Chapter 2619
Charlie Wade knows that what he lacks now is not money but talents. Doing business isn’t just talking or dreaming about it. To manage a company, you need to have the top talents with a strong enough ability to grow the company.
Currently Charlie Wade has two businesses: The Emgrand Group and Oracle Pharmaceutical.
Doris Young runs The Emgrand Group, and Oracle Pharmaceutical is led by Liam Weaver. However, beyond these two business sectors, if he wanted to add new businesses, he was lacking a talented manager.
Don Albert is completely loyal, but he is after all a rough person: He can execute orders, but lacks some of the forward thinking required for a business of this scale.
As for everyone else; whether it’s Mr. Quintonn, Mr. White, Travis Laane, or even Jasmine Moore Moore, they all have their own business. Charlie Wade couldn’t let them give up their original career to work for him. So, Charlie Wade’s current idea is to recruit as much new talent as possible.
If he can build a strong management team, then not only would there be strong growth prospects in ocean transportation, but he could expand with his team in other business sectors in the future.
Charlie Wade was eager to recruit Mr. Hank’s daughter because of this thirst for talents. After all, this kind of “buy one get one free” is very uncommon and the opportunity must be seized if it presents itself.
It was clear in Charlie Wade’s heart that Mr. Hank would definitely be unable to convince his daughter to come to Aurous Hill, so he was placing his hopes on himself.
If he could persuade Uncle Hank’s daughter to come to Aurous Hill as her father wished, Mr. Hank would definitely remember his favor in his heart.
So Charlie Wade took out his mobile phone and added Mr. Hank’s WeChat account, and then Mr. Hank recommended him a WeChat business card.
Charlie Wade looked at the business card recommended by Mr. Hank and found that the other party’s nickname was “Little Autumn Isn’t Scared”, the avatar was the head of a fat baby boy: His fists clenched tight, with an expression of cheering hard.
Mr. Hank said from the side “Charlie Wade, let me give you a brief introduction: My daughter’s name is Ziva Hank. Ziva should’ve been born the same year as you. But if I remember, you were born during the bloom of spring in the first half of the year, right?”
Charlie Wade nodded “Yes, I was born in February of the lunar calendar, just a month after the Spring Festival.”
“Ah!” Mr. Hank laughed “I remember receiving a message about it in the spring of that year. Ziva was born in the second half of the year early during autumn, the leaves had recently fallen, so we gave her this nickname.”
After that, Mr. Hank cautioned “By the way, just remember what I told you, after you add her, don’t mention me at any point in the conversation.”
“Okay.” Charlie Wade said hurriedly: “Uncle Hank, don’t worry, I have sense enough not to.”
Mr. Hank smiled, patted Charlie Wade on the shoulder, and said: “Charlie Wade, Uncle Hank has a very strained father-daughter relationship. It’s up to you to help mediate, you must do your best and don’t give up easily!”
Charlie Wade smiled and said, “Don’t worry Uncle Hank, I won’t give up easy at all. If your daughter really doesn’t agree then as long as you nod, I will personally go to Syria and tie her up and bring her back!”

Mr. Hank laughed and said: “Hahaha, it shouldn’t be so troublesome, uncle believes in your ability. If you praise her some as well, she should be tempted.”
Mr. Hank said sadly: “In fact, my main concern is that she hasn’t grown enough yet. If she really wants to stay in a chaotic place like Syria for half a year, no one will persuade her otherwise. Hey, you don’t understand this girl, when she gets stubborn, even the nine cows can’t restrain her!”
Charlie Wade nodded and said seriously: “I’ll try to persuade her, and strive to bring her back soon.”
“Okay.” Mr. Hank said hurriedly “Why don’t you add her as a friend right now and have a chat with her first.”
Charlie Wade smiled and said, “Uncle Hank, don’t forget, there is a time difference between Syria and us. If I remember correctly, they should be five or six hours behind us, it shouldn’t even be dawn yet.”
Mr. Hank hurriedly said: “It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter if it’s not dawn, you add her as a friend first, when she accepts you, you can chat her then.”
Charlie Wade nodded: “Okay, then I’ll add her now. However, if I add her directly, it will show you recommended her. Let me copy her WeChat ID…”
He touched on the business card, copied the WeChat ID, and added it as a new contact request. He wrote in the reason field: Chairman of Aurous Hill Emgrand Group.
Only a minute after the friend request was sent, Charlie Wade received a notification that she’d accepted the request
He was a little surprised and said: “Uncle Hank, your daughter is awake.”
Mr. Hank said angrily : “I guess she can’t sleep. If you threw me into that broken place, I probably couldn’t sleep either.
After speaking, he hurriedly urged: “Charlie Wade, you can talk to her and find out how she is now.”
“Okay.” After Charlie Wade finished speaking, he sent a message to Ziva:
"Hello Miss Hank, I am Charlie Wade Wade, Chairman of Aurous Hill Emgrand Group. I want to talk to you about cooperation. I wonder if you are interested?"
The other party quickly replied by voice: “Did my dad ask you to find me? You tell him to stop wasting his time, I’m not going to Aurous Hill!”
Mr. Hank heard his daughter’s words, feeling depressed he said “Charlie Wade, tell her you don’t know me. If you do, she’ll be all the more resistant to coming.”
Charlie Wade nodded, and continued to reply in text:
"Miss Hank, you misunderstand. I don’t know Mr. Hank, I recently found your papers in a few financial journals. I feel that you are really good with international finance and economic management. It just so happens that I am planning to expand a new project to do ocean shipping, I just lack a strong management, so I immediately thought of you.”
Ziva responded with a voice message:
"If you weren’t sent by him, how did you get my WeChat info?"
Mr. Hank was dumbfounded. While he couldn’t reason out an explanation for Charlie Wade getting her info, Charlie Wade had a clever mind:
[Miss Hank, I found you through an international headhunting company. In order to get your contact information, I paid a headhunting fee of $50,000. Ordinarily the headhunter would contact you first, but I think it’s more direct and efficient to contact you personally for such a major cooperation.]
The search firm specializes in mining companies for high-end talent, they are like a real estate agent with a variety of housing sources. In theory, just give them money, and there’s no kind of info they can’t find.
Mr. Hank immediately gave Charlie Wade and excited thumbs up, the explanation seemed airtight.
Ziva no longer doubted him. She replied:
"I understand, but I’m really sorry. I’m currently in Syria, and may be here for the next 6 months at least. I can’t cooperate with you, I’m really sorry!"
