The little secretary was not in a relationship now. Her personal time was basically dedicated to the two-dimensional characters, so she was very easy to coax. She could be appeased with a pat on the head.
"Director Chen, don't forget that you have an interview tomorrow morning. Take a look at the interview outline when you have time."
Before Chen Hansheng left, Nie Xiaoyu dutifully reminded him.
"I know, I know."
Chen Hansheng waved his hand and said. With the strong introduction of the Nutshell second generation phone, many interviews, speeches, meetings, and other invitations were basically non-stop.
However, Director Chen's "status" had increased, so ordinary TV stations could no longer invite him. Of course, it was another story for friends like Senior Sister Ye.
The interview tomorrow was from a CCTV program team. The relationship behind this kind of unit was complicated. Even a "Jiangling Pizza Hut" like Chen Hansheng would not casually refuse.
He drove out of the factory and soon arrived at Tianjing Mountain. He had promised Empress Dowager Liang that he would come at night.
The neighborhood was still as lively as ever, especially as summer approached. After dinner, more and more neighbors came down to take a walk and enjoy the cool air. After Chen Hansheng drove into the neighborhood, he had to drive slowly with the double flashing lights on because some children liked to follow the car.
After going upstairs, the TV, sofa, and dining table in the living room had not changed, but the atmosphere was much quieter.
In the past, there was little Ah Ning, Dong 'er, and the noisy Teacher Hu. Now, there was only Empress Dowager Liang and a nanny from Harbor City.
Liang Meijuan went to visit a "daughter-in-law" the next day. Although Chen Hansheng arranged a special car, Chen Hansheng was still afraid that his mother would be tired, so he specially found a nanny from Harbor City.
Why did he find a nanny from Harbor City? Chen Hansheng thought that there was a place where the language was more similar and could occasionally accompany Empress Dowager Liang to relieve her boredom.
Although Chen Hansheng was a womanizer, he was really filial.
"Hello, Director Chen."
The nanny, Auntie Ye, saw Chen Hansheng coming over and greeted him in dialect.
"Yes."
Chen Hansheng was originally smiling, but after seeing Auntie Ye, he responded with a sullen face.
Auntie Ye was in her early forties. She found that Chen Hansheng's reaction was a little dull. She wiped her palms on her apron twice.
Chen Hansheng's identity was not kept a secret from her. It was said that this young man's assets were one of the richest in Harbor City. His parents were also officials in Harbor City, and he had many relatives and friends. In short, he was very powerful.
Auntie Ye was not familiar with Chen Hansheng yet, so she was nervous and fearful.
Liang Meijuan, who was in the bedroom, heard the commotion. She would not be polite to her own son. She wrinkled her nose and sniffed around Chen Hansheng.
"It's broken."
Chen Hansheng's heart skipped a beat. He slept at Shang Yeonyeon's house yesterday, and today he went back to Jianye with Shang Yeonyeon. It was inevitable that he would be contaminated by Shang Yeonyeon's perfume.
Shen Youchu never used perfume, and Xiao Rongyu did not use these cosmetics when she was pregnant. Shen Youchu would occasionally use a little, but it would not be so strong. Liang Meijuan could already imagine Chen Hansheng hugging a coquettish woman last night.
"What did I say before? Don't make any trouble!"
Empress Dowager Liang raised her fist and hammered Chen Hansheng's shoulder heavily. "Look at the stench on your clothes. Chen Hansheng, do you have nothing better to do? I haven't hit you for a few days, and you're acting like this again?"
Chen Hansheng had no way of explaining. If he said that Shang Yeonyeon's parents were still home and that he only had a "vegetarian sleep" last night, he would probably get hit a few more times.
So he simply grabbed his mother's shoulder and casually said, "I was thinking how could I let you be idle, so I sent you over to stretch your muscles."
"Chen Hansheng, how can your skin be so thick!"
Facing her stubborn son, Liang Meijuan didn't seem to have much of a choice.
When they were eating, Chen Hansheng was still not very enthusiastic towards Auntie Ye. Liang Meijuan noticed this and specially praised the nanny's cooking.
After eating, Chen Hansheng accompanied Empress Dowager Liang for a walk downstairs. Liang Meijuan walked while talking about the current situation of her two daughters-in-law. Because Chen Hansheng wasn't there to disturb them, their emotions were quite stable right now.
Shen Youchu's pregnancy time was also found out. It was around the beginning of January. Xiao Rongyu's pregnancy was on Christmas Eve last year. Calculating like this, the two babies were born around the same time.
"Do you know there's another gender?"
Chen Hansheng asked.
Originally, obstetricians and gynecologists weren't allowed to reveal the baby's gender, mainly because they were worried that some parents would "prefer boys over girls" or "prefer girls over boys". Although this kind of gender discrimination had decreased a lot now, doctors still wouldn't reveal it directly.
They might hint tactfully. If it was a girl, the ultrasound doctor would say, "The baby must be very beautiful in a dress"; if it was a boy, the ultrasound doctor would say, "He will be very naughty when he grows up".
A family like Chen Hansheng's would definitely not prefer boys over girls. Professor Gao of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of the Provincial First People's Hospital, who came to check Xiao Rongyu, asked Chen Hansheng, "Director Chen, do you want a daughter or a son in the future?"
"Of course a daughter."
Chen Hansheng said without hesitation at that time.
Professor Gao listened and smiled without saying anything. Until she left, she whispered to Chen Hansheng, "Director Chen is lucky. He always gets what he wants."
This hint was already very obvious, but before Professor Gao confirmed it, everyone knew that it was Little Yu 'er.
Because there were too many people who had dreams. For some reason, it seemed that if someone in the family was pregnant, those relatives would always dream of the baby.
Xiao Hongwei, Lv Yuqing, Chen Zhaojun, and Liang Meijuan all had similar dreams. It was the scene of everyone holding Little Yu 'er in their arms after she was born.
From a scientific point of view, this was probably "what you think in the day, you dream at night". But the strange thing was that the baby's gender in the dream was the real gender, and there was rarely a mistake.
After confirming Little Yu 'er's identity, Chen Hansheng also wanted to know whether the other baby was little Ying Jun or little Chu.
"I originally wanted to keep a little mystery, so I didn't rush to ask the doctor."
Liang Meijuan said with a smile, "But today, my mother-in-law told me that she dreamed of a little girl who was as beautiful as her mother, but also a little naive."
Although Empress Dowager Liang said "naive", in fact, she couldn't hide her fondness between her eyebrows.
What was there to be afraid of? Her father was Chen Hansheng, who dared to bully her?
So Liang Meijuan was very happy in her heart. This was because in her grandmother's heart, this was a pair of twin sisters from 2006.
"When I heard the news this morning, I was so excited that I couldn't hold back my tears."
Empress Dowager Liang said this and couldn't help scolding Chen Hansheng, "But when I called you, you were fooling around with another woman. My lungs almost exploded from anger."
"Calm down, calm down."
Chen Hansheng said with a grin. His mind had already fast-forwarded to three years later. His left hand was holding Little Yu 'er and his right hand was holding a little naive bun. His two daughters, one sweet and one cute, were calling him father in a childish voice.
"Don't be so happy."
Liang Meijuan looked at her son and splashed cold water on his face as she said, "First think of a way to deal with Little Yu 'er's hostility towards Youchu. I'm worried that Little Yu' er will take Little Yu 'er to America in order to avoid this complicated relationship."
"I don't have a way right now."
Chen Hansheng said like a hoodlum, "We can only wait and see."
"Wait and see …"
Liang Meijuan ridiculed her son, "What's the use of having you?"
Chen Hansheng shrugged his shoulders and didn't argue with his mother.
After taking a walk, when Chen Hansheng was about to leave, Liang Meijuan suddenly asked, "Are you not satisfied with Xiao Ye?"
"Ah?"
Chen Hansheng froze for a moment, "No."
"I see that your attitude towards her is rather cold."
Liang Meijuan said, "Actually, Xiao Ye is still okay. She cooks, cleans, and even helps to make soup. Otherwise, I would be exhausted to death. So, you should smile more to others. Xiao Ye is originally a bit restrained. If you pull a long face, you will probably scare her."
"This, I know."
Chen Hansheng laughed. Empress Dowager Liang had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She couldn't stand to see people being bullied. She had a sense of justice in her bones.
"Mom, you don't understand. Aunt Ye just came to work and didn't go through too much inspection before."
Chen Hansheng explained, "So, I am a bit fiercer to her and you are a bit gentler to her. In this way, Aunt Ye will be afraid of me and won't dare to have any bad thoughts. But she will unconsciously get close to you, which is more beneficial for you to command her to do things."
"This is the way of balance in management."
Chen Hansheng said with his hands on his waist, "You should also read more books. Don't think that you can stop studying after retirement. If you can't do well, I will enroll you in a senior college. If your grades are too bad, the teachers will call their children …"
"Pa!"
After a clear and crisp sound, Chen Hansheng's nonsense came to an abrupt end. After a while, with a bitter face, he rubbed the back of his head and drove away.
"…"
The next day, Chen Hansheng accepted an interview from CCTV Finance Channel in his office.
In fact, Chen Hansheng was not unfamiliar with this channel. Now, as long as the domestic mobile phone industry was mentioned, Nutshell Electronics was an unavoidable research object. Not to mention, the news of Rocket 101's bankruptcy was actually exposed in the finance channel's "Entrepreneur" program.
But today, it was another program, "Dialogue". The host was a young man about 30 years old. He was handsome and had a very magnetic voice.
After the two shook hands and exchanged greetings, the entourage was about to turn on the camera when the host suddenly waved his hand, "Wait a minute, I want to chat with Chairman Chen about some daily life."
This was also relatively common. It was inevitable that they would be unfamiliar with each other for the first time. Chatting about daily life could improve their relationship and create a good atmosphere for the formal interview.
Chen Hansheng was also a "little interview expert", so he knew that this step was very common.
"Chairman Chen."
The host spoke first and spoke in beautiful Mandarin, "I don't know if you know me before, but I have interviewed many leaders in the international business, economic, academic and political circles, including Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, Situ Mude, the chairman of Royal Dutch Shell Oil Company, Kohler, the president of the International Monetary Fund, Nobel laureate Fogel … and I have become very good friends with all of them."
"What do you mean?"
Chen Hansheng was a little puzzled. He thought that the host was quite arrogant. They had agreed to chat about daily life, but he was bragging.
However, the host was a guest from the capital after all. Chen Hansheng didn't understand the host's intention, so he replied with a smile on the surface, "I hope we can also become good friends in the future."
"Of course."
The host nodded confidently, and then talked about some famous anecdotes during the interview.
There was a sentence that left a deep impression on Chen Hansheng. He didn't know what topic they were talking about, but he suddenly said, "Just like a very good friend of mine, the former president of the United States, Clinton, said …"
Chen Hansheng's expression changed. He stared at the host for a long time. The host thought that he had shocked Chen Hansheng, and he was a little proud.
He was originally sitting on a different sofa from Chen Hansheng, but now he deliberately moved closer to him and said in a low voice, "Chairman Chen, I also have some good friends in Samsung in South Korea. Occasionally when we have dinner, I heard them say that they regret competing with Nutshell …"
"Oh …"
Chen Hansheng finally understood that this guy was a lobbyist. He was probably using the interview as an excuse to help Samsung convey its attitude.
Ever since the mobile phone explosion, Samsung's stock had plummeted, and the sales of its products in China had also dropped significantly. The market that they had withdrawn from was taken over by Nokia, Motorola, Nutshell, Waveguide, Haier, and other domestic and overseas mobile phone companies.
Nutshell had just launched the second generation mobile phone, so it occupied the most market. If the "result theory" was used to calculate, Nutshell Electronics was the one behind all these.
However, Nutshell had all kinds of protection in China, so Samsung couldn't do anything to this rogue company. Besides, they were worried that Chen Hansheng would play some dirty tricks if they continued to compete with him.
"I see … Brother, what do you think?"
Chen Hansheng didn't answer his question. Instead, he asked with a smile.
"I think both sides will lose if we fight, and both sides will benefit if we make peace."
The host was waiting to hear his theory, so he immediately said, "Samsung is a world-famous company, and Nutshell is also the top electronic product manufacturer in China. There should be a lot of room for cooperation. As the saying goes, no discord, no friendship. You two should sit down and make friends."
In fact, Chen Hansheng had never thought of fighting with Samsung. At the beginning of the year, he had made a plan to scare Samsung first so that they would take the initiative to make peace. In this way, it would be easier for him to take the initiative in the future negotiations.
Now that Samsung had such intentions and had even chosen the right "mouthpiece", Chen Hansheng also gave an ambiguous response, "We can make peace, but you have to compensate for Nutshell's loss. Otherwise, let's continue fighting!"
"Sure, I will help to persuade them."
The host had achieved his goal. As for the specific negotiation method, he didn't care.
After that, it was time for the official interview. There was an outline, so it wasn't difficult.
After the interview, Chen Hansheng invited the host to have a sumptuous lunch. After the entertainment, the secretary who went to the banquet with him frowned and said, "Director Chen, this person is too good at bragging. Every time he opens his mouth, he talks about which country's president. Is he really so powerful?"
"He's just a fool."
Chen Hansheng chuckled. "He has no ability at all, but he keeps jumping between all kinds of capitals. Sooner or later, he will fall."
Nie Xiaoyu pouted. "But you still have a good chat with him."
"It's different."
Chen Hansheng gave an example. "There are many bosses in the Entrepreneurs Association of Sudong Province that I don't like, but it doesn't affect us from drinking and bragging."
Not long after the program was broadcasted, Samsung sent an invitation to Nutshell Electronics' chairman, Chen Hansheng, to go to Samsung's headquarters to discuss cooperation.
"Going to South Korea?"
Chen Hansheng's first reaction was not about the company's business, but about his stubborn junior sister.
"If only she knew that I'm already a father."
Chen Hansheng thought silently. With Luo Xuan's personality, what would she do?
… …
(Sorry, I'm a little late. I still need to refine it later. Old Liu knows that everyone is a little sad after losing the competition, so he asked junior sister Luo to come out and comfort them.)
