At eight o'clock the next morning, Chen Hao came to the secretariat on time.
The four Li Yans have already arrived, all wearing crisp suits and professional skirts. Xu Xiuli and Hou Shanshan even put on makeup and dressed up carefully.
"Why don't you wear work clothes? Don't you know you have to negotiate with foreign businessmen today?"
Xu Xiuli glanced at Chen Hao, frowned and asked.
Although Chen Hao is also wearing a suit, it is obviously not the same style as them, and it is not a famous brand at first glance.
"My overalls haven't been made yet."
Chen Haodao.
"Then you can change your clothes to a famous brand. We are negotiating with foreign businessmen. They are all people with status and hierarchy. You just wear street clothes. Do you know how to be polite?"
Xu Xiuli raised her voice.
"I think being polite depends on whether your clothes are clean and tidy and your attitude towards others. It has nothing to do with whether you wear a famous brand or not."
Chen Hao said lightly.
"Who are you talking to?"
Xu Xiuli's face changed and she was about to get angry.
"Forget it, Xiuli, you are the main force in the negotiation today, don't let trivial matters affect your energy."
Li Yan advised.
"Chen Hao, don't go to this negotiation. After all, you didn't participate before. Just read and study in the office."
Immediately, Li Yan said to Chen Hao again.
"OK."
Chen Hao didn't care, he wasn't interested in negotiating anyway.
"Are you not angry this time?"
Li Yan smiled at Xu Xiuli in English.
"That's pretty much it."
Xu Xiuli snorted and her expression softened.
At this time, the door opened and Gao Xiyue walked in: "Are you ready? Let's go."
Everyone agreed in unison.
"Chen Hao, why don't you leave?"
Gao Xiyue asked in surprise when she saw that Chen Hao was not moving but sat down to read a book.
"Mr. Gao, Chen Hao doesn't have work clothes, and what he's wearing is not of a famous brand. I'm worried that foreign businessmen will feel rude when they see him, so I won't let him go."
Li Yan explained.
"What does wearing a famous brand have to do with politeness? We are not going to a fashion exhibition."
Gao Xiyue frowned.
Li Yan's face froze: "I just want to be more solemn."
"Wearing a famous brand means being dignified, but not wearing a famous brand means being ungraceful? What kind of logic is this?"
Gao Xiyue said unhappily, "Li Yan, can you focus on the negotiation instead of thinking about these useless things?"
"Yes, Mr. Gao, I was wrong."
Li Yan became disgraced, glanced at Xu Xiuli with a wry smile, and thought, I have suffered on your behalf.
Xu Xiuli's face turned red, her head lowered and she dared not speak.
"Chen Hao, you take my car."
Gao Xiyue said, turned and left.
Chen Hao followed him out.
"I'm sorry, Li Yan, for causing you to be criticized by Mr. Gao."
Xu Xiuli bit her lip and said apologetically.
"fine."
Li Yan waved his hand.
"I won't let you suffer for me in vain."
Xu Xiuli said angrily, "In this negotiation, I will definitely make Chen Hao look good and vent your anger."
"Forget it, Xiuli, don't let this trivial matter affect the negotiation, otherwise the gain will outweigh the loss."
Li Yan shook his head and said.
"Yes, besides, since Mr. Gao is so oriented towards Chen Hao, it won't do any good for you to target him."
Hou Shanshan also advised.
"You don't have to worry about it. I want to see if Mr. Gao can still turn against Chen Hao if he finds trouble in the negotiations."
Xu Xiuli sneered.
…
Chen Hao followed Gao Xiyue to the underground parking lot and entered the royal blue Lamborghini.
"Have you had a romantic time with your girlfriend last night?"
Gao Xiyue glanced at him. Although she didn't want to gossip, she couldn't help but ask.
"There's nothing romantic about it, it's just commonplace."
Chen Haodao.
"That's very heartwarming. It's not like me, who is rejected by someone and can only eat instant noodles alone."
Gao Xiyue snorted, looking very resentful.
Chen Hao smiled awkwardly and suddenly had an idea: "That's why I came with you today."
"You are at work, why are you accompanying me?"
Gao Xiyue Qi Dao.
"Although I am at work, as long as I can be with the smart, outstanding and beautiful CEO, I feel extremely happy. I feel like I have been given a shot of chicken blood. I am passionate about everything I do and feel that life is particularly meaningful. Isn't that right?
Is it the most romantic companionship?"
Chen Hao said seriously.
"You kid can talk."
Although Gao Xiyue knew that he was flattering him, she still felt very satisfied and could not help but smile on her cold and pretty face.
Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that my desire to survive is quite strong...
At this time, Li Yan and four others also came to the parking lot and got into another car.
The two cars drove out of the parking lot, one behind the other.
More than an hour later, they arrived in front of a modern factory in the suburbs.
There were more than a dozen men and women standing in front of the factory. In the middle was a foreigner in his fifties, with blond hair and blue eyes. He wore a white suit and a neat and sleek slicked back hair. He looked quite stylish.
Chen Hao and others got off the bus.
"Welcome to the CEO of Xiyue Group and all our friends."
A young man wearing glasses greeted him enthusiastically, pointed at the foreigner and introduced, "This is Mr. Jackson John, the chairman of the pharmaceutical company, and I am his assistant and translator Liu Zhenze."
"Hello, Mr. John."
Gao Xiyue stretched out her hand politely.
"Hello, Miss Gao, you are really, really beautiful."
A look of surprise flashed in Mr. John's eyes, he made a rather classic gentlemanly courtesy, and then spoke in less than standard Chinese.
"Thank you Mr. John."
Gao Xiyue said, "Looking at your etiquette, you should be from a London aristocracy, right?"
"Mr. Gao has great eyesight!"
Liu Zhenze's face was filled with pride, "Mr. John is an orthodox London aristocrat and was granted the title of Baron by the British royal family. Mr. John's family still follows the ancient rituals passed down from the Middle Ages."
Gao Xiyue nodded, turned back and pointed at Li Yan and others: "Mr. John, this is my team."
"Hello, Mr. John, my name is Li Yan, and I am Mr. Gao's secretary."
Li Yan quickly stepped forward and introduced himself in English.
"Hello."
Mr. John shook hands with him. Although he was polite, he was not as enthusiastic as he was with Gao Xiyue.
No one was surprised. After all, his identity may be special to Gao Xiyue, but of course it is of no use to others.
Xu Xiuli walked up to her, showed a sweet smile, and extended her hand: "Hello, Mr. John, my name is Xu Xiuli, and I am also Mr. Gao's secretary. I once studied in the UK, and I feel very cordial when I hear your London accent."
She also said hello in English, and deliberately used a self-taught London accent in an attempt to shorten the distance.
However, when Mr. John heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he simply shook hands with her and did not speak.
"Mr. John, I admire the British aristocratic culture very much. I hope to have the opportunity to go to the UK again in the future and visit your family. This will be my greatest honor."
Xu Xiuli didn't notice the change in the other person's expression. She still held hands and spoke in a calm manner.
