Chapter 470 Experience
Chapter 470 Experience
He still remembered how embarrassed he felt when he was questioned by Jonathan but couldn't retort. Jacob was inexperienced in that time, while Jonathan had been working in the company for two years earlier than him.
From then on, Jacob realized that how to hold a meeting was also an art. He needed to learn how to stop people from talking and get their approval in a meeting. Jacob had been thinking about this question all the time. In fact, many people didn't like the CEO in their company.
Especially those who could never reach this position had prejudice in their hearts. No one would be jealous of someone worse than him. They would always be jealous of someone better than themselves.
Therefore, there were many people who wanted to be the CEO, but there was only one person who could sit on that position. From the first day Jacob became the CEO, he knew that there was no place meant to be yours.
You have to fight for what you want, instead of blaming and jealous of someone else. So from then on, Jacob decided to change himself. He learned to observe what people was doing and saying, and the manner of dealing with people.
Experience was the best teacher, now Jacob didn't regret being so careful and so hungry for learning before. After all, many people thought that they could have nothing to worry about when they became a CEO.
Jonathan was a good example. Even if he had the Shi Group, so what? Jacob was confident that he would take back what belonged to him sooner or later, and those who took things that didn't belong to him would not have a good end.
After the meeting, Jacob asked Cindy to take care of the company's affair and let him know no matter what happened. Then Jacob went out.
He was going to meet a client today, but he didn't expect he would be trapped by this meeting. Fortunately, Jacob had agreed to meet with the client in the afternoon. He checked at the time and found that it was not too late.
Jacob straightened his tie. It was so hot outside, but he still had to wear a suit. After all, he represented the company's public image now. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Speaking of the image, Jacob recalled that he used to say that Sara was the image of the Shi clan, well, she still was right now.
But instead, he felt that he was not a member of the Shi clan anymore. His mind was in a mess. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he felt that his mind was chaotic.
Today was so hot and dry. After Jacob fired the driver, he drove himself. Now was a critical period, and Jacob didn't want these trifles to get in the way.
So he just kept everything simple. When Jacob got out of the car, he looked around and made sure that there was no one else.
Jacob's leather shoes were faintly glowing in the reflection of the sunlight, and he could feel the heat wave wafted to him. Jacob reached out to lose his tie a bit.
He looked down and checked at the Rolex on his wrist. Fortunately, it was still early.
Jacob then took out another box from the car. He was determined to win today's negotiation. As for what was in the box, Jacob didn't tell anyone.
Even from the moment Jacob got the box, he only took a look at it. Now, he was going to take a second look to make sure of it.
The box was so small that it could just fit in Jacob's palm. Jacob's eyes lit up. Such a precious thing was not easy to be found in this world nowadays.
Most of the time, Jacob had to use a tacky way when he wanted to have a negotiation. After all, many people couldn't be persuaded easily, but when you have what they want, it would be a different story.
Jacob closed the box with relief. After confirming that a legendary luminous pearl was sitting inside the box, he quickly found a pocket and put the box in.
His destination was a high-end club. Every time Jacob talked about business with his partners, he would find such a quiet place to have a meeting. After all, most of the time they talked about business when they were having dinner.
However, the environment in the restaurant was not satisfying. People spat, talked out loud and made too much noise. So the club was important when it came to business negotiations, but ordinary people might not be able to afford the price.
This society would only function effectively if people participate in all walks of life. If everyone favored a certain industry, the society would not be able to develop.
Jacob quickly swept away his random thoughts in his mind and made sure his purpose of coming here today. The reason why he came here today was to sign an agreement with the other party, and also to ask the other party to provide him with circulating fund.
Of course, both of these were not an easy task. Jacob took a deep breath at the thought of it.
When he entered the room, he found that the other party hadn't come yet. This was a good thing, he thought. His earlier arrival could show his concern for this negotiation and his respect for the other party.
Jacob looked around. The color of the room was neither warm nor cold. Its decoration style was unique. The wooden floor, tables and chairs in this room looked expensive.
Jacob carefully studied the carving on the table pillar, and then he heard the footsteps approaching. Finally, the door was pushed open. A young waiter came in, followed by a middle-aged man who was in a large suit with a bulge belly.
Jacob stood up with a sincere smile, "I've been expecting you, Mr. Wyatt."
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, Mr. Jacob. You are so punctual." Wyatt then sat down. It was not appropriate for them to have small talk, because they were not familiar with each other at all.
He came here today because of Shawn's recommendation. Jacob felt lucky that wherever he went, he could meet the right person who was willing to give him a hand.
Maybe Shawn was another right person in his life. Since he cooperated with Shawn, Shawn would recommend any potential partner to Jacob, including this Mr. Wyatt.
This was also the reason that Jacob trusted Shawn very much. For Jacob, Shawn was more like a good friend who deserved his trust.
However, Jacob also had to use his personal charisma to win this partner recommended by Shawn. So Jacob made great efforts to investigate Wyatt's preferences. He knew what Wyatt liked and what he didn't like.
Therefore, Jacob was well-prepared to come here today. Although many people were disdained to such method, it was still a life experience Jacob had gained over these years.
Jacob said politely, "Mr. Wyatt, it's my honor to meet you here today."
