Hou Dejian leaned back on the large leather chair and listened carefully to the report.
Wu Fayi and Chen Guihong sat across from each other, with uncontrollable excitement on their faces.
"Mr. Hou, everything has been implemented."
Wu Fayi spoke first,
"Henglong over there Zhao Chen came in person and made an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Jiahe over there Lu Shen also came in person and made an appointment for the morning after tomorrow."
Hou Dejian's eyebrows raised slightly:
"You all come in person?"
"Yes." Wu Fayi nodded,
"Both companies have shown a high degree of sincerity.
Especially for Henglong and Zhao Chen, they originally asked their assistants to talk to them first, but when they heard that Jiahe was interfering, they immediately changed it to take action personally."
Chen Guihong added:
"Jiahe is the same over there. Lu Shen originally sent Zhou Huai, but then suddenly changed to come by himself. He must have known that Zhao Chen was coming."
Hou Dejian laughed:
"Interesting."
He stood up and walked to the window.
Outside the window is the scenery of Zhengzhou Economic Development Zone, and high-rise buildings under construction can be seen in the distance.
"What does it mean when both families come in person?" He seemed to be asking himself, but also seemed to be asking them.
Wu Fayi thought for a while:
"It means our piece of meat is really fragrant."
Chen Guihong answered:
"It also shows that they are really competitive."
Hou Dejian turned around:
"Then let them compete."
He walked back to his desk and sat down:
"Zhao Chen will come to talk tomorrow afternoon, and Lu Shen will come to talk the day after tomorrow. What do you think is the best arrangement?"
Wu Fayi and Chen Guihong looked at each other.
Wu Fayi said tentatively:
"Let's talk separately. There is no conflict between the two sides. We can listen to their conditions separately, and then..."
Hou Dejian shook his head:
"We must talk separately, but..."
He paused:
"We have to let them meet."
Wu Yide was stunned for a moment:
"Meet?"
"Yes." Hou Dejian said, "Tomorrow night, after we finish talking with Zhao Chen, we will have a wedding banquet. Invite Zhao Chen, and also invite Lu Shen."
Chen Guihong's eyes lit up:
"You mean, let them be at the wine table..."
Hou Dejian laughed:
"We don't talk about work at the wine table, we just drink and chat. But since they are all sitting at the same table, they naturally know that the other party is also competing."
He paused:
"Let them see with their own eyes how much the other party wants this piece of meat."
Wu Fayi thoughtfully:
"Isn't this too obvious?"
Hou Dejian waved his hand:
"It's better to be obvious. We just want them to know that our Eagle is a hot commodity. The more urgent they are, the higher our price will be."
Chen Guihong nodded:
"It makes sense. Zhao Chen and Lu Shen are both smart people. They can definitely see what we mean.
But so what if you see it? If they want to win, they have to take the initiative."
Hou Dejian looked at Wu Fayi:
"Notify Henglong that we have prepared a reception banquet tomorrow night, please Chairman Zhao be sure to enjoy it."
He looked at Chen Guihong again:
"Notify Jiahe that since Mr. Lu will talk to you tomorrow morning, why don't you arrive first tomorrow night and we can give him a clean slate?"
Wu Fayi and Chen Guihong nodded at the same time.
Chen Guihong suddenly remembered something:
"Mr. Hou, what if they don't come?"
Hou Dejian laughed:
"No."
He stood up and walked to the window again:
"If they don't come, then it's not really a competition. Since they all took action in person, they will definitely come."
He paused:
"Moreover, after they come and see each other sitting at the same table, what will they think in their hearts?
They may feel that we are playing tricks, but they may even feel that the other party really wants to rob us."
Wu Fayi's eyes lit up:
"So they will only be more active and will not retreat."
Hou Dejian nodded:
"Yes. Let them fight, and we will sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers."
He turned around:
"Go and do it."
Wu Fayi picked up the phone and dialed Chen Xi first.
"Assistant Chen, I have something to confirm with you. Chairman Zhao will come over tomorrow afternoon. We have made arrangements here.
Our Mr. Hou wants to pick up Chairman Zhao in the evening, but I don't know if it's convenient for Chairman Zhao?"
The voice of Chen Xi came from the other end of the phone:
"Jie Feng Banquet? Director Wu is too polite. Let me ask Zhao Zong and I will get back to you later."
Five minutes later, Chen Xi called back:
"Director Wu, Zhao Zong said it's no problem. Thank you Mr. Hou for your hospitality."
Wu Fayi hung up the phone and dialed Zhou Huai again.
"Mr. Zhou, let me confirm again. Mr. Lu will meet with our Mr. Hou the day after tomorrow, right? We have made arrangements here.
But tomorrow night, our President Hou wants to meet Mr. Lu in advance, but I wonder if it is not convenient for Mr. Lu to arrive first tomorrow night?"
Zhou Huai was silent for two seconds:
"Let me ask Mr. Lu."
Three minutes later, Zhou Huai called back:
"Director Wu, Mr. Lu said yes. He will go to Zhengzhou tomorrow night to attend the reception banquet."
Wu Fayi hung up the phone, leaned back on the chair, and took a deep breath.
Both sides agreed.
Tomorrow night, the show will begin.
After confirmation, Wu Yide opened the door and came in:
"Mr. Hou, everything has been arranged. Zhao Chen and Lu Shen have both agreed to attend the reception banquet tomorrow night."
Hou Jianfang nodded:
"Very good."
He thought for a while:
"Where is the banquet booked?"
Wu Yide said:
"Yuda International Trade, Bauhinia Hall. Our fixed point."
Hou Jianfang nodded:
"Okay. The food should be solid and the wine should be good. Let them eat happily and chat happily."
He paused and smiled:
"It's easier to talk business if you're happy."
Wu Yide also laughed:
"Mr. Hou is brilliant."
Hou Jianfang waved his hand:
"Okay, let's get ready."
Wu Yide turned and left.
The office became quiet.
Hou Jianfang leaned on the back of the chair and looked at the ceiling.
Zhao Chen, Lu Shen.
One is twenty years old and the other is thirty-one years old.
One represents Henglong, and the other represents Jiahe.
Two young talents, for the sake of his piece of meat, were going to sit at the same table and drink.
He suddenly felt that this feeling was so damn good.
After confirming the itinerary, Su Wantang went home immediately and helped Zhao Chen pack his luggage.
When Zhao Chen got home from get off work, his suitcase was spread out on the floor of the bedroom, half empty, and the other half already neatly stacked with several shirts.
Su Wantang was squatting next to the box, holding a dark gray suit in his hand and folding it carefully.
Zhao Chen leaned against the door frame and looked at her.
"Do you want to bring this?" she raised her head and asked.
Zhao Chen thought for a while:
"Just bring a formal suit. It's mainly for negotiations, not a cocktail party."
Su Wantang nodded, put the suit back into the closet, and took out a navy blue casual jacket.
"What about this one? Wouldn't it be too casual to wear this when negotiating?"
Zhao Chen smiled:
"It's up to you."
Su Wantang glared at him:
"You want me to take care of your own clothes?"
Zhao Chen came over and sat down next to her:
"You know better than me."
Su Wantang ignored him and continued to sort out.
Socks, ties, chargers, razors... all the same, put them in categories.
This is the first time Zhao Chen has left Shan City since his rebirth, and I feel a little emotional.
Zhao Chen looked at Su Wantang's movements and suddenly said:
"This seems to be my first business trip since I took over Henglong."
Su Wantang's hand paused.
She raised her head and looked at him:
"Nervous?"
Zhao Chen shook his head:
"It's not that I'm nervous. It's just that... I'm not used to it."
He paused:
"For more than a year now, no matter what happens outside, I can always come back at night."
Su Wantang said nothing.
She lowered her head and continued to sort it out.
After a few seconds, she whispered:
"It's only two days. I'll be back after the discussion."
Zhao Chen nodded:
"Hmm."
Su Wantang Fold the last piece of clothing, put it in the box, and zip it up.
Then she raised her head and looked at Zhao Chen:
"I've brought everything. What time is the flight tomorrow morning?"
Zhao Chen said:
"Ten o'clock. Tickets booked by Chen Xi."
Su Wantang stood up and clapped his hands:
"Then you go to bed early. You have to get up early to go to the airport tomorrow."
She turned to leave, but Zhao Chen suddenly reached out and held her.
Su Wantang Look back.
Zhao Chen looked at her with soft eyes:
"Wantang."
"Huh?"
"Thank you."
Su Wantang was stunned for a moment, then smiled:
"Thank you for what?"
Zhao Chen has no answer.
He just looked at her for a few seconds.
Then he let go:
"It's okay. Go to sleep."
Su Wantang nodded, turned and left.
When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and looked back at him:
"Xiao Chen."
"Huh?"
"Come back soon."
Zhao Chen laughed:
"Okay."
The door closed gently.
Zhao Chen is the only person left in the room.
He looked at the neatly packed suitcase and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
There is someone waiting for him at home.
This feeling is so good.
