Zhong Haitao's two positions, according to the internal level of CNPC, one is at the deputy department level and the other is at the department level, which also means that he is a cadre at the department level. Although he is only in charge of 30 people as a department-level cadre, and he only has the right to coordinate and not manage the people who belong to the procurement department and the asset management department, the importance of a position depends not only on the number of people he manages, but also on the resources in his hands.

Being able to be a liaison in Zug, the center of the international energy vortex, also indirectly proves that his ability is not weak, and he represents CNPC here, so the resources in his hands are definitely not a small amount.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and then they entered the house. When he was outside, Chen Mo roughly estimated that the area of the first and second floors of this house was about more than 200 square meters, and the third floor was a little smaller, but it was not much, almost 200 square meters. In this way, the accommodating capacity of this house is still not small.

When I entered the house, the structure inside had not changed, but it was very different from the original appearance. The large living room is used as a large office, and according to the layout of the house, there are almost 20 desks, scattered throughout the room, but there is no feeling of crowding at all, but a sense of leisure.

There are also a large number of plants between the desks, roughly spaced into three areas, representing three different departments. However, this is supposed to be the place where ordinary staff work, because in addition to the living room, there are several rooms with different nameplates at the door.

The small living room has been converted into a conference room, and even the original kitchen has been converted into a reception room. However, this Western-style kitchen does not have much oil smoke in the first place, but also has a large window, plus a small door directly leads to the garden, which is perfect for the reception room.

Liu Xiong took Chen Mo to look around, and went up to the second floor along a somewhat narrow wooden staircase. The small living room on the second floor was converted into a dining room, and at this time there were three tables on which it was already full of meals. There was also a set of tables and chairs against the wall, but they were not used because there were not so many people.

Unlike the usual canteens, the restaurant is beautifully furnished all around, with a few spotlights on the roof. Liu Xiong explains: "Sometimes, we also organize a small dance party here to entertain customers, so we have to make good use of everything. ”

"Aren't you afraid of disturbing the people? I've heard that at 10 p.m. in Switzerland, let alone a prom, the car honks its horn and you get fined. ”

"If this is true in an ordinary village, but almost all of the people in this village are rented by companies like ours, as long as it is not excessive, no one will blame you."

A chubby man in his twenties said with a smile: "When I first came to Switzerland, I went to Interlaken to play, and I was complained about because I used the toilet at 11 o'clock, and I was fined 20 Swiss francs. ”

Chen Mo remembered that he was also his real colleague, an employee of the purchasing department, but just now he just nodded and intersected, and did not announce his name. Hearing him say this, he asked in surprise, "So strict?" ”

"Now it's written into the law, after 10 p.m., you can't shower in the hotel, and you can't flush the toilet."

"I'm sure I won't get used to it!"

Liu Xiong laughed and said: "Don't mention it, at the beginning, I was really not used to it at all, but after a long time, I got used to everything here, and when I went back to China, I really felt that the country was too noisy." ”

It's Saturday and everyone isn't going to work. So after consulting Kang Xuedong, two bottles of red wine were opened on the table of the female colleague, and the two tables on which the man sat were French brandy. Don't think that brandy is very expensive here, if you compare it with this ordinary brandy, it is a little cheaper than drinking high-end liquor shipped from China.

finally came to Switzerland, Chen Mo still wanted to go to the office building of the oil king Macridge to pay his respects, but he didn't let go of the volume. The people present did not persuade him to drink, Chen Mo probably drank less than half a catty of this kind of foreign wine of more than 30 degrees, which was not a burden to him at all.

As soon as she finished eating, Liu Xia returned to her room to rest, getting up at five o'clock in the morning, tossing and turning to now, although it has been fourteen hours since two o'clock in the afternoon, her body has long been a little unable to hold on.

Chen Mo was full of energy, and the excitement of coming to Switzerland had not yet dissipated, so he was ready to go out for a walk. Liu Xiong volunteered: "You go and put your luggage down, and I'll take you out for a walk in a while." ”

"Do you know where Macridge's office is? And Glencore's office buildings? ”

"Of course." Liu Xiong smiled: "If I don't know where their office building is, can I still mix in this circle?" ”

On the second floor, in addition to this restaurant and dance hall, the rest are large and small rooms, and according to the different men and women, different positions, dozens of employees all live on the second floor.

As for the third floor, it is used as a guest room, which is also the place where the company stays when people from China come from China. Because it is to serve the leaders to live, so the living conditions are not bad, open the window is the flowers, is the beautiful scenery. The only downside is that the rooms are a little smaller, except for the main two suites, and you need to go to the common bathroom outside to wash up.

Chen Mo was very self-aware, although Zhong Haitao asked him to sleep in another suite, but he insisted on refusing and lived in a single room. Of course, this is also because Kang Xuedong didn't speak, otherwise, he would have moved in a long time ago.

He also understands that for such a large company as CNPC, there are countless explicit and unspoken rules in all aspects. Chen Mo went to live in the suite today, and when he left tomorrow, he would definitely end up with an image of a fox and a fake tiger, which was more than worth the loss for his personal image within the company.

It is also for this reason that Kang Xuedong will not let Chen Mo be greedy for this cheapness. Anyway, he is young, sleeping there is not sleeping, so why bother to dislike people.

This time I went out, and I was no longer in a hurry, so not only the speed of the car, but also the mentality of the two people was different. Looking at the surrounding fields spread out like satin, the colorful forests that have become under the invasion of autumn, and the clear Lake Zug that people want to jump into, Chen Mo felt a kind of exquisite beauty.

"It's no wonder it's known as the Garden of Europe, it's so pure beauty that you can't dislike."

Liu Xiong laughed and said: "Speaking of which, this is not a scenic spot in Switzerland at all, and it is not a beauty with Swiss characteristics. There are many such views in Germany and France. If you go to the central region of Switzerland, and the eastern mountains, the scenery is really fascinating. ”

"I know." Chen Mo nodded and said, "I lived in Oxford, England for a year, and the English countryside there can be regarded as the most beautiful countryside in the world. But there are many other places in the UK that are not so good. The point is that the average level of scenery here in Switzerland, or the lowest value of the scenery here, is so surprising. ”

"You're leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, Minister Xue and they will come over tomorrow night, and I will go to Paris to meet them."

"Unfortunately, if I have time, I can take you to the central region to get a taste of Switzerland."

Chen Mo laughed, "No, I don't feel sorry at all, it's not interesting to go with you as a big man, I prefer to bring my girlfriend to play next time, and a good scenery also needs a good companion." ”

Liu Xiong laughed. "That's right!"

Just kidding, Chen Mo and Liu Xiong get along more harmoniously, Liu Xiong has been in Switzerland for more than three years, and is very familiar with the customs and natural landscapes here.

The Rich Brothers, located near the Zug train station, is a long-term stronghold in Switzerland that Macridge has been wanted by the U.S. government for fifteen years. The office may be unremarkable in the buildings surrounding the train station, but no one can ignore Ritchie's influence. Suffice it to say, without Rich, the city of Zug would not be where it is today.

Because he founded the predecessor of the Glencore company in Zug, a small city of 20,000 people, his disciples actually opened more than 26,000 multinational companies, although many companies no longer work here, but all the headquarters are registered in Zug.

Almost all of the world's energy deals are controlled by this small city. The westward transfer of Russian natural gas, the merger of Canadian coal mines, the change of hands of African gold mines, and the pricing of tungsten mines in China were all manipulated by Ritchie's disciples behind their backs.

Even CNOOC, Petronas, including PetroChina, where Chen Mo works, have also come here, because only here can they get more trading opportunities.

In the café opposite the building, Chen Mo and Liu Xiong sat down. The two of them each ordered a cup of coffee, and when the handsome waiter left, Chen Mo couldn't help but ask, "It looks so ordinary here, is it really Macridge's stronghold?" ”

Liu Xiong nodded and said, "When I got abroad, I really knew that the meat of the bun was not on the folds." For many large companies with international reputations, their headquarters may be a humble building. Although this building is ordinary, but the mountains are not high, there are fairies, and with Macridge, it has become a holy place for all his disciples. ”

Chen Mo's eyes kept staring at the office building opposite, indeed, if it weren't for Liu Xiong's leadership, he would never have imagined that such a legendary figure would establish a new international order and new rules in this place.

Although he knew that Macridge couldn't be here, he still couldn't help but fantasize. Being under a blue sky with a great person, breathing the same air and looking at the same scenery, made him feel a sense of pride.
