Xiaoqing was sitting opposite An Tianyu, the volume of the phone was turned up very high, An Tianyu could naturally hear the general content of the other end of the phone.

There was no wave on her face, she was still peeling the apple by herself.

Xiaoqing glanced at her subconsciously, and then said: "President Cui, I'm really sorry, we don't plan to sign a long-term contract with any company, we still hope to be free... and the Lanke consortium is strong, A small company like ours should not be the best partner for you to cooperate with."

The other party was obviously a little shocked by her attitude: "I think Ms. Chen's words are just excuses. I don't understand why your attitude is so firm. Is it because the conditions we offered are not suitable? As I said just now, we The president is very sincere in cooperating with you, and you can ask for any conditions!"

Xiaoqing replied: "We are not dissatisfied with the terms you offered, we are just... because there are many old customers who have cooperated with us for many years, and everyone has a good relationship. Abandoned."

The man hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Miss Chen really knows how to joke. As far as I know, your company has only been registered for two years, and it has only been a little over a year and a half since you officially put into operation. How could there be cooperation for many years?" An old customer? Anyway, I advise Ms. Chen to reconsider, if we can cooperate for a long time, it will benefit your company a lot."

Xiaoqing smiled: "I don't think there is any need for it, we appreciate Mr. Cui's kindness."

Mr. Cui seemed to be still determined: "Don't rush to give me an answer. Is this good? You should think about it carefully. We will meet and talk in three days. I have something to do now, so I hang up first."

Without giving Xiaoqing a chance to speak, the phone was hung up.

Xiaoqing frowned and looked at An Tianyu: "Sister An, I think they seem to be very sincere. Why don't we talk to them and then consider whether we want to cooperate."

An Tianyu shook his head decisively: "No, it's not necessary."

Xiaoqing still wanted to say something, but seeing that there was no room for change in her attitude, she sighed and said nothing more.

The Lanke Consortium is the largest economic consortium in M ​​City, covering a wide range of fields, including catering, accommodation, real estate, aquatic products, as well as jewelry, clothing, and almost everything.

And the boss of this consortium is said to be a very mysterious figure. He was originally an overseas Chinese living overseas, and he has done a lot in overseas industries, but he doesn't know why he suddenly returned to China to develop.

It took only five or six years to spread rumors about the consortium's management, and everyone knew about it.

However, he himself never showed up in person, most of the time he was a vice president surnamed Cui for entertainment.

Just as the old saying goes, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general. Vice President Cui does things vigorously, but he is also ruthless. Many small companies have disappeared under his suppression.

Because of this, Xiaoqing was very afraid, worried that her refusal this time would annoy the president Cui and bring disaster to the company.

However, An Tianyu's attitude was firm, and there was nothing she could do.

She never took the initiative to contact that Mr. Cui, but after three days, Mr. Cui took the initiative to find her again.

The two met in Xiaoqing's office.

Xiaoqing personally made coffee for President Cui, and she said, "If a big company like Lanke is willing to offer us an olive branch, it's a way of looking down on us. We shouldn't refuse, but I also have my own unspeakable secrets. I hope Mr. Cui can understand."

Mr. Cui is about 50 to [-] years old, but he pays great attention to his external image, with a hale and hearty look: "Mr. Chen doesn't have to say that. To be honest, I think you will not refuse after careful consideration. I... President Chen never told me why you insist on refusing to cooperate with us, which makes me puzzled."

Xiaoqing said with a smile: "The main reason is that many people in the company are unwilling to change the original business model, and I can't do anything about it."

Mr. Cui looked at her with complicated eyes: "I have been hearing rumors that the boss behind your company is very powerful, and all your accessories are his handwriting, so I really want to meet him. I wonder if Miss Chen can do it. For an introduction."

Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment: "Well, who did Boss Cui listen to these words?"

Mr. Cui took a sip of his coffee and smiled lightly: "Of course it's an employee of your company. They say that the boss behind your company is a very mysterious person. He never appears in the company in person. It seems that apart from you, Mr. Chen, No one has seen his true face on Mount Lu..."

Xiaoqing's face was a little ugly. It is true that An Tianyu has never shown up in the company, and she is indeed very mysterious, but the employees of the company should not say such nonsense.

She frowned: "Our boss is always a very low-key person and doesn't like to show his face in public, so I actually only met him once or twice. Most of the time we communicate by phone."

Mr. Cui smiled: "Is that so, in other words, he shouldn't see me?"

Xiaoqing nodded: "Yes, I think he will never see you, because once this precedent is set, he probably won't be able to live his peaceful life. His character is very similar to the holding president of your Lanke consortium. , I heard that your president is more mysterious."

Mr. Cui laughed haha: "Mr. Chen seems to have a point in saying that."

Xiaoqing sighed: "As subordinates like us, we can't do things on our own, so President Cui should not make things difficult for me."

Mr. Cui took out a document from his bag and pushed it in front of Xiaoqing: "I understand Mr. Chen's difficulties, so I will give you time. I hope you can show this document to your boss. If you change your mind, you can come to me anytime."

Xiaoqing took over the document, which contained the favorable terms Lan Ke offered for cooperation between the two parties, each of which was beneficial to her own company.

However, even if Xiaoqing was moved, she felt that he was unnecessary, because she knew that An Tianyu would not nod no matter what.

But there is still room for speaking, she carefully put away the information: "Okay, if my boss agrees, I will contact you again, thank you Mr. You can also be friends, if you have time, I will be the host, let's have a few drinks together!"

Mr. Cui smiled: "It's embarrassing to let Mr. Chen be the host. Let me invite you another day. The restaurants in our company's chain have good dishes."

Xiaoqing was just a polite remark just now, she didn't really intend to have dinner with him.

But at this moment, she had no choice but to agree with a smile: "I've been to Lan Ke's store a few times, and the taste is really good."

Mr. Cui said again: "I hope Mr. Chen can bring your boss here sometime, then I will be very honored."

Xiaoqing smiled: "I can only say that I will try my best to arrange it, but my boss doesn't usually see customers, so I'm afraid I will disappoint President Cui."

……

Although Xiaoqing felt that the hope was slim, she still sent the information to An Tianyu, and then she conveyed the words of Mr. Cui to her.

At the end, she added: "This President Cui seems to be more interested in you. I guess he sent someone to investigate you, and he found an employee of our company."

An Tianyu read the document from beginning to end, and then stuffed it directly into the drawer: "According to what you said, it's better for us to meet less often in the future. I don't want them to come and disturb me."

Xiaoqing nodded: "I was extra careful when I came here today. I took the bus, and I got off the bus a long way outside the community. When I came out, I even disguised myself. I don't think there will be any questionable."

An Tianyu said with a smile: "This time there should be no problem, but...we won't meet again in a short time. I'm really afraid that strangers will disturb you. Let's call if you have anything to do. Change your phone number for a while."

Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment and then said: "Sister An, I have always wanted to ask you, why do you do this? Who do you want to face, don't you feel tired like this?"

An Tianyu shook her head: "I'm used to this kind of life, and I will always live like this, so my company must keep a low profile."

Xiaoqing sighed: "But, but I am very worried now, whether the Lanke consortium will take any drastic measures, which will be detrimental to our company. You know, that Mr. Cui is a ruthless character, and many small companies have closed down In his hands, we have to guard against it."

An Tianyu stood up and pushed the window open: "I don't have such concerns. Our interests don't interfere with each other, and we can cooperate properly. He doesn't need to kill us, and it's nothing to them. benefit."

Xiaoqing held a different view: "The Lanke consortium has very long tentacles, which can be said to be ambitious, and they seem to focus on various accessories this year, trying to open up a new world. Although our company is not large, but But it is the most effective, so I am really worried that they will be the first to take us out."

An Tianyu's tone was still indifferent: "I don't care about these things. Even if the company is gone, we still have some savings, as long as we have no worries about food and clothing. And having said that, it's not like we don't have other options."

Xiaoqing looked at her: "You don't even care about our company's survival? I really don't know what you're thinking. If the Lanke Consortium really monopolizes the market, we won't be able to survive in this business. You should Know the seriousness of the matter."

An Tianyu smiled and said: "Lan will not do things so badly, you can rest assured about that."
