The computer screen on the desk had already turned into a screensaver. Marcus, who had been in a daze, slowly returned to his senses, tapped the mouse, and continued to look at the report above, but he was completely distracted.
He was rarely distracted at work, but he received a phone call from William half an hour ago. He said he and Qin Sitong had arrived in Paris and then said what Marcus already did not remember, wait until he looked back to the phone, which had been hung up, and then he was dazed for half an hour.
Light breath. After making up his mind about Marcus or William's mobile phone number, he cannot afford to let go of people since the other party has been married and then entangled, which is also meaningless. As for friends and so on, in his opinion, there is no need.
The internal phone rang at the right time. Marcus picked it up, and his female secretary Linda's sweet voice came through: 'President, the general manager of Lyson Group would like to meet with you to talk about the company's products in the mainland region agency rights.'
'Isn't the sales department responsible for this?' Marcus interrupted. Why do you need me to come out? I remembered that it has been decided to renew the contract with the company that has cooperated with us before, and the other ones that come to us directly let the sales department push them away, so why are you suddenly saying that Lysol wants to talk to us about this?'
The female secretary said, 'The sales department has already rejected them three times. This time, the general manager of the other party called directly. He said that he is an old friend of yours, and he wants you to give a face to....'
Marcus was speechless. Ethan is the general manager of Lysol Group in mainland China. What kind of old friend does he count on? He has the face to say such words.
'Directly reject it, in the future; this kind of person who especially seeks to climb the relationship doesn't need to take care of it.' After Marcus finished his explanation, he didn't wait for the other party to say anything else and hung up the phone.
Linda's female secretary, holding the telephone receiver, is helpless. The president would not initially use such a direct and nonchalant manner, even if he rejected people, which is why Lyson's general manager is offended by him.
******
In a dimly lit high-class Western restaurant, the man in the corner elegantly cuts the steak, slowly savoring the food and looking very leisurely.
The only thing that is out of place with the romantic atmosphere here is that he is alone, while all around are pairs of lovers. Valentine's Day is such a day that a person in a Western restaurant is too bleak, not to mention that it is still a handsome call to shame, full of the noble temperament of the man, even if he seems to be on his sympathetic situation appears to be not caring.
Until another man came and sat across from him without his permission.
The long fingers slicing the foie gras paused, and Marcus raised his eyes to the smiling man before him, frowning slightly but not speaking.
Instead, the other party spoke first:'Originally heard people say that Marcus of LK came to this kind of place to dine alone or pick this kind of Day, but I still don't believe it. Come to take a chance, I didn't think you were here, or is... it that you intentionally come to see other people in pairs and then reminisce about their love that ended without any problems?'
Ethan.
Only this man could say something so annoying, especially to Marcus.
'Something wrong?' Marcus spoke coldly, having no intention of knowing how Ethan knew he was dining here. He did not want to explain that he settled for food and drink here every night, not paying any attention to what Day it was.
Ethan smiled, 'Tried to get an appointment with Marcus through your secretary in the morning, Marcus didn't give a d*mn so he had to find out for himself.'
Sure enough, Marcus said, 'I thought, my secretary had already told you enough, LK's yacht agency has been given to another company, so...'
'No contract has been signed yet has it?' Ethan smiled, 'Then why can't we give Lyson a chance?'
LK is a world-renowned yacht manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, England. Behind the Coote family is the United Kingdom-ranked noble family. Marcus is from the Coote family and is president of LK's Asia-Pacific region. His grandfather is a duke, and he has a viscount knighthood. Marcus's passport nationality is the United Kingdom, although he is only a quarter of British blood.
And Lysol Group is the world's top three luxury goods agents, businesses from real estate, hotels, luxury cars, luxury yachts to watches, clothing, wine. Nothing is involved. Headquartered in New York, the founder of the Ethan family immigrated to the United States a hundred years ago. Ethan's grandfather, Ethan's high grandfather in mainland China, has been Lysol in recent years; strategic center Ethan is Lysol's general manager of the mainland region.
He is looking for Marcus to talk about business, although Marcus is not interested in cooperating with him at all.
Marcus didn't want to take care of him, but Ethan talked to himself and had already given the plan to the manager of your sales department. If you're going to see it, I can transfer a copy of it to you now. Lysol is a big international company; whether it's a sales platform or a source of customers, it's one of the best. Moreover, we have enough money to invest, and our ability to develop the market is absolutely the best in the industry; we are the best in the industry and we are the best in the industry. Is the industry's premier, and can our business philosophy and LK achieve high unity? I believe we can achieve cooperation operation. The price is also reasonable to discuss, as long as the...'
Marcus completely put down the cutlery in his hand. There is such a person who keeps nagging himself about public affairs in front of him while he is eating; his appetite, which was still very good just now, was completely emptied. Still, he is very impressed by Ethan's thick skin. Just now, once he comes to take private matters to himself to open the ridicule of the person, where does the confidence come from that he will allow him to listen to his incessant chatter before choosing to cooperate with him? I'm not sure if I will be able to do that.
'Starry has been LK's partner in mainland China, although they do not have Lyson in the international fame, the local enterprises, in mainland China's market share than the Lyson high, you put Lyson said a thousand good, but ignored the most essential question, you said you can invest a lot of money to do market development, then wait until you in the mainland area of the market development out, then talk with LK's market, and then the market will be the most important thing. Then come back to talk acooperationoperation with LK.'
Marcus choked back. Ethan helplessly said, 'Marcus, the clear-eyed people can see that Lysol's market share in the mainland region exceeds that of Starry. It's just a matter of time. You have to use the developmental perspective to look at the problem.'
However, Marcus did not think so:'LK's market strategy in the mainland is to seek stability; we work very happily with Starlite; there is no need to accompany Lysol to go through a lot of trouble.'
After speaking, he didn't allow Ethan to say anything else and went to the washroom.
As cold water washed over his hands, Marcus lowered his eyes before the washbasin, looking absent-minded. He was a little unhappy. A good meal had been ruined, and he would have to find another shop to fill his stomach.
Followed by Ethan holding his arm half leaning against the door, looking at the front. Marcus, slightly side down, stained with water droplets of finely broken bangs blocked his forehead but brought a few points of indescribable provocative, the side profile so the look can be considered perfect, the line of sight downward, fell on his wrapped in an haute couture suit waist arc, inadvertently recalled that Day to see Marcus's nude/body.... No matter in which way, Marcus is considered to be the best among men.
After washing his hands, Marcus stood up straight and suddenly appeared in his side of the person, shocked backward, so he directly sat down on the washbasin. Ethan smiled and leaned over, hands propped up to his body on both sides, a moment not instantly staring into his eyes, said:'In fact, before I talked to your company's sales manager a few times, he has almost been my Said moved, just two days ago but suddenly changed his attitude, how to say are not willing to agree to cooperate with us, but also implied that it is the meaning of the upper head... is your meaning. Two days ago, that is, after we went to attend William's wedding and came back?'
Marcus pursed his lips. Ethan had almost ringed his entire body and didn't dare act rashly. He looked at Ethan coldly in front of him but didn't answer.
Ethan laughed and stuck some more in front of him, so close that his breath was almost intertwined with his own:'Marcus, could it be that you're so upset about what happened on that Day that you're holding a personal grudge? I always thought you weren't that private or public?'
Are you holding a grudge over the other Day? Well, Marcus admitted that he did not feel good in his heart. Ethan's b*st*rd tore him apart. His lower body was bleeding, and he did not have the face to go to the hospital. He could only buy his ointment and rub it on himself, and now that place was still vaguely painful. If he did not mind it at all, that would be a ghost; he told the sales department to reject Lyson firmly because he did not want to have anything to do with him in the future, but obviously, Ethan did not have this self-consciousness. He did not even care about it. But Ethan doesn't have this self-consciousness and won't give up.
'Ethan, is this the attitude of a young man who is asking for something?' Marcus coldly replied to him, 'You've approached LK so many times and were rejected but you're still not dead set on this project, it must be because it can bring you a lot of benefits, right? If you want to cooperate with LK, put your posture straight.'
Ethan gazed at Marcus'eyes. This was the first time he had looked at him so closely and realized that Marcus was worthy of being a mixed race with a quarter of European ancestry. Not only was the outline of his face more profound and more handsome than that of a typical yellow person, but his pupil color was also a deep blue as bright as a gemstone.... It was very seductive, and the thin lips with which he constantly spat out sharp. The thin lips of the words are even more s*xy to death, not to mention the character, at least this pair of looks, is very much to his Ethan young master's appetite.
Of course, he didn't dare be reckless at this time. He loosened his grip on Marcus, stepped back, and asked him, 'Are you willing to give Raisin a chance?'
Marcus secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up straight, and said perfunctorily, 'Whether to renew the contract with Starry Rising or to look for another partner, we haven't made a final decision yet, and it's not like Lyson doesn't have a chance.'
After he finished his words, he staggered past Ethan and walked straight away.
Ethan smiled, and for the first time, he felt that Marcus, this person, was still somewhat enjoyable.
