"Mr. Zhou, there is another street intersection and you will reach the address you mentioned." Tang Jun compared the map in his hand and said with certainty.

"Okay, stop the car, let's just be here." Zhou Shuo nodded lightly, opened the car door and walked out of the car.

Seeing this, Tang Jun and Wang Qinian jumped out of the car, but Zhou Shuo waved his hand and stopped him, "I'll go over alone, so don't follow me."

"Mr. Zhou, let Captain Wang go with you." Tang Jun looked around and said with some concern. This is a large residential area on the outskirts of Tokyo. The public security cannot be said to be bad, but the streets and alleys are relatively narrow and are relatively secluded during the day. It is still the son of a daughter who cannot sit in the hall.

"No need, I'll do it myself. You point me the address specifically, I'm afraid I can't find it." Zhou Shuo shook his head, rejected Tang Jun's kindness, but asked him to point him in a direction from a distance.

The east side of Tokyo is close to the Pacific Ocean, which makes its climate very pleasant, and can be said to be warm in winter and cool in summer. Even in midsummer in July, there is a unique quiet temperament outside Tokyo.

Zhou Shuo stood still and looked up at the house in front of him. This was a typical Japanese residence. A small two-story duplex building uses a lot of wooden structures, and a cherry tree was planted in the yard. At this time, there was a bit of sunlight slanting west, sprinkling a piece of gold on the entire building, which actually looked a bit intoxicating.

Zhou Shuo walked forward two steps and took a closer look. At the door of this yard, the family's surname was written in a wooden sign: Bai Shi.

Dingdong—

"Hi, hello, please look for-"

Shiraishi Morina hurriedly opened her door. She suddenly became stunned when she saw the person standing outside the door. No matter what, she didn't expect that at this time, she would see Zhou Shuo appear here.

"It's Zhou Sang, please come in." Shiraishi Morina slightly turned around and gave Zhou Shuo in.

"Hello, Ms. Bai Shi, I'm disturbing." Zhou Shuo walked in with some trepidation after nodding slightly.

"I've caused you trouble, this is my wish." Zhou Shuo handed the gift box in his hand to Shiraishi's Morina.

"You are so kind, I'll pour you tea."

Shiraishi Malina gave Zhou Shuo to the living room, turned around and went into the kitchen to make tea.

Zhou Shuo looked up at the living room. The living room was not big, only about ten square meters. The ground was covered with yellow tatami and ordinary fluorescent lights above his head. When guests came, they could sit on the ground. They just placed a short table in the middle of the living room.

"Please have tea." Shiraishi Malina came out of the kitchen with a wooden plate and placed a cup of tea in front of Zhou Shuo.

"Please try Zhou Sang. This is the Yuqian Longjing imported from China." She put aside the red pear blossom tray, picked up a cup of tea in front of her, sniffed it first, and then savored it lightly.

Zhou Shuo picked up the tea cup and saw a few tea leaves in the cup floating in the water, the swaying heat rising, and a faint fragrance floated from his nose.

"It's really a good tea!" He took a sip. After putting down the tea cup, he smiled with a little self-deprecating smile: "As a Chinese, I don't actually know much about tea culture. I can only say that this tea is loved to drink, but I can't say it."

Zhou Shuo originally wanted to exchange greetings, but unexpectedly, Morina Shiraishi was not grateful. Although she couldn't see the impatient look on her face, the topic was straightforward: "I don't know why Zhou Sang came to the humble house?"

"This. Then I'll say it without hesitation." Zhou Shuo thought about it and decided not to play too much. It's more in line with his personality.

"I came to Japan this time and actually made a special trip to visit Ms. Shiraishi. I heard that your current situation is not very good, so I can't help but feel a little worried..."

"Didn't I just rely on Zhou Sang's blessings?"

Although Shiraishi Morina always looked so calm, she couldn't help but get angry now: "From the initial Huajing bidding, Fanhan Group has actually been planning to make a Nikon lithography machine production line, right?"

She said mercilessly: "A person like Zhou Sang who is deliberate is indeed more suitable for these hypocritical greetings."

Zhou Shuo was not angry because he was ridiculed in person in person. To be honest, for Nikon, he would not feel uneasy in his heart how to use the methods. After all, shopping malls are like battlefields, and life and death are all in their destiny. If there is any result in the end, he can only find problems in himself.

But Zhou Shuo was unable to feel at ease with Shiraishi Morina. To be honest, he was somewhat responsible for Shiraishi Morina's current situation.

As the director of Nikon's lithography machine business unit, Shiraishi Morina is already a senior executive within Nikon. Although he has not entered the company's core power circle, he has a considerable say in lithography machine affairs.

In such an important position, the treatment she receives in Nikon will naturally not be low. Not to mention the annual income of hundreds of thousands of dollars, she also has a high-end residence allocated by Nikon in a prosperous area in Tokyo. There are meals to make up for food and clothes to make up for clothes. When driving by herself, she will give her oil and driver subsidies. Otherwise, Nikon will also equip her with a special car and a special driver.

Even if she doesn't talk about this, she has to control the management power of hundreds of people in the Nikon lithography machine business department alone. In this small world, she is still the only one who can be regarded as a prince.

However, someone must take responsibility for the major mistakes in Nikon's lithography machine business. Tsuruda Specialist of course lost his future, but he could still retain a position as a manager. The responsibility for this business mistake was ultimately on the shoulders of Shiraishi's Morina.

Shiraishi's father was a senior engineer before Nikon, but by the time she became the director of the lithography machine business department, she had already retired. Although she was anxious about her experience, she was unable to have any impact on the current senior management.

A senior executive like her who is outdated in the backstage is of course the best scapegoat candidate.

After some game and compromise, Shiraishi Morina was transferred from the position of director of the lithography machine business department of the quasi-high-level lithography machine department to the second department of the general affairs department of the group and became a small section chief.

Of course, all the houses, cars and various subsidies equipped at the ministerial level need to be recovered. The annual income of hundreds of thousands of dollars has also plummeted to less than one hundred thousand dollars.

It can be said that Shiraishi's entire life has been changed by this incident. And the only person she can resent now is probably Zhou Shuo.

Otherwise, should I hate Tsuruta? Although Tsuruta has lost its professional position, the executive officer is still a senior executive of Nikon after all, and she can hate her?

During this period, she carefully sorted out the experience of falling into this field, and she had already realized in her heart that this was a trap set by Fanhan Group step by step. Fanhan Group, which has mastered immersive lithography and step-by-step projection technology, can easily achieve a 0.35 micron process even if it starts with the 0.8 micron technology mastered by China.

Huajing's 0.5-micron lithography machine upgrade does not require external bidding at all. The so-called ban on lithography machine technology export is clearly a double act played by Fanhan Group and the Chinese government. Even if Nikon moved the production line to China in order to deceive Nikon, the final stepper projection technology hit and completely destroyed the entire Nikon lithography machine market.

This plan is one step at a time, one step at a time. The ridiculously greedy and pride of Nikon's senior executives finally lost the entire lithography machine production line.

"Ms. Shiraishi is right. I really seem to be a bit hypocritical when I say these words now."

Zhou Shuo's calm admission made Shiraishi Morina slightly stunned, and then he continued: "I am really sorry to you, Ms. Shiraishi. Because from a personal moral point of view, I am really deceiving you, blinding you, and seducing you. But from the perspective of big things--"

He said this, suddenly sat up straight and straightened his back and said, "Fanhan Group doesn't owe Nikon anything. The mall is full of traps. Nikon is about to have a time-honored brand that is almost a hundred years old. Do you dare to pat your chest and say that you have never done anything like that?"

"From Ms. Shiraishi's perspective, maybe I'm not a good person. But from the perspective of justice, I have a clear conscience."

"It's just a success and a defeat." Shiraishi Moli Nai let out a silent breath and shook her head and said, "Zhou Sang is right. If Fanhan Group has no backup, Nikon will kick you out in the end..."

"So, I don't think what I did was wrong." Zhou Shuo nodded and said, "Because this is a shopping mall game between two companies, life and death are from fate. But to Ms. Baishi, I sincerely say that I really owe you a lot."

"Okay, what's the point of saying this now?"

Shiraishi Malina said tiredly as if she had figured it out: "It has happened. I think the Fanhan Group cannot spit out the production line that it has obtained, right? So, your apology can't change anything."

"My results are my choice of path. As a winner, Zhou Sang, please don't give me cheap sympathy."

Maybe this is the reason for your own fault. It is not that Shiraishi Morina has regretted the decisions he and Tsuruda made. It is definitely correct to say that the Panhan Group is insidious and cunning, but there is no mistake in itself? If Nikon was not so greedy, not so arrogant, or was more vigilant towards the Chinese...

Maybe the final result will be different.

"Ms. Shiraishi misunderstood. I'm not here to give you cheap sympathy."

Zhou Shuo smiled and continued, "If you have to say it's sympathy, it won't be cheap. Because I sincerely hope that Ms. Shiraishi can come to work for our Panhan Group. The salary is a monthly salary - one million US dollars." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
