Javier met Trevor at the hotel they had agreed on after work at night. While they had dinner, Trevor reported the recent work status and told Javier, “The man wants to talk to you face to face tonight. I’m guessing that there's an 80% chance of success, or else he wouldn’t have asked to meet.”Javier nodded and agreed easily. After all, he was the actual boss. He would have to show up to make decisions.After dinner, Javier had wanted to visit a gift shop to buy some health supplements or care package for Trevor’s ex-chairman. It did not matter what the gift was, it was the gesture.Trevor rejected, however. “He doesn’t accept gifts. He wouldn’t even agree to have a meal together tonight when I invited him.”No wonder. Javier had been complaining inwardly that Trevor was too pedantic and tactless that he did not know to ask the man out to a meal for the negotiation. It now seemed that he had misplaced the blame on Trevor. It was the old man who was too upright.It was not a bad th
Simon was happy. He had been under the impression that Javier was here to make money, but it was obviously not the case now. No profit maker would speak like that. Only people who wholeheartedly wanted to manufacture good cars talked like this.Hence, he was currently overjoyed despite being bombarded and berated just now.Simon headed inside the complex, pulling Javier along and ignoring Trevor. The latter was flummoxed, not expecting the superior he had had to act cautiously and reverently around to be lambasted by Javier. More importantly, Javier became the good guy even then. Yet, an obedient guy like him was ignored. It exasperated him.Nevertheless, Javier's words made blood rush within him and energized him so much that he felt proud of being a Chinean car manufacturer. It felt like the car was already made.Watching Javier’s retreating back, Trevor felt that working for such a fantastic boss was motivating. It was like he had boundless energy that he did not mind even if he
Quinna wore a pair of suit pants and a blouse when she came out of the room. The only thing on her that did not change was the black-framed glasses that reflected a feminine charm.“Dad, we’ll go talk in the study.”Quinna took Javier to the study after informing Simon, and the server, Trevor, was finally qualified to sit down. What a way of becoming a guest.Quinna closed the door of the study once they got in and frantically opened the window.“Look at how anxious you are. I’d have thought you’d jump off the building if there wasn't an anti-theft window outside.”That made Quinna glare at Javier directly. She even robbed him, asking him for cigarettes.“My dad doesn’t allow me to smoke. Since you’re here tonight, I’ll just say that you’re the one who smoked. You’ve got to be my scapegoat.”Javier was rendered speechless. His cigarettes were robbed, and he had to become a scapegoat.After the two of them lit up a cigarette each, Quinna enjoyed her puffs of smoke, looking like
Quinna did not say more on the matter of 30% of profit sharing. Her soft protest meant that she was not confident because she knew that others would have been more than happy to oblige with the 30% of profit sharing if Javier went to them with his car.It was not little at all as hydrogen-fueled vehicles did not need the market evaluable and professional assessment. It was convenient and thrifty. The biggest strength was that the battery would not have to be changed in six years compared to regular vehicles.Changing the battery would have taken thousands of dollars, and that was the biggest issue with using regular electric vehicles, but that was not required for hydrogen-fueled vehicles. Frankly, its battery storage was a sealed container that was temperature resistant.The biggest possibility was that there would be a leak, but that was fine. Hydrogen would evaporate swiftly, and an electric welder would repair it.This meant that a hydrogen-fueled car owned three popular factor
Saorise had not spoken empty words and had actually arrived. She was recently working on a new movie, and the party she would be collaborating with was within the area. Coincidentally, Javier was there as well, which was why she had flown over.As for whether Saoirse had flown because of her movie discussion or Javier…It was probably an obvious answer. However, there was one thing Javier was very sure of…He could not go all night that day. After around half an hour later, Saoirse, who had just gotten off the plane and was covered in dust, hurried to the hotel Javier was staying at.The moment she entered, Javier carried her in his arms all the way to the large bed.It was around an hour later by the time they were done.At the time, Javier was feeling refreshed and satisfied, both physically and mentally.“Javier, I don’t want you to call me your aunt from now on. I don’t want to sound so old.”With Saoirse’s gentle voice ringing by his ear, Javier asked, “What do you want
Javier rushed to the factory early the next morning. However, it was not just because he had to go to work but because he wanted to wait for Quinna’s news.‘Quinna said that she’s going to report it to the chairman today last night, but it’s already 10:00 a.m. now, so why hasn’t she said anything yet?’Javier knew that he should not feel rushed about the situation. Instead, he should calm down and wait for her, which he had, in fact, done so. However, he could not help but still feel slightly anxious.Actually, Javier was not the only one feeling anxious at the time. Quinna was as well. She had already arrived at the company early that morning.After meeting up with the chairman, she explained the hydrogen fuel propulsion system to him.Walt Schrader, the chairman, was especially excited. As a veteran in the automobile industry, it was only natural that he knew what the introduction of the hydrogen fuel propulsion system meant and what impact it would bring to the market. Howe
Jesse was very domineering at that moment.Walt had already taken the initiative to declare they were going to discuss the hydrogen fuel propulsion system, yet the deputy general manager ended up saying that he disagreed, even going as far to say that the discussion was over. So, who was actually the chairman of that company?This proved that Jesse really was bold enough to do whatever he wanted, however disrespectful it was. Most importantly, he was only a deputy general manager. After that, the other upper management each gave their own opinions, but all of them revolved around Jesse. Although they had not been as direct as Jesse, they indirectly expressed their objection, which was still a no-go at the end of the day. In the end, half of them remained silent, while the other half disagreed with the proposal. Walt said that the proposal was decent, and Quinna stood her ground as well, but they still could not defeat Jesse, who seemed to have the mass on his side.In the
The person watching them was not a bystander but the member from the supervisingdepartment that had “found the truth of the situation” yesterday.He had casually found a table with his lunch that afternoon before he ate while chatting with his tablemates.However, just as he had been happily eating away, he raised his head and coincidentally saw Quinna and Javier chatting away in private.This was a huge discovery! He had suspected Quinna was wearing Javier’s shirt yesterday, and now they were sitting at the same table and chatting away in private, which proved that whatever he thought was the truth.‘Oh no, oh no, oh no! I’ve ended up invading Miss Aurum’s privacy again! She’s not going to reprimand me for this, is she?’The guy was mumbling inside, wondering how he could be so unlucky to have run into Quinna’s private matters twice in a row.Coincidentally, Quinna had raised her head to look at him at that very moment, causing him to immediately pretend to have seen nothing an
