Chapter 1311: Reconciliation Is Worse than Before
Randolph was stunned for a moment by Hastings's direct words. He felt a little relieved. This was something he had thought about many times. However, for some reason, seeing Hastings say it so directly, There are some different emotions growing in my heart.
Hastings had obviously anticipated Randolph's reaction, "You know, I can't let go of Netflix. During this time, I have been paying close attention to the company's trends,"
Randolph almost wanted to say, "You should also pay close attention to my movements. I have followed me clearly several times."
"I find that what you said is right. Feng's idea can indeed make Netflix develop better," Hastings said, but he found that Randolph did not respond to this sentence as he expected. He looked very happy.
Shouldn't it?
"Not only does he have a very clear and scientific plan for the future development direction of Netflix, but he has also done a lot of preparation work for Netflix, especially YouTube. This is really an excellent approach,"
"Combining Netflix with video websites is something I couldn't have imagined," Hastings shook his head. "We all focus on finding solutions from within the industry, but Feng is good at jumping outside. This should be This is the biggest difference between us and him,"
Based on his understanding of Hastings, Randolph felt that these words were Hastings' true words.
"But I still feel that there are still areas for improvement in the grand plans he proposed. I have been thinking about these issues these days and have already come up with some very good ideas."
In the past, Randolph would definitely have said, "Come and tell us," but now he only said, "Feng just set a general direction for us and how to implement it, he will not interfere."
Hastings concealed another disappointment and unhappiness, "You are right, Feng is a person who is good at delegating power. My worries at the time were unnecessary,"
Randolph finally understood why he felt a little uncomfortable. In that case, do you have to apologize sincerely first?
"I also observed the status of the company's employees and found that they were as motivated as when we first started the business. It was just that in the previous period, our direction was a little biased,"
"But it's different now. With Feng's planning and arrangements, we can fully realize our original dream,"
“Those days were really the happiest days,” Hastings said leisurely.
The bar is always very noisy, but at this table, there are two people who are not mature enough to often reminisce about the past years, but they are a bit out of tune with the people around them. They look like they are nostalgic for the past.
Randolph took the initiative to touch the bottle with him. Indeed, those days when he was not too concerned about personal gains and losses, but mainly about realizing his dreams, are indeed nostalgic.
"So Randolph, I very much hope that we can work together again. This time, we are fully confident that we can achieve what we originally pursued and, as Feng said, build Netflix into a large media company," Hastings Si looked at Randolph eagerly.
Randolph understood the deeper reasons for his unhappiness.
He has actually been looking forward to Hastings returning to Netflix, and he is fully capable of appearing in his current position.
Although the position of CEO makes Julia very happy, this position is still very stressful for him. Although he is not unable to cope with the pressure, this state does not make him feel happy.
The problem is that there are some things that he can take the initiative to make concessions on his own, but Hastings asked for it himself and did not show a trace of apology for those things in the past few months. He really felt uncomfortable in his heart.
If it weren't for you, would there be so many problems later?
Hastings looked at Randolph and saw that he didn't blurt out "Okay," and he immediately thought that the reason why Randolph had this attitude was because he liked the position of Netflix CEO.
I really misjudged him before.
It can only be said that many people are not used to looking for reasons in themselves.
"I also miss those early days, and I also look forward to working with that old guy again who listens to his opinions and puts the interests of the company first," Randolph said. "Hastings, are you sure you can do it now?" This?"
He feels that Feng Yiping's ideas are perfect. The main problem now is how to work hard to realize Feng Yiping's ideas. He doesn't want Hastings, who has a strong personality, to become the stubborn and self-willed person after returning to the company. Hastings.
This will inevitably lead to conflicts with Feng Yiping, who seems to be gentle but is actually difficult to make concessions, which will inevitably affect the company's development.
Randolph didn't want any more changes.
"I admire Feng's ideas and measures very much, really," Hastings said. "I admit that I was a little stubborn and a little repelled by him at the beginning."
This was actually equivalent to admitting his mistake, but he still couldn't say the words to apologize.
However, his next sentence touched Randolph a little, "These days, I finally understand a truth. It's not that Netflix can't do without me. Netflix can still develop well without me; it's that I can't do without Netflix." Fei, after leaving Netflix, I lost all interest in anything else,"
Randolph was silent for a moment, "Of course, I welcome your return, but you know, the key lies in Feng's attitude,"
He actually knew Feng Yiping's attitude towards Hastings and would welcome him back to Netflix. But at this time, he couldn't help but pull Feng Yiping out as a shield.
The main thing is that Hastings' attitude really doesn't satisfy him.
"Of course, I'm ready to talk to Feng about this issue," Hastings was somewhat satisfied for the first time tonight, and Randolph still gave the answer he wanted.
These days, he has been studying Feng Yiping's speech at Netflix, and he is very sure that some of his recent ideas will satisfy Feng Yiping.
"Thank you, man," he stretched out his hand.
"Welcome," Randolph shook his hand.
Hastings can play a greater role in the development of Netflix than ordinary people, at least Randolph is sure of this.
"Hi," Hastings happily called the waitress, "a bottle of champagne for our table, and," he stood up and said loudly, "everyone drink as much as you can, all the wine today, I will buy it!"
"Oh," the bar immediately became more lively.
Randolph watched the atmosphere in the bar reach a climax all of a sudden, and watched Hastings who enjoyed everyone's thanks. It seems that some people just like to be the center of attention, and also enjoy being the center of attention. In this regard, he is indeed not as good as Hastings.
"Cheers," Hastings happily clinked glasses with champagne, "This weekend, take Julia and the kids, we'll go on vacation to Las Vegas, I'll treat you,"
They used to have a good relationship, and the relationship between the two families was also good, but they naturally became estranged during this period.
He couldn't say the words of apology, which was also Hastings's effort to repair the relationship between the two families.
Although the old friend in front of him was a little strange, he was the one who knew him best after all. With the nourishment of beer and champagne, eating hamburgers and fries, and chatting about some interesting things in the past, Randolph and Hastings became more and more tacit, as if they had returned to the past.
Randolph, who was a little drunk, looked at the pictures flashing on the TV and immediately shouted, "Just watch this, turn up the volume,"
"Of course you are the boss, Randolph," the guy behind the bar said with a smile.
In his eyes, Hastings has become a thing of the past, and Randolph is the helmsman of the company that has been developing better and better recently.
"Julia," Randolph called his wife, "Look at the TV, the Charlie Rose Show has started, and Feng is the guest,"
Julia turned on the TV and listened to the noisy echo from his side, "You're not in the company?"
"Hehe, I'm in the bar, with Hastings,"
Seeing Hastings motioning beside him, he said, "Wait a minute, he wants to talk to you,"
Julia didn't understand how the two of them got together again, and it seemed that they were chatting well. Hastings was already greeting her, "Hello Julia, it's me. I just discussed with Randolph. This weekend, we all take the children, or not, to Las Vegas for vacation. What do you think?"
Julia, who only considers Randolph and her own family, is very alert. What is he going to do? Didn't the recent incident happen?
"The company is very busy now and cannot do without Randolph. I wonder if he has time on the weekend. Also, let Randolph drink less, he has to go to work tomorrow,"
Julia's words were implicit and implicit. What "busy", "can't do without", "go to work" made Hastings feel comfortable. In front of me, do you need to emphasize these things?
She didn't do this before?
PS: I'm very sorry. I've been busy recently. I'm very sorry that I just found out that my book friend Qiu Zhishen Guang has been promoted to the leader. Shen Guang has been following the book since the beginning of the book. In the past two years, he has insisted on giving rewards every day, rain or shine. In the past, there were many times when he was the only one in the reward column. It was not zero, which at least made me feel good. Thank you very much.
It is the silent support of many book friends like Shen Guang that has allowed me to persist and do my best to present the best results I can to everyone. Although I rarely mention it, mainly because I really don't like sensationalism, but I have always seen and remembered your support. It is my greatest honor and my greatest gain to get to know you through my own words.
Well, I promised not to be sentimental...
Next, I want to apologize to Shen Guang and everyone. I really can't guarantee to update more in the near future. I plan to move it to the Spring Festival. Please understand!
Once again, thank you Shen Guang, thank you to all the book friends who support me, thank you everyone!
