Rebirth of a powerful marriage

Chapter 37: Just close your eyes and it will pass.

Xu Zitai calmly sorted out his emotions, and asked in a low voice: "So, you agreed to Zhuang...my grandfather signed this merger contract just to repay Xu Zitai's favor?"

"I don't deny it, I want to do something for Xu Zitai, but there must be a limit to repaying a favor." Lu Zhaoming rubbed his brows, showing a trace of fatigue, "After all, the company is not my property alone, I can't Take the future of the entire company as you like to meet your own needs.

"So when Mr. Zhuang took the initiative to propose a merger request to me, I carefully evaluated the plan and agreed to it after I thought it was feasible. However, there are still voices against me at the general meeting of shareholders. Since everyone is a good friend who started a business together, I can't finalize this plan so quickly."

Lu Zhaoming said, looking at Xu Zitai: "So, Xiao Ning, I hope you can understand my difficulties. Although I really want to help you, I am not omnipotent, and my burden is also heavy-the most important thing in a merger and acquisition contract. One of the treaties is to ensure that all employees under the "Apex Travel" will not be forced to lay off, which means that the number of employees I need to support has suddenly doubled, which is already considered a charity.

"What's more, as the legal representative of the company, I still need to be responsible to my shareholders. I have to prove with facts that after the merger, my company can still make normal profits, at least it will not drag the 'Migrants Alliance' into losses, so that they Only then will I support me without any worries, and this path of mergers and acquisitions can continue.”

Xu Zitai was silent, and he began to reflect on his previous rash words and deeds.

As the former CEO of "Peak Travel", he used to attend the shareholders' meeting of "Peak Travel" often. He watched the game between Mr. Zhuang and the treacherous shareholders. Although he did not personally participate in it, he could still smell To the invisible smell of gunpowder.

Mr. Zhuang is already a veteran businessman who has experienced many battles. He often feels in a dilemma when it comes to coordinating the company's decision-making and shareholders' interest disputes. What's more, Lu Zhaoming is still a self-made business upstart. He has no predecessors to pave the way for him. , and no elders taught him the way of doing business. He has been able to get to the present, completely relying on his own ability, step by step.

Not in his position, it is difficult to experience the hardships personally. Xu Zitai was only in charge of the company's operation and management before, and the means of negotiating with shareholders were just a few superficial observations from Mr. Zhuang, so before that, he had never put himself in the shoes of others. Consider the issue from Lu Zhaoming's standpoint.

Now it is rare for Lu Zhaoming to open his heart to tell him about his difficulties. After introspection, he is also a little moved, because of Lu Zhaoming's secret attitude of repaying gratitude, and also because of his patience with his unreasonable demands all the time.

But this kind of emotion cannot be put on the bright side, because the negotiation will continue. After all, they are in different positions and represent different interest groups.

He can understand Lu Zhaoming's difficulties, but he cannot ignore the interests of the people he represents just because he understands his difficulties.

After deliberating for a moment, Xu Zitai took a deep breath and said, "Okay, Zhaoming, if you think the technical teams of the two companies must be merged, then merge, and I will not hinder you again."

Lu Zhaoming suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, with an unconcealable surprise on his face.

Although Xu Zitai said before, "If that story can impress me, maybe I won't pester you to talk about the independence of the technical team anymore", but he didn't expect that the other party could really do what he said and gave up so simply .

What surprised him even more was that Xu Zitai actually called him "Zhaoming", not "President Lu", but "Zhaoming". If he remembered correctly, this was the first time the other party called him by his name for real. .

However, before Lu Zhaoming had time to express his joy, he heard the other party continue: "But I have a request, this is my final bottom line."

Lu Zhaoming frowned: "What request."

"I hope that before the two technical teams merge, you can find a way to get me into the technical team of 'Peak Tour' and become a technician there."

Lu Zhaoming felt unreasonable at first, and then he couldn't laugh or cry: "Xiao Ning, you are not a technician, what can you do when you join the technical team?"

Xu Zitai's expression was very firm: "Whether I am a technician or not, you don't need to worry about it. You just need to let me enter the technical team in the shortest possible time. I will find a way to solve the rest of the problems myself."

Lu Zhaoming sighed: "Xiao Ning, why are you still so stubborn..."

"It's not stubbornness." Xu Zitai said, "I don't obstruct you, it's because I look at the problem from your standpoint and consider your difficulties, so I don't embarrass you anymore. But it doesn't mean that I give up on myself original intention and principles.

"The brand of 'Peak Tour' cannot just decline like this, and the technical team of 'Peak Tour' can't just be abandoned like this. Since I can't rely on you, then I can only rely on myself. I am confident that I can create a miracle for you to see. , show it to your shareholders."

Lu Zhaoming narrowed his eyes: "What kind of miracle do you want to create?"

Xu Zitai shook his head and said, "I can't tell you now, I need some time to make a plan, and I will show it to you after I finish the plan."

"Okay," Lu Zhaoming had no choice but to compromise, "I will do what you wish."

He thought for a while, and then asked: "But why are you in such a hurry to join the technical team? Anyway, the two teams are going to be merged. Isn't it good to join after the merger?"

Xu Zitai glanced at him and said: "There is an old saying in China, 'A good bird chooses a tree to live in'. Those technicians are the elite among the elite. They are not canaries, but those with brains who can choose their own future. Man. They're still on Top of the Row because they still have feelings for the company, but what do you think they'll think when they learn they're going to be merged and work with a bunch of 'Sparrows'?

"At this point, those who are still willing to stay are fools. Anyone with a little ambition and a little goal will leave and find another job. And if they leave, 'Peak Travel' will really exist in name only. So I have to find a way to stabilize their hearts before they jump jobs, only if they are there, can we have the possibility of creating miracles."

Looking at Zhuang Ning who was talking eloquently in front of him, Lu Zhaoming listened distractedly and wondered, based on what he has learned so far about Zhuang Ning's spirit and patience, if he could take over and manage the dealer's property earlier, what would be the point of "Traveling at the Peak"? fell into such a situation.How much did Mr. Zhuang not understand his grandson back then, so he would rather watch the Zhuang family go downhill step by step than let Zhuang Ning intervene in the company's affairs?

After Xu Zitai finished speaking, he waited for a while. Seeing that Lu Zhaoming was still frowning and did not speak, he couldn't help but gently pushed him: "Yes or no, you can tell me something."

Lu Zhaoming came back to his senses and said, "Okay, I agree to your request."

He looked at the calendar and continued: "According to the merger plan, the time for the merger of the two technical groups is tentatively set in mid-August. How about this, after the family dinner is over tomorrow, I will take you to report to the technical group in the morning the day after tomorrow .”

"Are you taking me there?" Xu Zitai frowned, as if he was concerned.

Lu Zhaoming was stunned for a moment: "You are my boss...you are my partner, since you are going to be airborne to the technical team, of course I have to come forward in person."

Xu Zitai quickly waved his hand: "No, you misunderstood me..."

As he spoke, he paused suddenly, as if he realized something, pointed to Lu Zhaoming's body, then pointed to his ear, and said, "This matter is not urgent, I will discuss it with you later."

Seeing his gesture, Lu Zhaoming immediately understood that Xu Zitai might have something that he didn't want the listener to hear, so he nodded cooperatively.

"Then, it's getting late, you should rest first." Xu Zitai said, got up to leave, and shook his mobile phone at Lu Zhaoming before leaving.

Lu Zhaoming nodded in understanding and watched him leave.

A few minutes later, Lu Zhaoming received a text message from Xu Zitai: [About entering the technical team, I don't intend to parachute in as Zhuang Ning. 】

Lu Zhaoming frowned and asked: [What do you mean? 】

Xu Zitai: [I will forge an identity and join the technical team as a technician hired by Planet V with a high salary, so you don’t need to take me to report for duty that day, just ask the HR manager to take me there. 】

Lu Zhaoming: [What? Technicians hired by planet V with high salaries?Where did you get such an identity? 】

Xu Zitai: [You don't have to worry about this, I've asked Xue Chenglin to help me prepare, and then I'll disguise myself a little bit, it won't be a problem. 】

Lu Zhaoming: [... After a long time, it turns out that you have already planned it. 】

Xu Zitai: 【Listen to me first. Although I claim to be hired with a high salary as a technician, in fact I will not ask you for a salary. You only need to eat three meals a day.How about it? It's a good deal, right? 】

Lu Zhaoming: 【Seriously, Xiao Ning, stop making trouble.You're not a real technician, and when the time comes, you'll be out of order, and I'll have to help you deal with the aftermath. 】

Xu Zitai: [I said that you don't need to worry about this kind of problem. I will solve it myself. If you are a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, I won't help you. 】

Lu Zhaoming: [Wait, what did you just say?Emergency rescue? 】

Xu Zitai: [Uh huh, you don't need it?Forget it. 】

Lu Zhaoming: [Need, really need!But do you really say yes? 】

Xu Zitai: [Everyone said it was a conditional exchange.You get me into the technical group first, and then I will help you with something.Not much else to say, use your actual actions to show the sincerity of cooperation. 】

After finishing the hands-on conversation, Xu Zitai threw the phone aside, then threw himself on the bed, pressed his face down on the pillow, and let out a long breath.

His current mood is very complicated. On the one hand, he is looking forward to entering the technical team and taking the first step of the plan; but on the other hand, he is also asking himself, can he do that kind of thing with Lu Zhaoming?

From the moment he put forward this exchange condition, he already had the consciousness of accepting it—who made him reborn in such a small body as Zhuang Ning? Zhaoming would not be willing, even if the other party was willing, he would have to work hard enough.

But if he was willing to suffer, he really couldn't imagine what it would be like to be oppressed by others in Shenxia.

As long as he closed his eyes and simulated the scene, he would feel a sense of humiliation, which drove him crazy.However, he has nowhere to express his feelings, because in the eyes of everyone including Lu Zhaoming, this is just a very normal relationship between husband and wife.

In the end, he could only comfort himself. When he was on the battlefield before, he had never been afraid of life and death so many times. This time, he just suffered a little bit of flesh and blood. As for self-esteem... just close your eyes and it will pass.
