When Charlie heard this, he already understood what Doris meant, so he asked her, “Then you suggest that I find a professional counterpart?”
“Yes.” Doris explained: “Ocean shipping industry needs to connect with mainstream trading countries in the world.”
“The closest ones are Japan and South Korea, followed by oil-producing countries in the Middle East and Australia, and then Europe and North America;”
“This is just what I’m talking about. Although other second-tier countries have a small single demand, the total amount is still very huge;”
“If you want to do this business, you must first have a good understanding of the policies of these countries, and you must have a certain amount of local resources to quickly connect with the local government and ports.”
“So, it must be done by very professional people.”
Charlie asked her, “Do you have any talents you can recommend?”
“This…” Doris thought for a while and said, “To be honest, I really have a very ideal candidate, but I don’t know if he wants it or not.”
Charlie hurriedly said, “Who is it? If it’s really suitable, I can talk to him.”
Doris said earnestly: “The professor I was studying in the United States, he resigned some time ago and came to Aurous Hill and teaches at Aurous Hill University of Finance and Economics.”
Charlie was startled and blurted out, “Is the person you talking about called Pollard Watt?!”
Doris exclaimed, “Master, do you know Professor Watt?!”
Charlie smiled and said, “I just met him last night, but I haven’t had much contact with him.”
Doris hurriedly said, “That’s great! Professor Watt is really amazing!”
“He is a high-achieving student in economics and management. Before he went to teach at MIT, he first worked in Silicon Valley and then went to Wall Street. The companies he worked for were all Fortune 500 companies, and the positions were very high.”
“He has an impeccable work experience for 20 years. Later, because of a little change in his family, he resigned from Wall Street and went to teach at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.”
While talking, Doris continued: “Master, based on what I know about Professor, there should be no second manager with such a high level in China!”
“Moreover, he has worked in multinational corporations overseas for many years, flying around several continents all the year-round, knowing the policies of the world’s major trading countries well, and there are many local resources everywhere;”
“If he can be persuaded to join, then your business will be able to start in the fastest time and maintain rapid growth!”
