Chapter 139

20 years more advanced than foreign countries

In fact, the business card Watt gave him was a little different from the one he gave to TOM before. Because he had registered a new company, the business card he gave him was the business card of Sanqi Technology, and his position was changed from manager to general manager.

This company has a backup in Country E. A quick check would reveal how they could be a scam. Tom must have been scammed before? Is he just paranoid?

The next day, JOHN immediately convened a board meeting. He asked his assistant to make 10 copies of the contract at once and distribute them to each director.

After reading it, the directors all looked at JOHN and praised him highly. They felt that JOHN was their real leader who could raise such a large amount of funds.

In short, they don't have to spend a penny on this contract, but they can get 40% of the profits, and everyone is very satisfied.

Therefore, the project was passed unanimously by the board of directors.

As soon as the meeting ended, he called Watt and told him to sign the contract the next morning and remember to notify the media and issue a press release.

After Watt answered the phone, he immediately told Liu Yiyi the news. Unexpectedly, she just nodded lightly and curled the corners of her mouth to indicate that she understood.

She just wanted to make it more convenient for herself to surf the internet. She already knew that she could sign the contract. Only a fool would refuse such a contract!

"Then just sign it. I don't need to show up, right?" Liu Yiyi said lightly while chewing ice cream.

"Of course, it would be even better if you could come forward and witness this historic moment together. Never before has a Chinese company invested such a large sum in Country E!"

"Okay, I get it! Contact the media first!"

…

The next morning, the contract signing ceremony between R2 Company and Sanqi Technology was held downstairs in the Wall Building.

The scene was simple and grand. Liu Yiyi stood next to Watt in a loose and flowing skirt, which was very eye-catching.

No one knew that she was the largest shareholder and the biggest beneficiary in this signing ceremony!

That evening, news of the cooperation between the two companies immediately made headlines.

Customers who bought the newspapers were all cheering. They hated the dial-up network very much, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Several major telecom operators have long said that they will make a comprehensive upgrade and switch to 2G networks, but there has been no progress.

Now that it has suddenly been fully upgraded to 5G network, who wouldn’t be happy?

Everyone is telling others among their friends, colleagues and family.

"I heard that this time they're collaborating with a company in China?"

"Yeah! It's all on the news! Who cares? As long as I can get online!"

"I heard that in China, you can access the internet on the subway, and you can pay with your phone. You don't even need to carry paper money!"

"Yeah, I'm so envious! I wish we could be like that too!"

"Wake up! I'm so happy to have 5G! It seems like I'll need to upgrade my phone in the future!"

"Yeah, the news also said that all mobile phones will be replaced with 5G phones. I'm so excited. I wonder what these phones look like?"

Tom at home was furious after reading the news in the newspaper!

He pointed at Watt and FOUR in the newspaper and said angrily, "Gloria, didn't you say that Watt was a liar? How come they really signed the contract?"

"And I even called John and told him that Watt was a liar, and he promised to think it over. Is that what consideration is?"

"Signing behind my back!! SHIT!"

Tom angrily threw the newspaper in Gloria's face: "Go find out right now and see if he's a liar or not! If not, I'll never let you go!"

Tom became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He strode out of the room and slammed the door shut with a loud bang. Gloria was startled behind him.

When had she ever seen such a violent husband?

Look again at Watt, who was called a "liar" by himself in the newspaper, and now he is shaking hands with John with a smile on his face, which symbolizes the perfect cooperation between the two multinational companies!

The more Gloria read the content, the more scared she became, because after the 5G network is launched, 5G mobile phones will inevitably be released as well. In this case, their dial-up network and landline phones will be gradually eliminated from the market.

The technology from China that is 20 years more advanced than their country is directly airdropped to Country E, which will definitely have a huge impact on the communication industry here!

Then by then, their FOUR company will face bankruptcy, closure and even go out of business!

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became... Gloria quickly took out the cell phone from her bag and fumbled around to find the address book inside. She had to find out whether this Watt was a liar or not.

I found a friend who said he knew someone from Hua Xia San Liu Technology Company last time, and quickly called him. I was a little excited when I started talking.

"Honey, could you please help me find out more about that Huaxia Sanliu Technology you told me about last time? Does it have an overseas division? If not, have you read the newspapers these past two days?"

"What's going on with that Watt up there? He was originally the manager of the overseas division, and now he's the general manager of Sanqi Technology? Things are changing so fast, I don't even have time to process it!"

"Can you please call back to China and ask your friend what's going on? This is very important to me. Sorry, please!"

Gloria's friend is called Adela. She was a classmate of Jiang Chengyu at Cambridge, and they both studied business administration.

Hearing Gloria say this, she also started to get anxious. You know, this was a matter concerning the survival of her company. She felt bad that she had passed on the wrong information and caused others to make a wrong judgment.

Adela called Jiang Chengyu right after she hung up the phone.

"Dear Jiang, do you remember what I asked you last time? Is your company's overseas business department still in existence? If not, then what about our E Country's Sanqi Technology?"

"I'm going to be scolded to death this time. My friend may not have signed a contract because of this, and lost hundreds of millions!"

Adela was crying as she spoke. She felt that if anything happened to her FOUR company, she would never be at peace for the rest of her life.

After listening to his E-country classmate's words, Jiang Chengyu was silent for two seconds before saying, "Adela, I'm really sorry. Last time, I really didn't know about Watt's situation, and the company chairman didn't mention it to me, so I really didn't know!"

"That Watt incident was caused by our company chairman's daughter, an 8-year-old girl. Initially, she wanted to use the shell of 36 Technology to discuss business!"

"Maybe they found it inconvenient, so they registered a company in Country E called Sanqi Technology. Isn't that funny? It sounds a bit like a copycat company name. Maybe they were too lazy to come up with a name!"

Jiang Chengyu laughed out loud after he finished speaking. "That Watt is a computer graduate student at Cambridge. He is indeed the interim general manager of Sanqi Technology. It's just that our chairman's daughter is also a graduate student at Cambridge and lives with them, so..."

"That's what happened!"

Adela: “…”

I was completely stunned.

"Watt is really the general manager of your company's overseas department?"

Jiang Chengyu: "Yes! That's what I mean, it's just that the company name has changed!"

Adela wanted to cry. "What are you talking about? Isn't your company chairman's daughter 8 years old? I saw her too, that beautiful little girl in the newspaper. You said she's a graduate student at Cambridge?"

"Did I hear correctly?"

Jiang Chengyu was also very proud. After all, the chairman of his company had such a smart daughter, and he was quite proud to work in such a company.

"Yeah, that's amazing, right? Not to mention China, she's unparalleled in the world! I suspect her IQ is over 300! That's terrifying! When she grows up, I'll definitely give up my position and let her take the reins!"

Liu Yiyi: This is so funny. When can I not be in power?

I am just too lazy to be in power. Isn’t it good for someone to help me make money? Why should I work so hard?

Adela laughed and cried, not knowing what expression to put on her face. "Dear Jiang, congratulations on becoming the general manager of such a great company. But I might not be very good. Last time you said your company didn't have this person, and I told them directly!"

"My friend's company is the same as yours. She and her husband's company is also the largest telecommunications company in Country E. They thought Watt was a scammer and never accepted his contract request. They even hung up on him several times!"

"This time it's over! Sanqi Company has already signed a contract with another company! Sigh... I don't know what to say!"

Jiang Chengyu: "..."

"I'm sorry, Adela. I really didn't understand the situation last time, and they didn't tell me, so I'm just telling you the truth!"

"But they later needed information to register a company in Country E, and then the chairman told me about this, so I found out! I didn't know this matter was so important to you. I'm really sorry!"

Adela wanted to cry. Yes, it was not her fault. It was just a time difference and she was telling the truth.

Who can be blamed for this?

"Okay, dear Jiang, I'm going to hang up first. I'll go back and comfort them!"

…

After hearing Adela's explanation, Gloria almost vomited blood and died, but she couldn't blame others. This feeling was really frustrating.

She sat dejectedly on the sofa, not wanting to do anything. This was a huge blow to her. Because of her self-righteousness, she gave her husband bad advice, which caused the contract that was about to be signed to be shelved because of her.

Do you think she is the company's sinner? She herself feels unforgivable!

Gloria left a note for her husband TOM, packed some clothes and went out. She was going to find Watt to see if there was any possibility of reconciliation.

She has to try hard no matter what, otherwise if she just sits there and does nothing, she will feel even more guilty.

She found the nearest hotel to the Wall Street Building and settled down there.

She wanted to talk to Watt the next morning at work. She would rather compensate him for the contract money and try her best to recover the loss of this contract.

But when she got up early at 8 o'clock in the morning and went to the top floor of the Wall Building to wait, the front desk told her that Watt usually came for a quick visit in the afternoon and left because he was also a graduate student and still had a year to graduate, and sometimes he had classes to attend.

She rushed to Cambridge without stopping. The class was still a while away, so she waited outside his classroom.

When the get out of class was finally over, she rushed over and saw Watt’s confused face before introducing herself.

"Watt, I'm sorry to bother you. I'm Gloria, the wife of Tom, the boss of FOUR Company!"

Watt then came to his senses. The contract has been signed, so why are you here?

You called your husband for a few days, but he didn't answer the phone and even hung up on purpose. Now you realize what's going on and come here?

What does it mean?

"Gloria, I don't think I've contacted you. What are you doing here?"

Watt was a little impatient and looked like he was about to leave.

"Watt, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's all my fault!"

"Tom told me about your company the other day. I was too sensitive and thought you were a liar. I did ask someone to call the 36 Technology Company in China, and they, their general manager said there was no such person as you..."

"So, that's why Tom listened to me and didn't sign a contract with you. It's all my fault. Don't blame Tom. It was all my bad idea. You know how sophisticated scammers are these days!"

"My brother-in-law was almost scammed, so I was worried that Tom was scammed! The signing was delayed because of me! I'm so sorry!"

watt:"……"

So that's how it is. Those few days, he couldn't understand why the boss of FOUR company suddenly stopped answering his calls, which made Liu Yiyi think that he was seriously ill!

It turns out they thought he was a liar! How funny!

Watt laughed dumbly: "So what? We have already signed a contract with R2. What do you mean by coming to me now?"

"You don't want me to break the contract, do you?"

"That's impossible!"

Watt turned and left, turning back to say to Gloria: "Don't be so self-righteous in the future!"

Gloria felt like crying but had no tears. Seeing that Watt was about to leave her and there might be no chance to save the relationship, she fell to her knees with a plop in desperation.

Watt was shocked. You know, in terms of seniority, Gloria is the elder, almost 40 years old, and she knelt down to him, a young man in his 20s?

Absolutely not!

So he quickly turned around and took a few steps, trying to help Gloria up.

"Madam, please get up quickly! Why are you doing this? Kneeling down is useless! The contract has already been signed!"

At this time, many students were walking by in groups of three or four. Seeing this scene, some curious people even took pictures of it.

"Watt, please give me one chance. Otherwise, my husband will scold me to death when I get home! Maybe we will even get divorced because of this!!"
