Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

Before he could finish, Zhou Qi interrupted him: "Don't use the official pressure on me. Do you think I'm afraid? You may have a network of connections, but we don't lack supporters either.

I just think it's too obvious, and you're the loser, so no amount of pressure is going to change the reality."

Zhou Qi straightened up, stared at Du Yangqiu sternly, and said in a tough tone: "Don't try to be clever in front of me. If you want to make peace, show your sincerity, otherwise we will continue to fight. Do you understand?"

The whole room fell silent.

Zhao Huan and Yu Xueping looked at each other in surprise. Why is this guy so arrogant? He doesn't even give face to the senior leaders like them. He is so arrogant.

But they had to admit that Zhou Qi's words really shocked them. Sometimes being too modest can make people think you are weak and can be bullied.

The reason why Zhou Qi is so confident is that even if he loses the Haishi market, he can still enter Haishi again by defeating Huaning and consolidating Hualong's position.

But in the eyes of Zhao Huan and Yu Xueping, this is obviously not that simple.

If you offend such a person, your own position may be threatened, so you dare not intervene easily.

At this time, everyone in Huaning had a grim look on their faces, especially Du Yangqiu, who looked as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

I thought Zhou Qi would be cautious with the support of Director Zhao and Director Yu, but I didn't expect that the other party would not play by the rules at all and spoke directly and mercilessly.

"The price war initiated by you, Hualong..." Du Yangqiu tried to explain.

Zhou Qi interrupted him: "So what? If you have the ability, you can take it. If you don't, just watch us occupy your market. The market is like a battlefield. Don't you understand this principle?"

"There is one more thing we need to make clear. It was you who took the initiative to propose negotiations. I am sitting here today entirely for the sake of the two leaders."

"I'm not here to listen to your nonsense. Now I'm giving you two choices: either accept my conditions and stop fighting, or continue fighting. I want an answer within ten seconds."

"Say one more word, and I'll take it as a provocation."

This domineering performance made Qiao Xuying secretly give a thumbs up, her heart beating fast.

Lu Jia also took a deep breath and suppressed his inner excitement.

It is really admirable that he can maintain such a strong attitude in the face of official personnel.

Du Yangqiu's mouth twitched a few times, and the other people from Huaning, whether major shareholders or financial directors, were all silent despite their heavy hearts. They all knew that the company was facing an unprecedented crisis.

There can be no more fighting. This is the consensus of all members of Huaning.

The conference room was silent, and time seemed to have frozen. For Du Yangqiu, every second seemed to be stretched infinitely and was extremely tormenting.

This is not just a matter of face, but a loss of dignity.

Zhou Qi had completely exposed his true face. Although he was filled with anger and unwillingness, Du Yangqiu suppressed his emotions and asked, "What are your conditions?"

Zhou Qi glanced at him coldly, then turned to Du Renliang and said, "You treated my vice president Lu Jia unfairly and forced him to leave. But I gained a capable general because of this."

"But thanks are thanks."

"You must formally apologize to Vice President Lu and get his forgiveness. If he is not satisfied, then there is nothing for us to discuss."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jia's gaze immediately turned to Zhou Qi, and a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes.

All the hard work and efforts he put in over four years at Huaning were ultimately met with indifference, which made Lu Jia feel both heartbroken and indignant.

However, his new boss Zhou Qi actually took this matter to heart and made it one of the negotiation conditions. He was surprised and grateful for such attention.

Du Renliang's face turned pale as he worried about the moment that would come.

Although he is the eldest son of Huaning, he now has to apologize for being a small figure in the past. This is a huge blow to him.

"Dad, I..." Du Renliang opened his mouth to say something.

Du Yangqiu interrupted him and looked at Zhou Qi, "Are there any other conditions?"

"I've made it very clear. Without forgiveness, there will be no follow-up." Zhou Qi said firmly, "An apology is the first condition. As for whether it is accepted, it depends on your performance."

Du Yangqiu was filled with resentment, but he knew he had no choice at this point. He slowly lowered his hand and motioned for his son to do as he was told.

Du Renliang gritted his teeth and stood up, facing Lu Jia and barely squeezed out a few words: "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."

Lu Jia looked at Zhou Qi, waiting for instructions. Obviously, he knew that the decision was not his.

A storm was brewing at Huaning Company. Lu Jia was resolute and showed no intention of compromise. Du Renliang looked at him with hostility in his eyes.

"Don't look at my vice president like that." Zhou Qi warned calmly, "Otherwise I don't mind teaching you a lesson. This is your last chance."

He pointed to the corner and said, "Stand there and bow ninety degrees until the meeting is over."

These words made Du Yangqiu furious. He slammed the table and stood up: "You'd better restrain yourself, otherwise..."

"What else?" Zhou Qi looked straight at him, his tone revealing a power that should not be underestimated. "Your son knows my strength very well. No matter how you want to play, I can accompany you to the end. I'm just afraid that you don't have the courage."

Du Yangqiu was speechless for a moment, while Du Renliang felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

Recalling the previous scene of being surrounded by the crowd and suppressed by Zhou Qi, he didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be if it happened again.

So he chose to give in, walked to the wall as instructed, bowed deeply, and remained in this posture.

This scene shocked everyone in Huaning.

Du Yangqiu watched all this in disbelief, realizing that his son must have suffered a great loss, otherwise he would not be so afraid.

Zhou Qi didn't give them much time to digest all this, and immediately put forward his second condition: "From today on, we will restructure the company, remove all shareholders, and close all stores outside Haishi."

His voice was cold and decisive.

compensation?

It doesn't matter to him. What he really wants is the southern market. It is unrealistic to force Huaning to go bankrupt directly. Not only will Huaning disagree, but the official representatives present will not allow it either.

Retaining Haishi's business and brand would make things okay in all aspects.

Dissolving shareholders and re-establishing the structure would mean limiting Huaning's future expansion capabilities, and any attempt to fight back would become extremely difficult.

"You are daydreaming, it's impossible!" Du Yangqiu was almost going crazy.

There are ninety-four stores across the country, how can they be closed just like that?

He had expected Zhou Qi to put forward harsh conditions, but he did not expect them to be so excessive. What was the difference between this and directly declaring bankruptcy?

It's simply too overbearing.

At this time, Zhao Huan, the deputy leader who had been silent, spoke up: "Mr. Zhou, I believe you also hope to solve this problem. But isn't this request a bit too much? After all, Huaning has branches all over the country. Doing this..."
