Chapter 167 Secretary Xu and Vice President Sheng know each other?
A trail of white smoke, gradually darkening from light to dark, streaked across the clear blue sky, and a tiny plane was flying through the clouds in the endless sky.
The flight from Haishi to Berlin does not require a transfer and is a journey of more than ten hours, arriving in Berlin at night.
ST Group arranged special reception staff to pick them up at the airport and take them to the most luxurious star-rated hotel in Berlin to rest before working the next day.
In addition to Jiang Shibai, Xu Xian and Wang Bai, there were five accompanying personnel from various departments of the group.
The purpose of coming to Berlin is not only to discuss cooperation with ST Group and devote ourselves to the further research and development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular equipment, but also to study and visit.
ST Group was established in the last century. Its headquarters was founded in Beijing, China and moved to Berlin, Germany 20 years ago. Its strength in Europe cannot be underestimated. As a medical device group, its international status is comparable to that of Jiang Group.
There are some differences between domestic and foreign technologies, and the two groups have cooperated deeply to achieve a win-win situation.
After arriving in Berlin at midnight, they adjusted to the jet lag in the hotel. After breakfast the next day, the receptionist took them to the headquarters of ST Group.
The tires of the business car rolled over the white floor, and the car stopped precisely in front of the gate of ST headquarters. There were more than a dozen people standing at the door, led by a woman who looked to be in her forties.
She was wearing a black women's suit, standing firm in the cold weather. Time had not left too many traces on her face. Her eyes were sharp and she looked smart and capable.
ST Group was founded by Chairman Sheng and later taken over by his only daughter Sheng Mingzhu.
More than 20 years ago, Sheng Mingzhu ended her two-year marriage and moved the group's headquarters overseas.
Wang Bai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, got out of the car first and pressed the switch for the back door. Seeing this, Xu Xian wanted to press the switch next to her herself, but a long arm reached out and did it for her silently.
She subconsciously turned her head to look at him, only to see him withdraw his hand as if nothing had happened, adjust his expression, stretch his long legs out of the car, stand still, and slowly button up the buttons of the suit jacket under his coat.
Men are born with elegance and dignity, and even simple movements can make people unable to take their eyes off them.
Seeing this, Xu Xian immediately got out of the car, walked around it and followed closely behind.
As an accompanying secretary, both good eyesight and emotional intelligence are essential, but as a special assistant, Wang Bai is too good at looking and having too much emotional intelligence, which limits her development and performance.
Sheng Mingzhu saw Jiang Shibai, who was leading the group, and hurried forward to greet him. A proper smile played on the corner of her lips. "Hello, President Jiang, welcome you and all the elites to ST."
"Mr. Sheng, you are too polite. I am sorry to bother you." Jiang Shibai smiled gently with his thin lips, looking gentle and polite.
The two of them smiled and spoke modestly, and those who didn't know them would think they had known each other for a long time.
In fact, this was the first time the two met face to face. When Sheng Mingzhu was the chairman of ST in China, Jiang Shibai was only in his teens, and there was no opportunity for them to meet.
Sheng Mingzhu got married very late. According to their ages, she could be Jiang Shibai's mother.
The two of them have held video conferences online before, but face-to-face contact gives people a different feeling.
"That's not true. Mr. Jiang is young and promising. He's taking Jiang's company to new heights. Our cooperation is a win-win situation." Sheng Mingzhu said politely, "Your father and I are old acquaintances! I attended your full moon banquet back then."
Back then, ST and Jiang's were two comparable medical device groups in the country, and they are still about the same today.
However, the Jiang family's rise in recent years cannot be underestimated. The people in power of this generation appear gentle on the surface, but are actually cruel and ruthless.
The Jiang Group is visibly developing rapidly.
Maybe in a few years ST's development will not be as good as Jiang's. After all, she can't rely on her son. He wants to return to China and has no intention of taking over her business.
If he wasn't tied down by a huge fortune, he wouldn't have had the patience to serve as the vice president of the group.
"It's really fate." Jiang Shibai kept smiling, his mouth was warm but there was a hint of alienation in his eyes.
As a businessman, Sheng Mingzhu was just like him, with an impeccable smile. "It's cold outside, Mr. Jiang, come to my office and we can have a good chat."
As soon as she finished speaking, she caught sight of Xu Xian behind Jiang Shibai.
The bright and beautiful face was slightly reddened by the cold wind, and the brown scarf covered her delicate chin, making it difficult to see her true appearance.
The woman was undoubtedly beautiful, tall, with long legs, a superior figure, and a graceful posture. Just standing next to her was a feast for the eyes.
Xu Xian met her thoughtful, inquiring gaze, confused.
Their eyes met, Sheng Mingzhu nodded at her and smiled with pursed lips.
Out of politeness, Xu Xian immediately smiled appropriately and elegantly, which made it impossible to find any fault with him.
Jiang Shibai stood opposite her and immediately noticed her inquiring gaze. He calmly moved his body to block her sight and said in a slightly cold voice, "Okay."
Seeing this, Sheng Mingzhu realized that the gaze was disrespectful, so she forced a perfect smile. Although she looked normal on the surface, she felt that the woman accompanying Jiang Shibai looked a little familiar.
She seemed to have seen her somewhere.
The group arrived at the chairman's office on the top floor in a grand manner. Not all of them went into the office. Jiang Shibai only brought Wang Bai and Xu Xian, and Sheng Mingzhu also brought her assistant and secretary.
They sat down at the office table with tea in front of them.
Europeans are accustomed to drinking ice water in winter, but Sheng Mingzhu has a Chinese taste and can provide more tea choices.
The two sides had a very pleasant conversation. Apart from small talk, they basically finalized the direction of future cooperation.
After finishing their chat, Sheng Mingzhu planned to take Jiang Shibai and his group to visit the factory under the company. Before they got up, a knock on the door interrupted them.
There were three regular knocks on the door, and then it was pushed open unexpectedly.
A tall man in a white suit walked in, looking down at documents, and didn't notice that there was someone sitting at the table by the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Mom, I'll put the quarterly report on your desk. I won't have lunch with you and the Jiang's people. I have things to do."
After he finished speaking, he was a beat slow to react and raised his head, his peach blossom eyes meeting the eyes of everyone at the table.
Sheng Anyang's pupils shrank slightly, and he cursed in his heart. Didn't the assistant just say that all the Jiang's people went to the factory?
Why are there outsiders in the office?
Then, his eyes met a familiar face and he flinched again.
Sheng Mingzhu frowned slightly and scolded him, "Anyang, I'm meeting a guest. How could you be so rude as to just walk in?"
After that, she smiled apologetically at Jiang Shibai, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, this is my son Sheng Anyang, who is also the vice president of ST."
Jiang Shibai's expression was indifferent, and his tone was flat. "It's okay, Vice President Sheng, I've heard a little bit about it."
As the only heir of Sheng Mingzhu, Sheng Anyang naturally investigated his information.
He grew up in Germany, went to college in China, and went to the United States to study after graduation. He completed his credits and graduated ahead of schedule. He just returned to Berlin this year and was appointed as the vice president of ST.
Seeing him standing there in silence, Sheng Mingzhu's eyes flashed with displeasure, and her tone became more serious, "Anyang!"
This voice did not bring him back to his senses. Jiang Shibai narrowed his eyes and followed his gaze, realizing that he was looking at Xu Xian.
And Xu Xian was also staring at him with a dull expression.
"Secretary Xu knows Vice President Sheng?" Jiang Shibai's tone was ambiguous.
