Chapter 71 Three alumni
Ma Xingwei has been transferred to Founder Law Firm for more than half a year, Zhou Jianping has never been to his unit, after returning from a business trip, he finished the work that was backlogged on the desk and needed him to deal with it personally, and took some time, Zhou Jianping wanted to go to Ma Xingwei's unit to see, and by the way, he consulted him on some legal issues related to economic disputes.
It is worthy of being the largest law firm in Huaxing City, Founder Law Firm occupies an entire floor of this office building, after inquiry, Zhou Jianping came to the door of Ma Xingwei's office, the door was open, he knocked on the door a few times, "Jianping!" It's you? Come in, please. Ma Xingwei looked up and saw Zhou Jianping, very surprised.
"Can't think of it, right?" Zhou Jianping walked in and sat down on a chair.
"I didn't expect that. You busy man, how can you have time to come out today? Ma Xingwei made a cup of tea and put it on the table in front of Zhou Jianping.
"We haven't seen each other for almost two months, during this period, I hired a senior manager, specializing in management, and now the daily affairs of the factory are all in charge of her, so that I can be a little more relaxed."
"Jianping, your decision is too correct, otherwise, such a big stall, relying on you alone, not only is it very difficult to manage, but you are also too tired, and it is not good for your body to be under high work pressure for a long time." Ma Xingwei said.
"Yes, I just feel too tired, and I have to take care of the market, and I don't have the energy to manage the things in the factory, but the things in the factory can't be managed by anyone, so I decided to hire full-time managers." Zhou Jianping said.
"Is such a person easy to find? Can you find it? ”
"It's a coincidence, otherwise it's really hard to find. I had a previous acquaintance with this person, who graduated from university with a major in financial management and is the deputy head of the business management department of the state-owned Xiangyang Food Factory, a large enterprise. ”
"Yo, people are state cadres in the system!" Ma Xingwei said.
"Yes, just like you, you used to be state cadres, don't you also run away from the system now?"
"What did you think of to get people here?"
"This person is capable, very pragmatic, she is very disgusted by the phenomenon of state-owned enterprises that people are superficial, and she looks very lightly at things inside and outside the system, she has visited Jiansheng Food Factory once or twice, maybe the vitality of our enterprise has had an impact on her, I talked to her about our wishes, about less than a month, she resigned from Xiangyang Food Factory and came to our factory." Zhou Jianping said.
"Well, it seems that this person is very efficient, and he will do what he says, without those long-winded things." Ma Xingwei said.
"Xingwei, speaking of which, this person still has a bit of fate with us."
"What's going on?"
"This Zhao Xinmei is our high school alumnus, she graduated from Huaxing No. 6 Middle School in 84, four years lower than the two of us."
"She also graduated from Huaxing No. 6 Middle School? What a coincidence! Have time to get acquainted. ”
"You can go to the factory at any time. Xingwei, are you busy now? Zhou Jianping said.
"It doesn't matter if you're busy or not, you can say something."
"I went on a business trip a few days ago to solve the problem of payment overload, and one of the customers was a retail mall, and the unit is now closed, and it is a bit tricky to owe us two payments."
"When you talk to me about this, do you want to solve the problem by legal means? I can only give you advice from a legal point of view. ”
"I've been to the other party's unit, and now it seems that the only way to solve the problem is to use legal means."
"Then sue the other party. Do you have a supply contract with them, and does the contract indicate the place of jurisdiction? This involves prosecuting locally or in the territory of the opposing party. Ma Xingwei said.
"I didn't pay attention to that, I'll find out when I go back and check it out. The key is to sue the other party, what do I get? Can I recover the payment for the goods through a lawsuit? ”
"It's hard to say, it depends on the other party's economic situation and asset status, if the other party is a poor egg, even if the lawsuit is won, it may end up with nothing, but as long as there are assets, through the enforcement court, you can also obtain assets equivalent to the payment for the goods."
Zhou Jianping stopped for a while, and he suddenly decided: "Xingwei, you prepare to sue, I have to sue the other party, tens of thousands of yuan for goods, I can't just cheapen them like this." ”
"I think it should also be sued, if you think about it, the other party purchased goods from Jiansheng Food Factory, if the goods are not sold, we can pull the goods back, the loss is only a little freight, if the goods have been sold, the money from the sale must be misappropriated by them for other purposes. In this case, the other party must be made to pay the price. ”
"What do you think is needed? I'll get it ready in the factory and let them send it over later. ”
"You don't need anything else, you just ask the factory to send the purchase and sale contract."
Zhou Jianping used the phone in Ma Xingwei's office to tell Xiaoliang of the sales department to find out the contract and send it to Founder Law Firm immediately.
At about eleven o'clock in the morning, Zhou Jianping was about to get up and leave, "What time is it?" The factory is not as inseparable from you at any time as before, so what's the hurry! Ma Xingwei said.
"This chat will take you more than two hours, and I'm afraid of delaying your work."
"Hey, our job is like farming with farmers, and when it's not over, if it's urgent, it's not uncommon to take the work home after work and continue to work late at night."
"If you think about it, it's not easy to do anything!" Zhou Jianping sighed.
"Jianping, don't leave at noon, there is a restaurant near our unit, we haven't seen each other for nearly two months, find a slightly larger place for lunch in a while." Uh, do you want to bring in this alumnus you hired? I'll do the east and give her the wind. Ma Xingwei suggested.
"This ----,"
Zhou Jianping hesitated for a moment, and Ma Xingwei said: "If you don't think it's okay, then don't call her." ”
"No, no, no, I don't have any problems here, I just think this person has a lot of character, if she doesn't come, I'm afraid I'll have to refute both of our faces." In a sense, Zhou Jianping still has a little psychological distance from Zhao Xinmei, and he is afraid that Zhao Xinmei will reject him, making him lose face in front of Ma Xingwei.
"I don't care, it's not a big deal to be rejected, why do we have to listen to a word? You tell her to come if she wants, and if there is something in the factory that can't come, that's normal. Ma Xingwei said.
"Alright then, I still have to use your phone." Zhou Jianping dialed the phone number of Zhao Xinmei's office, "Xinmei, I'm Zhou Jianping, are you busy now?" ”
"Director, is there something wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm in the office of this friend of Founder Law Firm now, just now, it turns out that the three of us are alumni, and this alumnus wants to pick up the wind for you at noon today, and asks you if you are willing to appreciate it?" Afraid of disgusting Zhao Xinmei, Zhou Jianping said very politely.
"Factory director, don't say that, I can go to the appointment if you don't appreciate the light, but the factory clearly stipulates that you can't go out without permission at noon!" Zhao Xinmei said.
"Yes, but there are special circumstances, and there can be occasional exceptions, you say?"
Since Zhou Jianping said so, Zhao Xinmei was originally an open-minded person, of course there was no need for her to stick to her principles, "Okay, where can I find you?" ”
Zhou Jianping didn't answer immediately, but turned to Ma Xingwei, "Where are we going?" ”
"Let's go to the Hongsheng Hotel, I will book a table now, and you will call her later."
"Xinmei, you hang up the phone first, and I'll call you later."
Ma Xingwei ordered a small bag at the Hongsheng Hotel, and Zhou Jianping dialed Zhao Xinmei's phone again and told her the room number.
Zhao Xinmei didn't leave the hotel until after work at noon, and when she arrived, Zhou Jianping and Ma Xingwei were already waiting in the private room.
After greeting each other, Zhou Jianping said: "Sit down first, and I'll introduce you." Ms. Zhao Xinmei, the former deputy head of the business management department of Xiangyang Food Company, graduated from university, and is now the executive deputy director of Jiansheng Food Factory; This Mr. Ma Xingwei, my best classmate in high school, the former deputy head of the planning department of Huaxing Light Industry Machinery Factory, and now a partner of Founder Law Firm, in fact, the experiences of the two of you are very similar. The three of us are all alumni of Huaxing No. 6 Middle School, but Xinmei is the eighty-fourth class. ”
Zhao Xinmei stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Ma Xingwei, "Hello, senior!" ”
"It's a good luck to meet you! You may be seated. In front of you, we don't dare to call ourselves seniors. Ma Xingwei said.
"Why?"
"Although you are four times higher, Jianping and I are both unsuccessful students, and you are the pride of Huaxing No. 6 Middle School."
"The seniors are too modest, in fact, you are the elite."
"Okay, don't be modest, although we are not excellent, at least we are not ashamed of Huaxing No. 6 Middle School. Put this question aside and order the dish first. Zhou Jianping said.
The three of them are already familiar with the dishes of the hotel, and they can order what they like to eat without looking at the menu.
During the banquet, Zhou Jianping told Zhao Xinmei that Ma Xingwei was the leader of his entry into the workplace, and if it weren't for the help of his old classmates, he might still be setting up a stall, or he couldn't make money in the city, and he couldn't get along, so he would go back to the countryside.
"Senior, you are the noble man of our factory director, I will replace wine with water, I salute you!" Zhao Xinmei picked up the water glass.
"Xueyou, just now you said that you had something to do in the afternoon, so I didn't let you drink, and the main topic at noon today is to welcome you, I should respect you! Well, since your proposal, I have to respond. ”
Ma Xingwei put down the cup, "Actually, what Jianping said is a bit exaggerated, what a leader!" At that time, he was also doing business well, but he felt that the risk was a bit big, so he found me, and I happened to have some convenient conditions, so I helped him, mainly because Jianping did a good job, both work ability and business acumen, otherwise, my help alone would be useless. ”
"Director Zhou said that the senior was his best classmate in high school, and it seems that this is the case, and it is not easy for the friendship at that time to be maintained for so many years." Zhao Xinmei said.
"I can meet Xingwei as a friend on the road of life, which is a reward from the god of luck, Xingwei is not only the guide for me to enter the workplace, but also spares no effort to help and support me to this day, which makes me very moved."
"Jianping digressed, didn't I say it just now, how did the central issue get to me in order to welcome the arrival of my classmates? Jianping, let Xueyou replace wine with water, let's respect her. Ma Xingwei said.
"The two seniors, although there is only a difference of four years, but the people of your era, I feel that they have much richer experience than us, and their comprehensive quality is very high, and there are many qualities worth learning from us." At least for the two people here, Zhao Xinmei's words are not Feng Cheng.
"Xueyou has won the award, it is a fact that we have more experience in those three sessions, but there are not a few people who have achieved nothing, experience is one thing, and the key is to look at yourself." Ma Xingwei said.
Zhou Jianping continued: "I admire Xingwei in this regard, and through his own efforts, he not only obtained a bachelor's degree in law, but also passed the qualification examination for practicing lawyers. Speaking of which, Xingwei, are you personally responsible for our lawsuit to recover the payment for the goods, or is it handled by someone else? ”
