Chapter 1321 Farewell
"It feels like you've grown taller again,"
"Really?" Vincent tried hard enough.
"Really, don't move. We'll measure him again later." In the bathroom, Feng Yiping wrapped his son in a fluffy bath towel.
She must have known that he would leave soon and would have to wait for a long time before seeing each other again. My son was very clingy to him. When he saw him taking a bath, he would also take a bath with him.
Sitting on the sunny window sill with his son in his arms, Feng Yiping watched him under the hot air of the hair dryer, opening his eyes with a "hmm" sound, and closing his eyes with a "swipe" sound. He looked naughty, cute and extremely cute. Feng Yiping Then all the troubles really disappeared.
"It's packed," Ma Ling came over with her son's clothes. She had just packed Feng Yiping's suitcase.
"How about you take your son with you tonight?" In addition to Mike, Buchanan also knew Ma Ling and Vincent. For the sake of future work, Feng Yiping felt that it would be better for the others, Cummings and Randolph to also It is quite necessary to know them.
"No," Ma Ling immediately refused, "I think this is the best state now." If possible, she even hoped that except for Owen, who could not be avoided, anyone else under Feng Yiping knew about her and Vincent.
Feng Yiping could only say feebly, "I'm sorry."
"No," Ma Ling rejected him again, "This is my own choice,"
She quickly helped Vincent get dressed neatly, "Go and sort out the toys on your balcony,"
Seeing his son running out happily, Feng Yiping's biggest worry was that he would alienate himself in the future. Ma Ling seemed to know what he was thinking and hugged his waist, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
"Thank you," Feng Yiping kissed her on the forehead.
"But you must come over tonight," Ma Ling whispered, "Well, you know, I seem to have found a nurse's uniform in the closet?"
Feng Yiping immediately brightened up, "I will definitely come,"
"Um, are you sure there's no police?"
Man!

In the evening, the spacious hall at Feng Yiping's house became a little crowded for the first time. The banquet caterer set up a long table here that was almost as long as the restaurant. Like all formal banquets, in addition to tableware, the dining seats were in the middle. There are also blooming flowers.
The company's senior executives in the United States were all dressed in formal attire, and many of them were sitting on both sides with their family members in evening gowns. Under the gorgeous crystal lamp, they were drinking and drinking, smiling and whispering, a group of wealthy and leisurely upper-class people. character.
Waiters wearing white shirts and bow ties filed in holding covered plates one by one. The previous order had been served, and now it was time to serve the main course.
"Dangdangdang," Feng Yiping, who was sitting at the end, tapped his cup with a fork, "Everyone knows that Vice President Buchanan is about to start his new career. Of course, in a certain sense, this is also his career. A kind of return. Now, I welcome him to say a few words,"
Buchanan kissed his wife beside him and said, "Thank you Feng, thank you all," he said to Cummins, Mike, Randolph, Tesla, Martin, Mark and Straubel, who were sitting at the long table. Merback, who came from Seattle, and other company executives said.
He knew very well that this was the first time the company had gathered so many senior executives for personal reasons.
"In the beginning, I chose to join NEXTDOOR out of selfish motives, because this is a company that serves the people. For someone like me who wants a position on Capitol Hill, you don't have to please your boss. , but be sure to please the people whose support you want,"
He had no scruples in exposing the reasons why he accepted the job in the first place in front of everyone.
"However, I later discovered that this job, beyond my expectation, gave me so much, made up for a lot of my shortcomings, and also gave me more capital to start over."
"This job made me fall in love with this place, this job, and each of our colleagues very quickly,"
"Silicon Valley is a place that is completely different from Capitol Hill and all public institutions. It is direct and efficient. When we discover a new field, there are not too many trade-offs. The first thing we think about is how to get there. execution, and in this process, the interests of all team members will be reliably protected. I love this place,”
"The people here are simple and pure. They are different from the civil servants I have been in contact with before. There will be competition among everyone, but they will not cause trouble. The common goal is how to achieve the goal faster and better. I love people like this ,"
He was a little excited, "Now I think about the days and nights I worked with everyone, every bit of it, and now I look at the familiar colleagues, partners, friends, and partners here,"
Buchanan picked up the glass and drank the glass of wine in one gulp. "Sometimes I wonder if my decision is right,"
His wife was sitting on the side. She didn't speak for a while. She just pressed his hand on the table and looked at him firmly. "But Feng told me that dreams are the most precious. If you can The opportunity to realize it must be seized,”
"So, please forgive me for being absent halfway, and I wish you all the best for all the projects we are working on. Of course, I also believe that all the projects we are currently running and will run in the future will be the same as Facebook and YouTube recently. It is developing prosperously,”
"Thank you for your support over the past period of time. Thank you. I will always remember you and I will always be with you. Thank you, thank you!"
At the end, perhaps he was really moved. Everyone could clearly see that tears were flashing in the corners of his eyes.
"Buchanan, we love you too," said Merback, who had the deepest friendship with him, raising his glass.
"We love you too," Mike and the others followed suit.
The atmosphere was solemn just now, but it became cheerful again.
"When the headhunting company recommended Buchanan to us at the beginning, I was attracted by his connections in the public sector," Feng Yiping said, "but after getting along with him for a few years, I sincerely admire Buchanan in many aspects. The company's current good situation in North America and many of the foundations for our smooth development today actually rely on Buchanan's fruitful work,"
"I support him in pursuing his dreams, and I also want him to know that no matter what time, the company will always be his strongest backing,"
Feng Yiping said this sincerely.
Although his words, including his arrangements, are naturally utilitarian,
Because he knew that with Buchanan's personal ability and the support he could give him, he would definitely have a good position in O'Hei's team in the future.
But more of it was gratitude.
What he disliked most was dealing with bureaucrats, whether domestic or foreign. One of the biggest features of NEXTDOOR, which focuses on security and authenticity, is its cooperation with the powerful agencies of the US federal government and various states, and it is impossible to avoid dealing with various bureaucrats.
Buchanan took on most of the work in this regard, not only helping him connect with the most promising political leaders in the United States, but also helping him connect with Canada. Feng Yiping was really grateful for this.
At the same time, Buchanan, who was born as a staff member, completed all the tasks entrusted to him by Feng Yiping very well. To be fair, he is really a perfect subordinate and person in charge for Feng Yiping and the company.
"Thank you for everything you have done for the company and for me," Feng Yiping and Buchanan clinked glasses.
…………
The party always has to end. Buchanan was holding a glass of wine and chatting with Feng Yiping and others in the backyard. He saw his wife standing at the door and pointing at her watch to signal him, "Sorry, everyone, I have to go. I still have some luggage to pack at home."
"Goodbye," Merback smiled and hugged him goodbye, "Do a good job. I look forward to calling you 'sir' one day earlier,"
"Thank you, take care,"
"I'll take you," Feng Yiping followed him to the parking lot in front of the house and personally sent them to the car, "See you tomorrow,"
"By the way," he took a large envelope from Owen and handed it to Buchanan, "Keep this,"
The car was almost at the foot of the mountain, and Buchanan still didn't open the envelope. His wife was a little curious, "What could this be?"
"Take a look,"
"Wow," after reading only a few lines of words, his wife couldn't help but shout, it was an equity transfer agreement, which was actually to determine his options in NEXTOOR in advance.
This 1.2% equity means that the couple will never have to worry about money again.
