Capítulo 33: Javier's Strategy
Assistant Hu sighed. "President, it will be the fifth time that you are cancelling the appointment with Mr. Henson. It is a meal that you promised to him. If you cancel again this time, Mr. Henson will be really disappointed."
Alliana continued walking, not minding the appointment with Mr. Henson even one bit.
"So? If he is disappointed then he should just leave. That will be the best."
Assistant Hu: "..."
Who do you think will suffer then?!
That man would visit the company and look for his boss. As her assistant, Assistant Hu would be the one to face the man's anger. He had to apologize several times and coax those men going after his boss.
He, a single straight man, had to coax men! Truly, he was living a pathetic life.
Assistant Hu pushed forward his glasses. "But President..."
"Just trust me and cancel the appointment. The deal with Mr. Tan is way more important than placating the hospital guy."
"But President--"
"If the man comes here himself and you can't handle him, just let Secretary Jane meddle. She is a lot more capable in handling guys like him."
Assistant Hu's mouth twitched.
Boss, that cunning Secretary Jane was always missing when an angry man visited the office!
That woman would only appear if it was a handsome, gentle, and rich guy.
"President--"
"Just give him some flowers and tell him that I am busy at the moment. You can just fart some words, and give him some compensation."
"President! Can you just let me talk for a bit?"
Alliana: "..."
She looked at her assistant with a discerning look. Her eyes were saying, 'How dare you shout at me?'
Assistant Hu pushed his glasses back. Sweat started to form on his temples.
"P-president, I apologize for raising my voice. But Mr. Henson is not only a Vice Chairman of the KL Hospital. He is also one of the investors of the K Project."
"So?"
"So we must maintain a good relationship with him. If the K Project becomes successful, his worth would rise by a large margin. His shareholding value would increase as well. He might take over the chairman position of the KL Hospital. Our transactions with the hospital will become a lot smoother with him around."
Alliana crossed her arm. She asked expressionlessly. "Has the K Project become successful yet?"
"Not yet, but in the future--"
"How far in the future?"
"It might take a couple of years--"
"A couple of years is enough to make my billion-dollar project with Mr. Tan generate more profit than our minor deal with the KL Hospital."
Assistant Hu: "..."
"I ask again, is that Mr. Henson promised to become the chairman?"
"N-not yet--"
Alliana crossed her arms. "How long is your 'not yet'? A year? Ten years? When he is in his fifties? We will have already left him in the dust right then. So Assistant Hu, whom should I invest in more?"
Assistant Hu: I just wanted to tell you, boss, to not give a promise you cannot keep! You're pointlessly offending people that way!
Why was she asking which one to choose? She can choose both of them and have a dinner or lunch with them on different dates! It was not like she would be dating them, it was all business!
However, Assistant Hu was still scared of this witch-like female CEO. Thus, he could only bow. "We should invest in Mr. Tan."
"Right." Alliana nodded with a smile. She finally entered her office.
The truth was, she just did want to meet that hospital guy. He reeked of the disinfectant smell of the hospital and he chattered way too much.
....
In the Tan Headquarters, chairman's office.
Assistant Yuan received an email from the SanJin Group.
They had just visited the SanJin company a few days ago for a further discussion on the prospective collaboration with the billion-dollar project. However, his boss, who treated time as the most precious, got pissed off by the company's lackluster attitude towards them.
Thus, their boss left without meeting Ms. Chu.
Assistant Yuan stood up from his desk and approached his boss' desk.
"Vice Chairman, the president of the San Jin Group is inviting you for a meal."
Javier did not look up from what he was doing. "Turn it down."
Assistant Yuan did not leave. "The San Jin company's billion-dollar project has immense potential. It is a project we can't afford to let go. Are you planning on handing such a beneficial project to others?"
Javier put down the file in his hands. His light brown eyes stared seriously at Assistant Yuan.
Assistant Yuan's back turned cold. When his boss stared at him like this, he felt like he was offending a king. Truly, his boss had an overwhelming presence.
The man on the chairman's desk spoke. "As you said, this billion-dollar project has immense potential and can bring us huge profits consistently. However, no matter how good the project is, if our partnership with SanJin company has no sincerity, do you think we can bring a fifty-fifty agreement to the table?"
