Chapter 725 Frankness
But he still sighed in his heart, which reminded him of his previous life. How similar it was to the Huo Ning in front of him. If he had not been reborn, he would probably be no different from this Huo Ning.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, the room is a bit messy. Please take a seat and I'll pour you some water!"
Huo Ning looked at Zhou Tian without saying anything, but looked around his home. His old face couldn't help but turn red, and he hurriedly picked up the smelly socks and clothes on the sofa.
He put them all into the drawer and then prepared to pour tea for Zhou Tian.
"Okay, Mr. Huo, stop being busy. I came here today to test you and see if you meet my requirements. If you do, we can sign the contract right away. But if not, I'm sorry!"
When Zhou Tian saw this scene, he no longer had the heart to drink tea and went straight to the point.
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, go ahead and ask!"
Hearing Zhou Tian's words, Huo Ning's expression changed slightly. He came to Zhou Tian with a hint of trepidation, feeling like a student facing a teacher.
"Mr. Huo, don't be nervous, let's sit down and talk!"
Seeing Huo Ning like this, Zhou Tian now doubted whether he had made a mistake in coming to Huo Ning. Is this timid middle-aged man in front of him really a broker of the Peninsula Exchange?
But now that he was here, he had no intention of getting up and leaving immediately. After all, seeing is believing, and he still wanted to see if Huo Ning could live up to his trust.
Is there such a thing as real talent and knowledge?
Next, Zhou Tian chatted with Huo Ning about the economic situation and development of the peninsula. As they talked, the uneasiness on Huo Ning's face gradually disappeared and he became confident.
Facing Zhou Tian, he immediately seemed to become a different person and began to talk eloquently. Although in Zhou Tian's eyes, what Huo Ning said was not new, it was still shocking.
In particular, when he made his analysis, he did not start from the local advantages of the peninsula, but compared the peninsula's economy with the economic development of the Bald Eagle and England, focusing on the world rather than sticking to one place.
He was able to draw conclusions about the impact of the world economy on the peninsula. He is a rare talent both in terms of vision and economic theory.
This made Zhou Tian suddenly change his view of Huo Ning, and he began to follow his thoughts and talk about his views and judgments on the future economy of the peninsula. Then, the more they talked, the more they felt that there was speculation.
Before they knew it, when the two stopped, Horning's stomach couldn't help but growl, which made him feel embarrassed.
"Okay, Mr. Huo, I agree with your opinion. You are a rare talent, and also a rare management talent. It's getting late now, why don't we go out for dinner first, and then sign the contract after dinner?"
Zhou Tian looked down at his watch and found that it was already twelve o'clock. No wonder Huo Ning was hungry. Even he felt his stomach protesting.
"Well, Mr. Zhou, why don't I just not go? You can just go and eat by yourself!"
Although Huo Ning was very grateful for Zhou Tian's recognition, after all, he was not Zhou Tian's subordinate yet, and he was not so shameless.
"Okay, don't be polite! Let's go!"
Zhou Tian ignored his refusal and pulled him out of the room, downstairs, and walked towards a nearby tea restaurant. When they arrived at the tea restaurant, he had never eaten Cantonese cuisine, so he didn't know much about the food in the tea restaurant.
He gave the right to order food to Huo Ning, who was no longer polite and ordered a few dishes. The two began to eat. After the meal, Zhou Tian first found a law firm and asked a lawyer to print out a contract.
Then he returned to Huo Ning's house again, divided the contract into two parts, and handed him one copy: "Okay, Mr. Huo, this is my employment contract for you. Of course, it can also be considered a partnership contract. You just need to sign your name!"
Huo Ning first looked at the contract in front of him with surprise, then without even looking at it, he picked up a pen and wrote his name on it.
"Why aren't you afraid that I will sell you out, Mr. Huo?"
Seeing Huo Ning signed without thinking, Zhou Tian couldn't help but look at him and asked with a smile.
"How is this possible, Mr. Zhou!"
Huo Ning said this excitedly at first, and then he smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Mr. Zhou. What can I, Huo Ning, do that is worth being deceived by others? Not only do I owe a loan shark 30,000 yuan, but if I can't pay it back by the end of this month, I'm afraid I'll die on the street!"
"I guess Mr. Zhou must have seen the paint outside when he came to my house. That was the masterpiece of those loan sharks!"
As he spoke, Huo Ning told Zhou Tian everything about his experience. In fact, it was just as he had thought at the beginning. Huo Ning was actually a scapegoat. The whole thing was done by his former boss, and behind his boss was the director of the exchange.
He was just the one who was pushed out to take the blame, but of course he was not the only one involved.
After losing their jobs, perhaps out of fear that these people would be used by hostile parties, the exchange suppressed them everywhere, which caused Huo Ning to have difficulty finding a job.
After two years of being unable to find a job, his savings had already run out. In desperation, he had to sell the house and let his wife and children move back to her parents' home. He and several colleagues who were fired chose to make a last-ditch effort.
They collected nearly 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, hoping to turn their fortunes around with it. However, the stocks that had been rising suddenly encountered a loan crisis. Faced with the bank's collection demands, they had no choice but to sell the stocks and repay the loan.
After paying off the bank loan, a few people were unwilling to give up and had to borrow usury. They didn't expect that this was a setup by the directors of the exchange. Not only did they not make any money, but they were also faced with the loan sharks' collection demands and became frightened birds.
At the end, Horning's tone was extremely bleak.
"In fact, if Mr. Zhou had been a few days later, he probably wouldn't have been able to see me!"
After hearing what Huo Ning said, Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic towards him, but he still smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, since Mr. Huo trusts me so much, then I will talk to Mr. Huo about the treatment issue!"
"I'm not actually from the Peninsula, so I won't be here for too long. Therefore, I will register a company with a capital of about three million. One hundred thousand of it can be used as the money for Mr. Huo to repay the loan shark. This is my bonus to Mr. Huo one year in advance. With the rest of the money, I hope Mr. Huo can develop according to my plan!"
