"Uncle has reached the age of retirement. It's time for uncle and aunt to enjoy life."
In the evening, Deshan called Gu Yu and told him about it.
"I just feel that dad is not happy and a little disappointed." Deshan hugged his knees and leaned against the cabinet, with worry in his words.
"You will definitely not get used to it. After working hard for so long, you suddenly have nothing to do. However, once you get used to it, let your uncles and aunts travel more and pick up the interests that you left behind when you were young. It will also be interesting. You I need to comfort uncle more."
"I know, I am their most caring little daughter."
Deshan is truly worthy of being a considerate little cotton-padded jacket. Last year, Yihua suffered from menopausal syndrome. Deshan always ran home, took his mother to eat delicious food, go shopping, do beauty salons and manicures, make her happy, and made Cheng Dongyi envious. .
Gu Yu was comforting on the phone. In the past two days, he had been in midtown Manhattan, New York, USA, on Wall Street in a practical sense, handling some company investment matters, and also met with some important investors, entrepreneurs, politicians and congressmen.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yu called his secretary to come in.
"Cancel all the arrangements for today and tomorrow, arrange for the plane to fly to Seoul now, and ask the driver to wait for me downstairs."
There is a 14-hour time difference between the United States and South Korea. It is around 11pm in Seoul and around 9am in New York.
In the car going to the airport, Gu Yu considered whether to call the president of Hanil Bank to express his relationship with Cheng Dongyi.
Emeritus retirement may sound nice, but in fact, Korean companies are trying to reduce costs and create maximum value for the company at the expense of personal interests, so as to make room for a cheap and easy-to-use young workforce.
It's okay for my uncle to retire and enjoy life. It's just that he should make up for some regrets.
"Contact President Zheng of Hanil Bank for me. I will board the plane in half an hour."
Gu Yu picked up the phone and dialed Li Chengyi, general manager of Yucheng Capital's Seoul branch.
He had already fallen asleep when the phone rang, because the personal call must have something important to do. As expected, it was the president. It was said that the president was in the United States and he was probably at work at this time.
Li Chengyi immediately contacted President Zheng, then asked the driver to prepare the car, and asked his wife to notify his assistant.
"Hey, President Zheng, I'm Li Chengyi. Our President Jiang has something urgent to ask you. Please contact him immediately."
"Ah? Is there something urgent, President Jiang? At this point..."
"The president is in the United States, but there must be something very urgent. I'm on my way to your home now. I don't have time. The president will board the plane soon."
After several phone calls, Li Chengyi finally contacted the president of Hanyi Bank. He had no time to talk nonsense and hung up after explaining the situation.
"Hello, President Jiang."
"Hello, President Zheng, I'm sorry to contact you at this time."
"Hey Yigu, President Jiang, don't worry, I don't know what's urgent."
"I just heard that Hanil Bank will have an honorary retirement ceremony tomorrow, and my uncle Sung Dong-il is also on the list."
"This... this must be a misunderstanding. Is it Section Chief Cheng Dongyi from the Supervision Department? Is he your uncle? I've never heard of him before.
Don't worry, there must be a mistake in the list. I will immediately ask the relevant person in charge and I will give you a satisfactory explanation.
Section Chief Cheng is serious and responsible in his work. To be honest, after his emeritus retirement, the bank will be short of experienced and capable employees like Section Chief Cheng. I will definitely arrange his duties properly. "
On the other end of the phone, President Zheng's hair stood on end. Why had he unknowingly offended the most popular emerging chaebol in South Korea?
Moreover, President Jiang across the street had no idea how many interest groups had been connected. This wouldn’t be my last day as president, and I wouldn’t be sued by the prosecutor tomorrow. President Zheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"President Zheng, I am not contacting you to pursue any responsibilities. My uncle has worked hard for thirty years. He should enjoy life. This is what I and my fiancée, oh, uncle Dongyi's daughter, hope for." .”
"There is really no news at all before. Congratulations to you. I believe that the daughter of the section chief and you must be both talented and beautiful. I wonder what you need me to do? Don't worry, I will definitely do it!"
President Zheng was holding on to his energy at this moment, but he was actually very panicked. It turned out that he was not only his uncle, but also his father-in-law. If this was not handled well, it would definitely be over in the future.
"He has worked hard for Hanil Bank for thirty years. I think Hanil Bank must have carefully prepared a retirement ceremony for him, right?"
President Zheng nodded and hung up the phone, calmed down, and slapped himself hard, startling his wife next to him.
Why didn't I find out? I almost ruined my career.
Quickly call your subordinates to arrange the retirement ceremony for tomorrow.
At this time, Li Chengyi also rushed to President Zheng's home. Seoul is so big and belongs to the same financial circle. He has had many dealings with him before.
"President Zheng, what's going on? Why does the president want to see you at this time?"
President Zheng asked the housekeeper to invite people to the living room on the first floor. At this moment, his face was still a little pale.
"Brother Li, you came just in time, you must help me."
President Zheng seemed to have seen a savior. He took Li Chengyi's hand and quickly told him the situation.
Li Chengyi rolled his eyes after hearing this, the president's fiancée? Cheng Dongyi’s daughter?
How could they, as subordinates, not inquire about the leader's preferences? Li Chengyi immediately started brainstorming whether it could be Section Chief Cheng of the company's administrative and human resources department. At that time, she was recruited by the president himself. Some people said that they had seen two people riding together. a car.
"Brother Li? Manager Li?" President Zheng shouted anxiously.
"Oh, I was thinking about something just now. Don't worry too much, President Zheng. Since the president said he won't be held accountable, it should be fine. However, President Zheng still needs to find the person responsible for this matter."
"Of course, of course, I've thought about it."
"Also, Section Chief Cheng's retirement ceremony must be held well. When is the ceremony?"
"At 9 o'clock in the morning, President Jiang just said to board the plane. Do you want to come back for the ceremony?"
"There is not enough time, and since President Jiang is participating in the ceremony, it is impossible to make arrangements without notifying him in advance."
"Then do you want me to postpone the time?"
"No, President Zheng, this list of honorary retirees was notified only yesterday, right?"
"Yes."
"Then I guess the president just got the news. He called you just to hope that Section Chief Cheng won't have any regrets, so everything must be arranged in advance. The ceremony doesn't need to be grand, but it should be touching, profound, and meaningful. Ke Xun, President Zheng, do you understand?"
President Zheng thought carefully for a while, suddenly realized, and kept thanking Li Chengyi.
"What a fool. How could such a person sit in the position of governor if he didn't have a relationship with the Minister of Finance."
Li Chengyi sat in the back seat of the car, closing his eyes and concentrating, thinking about what happened just now. The car was driving towards the company.
"Wait until you go to the company and find the information of Miss Cheng Deshan from the Human Resources and Administration Department." Li Chengyi ordered the assistant sitting in the passenger seat.
When Li Chengyi got Cheng Deshan's employment information, he immediately looked through it.
In Phoenix Hall Alley, Shuangmendong, Li Chengyi stared at the address for a while.
It seemed like she was the one. Fortunately, I knew beforehand that she had a special relationship with the president. She was always treated with courtesy and she was promoted to section chief just half a year after becoming a full-time employee.
I didn't expect it to be the president's wife. How should I behave at the section chief's retirement ceremony tomorrow? Don't make it too obvious, otherwise it will go against the president's wishes.
But doing nothing would definitely not work. The president’s wife would not be able to curry favor with her. This would test her ability to flatter someone.
