Chapter 1048: The Temptation of Fame and Fortune

"Joyce, as a reporter, you should always be clear about your position and not waver in any way. I think you can do it."

"Now it seems that I overestimated you, so our deal has been cancelled. Starting today, you will no longer receive my help. Good luck."

Li Zitao was not prepared to do anything to her, provided that this matter ended here.

Ending the cooperation means that the information he provided before can no longer be used, and someone will pay for the abuse.

Joyce couldn't afford that price, and neither could the New York Times behind her, no doubt about it.

"Mr. Li..." Joyce got up and wanted to persuade her to stay. Judging from her expression and rolling eyes, she knew that her brain was spinning rapidly, looking for a reasonable explanation or excuse.

But Li Zitao didn't intend to give her hope, and left the fast food restaurant without hesitation.

This is the end of the deal between them, the previous decision was just a whim, if the other party is obedient, it may be maintained forever.

Now that there is no trust, there is no need to continue, and she will have to work hard on what to do next.

She has earned enough from this deal, it is shameful to be greedy.

But in fact, everyone has a greedy side, the only thing is whether they are discovered and controlled.

Joyce sucks at this, her self-control as hopeless as her greed.

So, after leaving the fast food restaurant and returning to her apartment, drinking and waking up, she puts the events of the previous night behind her.

The news of the "New York Times" is still hot. After finding that Hualian seems to have no action, some newspapers also began to quote their reports.

But before they enjoyed success, lawyer letters fluttered like snowflakes onto the desk in the editor-in-chief's office, and the pile was full without leaving any gaps.

The "New York Times" has collected a lot of data, and the report on Hualian seems to be true.

But in fact, the information they said is just a kind of "guessing and inference," after careful scrutiny. There is no direct evidence to show that the North American Chinese Federation is conducting a conscious and targeted layoff plan.

All the data show that Hualian's sales in North America have fallen off a cliff, and the loss of consumables and inventory has soared, reaching an astonishing peak in just a few years.

All these can prove that the layoffs are well-founded, and they did not choose to pursue responsibility, but just need to replace a group of new employees who are responsible and willing to work hard.

Judging from the recruitment situation, Hualian has no targeted tendency. Both white people and minorities can get job opportunities, as long as he performs well enough.

The soldiers are also given preferential treatment, and each store will even recruit a handicapped veteran, which greatly relieves the pressure on the army and social conflicts.

You must know that for these guys who have been destroyed on the battlefield, it is the most troublesome role to go crazy.

They should not be provoked easily, and they should not be detained like prisoners. We must always pay attention to the government's image and handling methods.

A careless mistake may cause misunderstandings in the military... In fact, it is nothing.

But if the rebellion of veterans is united, it will no longer be a small problem, but an avalanche of terrible disasters.

What's interesting is that all of Li's industries maintain good relations with the military, and Hualian's recruitment is a friendly signal.

Soldiers are given priority. As long as there are no guys with clear psychological problems, the success rate of applying is 100%, which is already the best answer.

Perhaps that's why the subsequent New York Times reports were weak, because they still couldn't prove anything.

The North American Chinese Federation is telling everyone with actions that they just want to get better and provide objective rewards and due treatment for those who are willing to work hard.

It's just that everyone is wondering why the "New York Times" has not been troubled, which seems a little unbelievable.

But inside the newspaper office, several strange figures appeared one after another for several days. Some people saw the big boss slamming the door and leaving,

The undercurrent is unsettling.

"Charlie, what do you want today?" Lange Bar, Li Zitao appeared here again, but this time his identity was changed to a contractor.

"Riesling, I want the best." Li Zitao smiled at the bartender.

"Your's is always the best." The bartender smiled and took the bottle from the top shelf, which held the best of the best.

"Haha, look at our nouveau riche, oh, look, what a thick gold ring." Jeremy appeared beside him with a strange smile.

"You bastard...Give him a glass." Li Zitao pointed at Jeremy, motioning the bartender to bring him the same glass.

"Hey buddy, have you noticed that over there?" Jeremy pointed to the right with the hand holding the wine glass, and said softly; "Exquisite and delicate baby face, little pity is waiting for luck, wow... .She seems interested in you."

Wearing a work striped uniform, holding red wine in his hand, the message of 'I'm a rookie, come and bully me' was written all over her pitiful face.

"Ha, it looks very interesting." Li Zitao felt as if he had seen her somewhere, so he decided to go up and ask her.

"Do I know you?" Li Zitao smiled when he came to Babyface, "You have been watching me for a long time."

"Uh...sorry, sir, I...I uh..." Babyface perfectly expressed what is called a rookie's reaction.

Li Zitao guessed that she was not only a rookie, but also just came to the neon city of New York from the countryside. She was at a loss, timid but fascinated by it.

"You work in a restaurant." Li Zitao remembered where he had seen her.

Sometimes he likes to go to the restaurant alone, enjoy the time alone, and look at the crowds of guests by the way, a bit like being a spectator.

And the baby face in front of him works at his favorite restaurant, she was not there last time, which also confirmed her rookie status.

Bo Siding Restaurant, located on Lexington Avenue, is elegant, solemn and mysterious, and is one of the best restaurants in New York.

They have a dress code for their guests, provide the best ingredients and drinks, and the guests who come and go are celebrities from all walks of life.

"Yes, my name is Shalin, Mr. Li, I met you in the restaurant, that's why..." Shalin pressed her lower lip with her finger, and smiled uneasy.

"For a girl who just came to New York, it's very lucky to get this job." Li Zitao hooked the bartender and put the empty glass on the table at the same time.

"Two glasses of whiskey, it's still my favorite." Riesling, Margarita, or anything else, can't replace his preference for whiskey.

"You're right. I care about my work very much. I work very much...I came here with my friends." Charlene pointed to the small circle of four or five people not far away.

It's just that judging from the situation in front of her, she doesn't seem to be very popular, otherwise why would she stand here drinking alone.
