Hehe, Mr. Shi, hello, I didn't expect us to see each other again!" Zhang Xu thought about it and stretched out his hand.
"Thanks to your tips last time!" Shi Zhong warmly shook his hand.
"Hehe, Mr. Shi remembers it so clearly, it's really embarrassing for me!" Zhang Xu naturally knew that Shi Zhong was referring to what he told him about San Francisco customs, but if Zhang Xu was given another chance, he wouldn't say anything if he killed Zhang Xu, people are people who can talk to Huang Cheng, they won't understand this, and they are still showing off there, so they are of high quality and don't break themselves.
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, what are you...?" Shi Zhong pointed to Huang Cheng.
Zhang Xu didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "Please have a meal with Mr. Huang, and talk about business by the way!" β
"Is it done?"
A wry smile flashed on Zhang Xu's face, but he concealed it well, and said: "Hehe, Mr. Huang has long belonged in his heart, but being able to get to know Mr. Huang today is my biggest gain!" β
"I said Mr. Huang, you are not right, a large company like you should support a small business, besides, Mr. Zhang's company I also know, the reputation and efficiency are not comparable to other companies, you said where do you find such a partner, if you want me to say, you and Mr. Zhang cooperation is a win-win situation, why bother others!"
Shi Zhong suddenly said to Huang Cheng, Huang Cheng was stunned, listening to the conversation between the two just now, he knew that Shi Zhong and this Zhang Xu were just ordinary friends, but he didn't expect Shi Zhong to turn around and speak for Zhang Xu.
However, Huang Cheng is worthy of rolling in the shopping mall for half his life, weighing it in his heart, he quickly made a decision, and said with a smile: "Manager Shi has spoken, what else can I say, so let's go back and study again, Mr. Zhang, what do you think?" β
"Huh?" Zhang Xu didn't react, he was stunned for a second, overjoyed, and said excitedly, "That... Okay, okay, thank you, Mr. Huang! He knew that what Huang Cheng meant by research and research, that is, he had chosen himself.
"Don't thank me, to be honest, Mr. Zhang, although your company is good, but the scale is a little smaller, I originally planned to hand over this business to HSBC Foreign Trade, but who let Manager Shi speak for you!" Huang Chengdao, he knew that if he didn't give Shi Zhong face, he might really offend Shi Zhong completely, which was not cost-effective, and he still heard about Shi Zhong in Hangzhou City.
When Zhang Xu heard this, he didn't know what Huang Cheng meant, so he suppressed the curiosity in his heart and said, "Mr. Shi, it's really... Thank you so much! He was really excited, this sentence said without a trace of artificiality, the last time San Francisco defective products made the company backlog a lot of goods, the already small amount of funds instantly turnover difficult, if you don't take a big order, the company will collapse, their years of hard work can be in vain.
Shi Zhong waved his hand, the reason why he wanted to help Zhang Xu was mainly to disgust Huang Cheng, since Huang Cheng was so sincere, he naturally couldn't be so provocative, after all, people are also decent figures: "Mr. Zhang, don't thank me, in my opinion, the main thing is that your company's strength is there, Mr. Huang, don't you say?" β
Huang Cheng saw Shi Zhong smiling at himself, knowing that this Liang Zi had been revealed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Manager Shi, what about tomorrow's dinner...?" β
Huang Cheng's apology this time is very sincere, this paragraph can be regarded as revealed, but Shi Zhong still has a pimple in his heart, and he naturally stayed away from Huang Cheng's treat, and said: "Forget about the dinner, I am estimated to go back to Zhouhang City tomorrow, next time, next time I have time to go to Zhouhang, I will ask Mr. Huang to rub it!" β
"That's fine!" Huang Cheng was not reluctant, knowing that it would be a little embarrassing to stay any longer, so he said a few words that were not painful, and took the lead in leaving with a few people from the company.
After Huang Cheng got into the car and left, Zhang Xu looked grateful and said, "Mr. Shi, you see, this time it's really..."
"Hehe, Mr. Zhang, don't call me Mr. Shi, I'm more realistic, just call me Shi Zhong!" Shi Zhong waved his hand and said, this Zhang Xu is a lover with a surname, and he is worth befriending, Shi Zhong helped him also have something to do with the conversation on the last plane, and felt that he was quite on the road.
"That's okay, I'm a few years older than you, just take care of it, I'll call you Brother Shi, don't call me Mr. Zhang, just call me Zhang Xu!" Zhang Xu said with a smile, it can be seen that Shi Zhong's identity is definitely not simple, and he is naturally very willing to make friends.
"Brother Zhang, let me call you Brother Zhang!" Shi Zhong said with a smile
"Okay!" Zhang Xu said, "It's still early, let's go to the bar and sit?" β
"Well, I haven't seen the nightlife of Deep Sea City yet!" Shi Zhong nodded in agreement.
The two of them walked out together, followed by a man and a woman, presumably employees of Zhang Xu's company, and Zhang Xu asked the two of them to go back first.
Seeing Shi Zhong's car, Zhang Xu sighed, and today he knew what a rich man is! His 100,000-dollar Hyundai Elantra seems to be a little off the table.
Shi Zhong touched his nose, it seems that this car will not be able to drive out in the future, when it is necessary to install the faΓ§ade, it is usually better to hide in the snow, well, maybe I should buy a Volkswagen, Passat is a good choice.
Zhang Xu knows a bar, although it is not a high-end bar, but it has a very atmosphere, the name is "Come on", it is a well-known speakeasy in Shenhai City, which is famous for its original rock music, gathering the city's pioneer youth, in Zhang Xu's words, under the huge work pressure, it is a good choice to come here.
