031 Restaurant Chance Encounter (Ask for Recommendation!) Collection! )
At the end of July, it was still in the thirties during the day, but it suddenly became milder at night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the cool breeze, you can't find the heat of summer at all.
The straight-line distance back to the hotel is actually not far from Facebook, but because it is distributed in different bay areas and blocked by the sea, there are many detours. He hailed a taxi, drove through the undersea tunnel, and got off at the high street near the hotel. Somehow attending a party, inexplicably talking to him for a long time, he needs to walk alone and think about the next road.
Chen Wenhao blew the night breeze and strolled on the sidewalk. This area belongs to the commercial center of the city, and the road is lined with towering commercial buildings, which are brightly lit at night, and it is a bustling scene. Looking behind the glass windows of commercial buildings, it was a familiar life from his previous ten years of professional history.
He has been to this city several times, each time for a longer or shorter time, but he has never found a feeling, and the biggest impression is that on this small island, there are many skyscrapers like a forest, and there are matchbox-like residential buildings. Many people's lives are a daily line between a building and a residential building.
It wasn't until he met Xiaoka that there was a different path in life. Although the time is short, it is gradually moving away on this new road.
The stomach was rumbling in protest, and I basically didn't eat anything at the previous banquet, and my saliva was consumed a lot. Look at the time, it's a little late for dinner, it's too early for supper, but don't care about this, he found a random tea restaurant on the side of the road, and found a vacant seat by the window after entering.
"Mr. Chen?" Not long after he sat down, he heard someone behind him who seemed to be calling him.
Looking back, there was indeed a familiar person at the table next door, "Lawyer Dai, such a coincidence", the female lawyer I just met in the morning was sitting alone.
"Mr. Chen is also a person? If you don't mind, let's go along, I've just arrived, and I haven't ordered yet. Perhaps because she was not in a formal setting, her attitude was much more relaxed and casual.
"Lawyer Dai, are you eating dinner or supper?"
"I just finished working overtime, so I came over for a bite to eat. Is it the first time Mr. Chen has been here? Then I recommend the fish ball powder, this one is very delicious. Dai Yuqian's eyes flickered, "It's Mr. Chen's supper at this point, it's a little early." ”
"Okay, let's try this fish ball powder. By the way, overtime won't be because of the plan I want, right? ”
"Correct." Dai Yuqian smiled and said, "But don't be embarrassed, for our industry, overtime is part of the work, if there is no overtime, it means that it is not far from being eliminated." ”
Dai Yuqian picked up the commuter bag beside her, "The plan has been made, are you interested in listening to me now." ”
"We'll talk about it tomorrow. Otherwise, others don't know, and they still think that I squeeze your labor. Chen Wenhao shook his hand and said.
"Mr. Chen thinks too much, and your willingness to listen is the affirmation of my work." Dai Yuqian answered quickly.
Chen Wenhao couldn't help but complain, the workaholic is really a terrible creature, he patted his forehead with his hand, "Okay, I'll be honest, in fact, I want to be lazy, and I don't want to touch work-related things today." ”
"I accept this explanation." Dai Yuqian smiled and put the commuter bag back in place, "Okay, we'll talk at the law firm tomorrow morning." ”
Suddenly, there was a silence between the two. After all, the two only met today, and if they don't talk about business, it's not easy to find a topic to talk about.
"I heard that Lawyer Dai is from Beijing, and Norton Rock's has a branch in Beijing, why did Lawyer Dai choose to stay in Xiangjiang?" Chen Wenhao casually found a topic, and after asking, he felt a little shallow and profound.
The other party didn't care, and replied crisply, "When I was in school, my major was biased towards British and American business law, and it was more suitable to stay in Xiangjiang." However, we work closely with each other in the Asia Pacific region, and if Mr. Chen chooses Roche, his colleagues in the Mainland office will also provide professional legal services. ”
"Lawyer Dai is really dedicated, and he doesn't forget to promote his company when he eats." Chen Wenhao smiled and said, "When I see Henry again, I must propose that he give you a raise." ”
Dai Yuqian covered her mouth and chuckled, "It's me who is wrong, I said that I won't talk about business, I must be invited to this meal today, it can be regarded as making amends." ”
There is still some time before the time of supper, there are not many people in the tea restaurant, the LCD TV hanging on the wall is tuned to the news and financial channel, and a male host in a suit and leather shoes is broadcasting the latest financial news, and the voice echoes clearly in the store.
As soon as a news story ended, the male anchor suddenly touched the earphones on his ears with his hand and paused for a few seconds. Then he said, "Now for the latest financial news." ”
"Facebook, the world's largest social networking site, officially announced that it has reached a cooperation agreement with a company in Chinese mainland, with a contract value of up to $5 billion." The male anchor spoke quickly, "There have been rumors in the securities market for a long time, and Facebook submitted relevant information to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on the day the cooperation agreement was reached. A number of media outlets even broke the news that the CEO of Facebook suddenly appeared in Chinese mainland. ”
"This mainland company called Infinite Future Technology is not well-known, but its product is familiar to everyone, which is the world's most popular small card translation software. Through this partnership, Facebook has obtained exclusive licenses and customizations to enable automatic translation in multiple languages within the website. How did the market react to Facebook's decision? ”
As soon as the TV screen turned, a time-sharing chart of Facebook stocks appeared, and the anchor's voiceover continued, "Ten minutes ago, the NASDAQ opened in the United States, and Facebook stocks were sharply rally as soon as they opened, and they are currently up 4.7%. Based on Facebook's latest market capitalization of $360 billion, this rally alone is worth the contract amount. Next, we asked Mr. Lang, an expert on U.S. stocks, to conduct an in-depth analysis. ”
Ignoring the fact that the expert on the TV was still chattering, both of them looked back. Dai Yuqian looked at Chen Wenhao deeply with her eyes.
"What? Do I have flowers on my face? Chen Wenhao was a little uncomfortable.
"It's the first time I've sat so close to a billionaire, so I have to take a good look at it." After Dai Yuqian finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing and raised her teacup, "The conditions are limited, so I will use tea instead of wine to congratulate!" ”
"Look, I just made some money, so I'll do this meal." Chen Wenhao was joking, but he felt that Dai Yuqian, who had removed the shell of the "White Bone Essence", looked much more lively and interesting.
"I don't know if it's my delusion, Mr. Chen doesn't seem to care much about this $5 billion deal?" Dai Yuqian brushed the hair scattered in front of her ears with her fingers and asked curiously.
"Maybe it's more of a confusion." Chen Wenhao waved his hand, ignoring Dai Yuqian's curious gaze, "The food is here, I'm almost hungry." ”
The two didn't talk during the meal, and after a silent dinner, Chen Wenhao sent Dai Yuqian to the taxi home, thought about it before saying goodbye, and said, "If you can, send me the plan by email later, tonight's lazy plan is estimated to be in vain, and there are more lice and no itching, so we will deal with it together in time." ”
In the back of the taxi, Dai Yuqian leaned quietly on the back of the seat, but in her mind she was replaying what Chen Wenhao said just now. Because of her work, she has met many business elites, especially young elites, who are not high-spirited and instructive. But it was the first time I saw a person who won a contract of half a billion US dollars, and he used the word "confused" to describe himself.
Unconsciously, she became interested in him.
