"Your colleague, are you not as close to us Chinese as yet?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.

Junko Kagawa nodded frankly, bit the straw, stared at Huang Chengcheng juice and was stunned, and suddenly asked, "Lu Sang, do you Chinese men respect women?"

Lu Zheng smiled, pointed to his forehead, and said, "Can you disrespect it? The evidence is still here."

Junko Kagawa smiled softly and then said solemnly: "I'm sorry, I was so panicked at that time."

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all over."

Junko Kagawa came out of the God of God and said, "I think I'm not suitable for work. Next year I will apply for transfer back to China and find a man with good conditions. I will quit and be his wife with peace of mind." After that, she was stunned and said, "I'm sorry, I'm too presumptuous." She thought about these thoughts for a long time, but she had never told anyone. Even if she called home, she had never revealed it to her parents, but for some reason, she suddenly told this strange man.

Maybe it’s because this Chinese man has nothing to do with him, right? Sometimes strangers are the best people to talk to.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I heard that you are quite capable. It turns out that you have encountered setbacks, so you gave up."

Junko Kagawa looked at Lu Zheng strangely and said, "Lu Sang, have you heard of me?" From the corner of her eyes, she glanced at a man walking over quickly.

Junko Kagawa hurriedly stood up and said to Lu Zheng: "I'm sorry, it's time for me to leave. It's very pleasant to chat with you."

The fat man who hurried over was Taro Yamamoto, the chief representative of the Uyama Representative Office of Mitsubishi Bank. Before he could get close, he shouted dissatisfiedly: "Representative Kagawa, you are too rude. Mr. Akutagawa is still waiting for you. How could you leave without saying goodbye?"

Junko Kagawa's face calmed down and said, "My head hurts a lot. I want to go back and rest. Please tell me sorry to Mr. Akutagawa."

"How can that be done? Mr. Akutagawa has been looking for you. Can you drink with others but ignore us?" Yamamoto was very dissatisfied and pointed at Lu Zheng. Then, he saw the face of Lu Zheng who was smiling at him, "Ah, Director Lu..."

Lu Zheng felt strange. He didn't know why Taro Yamamoto and Junko Kagawa had been talking in English, but he could hear clearly what the conversation between the two had.

At this time, Taro Yamamoto said to Junko Kagawa, "Please help me translate." He smiled at Lu Zheng and said Japanese.

Junko Kagawa looked at Lu Zheng in surprise, thinking that from Taro Yamamoto's words, she knew that Lu Zheng was a Chinese official.

Lu Zheng smiled and said to Taro Yamamoto: "Mr. Yamamoto, we all speak English, it is easy to communicate, I can understand."

Taro Yamamoto opened his mouth wide in surprise, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Lu Jun, you are the first Chinese official I met who can speak English."

Junko Kagawa was also a little surprised. The man in front of him was dressed very rustic. He originally thought that he should be one of the poor Chinese, but he seemed to like chatting with him.

But why did he suddenly become a Chinese government official? He suddenly speaks English? This is incredible.

Lu Zheng was slightly displeased when he listened to Taro Yamamoto's words. He could hear the faint disdain and arrogance of the Chinese people in Taro Yamamoto's words. Although he must be unintentional, he could truly reflect the inner thoughts of the Japanese representative.

But what Taro Yamamoto said was the truth. Lu Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Yes, our cadres used to learn Russian and speak Russian. I believe that with our opening to the Western world, more and more comrades who can speak English will be more and more. After all, English is one of the best languages ​​in the world. I hope that in the future, Westerners will have a craze to learn East Asian languages. By that day, our two countries in China and Japan will be considered successful, right?"

Taro Yamamoto felt a stern. He didn't look down on Chinese officials very much, and felt like uncivilized local buns.

But the young official in front of him is neither humble nor arrogant, soft and hard, which is really different from the Chinese-style officials he had contacted before.

With a smile on his face, Taro Yamamoto said, "Lu Jun is right, I think so. Lu Jun, there is a saying in China that it is better to meet him by chance than to invite him. I missed Lu Jun several times and I have always felt sorry for him. Today, Lu Jun can't refuse me anymore, right? Moreover, I can introduce two friends to Lu Jun, both of whom are experts in investment."

Lu Zheng knew that Taro Yamamoto and other Mitsubishi Bankers were very close to Qin Huailiang, the secretary-general of the municipal party committee. Ah Fei mentioned more than once that these Japanese and Qin Huailiang were spending in Paramount.

Qin Huailiang is a frequent visitor to Paramount, but he has never been to the Jade Dance Hall.

It seems that today, Qin Huailiang must be no longer there.

Lu Zheng thought to himself and said with a smile: "Okay, I missed the appointment the last time I had something to do, so I'm sorry, Mr. Yamamoto."

"Lu Jun is so polite!" Yamamoto Taro smiled heartily, made a gesture of invitation, and turned to Kagawa Junko with another face: "Kagawa Representative, you cannot be absent!"

Lu Zheng and Taro Yamamoto walked in front of him and Junko Kagawa hesitated for a moment, and then followed him.

...

When Lu Zheng entered the VIP No. 1 box, he felt strange in his heart. It was here that he beat Yang Chaoyang.

There were three or four people sitting in the private room. What Lu Zheng didn't expect was that there was a white Western man with a high nose, a bridge and a thin Japanese old man sitting in the center of the sofa.

Taro Yamamoto introduced to Lu Zheng, the middle-aged white Smith, an American, and the CEO of Oriental International Financial Services.

The thin Japanese old man sitting next to Smith is Kazuo Akutagawa, the director of the Asian Market Survey Division of the Overseas Investment Department of Mitsubishi Headquarters.

When Lu Zheng smiled and treated them in English, Kazuo Akutagawa said in surprise: "Your English is fluent and very good. Have you considered doing things in a big company?" The condescending meaning is obvious. He was not sure about the number of official positions in China for the first time. Seeing that this young man was in his early twenties and thought he was the lowest-level Chinese official, the original intention of his condescending words was actually to recruit talents. After all, Mitsubishi Investment needed a talented Chinese who were familiar with China's situation.

Taro Yamamoto hurriedly said a few words to Kazuo Akutagawa in Japanese, which seemed to be a description of Lu Zheng's identity. However, after Yamamoto interrupted himself, Kazuo Akutagawa's face showed a little displeasure.

As soon as Lu Zheng sat down, Junko Kagawa sat beside him, smiled at Kazuo Akutagawa and patted the sofa beside her and signaled her to return to the old seat to sit, and Kazuo Akutagawa's face turned even more ugly.

When Taro Yamamoto saw that Kazuo Akutagawa was embarrassed, a smug expression flashed.

In fact, for young and strong Mitsubishi cadres like Taro Yamamoto, deep down, they look down on Ikkawa Akutagawa and other senior middle- and low-level department managers who are about to retire. In their minds, Ikkawa Akutagawa has been with me for a lifetime and is just a director of the department, and is also a particularly unimportant supervisor of the classroom. The economic environment is good now, and if the economic environment is not good, people like Ikkawa Akutagawa will be the first to be hit. In the eyes of many ambitious young cadres, people like Ikkawa Akutagawa are garbage that has been eliminated by society.

This kind of situation where young cadres despise the elderly in the company is not only in Mitsubishi, but in the entire Japanese society. This is a cruel competition. It is precisely because of its cruelty that young employees dare not relax and have great pressure. No one wants to become garbage that companies can discard at any time in decades.

Lu Zheng was not interested in open and secret struggles between the Japanese, but chatted with Smith for a few words.

Oriental International Financial Services Company? That is the investment company. Lu Zheng is very familiar with this industry and wants to chat with him for a few words.

Smith said that Oriental Financial Company is registered in the British Virgin Islands. Lu Zheng smiled slightly. These tax havens are now becoming more and more popular among some financial companies.

Now, Oriental Finance is preparing to invest its business in Hong Kong and mainland China.

Lu Zheng now knows why these Japanese people talk in English. Judging from the appearance of Kazuo Akutagawa, he respects Smith very much and even has a little flattering meaning, as if he hopes to cooperate with Smith's investment company to explore the Asian market together.

Lu Zheng didn't know much about the organizational structure of Mitsubishi Bank, so he didn't know the embarrassment of Kazuo Akutagawa's identity and his eagerness to achieve results.

But Lu Zheng knew that Mitsubishi Bank relied on Mitsubishi Group and was almost a giant in the financial industry in Japan. However, Mitsubishi Bank has been struggling to develop overseas markets, so it later merged with Bank of Tokyo to leverage Oriental Bank's vast overseas business outlets.

Today's Mitsubishi Bank is normal to find some overseas investment financing partners, but it is not easy to be attracted by Mitsubishi Bank and make Kazuo Akutagawa humble.

Lu Zheng couldn't help chatting with Smith for a few more words. When chatting, Smith asked, and Lu Zheng admitted that he had been to the United States and the best private brain hospital in Los Angeles.

Just as he was having a happy chat with Smith, suddenly, with a "bang", Kazuo Akutagawa threw the cup angrily, and the beer cup was thrown on the coffee table by him, which made the cup and plate ring loudly.

But it turned out that although Junko Kagawa raised her glass to drink with her male colleagues as he asked, she just took a sip and said nothing, let alone toast Smith.

Seeing Smith's face unnatural when he heard the conversation here, Kazuo Akutagawa immediately became angry!

Sexual harassment is very serious in Japanese companies, especially since the Equal Employment Opportunities Act has not yet revised relevant provisions to pay special attention to sexual harassment. In some large companies, it seems natural for superior supervisors to harass female employees under subordinates and will hardly be condemned. Even if it is exposed, it is often the company that loses money and there are few cases of punishing the parties involved.

Ikao Akutagawa is a cadre who nods and bows whenever he sees people. He has lived a depressed life over the years. Now when he is overseas, he is all his subordinates, and he seems to have been suddenly liberated. He suddenly has some thoughts about the sexy and beautiful Junko Kagawa and Ikao Akutagawa. Of course, he does not want to possess her, but it is always a pleasant thing to talk, chat, and joke with this beautiful female representative who is younger than his daughter.

But he didn't expect that this beautiful school beauty of Tokai would rather sit next to the Chinese than please him, which made Kazuo Akutagawa extremely angry.

The Chinese are poor and ignorant, and Kagawa represents them, which really embarrasses the Yamato nation.

What's more serious is that Mr. Smith seemed very interested in Kagawa's representative just now. Kagawa's performance may offend Mr. Smith heavily.

The angry Kazuo Akutagawa scolded Kagawa Junko in Japanese. Kagawa Junko bit her red lips and did not speak. Although she was gentle, she was very strong at this moment.

Taro Yamamoto and others were just watching the fun with gloating.

Finally, Lu Zheng couldn't stand it anymore. Although it wasn't his business, he saw that the entire box was full of men and girls, but he was being scolded for no reason, so he couldn't stand it.

"Mr. Akutagawa, please forgive me for taking the liberty. Are you? Should you be calm?" Lu Zheng smiled and interrupted Kazuo Akutagawa's speech.

Junko Kagawa has been telling herself that she should be strong, be strong, not to shed tears, and not to let these men underestimate her.

Mr. Akutagawa's roar was as if he couldn't hear it, and he thought nothing had happened! Think about his mother's lullaby, think about his mother's beauty when she knew that she happily made sushi for herself after she was admitted to Dongda University, and she would go on strongly!

Gradually, Mr. Akutagawa's roar seemed to be unable to hear it. Huh? Who is it? The voice is so warm, is it for me to speak?

After joining the job, those indifferent colleagues never really helped them.

Junko Kagawa turned around and immediately saw the man's warm smile. Then, her heart seemed to melt in that warm smile, and her beautiful eyes suddenly burst into tears.

Although Kazuo Akutagawa looked down on the Chinese from the bottom of his heart, he felt that he was doing something wrong and didn't know why he suddenly got angry.

He bowed slightly to apologize: "Mr. Lu, I'm really sorry. Although it's an internal matter of our company organization, I'm sorry for disturbing you." After that, he pointed to the door of the box and said a few words to Kagawa Junko in a Japanese tone, his tone was very strict.

Lu Zheng thought that this must be told Junko Kagawa to get out and settle the score with her again.

Lu Zheng slowly stood up and said leisurely: "Mr. Akutagawa, you are so rude in front of the guests. You just said that this is the internal affairs of your corporate organization. Well, if your Mitsubishi Bank's corporate culture is bullying the weak, I think Ushan will not welcome such a company. I can also assure you that no matter how great Mitsubishi is in Japan, I can make your business in China difficult to move forward!"

Kazuo Akutagawa was stunned. This young Chinese man was so arrogant and ignorant. He was so ridiculous. He was a frog in the well!

Kazuo Akutagawa was about to ridicule this impolite and arrogant young Chinese man, but he didn't expect that Mr. Smith also stood up and applauded Lu Zheng lightly, then turned to Kazuo Akutagawa and said, "I support Mr. Lu Zheng unconditionally. I think we have no need and foundation for cooperation until you win Mr. Lu Zheng's respect. I'm sorry, I've lost my companion."

Ikao Akutagawa and others were completely stunned this time. What's going on? Why did Smith suddenly stand on the same front with the young Chinese?

Kazuo Akutagawa was even more dumbfounded. His original identity was completely unequal to Smith. This time, he only received some secret news from his friends to come to Ushan to visit Smith. However, he did not expect that Smith was easy-going and chatted with him very speculatively. This greatly increased his confidence and hoped that he could find a good overseas partner for Mitsubishi Bank under preliminary contact. As long as Smith agreed to contact senior officials in the overseas investment department, his status in the overseas investment department will inevitably be greatly improved.

Moreover, I scolded Kagawa representative myself, aren’t you just afraid that you will be dissatisfied?

But I didn't expect that I suddenly became elbows and armpits.

"Mr. Smith..." Kazuo Akutagawa wanted to keep him, but Smith had long followed Lu Zheng.

There was a room full of people left, staring at each other with big eyes.

Originally, Kazuo Akutagawa scolded Kagawa to please Smith, but who knew that this ended up causing such a result.

Only Junko Kagawa looked at them and showed a sarcastic smile on her lips.

After leaving the box, Smith took a few steps quickly, suddenly stuffed a letter to Lu Zheng, then smiled mysteriously and said, "I look forward to meeting with Mr. I will meet again." After that, he hurriedly left.

Lu Zheng began to be confused, then suddenly realized, and then started to laugh.

The question was solved, and I was still wondering, why did Smith ask for help for no reason? Even if he was eloquent, he could tell an American about his comrade-in-arms in just over ten minutes? Especially, this American is clearly a financial trading expert?

How could this be impossible? In the end, it turned out to be so.
