Leaders are busy, after all, and appointments take time. However, Xing Baohua's attitude when speaking to Director Jiang was somewhat stiff, which seemed rather impolite.
Even if Xing Baohua said the most offensive things, Director Jiang couldn't do anything about it. Firstly, he felt guilty, and secondly, Xing Baohua was no longer the person he could easily manipulate a few months ago.
The companies that generate foreign exchange for the G family are all protected at various levels. He has no influence whatsoever.
Judging from Xing Baohua's words, he wasn't just talking to one or two leaders! It seems there's something important that needs urgent reporting.
The leader instructed Director Jiang to inform Xing Baohua that a meeting would be held tomorrow afternoon in the S Committee conference room.
The temporary key leaders will all be present.
After learning the time, Xing Baohua also began to make preparations.
He personally wrote a press release, had his secretary print it out, and then created some slides.
These slides will be projected onto a white screen using a projector, making them easier to explain.
It's a rather old-fashioned PowerPoint projector. The only problem is that changing slides is quite troublesome; you have to manually change them, which is far less convenient than using a computer.
Rehearse some steps with your secretary so that you don't mess up the slides.
After arranging these matters, Xing Baohua left work early, as she had an important occasion to attend that evening.
My mother-in-law is treating me to a meal, and it's my first time going, so I don't know what to bring. If I had told her earlier, I could have brought some things back from Hong Kong.
Go to the mall early to browse and see what you might want to buy.
Without any advice or guidance, Xing Baohua had never encountered a mother-in-law before, whether in her past life or this one.
In his past life, Xing Baohua was always single. He had many girlfriends, but none of them lasted long, and no woman wanted to spend her life with him. So he never met his mother-in-law!
If it's your father-in-law, it's easy to get away with it by buying him some good cigarettes and alcohol.
Can you fool your mother-in-law?
I've wandered around the First People's Department Store twice, but I still haven't found anything I want to buy.
I'd love to buy gold and silver jewelry, but the meaning is different! What kind of prospective son-in-law gives his mother-in-law gold and silver jewelry?
I'd like to buy Suzhou embroidery, Hangzhou silk, and silk scarves.
But Xing Baohua felt the gift was too inadequate.
After thinking it over and over, I'm having trouble making a decision.
Xing Baohua was so worried that he kept scratching his head.
I should have asked Suya what her mother usually likes.
Out of desperation, Xing Baohua wandered around some more, eventually arriving at the toiletries and cosmetics section. She asked the sales clerk, "Do you have any cosmetics for elderly people?"
The salesperson asked, "Cosmetics come in many varieties. What are their main uses?"
Xing Baohua thought to herself, "Cosmetics are divided into uses?"
He immediately said: "It's for face care."
The salesperson took out three items: one in a plastic bag, one in a plastic bottle, and finally one in a glass bottle.
Even without looking at the name, this is clearly not up to par.
Do you have any higher-end options? Preferably those that come in a gift box.
They said they had it, but it was very expensive!
He hates it when people tell him something is expensive; money is the least of his worries. He quickly asked the salesperson to bring it over so he could see how expensive it was.
The gift box was indeed high-end. The salesperson said to Xing Baohua, "This is the only box left. Let me tell you, it's imported! We can't get any more after it's sold out. You can only look at it, not touch it."
"Just tell me how much it costs."
"180"
Xing Baohua started taking out his money, but after searching around, he finally managed to pull out a few cents in change.
I forgot my money when I went out, and while looking for my briefcase, I saw the checks, but sighed and realized I couldn't use them.
Seeing Xing Baohua dawdling around, the saleswoman said impatiently, "If you don't have money, what are you trying to prove?"
"Speak politely, it's not like we're not going to buy. As a salesperson, you need to have a good attitude!" Xing Baohua took out his pager and sent a message to his secretary.
The sales clerk didn't stand up to Xing Baohua and put the cosmetics away again.
While waiting for her secretary, Xing Baohua went to the silk scarf shop and decided she should buy some.
He just didn't have any money right now, so he carefully wrote down everything he saw.
He went to the exit, had a smoke, and waited for his secretary.
When Xing Baohua arrived at the toiletries counter with her secretary, a young couple was also looking at the only set of cosmetics.
Xing Baohua quickly went up to the sales clerk and said, "I've brought the money, please write up the receipt quickly."
"Hey! What's wrong with you! Why are you grabbing it? Can't you see we're watching?" The youngest of the young couple shouted angrily when he saw Xing Baohua taking the cosmetics.
"I'm so sorry, I saw something I liked earlier. But I don't have enough money, so I have to go back and get some. I'm so sorry! I'll buy this one," Xing Baohua said apologetically with a smile.
After bringing the cosmetics over, I expected the sales clerk to quickly write up the receipt. The sales clerk, however, remained unmoved.
The young man reached out and snatched the cosmetics from Xing Baohua's hand again, saying, "You're buying them? Did you get my permission?"
Hearing such domineering words, Xing Baohua was amused; it had been a long time since anyone had challenged him.
He's not the same Xing Erliuzi he was a year ago. Now, everything is about reason, and reason is used to win people over.
"There's a first-come, first-served rule when buying things. I saw what I wanted first, so I only paid once. The sales clerk can vouch for that," Xing Baohua said politely.
"Who does she think she is! Let me be your witness and tell you, I've got my eye on this too. You can ask her if she'll sell it to you or me, and give me a receipt!"
The young man looked only slightly older than Xing Baohua. His tone of voice was undeniably domineering.
It's not hard to tell from the conversation that this kid has some business acumen.
The sales clerk listened to him and wrote out the receipt.
The only gift that Xing Baohua would take a liking to and present was one he would never give away.
