"Secondly, all of you here are presidents, vice presidents, and directors of industry associations. Have you prepared the necessary materials to go to the United States Consulate in Hong Kong and explain to the embargo prosecutor and vice consul how the entire wig industry will handle this matter?"
The room fell silent. If these presidents, vice presidents, and directors were truly capable, they wouldn't have ended up in such a passive position throughout this whole affair.
"Very good, this is an association for an emerging industry, it's absolutely terrible. Third, besides the issue with the United States Consulate in Hong Kong, to restore orders, the head of the industry association needs to go to the United States Department of Commerce of Commerce to attend a hearing held by the United States Department of Commerce of Commerce regarding the influx of Hong Kong wigs into the United States market and be questioned. Are you all prepared to explain this to those United States Department of Commerce officials? And how do you reassure those United States distributors that there are no more concerns about problems with the products?" Shek Chi-yik asked the third question.
Silence remained.
"Nothing at all, folks. Can you tell me the point of your association's existence? After the incident, you didn't even have the most basic remedial plan, just waiting for the Hong Kong Government to clean up the mess for you? Although I did come here for this reason and arranged remedial measures, I am still very disappointed with your performance. Rather than trying to save you who are completely incapable and clueless, you might as well just wait for all the factories to default and go bankrupt, and let people who truly understand international business do this kind of business." Shek Chi-yik said to the people in the conference room with a gloomy face.
This time, everyone looked up at Shek Chi-yik Shek Chi-yik. They could ignore his insults, but the fact that he said he had a solution brought a glimmer of hope to everyone's eyes. Yes! It was much easier for the Britain to talk to the United States than for them, China person who had never left Hong Kong and couldn't even speak English. Besides, Britain and the United States were allies.
"Director Shi, is there really a solution..." Tang Wenbao stood up excitedly, but before he could express his gratitude, Shek Chi-yik spoke again, "Chairman Tang, I'm sorry, the remedial measures I mentioned are for the ten factories, not Tang family's Jimei Company. Forgive my bluntness, but your company is about to face millions in breach of contract penalties from your United States distributors, and is now on the verge of bankruptcy. I can't help you. You'd better watch yourself. If you ever want to serve as the chairman of an industry association again, I hope you'll learn from this experience."
Before Shek Chi-yik could finish speaking, Tang Wenbao slumped into his seat. Shek Chi-yik, seemingly oblivious, continued:
"Now, I would like to introduce the person in charge of implementing the remedial measures for this commercial incident, Ms. Angie Perlis, the owner of Hong Kong Manifest Glory Trading Company, who is the last hope for everyone present."
However, as soon as Shek Chi-yik finished speaking, a cold male voice rang out from outside the door:
"I said, whoever raised their hand to try and drive me away last time, this time, let them slap themselves hard with that same hand."
Chapter 299 Meeting
As the sound came from outside the door, Song Tianyao, wearing a trench coat, and Angie Perlis, who had just returned to Hong Kong that morning and was carrying a briefcase, walked in from outside the conference room with a calm expression.
The meeting room erupted in an uproar. Tang Jingyuan, disregarding Shek Chi-yik's presence, stood up and lunged at Song Tianyao, pointing at him and shouting, "Song Tianyao! You bastard! You must have been the one who got that batch of mainland raw materials..."
Before he could finish speaking, Huang Liu behind Song Tianyao took a step forward, stepping past Song Tianyao and pressing close to Tang Jingyuan, who was lunging at him. To others, it was just a gesture of raising his right hand to block Tang Jingyuan from advancing further. However, from an angle unseen by others, Huang Liu's left hand swiftly flicked the armpit exposed by Tang Jingyuan's raised hand as he pointed at Song Tianyao.
Tang Jingyuan recoiled as if electrocuted. Huang Liu, almost as if dancing with him, followed closely, pushing Tang Jingyuan into an empty space behind him. Holding Tang Jingyuan said, "Mr. Song is still recovering from his injuries. Please do not allow anyone else to approach. Thank you for your cooperation."
Song Tianyao didn't even glance at Tang Jingyuan. He and Angie Perlis went straight to the two seats to Shek Chi-yik's right and took their seats. After Huang Liu stood behind Song Tianyao, Shek Chi-yik continued speaking to the uncertain-looking people in the meeting room:
"This is Mr. Song Tianyao, whom I think you are all very familiar with. Next to him is Ms. Angie Perlis, the new owner of Manifest Glory Trading Company, from the Britain. Since I have a meeting starting in forty minutes, I will leave my secretary here to take notes. He will report back to me on what happened today. Ladies and gentlemen, I must say that you have met a kind-hearted person from the Britain who is willing to save you China person from dire straits. Ms. Angie Perlis, on behalf of the Industrial and Commercial Administration Office, I would like to express my gratitude to Ms. Angie Perlis for her efforts in saving this industry."
After introducing the two to the factory owners present, Shek Chi-yik shook hands with Angie Perlis with a smile, then got up and left the conference room.
If the people in the conference room still couldn't understand that Shek Chi-yik, Song Tianyao, and this Britain Foreign Girl were all wearing the same pair of pants, then they were basically sure they were blind.
After Shek Chi-yik buttoned his suit jacket and left the conference room with steady steps, Song Tianyao had Huang Liu a cigarette, held it in his hand, and looked at the people in front of him:
"You all had a great time at the last meeting, didn't you? Shall we have another one? Keep saying things that are going to get back at me? Weren't you having a lot of fun?"
"A-Yao..." Huang Siqun murmured, trying to speak.
Song Tianyao interrupted him, standing up with his trench coat on. "Foreign Devil aren't going to save you, I'll curse your mother! Do you really think the Britain care about the lives of China person? I'm the one who stood up for you fools who are already owing huge sums of money in breach of contract fees! And now you remember to call me A-Yao? Didn't you all enjoy calling Song Tianyao that good-for-nothing back then? Keep calling him that!"
As he spoke, Song Tianyao angrily kicked the heavy, wide conference table, spilling the tea in front of everyone!
