Chapter 123: A Sudden Dispatch Order
Jia Haoming sat on the opposite floor, stomping his feet angrily.
He did not expect that Ichiro Yamamoto would say that unexpected sentence in front of so many Chinese.
What he didn't expect was that those who were still throwing mineral water bottles to Yamamoto just now were dismissed by Du Xiaowei's words in just a few minutes.
Things turned so quickly that Jia Haoming was a little caught off guard.
He slammed the table hard, but unexpectedly, the cup of coffee that the waiter had just brought him bounced off the table, and the brown coffee splashed his face.
"Damn, frustrated!" Jia Haoming was angry and anxious, and hurriedly took out a few napkins from his pocket and wiped them on his face. Then, grab the trench coat and leather bag next to you and head downstairs.
Although the protest crowd at the entrance of Dingxin Company has dispersed, the matter does not end there.
That night, Yamamoto held a card in his hand and shouted: "The Diaoyu Islands belong to China, I love China!" The scene appeared in the evening news in Haizhou.
The next morning, China's major newspapers and media also forwarded and reported on the incident.
Once again, Yamamoto has become the focus of attention and discussion.
Soon, his story spread to Japan, causing a great shock in Japan.
Many right-wingers began to criticize him, accusing him of being a traitor and a sinner of the Yamato nation, and demanding that the Japanese Government punish him......
The Japanese government also believes that his actions have harmed Japan's interests.
Therefore, by putting pressure on Uniworld Global's subsidiary in Tokyo. Ask Uniworld to fire Ichiro Yamamoto and apologize to them.
Huanyu International believes that there is nothing wrong with Ichiro Yamamoto's remarks, so it rejected the unreasonable demands of the Japanese government.
The Japanese government was furious and threatened to sanction Uniworld's subsidiary in Tokyo.
Given the company's commercial interests in Japan, Uniworld had to make some concessions and agree to transfer Ichiro Yamamoto out of China.
But he never apologized to Japan.
Uniworld is registered in the United States. Therefore, the Japanese Government does not dare to offend the United States because of this incident. In the end, I had to bluff to accept the result.
A few days later, Universal International's dispatch order. It was sent by fax to the president's office of Dingxin Company. Ichiro Yamamoto was asked to return to the United States immediately within three days to take up a new position.
Li Zhejun was taken aback when he saw this sternly worded dispatch order.
If it had been a few months ago, he would have jumped for joy. Because at that time, he was full of hostility towards Yamamoto. But now it's completely different, and he is very satisfied with Yamamoto's performance.
Although it was written about a promotion and transfer, he still felt that this transfer order came too suddenly.
Some time ago, there was a protest demonstration. Now, as soon as the matter is over, a dispatch order has been sent from headquarters, and he believes that there must be a reason for this.
So, I hurriedly called the headquarters to inquire.
However, the response from headquarters was simple: "Because business in North America is growing fast, a senior executive is needed." So, the board decided to bring him back. ”
Li Zhejun was suspicious, so he had to call his father, Li Haonan, the chairman of Huanyu International. Ask if Yamamoto's incident is related to what happened a few days ago?
Li Haonan said: "This is a normal decision of the company, and it has nothing to do with other things!" ”
Seeing that he couldn't get a result, Li Zhejun had to retreat and ask Yamamoto to stay. Li Haonan refused: "This is the collective decision of the board of directors, and no one can change it!" ”
After speaking, he hung up the phone with a "snap".
Li Zhejun unwillingly pulled it out a few more times, but Li Haonan refused to answer again.
Li Zhejun knew that there was no room for negotiation in this matter. After much hesitation, he had to find Yamamoto and tell him about the decision of the headquarters.
Yamamoto was silent for a while, and took the dispatch order very calmly.
Li Zhejun was very surprised to see Yamamoto so calm: "Mr. Yamamoto, why don't you ask why?" ”
Yamamoto said, "No need to ask...... Because my words touched the nerves of some Japanese people...... However, I don't regret it at all! ”
Li Zhejun stood up and patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of respect: "Mr. Yamamoto, I admire you very much...... But ......"
Yamamoto smiled calmly: "It doesn't matter, in the face of politics, the power of an individual is very small...... Companies are no exception......"
After a pause, Yamamoto continued, "Actually, my departure is not a good thing for Dingxin Company......
Li Zhejun was stunned suddenly: "How do you say this?" ”
Yamamoto explained, "Mr. President, I have always believed that Miss Weiko is more suitable for this position...... She's smart and alert, and I'm sure she'll do better than I do! ”
"......" Li Zhejun involuntarily stood up from his chair: "Mr. Yamamoto, you are too modest......"
Although, emotionally, he also hopes that Du Xiaowei can take over Yamamoto's position. But, intellectually, he still hoped that Yamamoto would stay.
Yamamoto said with a serious face: "No, I'm not modest!" Compared to Miss Weizi, she knows China better than I do. Through this period of observation, I think Miss Weizi can stand alone...... At this point, I'm sure you know her better than I do! ”
Li Zhejun nodded, he was moved by Yamamoto's sincerity and selflessness: "Mr. Yamamoto...... I admire your selflessness! However, the headquarters ......"
The last time Ye Wanyu left, he recommended it once, but it was rejected by the headquarters, and he was worried about repeating such a mistake.
Yamamoto guessed what Lee Cheol-joon meant: "This...... You don't have to worry. When I return to the headquarters, I will recommend ...... to Mr. Chairman"
As he spoke, he picked up the dispatch order and looked at it: "The headquarters only gave me three days. Looks like I'm going to have to leave tomorrow morning! ”
Li Zhejun said earnestly: "I'll go and talk to the headquarters and ask them to give them a few days of grace." ”
Yamamoto waved his hand: "No need, I can go to the United States the day after tomorrow...... It's just that I don't have time to say goodbye to other colleagues. ”
Li Zhejun said: "No problem, I'll ask Tang Ying to inform them, and we will go to the Marriott Hotel together in the evening to feast for you!" ”
Yamamoto hurriedly shook his head: "Mr. President, you are free of food, right?" I still have some personal business to do in the evening. ”
When Li Zhejun saw him say this, he couldn't insist anymore: "Then tomorrow morning, I'll go with Xiaowei to see you off?" ”
Yamamoto hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
……
Not long after Yamamoto walked out of the office, Du Xiaowei walked in anxiously from the outside with a long ponytail.
Just now, she was printing materials in her office. As soon as Yamamoto returned to the office, he began to pack up his personal belongings. also said that he would hand over the work with her.
Confused her.
She thought that Yamamoto and Li Zhejun had quarreled again, so she hurriedly ran up.
Li Zhejun saw that Du Xiaowei was in a hurry, so he hurriedly got up and gave up his seat. Du Xiaowei was not polite, and as soon as she sat down on the chair, she asked loudly: "Li Zhejun, what's wrong with Mr. Yamamoto, why did he leave?" ”
Li Zhejun was stunned for a moment, and then knew the reason why she came to find him, so he said, "It's nothing...... It is another appointment at headquarters. ”
Du Xiaowei asked: "What kind of appointment, so urgent?" ”
"There is a need for a business executive in North America......
Du Xiaowei was skeptical: "Is it related to what happened last time?" ”
Li Zhejun was silent for a while, and nodded: "Maybe, this is also my guess......"
Du Xiaowei said: "Then why don't you leave him behind?" Mr. Yamamoto didn't do anything wrong. ”
Li Zhejun smiled bitterly: "I also want to keep him." However, this is the decision of the headquarters......"
With tears in the corners of her eyes, Du Xiaowei begged: "Zhejun, isn't your father the chairman?" Go tell him and let him keep Mr. Yamamoto! ”
Li Zhejun sighed: "I have already called him...... He said it was the board's decision and could not be changed......"
Du Xiaowei stared at Li Zhejun tightly: "Is what you said true?" Could it be that you are jealous and want him to go? ”
When Li Zhejun heard this, he was a little anxious: "Xiaowei, what are you talking about...... I've had that thought before. But now, I really want to keep him! ”
Du Xiaowei said: "Then you call your dad again, I want to watch you call!" ”
Li Zhejun thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll try again......" As he spoke, he grabbed the landline on the table, pressed the speakerphone, and dialed his father's phone.
The phone beeped - beeped for a long time, but no one answered. Li Zhejun pulled it out a few more times, and finally got through.
On the phone, Li Haonan asked angrily: "Zhejun, what's the matter with you?" ”
Lee Cheol-jun said, "Dad, I would like to ask you to reconsider Mr. Yamamoto's affairs......"
When Li Haonan heard this, he said loudly: "What is there to consider? This matter has been decided, don't mention it again! After saying that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.
Listening to the rapid beep of the landline, Li Zhejun spread his hands towards Du Xiaowei, and said helplessly: "Miss Du, do you believe me this time?" ”
Du Xiaowei bit her lip and had nothing to say for a while.
At this time, Tang Ying came over with a cup of hot tea. Li Zhejun got up and took it, and put it in front of Du Xiaowei flatteringly.
Du Xiaowei said with tears in her eyes: "I don't drink!" ”
Li Zhejun comforted: "Xiaowei, I know that you have feelings for Mr. Yamamoto...... However, there is no such thing as a feast...... Didn't you say, 'Iron-clad battalions and flowing soldiers'? In fact, the same is true for enterprises...... We have to obey the company's arrangement......"
As he spoke, he pulled a tissue from the table and gave it to her.
Du Xiaowei wiped her tears: "But ......"
Li Zhejun grabbed her hand and said, "Don't do it...... It is a small world. When we meet in the future, there is an opportunity. Listen to me, let's go see him off tomorrow morning! ”
Du Xiaowei knew that she couldn't keep Yamamoto, so she had to nod silently.
