Ye'er's dressing was particularly charming today. Her implicit Hanfu showed the softness of Chinese women. Her black eyes were filled with sincerity and kindness, which made Smith relax from her nervous alert state.
"Mr. Smith, thank you for your trust." Chen Yiyi smiled and stood up from Ye'er and invited Smith to come in.
She was wearing a subtle half-dressed evening dress, with lake blue silk and beige shawl, just like a pair of tandem lotus.
"The beautiful Miss Su has an appointment, and even if the whole Kyoto is burning, it can't stop me." Smith held Chen Yiyi's hand and wanted to print a kiss.
"Please sit down;" Chen Yiyi's wrist turned gently, and Smith let go tactfully.
Zhu Tong waited for him to sit down, pointed to a row of world-famous wines on the table, and said, "Today is just a private conversation. Mr. Smith doesn't have to be too nervous. What do you want to use? Please feel free to do it."
"Thank you, I've drunk it," Smith said, biting her lip.
No matter what he said, he didn't dare to drink the wine prepared by "miracle doctor Li Xiang", although he really wanted to drink one or a few glasses.
"Okay, let's have tea." Zhu Tong was kind.
There was no tea set in the Durai Chinjiu House. In his opinion, the tea leaves that were brewed were not tea at all. But Ye Er prepared a set of tea sets and poured out a cup and gave it to Smith.
"Beautiful Miss Su, even a glass of poisonous wine will turn into wonderful holy water when you pass by your hands." Smith said in a compliment, drinking a little, "Mr. Li, you invited me to come, it's not just for the sake of drinking something.
Bar?"
"Of course." Zhu Tong nodded; "I want to discuss with you the prospects of Fuhua shipbuilding."
"Fuhua Shipbuilding will become a great company. We are building a shipbuilding city. Shanghai needs it, and you also need it." Smith gestured artificially. "Don't you think so? Although we have differences, there is no
It hinders the great prospects of Fuhua's shipbuilding."
"Do you really think so?" Zhu Tong smiled unfamiliarly; "Mr. Smith, I will rush to Tianye Ranch in an hour. Do you know why I invite you to meet at this time?"
"Is something happening?" Smith asked in surprise.
There is nothing special, Zhu Tong will not rush to Tianye Ranch overnight. Smith knew that it would take as long as three hours to get from here to the ranch, and it would take time to enter the ranch. If you delay a little, at least before tomorrow morning, Zhu Tong
It is impossible to return to Jiujin.
"Mr. Carl is now in Shanghai. Do you know why he left suddenly?" Zhu Tong asked back.
"I don't know, he didn't give me a chance to say goodbye."
"Mr. Carl was almost assassinated last night. He dared not stay in Kyoto. That's the truth. If you don't believe me, you can talk to him." Zhu Tong took out his cell phone, dialed a number and handed it to Smith.
"No need for now, please say anything if you have anything to say." Smith tried to contact Carl many times during the day, but all failed without exception. Zhu Tong's actions showed that Carl is now under his protection, such a phone call
It's better not to accept it.
"Mr. Smith, no matter how big the differences between you and me are, we hope that Fuhua Shipbuilding will sign a formal contract as soon as possible; right?"
"It's right, at least on this point, our goal is consistent." Smith answered carefully. He began to wonder: What exactly is he going to say?
"But, I just got the news that Mr. Lehman is lobbying some friends to put pressure on the Japanese government to freeze this cooperation. At the same time, Mr. Lehman is also seeking a bill to pass a US Congress to limit similar cooperation."
Before Zhu Tong finished speaking, Smith couldn't help but stand up: "You must be spreading rumors, Mr. Lehman won't do that."
Chen Yiyi said word by word: "Mr. Smith, you must have many friends. From now on, you have twenty-four hours to verify the truth. We will be here tomorrow night, where will we go, and then we must do it.
The final decision. It should be noted that no matter what answer you get, the shares of Helian Shipbuilding in Fuhua Shipbuilding will not exceed 43%, which is our bottom line."
"I'll know soon." Smith took out his cell phone and began to verify.
Zhu Tong picked up the teacup, took a sip, and nodded to Chen Yiyi. This would be better for her.
Ten minutes later, Smith put down his phone; he already had a vague answer.
"If you say the facts, we are in great trouble. I wonder, is the source of your message reliable?"
"Last night, I went to Hayta Hospital to try to assassinate Carl, the murderer who was your special assistant, Mr. Wenger. He also wanted to kill me." Zhu Tong took out the syringe seized from Wenger; "It's a very good thing here.
What's special, its name is: Camellia. Mr. Smith, please calmly think about it: Why did you suddenly lose support? Why did Lord Hamilton and Mr. Lehman withdraw from the United Ship so early? And this time
In negotiations, besides you and me, are there other people's thoughts at the negotiating table? If I were talking about the facts, who would have lost more?”
Smith knew exactly what "camellia" was, and he stared at the tiny syringe.
Zhu Tong's words reminded Smith that the recent situation is indeed not very good. Mr. Lehman and Lord Hamilton are one level higher than him, and they will not see the prospects of Fuhua's shipbuilding and the huge returns they can get after signing the contract.
There is no special reason, they cannot give up the benefits that are within their reach.
"Can I talk to Carl? I have always regarded him as my father." Smith looked at the cell phone on the desk.
Ten minutes ago, he refused to contact the phone and refused to talk to Carl. Now, he needs to listen to the opinions of his seniors.
Zhu Tong dialed the number again and told Smith before handing it to him: "Be careful when talking, this phone is not encrypted. You know Mr. Wenger's background more clearly than me."
Smith nodded, took the phone and started talking to Carl.
The two had a deep understanding and talked about seemingly unrelated topics. Three minutes later, Smith hung up the phone.
"What do you think I should do?" Seeing Carl's experience, Smith inevitably felt sad.
In terms of status, Carl is a core member of the committee, not to mention him. In terms of investment, Smith devoted almost all his wealth to the Fuhua shipbuilding project because of his greed. Carl, as one of the initiators, also invested a considerable share.
.If Fuhua fails to build a ship, Smith may be forced to declare bankruptcy.
"Close the negotiations as soon as possible and sign the official documents."
"But if the situation is so bad, we will make no sense even if we sign a contract." Smith was frustrated.
"I won't discuss specific issues tonight." Zhu Tong looked at his watch and stood up; "Mr. Smith, you must have seen that Lord Hamilton was wasting our time. He was not a mediator, but an obstructor. I guess he was not a mediator.
, The time left for us will not exceed two months. Before that, we need to face difficulties together. I must remind you that you must pay attention to your safety!”
Smith opened his mouth, and a few words turned around his throat, turning into a few low shocks.
"Mr. Li, you should take care of yourself too." He quickly understood Zhu Tong's kindness.
