Chapter 389: Meet the Big Guy
Kitajima smiled bitterly when he heard this, the last time Marin and Iwasaki Ryosuke met unexpectedly outside his office, the two were already incompatible, but Marin also deliberately revealed to Iwasaki Ryosuke that the old man Iwasaki wanted to see him, and it was Kitajima who contributed to this.
All of a sudden, Ryosuke Iwasaki even hated Kitajima.
Despite Kitajima's best efforts to explain, there is still a slight gap between him and Ryosuke Iwasaki, and it is difficult to resolve.
With Kitajima's talent, he can naturally see that Marin is deliberately provoking his relationship with Ryosuke.
Now Marin actually deliberately mentioned this matter and apologized to him, which was quite a taste of schadenfreude, and Kitajima said with some complaints:
"Miss Ma, I said you didn't mean it last time, and now between me and Ryosuke, alas!"
Hearing this complaint, Marin expected that Beidao would definitely be sad in the near future
After all, with Ryosuke's mentality that flaws must be reported, I'm afraid it was for Kitajima's face.
Marin smiled again:
"Mr. Kitajima, don't blame me for being outspoken, in fact, Ryosuke is a small person, and if the Iwasaki family really hands him over to inherit, I'm afraid the future development is worrying. And you, it's good that Ryosuke Iwasaki needs your help now, and once he takes power in the future, he will definitely see you as a threat. This guy is simply a jealous villain, I'm afraid that after he officially takes over the Mitsubishi Foundation, he won't be able to tolerate you. ”
This statement undoubtedly poked Kitajima's worries, and now he has also discovered the fatal short-sightedness of Ryosuke, because narrow-minded people are destined to not tolerate the help of meritocracy...
Kitajima glanced at Marin with a "resentful", which seemed to mean that if it weren't for Marin's mouth, the relationship between him and Ryosuke might not have developed into the current stiff situation.
"Hey, hey, Kitajima, don't look at me like that." Marin smiled:
"I think you should know it yourself, even if you don't have me, Ryosuke and you will definitely be able to live in peace?"
"Alas"
Kitajima sighed again, because he knew that Marin was right, even if there was no Marin to sow discord, with Iwasaki Ryosuke's stubbornness, he and he would have a disagreement sooner or later, so as to unload the mill and kill the donkey.
It's just that he has worked hard at Mitsubishi for many years, how can he easily give up the position he was fortunate to come back from and start from scratch?
Listen to Marin again:
"Kitajima, I think you should also think about the way forward for yourself while Mr. Iwasaki is still in power. I know that in the Iwasaki family, Mr. Iwasaki has appeared, and other people don't have a good impression of you, and after Iwasaki retires in the future, even if Ryosuke is not in charge, but other people in the Iwasaki family, I believe you won't be treated as before. Especially if you are assisting Ryosuke Iwasaki now, if someone else defeats Ryosuke Iwasaki and inherits the Iwasaki family, your situation will be even more difficult. ”
Kitajima's face changed, as Marin said, he is now assisting Ryosuke Iwasaki, but this group of bastards is by no means a master, even if he takes over the Winning Consortium in the future, he will definitely not tolerate him.
If Ryosuke loses this succession war and someone else takes over the family, then Kitajima, as Ryosuke Iwasaki's military advisor, will definitely be purged.
Therefore, the current situation is that whether Ryosuke succeeds the patriarch or someone else wins, he Kitajima is destined not to be a beneficiary.
Now that the old man Iwasaki is in power, it is good to say that no one dares to do anything to Kitajima, and as long as Iwasaki retreats, Kitajima will immediately become the target of public criticism.
"Mr. Kitajima, you are known as the Emperor of Workers in Dongying, but no matter how good you are or how loyal you are to the Iwasaki family, in the eyes of those people in the Iwasaki family, you are just a house slave after all." Marin hit the nail on the head.
The word "house slave" was like a thunderbolt from the sky, which made Kitajima's whole body tremble, and his heart was suddenly bitter.
Yes, he is diligent and loyal, and he has paid too much effort for the Iwasaki family, and in the end, what he got in exchange was just the word house slave!
Is it all worth it? Kitajima couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, he had never thought about this question before.
Really, he has entered the Mitsubishi Foundation since graduating from university, starting from a low level, working hard, and he has actually looked down on all kinds of gains and losses, but he has an extremely firm belief to support him and display his lifelong talent.
However, Marin's heartfelt words today are tantamount to a slap in the face, saying that his bad vision was shattered, and Beidao, who was sunk in a dream, woke up!
"Hehe, is it all in vain what I have worked so hard for?" Kitajima smiled bitterly in his heart.
While they were thinking, the two of them had arrived at the door of Iwasaki's office before they knew it.
In front of the office sat a blonde woman in a slip dress, who looked like Iwasaki's secretary.
When the girl saw Marin and Beidao, she immediately stood up, bowed slightly to the two of them in a dignified manner to show respect, and then said in fluent Dongying dialect:
"Mr. Kitajima, Miss Ma, and Mr. Iwasaki are already waiting for you, please come in."
Kitajima didn't care about what Marin had just said at this time, so he quickly gathered his mind and walked into Iwasaki's office with Marin under the leadership of the secretary.
The office is very large, more than 100 square meters, and the decoration is even more luxurious and elegant.
The furniture imported from Italy is like a work of art, and on the east side of the office is a huge floor-to-ceiling glass with a wide desk in front of the glass, and an energetic old man is sitting at the desk to review documents, and it is naturally the Toei business legend, Yataro Iwasaki.
"Mr. Iwasaki, Mr. Kitajima, and Miss Ma are here." The secretary said like a silver bell.
When Iwasaki heard this, he raised his head, turned his gaze from the document on the table to Marin and Kitajima, and then showed a kind smile:
"You're here."
"Hello, Mr. Iwasaki." Marin smiled slightly.
"Hello, hello." Iwasaki immediately stood up, walked around the desk and came to Marin, then held her hand tightly, and said with a smile:
"Miss Ma, I have admired you for a long time, I wanted to meet you some time ago, but I am entangled in mundane things, and I have never been able to spare time, and I will not have this opportunity until today. Hehe, I'll meet you today, it won't prevent you from going on vacation, right? ”
Marin smiled:
"Our company is also on holiday today, so you and Iwasaki-san still have plenty of time."
"Haha..."Iwasaki laughed when he heard this:
"Okay, okay, if it doesn't interfere with your family's reunion, come, sit here, Jessica, go and brew the black tea I brought back from North America last time and let Miss Ma give it a try."
The secretary named Jessica twisted her ass as she was ordered, and Marin wondered if the old man was a bit perverted.
Because he is a conservative old man, he actually uses a North American woman as a secretary, and the key is that this female secretary is still very beautiful.
As we all know, North America and Dongying have fought before, and the latter lost a lot, and will the old man Iwasaki rely on the money to avenge his revenge?
Soon, Marin forgot all about it, and saw that she sat down on the Italian leather sofa in the center of the office at Iwasaki's invitation, with Iwasaki sitting across from her and Kitajima standing honestly behind Iwasaki.
After Marin sat down, he smiled at Iwasaki:
"I have long admired Mr. Iwasaki, you are a great name, in Toei and even in the world, Mr. Iwasaki, you are a veritable tycoon, including me, I don't know how many people have made Mr. Iwasaki a goal to strive for."
"Miss Ma, you are too complimentary, in fact, I am just an old guy who likes to fish, fish and hunt, and I don't have a few more eyes or noses than others." Iwasaki laughed.
After the two exchanged a few words, the old man Yanqi gradually began to knock on the side:
"Miss Ma, I heard from Beidao that your plan is very good. By the way, and your courier red, it is no exaggeration to say that you are the brightest star in the business world this year, especially if you are still so young, the future achievements are really limitless. ”
