Vol 5 Chapter 822: Shoot yourself in the foot

Everyone was stunned for a moment. No matter what Whitman was going to say at this time, in any case, she interrupted Feng Yiping's speech at this time. It was a very rude behavior to look at it.

Some of the competition between the two companies, whether it is the company's employees or today's guests, have heard of it.

This is actually nothing new. Which company does not have a competitor yet?

Many people present know that a company, whether it was originally an e-commerce company, a search, a portal, or a software... When it grows to a certain stage, it must be another way to achieve the same goal. You Some companies that had a good relationship with them, or even companies that didn't seem related before, become competitors.

The companies of Feng Yiping and Whitman are naturally considered to have reached a high level. There will naturally be various frictions and competitions between each other.

But as long as it is orderly, these competitions are beneficial.

Which successful company in Silicon Valley hasn't gone so far as this step by step, and is still continuing this experience today?

If because of such a thing, and on such an occasion, if you are deliberately embarrassed or make trouble regardless of etiquette, then you will really fall behind.

The crowd that was still quiet will become lively again.

Feng Yiping's executives, whether it was Merbach or Hastings, including Page, looked at Whitman very annoyed.

Many other guests who did not take a stand, such as Chief Yang, looked at Whitman coldly at this time. Even if you are a lady, even if you are Whitman, are you not talking about basic etiquette on such occasions?

Cummins, who came in with Whitman very politely just now, didn't have a smile on his face, and led two people towards her, "Ms. Whitman,"

Seeing him like that, I'm afraid I can't wait to get Whitman out now.

To say that Whitman's psychological endurance is not generally strong. Under the gaze of so many people, she still doesn't change her face, "Feng, sorry to interrupt, I just have a suggestion."

At this moment, there was no smile on her face.

Feng Yiping glanced at Cummins. He was shameless, but at least in front of others, we still have to be more careful.

He knew that since Whitman had stepped up, he would definitely want to do something, but he also believed that on an occasion like today, in front of the helms of so many well-known companies in Silicon Valley, Whitman would not overdo anything. Come out, if not, eBay’s board will not let her sit in her current seat.

Feng Yiping smiled, "Presumably Ms. Whitman's proposal will definitely benefit us a lot, please, please,"

What he said is actually equivalent to a speech to Whitman, which limits the scope. It is not a proposal that will benefit everyone, so don't say it.

Upstairs, Amanda, who was looking at her father very happily, asked puzzledly, "Mom, what is that grandma doing?"

"Nothing," Huang Jingping said while looking at the audience, but couldn't help but cursed in her heart, "Old witch,"

At this time, why bother?

…………

In the hall, Whitman glanced at Feng Yiping, "Thank you,"

She walked to the front of the crowd and faced the crowd of guests with a solemn expression, "We all know about the disaster that occurred in the Indian Ocean. I believe everyone is as shocked as I am."

"I am very grateful that Feng happened to provide such an opportunity. Today, so many of us are gathered together. Taking this opportunity, I propose that for the unfortunate brothers and sisters who died, we now observe a minute of silence."

Upstairs, Huang Jingping covered Amanda's ears and cursed fiercely in her native dialect.

There was an uproar downstairs!

Originally, when she was talking about the Indian Ocean tsunami, many people were still relieved.

To be honest, those who are present today and those who can be invited today are considered to have identities. In fact, they don’t want to have someone in their group who does not care about the occasion and does not care about etiquette. To a certain extent, it is correct Everyone is lowered.

On such occasions, it is still a bit abrupt to talk about the Indian Ocean tsunami, but it is more appropriate than everyone previously guessed.

It’s just that everyone thought that she would initiate a fundraising initiative, which just robbed Feng Yiping from the limelight. But who would call her a woman or a "senior" woman, use such small tricks to make things happen. Little temper, well, no way.

However, what she actually proposed was a silence on the spot, which is a bit beyond everyone's bottom line.

What are you doing here today? Congratulations on the opening of the NEXTDOOR headquarters campus. At such a ceremony, you suggest that everyone observe silently.

It's better to tear it up with Feng Yiping regardless of demeanor.

Chief Yang, who is also a Chinese, couldn't help shaking his head at this time. He knew how bad this behavior was in the traditional culture of Greater China.

Of course, in European and American cultures, this is also a very excessive thing.

If they say that their gathering today was organized by a public organization, then everyone can accept a silence before the event.

But this gathering now is a corporate act and a celebration. To make such a proposal on such an occasion is really challenging everyone's bottom line.

Meyer finally wanted to understand the same problem at this time.

Before, she wondered why Whitman chose a black suit today because she had planned for a long time.

…………

Upon hearing Whitman's words, Feng Yiping actually cursed himself a few words in his heart.

He is a kind person, a person who respects the old and loves the young. Before remembering that he used the term "that old woman" to refer to Whitman, he still blamed himself.

But after listening to Whitman's proposal, he suddenly felt that he was really beeping a dog. How can he blame himself for such behavior?

At the beginning, I still cursed lightly in my heart, at least I should call her "old witch,"-he didn't know, he was highly consistent with Huang Jingping in one thing.

The reason why I chose to hold such a gathering today is to let more people avoid that natural disaster. How did you choose to attack me on this occasion?

"Feng, do you agree with my proposal?" Whitman turned to ask Feng Yiping's opinion.

She naturally knew that her behavior was a bit excessive, and she also knew that her behavior was not entirely undesirable, because at this sudden time, she now made such a suggestion, in any case, occupying a moral height.

I believe that this point will definitely be mentioned when the media reports.

She had also thought about this situation, Feng Yiping was naturally 10,000 unwilling, but he had to pinch his nose to agree...

Hehe, such a scene, think about it and make yourself comfortable.

There was no smile on Feng Yiping's face at this time.

He squinted at Whitman.

That look made Mayer feel a little excited, but Whitman felt a little dangerous.

"I don't agree," Feng Yiping said flatly.

Whitman was taken aback, how could you refuse such a thing in front of so many people? Are you not afraid that everyone thinks you are a person without compassion and sense of responsibility?

Many people were also shocked. How could Feng Yiping disagree so simply? Although this makes them feel that this excitement may be very exciting, it does not seem appropriate to reject such an offer.

Not qualified to stand on the stage, Zheng Jiayi, who can only stand on the side of the stage, was a little anxious at this time.

She can naturally understand Feng Yiping's irritation, but as a press spokesperson ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ she understands that rejecting such an offer at this time will definitely bring about many bad follow-up effects.

She leaned a few steps toward the edge of the stage, trying to remind Feng Yiping.

"Such a thing, Feng you...," Feng Yiping's refusal was beyond Whitman's expectation. After he was shocked, it was ecstasy. Haha, you actually chose to stand on the opposite side of the mainstream opinion?

She suppressed her secret joy and pretended to ask Feng Yiping very puzzled.

"When something like this happens, we are all very worried," Feng Yiping stopped looking at Whitman, and said loudly into the microphone, suddenly overwhelming Whitman's voice.

"However, one or two days after a similar disaster, that is, within 24 to 48 hours, is the golden time for rescue. Therefore, many brothers and sisters who have encountered the tsunami may still be rescued at this time."

"So Ms. Whitman, isn't it appropriate to mourn for them at this time?" Feng Yiping looked straight at Whitman, "Is it too urgent?"

Facing the compelling Feng Yiping, Whitman's mouth moved a few times, "This..., this...,"
