Chapter 1280 Can’t Afford to Be Hurt

"Wait," Susan shouted to the elevator while holding a cup of coffee in one hand and a bag in the other.

The elevator door that was about to close opened, and Randolph stood inside with a smile, "Thank you, boss,"

Oh, she suddenly saw the young man with black hair and yellow skin standing next to the boss. This must be the new boss. She was a little nervous. Was my performance just now okay?

"Feng, this is my secretary Susan. Susan, this is our new chairman, Mr. Yiping Feng," Randolph introduced them to the two.

"Hello Susan, nice to meet you," Feng Yiping smiled and shook hands with Susan, "I've heard of you a long time ago. That day, you were the only one in the company standing next to Randolph. Thank you!"

He was talking about the day when Randolph and Hastings turned against each other and were "resigned."

So he even knew this? Susan was a little happy. It seemed that the new boss had a good impression of her. "I am Mr. Randolph's secretary. I must stand on his side,"

"Under the circumstances at the time, it was rare for a girl like you to do that," Feng Yiping said with appreciation.

"Mr. Feng, I think what you said is wrong. Why do you emphasize that I am a girl and I am rare?" Susan looked at Feng Yiping seriously.

I didn't expect this person to be so sensitive? Feng Yiping reacted immediately. It seems that this person should be an active feminist, but this is also reasonable, otherwise she would not have been so brave and resolute to support Randolph with actions that day.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to discriminate against women," Feng Yiping explained immediately.

In China, saying such words can really be regarded as a compliment, but in the United States, especially for some sensitive women, this is really not a compliment, and can even be used to sue.

This is not a joke. The majority of American women comrades have made a lot of hard efforts to fight for equal rights with men, although some of these efforts make people feel like a joke.

For example, there was a feminist group that protested against the inequality in sexual rights with men, exposing their breasts in 30 American cities and 10 cities around the world (I deeply feel that this scale is too small, and the steps can be taken bigger).

Moreover, because the Equal Rights Amendment, which is centered on gender equality, has not yet been included in the Constitution, feminists who feel that the revolution has not yet succeeded are sometimes more hasty.

This can't actually be blamed on the radicalism of American feminism. Some of their behaviors that sometimes seem to be full and have nothing to do do do have reasons. For example, one surprising fact is that even in federal law, the term "person" in the United States does not include women.

In 1881, the U.S. Supreme Court reinterpreted the term "person" and determined that it also included "company". Feminist workers took the opportunity to propose that this term should naturally include women, and therefore women should also be equally protected by law; however, the Supreme Court once again made a ruling contrary to the historical trend: they determined that the term "person" can include companies, but not women...

Of course, in reality, there is no such thing as suing for a sentence, and in the case that Susan is white and Feng Yiping is yellow, this matter is even less feasible.

Susan can sue Feng Yiping for gender discrimination, and Feng Yiping can also sue Susan for racial discrimination... The latter can get more sympathy from everyone.

Probably thinking that what she said just now might be a bit straightforward, Susan explained, "Is this sentence a compliment to me in the context of China? Thank you, Mr. Feng,"

"You're welcome, and thank you for your reminder. I will pay attention to it in the future. By the way, why do you always come to work so early?" Feng Yiping immediately changed the subject. He didn't want the atmosphere in this small elevator to become awkward.

He asked this because it was still half an hour before the working time.

"Because I often go to work early, Susan always goes to work at this time," Randolph endorsed his secretary.

This also fully shows that Americans are not always talking about power and not about human feelings.

"Although I don't advocate such behavior," he wanted to advocate it, but he was afraid of getting into a lawsuit again, "but I am very grateful for your efforts in work,"

"Speaking of this, boss," Susan held the coffee and looked at Feng Yiping seriously, "Then can you give me a raise?"

Feng Yiping choked again, feeling really hurt.

Can I still have a pleasant chat with the boss?

You look like a simple and beautiful girl, can't you not want power and money?

At this moment, he really felt that the capitalist society in the United States was really evil. Look, a beautiful girl who looked pretty good was trained by you, oh no, what kind of education did she become?

"I think it's completely okay, but you know, I don't ask about the specific affairs of the company, and I'm not a member of the company's compensation committee, so you have to ask Randolph about this matter," he passed the ball beautifully, "Randolph, what do you think?"

"Susan, I think your request is reasonable, but you know that the company has just experienced such a big change, there are many things to do, and people's hearts are a little unstable. If I give you a salary increase at this time, I'm worried that there will be a bad impact,"

"So, at least wait until next month, okay?" Randolph's trick of procrastination is also used to perfection.

Just as the elevator arrived, Susan didn't say anything anymore. She just took a sip of coffee, glanced at the two men, then shook her head and walked out with her hair swaying.

Both Feng Yiping and Randolph knew the subtext, and it was nothing more than, "You irresponsible men!"

Feng Yiping deliberately slowed down, "With such a secretary, it seems that your working life will definitely be a lot of fun,"

He originally wanted to say something exciting, but he was worried that it would imply sexual harassment - in the United States, there are so many such things.

"I know," Randolph laughed.

When everyone is looking for a secretary, they naturally choose someone with a good personality. It is best to choose someone who can be submissive sometimes - a person with distorted expressions.

At the very least, one must be able to tolerate the boss's sometimes unprovoked anger, but Feng Yiping felt uneasy about Randolph.

If you vent your anger on her for no reason, she will immediately roll up her sleeves and fight against you.

"She is a very simple and kind-hearted girl with good abilities. Okay, I will take you to the top of the building to have a look."

"Susan, remember to make Feng a cup of green tea," he called.

"Okay boss," Susan's reply was very clear and without any emotion. Feng Yiping suddenly felt that this girl was not innocent, she was so naive that she was heartless, she was naive to the point of being a bit naive.

Randolph took Feng Yiping to the roof of the yellow office building, facing the rising sun, and introduced him to the layout of the headquarters with great interest.

Feng Yiping closed his eyes and took a breath, and looked at this. Although it was his first time here in person, he was actually very familiar with it - because in the merger and acquisition documents, there was a detailed text and picture introduction to Netflix's real estate rights. .

"Randolph, you don't need to introduce this. You'd better tell me about the company's recent situation."

"Haha, I just want you to have an intuitive understanding of the company," Randolph was very happy when Feng Yiping came. He introduced these, which actually meant handing over work to Feng Yiping.

As he said to Feng Yiping, he was still used to standing behind others, picking up missing pieces, making suggestions, and leading everyone to charge into battle. This was not his strong point. As soon as Feng Yiping came, he felt that he had a backbone.

"Then where do you work?"

"I won't be here often, just give me a small conference room for temporary use," Feng Yiping still carried forward the old tradition.

…………

Before 9 o'clock, Netflix employees rushed to the company one after another. Employees working in the main building, intentionally or unintentionally, would go to the third floor to observe.

However, what made everyone a little disappointed was that the sunshades of the conference room that was said to be occupied by the new boss were tightly drawn at this time, and they had no idea what was going on inside.

It's quite mysterious.

In the reception room, there are still many people waiting for the first time. Some of them are still looking at the information. Are they all reporting to the new boss?

They say there are many companies with new bosses, and it seems that they really live up to their reputation.

Feng Yiping has already met with several senior executives of Netflix, including Wilson, who was originally replacing Randolph as vice president. Now he is receiving Zheng Jiayi, who is responsible for the news release of this merger.

"Yiping, as of yesterday, all the well-known newspapers, TV stations, websites and publications in the United States want to interview you. I can't stop you. When can you spare the time?" Zheng Jiayi seems to be used to and enjoying this work. .

"You can do it, Cummins can do it, Randolph can do it, but I won't accept interviews in the near future."

"Why? Everyone hopes to interview you most. Isn't this also beneficial to the company?" Zheng Jiayi asked puzzledly, "Besides, those who are going to interview you this time will not have any difficult topics."

The lessons learned from Coin Star still exist. The market is generally optimistic about Feng Yiping's another acquisition. Since yesterday, the stock prices of its three companies, Yijia Express Hotel, AutoNet, and Coin Star, have all increased slightly.

Against this background, those who wish to interview Feng Yiping should not have any difficult questions.

"It's not because of this." Feng Yiping can easily handle even the difficulties faced by celebrities like Oprah. Why is he still afraid of those reporters now?

"My style is to let actions speak for themselves. After a while, our subsequent arrangements will be implemented one by one and have a positive impact. It will not be too late to accept interviews by then,"

Zheng Jiayi thought about it and found that the market was now very optimistic about this merger, so there really was no need to publicize it any more.

On the contrary, Feng Yiping's approach is very good. We let actions speak first. Actions are always more convincing than words.

She believes that if things develop as planned, then from this time on, Feng Yiping will definitely leave the impression of "a very reliable person who never makes false promises" in the American business community.

That kind of impression is naturally a very good thing, and it will definitely be of great benefit to him in his future actions.

"Okay, I totally agree with what you're doing,"

"Yeah, I believe you can handle it. You seem to be adapting well. How was your vacation a few days ago? Is there any problem if you can't go home during the Spring Festival?"

"I think I quite like this job, but I also know that my current performance can only be rated as acceptable at best, but I am working hard and I believe I can do better."

Her words made Feng Yiping very happy. Judging from these words, she had at least become more professional than she was back home.

When she was in China, she would definitely not say the last two sentences.

"As for the holidays, don't mention it. I just took a quick tour of Hollywood, and then stayed at home to learn English, especially some American slang. I didn't have much contact with it before, and I feel that I need to strengthen it. Even Xinyang is more relaxed than me. She has attended several parties."

"Believe me, those parties are not interesting." Feng Yiping was very pleased that she, a genuine second-generation, could work so hard.

"I'm not used to not being able to go home during the Spring Festival. This is the first time I haven't spent the Spring Festival with my parents. However, old classmate, I believe you will arrange it. You won't ignore me, right?" Zheng Jiayi held the folder and acted pitiful.

So, this person just doesn't stand being praised. Just now he said you are very professional.

"Okay, okay, please call the next person,"

…………

At ten o'clock, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Feng Yiping's eyes suddenly lit up. Ma Ling walked in wearing a black suit and holding a bag.

Feng Yiping was familiar with the bag, but he had never seen the collarless suit with white trim on the two lapels and left breast pocket. It was the first time for her to appear in front of Feng Yiping as an office lady.

However, the white-collar lady looked very cold at this time, as if she was not familiar with Feng Yiping and was just doing business. "Hello, Mr. Feng!"

Feng Yiping had to smile bitterly.

ps: I have created a group, 454, 231, 228, welcome everyone to come and give more valuable suggestions, I look forward to the opportunity to communicate with you!
