"Captain Bai. Did your subordinates provoke you recently? Some time ago, I passed by the security department and heard you throwing a tantrum in your office. Don't tell me there's a new security guard who's as arrogant as Xiao Zheng? "Tang Ming casually asked as he gulped down a glass of whiskey. His body swayed along with the music.
"Nothing." Bai Yujiao shook her head and curled her lips. "They're just a bunch of security guards who don't know the rules. Wouldn't dealing with them be as easy as chopping vegetables? "
In the past, Bai Yujiao often put on airs in front of Tang Ming, pretending to be aloof. It was mainly because she was the leader, and Tang Ming was the follower. He had to show some dignity. Right now, even though Tang Ming's position was not as high as hers, a supervisor, when it came to importance and authority, he was not someone Bai Yujiao, who could easily get off work with just a few words every day, could compare to. If he continued to put on airs, it would be a little too much.
Of course, it was also because they were familiar with each other that Bai Yujiao changed her attitude. Otherwise, not to mention Tang Ming, who was the number four or five in the entertainment department. She might not even give face to the second-in-command, Ma Choi Jun.
"What about you?" Xiao Zheng drank a cup of beer and sized up Tang Ming. "The funds of the entertainment department have been taken away by the overseas department. It hasn't been easy lately, has it? "
Tang Ming lit a cigarette and rubbed his brows. "The problems at work aren't hard to solve. After all, the foundation has already been laid. The initial layout was also set. As long as they didn't deviate from their strategy, there wouldn't be any major problems. As for money, it didn't matter if he waited. Anyway, I think it's best not to take too big of a step, lest you pull your balls. "
Bai Yujiao sneered and curled her lips, "Stop pretending. Last time, I saw you arguing with the head of product development. "
"Is that so?" Xiao Zheng frowned slightly.
"It's nothing," Tang Ming said with a wave of his hand. "Don't listen to Captain Bai exaggerating. It's just a little friction. "
"You work in the entertainment department. How did you come into contact with the product department?" Xiao Zheng asked.
Based on the current internal structure of Xin Ao, 70% of the product department's business was related to the overseas department. It was an important barrier to ensure the quality of Phantom in the domestic market. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that he would have too much interaction with the entertainment department. At least in the short term, there weren't many business collaborations.
"Phantom's overseas products have problems, and the headquarters' product department will inevitably suffer from rumors. I've been under a lot of pressure lately, but I don't dare to do anything to the overseas department. Therefore, they could only vent their anger on me, a former high-ranking member of the Ocean External Affairs Department, "Tang Ming explained with a smile. "It's also because the entertainment department is about to launch a new product, and I happened to be in charge of the communication this time. During this period, there was a conflict of ideas, so there was a small conflict."
Xiao Zheng nodded in understanding. He then smiled and said, "Looks like our entertainment department has harmed you."
"It's work. It's inevitable that there will be depression." Tang Ming was rather open-minded. "Actually, I've caught up with the One-inch Punch this time. If another person in charge went over to communicate with them, the other party would have no reason to get angry. Forget it, it's just a small matter. Let's not talk about it. Drink. "
The cost of this bar was not too high, but the three of them could hold their liquor well. He had actually downed nearly five thousand bottles of wine in one go. In the end, when he saw Tang Ming smoking one cigarette after another, Xiao Zheng was a little addicted to smoking. He slapped away the cigarette in Tang Ming's hand. "Stop smoking."
Tang Ming grinned and put away the cigarette. "We're men. It's fine to smoke once in a while. Why do you have to force yourself so much? "
At the mention of this, Bai Yujiao also noticed that Xiao Zheng had quit smoking for quite some time. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why did you suddenly decide to quit smoking? My grandfather smoked his whole life, and my grandmother forced him to quit time and time again. Every time, he persisted for about a year and a half, and then he started smoking again. He can't stop smoking no matter what. "
Xiao Zheng took a sip of wine and smiled. "It's fine as long as you have perseverance."
Perseverance?
Bai Yujiao glanced at Xiao Zheng from the corner of her eyes. He thought to himself, "Blue Heart isn't a controlling woman, and she usually listens to everything Xiao Zheng says. She didn't even try to change Xiao Zheng. After the two of them got together, she changed quite a bit. Therefore, it was definitely not Blue Heart who asked him to quit smoking.
Then … the answer was obvious!
The big boss was a controlling person, and she was a man of her word. It must be Lin Huayin who forced Xiao Zheng to quit smoking so harshly.
She shook her head and dispelled these thoughts. Bai Yujiao took the initiative to ask Tang Ming, who couldn't speak, "How long will it take for President Shen and the rest to return? Is it really that difficult for Phantom this time? A dignified Vice-CEO-level figure actually stayed abroad for two months. It doesn't make sense. "
Bai Yujiao was an outsider, so it didn't matter how she asked. Tang Ming had to avoid arousing suspicion. If he asked, he would be urging Xiao Zheng to recall Shen Han. It would easily interfere with Xiao Zheng's judgment. This was also the reason why office romances were forbidden.
Xiao Zheng stuffed a strawberry into his mouth and said slowly, "They definitely won't be back in the short term. Shen Han just flew to South Africa two days ago. She's currently handling some matters there. "
"Our Phantom was sold to Africa?" Bai Yujiao clicked her tongue.
Xiao Zheng smiled. "Don't look down on South Africa. Phantom's sales in many established European countries can't even catch up to South Africa. For this reason, the headquarters has also launched a special Phantom that is suitable for Africans to stimulate consumption. "
Tang Ming's eyes flickered with surprise when he heard that. "The crisis this time has even affected South Africa?"
Tang Ming was close to the core of power, and his information channels weren't something Bai Yujiao could compare to. Although he didn't get involved, he had a general understanding of the crisis the Phantom series was facing. In addition, he would occasionally talk to Shen Han, so he had some insider information.
Xiao Zheng nodded. "South Africa is currently the biggest market for Phantom. We've just seen some results, and now we're facing a disaster. We've lost at least one billion just from South Africa alone. "
Bai Yujiao rarely heard Xiao Zheng talk about work. Now, he mentioned one billion right off the bat. She was shocked.
"It seems like the other party has grasped the right timing. They've killed us in the cradle. "Tang Ming frowned slightly and pursed his lips.
"Their methods are indeed fierce. If we don't handle it carefully, we might not be able to break through this huge wave, "Xiao Zheng said solemnly.
Ding ding!
Xiao Zheng's phone on the table suddenly rang. Someone was calling.
Just as he was about to pick up his phone to answer it, the phone in front of Tang Ming also started ringing. It sounded like a life-threatening note.
The two of them picked up their phones at the same time. A few seconds later, their faces suddenly sank, and they fell into madness.
Bai Yujiao saw the sudden change in their aura, but neither of them spoke. She just listened to the voice on the other side of the phone.
"What's wrong?" Bai Yujiao asked tentatively.
Xiao Zheng waved his hand, signaling Bai Yujiao not to speak. A few seconds later, he rubbed his somewhat stiff face and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Shen Han was kidnapped in South Africa."
