【Chapter 79】Being the President?
"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lee. Tao Qianyun reached out his hand and shook hands with Li Xiaochen in a friendly manner.
After a few polite words, Li Xiaochen followed Melzak and sat opposite Tao Qianyun, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Because Tao Qianyun always stared at him, as if he had seen some rare treasure.
However, as a majestic man who shoulders the heavy responsibility of getting the other party's heart, and for the sake of the white flowers and shiny four thousand dollars, he must grit his teeth and endure it.
Next, Melzak talked to Tao Qianyun about theme park planning and investment. Li Xiaochen had never been exposed to this kind of business meeting, and only heard that they had a disagreement on the architectural model.
As for the rest, he was in a fog and didn't quite understand.
After lengthy discussions, they finally reached a verbal agreement that had no legal effect.
The pleasant handshake between the two also marked the progress of the first communication on the theme park project. In terms of concrete implementation, there are still a lot of things waiting for both sides to do.
Li Xiaochen, who was completely a layman, yawned and almost fell asleep.
"Mr. Melzak, I intend to attach an article to the agreement: I hope that this Mr. Li can be the president of the Shenzhou region of our company Shanniwei. This sentence suddenly made the drowsy Li Xiaochen sleepy.
"What!" the two words exclaimed from the mouths of the two men in the negotiation room at the same time.
"President?" Li Xiaochen and Melzak pronounced in unison.
Li Xiaochen was at a loss and couldn't figure out the situation. Just talked about it well. Why did it come to you all of a sudden?
What does Shanniwei do in the company? The president is such a high-ranking position. Can an inexperienced hairy boy be competent?
"You're not kidding, are you?" Melzak sneered, unable to believe what Tao Qianyun had just said.
Tao Qianyun hugged his arms: "We are also old acquaintances." Do you think I'm joking?"
Melzak looked at Li Xiaochen, who was also at a loss beside him, and then shifted his gaze back to Tao Qianyun: "He is too young, and he doesn't have any experience as president. The most important thing is that he is still a college student. Isn't it a good fit to be the president of your company?"
Li Xiaochen hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, I don't know anything about Channiwei, I'm afraid I will mess up your company." ”
Tao Qianyun smiled and asked, "Since you don't know Channiwei, why can you conclude that you can't do it?"
Li Xiaochen hurriedly said: "But, just like the dean said, with my current ability, I can't do it at all......"
"No one is born with anything. Competence can be cultivated. The important thing is your choice - are you willing to become the president of Shanniwei's company?" Tao Qianyun took out two contracts from his briefcase and handed them to Li Xiaochen, "If you want, sign here." ”
Li Xiaochen looked down at the contract in his hand and felt a little confused.
It's not clear what exactly this company does, but it's supposed to be a regular company.
As a college student with an unpopular major and who has not yet graduated, he can become the president of a company in one leap.
It stands to reason that this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
But it all came too suddenly. Li Xiaochen was not psychologically prepared, and he also had a lot of questions about this company, and he was even more suspicious of himself.
This was undoubtedly a very important decision in his life.
Tao Qianyun noticed his confusion and said with a smile: "Don't rush to conclusions. The two contracts, one in English and one in Chinese, are exactly the same. You can take it back first and take a good look at it. Wait until you think about it before you contact me. ”
"May I ask a question?" Li Xiaochen looked at her seriously.
"Of course. Tao Qianyun nodded.
"Why did you choose me? Didn't we just meet today? You don't know anything about me. I don't know anything about your company either. You ......"
"I don't know anything about you?" Tao Qianyun held his elbow in one hand. The other hand rests elegantly on his chin. She walked up to Li Xiaochen and walked around him while looking at him.
"Your family is not wealthy. He lost his father when he was a child. There is a mother who is not in good health and a lively and lovely sister at home. You're usually a little careless. If you are not careful enough to do things, there will often be omissions. But once you get serious, you can do the best you can. You're a traditional boy. The personality is more easy-going. If it's not that there's no way out, you don't want to offend someone. In this regard, letting you manage the company will only make Shanniwei uncompetitive. ”
Tao Qianyun walked back in front of Li Xiaochen and continued: "You just want to be a small citizen and earn a similar salary after graduation. For our company, you are not suitable for management. Because a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. You, like most people living at the bottom, have no dreams and only intend to eat and die. Lack of experience is not terrible. The terrible thing is that there is no ambition and no progress. Do you know why you've been so poor, because you've never really changed yourself. Maybe you want to change your life. But say more, do less. Men who talk about their abilities generally don't have any real talents. Letting you be the president of Shanniwei is no different from directly ruining the company. ”
This series of sharp and piercing words and sentences were like sharp daggers, inserted into Li Xiaochen's heart.
He couldn't deny everything Tao Qianyun said. Because that's who he really is.
But Li Xiaochen did not get angry because of this. A person who dares to face his own shortcomings is the real brave.
If someone else says two words and becomes furious, then this person's cultivation is limited, and it will inevitably be difficult to become a great weapon in the future.
Among the six perfections of Buddhism, there is a Prajna Secret, also known as Patience and Humiliation Prajnami, that is, a bodhisattva who practices patience and humiliation, can endure the insults and blows of all sentient beings, and the cold, heat, hunger, and thirst of the outside world.
Cultivating this kind of forbearance and humiliation can cut off the troubles of hatred and sorrow.
The extent of a person's endurance determines how great his future achievements will be.
The sage's patience is infinite, so is his accomplishments.
Li Xiaochen had heard Jiang Mi'er talk about these six kinds of Prajnayama, and he knew how much anger had an impact on his own cultivation.
Cultivation is not only about cultivating the truth and cultivating immortals, but also needs to be implemented in life. Cultivation is to correct one's wrong thoughts and actions.
Li Xiaochen examined his heart, swept away the unhappiness that had already appeared, and asked with a humble smile: "After listening to your words, I am even more confused." Why did you hire me as president when I have so many shortcomings?"
Tao Qianyun nodded slowly, as if affirming something, and looked at him appreciatively: "There are many reasons. Please forgive me for not being able to tell you everything. What can be said though, is that I appreciate your attitude. Now people in society are impetuous. Many people often don't listen to others say bad things about themselves. It's good that you can listen to what I've just said. This proves that you are not narrow-minded and able to listen to other people's opinions. As a leader, this is very important. ”
Only then did Li Xiaochen understand that Tao Qianyun was testing him with words just now.
Now she measured him again with words of praise.
Li Xiaochen didn't dare to show any arrogance, and said humbly: "It's over." ”
Tao Qianyun then made a concluding speech: "I believe that whether a person can improve depends on his own attitude. You are lacking in many ways, but you are able to absorb the advice of others. That alone, that's enough. This is the most important reason why I chose you to be the president of Shanniwei. ”
Li Xiaochen secretly wiped a cold sweat, and had a little more respect for Tao Qianyun, who could see him through.
At the same time, he was also ashamed in his heart.
At this time, Tao Qianyun said again: "In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the reason why Liu Bei was able to divide the world with Cao Cao and Sun Quan was precisely because he, as a leader, was able to listen to the advice of Zhuge Liang, the CEO hired with a high salary. And what caused him to die was precisely because he was reckless and did not listen to the advice and advice of the team. I hope you will think about becoming the president of Shenzhou District of Shanniwei Company and be a qualified leader. ”
The middle-aged beauty looked at her watch, cleaned up the things on the table, and handed Li Xiaochen a business card: "I have other things to do." I hope you can give me a clear answer in five days. ”
After saying that, she gestured to Melzak not to send it far, and walked out.
When she was gone, Li Xiaochen took a breath of air and sat down on the chair: "Mom, it's too tough." She can give me an invisible sense of great oppression, more powerful than my mother. ”
Melzak smiled and said, "If she doesn't have the ability, how can she sit firmly in the second command of Shanniwei?"
Speaking of this, Li Xiaochen seized the opportunity to ask, "Dean, what kind of company is Xiang Niwei?"
"Shaniwei is headquartered in Singapore. Not only do they sell all kinds of fashion items, but they also sell equipment and pills to immortal cultivators. Most of the sophisticated equipment in our film department has to be purchased from Channiwei. Melzak patted Li Xiaochen, "If you really become the president of the Shenzhou District, you will make a lot of money." ”
Li Xiaochen smiled and asked, "What kind of equipment do immortal cultivators need?"
Melzak shook his head and scoffed at his ignorance: "The strength of an immortal cultivator is of course important. But quality gear is also essential. To take the simplest example, in the world of immortal cultivators, almost all immortal cultivators have their own magic weapons. Isn't this just equipment? You know, a powerful magic weapon can often increase one's combat power. ”
Li Xiaochen nodded knowingly. Jiang Mi'er's Ziya Sword, which is known as the strongest blade in the thunder system, isn't it a magic weapon?
At the beginning, in the alley, she was seriously injured, and with a Ziya sword, she repelled two Yang God-level immortal cultivators.
The importance of magic weapons to immortal cultivators can be seen.
"Hearing you say that, Channiwei is a big company with a lot of background?" Li Xiaochen was a little interested in this company, and couldn't help but ask more.
Melzak decided that Li Xiaochen would join the film department sooner or later, so he patiently taught him these common sense: "In the world, it may not be comparable to international fashion brands such as Prada, Chanel, Armani and so on. But in the world of cultivating immortals, Channiway is almost in a monopoly position. Your kid's life is so good, you can actually get Tao Qianyun's appreciation. It's impossible to think about it!"
Of course, Li Xiaochen also felt that this matter was too incredible. But the contract was in his hand, and he couldn't help but believe it.
As long as you sign it, will you be able to soar in the future?
Students, from this chapter onwards, Jiang Mier's background will be gradually revealed. It's about the whole framework and main line of the story.
Guess what she's all about?
By the way, shamelessly begging for flowers, tickets!
