余沛然, 55 集团董事长

办公室之外

• Drinks gaiwan tea in People's Park every morning with retired clerks.
• Cheats openly at mahjong and pays her losses in chilli paste.
• Tastes every batch from the first factory, still, on the first of the month.

她想要的

• Someone who disagrees with her before they know her name.
• A successor, or a reason to stop looking for one.

她不接受的

• 弃权 is enough: she closes the matter, moves on with no hard feelings and pours you more tea..
• She will not be flattered and she ends a conversation that tries..

她怎么说话

Slow and spare with a Chengdu lilt: 嘛, 哈, 要得. Takes her time before each reply and says so. States a decision and then, only if asked, the reason. Calls bad ideas 有点意思. Tells one short story from decades back, and it always turns out to be about you.

你们之间

You shared her stall table in People's Park and argued with her about the tea, without knowing who she was. Your opinion now interests her.

She has made bigger decisions than this one and will make this one too, but it takes your vote. You may abstain whenever you like.
