At Altice Group headquarters, Kang Bomin was not in a good mood after learning that the people from Ant Army Company had already returned home.
The collaboration with Ant Army Company had practically been finalized.
He had used the second-generation Butterfly Eye Phone. The Intelligent Assistant in particular was incredibly useful software. It could let people completely bid farewell to the era of controlling phones with their palms. Combined with Butterfly Eye's refined appearance, it was a tier above the Apple Phone.
If they had reached a partnership with Ant Army Company, Altice Group would definitely have been able to use it to secure a larger share of the communications market.
Yet at the final moment, the board of directors had actually refused to approve the partnership and had even told him to propose acquiring shares in Ant Army Company.
They had all underestimated Ant Army Company's determination.
The moment the share acquisition was proposed, it was rejected without hesitation. The people from Ant Army Company returned home overnight, without even any intention of continuing negotiations with them.
He had a feeling that they might truly have lost an extremely important partner this time. With a sigh, Kang Bomin took out his phone and dialed a number.
News of the failed partnership between Ant Army Company and Altice Group quickly made its way back home.
Ant Army had developed too rapidly during this period, continuously expanding its share of the domestic high-end phone market and now preparing to enter the international market. The failure of Ant Army's trip to Europe became a focal point of media attention. The moment news emerged in the European media, it was already being reported by every domestic outlet.
