Unlike the last time he came to Harvard, Li Mu was obviously much more low-key this time. Even when he got off the bus, faced with the cheers and cheers of countless Harvard students, Li Mu did not stop for much. He just waved to everyone and then waited with Lawrence. Everyone entered the main office building together.
In the largest conference room in the main office building, Dong Ai and six 3321 employees who came from China have been waiting here for a long time.
Knowing that Li Mu was coming, and that he would see her as soon as he came, Dong Ai was extremely excited. She had never been so eager to see Li Mu as she is now. 3321 had made a lot of mistakes in the process of cooperating with Harvard, and now it seems that it is fast. It's beyond Dong Ai's control.
Li Mu and his assistant Li Ziwei walked among eight or nine Harvard senior managers. One of the female senior managers walked quickly at the front and led everyone to the door of the conference room. She pushed the door open with her own hands and made a gesture to Li Mu. please gesture.
Seeing Li Mu walking to the door of the conference room, Dong Ai hurriedly stood up from the chair in the conference room and said excitedly but nervously: "Mr. Li, you are here."
"Hello, Mr. Li." The other 3321 employees also stood up and said hello politely.
Li Mu nodded slightly to everyone and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard during this period. The 3321 US station is the first battle for 3321. It is of great significance to the future internationalization of 3321. Everyone still needs to pay more attention."
Dong Ai pursed his lips, smiled slightly reluctantly, and said, "Mr. Li, are you here to inspect the work this time?"
"Not really." Li Mu smiled and said, "I just happened to be in the United States to do some business, so I stopped by to see you."
With that, Li Mu turned around, pointed at Dong Ai, and said in English to Lawrence behind him: "Principal Lawrence, Dong Ai is the top person in charge of 3321. I sent her to the United States, which shows that we attach great importance to the 3321 American station. As for Dong Ai's work in the United States, I have to ask you to cooperate and help."
Lawrence smiled hurriedly and said: "This is what we should do. If Miss Dong has any needs, she can directly ask me. I will definitely cooperate with you."
Li Mu then said to Dong Ai in Chinese: "Look, Principal Lawrence is so helpful. If you need help in the future, you can go to him directly for help."
Dong Ai smiled awkwardly and said to himself: "It's useless to look for him, he will just look at you."
Li Mu noticed something was wrong with Dong Ai's expression and tone, and asked with a slight frown: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Dong Ai looked at Lawrence and other Harvard leaders, and said hesitantly: "I will report to you privately when I have time."
Seeing Dong Ai's appearance, Li Mu frowned even more tightly.
At this time, Lawrence realized something was wrong, quietly pulled Xie Huairu to him, and whispered in his ear: "What is Dong Ai talking to Li Mu?"
Xie Huairu looked careless and said hahaha: "I didn't listen too carefully. They were probably just chatting."
Lawrence nodded doubtfully, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Li, let Miss Dong tell you about the current project progress of the 3321 American station. It seems that the website has started testing two days ago. It is up to Miss Dong to introduce the details. .”
Li Mu noticed something strange about Dong Ai and guessed that Dong Ai's work at Harvard might not be so smooth. Looking at her hesitant look, it seemed that she might have suffered a lot of grievances at Harvard.
So, Li Mu said to Lawrence seriously: "Wait a moment, I want to have a private chat with Dong Ai, please arrange a venue for us."
Lawrence's expression suddenly became a little nervous. Logically speaking, he was also a person who had seen strong winds and waves. Facing Li Mu, he shouldn't have such a nervous mentality. But when he thought about the importance of the 3321 American station, and then thought about the fact that there was a famous person buried in it. He had no idea about the time bomb called James Keane.
James Keane was extremely possessive of 3321. For this reason, he and Dong Ai often had disputes over specific work. Dong Ai came to him many times to express his extreme dissatisfaction with James Keane as his counterpart, and many times She asked herself to change the docking person, but she kept using various excuses to frustrate her, and James Keane still stayed in the 3321 US team to give advice.
Lawrence is also particularly disgusted with James Keane, but he knows James Keane and the entire Keane family very well. James Keane is the most important descendant of this generation of the Keane family. In order to make him "justified" The Keene family spent a lot of effort to become the president of the Harvard Student Union and become Harvard's most impeccable young talent.
The reason why he did so much work for James Keane at Harvard is because Harvard itself is the cradle of American politicians. James Keane was able to become the president of the Harvard Student Union when he was a student, which will help him enter the political arena in the future. It is an excellent capital and it is easy to win over allies in the political arena.
Now, James Keane and the entire Keane family are interested in 3321 and attach great importance to it. Even if Lawrence is dissatisfied with James Keane, he will never dare to kick him out of this project. , not only cannot he be kicked out, but he must do everything possible to ensure that he is not kicked out by the founding team of 3321.
Dong Ai had actually wanted to drive away James Keane for a long time, but due to Lawrence's influence, he had been unable to do so. The most fundamental reason for this was that the top command authority of the 3321 American station was not clearly assigned.
Although Lawrence claims to be the general person in charge of 3321 US station, this statement is only for the Harvard team of 3321 American station. Dong Ai is the general person in charge of China 3321. Even if Lawrence cannot be controlled, it is impossible for him to control it.
What Li Mu and Lawrence were talking about at the beginning was just the business of 3321 cooperating with Harvard to build the 3321 US station. Li Mu and Lawrence had a good chat at the beginning, but Li Mu did not consider that such problems would arise in the cooperation, so it was not clear who was in charge. The actual top person in charge of the 3321 US station, that is to say, when there are no differences in cooperation, everyone works together according to the common goal, regardless of priority. However, once differences arise, this structure without priority can easily cause problems. .
If the top person in charge is Dong Ai, then Dong Ai will definitely kick James Keane out of the project without hesitation. But precisely because she is not the top person in charge, she has been talking to Lawrence about James Keane. Bullshit.
Lawrence also knew very well that Dong Ai must be dissatisfied with James Keane. Li Mu now wanted to have private contact with Dong Ai, and Dong Ai would definitely tell Li Mu about James Keane.
Although he was a little nervous, Lawrence couldn't refuse Li Mu's request, so he said to a female colleague beside him: "Jenny, please take them to the reception room."
The middle-aged white woman named Jenny nodded slightly and said to Li Mu and Dong Ai: "You two, please follow me."
Li Mu and Dong Ai left the conference room, and Lawrence immediately gave Xie Huairu a wink. Nervously, he asked Xie Huairu, "Xie, what should I do now?"
Xie Huairu shrugged his shoulders: "Dong Ai will definitely tell Li Mu the matter. This is 100% certain."
Lawrence nodded, his tense expression suddenly relaxed a lot, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he whispered: "In this case, Li Mu will definitely not let a black sheep like James Keen stay in 3321 United States In the station team, as long as he says that he wants James Keane to get out, then James Keane, this bastard, will definitely get out of this project!"
Xie Huairu nodded repeatedly and praised with a smile: "Principal, you are so proficient in killing people with a borrowed knife!"
Lawrence smiled slyly and said like an old fox: "There is no way. The influence of the Keen family is too great. I can't personally drive James out of the 3321 US station project. I can only borrow Li Mu's help."
Lawrence had actually known for a long time what the Keane family was up to. 3321 US station was the project he approached Li Mu to ask for, and it would also be his most important source of reputation in the next few years. If he wanted to return to politics in the future, 3321 US station would also be his project. An excellent stepping stone that can win yourself a very broad mass base.
How could Lawrence, who was so shrewd, fail to see the intentions of the Keane family? At this time, he was anxious to insert James Keane. Isn't this a clear intention to pick the fruit? If he really succeeds, he will definitely become cannon fodder.
3321 Lawrence himself had just acquired such a good thing and hadn’t eaten it yet, but the Keen family wanted to pick the fruit. How could he agree? How could you just let others slaughter you without resisting
Lawrence thought clearly that if he couldn't solve James Keen, it didn't matter, Li Mu would definitely solve it. But what he didn't expect was that Dong Ai had been trying to solve this problem on her own and did not choose to ask Li Mu for help. There was no other way, Lawrence could only invite Li Mu over and let Dong Ai tell Li Mu face to face.
Coincidentally, Li Mu happened to come to the United States at this time, so Lawrence immediately contacted Li Mu and invited him to Harvard. At the same time, in order to ensure that Dong Ai would tell the truth when he met Li Mu, he deliberately added information to Dong Ai in the past two days. She encountered a lot of obstacles, including trying to favor James Keane in front of her, which made Dong Ai feel even more uncomfortable.
After a person's heart is blocked to a certain extent, even if he doesn't want to clear it, the powerful resentment in his heart will still find an outlet for him. Before Li Mu came, Dong Ai could barely hold back the resentment, but as soon as Li Mu appeared in front of him. At that time, Dong Ai could no longer hold back the resentment in his stomach and couldn't wait to vent it out.
Lawrence could clearly see this from Dong Ai's resentful expression and tone just now.
At this moment, he had begun to celebrate the victory. He expected that with Li Mu's temper, after knowing this, he would definitely kill James Keene without hesitation. Even if he was the president's son, Li Mu would not give in at all. .
He knew and was certain that Li Mu was such a ruthless person at heart.
