Chapter 13 The Brief Cold War
Chapter 13 The Brief Cold War
The black sedan drove almost silently on the morning road.
Inside the car, the atmosphere was dull and tense. Even the driver, who has always been cautious in his words and deeds, couldn't help but sneak a glance at the person in the passenger seat at the red light.
Lin Zhen knew what he was thinking, he had never seen anyone who dared to challenge Li Zhenbai's authority like himself.
Lin Zhen didn't want to do this either, but he had to.
Li Zhenbai sat in the back seat silently, his face condensed, and he didn't say a word on the road.
Either way, work still needs to be done.
Lin Zhen moved on the co-pilot, turned sideways to face the back seat, held the schedule and said, "Mr. Li, let me report today's itinerary to you, is that okay?"
Li Zhenbai didn't answer, and didn't even look at him.
His dissatisfaction with Lin Zhen's actions just now was obvious.
Lin Zhen bit his lips, pretending to be ignorant and said: "The first meeting of the Yunzhi Automobile acquisition project team is scheduled for ten o'clock this morning. Before ten o'clock, you need to meet with Mr. Wu of Yuansheng Battery. I have communicated with the general secretary, and they are very willing to cooperate... In the afternoon, you will be required to attend the meeting of the R&D department, and there will be no other work arrangements after that." He paused, "The preparations for your personal itinerary have been made in the evening Well, the restaurant has been furnished according to your requirements."
After the itinerary was finished, the car was still extremely quiet, and Li Zhenbai remained silent.
Lin Zhen clenched a fist with one hand and pressed it tightly to his side.
Dingling, the phone rang from the back seat, and Li Zhenbai's deep voice came over: "Hello."
At that moment, Lin Zhen turned to face forward, and suddenly felt very tired all over, so tired that he couldn't help leaning on the back of the co-pilot.
......
After the busy morning, Wu Yaoming, the boss of Yuansheng Battery, came. He is about 40 years old, and his appearance is considered passable among bosses, but he is far behind Li Zhenbai. After all, young and handsome CEOs like him are rare.
Yuansheng Battery is a leading company in the city's battery industry. Li Zhenbai intends to develop electric vehicles and has talked with Wu Yaoming several times. The acquisition of Yunzhi is also related to this idea.
Wu Yaoming naturally attaches great importance to cooperating with a large group like ENERGY, and he runs everything in person. When Yuan Mei was still working as the assistant to the president, she knew this person very well, but it was the first time Lin Zhen met him.
As soon as Wu Yaoming entered the outer office, he warmly greeted Qin You, and when he saw Lin Zhen who was waiting, he immediately strode over, held Lin Zhen's hand with both hands, and his eyes lit up: "Oh, I I just heard that Yuan Mei was promoted to be the Director of Publicity, so you are going to take over as Director Yuan's special assistant, you are really a talent!"
He turned his head and gestured to Qin You who was standing not far away: "Your President Li has a good eye. Put two beauties in the office. I'm tired of this work. Looking up and looking at both eyes can relieve fatigue. It's pleasing to the eye!"
Lin Zhen withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu is too much, Mr. Li is waiting for you inside, please follow me."
Wu Yaoming looked slick, and he was very reliable when talking about work. When Lin Zhen went in to deliver the materials, he heard him sincerely and earnestly persuading Li Zhenbai to accept his proposal.
Li Zhenbai obviously didn't agree with him, he just leaned on the back of the chair and looked at him coldly with his arms crossed.
Wu Yaoming went to the doctor in a hurry, grabbed Lin Zhen's arm, and asked him to comment: "Hey, Xiaolin, you said, now whether it is lithium battery or graphene battery technology is very mature, you Mr. Li insists on tossing about the new one. Sodium-ion batteries, isn't that unnecessary!"
Lin Zhen smiled neither humble nor overbearing: "Mr. Wu, you want me to say that as an employee who relies on energy for a living, I will definitely be toward our Mr. Li."
Wu Yaoming was a little disappointed, Lin Zhen said again: "However, from my personal point of view...."
"What?" Wu Yaoming's eyes lit up.
"I definitely hope that there will be electric vehicles that can resist low temperature and have better fast charging performance. If the stability of sodium-ion batteries is good, I personally still look forward to it. Yuansheng is the leader of our city's battery factory. If If I can break through this technical barrier, then I have to thank Mr. Wu on behalf of our ordinary consumers!"
Wu Yaoming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a smile: "I found out, all of your ENERGY employees are top-notch, and no one can be offended!"
Lin Zhen smiled and glanced at Li Zhenbai who had a flat expression, said hello and went out.
More than ten minutes later, Li Zhenbai and Wu Yaoming came out of the office together. Qin You had already gone to the conference room to prepare for the next meeting, and Lin Zhen planned to send someone out for her.
Seeing him approaching, Wu Yaoming stopped, pointed at Lin Zhen with his chin, and smiled ambiguously at Li Zhenbai: "President Li is still single, let me tell you, it's actually nothing to do with an office romance, the most soothing and refreshing Wake up!"
His voice was very loud, and no one shy away from it. After he finished speaking, he winked at the two of them thinking he was humorous, and laughed.
Until Li Zhenbai said with an ugly face: "Lin is really my sister-in-law."
Wu Yaoming's laughter stopped abruptly, and his face was extremely embarrassing: "Xiao...I was abroad when Mr. Li got married, I don't know..." He ran out like burning his butt, "Hey, I have something to do, I'm going back first, hey, Assistant Lin, don't send it, don't send it, I know this place well, you go quickly."
Even the honorific title came out, and it could be seen that he was really embarrassed.
After Wu Yaoming left, the office fell silent.
There was only room for the two of them, and it was impossible not to talk anymore. Lin Zhenbai really wanted to say something to break the silence, but Li Zhenbai had already said: "This person's words are beyond the limit, you don't have to take it to heart."
Lin Zhen couldn't help but let out a deep breath. He forced himself to suppress the fluctuations in his mood, nodded and said: "Yes."
From morning to now, it was almost ten o'clock, and Li Zhenbai finally spoke the first sentence to him.
On this day, the project acquisition meeting of Yunzhi Automobile lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone had a working meal together in the middle.
After such a long meeting, it is inevitable to make people sleepy, but Lin Zhen kept his concentration and concentration throughout the whole process. Of course, this is not only because he is responsible for taking the minutes of the meeting.
He is waiting for his opportunity.
Finally, when the meeting was about to end, Li Zhenbai suddenly looked at Liu Ying, director of the sales department: "It's your turn, how about the sales department's cooperation plan for the project?"
Liu Ying was stunned for a moment, he must be very afraid of Li Zhenbai, when the other party looked over, the hair coiled around the Mediterranean Sea on the top of his head trembled and fell off, and he became embarrassed for no reason.
He hesitated: "I...I...no, no...."
Li Zhenbai's face darkened: "Don't tell me you didn't do it, I had someone notify everyone of the meeting time and arrangement three days ago."
Liu Ying kept wiping away his sweat: "I thought...."
"What do you think?" Clap, the folder in Li Zhenbai's hand was thrown on the table.
Liu Ying was so frightened that he was about to kneel down. At this moment, a voice suddenly said: "Director Liu, the USB flash drive you installed is here with me. I borrowed it before the meeting. Forget about it." .”
The conference room suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked towards the end of the conference table.
Lin Zhen stood up generously, inserted the USB flash drive into the conference room computer, opened the PPT, and smiled at Liu Ying: "Director Liu, let's start."
Liu Ying stared blankly at the PPT on the projection, and found that the clauses were clear and the data was detailed. He still knew about the department, so he calmed down a bit, and started talking according to the PPT. Shun, on the basis of the content of PPT, a lot of extensions have been made.
Lin Zhen quietly glanced at Li Zhenbai who was far away at the other end of the long conference table, but the other party's expression didn't show anything.
After the meeting, Lin Zhen followed Li Zhenbai back to the president's office.
Li Zhenbai unbuttoned his suit, strode into the president's office, and said coldly without looking back, "Lin Zhen, come in!"
