Chapter 602: Beating a Dog in the Water

The next morning, Zhou Andong arranged for someone to send Wah-zai and the others to the airport, and then drove back to Jiangzhou directly.

However, he left the Santana and Chen Zhaojiang and Wang Wentian behind.

And at this time, Coca-Cola China Headquarters, conference room on the 15th floor of the Kaiyuan Building.

Zhao Hongxing looked at the newspaper, his hands trembling with anger. He looked at Kyle and asked: "Is there any reply from headquarters?"

Kyle shook his head: "No!"

Zhao Hongxing slapped the newspaper heavily on the table with a "pop."

"Look, you all look. Jianlibao and Pepsi have both taken action. Jianlibao donated two million RMB to Project Hope, and Pepsi donated 200,000 USD to Project Hope and 50,000 USD in school supplies. And our boss is still holding meetings to study."

Zhao Hongxing roared: "Damn capitalists, what exactly are they studying? If there is no reaction, our old rival Pepsi will definitely not let go of this opportunity."

Not only Kyle, but even the other foreigners had expressions of helplessness.

Jiang Yuping rubbed her temples, looking haggard: "What's the use of getting angry? Now we can only increase promotional efforts within our authority and wait for headquarters' decision."

"Damn it." Zhao Hongxing cursed fiercely. If it weren't for that one-cent commission, I wouldn't serve these idiots.

Kaiyuan Building, 17th floor, Pepsi China Headquarters.

The foreign girl with two big balls was sitting by the window in the meeting room, holding a glass of red wine, looking at the scenery outside.

"Sara!"

A woman who was looking at something at the conference table turned back and asked: "What's the matter?"

The foreign girl shook the wine glass in her hand: "Coca-Cola has no action?"

"Right!" Sara nodded.

The foreign girl smiled and took a small sip of red wine, "There is a saying in China called 'beating a dog in the water.' Should we do something?"

Sara was stunned: "Do something?"

The foreign girl narrowed her eyes slightly: "Of course, we have contributed some manpower to Chinese charity, but Coca-Cola hasn't. Should we remind our Chinese media friends about this stingy behavior?"

Sara laughed: "I think we should remind our Chinese media friends."

The foreign girl nodded: "Go!"

Sara got up and left quickly.

When Zhou Andong woke up, it was already past 9:00. After washing up, he knocked on Gu Bing's door across the hall.

"Who is it!" Gu Bing opened the door drowsily, seeing it was Zhou Andong, "Why knock on the door so early."

Zhou Andong said: "It's almost 10:00, and you call it early. Hurry up, we have a meeting at 10:30."

When they got home last night, it was almost 12:00, and especially after sitting in a car for a day, even a sedan was exhausting.

Soon, Gu Bing got dressed and came out. They went downstairs and knocked on Zhang Xuan's room.

Last night, Wu Huilin stayed in Zhang Xuan's room. There was no answer, so they should have gone to the factory office.

The two didn't even eat breakfast and came to the factory office, finding Wu Huilin in Zhang Xuan's office, and the two were chatting about something.

"Chairman!" Zhang Xuan greeted.

Zhou Andong said: "Go to my office and sit for a while."

"Okay!" Zhang Xuan agreed and followed Wu Huilin to Zhou Andong's office.

Zhou Andong poured them tea: "Sit!"

Several people sat down. Zhou Andong said to Gu Bing: "After the meeting, go to the construction site and take a look. In another month or so, the equipment for the brewery should arrive."

Gu Bing nodded: "The people recruited should have no problem, right."

Zhou Andong said: "They have been training at the winery for more than two months. There will be no problem; they can go on duty at any time."

Then, Zhou Andong looked at Wu Huilin again, "After the meeting, your first task is to split off the Yuzhou Electronic Research Institute, with Qiu Dongfang holding 100% of the shares."

Wu Huilin asked: "What does the Yuzhou Electronic Research Institute do?"

Zhou Andong said: "You'll know when the time comes. And more importantly, you must grasp it personally—the confidentiality measures of the research institute must reach the highest international level. It doesn't matter how much money it costs."

"Okay!" Wu Huilin also became serious.

Several people chatted for a while, and seeing that the time was almost up, they went to the conference room together.

At this time, cadres at the middle level and above of the group had all arrived. Seeing Zhou Andong coming, they clapped their hands.

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "It seems that everyone really missed me, welcoming me so enthusiastically."

"Chairman, we missed you to death."

Someone shouted, causing everyone to laugh loudly.

Zhou Andong shook his head helplessly: "I'll introduce everyone. Zhang Xuan, my assistant. And this one, Ms. Wu Huilin, everyone shouldn't be unfamiliar. She serves as the President's Assistant. When Jian Qiu is not here, she exercises the right of arbitration."

The meeting lasted for more than two hours. After it was over, Zhou Andong went to leave with Yao Jun.

The two found a small shop, ordered a few bottles of beer, and ordered a few small dishes to drink.

Zhou Andong asked: "Have you thought about what gift to send to Teacher Cao?"

Yao Jun shook his head: "No!"

Zhou Andong also had a troubled face, holding the beer bottle and drinking.

"Damn it, this is the first time I've felt that sending gifts is so difficult."

Yao Jun chuckled: "If you ask me, just send Teacher Cao a few cases of blue-and-white porcelain and iced black tea, and then add some gift money."

Zhou Andong pondered for a moment: "That's fine, but don't send blue-and-white porcelain; send Yugong liquor."

"That doesn't matter." Yao Jun grabbed a peanut and threw it into his mouth, "Liquor and iced black tea are both from our own factory; Teacher Cao definitely won't refuse."

Zhou Andong nodded and asked: "How is the wedding preparation going?"

Yao Jun said: "Everything is done, just waiting for you to decorate the wedding venue."

Zhou Andong asked: "Do you really not need me to host your wedding?"

Yao Jun shuddered, and his head shook like a rattle: "No need, I've already found a host."

Zhou Andong looked regretful: "Let me tell you, as a wedding host, I am absolutely professional. If you don't use me, it's definitely your loss."

Yao Jun said very vigilantly: "This loss is invisible, but if I let you be my wedding host, the loss is definitely visible."

Zhou Andong sighed: "Da Jun, you've changed. You've really changed, changed to the point where I don't recognize you."

Yao Jun rolled his eyes: "The more you are like this, the more I feel you have no good intentions."

Zhou Andong blinked his eyes, looking sad: "Brothers for a lifetime, is that how you see me? When we were young, every time you were bullied, wasn't it me who stood up for you? Every time you didn't do your homework, wasn't it me who accompanied you?

Every time we were punished to stand by Teacher Cao, wasn't it me standing by your side? Now you are getting married, I can't walk into the hall of marriage with you, but as a host, I can still stand by your side like when we were young. Why don't you understand me?" ===== CHAPTER 603 =====
