In Union Square, San Francisco, Tang Yi strode into the private Sanella restaurant and was led by the waiter to a luxurious private room.
Tang Yi was delighted when he entered the private dining room: 'Huh? My cousins are pretty punctual!'
There were two other people in the room, Tang Yu and Tang Wan'er, the second and fourth heirs in the Tang family. At the moment, they were sitting facing each other at the table, drinking coffee. On the other side, there was just one chair, obviously waiting for Tang Yi to come in.
'We came early, but you, my cousin Tang Yi, are not late!' Tang Wan'er laughed lightly.
Compared to Tang Wan'er's relaxed attitude, Tang Yu frowned slightly and said, 'As a member of the Tang family and the third-in-line successor, Tang Yi, you should have some sense of time. Punctuality is not necessarily the best, especially in front of people of different status. Now it's just Wan'er and I, but what about the other elders? This is a very rude and ill-mannered thing to do!'
Tang Yi, however, didn't bother to listen to Tang Yuzhuang's long speech at all, and simply walked in and sat down in the chair: 'I say cousin Tang Yuzhuang, we're all family here, so you should stop pretending in front of my cousin Wan'er, or you'll get struck by lightning.'
Tang Yujian's eyebrows were set, and he was about to scold him, when Tang Wan'er came out and said, 'We're all family, let's not hurt the harmony, we still have things to talk about!'
Tang Wan'er's soft voice was pleasant to hear in the first place, and coupled with her charming expression and her words, it was hard for anyone to continue an angry argument.
Tang Yu calmed down and just snorted, saying, 'Let's get down to business. According to the news, Zhou Ming invited Brown, the head of the logistics department at Suffolk, to dinner yesterday. Brown Zhou Ming some information about Suffolk Company, and also told Zhou Ming that the future president of Suffolk Company, Lie Bote, will go to the technology exhibition to personally inspect various technology companies.'
Tang Yi looked at Tang Yu meaningfully and said, 'I can't believe you're so well-informed. You're not spying for Zhou Ming, are you?'
'That's none of your business,' Tang Yu said coldly.
Tang Yi shrugged, 'It really has nothing to do with me. After all, it's the guy Zhou Ming is surrounded by who is betraying him! I just simply despise this kind of behaviour.'
'And you? Mr Tang Yi, I think it is your lack of breeding that deserves the most contempt, especially the way you scream all day long. Your broken car gives me goosebumps every time I hear it,' Tang Yu said back unceremoniously.
Tang Yi wanted to say something more, but at this time, Tang Wan'er very appropriately stepped forward to be the peacemaker, and neither Tang Yu nor Tang Yi said any more. Seeing this, Tang Wan'er had to say, 'But cousin Tang Yu, then I'm curious about the purpose of your deliberately asking me and cousin Tang Yi out today. Do you want us to help you deal with Zhou Ming?'
With Tang Wan'er's question, Tang Yu's coldness could not hold out anymore, but he didn't do anything about it either. He just sat there quietly and said, 'Tang Yi, you often go to various exhibitions. You will be more familiar with the you will be more familiar with the situation than I am. As for Wan Er, I remember that you have invested in several high-tech companies. Although two million is not a lot, it will allow them to try to compete a bit.'
As soon as the words had barely finished falling, Tang Yi ruthlessly retorted, 'You want us to do this and that, but what about you? Are you going to grab a stool and some melon seeds and watch the show?'
'I will of course do my part. I have a friend at Suffolk, and I think I can do something else through internal channels,' Tang Yu said somewhat irritated. 'And for this exhibition, I will also get more companies involved, but more than anything, I will have to rely on you guys to get it done.'
'Remember Remember, no matter who among the three of us ends up with the right of inheritance, the Tang family will remain the Tang family. But if they get it, then the Tang family will no longer know what surname to use. ,' Tang Yu said firmly, 'No matter what, we must stop this, whether it's Jieke's business or Tang Ran and Zhou Ming's careers, we must destroy it!'
Fortune Fortune IT Tech Show is a large-scale technology exhibition organised by Fortune Company. It is a technology exhibition that came into being with the rise of high-tech companies in Silicon Valley. Its purpose is to showcase the products and future concepts of various high-tech companies products and future concepts. The Forté Technology Exhibition is an irregular exhibition based on the state of technological development in Silicon Valley, and it has a great influence in Silicon Valley and even throughout the United States.
Information about information about the technology exhibition was written by Zhou Mingyi stroke by stroke on the blackboard in the meeting room. This was another general meeting of Jieke Company. The company's president, Tang Ran, general manager, Cheng Qian, and everyone in the marketing and technology departments were in the meeting room. However Jieke only has fifteen people at the moment, so it doesn't really matter if it's a full meeting or not.
'According According to the information that Cheng Qian and I have previously obtained, the future president of Suffolk, Mr. Lie Boten, will personally visit the Forte Technology Exhibition in order to gain a better understanding of the various companies, as well as the current IT market and computer equipment gain a better understanding of. To put it more bluntly, this is a test run for the president of Suffolk to gauge all the potential bidders before the tendering process begins. Passing this test run will have a huge impact on future tenders!
Zhou Ming putting his hands on the table and looking at everyone in the meeting, said, 'So, after discussing with President Tang, I have decided that our company, Jieke, must also participate in this technology exhibition.'
Although when Zhou Ming wrote the relevant information about the Forte Science and Technology Exhibition on the blackboard, everyone already thought that Zhou Ming wanted to participate. However, when Zhou Ming actually said said, it still caused a stir in the meeting room. What everyone didn't expect was that the surprise was just beginning.
'I person is a very ambitious person, so since we are going to participate in this technology exhibition, we must come up with something that will definitely impress the customers, so that this test, even if it doesn't get a perfect score of 100, must at least get a score of over 90!'
Zhou Ming pointed to the technical department: 'Manager Liu Qiang, you are a top student from the University of California, majoring in information technology, and you have always been in charge of technology. So I'll leave it to you. Any questions?'
Facing Zhou Ming pointing out the problems, Liu Qiang looked very embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, he finally said, 'Vice President Zhou, I'm afraid I won't be able to complete this task...'
Liu Qiang's words was only a beginning, and was corrected by Zhou Ming: 'Manager Liu, you can say it's difficult, or you can just ask me questions directly, but please don't just say outright that it can't be done.'
'I'm very sorry I'm sorry.' Liu Qiang reorganized his thoughts and continued, 'Our technology exhibition is very difficult because Jieke has only done some technology promotion and has no experience in participating in this type of large-scale technology exhibition. I we didn't know what to do, let alone the fact that we would be meeting customers face-to-face this time. I don't think Vice President Zhou knows that a lot of our equipment is quite outdated.'
At the end of his speech, and let out a heavy sigh. In fact, his words were not difficult to understand. The central idea was that Jack Electronics had never participated in such a technology exhibition even in its heyday. Now it was in such a sorry state, and its equipment was completely out of step with the times. How could it participate? You have to understand that it is the biggest tech exhibition in Silicon Valley. Wouldn't that be a disgrace in front of everyone?
Zhou Ming nodded: 'I admit that this is indeed a very important problem that is in front of us.'
Zhou Ming then made a sharp turn in his tone: 'But that is not a reason for you to back down, Manager Liu. You must understand that you are the manager of the technology department, and Jacko's lagging technology is directly related to you . If you don't find a way to improve the technology yourself, or rent it from your friends or other companies, do you think you can solve the problem just by complaining to me?'
Liu Qiang lowered his head 'I'm sorry, Vice President Zhou, I understand. I will take action immediately and strive to make us the most advanced technology company in Silicon Valley before the technology exhibition begins!'
Zhou Ming smiled and waved his hand and said, 'Forget this unrealistic promise. After the meeting, President Cheng will give you a document with the current equipment and various software in the Suffolk company database. Take a good look at the technology.'
Liu Qiang's eyes suddenly light. 'I promise to fulfil my mission!'
After the meeting, Zhou Ming and Cheng Qian left the company together. They needed to go to Fortel to discuss participating in the exhibition. After all, this kind of exhibition is not a roadside stall, where anyone who wants to set up can just pull up a cart. It requires a unified arrangement by Fortel. And as Liu said, Jack Company has never done an exhibition before, and this time they are cramming at the last minute, so it is even more necessary to negotiate well.
After getting into the car, suddenly asked Zhou Ming, 'Vice President Zhou, do you really believe that Liu Qiang and the technical department can make the best equipment and software in Silicon Valley in such a short time?'
Zhou Ming did not answer, but instead asked him, 'So do you believe it?'
Cheng Qian shook his head and replied 'I don't believe it. This is not meant as an insult or a slight to Liu Qiang. I'm just saying that if he really had the ability, I'm afraid that Jieke would have long since become a top company in Silicon Valley. Even if the consortium wanted to control the company, they would eventually give in to the interests.'
'That's true . The past success of Jieke was only due to the rise of Internet technology, and there is nothing particularly outstanding about the company itself. 'Zhou Ming continued, 'But that doesn't matter. Although technology is a manifestation of a company's hard power, it is also possible to build a booth with other companies, rely on other high-tech companies to lend their support, and add something specific to Suffolk, and still get through.'
Cheng Qian heard the unspoken meaning in Zhou Zhou Ming's words: 'So Vice President Zhou, the real problem you are worried about is actually how to get into the exhibition, right?'
Zhou Ming thought about it for a while and asked him in return, 'Mr. Cheng, if you were the general manager of Forte, would you allow a small company like Jieke, which has been losing money year after year, to enter the exhibition?'
Cheng thought carefully and replied, 'I don't think I would allow it. It has nothing to do with the size of the company, the key lies in Jacko's losses and turnover. Although I hate to say it, with a turnover of 200,000 a month, I'm afraid it's not enough to pay for the exhibition fees. If a company like this is allowed to enter the exhibition by Forte, it is basically smearing its own reputation, which no one who wants to build a brand would ever allow.'
'So I can only hope that the person in charge of Fortel is not an outstanding manager who just wants to create higher sales, then I still have a chance,' Zhou Ming laughed.
