Ruth is Ying Annie's college classmate, but it is actually more accurate to say that she is an alumni.

She is two years older than Ying Annie, but they met in college. And Ruth has always had contact with Ying Annie after graduation, and both parties are good friends (best friends).

Ruth used to work in a large multinational enterprise, and her position was not high, which was the level of an ordinary supervisor.

This time, Annie Ying wanted to find someone to stand at the front desk. The first thing she thought of Ruth was that she called Ruth across the country in China and briefly told her about her in China. After learning about this, Ruth said that

He was very interested. When Annie Ying rushed back to the United States to meet Ruth and talked about the specific situation with her, Ruth submitted her resignation letter to the company the next day and followed Annie Ying to China as quickly as possible.

After meeting Song Yuanchao, Ying Annie introduced the two parties. After they met, they sat down and started talking.

Song Yuanchao's English is sloppy, his writing is OK, and his speaking is only unsatisfactory. As for Ruth, he can't even understand Chinese, he can only say a few simple sentences such as "Hello", "Have you eaten?" "I've eaten it."

"These words, and their pronunciations are strange, and when they hear Song Yuanchao, they understand that they must have been taught by Annie on the way.

The two of them did not let Ying Annie be the translator, and they directly talked to each other in this way. Although it was a bit difficult, it was quite interesting. Moreover, both parties could also practice speaking while understanding each other in this way.

Originally, Song Yuanchao did not have much extravagant expectations for Ruth, because he asked Annie Ying to find a Westerner just to show it to others. In the process of the joint venture, it was more attractive to the local area in the name of Westerners and foreign capital.

The same is true after more than ten or twenty years, not to mention the early stages of reform and opening up.

But after chatting with Ruth, Song Yuanchao found that Ruth still has real materials. After all, she is a top student who graduated from Ivy League University and has certain working experience in the company. She is not unfamiliar with the food industry.

Some of the views and opinions about the market are very clear, but Song Yuanchao also understood from the conversation that Ruth knew nothing about the domestic market and policies. Some business ideas were seriously dissatisfied with the domestic market. If copied, they would definitely come up with it.

Big problem.

Song Yuanchao discussed with her. At first, Ruth was not convinced, but with Song Yuanchao's question and assumption, Ruth gradually restrained her previous contempt for Song Yuanchao, and she couldn't help but think about some issues. In the end,

It is probably right to admit that Song Yuanchao is indeed a bit inconsistent with the actual situation in the country.

Song Yuanchao was still satisfied with Ruth as a whole, especially her understanding of the internal structure of multinational enterprises and enterprises is the talent he needs at present. Moreover, Ruth also has a foreign background, and her face occupies a large number of domestic.

Convenience, as for the character, Song Yuanchao believes in Ying Annie's vision, and in the next cooperation, Song Yuanchao will also examine Ruth's personality and practical ability. If Song Yuanchao feels that she is not competent for this position, then as one of the bosses

He has every right to ask her to leave.

After passing the "interview", Song Yuanchao made the decision to keep Ruth, which made Ruth and Ying Annie very happy.

Finally, Song Yuanchao told Ruth to learn Chinese as soon as possible, but before removing him and Ying Annie, he could only use a few simple greetings to others that he learned now. As for the rest, in English, don't let anyone know that she understands.

Chinese.

In addition, he asked Ruth to look arrogant when facing other people. Of course, this arrogance is not actually looking down on others, but rather a superior attitude exuding from his bones. He also has to carry Bin in his arrogance.

Bin is polite, this is what the role she plays must do.

"Is it the attitude of a British gentleman?" Ruth was very smart and understood at first glance.

"Yes! It's the kind of gentlemanly and polite with a noble aura, but it makes people feel difficult to get close to." Song Yuanchao nodded and said.

Ruth thought for a while and said, "I understand, I think I can do this, but is it necessary to do this?"

"Of course there is a need. It is difficult to explain the specific reason in a few words. You just need to follow this requirement. You will understand after waiting for a long time." Song Yuanchao did not want to explain more to Ruth on this issue, especially

It was to explain the reason for this to a Western woman. Maybe it was because of self-esteem. In fact, Song Yuanchao himself didn't want to do this, but reality told him that doing this would be of great benefit to the company and he had to do it.

Ruth nodded thoughtfully. She seemed to have noticed something, but she didn't say anything. Her intelligence satisfied Song Yuanchao. It seemed that Ying Annie had found a good candidate for the front office.

"Okay boss, so I passed the interview?" Ruth asked with a wink.

Song Yuanchao nodded: "It can be said that he is qualified at present, but the specific work will depend on your ability in the future. If your ability is not competent for the work, you will understand the result."

"Ok, this is very reasonable, so I want to ask about my specific position and salary in the company, as well as the scope of work I need to do." Ruth asked bluntly.

Song Yuanchao had discussed this with Ying Annie in private before. Since Ying Annie brought Ruth, he must have talked about these issues with Ruth. Ruth's inquiry with Song Yuanchao now is just confirming it again.

Immediately, Song Yuanchao explained her position, treatment and work scope in detail. After Song Yuanchao finished speaking, Ruth nodded with satisfaction, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she stood up and stretched out her hand to Song Yuanchao: "You

I am a good boss and I am very happy to work with you. I hope we can cooperate happily in the future.”

"I am very happy too. Welcome you Miss Ruth." Song Yuanchao stood up and shook hands with her.

There are rules for men and women to shake hands. First, the lady must stretch her hands first. If the lady does not stretch her hands, it is very rude for men to stretch her hands first. Second, it is a false grasp when shaking hands, that is, it is a light grip and let go.

The kind that is usually gay, and the kind that is full of enthusiasm, only holding hands for a long time without letting go, is rarely seen in international social etiquette.

This is how Song Yuanchao shook hands. He respected the other party's gender very much and quickly let go with a slight grip.

This small detail made Ruth feel more affection for Song Yuanchao. She smiled and asked if Song Yuanchao had a girlfriend. If possible, they might be able to try dating. She had never been in love with an Asian man before.

This idea, but now I suddenly have this idea, especially if the other party is Song Yuanchao, maybe this will be a very good emotional experience.

Ruth's boldness and straightforwardness made Song Yuanchao laugh. If it were the case, I would have been blushing when I heard this, and I didn't even know where to put my hands.

But Song Yuanchao was different. He also saw the boldness of Western women in later generations. When Ruth said this, he not only did not get angry, but instead felt that Ruth was a little interesting.

"Can these words be considered praise to me?" Song Yuanchao asked with a smile.

"Of course, then do you accept my suggestions?" Ruth's eyes looked over and did not avoid Song Yuanchao's gaze, with a hint of expectation in her smile.

"Thank you for your praise, but unfortunately I am married and I just had a lovely child. I love my wife very much. I think I will spend my life with her until the moment I walk into the grave together."

A trace of surprise flashed in Ruth's eyes, and Song Yuanchao's answer surprised her a little.

"You are a noble person. I wish you, your wife and your lovely children happiness. God, what an enviable love! Boss, I apologize to you for your hasty just now." Ruth sincerely said

Said.

Waving his hand, Song Yuanchao said, "Those who do not know are not guilty, and it is my honor to have a beautiful girl like you give me such praise. I accept your apology and also give you the most sincere wishes in love.

”

Hearing this, Ruth was as happy as a child and grinned.

Considering Ruth's identity, appearance and subsequent joint venture plans, Ruth did not live in the Ying family's old house, but the company came forward to book a few of the best suites in the best hotel in Jinling as Ruth's temporary

Residence and the residence and temporary office location of Shenghua Company team.

The day after Ying Annie returned to Jinling, Song Yuanchao found Lin Daoyuan and told him that the people from the American company had arrived and what the results were after the joint venture plan submitted earlier were discussed.

Lin Daoyuan was also a little surprised that the person arrived so quickly, and the issue of joint ventures is still being discussed. Although there are many joint ventures in China, the problem is that most of these joint ventures are in big cities such as Yanjing, Shanghai or Yangcheng.

and southern cities close to the SAR.

There is no joint venture in Jinling, so some comrades can't help but have some concerns about the issue of joint ventures. Some old comrades feel that they finally drove away the capitalists, but now they have to invite the capitalists back. They are also foreign capitalists. From a relationship, they are emotionally

It really can't accept it.

Can't the business be run without foreign capitalists? Isn't this the case in China over the years? Even in the most difficult situation, it was blocked and targeted by some countries, it still relies on its own efforts.

Many achievements.

Isn’t this how the two bombs and one satellite and many other achievements that shocked the world? Without Zhang, butcher Zhang, he would eat a pig with hair? It’s just a joke!

There is such resistance, and it is not just one or two. In addition, although Jinling is a provincial capital, the atmosphere of openness is really limited compared to those cities near Shanghai, Hai, Yanjing and even the south, and there are more conservative cadres.

Therefore, the discussion on the issue of joint venture is very fierce, and there are also many comrades who hold different views. Although Lin Daoyuan emphasized the current series of serious problems of enterprises and the focus of national reform and opening up at the meeting, it explained that joint ventures for enterprises and

The benefits of local development are still unstoppable. Some old comrades who still don’t agree with it.

In the end, the top leader had to make the decision on this matter personally. After listening to Lin Daoyuan's report carefully, the top leader decided to find time to see Song Yuanchao first, and then make a decision.

Song Yuanchao came just in time today. Even if Song Yuanchao didn't come, Lin Daoyuan would call him to come.
