Chapter 12 Chapter Twelve

Xiao Tan regained his composure and concentrated his energy. He still said that the project he liked to talk about made him feel more relaxed. He continued what he said just now: "I don't think there is much chance for Vizier. They are focusing on the Pufa project. Girl, you are too tender. You have never had a thorough relationship with customers, especially high-level managers. They are only superficially polite. If you have time, I will introduce to you the situation of several key people in Pufa. Mainly talk about my communication with each of them.” Outside the North Fourth Ring Road, about a few stops away from the Pufa Group building, is a restaurant street, with restaurants of various flavors lined up side by side, including Cantonese seafood, Hubei stew, Beijing-style roast duck, Chongqing hot pot, etc. There is also a Korean barbecue and a Japanese restaurant.In fact, not only this street has various flavors, but also every restaurant has various flavors. The brand is just a signboard. The restaurant must take care of the tastes of all the diners. Therefore, in Hubei restaurant You can order shredded pork with Beijing sauce, and it is not surprising that you can order braised pork with preserved vegetables in Chongqing restaurants.Both top restaurants and street stalls can happily say "no" to diners. People go to top restaurants just for face, and street stalls just to fill their stomachs. In fact, these two needs can be satisfied, which is exactly the mid-range It is difficult to run a restaurant, because it has to take care of the various needs of diners, and it is absolutely impossible to say "no".

Hong Jun specially chose this street to arrange dinner with several people from the Pufa Information Center. The agreement was just to have dinner together, not a dinner party.Although Yao Gong is the director of the information center, the information center belongs to the technical department in Pufa and is under the management of the chief engineer. It is a second-level department and not directly under the management of the general manager. , it is more important to pay more attention to benefits than form, and to entertain middle-level people, it is natural to find mid-level restaurants.Hong Jun understands that these middle-level cadres are difficult to be, and he has long realized that the work of these middle-level cadres is the most difficult, because their needs are the most and the most complicated.

Hong Jun chose the Chaozhou restaurant on this street, and asked Phoebe to book a private room for six people. Pufa would come for five people, including Hong Jun and Phoebe, a total of seven people, but Hong Jun did not ask for a larger private room, but He asked the waiter to add a chair and a set of tableware, and he wanted to sit as close to Mr. Yao as possible. Not long after Hong Jun and Phoebe sat down in the private room, Yao Gong arrived on time with his staff.Hong Jun thought to himself, he guessed right, although Yao Gong was cynical, he must be very strict with himself, he didn't want others to find fault with him, especially he didn't want to get a bad reputation for not being punctual.All five people entered the private room, and everyone seemed to sit down casually. They said it was casual, but in fact, the rules were all in it.Yao Gong didn't pretend to be polite, and sat in the main seat carelessly. Hong Jun sat as close to Yao Gong as possible, Yao Gong's deputy director sat on the other side of Yao Gong, and then Phoebe. Talking about things, there are three other people sitting in the other half circle between Phoebe and Hong Jun, and they are here for dinner.

The waiter held the heavy menu and scanned the crowd, trying to figure out who would be in charge of ordering.Phoebe reached out to take the menu and passed it to Mr. Yao, asking Mr. Yao to order. Mr. Yao waved his hands and shook his head, and said, "I don't order, I don't order, anyone of you can order, order anything What do I eat." Phoebe held up an encyclopedia-like menu full of pictures and texts in one hand. Seeing that she couldn't lift it anymore, she looked at Hong Jun with her eyes. Hong Jun smiled and said, "Phoebe, just order. Just you, a lady, we Give you the power."

Phoebe held the opened menu in both hands and began to search up and down. Soon, she raised her head and asked the waiter who was standing beside her: "I want a marinated goose paw first for cold dishes. By the way, how do you cook goose here?" Is it roasted or steamed? Is one roasted goose enough for the few of us?" Hong Jun immediately waved his hands and said, "Don't count me in eating geese. I won't eat them. You six can do whatever you want." Phoebe opened her eyes wide and asked in surprise, "Come to eat Chaozhou cuisine, don't you eat goose?" Others also looked at Hong Jun strangely.

Hong Jun calmly explained: "I had a boil on the back of my neck. It was fine, but it suddenly became red and swollen in the past two days, which made me dare not take it lightly. Goose meat is hair, I dare not eat it." Whether it’s roast goose or steamed goose, I’m afraid I’ll die like Xu Da if I eat it, so don’t be like Zhu Yuanzhang and force me to eat steamed goose.” Phoebe and the others were a little puzzled, and Phoebe didn't care what Hong Jun's second sentence meant. Anyway, knowing that Hong Jun didn't want to eat dishes with the word "goose", she lowered her head and continued to look at the menu.

While arranging the napkins, Yao Gong casually said to Hong Jun who was next to him: "It seems that you know this allusion? Why? Do you have any research on Ming history?" Hong Jun smiled and said: "What's 'research'? I'm just a little interested. Last time I went to Nanjing, I went to Mochou Lake to see the Shengqi Building, and went outside the Taiping Gate to see Xu Da's tomb. Ming Xiaoling has been there before." At this time, Phoebe was asking the waiter if it was enough to order a roast goose for six people. Yao Gong immediately waved his hand at Phoebe and said, "You are really good, Xiao Liu, you Mr. Hong can't eat goose. We don't have to eat goose." Eat, don’t order goose, it’s not good to order something on such a thick menu.”

Hong Jun smiled and thanked Yao Gong for his kindness. Phoebe blushed and quickly finished ordering, then stood up and poured tea for everyone. Yao Gong lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and asked Hong Jun, "Are you particularly interested in Ming history? Or are you interested in the history of all generations?" Hong Jun turned the tray on the table, moved an ashtray over, put it in Yao Gong's hand, and said: "I am a miscellaneous. I have liked history since I was a child. At that time, I liked watching various novels the most. "Eastern Zhou Dynasty" ah, ah, and so on, and then I slowly started to read the official history. Later, I read the Twenty-Four Histories all the way, and when I got older, I started to like Ming history."

Hearing this, Yao Gong stopped probing as before, but directly said: "To tell you the truth, I also like Ming history. I don't know why you like Ming history, but I know why I do, because it is In the Ming Dynasty, China started to lag behind Europe, and then fell further and further away. The Ming Dynasty is like a scar in our Chinese history. I just like to uncover this scar to see what is going on. See Sometimes my heart hurts, the more I look at it, the more it hurts, the more it hurts, the more I look at it." Hong Jun once again felt that his judgment was right. Yao Gong is a man of temperament, and he lives in his own spiritual world. Hong Jun began to like Yao Gong from the bottom of his heart.At this time, the cold dishes came, and Phoebe passed all the dishes on the tray in front of Mr. Yao and his deputy director, and asked them to move their chopsticks first.Yao Gong absent-mindedly picked up a marinated egg and put it on his small plate, instead of eating it right away, he looked at Hong Jun.

Hong Jun knew that Yao Gong was waiting to hear what he had to say, so he didn't move his chopsticks, but immediately said: "Hehe, my starting point is different from yours. I like to read Ming history. At first, it was because the Ming Dynasty was the only one in Chinese history. Sandwiched between the two minority regimes, the Ming Dynasty was founded by overthrowing the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and finally gave the country to the Manchu Qing Dynasty. At that time, I felt that there were too many lessons learned, but in recent years When I look at Ming history, the more I look at it, the more proud I become, and the more I look at it, the more relieved I am."

Yao Gong seemed puzzled, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Exhaust? I don't think so, but I think the entire history of the Ming Dynasty is a history of eunuchs and wimps. Wang Zhen, Wang Zhi, Liu Jin, and Wei Zhongxian are all about eunuchs messing with government. , as far as Zheng He’s seven voyages to the West was concerned, it turned out that Zheng He was also an eunuch.” Hong Jun smiled, and while watching the waiter start to put hot dishes on the table, he said: "Mr. Yao, let me tell you a story. It is true. A few years ago, I had a client who was a Japanese electric company. Once I had a drink with the translator of their president. The Japanese have a characteristic that they like to drink and get drunk when they drink. This translator is also a little drunk. He told me that he learned it at Waseda University. Chinese, he told me that most Japanese people look down on those who learn Chinese, and those who learn English and French are respected, but there are also some people who especially appreciate them who learn Chinese, saying that they are learning the language of an "enemy country" with humiliation. It will come in handy and make great contributions in the future. This guy asked me, he didn’t understand why China included the Yuan Dynasty in its own history. Wasn’t China destroyed by the Mongols? He also said that in Japan, There are many people who study the history of the Yuan Dynasty, more than China and Mongolia. Why? Because Japan is the only country that the Mongols wanted to fight but failed to defeat. Aren’t Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan known as the conquerors of the world? Japan People are very proud, because only Japan has not been conquered by them." Speaking of this, Hong Jun stopped and took a sip of tea. He suddenly realized that there was no sound in the private room. He went on to say: "Listening to what he said, I told him, I don't study the Yuan Dynasty, I study the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, Japan just escaped because of a typhoon, and the Ming Dynasty It really defeated the Yuan Dynasty. Finally, I added another sentence, I like to study the Ming Dynasty, and also because the Ming Dynasty is the only one in Chinese history that did not deceive itself and promote Sino-Japanese friendship, but resolutely attacked Japan and achieved a comprehensive victory Dynasty." The deputy director next to Yao Gong hurriedly asked: "What did the interpreter say after hearing it?" Hong Jun smiled: "He was so drunk later that he couldn't remember anything the next day." The deputy director said regretfully: "Oh, what a pity, it would be nice to let him remember." Yao Gong thoughtfully, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, and said after a while: "It's true, whether it's a sea battle, a land battle, or in Zhejiang, Fujian, and North Korea, we won in the end. Jiajing and The two emperors in Wanli were very stupid, but they were quite resolute in fighting against the Japanese." At this time, a person sitting next to Phoebe opposite Hong Jun said: "Come on, Mr. Hong, try this. Stir-fried scallops with vegetable gall, it's pretty good." tray. Hong Jun glanced at the tray, the fried scallops with vegetable gall was just placed in front of that person, and in front of Hong Jun was the most expensive baked lobster on the table, when the person turned the fried scallops with vegetable gall to Hong Jun, he just Just turned the baked lobster in front of him.Hong Jun smiled secretly. It seemed that he was anxious to eat lobster, so he "let" the lobster under his nose under the pretense of letting Hong Jun eat scallops.Sure enough, as soon as the rotating tray stopped, the guy couldn't wait to insert his chopsticks into the lobster. Hong Jun glanced at Yao Gong, and found that Yao Gong was staring at that subordinate, his eyes were filled with disgust and hatred.Hong Jun understood that Yao Gong also saw through that man's tricks at a glance. It seems that Yao Gong is very "straight", but not "roundabout", and quite smart. Moreover, Yao Gong must also be angry at that guy for interrupting his discussion with Hong Jun. . The dishes were ready, Hong Jun and Yao Gong only drank tea, Yao Gong's deputy and three subordinates drank beer, Phoebe also asked for beer, but refused to drink after about two cups, and the three subordinates began to begrudge Wanting to persuade Phoebe to continue drinking, Yao Gong reprimanded her to be honest, and the three of them toasted each other, enjoying themselves.Hong Jun felt that Yao Gong had regarded Hong Jun and Phoebe as his own, even taking care of them in every detail. Next, Yao Gong kept talking about the three major cases of the Ming Palace, and Hong Jun listened carefully, adding some of his own comments from time to time. There were not many interruptions, let alone the long-winded speeches just now, but they were all in place.Yao Gong talked very happily, basically didn't move his chopsticks, but smoked a lot, he seemed to have been searching for a long time before he came across such a bosom friend as Hong Jun. The snacks and fruit plate have also been served, Yao Gong and Hong Jun are still chatting, the three of them are picking their teeth with toothpicks while striking up a conversation, Phoebe went out to pay the bill and came back, and saw the deputy director sitting next to her , then looked at Hong Jun, Hong Jun noticed it, and took a chance to say to Yao Gong: "How is it? Have you all eaten? How about we come here first today, and we have to go to work tomorrow." Yao Gong said: "Okay, not bad, not bad, I had a good time eating today, have you guys finished eating too? Then let's break up." Everyone stood up, walked out of the private room, and came to the steps outside the restaurant. Hong Jun didn't speak, he was waiting for Yao Gong to speak.Sure enough, Yao Gong said: "I think so, you go first, I rarely have a happy chat with Mr. Hong today, I want to find a place to chat with him again, don't worry about me." When Hong Jun guessed it, he knew that Yao Gong had more intentions. Moreover, letting everyone know that he and Hong Jun were going to stay alone without avoiding suspicion was also a typical work style of Yao. Can make irresponsible remarks. Hong Jun and Yao Gong stood on the steps, watching Phoebe call a taxi on the side of the road, and send the deputy director and three subordinates away first, Phoebe winked at Hong Jun before leaving, Hong Jun smiled at her He smiled, and looked at Yao Gong next to him. Yao Gong didn't pay attention at all. He had already found a disc-shaped neon light hanging not far away, with a green word "tea" on it, so he pulled Hong Jun's arm to the house. Go to the teahouse. It wasn't until he entered the teahouse and was led by the waiter to find a table to sit down that Gong Yao didn't let go of Hong Jun's arm.The waiter handed over a tea list made like the bamboo slips of the Warring States Period. Yao Gong didn't even look at it, so he waved his hands and said, "Just come to the pot of chrysanthemums." Then he smiled at Hong Jun and said, "I talk too much, my mouth is dry." The tongue is dry, they know, I have never said so many words." Hong Jun smiled, he knew that Yao Gong wanted to drag him to talk about the Ming Dynasty, but what Hong Jun was thinking about was the current general distribution project, he had to bring Yao Gong back to the present world.Hong Jun first asked the waiter to take a pack of cigarettes for Yao Gong, and when the waiter turned away, he said to Yao Gong: "Yao Gong, just now you mentioned Zheng He's voyages to the West. I don't see it that way." Yao Gong looked excited, eagerly waiting for this round of new topics to start, and urged: "Well, you say it." Hong Jun went on to say: "You just said that the Ming Dynasty was the turning point of China's prosperity and decline, and it was from the Ming Dynasty that it fell behind Europe. Zheng He's voyages to the West began in the reign of Yongle, then ended in the reign of Hongxi, and ended in the reign of Xuande. You must know that the first four emperors of the Ming Dynasty, not counting the missing Jianwen emperor, from Zhu Yuanzhang's Hongwu to Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, the four dynasties of grandparents and grandchildren were the period when the Ming Dynasty was strong and prosperous, and then Mingyingzong had a civil fort change, and even the emperor was captured by the Mongols. After that, there was no major turning point, even a decent one. ZTE has neither." Just when the waiter was bringing tea, Hong Jun stopped, Yao Gong frowned, and said: "Xuande was really strong before, and the Japanese pirates were killed at sea at that time, and the Japanese pirates couldn't go ashore at all. But I think The chaos after Yingzong was caused by the monopoly of the eunuchs, if Wang Zhen hadn't coaxed Yingzong to conquer himself, Yingzong would not have been captured, and the chaos in the future would not have been so great." Hong Jun poured tea for Yao Gong first, then poured it for himself, and refused to let the tea, so he took a sip first and said: "The eunuch's monopoly is the root cause of the chaos in the government, but the political struggle in the court will not be immediate. It affects the national power of the entire country. Zheng He’s voyages to the West seven times before and after, emptied the treasury and exhausted the country’s manpower and material resources, but the country did not get any substantial benefits. Why did Ming Chengzu go to the West? The main purpose is to publicize the Ming Dynasty's Tianwei, go out and go around seven times, preaching how powerful and majestic Lao Tzu is, trying to satisfy the vanity and causing extreme arrogance. His After Zheng He’s last voyage to the West, the grandson Emperor Xuande was dumbfounded when he calculated the total account, he didn’t expect to spend so much money on the next trip to the West, let alone that he was almost penniless.” Yao Gong interjected: "We also did a lot of trade in the Western Seas, so it can't be said that we didn't gain anything economically." Hong Jun smiled and said: "The things that Zheng He's fleet did can't be regarded as trade. What he gave to others was called reward, and what he received from others was called tribute. Some private fleets following Zheng He's buttocks were actually They did some trade, but the Ming Dynasty didn't pay much attention to it at all, and didn't even establish a decent customs system, so although some people did make a fortune, the country just went out and didn't come in. It's no wonder that Emperor Xuande was furious later Decided not to go to the West again, and went to extremes, and finally burned Zheng He's ship, even the nautical charts. I guess, if Zheng He hadn't died in India, Emperor Xuande would have exhumed Zheng He. Corpse." Yao Gong didn't speak, but he was thinking about it while drinking tea. Hong Jun knew that the time had come, so he changed the subject and said, "Yao Gong, I have a feeling right now, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not." Yao Gong didn't raise his head, he was still thinking about what Hong Jun said just now, and said, "Say what you say." Hong Jun pondered for a while, and said, "Mr. Yao, I feel that the way Pu found out in this software project is a bit like Zheng He's voyages to the West?" Yao Gong raised his head all of a sudden, put down the tea bowl, and looked straight at Hong Jun for half a minute. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Oh, Hong Jun. Oh, yes, I will Let’s call you Hong Jun, don’t be an old ‘Boss’ ah ‘Boss’, and don’t be an old ‘You’ or a ‘You’. Since I started this project, I always felt that something was wrong, but I said no What is wrong with Qing, just now you were so abrupt, I understood it all at once." Hong Jun smiled, he went around such a big circle, and finally he could talk about the topic directly, he immediately went on to say: "Yao Gong, let me talk about my opinion first, you see and you feel the same different. Fafa wants to buy enterprise management software this time, but it is only for political calculations, not economic ones. Pufa has developed to the present, and it is also the leader in the industry. If you don’t spend tens of millions of RMB on a software project, you don’t buy the most expensive software. , seems to feel unreasonable. In fact, the software is purchased by Pufa for its own use, not for others to see. I chatted with some people in Pufa and found that what they are most concerned about is that there are Everyone has bought software, how much money others have spent, and when others plan to start software projects, but they seem to have never thought about it carefully. Should Pufa really be involved in software projects? What is Pufa buying software for? What kind of software is most suitable for distribution?" Having said that, Hong Jun stopped and looked at Yao Gong.Yao Gong raised his right hand, tapped Hong Jun with his finger, put it down, hesitated to speak, raised it again, tapped Hong Jun, put it down again, and said: "You, you are so right, everything is too right. Say , you go on." Hong Jun struck while the iron was hot and said: "Pufa's software project looks vigorous from the outside, but deserted on the inside. Software companies, consulting companies, and hardware companies come to Dengpufa's door like a revolving door. Now that we have started a big project, Pufa often goes out to listen to lectures and visits, which is very lively. However, until now, Pufa has not fully demonstrated why it wants to participate in this project, why it is necessary to buy software now, nor has it clearly determined What goals and benefits will be achieved after using the software. It seems that Pufa has not yet determined who is the person in charge of this project, right? There is no full-time project team, right? Director Sun is only responsible for specific coordination, not the person in charge , but there is no chief person in charge, and everyone is only involved and not responsible. This project will definitely not work well. To be honest, Pufa is far from ready to buy software and use it. Just like Zheng He’s voyages to the West, it’s a great success, without any real benefits, and the software and hardware you buy will end up as a pile of garbage. Yao Gong, do you want to end up with such a result for the project that is widely distributed?” Yao Gong looked solemn, his chest was heaving violently, he was trying to calm himself down, after a while he said: "Hong Jun, I have met so many businessmen, until now, you are the only one I have seen standing From our point of view, it was considered for us. Many of us did not consider what you said at all. Some of us may have considered it, but they also felt that it had nothing to do with us. It was not at our own expense anyway, so we did not bring it up. , I’m ashamed. Hong Jun, you said this to me today. To put it bluntly, you think highly of me. I will tell everyone what we talked about today. Although my words don’t work, I still want to Say, I want to say, don’t rush to buy software, you haven’t figured out your own affairs yet.” Hong Jun quickly picked up the conversation and said: "That's right, it's still too early to decide which software to buy, and there are still many important tasks that have not been done. In my opinion, a formal bidding should be held. First, the bidding documents must be confirmed. In this way, it is possible to clarify why the software is purchased, what are the requirements for the software, and what benefits will be generated by using the software. Secondly, there must be a leading group for bidding, from writing bids to evaluating bids, thus forming future projects To ensure the success of the project, it is very important to have a strong and dedicated project team.” The index finger and middle finger of Yao Gong's right hand were gesticulating with the cigarette, and Hong Jun noticed that Yao Gong hadn't bothered to light the cigarette in his hand since he entered the teahouse until now.Mr. Yao's voice was a little hoarse, but he said firmly: "It makes sense, let's do this. I will talk to our chief engineer tomorrow. Next Monday is the regular meeting of middle-level and above cadres, and I will hold it again. gun." Hong Jun smiled, suddenly, he began to feel a little hungry, because he hardly touched his chopsticks during the Chaozhou cuisine just now. The next day, Hong Jun locked himself in his small office, and he had to make a report and send it to Jason as requested.Hong Jun was very reluctant. If Jason really wanted to know about these projects, he should call and talk to Hong Jun directly. Moreover, it would be best if Hong Jun arranged for him to visit customers together.However, Hong Jun has discovered that Jason is as unwilling to meet clients as he is unwilling to meet Kok in the Asia-Pacific region.Jason would most like to meet with reporters. As long as editors and reporters from various media want to interview him, Jason will immediately agree. Moreover, he often takes the initiative to contact reporters directly to ask them to interview him. In the past period of time, Jason has only been to Beijing once, and he didn't go to Visil's Beijing office at all. He just chatted with a reporter from a newspaper in the hotel where he stayed all morning.Later, Hong Jun actually saw the interview report sent by that reporter, which made Hong Jun feel annoyed and funny. The whole report was about Lin Jiesen himself, but when he mentioned his title, he mentioned Wei Seale Company.Hong Jun thought that this kind of publicity was nothing more than Jason's preparation for his next job-hopping, and it was of no help to Visier's business.What makes Hong Jun even more angry is that since Jason is most concerned about his "photographing rate", he doesn't really care about Vizier's market share and project winning rate, but he pretends to read the written report regularly. Hong Jun was working on the report when someone knocked on the door, Hong Jun just said "Come in" without looking up, the door was pushed open, it was Phoebe.Hong Jun raised his head and looked at Phoebe, only to see Phoebe closing the door tightly pretending to be mysterious, biting her lips and holding back a smile, and tiptoeing to Hong Jun's chair.Hong Jun was surprised and didn't know why, when he heard Phoebe said with a smile: "Old Hong, lower your head." Hong Juncai would not be at the mercy of Phoebe, but waved his hands, pointed to the chair across the table, motioned Phoebe to go back to where she should have sat down, and said, "What's wrong with you? I have something to say. thing." Phoebe made fun of it, but didn't care, and muttered, "It's boring. I just want to see if you really have a boil on the back of your neck." Hong Jun smiled, and finally understood what Phoebe was trying to do. He straightened the tie around his neck and said, "Well, I have no comment." Phoebe also smiled and said: "If you like to talk but don't talk, I guess you will keep it like this. By the way, did you know so much about the Ming Dynasty before, or did you just try to make up for it these days?" Hong Jun still smiled and said the same words: "No comment." Phoebe pursed her lips and said, "Cut, I don't want to talk about it." Then, she immediately said firmly, "No, you have to tell me, otherwise what should I do when I encounter this situation in the future?" Hong Jun had no choice but to say lightly: "Actually, it's nothing. Didn't I say it? I'm a miscellaneous. Being a miscellaneous is good for sales. I'm interested in everything, I have my own opinions on everything, and I can talk about it." One or two, that's fine." After Hong Jun finished speaking, he looked at Phoebe and wondered why she didn't go out yet.Phoebe suddenly remembered something and said, "Hey, I almost forgot what I'm here for." After finishing speaking, she put the list she had been holding on Hong Jun's desk. Hong Jun picked up the list and looked at it, and Phoebe explained on the opposite side: "I would like to invite Vice President Zhou of Pufa and those who do sales and marketing to sing karaoke at night. This is an application for expenses. If you approve it, I can ask Helen to advance the cash." .” Hong Jun smiled and said, "Hey, are you going to be corrupt again?" Then he asked, "How many of them are there?" Phoebe replied: "Four. Vice President Zhou, and the heads of the following three departments, a total of four people." Hong Jun pointed at the amount on the application form and said, "Well, there are five or six people who only plan to spend 3,000 yuan, so they can't go to any high-end places." Phoebe went on to say, "Yes, but Helen and her boss Laura both said that Jason was very strict about the cost, so I didn't dare to apply too much." Hong Jun said: "Oh, Vice President Zhou and the others are doing marketing themselves. They have seen too much of the world, and you are timid and too shabby. It's better not to invite others." He thought for a while, and then said: "How about this, you change the number of applications to six thousand, and I'll approve it for you. In this case, six people, each with an average of one thousand yuan, is not bad." Phoebe tilted her head, stunned for a moment and said, "You have boils on your head, right? The four of them and I make five people, six thousand yuan, one thousand each? How did you calculate it?" Hong Jun smiled and said, "Look at your mouth, it's not big or small. There are six people, and I'll go too." When Phoebe heard this, she opened her mouth, first surprised, then immediately laughed happily. On the north side of the East Third Ring Road, there are a lot of restaurants. There is a five-star hotel on the basement floor. It is a very lively nightclub. The disco on the right hand side of the door is deafening, and the corridor on the left hand side is full of private karaoke rooms.This nightclub, like this hotel, is a little old and outdated, but the influence of the famous town and capital of the past is still there.It was Hong Jun who proposed this place. When Phoebe told Vice President Zhou on the phone, Vice President Zhou immediately said, "Yes, yes, that place is good." Phoebe told Hong Jun about Vice President Zhou's reaction. Hong Jun smiled secretly, it seems that Vice President Zhou must have visited a long time ago, and the good memories are still there. When Phoebe went to pick up Vice President Zhou and his party, Hong Jun arrived alone first, and he asked the waiter to arrange a private room that could seat ten people.Soon, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Vice President Zhou stepped in first. He was very tall, he should be only a few years older than Hong Jun, and he looked in his early forties. Hong Jun and Vice President Zhou had seen each other before. Now it was not a formal occasion, so he shook hands casually with a smile and said hello, followed by Phoebe and three other men, all subordinates of Vice President Zhou. Hong Jun asked Vice President Zhou to sit down first, and Phoebe sat down next to Vice President Zhou naturally, and the other three came up to shake hands with Hong Jun, and then each found a place to settle down.Hong Jun was still standing, and ordered the waiter to serve fruit plates and various snacks. He just asked the waiter what the rules are for opening wine here. Vice President Zhou, who was chatting with Phoebe, immediately said: "Old Hong, don't open wine, there is no need Spend that money." Hong Jun shook his head and said, "How can I do that? Actually, it's not too dark here, so don't save me money." Vice President Zhou insisted: "Old Hong, I'm not being polite to you. We are all in this business. We have seen many of these things. No one is short of this drink. Today we just close the door and enjoy ourselves. You listen to me. .” Hong Jun had no choice but to give up, asked them for their opinions, ordered some beer and juice, and then said to the waiter: "Let's do this first, by the way, you go and call 'Mommy' over, we want four girls here. " Vice President Zhou and Phoebe who were talking raised their heads, and Vice President Zhou said, "Old Hong, there's no need, we just need to be lively." Hong Jun smiled, and said to Vice President Zhou: "Mr. Zhou, it seems that you can't learn from the 'Three Represents'. If you are accompanied by our Ms. Liu, you don't represent the interests of the broadest masses of us. Already." Vice President Zhou and his three subordinates all laughed loudly, only Phoebe blushed, pouted at Hong Jun, and glared at him. At this time, a young "Mummy" pushed the door open and came in. While greeting these people warmly with a smile on her face, she secretly glanced at these people, deducing their origins and preferences very skillfully.Hong Jun said to her: "Hey, find us four ladies. I have a general understanding of the standards of the ladies here, so I won't repeat myself. I will just mention one, don't wear pants, just wear skirts." Mommy smiled and agreed, and backed out.As soon as Hong Jun turned around, he regretted the last joke just now, because he just noticed that Phoebe was wearing a pair of western-style trousers as usual.Hong Jun froze there, not knowing whether to explain, let alone how to explain.At this time, Phoebe stood up, her face was redder than before, she walked up to Hong Jun, leaned close to his ear, and said four words through gritted teeth: "I despise you." The voice was not loud, but Deputy Zhou The total number of people heard clearly, and everyone laughed. Hong Jun also laughed, because he saw from Phoebe's eyes that she was not angry, so he asked Phoebe to sit next to Vice President Zhou, and finally sat down himself. The door was pushed open again, and Mommy led the four girls in. The four girls only stopped at the door for a moment. Seeing that the men inside did not choose or refuse, they went to the four men separately. sat down.Hong Jun knew that the three subordinates would not dare to pick and choose in front of Vice President Zhou, but he still asked them politely: "How is it? Are they all okay?" The three immediately replied: "Ok", "Not bad", "Yes, yes", and Hong Jun waved to Mommy who had been standing at the door, signaling her to go out. After Hong Jun settled everything, he just calmed down and wanted to look at the lady sitting next to him, but he didn't expect that she had already spoken first: "Sir, what's your name?" Without even thinking about it, Hong Jun blurted out: "Hong Jun." There was a sudden silence in the private room. Vice President Zhou and the others were stunned.

Phoebe said to the phone: "Hey, ah, it's okay, I'm playing with a client,..., it's okay, don't worry about it, I'll go back when I'm done playing...., Oh, don't worry, I'll take a taxi and go back That's it. It's all right, you guys go to sleep, I'm going to hang up." After hanging up the phone, Phoebe turned around and went back to the sofa to sit down, talking and laughing.Vice President Zhou immediately said to Hong Jun: "Old Hong, it's past twelve o'clock, I think we should come here." Hong Jun was happy to get this far, and wanted to go back early, so he glanced at Phoebe, and Phoebe picked up her handbag and went out to pay the bill. Hong Jun said to Vice President Zhou: "Oh, I didn't pay attention, time flies. How about it?" Mr. Zhou, it is good to have a chance to relax." Vice President Zhou said with a smile: "When others ask me to play, I really don't necessarily come. Ms. Liu said that you will be there at night, so I said I will definitely come. We are colleagues, and I think you are a good person from the beginning. ，爽快，不婆婆妈妈。来的路上我对他们说，玩儿的时候人家洪总一定不会扯上软件项目的事。怎么样？我没说错吧？”说完，就转过去看着那三个人，他们都笑着点头。 菲比推开门进来，把手包放到沙发上，但没坐下，而是手里拿着钱包，挨个走到每个小姐面前，轮流给四个小姐发小费。洪钧旁边的那个小姐从菲比手里接过钱，都不用点数就准确地感觉出究竟是几张百元钞票，把钞票攥成卷握在手心里，笑着说：“今天真逗，还从来没有过小姐给小姐发小费的呢。” 刚转身走向另一个小姐的菲比一听，立刻停住脚，转过脸没好气地说：“别瞎说啊！谁是小姐？！” 洪钧在旁边接上一句：“就是，她要是小姐，你们这几个就全没饭碗了。” 菲比想都没想就随口说：“就是。”可是刚转身走了一步，就定住了，她反应过来了，这时周副总等几个人都已经笑出声来。菲比慢慢地转回身，两只眼睛死死地盯住洪钧，大声说：“我加倍鄙视你。”说完，也憋不住扑哧一声笑了出来。 大家离开夜总会，上到酒店大堂，等在那里的周副总的司机看见他们过来了，就马上跑出去把一辆小面包开了过来。洪钧刚说让菲比送周副总回去，周副总笑着说：“不用不用，我都安排好了。今天晚上要喝酒，所以我们都没开车，司机把我们挨个儿送到家，你们不用管。”上车之前又对洪钧补了一句：“对了，刚才人家刘小姐家已经来电话了，这么晚了家里一定担心，你还是别管我们，把刘小姐送回家吧。” 等周副总他们坐的小面包开走了，洪钧对菲比说：“好啦，咱们也该撤了，打个车吧，我送你回去。” 菲比却说：“老洪，我刚才喝了点啤酒，他们又不停地抽烟，连那几个小姐都抽，呛得我够呛，我好像有些头晕，弄不好会吐在车上，要不，咱们往前走走，等我舒服一些再打车吧。” 洪钧愣了一下，只好说：“嗯，好吧。”便拔脚向酒店外面的三环路走，菲比忙快步跟了上去。
