Chapter 202 True Ally

In the Highland Building, in the business roundtable conference room, three parties from the municipal government, Arasaka, and military science and technology were sitting around the table.

The Round Table Conference was arranged by Jefferson.

He rejected the previously decided triangular seating layout and deliberately changed it to circular seating for the talks.

The purpose is to reduce mutual hostility during negotiations and create a more harmonious and friendly atmosphere for talks, hoping to promote the success of peace talks between both parties.

Representatives from both companies are preparing for negotiations, constantly flipping through electronic files to find the identity information of the other party's representatives.

Tang Yu acted very calmly. Although he already knew the result, he still had to do enough foreplay.

Meredith, who was sitting opposite him, looked equally calm and seemed to have a full grasp of the situation at hand.

Neither company representatives said a word, and the entire scene was silent.

Jefferson looked at the time and saw that it was already time for the meeting.

As the host of the talks, he first gave a brief introduction and expressed the wishes of the municipal government.

Tang Yu held her waist and said, "After this meeting, I will issue a public apology. As for compensation, I can't influence the opinions of the upper management, but the municipal government will provide certain benefits. Are you satisfied?"

Jefferson was sincere and said seriously: "The outcome of this negotiation is of great importance. Night City and even the world are on the rise. If a larger-scale conflict breaks out between the two companies at this critical node, I think no one is willing to see it.

I hope the representatives from both parties can take the overall situation into consideration."

The tougher Meredith is towards Jefferson now, the closer Jefferson will be to Tang Yu.

The reason why Meredith kept pushing Jefferson was not only to show off her tough attitude, but also to send a favor to Tang Yu.

"Both companies have suffered certain losses in this conflict, but if the conflict cannot be contained here, they will definitely suffer greater disasters and losses in the future."

She is currently riding a tiger, and the relationship between the two has reached this point, and they have officially announced their alliance.

Aunt Mei smiled, and then drank the red wine in one gulp, a blush appearing on her cheeks.

In order to deceive others, some cases that could not prove the source of the attack were deliberately assigned to military technology.

Before entering the room, Tang Yu said to Jefferson: "Arasaka came to this meeting with sincerity. I have to trouble you to pay more attention. If the municipal government can stabilize the situation over there, it's okay for me to suffer a little loss here."

He continued: "It can be seen from so many attacks that Arasaka has been trying to avoid and reduce the negative impact of the incident."

Aunt Mei said calmly: "It hasn't officially started yet, why should we rest?"

The entire meeting lasted for three days, and this was only the first round of public negotiations. In the afternoon, there were meetings between high-level representatives of both sides to exchange each other's true opinions in a more in-depth manner.

Jefferson suppressed his embarrassment and anger and explained to Meredith: "For the losses you suffered during this attack, the municipal government will try its best to coordinate with Arasaka Company to compensate."

Tang Yu: "After the changes in the company's top management, she cannot protect herself. She is just a minister. I don't take her too seriously."

Jefferson, who had always been eloquent, was also a bit dumb at this time.

Tang Yu gently patted his shoulder, carried the silver safe, and walked into the conference room, and the electronic gate was closed.

Meredith leaned back gently on the chair and smiled meaningfully: "Really? I would like to know how much details you have?"

The result of this peace talk is related to his subsequent election campaign. The peace talk can only succeed but not fail, so he has to speak again.

Jefferson immediately understood what Tang Yu was referring to, which was to make the municipal government a buffer zone between the two parties and make more room for concessions.

He looked straight at Aunt Mei without hesitation, looking at her upper body wantonly.

If the other party doesn't take away a piece of meat from Arasaka, they won't give up.

Meredith glanced at Jefferson and knew that he had put a lot of effort into promoting this peace negotiation, even arranging a private meeting.

Tang Yu got straight to the point and said, "As the saying goes, everything is easy to discuss."

He knew that if he continued to quarrel over old scores, the talks would only become more intense and eventually break up.

She held the wine utensils in both hands, lightly bumped the cabinet door with her waist and hips, closed the wine cabinet, walked to the sofa and sat down.

Jefferson looked obviously stunned for a moment. He was about to argue something, but was interrupted again by Meredith.

On the other hand, Tang Yu, who was on the other side, took over and said: "My opinion is that I am willing to negotiate, but if military technology continues to be aggressive, then I also have enough information on hand to ensure that you are willing to sit down and have a good talk."

"It's better to discuss while doing things."

Meredith: "Satisfied. Of course I'm satisfied, but if you kill first and then tell later, aren't you falling into your opponent's trap? Isn't your beautiful boss secretly worried about how to keep you?"

He had no choice but to hold back what he wanted to say, announced the end of the first round of meetings, and then invited high-level representatives from both sides to go to another small conference room to continue negotiations.

Seeing that the bilateral relationship was becoming more and more tense as the talks progressed, Jefferson was more anxious than anyone else.

Meredith said nothing and walked into the small conference room early.

Meredith frowned, closed her eyes tightly, and hissed: "So this is your condition, do you want me to escort you for a while?"

After Jefferson finished speaking, he used his eyes to consult the representatives of the two companies for their opinions.

"In addition, in order to maximize the benefits of cooperation between both parties, I would suggest that the municipal government take out some leading projects and develop them jointly by the two companies."

Aunt Mei poured two glasses of red wine, slowly handed one of them to Tang Yu, and took advantage of the opportunity to move closer to him.

"If you don't know how to speak, just say less. You are here to preside over the meeting, not to side with Arasaka. Do you understand?"

Jefferson just laughed twice, and then made a pretentious introduction: "According to the meeting procedures, it is time for private talks. This conference room has been shielded for safety signals. You two can safely exchange opinions. We are outside.

Looking forward to good news from the talks.”

High-end sofas, tables and chairs are neatly arranged, and fresh fruits and meals are placed on the table.

Meredith laughed again and again: "It seems that you have connections and secrets that I couldn't think of, forget it. Since you work so hard, I agree to you."

"That's right. Local conflicts are inevitable. Since you are ready to fight, I will naturally come prepared."

The purpose of his arrangement was mainly to take into account the public talks. Both parties had many concerns and some sensitive topics were inconvenient to be discussed in public.

Playing so wildly?

He was a little unbelievable, but when he saw the bow-tie belt around Aunt Mei's waist, he understood everything instantly.

He also didn't expect that the other party had such a harsh attitude and had no intention of giving him face, making him seem redundant.

Aunt Mei was relaxed and went straight to the wooden wine cabinet and took out two goblets and a bottle of red wine.

Judging from the attitude of military science and technology, Jefferson believed that the probability of success of the peace talks was not as high as expected.

Tang Yu shook his head and denied: "I need you to help me and watch over a few people."

Tang Yu's fingers glowed with invisible electric arcs, and he quickly checked all the electronic equipment to confirm that there were no confidentiality risks, and took control of their highest authority.

Her long brown hair is draped behind her shoulders. The cold prosthetic metal wires between her eyebrows add a cold and serious look, and the playful smile at the corner of her mouth is slightly mature.

soon.

After listening to Jefferson's eloquent talk, she didn't even raise her eyelids, she just sneered twice and asked.

"To be honest, I have no interest in this kind of empty-talking meeting. If the meeting process for the next three days is like this, we might as well break up and go back to have a good rest."

The holographic projection in the middle of the conference table was activated, and members of both delegations transmitted the information at hand to it.

"Military Technology wanted to make the matter bigger and put all the blame on Arasaka. This wishful thinking was wrong."

Tang Yu lifted the silver safe at his feet and placed it on the table. He tapped it with five fingers and smiled calmly.

"When two powerful forces fight, both sides will lose in the end. How about we each take a step back, focus on how to resolve the current differences, and carry out further talks."

But it's different in a small conference room. Only high-level representatives from both sides are present, so they can be more relaxed when exchanging each other's demands and opinions.

"And this attack was entirely due to your serious wrongdoing, which forced you to organize a counterattack."

Military Technology has pictures, texts, audio and video that prove the recent attacks launched by Arasaka Company, many of which caused casualties to Military Technology.

Part of the evidence presented by Tang Yu came from Arasaka intelligence, and part of it came from the attack base information originally provided by Aunt Mei.

"Can I ask more, how about taking both of them?" Aunt Mei opened the safe with both hands, and the familiar indescribable objects were making a restless buzzing sound.

He faced the two company executives and asked pleasantly: "Do you two need a short rest?"

As her posture straightened, the folds of her suit were tightened, and her proud career line became more obvious.

Tang Yu sighed helplessly: "Do you think I can leave Arasaka alive on that day?"

Jefferson wanted to persuade him some more, but the conference secretary stepped forward to remind him that the first round of public negotiations had ended today and would be followed by the second round of high-level talks.

Many fruitful negotiation results are achieved in private.

The two giant companies are among the top in the world and are important stabilizers of the world situation. The relationship between the two companies can even determine the future direction of the world.

Meredith continued to smoke her cigar and made no objection.

The round low neckline exposes most of the neck and shoulders. The slightly dark skin is well maintained and still looks delicate and smooth.

Meredith took out a cigar, cut off the butt, lit it, and started smoking.

"After all, you are using it a lot." Tang Yu looked calm and continued: "You gave me information last time, and now I can return the favor."

Tang Yu remained silent, acquiescing to Jefferson's proposal.

Aunt Mei seemed to be stimulated, and she couldn't help but straighten her back, confidently facing the scrutiny.

Meredith chuckled twice: "Oh, it seems like you have no small tricks. In the past, everyone tolerated small-scale conflicts, but this time you have a premeditated and organized large-scale attack, which is different from an open declaration of war.
