Chapter 50 Starving Ghosts
A good manager should keep a certain distance from his subordinates, and a better manager should not be too far from his subordinates.
This has always been one of Mubarak's management philosophy. No doubters need to be employed. Before Lin Sen signed the contract, Mubarak made his request very clear. He gave Lin Sen rights, and he also gave Lin Sen restrictions. Then, he waited for Lin Sen to hand over the results.
Lin Sen has delivered good results so far, no, it should be said that it is almost perfect.
The outstanding performance of the new player proves that Lin Sen’s summer transfer plan is not a problem. The team’s outstanding record proves that Lin Sen’s job is not a problem. Everything is not a problem. Mubarak feels that he should bring his relationship with the team’s head coach closer, so he invited Lin Sen to have dinner together and brought his fiancée who is not familiar to the outside world and has just been engaged.
Sarah looked at the oriental man in front of her with a curious look but not elegant appearance at all.
Having a meal with your boss has never been a good job, because at that time, eating often became a secondary thing.
Therefore, people who dare to be so "natural" in front of their boss are either really worldly or have some support. The people in front of them should be biased towards the latter, because before he arrived, Carl brought up his deeds to himself more than once, such as the incident on the plane, and now he has become a well-known figure in Manchester.
Just yesterday, he overturned the city, or one of the most famous teams in this country.
However, the person in front of him was not very eccentric, but it was never disgusting, because in fact, he just ate very quickly. Besides, all his words and deeds were very appropriate, at least Sarah did not find anything wrong.
He waved his hand to signal the waiter to help him with a steak. Lin Sen certainly knew that his appetite might arouse the curiosity of the men and women opposite him, but he did not intend to restrain himself.
The last time Lin Sen was having dinner with his boss was in Malaga. In addition to Sans Jr., there was Sans Jr. At that time, the meal was also "earned" by Lin Sen. Moreover, Malaga ranked higher in the standings at that time, unlike now Manchester City is still under pressure by Chelsea, but Lin Sen was definitely not happy to eat that meal, because not only was he not full, but the atmosphere was weird. Sans Jr. during the meal, which made Sans Jr., who should have been the main player, seem to be accompanying him. Now that he thinks about it, maybe his ending in Malaga was destined at that moment.
So, today Lin Sen felt that it would be better to be "natural". Anyway, whether he was holding a job tightly has nothing to do with him eating more or less. Since this is the case, why bother treating his mouth unfairly?
It is said that it is natural. Lin Sen's appetite was not so large before. This was before, before, and after that. It seemed that he was superimposed on him ten years later, and his appetite also became nearly twice as high as before. This was the only "side effect" of his time travel. Fortunately, Lin Sen did not find any other side effects.
"I'm very curious, why can your figure still maintain so well?" After Lin Sen called another steak, Sarah joked. When we first met, Sarah would make such jokes. Lin Sen's "natural" was obviously a big trigger.
"Sara, have you forgotten what his profession is?" Mubarak raised his wine glass, signaled slightly at Lin Sen, and said with a smile.
With Mubarak's words, Lin Sen did not answer, but just raised his cup with a smile. Sarah's question was actually one of Lin Sen's questions, but later Lin Sen discovered that although his appetite increased, his weight did not increase much significantly.
"But, I heard from Carl that you were a doctor before? Why did you suddenly change careers and become a coach?" Sarah asked curiously.
"Change career? No. I am still a doctor now. Doctor is my main profession, and coaches are just an amateur." Lin Sen joked.
"This is not a modest Chinese."
...
Chinese people like to talk about work while eating, which is called talking while eating. It sounds very reasonable. Eating can reduce the embarrassment between both parties and bring the two parties closer. Moreover, that glass of "face wine" can always make people feel that "speaking the truth after drinking", and they can talk about everything in an instant, and everything is easy to discuss, but no matter how much they whitewash it, it cannot change the suspicion of selling dog meat under the guise of sheep.
In foreign countries, people rarely talk about work during meals. Even if there are, they must care about close people, and most of them are for the purpose of care. They think that eating is eating and work is working. Eating together can indeed bring closer relationships, but not work when eating. So, when Mubarak invited him, Linsen knew that this meal might be a "reward" to his work, but it is definitely not a work report. If Mubarak wants to listen to his work report, he will definitely choose a quiet conference room and listen to Linsen's report face to face.
Sure enough, during the meal, Mubarak and Linsen talked more, but only some more relaxed topics, such as Linsen's identity as a doctor, such as how he and Sara met. After eating for more than an hour in a meal, it was less polite and restraint between the boss and the employee, and the atmosphere was more like a gathering between two friends.
Xisan, Mubarak and Sarah left first, Lin Sen looked at the figures of them and showed a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The boss will compare employees, this is management. The employee will also compare bosses, this is success. For Linson, just like when he was in Malaga, he will compare Sans and Serezo, but now he will also compare Sans and Mubarak.
Lin Sen must admit that he did not have a good initial impression of Sangs. Because of that meal, Lin Sen felt that Sangs was a little too puppet, and everything that followed also confirmed Lin Sen's view. Lin Sen's final change in view of Sangs was the resignation without warning after Sangs resigned, which made Lin Sen realize that Sangs, who was a player, was still a person with a temperament after all.
Mubarak, he always gave Lin Sen an impression of being a businessman. His good educational background made him more professional and more productive than Sangs in managing a club. The plan, which was made by Mubarak, allowed Lin Sen to see the specific meaning of the four words "Ambition".
But even so, Linsen still can't say whom Little Sans and Mubarak are more popular now. For a club, it is obvious that Mubarak will be more suitable to be a chairman, but for employees, it may not be. Businessmen are businessmen, and their standards are interests. Linsen can hardly imagine that Mubarak will express his attitude in such a way as Little Sansen just to change someone's mind.
Just as Lin Sen was standing at the door as a thinker, a slender hand suddenly slapped his back, and then Lin Sen was shocked and heard a familiar and gentle voice coming from behind him.
"Hello, starving ghost."
Lin Sen turned around and saw a beautiful man standing in front of him.
He is wearing a professional suit, without makeup, and a pair of eyes that seem to be able to speak are looking at him with a smile.
It’s true that we don’t meet in life, we don’t meet in life…
Lin Sen was a little surprised.
"Boya? Why are you here?"
The one who appeared in front of Lin Sen was Boya who had not seen him for several months. Since that Cup of Kings del Rey ceremony, the two have never met again.
"I have been in the UK for several months. I have been in Manchester recently. Didn't Alyl tell you?" Seeing the obvious joy on Lin Sen's face, Boya smiled.
"How could she tell me?" Lin Sen shook his head.
Seeing Lin Sen shook her head, Boya thought about it again and said, "Why did Alyl tell Lin Sen that she was in the UK?" In fact, in Aylyl's impression, the only time she met Lin Sen should be the memorial trip, which can only be regarded as meeting him. She is really not familiar with her.
"By the way, what did you call me just now? Starving ghost? Where did you start?"
"I was having dinner here with a friend and happened to see you. If I remember correctly, you ate two steaks, three bread, and one pasta..."
"Did you just see it?" Seeing Boya counting what he had just eaten with her slender and white fingers. Lin Sen was sweating profusely, but this did not prevent him from hearing the keywords in Boya's words just now, "Friend? Male or Female?"
Boya was a little surprised when asked. She paused for a moment before saying, "...Why didn't I realize that the Manchester City coach would gossip like this?"
"Let's follow the customs of the countryside." Lin Sen laughed.
"The person who just had dinner with you is the chairman of Manchester City, right?"
"It's him." Lin Sen nodded.
"Where is that woman?"
"Father? Oh, that's Carl's fiancée."
"Is Karl Mubarak? The Chairman and his fiancée have dinner with you? It seems you are really proud."
"Spring breeze is proud?" Lin Sen was stunned for a moment. Of course, he meant what spring breeze is proud of. He knew what Boya said about spring breeze is, but what surprised him was that when Boya spoke this idiom, he used Chinese.
"Did I say it wrong?" Seeing Lin Sen's expression, Boya was slightly stunned, thinking that he had used the wrong word, "Sorry, I just learned Chinese not long ago."
"No, you said it well."
"Then what expression do you have?" Boya said annoyed.
"I just didn't expect you to speak Chinese."
“…work needs.”
...
It took hundreds of years to come out to have an acquaintance, which really forced Lin Sen to believe in the word "destiny". Speaking of which, his meeting with Boya seemed to be full of surprises, once in the embassy, once on the podium, and now, again in a "foreign country". The two of them met by chance stood there and chatted for more than ten minutes, but this was not a place to chat. According to Boya, she would stay in England for a long time, so the two left each other's contact information and left each other.
"Female." Just as the two were about to separate, Boya suddenly said.
"What?"
"I said that the friend who was having dinner with me was a woman." Boya said with a calm expression.
"Oh..." Lin Sen's expression was strange.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just saving you from talking nonsense to Ariel." Seeing Lin Sen's expression, Boya explained.
"I understand." Lin Sen nodded and smiled. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
ps: I will never admit that this is water, because...well, Boya is one of the heroines...? Do you want it?
