Chapter 16: Naobu Sato
Gu Guoqiang sat in his big office that had just been renovated in August, and the strange events and great changes that had happened in the past year made him sigh the ups and downs of life. The employees of the newly established companies have basically been in place, but the general manager of the public relations company has not been able to find a suitable candidate, and then he suddenly remembered a person, this person is named Naobu Sato.
Naobu Sato was met by Gu Guoqiang at a Japanese advertising agency where he worked before, about thirty years old, and his Chinese words were okay, but a little blunt, and he was sent from the Japanese headquarters to be in charge of the public relations department here. Gu Guoqiang actually hated the Japanese from the bottom of his bones, and remembered that his mother told him when he was a child, that an aunt in his mother's hometown in Hebei was shot and killed by Japanese soldiers on the mountain beam, because his memory was very vague, Gu Guoqiang only remembered hatred, and did not dare to ask his mother for details, for fear of causing the old man to be sad. I was introduced by a friend to work in a Japanese company, and Gu Guoqiang was unemployed at that time, so why not earn Japanese money to support the Chinese. After several interviews, Gu Guoqiang went to work. After going to work, Gu Guoqiang found that the original Japanese are no longer small people, and the few he has seen are relatively tall and short, and the young Japanese are relatively tall, similar to the figure of the people in northern China. And they are indeed very polite, the men wear dark suits and ties all day long, and the women are also suits, everyone is like a workaholic; However, the Chinese executives in the company are all arrogant and look invincible, compared to Gu Guoqiang, who has some new understanding of the Japanese.
However, one thing has changed the new understanding of the strength of the ancient country. There is a Japanese man named Hirotomo Yamamura, who is in his twenties, and he is also in the public relations department, and there are five Chinese employees in this department. For some reason, once this mountain village scolded a Chinese clerk "Baga", and it is said that he also beat him, or it may have been a rumor after the incident, but in any case, it happened. In fact, if it were an ordinary person, the matter would not be very serious, and Gu Guoqiang also quarreled with the Hong Kong people in his department, but the problem is that Hiroshi Yamamura is Japanese.
This incident has caused a lot of repercussions in the company and even in the advertising circle, and the rumors have added fuel to the fire, what: "The Japanese often scold 'Ba Ge Yalu' in the company, and often incite Chinese employees to slap them, and they have all spread the word." At first, the company didn't take it too seriously, but then the company couldn't resist the pressure, so it had to transfer Yamamura back to the Tokyo headquarters, and for this reason, it also delayed the public relations activities that a major client was executing, and the company lost a lot of money.
said that this incident is mainly because Naobu Sato's performance in this incident left a relatively good impression on Gu Guoqiang. In fact, the Chinese clerk in this incident is called Wang Lei, and Gu Guoqiang had some work contact, and the quarrel at work developed into a well-known incident Wang Lei did not expect, according to Wang Lei later, he did not suffer, if according to the fist and foot, he even took advantage, because he taught the mountain village a hard lesson, and as soon as the "Baga" of the mountain village was exported, he rushed up, chiseled his fist fiercely on the head of the mountain village Guangzhi, and kicked a few times, until he was pulled away by others, and finally sent him a few words of national scolding. According to the company's rules and regulations, Wang Lei should be fired for beating people, and he was also pushed back by Sato to ask for the company's advice, and then the matter gradually passed and did not expand again, which has a certain relationship with Sato's intervention.
Later, because of the relationship between work, advertising companies, that is, there are many meetings, various departments often sit together for various meetings, Gu Guoqiang and Sato Naobu also had some contact, and learned that his wife is Shanghainese, and Sato himself is very humble and easy-going, and the future exchanges will gradually increase, sometimes at noon, the two of them will go to the revolving sushi restaurant to eat Japanese food, and go to the old Beijing restaurant to eat fried noodles.
Naobu Sato was the right person to manage a PR agency, and Ko decided to hire him after thinking about it. It just so happened that Wang Lei had been hired by Gu Guoqiang as the director of the event execution department of the public relations company, and the two acquaintances should have a more tacit understanding in their work.
When Mr. Sato arrived at Mr. Gu's office, Mr. Gu was in a meeting with his newly appointed senior executives. Because he hadn't talked to Sato in detail, Gu Guoqiang simply introduced him to everyone and asked everyone to go back to work first.
Sitting across from Gu Guoqiang's desk, Naobu Sato understood the reason why Gu Guoqiang invited him for an interview. Sato Naoshin fingers gently scraped the bridge of his straight nose as if thinking about it, Gu Guoqiang did not rush to urge him to make a decision, but turned around to the desk on the right, and began to make tea unhurriedly in front of a set of gaiwan tea sets, when Gu Guoqiang scraped off the foam with the lid and began to clean the small tea bowl with the first tea soup, the fragrant and fragrant smell of the tea soup made Sato Naobu probe his upper body and asked, "Yes, Anxi Tieguanyin, right?" ”
Gu Guoqiang smiled and said: "Yes, Mr. Sato is worthy of being a master of tea tasting, and he smelled it before he tasted it, this is Anxi Tieguanyin Spring Tea, brought by a friend, and I brewed it with pure water at 90 degrees." Saying that the tea soup had been poured into the teacup for the second time, Sato took the teacup handed over by Gu Guoqiang, stared at the golden tea for a while, and then deeply smelled the rich tea aroma of spring tea, and then slowly poured it into his mouth and tasted it.
The two chatted while drinking tea, and by the time the fifth tea was over, Naobu Sato had already accepted Gu Guoqiang's invitation and agreed to be the general manager of Sequan's public relations.
After sending Sato away, Gu Guoqiang was satisfied with a new tea and began to enjoy his victory alone, and he was able to dig up the person he wanted from a world-renowned company without a lot of twists and turns, which made Gu Guoqiang feel full of ambition and ready to do a big job. At this time, he suddenly remembered Cai Zhiqiang, this young man he liked very much, and almost forgot the prize he promised him, he hurriedly called the secretary Wang Xiaohui who had just been hired, and asked her to buy a Connie F1 SLR camera, plus a 200mm autofocus lens to send to Cai Zhiqiang's residence. This is Gu Guoqiang's character, if you want anyone to feel happy, then let him feel happy to death, and Gu Guoqiang has always believed that if he promised a friend, even if he just promised a stranger, there should always be a result, even if it is not done, there should be a reasonable explanation, if there is no news, Gu Guoqiang feels that even human beings cannot be counted.
