Chapter 1674: Discussion
Early the next morning, Sandberg came to the company in high spirits.
Yes, although it is a difficult decision to accept Feng Yiping's invitation, it is a joy to be appreciated by Feng Yiping.
When looking at today's work schedule and looking at the colleagues in the team about solutions to some problems, she would unconsciously wonder, if Facebook also adopted such a strategy, would it have very good results?
When going to the tea room, looking at the vibrant office area, she couldn't help but think, if those in front of her, those upstairs, including those in the surrounding buildings, all accepted her leadership, what would happen? What's it like?
There were some things she didn't say to her husband last night.
In her opinion, Feng Yiping's invitation was the biggest temptation for her, whether to continue making phoenix tails or make chicken heads.
The paradox is that if you continue to stay at the position of the phoenix tail, you should still be able to move to the phoenix head in the future, but the chicken head over there may also evolve into a phoenix head in the future.
Well, another dilemma.
The sun is shining brightly today, it’s a really nice day, she said to herself as she looked out the window.
At this time, someone knocked twice on the door, "Sandberg,"
She looked back and stood up quickly, "Mayer,"
What's going on? Why do people with such attention keep coming to me in the past two days?
Sandberg saw that many guys were secretly looking at this place outside the office.
It can be said that since Google went public, more and more people have paid attention to Mayer. The reason is simple. Among so many male engineers at Google, a blonde beauty like her is really eye-catching.
Therefore, the light on her body became more and more dazzling.
From previous interviews with magazines and media, to being promoted to vice president and appearing on the famous "Today Show", more and more people know her, and more and more people like her.
She also bought a luxury apartment on the top floor of the Four Seasons Hotel in San Francisco, so she had become the most popular beauty in San Francisco's upper class.
Some male colleagues in the company were used to seeing her, but now they would inevitably feel that her charm was even greater than before - she was already well-known throughout the country.
In the company, wherever she appears, she must be the focus and center.
"Have a seat," Sandberg said.
Even as a pursuing career woman, she still feels a little offended by the reception Mayer has received.
However, what can be done? Some things, such as those given by parents, cannot be changed. Not only is she younger than him, but she also looks more popular with superficial men.
"Nothing, just passing by. I see you are also very busy, so I won't interrupt you. Can we meet during lunch?" Mayer stood there and said with a smile.
"Okay," Sandberg said, not even asking why.
He's the vice president, and he took the initiative to come over to make an appointment, so how could he not give me face?
"See you at lunch," Mayer said, leaving a nice look on Sandberg's back and a shy smile on the male colleagues who were staring at her.
Yes, she has always claimed that she is a little shy, but of course, she can still complete the social activities required by her work.
Sandberg somewhat believes in this character trait she described herself, because Mayer is indeed not good at getting along with her subordinates, and this is exactly what Sandberg is good at.
…………
After the buzzing of the mobile phone stopped, as expected, the landline phone rang again. Huang Jingping signaled, and Amanda immediately jumped to answer the phone.
Her eyes were finally healed, and Huang Jingping was finally able to take off her sunglasses. She seemed to be changing TV channels, but in fact, she had been paying attention to what was happening on the phone.
"Goodbye, I love your dad," Amanda put down the phone and was about to take the candy to the backyard to have fun. Huang Jingping asked, "Wait, what did dad say?"
"I didn't say anything. I just asked if you were okay and if I was okay. Oh, by the way, dad said he misses us very much and hopes to go home early."
"Oh," Huang Jingping knew that she was speaking to herself.
"Mom, is dad's job this time difficult?"
Huang Jingping touched her daughter's head and said, "Yes, it's difficult. Okay, let's go play."
Looking at her daughter's happy figure in the yard, she still couldn't be happy at this time.
…………
On the other side, when calling Ma Ling, she would always pick up the call on time, "Don't order takeout tonight. I'll go home and cook immediately. In an hour, you ask Owen to pick it up at home."
"I'll do it. How about you send it here?" Feng Yiping felt a little agitated in his heart.
"Don't tempt me," Ma Ling laughed and hung up the phone.
Feng Yiping shook his head, said something to Owen, looked outside in melancholy for a while, and then buried his head in reading the report he received today.
His book "Big Data" will be officially put on the shelves of bookstores across the United States tomorrow, but his company has already conducted some analysis on last year's data.
What he is looking at now is a relatively rough report made by NEXTDOOR. After integrating the data from various sections, NEXTDOOR has issued a lot of rankings. For example, which state's residents spend the most on meals on average, which state Residents spend the most on sports events, which places like cats, which places prefer dogs..., there are many items, and these data can prompt the company to make targeted adjustments to some strategies in order to achieve success in the future. While satisfying users, it can also increase the company's profits.
The report on holiday consumption expenditures of American residents made him feel a little emotional.
The holiday with the most spending is, of course, Thanksgiving. The spending on Thanksgiving accounts for nearly 60% of the total spending on festivals throughout the year on average. This is really no different from the Spring Festival in China.
The next thing that was not surprising was Thanksgiving. The third one, which surprised him a little, was actually Valentine's Day? So, will everyone’s spending on Valentine’s Day in China also rise to third place in the future?
What made him sigh was that Mother's Day ranked fourth, while Father's Day ranked sixth. The cost of Mother's Day was about 1.5 times that of Father's Day.
It seems that although Americans do not favor sons over daughters when it comes to treating their offspring, they definitely favor mothers over fathers when it comes to treating parents.
It is conceivable that Amanda and Vincent love their mother more than themselves.
At this time the doorbell rang, and he was stunned. At this time, would there be any visitors here? "Boss, it's Mayer," said Irving, who was about to go to Malina.
Mayer? Feng Yiping looked through the intercom and saw that it was indeed Mayer. She stuck her head out of the car window and said to the camera, "Come out and get my things."
It's really weird, how did she know this place?
"Hey, come on. Why are you bringing so many things? You're too polite." Feng Yiping looked at the things in the trunk, including ingredients, fruits, and drinks. "Owen, bring them all in,"
"However, this is a good habit and can be maintained. By the way, why are you so free and you don't have to work overtime tonight?"
"I originally thought the new house was pretty good, but when I compared it with yours, the gap became clear," Mayer said with some envy as he followed him around from the front to the back.
Feng Yiping had already opened a bottle of the wine she brought, "The wine is a bit bad. I can bring better ones in the future."
"Don't pretend to understand, as if you can taste the quality of wine," Mayer said without hesitation.
It’s no secret that he has a poor drinking tolerance, has no research on wine, and has no concept.
"After get off work, I bought these things and hurried home. I picked up a bottle from the wine cabinet. But the ones I put there are not bad. This is the top wine from a well-known winery in Napa Valley. Okay?"
Feng Yiping thought she bought it casually in the supermarket, so he quickly changed the subject, "Have you talked to Sandberg?"
Even Page and the others don't know they live here, only Sandberg knows.
"Your days of living alone seem to be going very well. Why, are you prepared?" Mayer asked with a smile.
"You know, I have a cold and I'm afraid it will be transmitted to Amanda, so I might as well move here to live for a few days," Feng Yiping said without changing his expression.
"Tch!" Mayer rolled her eyes at him and took a sip of wine. "Jingping must have found out about your son, and then she was kicked out of the house, right, poor man."
"You haven't eaten yet. I want you to try my cooking tonight." She didn't dwell on this issue that might make Feng Yiping feel uncomfortable for too long. She walked towards the kitchen, "What are you doing sitting here? You can come too." ,"
"Sorry, the poor man not only has no knowledge of wine, but also has no knowledge of cooking,"
"What are you pretending to be? It's not like I've never eaten your cooking at your house," Mayer pulled him towards the kitchen without any explanation.
"You really don't need me to cook. Really, I have something to eat."
"Can you compare to me? Just feel honored. I rarely cook for others."
She had already said this, but Feng Yiping really couldn't say anything.
It should be said that cooking Western food at home is much simpler than cooking Chinese food after eliminating the complicated appetizers, soups, desserts, etc.
Mayer cooked steak and lobster tonight, one pan-fried and the other steamed. It was so delicious that you didn’t even need to use a knife.
Oh, it was still moving. She chopped some onions and some cilantro, as well as cauliflower and asparagus for sauce and plating.
There is no other meaning, but if there is a woman busy in the kitchen in this house, it feels really warm.
Feng Yiping seriously praised her results: the steak was cooked just right and the sauce was very special; the lobster also caught up with the level of Legal Sea Foods (a famous high-end seafood restaurant chain in the United States).
Just when Mayer was smiling, Irving walked in with two large lunch boxes. When he opened them, he found sweet and sour pork ribs, beef with potatoes, fried cod steaks, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, chicken soup, and more and more authentic dishes. Yangzhou fried rice.
"You really have something to eat," Mayer looked a little complicated, "It's very Chinese, so it must have been made by Ms. Ma Ling,"
Really, Feng Yiping didn't know the logic between this reason and the result.
"Looking at the time Owen spent, I knew he definitely didn't get it from Jingping. I also tried it. Well, it's really good."
"This is true or false," Feng Yiping said, looking at her scrunched up face after taking a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs.
This dish is not something that some people in China are used to.
Mayer took a big sip of water, "But she must be very beautiful, this is always true,"
"Do you not understand why I invited Sandberg to be the COO of Facebook?" Feng Yiping did not answer her.
"I read her information and took the time to learn about her work in the company today. It is indeed quite good. Although I think it may be a bit challenging to let her take full charge of so many tasks of Facebook all of a sudden, but since you chose her, you must have your reasons," Mayer said.
"This is a decision I made carefully after a comprehensive analysis of her abilities and potential. With my approval, I believe that she will definitely give us a surprising answer in the future."
"I am also reducing your burden. When the time is right and you are in charge of my American affairs, you will find that she will definitely be a very rare assistant."
"But you should be able to see that she is still hesitating."
"For such a big thing, it is normal to be a little hesitant. If you really like her, then as long as you do more work for her, she shouldn't hesitate for long," Mayer said, "You know how good you are at persuading people."
"Am I?"
Mayer ignored his fancy words for praise.
"When do you think it is the right time for me to work for you?" she asked, "Also, I want to confirm whether tonight is the right time for me to stay?"
Feng Yiping picked up the wine glass and blocked her fiery eyes. From this angle, the world turned pink.
There was wind blowing outside the house, and it sounded like the wind tonight was also a lot softer...
