Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1245 The Faithful Dog
Sun Shengguo asked in puzzlement, "Why are you asking this?"

I explained: "If it's not in your Huaxin, then you can't control it. If it's in your Huaxin, you can't control it. How hard can it be to make him make mistakes?"

Sun Shengguo sighed and said: "You don't understand this. If you play the tricks of the officialdom, you are really inferior to me. I really have more intrigue than court dramas! First of all, you don't know which ones are your own. People, who can become your own people! Again, even if you are your own people, you may not believe it. If you can be with you today, you can be with others tomorrow! Also, those who praise him are not fools , now that a successor has been appointed, there is no doubt about it. This is a predetermined thing and cannot be changed! Even if he makes a big mistake, it must not be his fault! The fault can only be me, so, how much One thing is worse than one thing less, I still want to honorably retire to the second line, at least I can get a good reputation!"

I frowned and said, "Don't you have any ideas?"

Sun Shengguo said with a faint smile: "Is it possible? Who would want to come down from such a high position? But you have to accept the reality! Nowadays, both enterprises and public institutions pay attention to youth, and I can't keep up with my brain and knowledge Can’t keep up! The people trained by them have stayed abroad, have skills, ideas, and are of excellent moral character, and they graduated from prestigious schools! It’s you, do you use me, or use such a person? Central enterprises, What do you want, long-term stability!"

I curled my lips and said, "Why do you always say that you are old? You are all old? Over 50 years old, you are in the prime of life, and you are in the best condition! Those who come up young need experience or qualifications." Seniority, what’s the use? Empty talk is harmful to the country! At that time, besides pointing fingers, what else will they do? I know them too well. They hold a little ink, their eyes are high above the top, and they are supercilious. In fact, they are nothing! Such a big A company, handed over to such a person, is waiting to go bankrupt!"

Sun Shengguo said with a smile: "It's not like you to pull the wrong frame? Isn't it done step by step at the grassroots level! It's not going to the sky in one step! This is their long-term plan!"

I cut it and said: "If you do well, I don't believe they will replace you! You are just worrying!"

Sun Shengguo seemed to have seen the dawn, but he still said stubbornly: "It's not that I'm worrying blindly, this is all predetermined, I just want to make a smooth transition! Speaking of this, will your shares be sold or not? Do me a favor and give the group an explanation!"

I said disdainfully: "Didn't you say everything? You are just a transitional person, so what are you worrying about?"

Sun Shengguo asked very puzzled: "If you are not sincere against me, why are you? You are blind to money, and if you don't make money, you are a bastard's master? Why don't you want to make money this time? No Just for the sake of breath, right? That’s not like you! I remember that at that time, you fought with Liu Ziran a lot, and you were beaten to the point of bleeding. tied together!"

It's okay not to mention this, but when I mention this, I hate it, and when I think of Liu Ziran's death, there is no body left, and my heart hurts. Isn't it all because of him?He dared to mention Liu Ziran now.

Sun Shengguo looked at me with some unfriendly eyes, and hurriedly asked: "Don't you still blame me for harming Liu Ziran, right? He was investigated because of his inability to raise funds before, and he had nothing to do with me at that time!"

I pretended to be calm and said: "It was all about the year of the monkey, who remembers it? Besides, our relationship is so good! Don't talk about him, tell me what are your plans after you retire? "

Sun Shengguo looked at me, as if he couldn't see any changes on my face, and then said calmly, "What are your plans? The group allocated me a flat in Hainan. I plan to move to Hainan after I retire. , I still like the sunshine all year round, no air pollution, no cold winter!"

I snorted and said, "I'm not asking you this, I'm asking, after you retire, you don't plan to do anything anymore? According to you, you should retire in a few years, right? Then how old are you? ? It’s not difficult to find any company to be a consultant, or go to that agency to be an official office, right?”

Sun Shengguo shook his head and said, "After retiring this time, I want to do everything, at least I won't enter any enterprise or institution! I plan to build a farm or something, raise chickens, raise pigs, grow some flowers , Plant some grass, don’t worry about it!”

I smiled and said: "The idea is very good! It's just unrealistic, at least not in Hainan! You might as well make a plan, raise some fish, raise some shrimps, and you have to eat the sea if you rely on the sea!"

But Sun Shengguo objected: "I don't like seafood, it's too fishy, ​​but I still like meat!"

I cut it and said: "Eat less meat, be careful of three highs!"

Sun Shengguo laughed and said, "It's still the healthiest when I was in prison!"

Then, we were silent for a while, knowing that old things should not be brought up again.

In this way, we drank until midnight, two of us drank three bottles of wine, and nothing happened, and we were indescribably sober.

I still wanted to help Sun Shengguo back to the hotel. Looking at him, he looked the same as if he hadn’t had a drink before, so I couldn’t help but praise him: “You really don’t have the capacity for alcohol? You’re so good? There’s no reaction at all for a catty and a half of liquor. !"

When the cold wind blew, Sun Shengguo wrapped his coat tightly and said: "No way! In the past at BJ, 52° Laobaigan sat for a whole night, when did he drink until dawn, and when did he end! He was never drunk! My old man It should be said that the old man of our family, the title of BJ City is not drunk with a thousand cups, but he dare not boast in front of me! One year during the Chinese New Year, the whole family drank together. At that time, my mother was still there What! At the end of the drink, who do you think didn't pour it?"

I thought for a while and said, "It's not you anyway!"

Sun Shengguo laughed loudly and said: "I really made you guess right! It's not that I can't drink, but they all know that I can drink, so they pour me down! The old man can drink, but his physical strength is not good enough. Your second brother can also drink, but He has a quick temper, no one is going to drink him, so he drank too much! As for the little boy, she is the smartest, and she said that she is a girl, so we have a drink, and she drinks half a glass! Seeing that we are almost drunk, she starts to pick up Jiang Jun , whoever refuses to accept, she will drink with whoever, and drink until your second brother dies, and start attacking the old man, and finally it is me, how can I obey her? I will fight her to the end, but I still lose to her in the end! "

I thought for a while and said, "You deliberately lost to her, right? She just keeps playing tricks, and with her drinking capacity, even ten of them are no match for you!"

Sun Shengguo laughed heartily and said: "Sometimes, I feel that you are really our family, and it is unreasonable for you not to be my brother-in-law! At the beginning, the old man really looked down on you, but I said, this kid You are a character with an unlimited future! But at that time, I didn’t care about your future, and I didn’t think you could achieve much. Even if you were a little promising, that’s all! You can’t even catch up with your father! But I can’t tell What's the matter, I just like your unscrupulous personality..." Then he stared at me and said seriously: "You also have eyes that can see through people's hearts!"

I smiled lightly and said, "How can I be as good as you say?"

Sun Shengguo sighed: "You have! You can't hide anything from you! Even if you don't know it for a while, you will realize it sooner or later. I have met countless opponents in my life, and I have to admit that you are the most difficult one!"

I didn't understand and said: "Why do you have to treat me as your opponent? We are a family!"

Sun Shengguo just said lightly: "That's because you don't listen to me, and I won't follow your opinion! We can't get together! Back then, if you listened to me one step at a time, we would be together. You are on the road, with your intelligence and my experience, we can go very high, very far!"

I shook my head and said, "Maybe I have already fallen before I left, and I will never recover!"

Sun Shengguo was angry for a moment, but quickly said calmly: "Yeah, you didn't listen to me, and you walked better, more steadily, and further, but my road became narrower and narrower! Maybe you're right, who knows?"

When we finally arrived at the hotel, the cold wind woke us up completely, as if we had traveled to the past, woke up again, and returned to reality.

When I walked into the room, I boiled water and made her a cup of tea. I wanted to continue chatting with him for a while, but he said in a dazed way: "I won't drink any more. I can't sleep because I drink tea at night. I'll wash up and go to sleep." , you go to bed early, Li Min will be here tomorrow!"

I said with an oh: "Then good night!"

After I took a shower, when I passed the living room, I clearly heard his voice on the phone, but the volume was not loud, and I didn't bother to eavesdrop. Don't even think about it, I already know that he is telling Li Min what to say tomorrow.

In fact, what Li Min said tomorrow is really not important. No matter how good the rhetoric is, I can still see the flaws. Didn’t Sun Shengguo say it himself? I have a pair of eyes that can see people’s hearts.

Early the next morning, I heard the door knock, and then I heard Li Min and Sun Shengguo say hello.

I washed my face and walked out of the room. The two of them were sitting at the dining table, eating breakfast.

Seeing me coming out, Li Min stood up and said, "Mr. Chen, are you up? I'm so sorry yesterday. The car broke down on the expressway! It takes more than three hours to go back and forth!"

I hummed, and Sun Shengguo beckoned me to sit down and asked, "What do you eat? Western food or Chinese food?"

I picked up a deep-fried dough stick and said, "Foreign devils eat something, let alone in the morning, and they don't usually eat it! Is the hotel's service so good now? And fried dough sticks?"

Sun Shengguo smiled and said, "Is that possible? It was brought by Li Min!"

While eating fried dough sticks, I praised: "President Li really knows the hobbies of leaders!"

Li Min smiled awkwardly and said, "I like to eat too!"

I asked with a loud voice: "After eating, I will talk to you again, and said, you have really learned the art of serving others! You boss, I just drank wine yesterday, and I must want to drink now." Congee, you make such a greasy thing, can he eat it?"

Li Min said in a panic: "I know you guys drank wine last night! But I really thought about buying porridge, I was really careless!"

Sun Shengguo gave Li Min an angry look and said, "How do you know we drank last night?"

Only then did Li Min understand the meaning of what I just said, and hurriedly explained: "I smelled it when I came in, it smells so strong!"

I laughed and said, "I have the potential to be a good subordinate!"

Sun Shengguo said with some displeasure: "Why don't you dissatisfy him? You can just say it directly. Why bother to call him a dog?"

Li Min asked as if he didn't understand: "Mr. Chen, didn't you call me a dog!"

Sun Shengguo sighed and said, "How did you become the vice president with such an IQ?"

Li Min giggled and said, "Loyal enough!"

I hurriedly said: "Look, there is another characteristic of a good subordinate!"

Li Min finally understood, and said angrily: "Mr. Chen, you are not authentic, why are you cursing people around the corner?"

I smiled and said, "I'm praising you! Why is it a curse? You think too much!"

Li Min snorted and said, "I seem to be nice to you all the time! Your trading company, if it weren't for me, wouldn't be able to enter the Huaxin system at all. I agreed with you to come in and let you supply the additives! Without me, there would be no company you have now!"

I said disdainfully: "Without me, you wouldn't be able to enter China State Construction Engineering Corporation's supply chain! These are all complementary. There is no free lunch in the world. Do you want me to continue? You don't know what you have gained?"

Li Min glanced at Sun Shengguo nervously, and argued, "What have I got? You have to be clear about this!"

I cut my throat and said, "Why are you nervous? I mean, without me, you might have such a good performance, enter the China Construction System, and come into the sight of your management, and you won't be able to get your boss Sun's attention." Appreciation isn't it?"

Li Min breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you!"

Sun Shengguo said impatiently: "Okay, I'm not interested in listening to you talking about old times here! If you have any questions, just ask now!"

I sighed and said, "I just want to know, didn't you get the consent of your superiors for the acquisition of my company by you? Did you just make the decision privately? Didn't you say hello in advance?"

Li Min was stunned for a moment, and then immediately replied: "I don't need to report such a small matter to my superiors. It is my own decision. Is there any problem?"

I snorted coldly and said: "The problem is serious! If this is the case, I will talk to you! If you demolish my temple now, I will demolish your platform! The project of China State Construction Engineering Corporation Limited, you will There is no need to supply any more. Mr. Zhang asked me if I would like to continue to cooperate with you? Will I sign the contract next year? I haven’t thought about how to answer him. I don’t have to think about it now, just refuse it. Already!"
