Spring Thunder Chapter 0240 Beauty, Come with Me
After the song was over, polite applause broke out in the restaurant. Nan Ruoyin stood up like a lady and saluted everyone like a princess. Her etiquette made the applause last a little longer.
With her body straight and her hands swinging naturally back and forth, Nan Ruoyin returned to her seat with graceful steps.
"Not bad, you performed very well, my Princess Ruofin."
"Thank you, my Lord Baron Nan Yi."
"You are so rude. I call you a princess and you give me a baron. Shouldn't it be a duke?"
"Hehe, they're all fake anyway."
"I feel disappointed because it's fake. You refused to give me a fake one, so if it was real, you would be even more reluctant to give it up." Nan Yi pretended to be angry.
"Dad, you are becoming more and more stingy. You are Wang Zuo now, and I am Wang Pu. You are hysterical in front of me."
"Don't make a stupid analogy. If you climbed over my head like Wang Pu did, Dad would not call you a pig-dog [similar to the meaning of a dog son, applicable to both children], nor would he deliberately ask you to serve by my side to save face."
During the Song Dynasty, Wang Pu and his father Wang Zuo served in the same dynasty. When Wang Pu was prime minister, his father Wang Zuo stayed at home with the title of Suzhou Defense Envoy. His official position was higher than his father's, so the relationship between the two was very delicate.
Whenever a minister came to his house, he would first pay his respects to Wang Zuo. When Wang Zuo held a banquet to celebrate his birthday, Wang Pu would wear court robes and serve him. The guests did not dare to sit still and would stand up and avoid him.
Wang Zuo would say to the guests: "This is just a pig dog I raised. There is no need to trouble you to get out of the way."
When Wang Zuo was old, Wang Pu advised him to retire, but Wang Zuo refused on the grounds that the current government would not agree.
Finally, Wang Pu made arrangements to allow Wang Zuo to retire early.
When Wang Zuo learned about this, he cursed Wang Pu: "You bastard, you bastard, I am still handsome even in my old age, but you are trying to protect yourself and cut off my career. If I had known, I would have thrown you into the toilet and suffocated you to death."
"Hehe, Dad, where are we going to play tomorrow?"
"There are only a few fun places in New York, so we'll go there from near to far. We'll go to the Empire State Building first, then Fifth Avenue, and then the Metropolitan Museum of Art. On the way back, we'll go to the Museum of Natural History. The day after tomorrow morning we'll go see the Statue of Liberty, and then Wall Street in the afternoon."
"Godfather, what about tonight?"
"You must be tired after playing all day. We won't arrange any activities for you in the evening. You can just watch TV or take a walk in the park downstairs."
"All right."
For the next two days, just as Nan Yi had planned, he took the two little girls to visit several famous attractions in New York.
But on the third day, with the arrival of Ueto Masami, Nan Yi focused his attention on work again.
"How's it going with Yiwu?"
"I invested 600,000 yuan in the Nghe Wu government to build the Huqingmen Market. I also talked to Xie Gaige about the planning blueprint of the small commodity market. He was very interested. However, he also felt that the time was not yet ripe.
Nan Guo Hong Dou established a branch in Yiwu. I asked the company's people to visit the county party committee compound frequently to exchange ideas. I think if Yiwu wants to build a small commodity market in the future, Nan Guo Hong Dou will definitely be considered. "
Ueto Masami briefly introduced the story of Yiwu, and then talked about the story of Yama no Mi.
"President, as you expected, the competition for Matsutake mushrooms this year is quite fierce. The minimum purchase price has risen to 16,000 yen, and we have only won a share of 70 tons. Customers in Tokyo also proposed to renegotiate the supply price with us. They hope that we can reduce the price by 20%."
"Call Mr. Ding Liuyi and tell him to keep an eye on the company's affairs and go to Caiyun Province to smooth things over and see if he can get a bigger share."
"Hayi."
"That's all for today. Go get your jet lag. The room next to the master bedroom is your bedroom."
After sending away Masami, Nan Yi called Johnny and asked him to send another team to New York; then he called Scarlett and asked her to meet him in the evening.
After making the call, he immediately rushed to Lincoln Center.
Nan Yi met Rachel Parsons for the first time in a cafe near Lincoln Center.
"You've earned a lot of salary and commission from me, but this is the first time we meet. Let me introduce you formally, Adam Nan." Nan Yi said, extending his hand to Rachel.
Rachel did not shake hands with Nan Yi, but put her face close to Nan Yi and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "Hello, Adam, I'm Rachel, Rachel Parsons. I'm sure now that you are definitely not my type. So, if you want to compensate me in the future, please give me money directly."
"Come on, it really makes me sad when you say that."
"I think this is good. Having an affair with your boss isn't a good thing, is it?"
"Yeah, I think so too. That's fine, then let's get straight to business. First, I formally invite you to give up your position as senior partner at Sherman Law Firm and work only for me."
"Why, my current situation hasn't delayed your business, has it?"
"Rachel, if you value Sherman's annual dividends, then I can compensate you." Nan Yi said, and added: "Double the compensation."
"It's not just about the money. Sherman means something special to me and I don't want to leave it."
"Okay, let's change the approach. How about I buy Sherman and let you manage it?"
"Will the name be changed after the acquisition?" Rachel was a little tempted.
"No, I know the relationship between Sherman and your family. If the name is changed, what's the point of me buying it? Rachel, I want to buy it for you."
"Thank you Adam for taking me so seriously. Now we can move on to the second part and talk about my treatment."
"An annual salary of $500,000 provides two months of paid annual leave. If you don't have time to take annual leave due to work needs, the annual leave can be accumulated, or you can choose to work overtime at five times the salary."
"It sounds interesting, but not very attractive."
For a law firm partner like Rachel, an increase of $500,000 in annual income is considerable, but it will not bring about a radical change in her life, let alone an improvement in her social class.
"Well, you must listen carefully to what I say next. You know Pan American Investment Holdings. It was originally registered by you. It seemed to exist only on documents before, without much practical significance.
But I want to tell you, it won’t be like that in the future. Pan American Investments will have a series of big moves in North America. Finance, oil and minerals are all areas that Pan American wants to enter.
In less than a year, you can see that Pan American’s valuation is no less than 1 billion US dollars, and this billion-dollar company does not even have a CEO.
Do you understand what I mean when I say this?"
"I'm a candidate?" Rachel asked.
"To be exact, you are the first candidate and the only candidate at the moment."
"Wow, this sounds interesting, but how can I be sure that what you said is true?" Although Rachel was already moved, there were some things she needed to confirm again.
"If you're talking about a billion dollars, then you can wait and see. If you're talking about candidates, then you should ask yourself, can I do it? Am I really qualified to be the CEO of Pan Am?"
Nan Yi said as he picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, then turned his head and looked leisurely through the glass window at the Lincoln Center not far away. In a few days, an orchestra will come to perform at the David Geffen Hall here, so it's time to bring the two little girls over to be influenced by it.
Suddenly, a woman came up to the glass of the coffee shop, first drew a circle of lipstick on her lips facing the reflection of the glass, spread the lipstick evenly with her fingers, then sipped her lips, and then held up the left and right hemispheres of her lips with both hands and pulled them upwards.
The noise was so loud that it caused the plates to move and a Mariana Trench to appear between the hemispheres.
The woman must have been very satisfied with the effect she had created. She gave the glass a bright smile, then walked away gracefully with her waist twisted.
