Chapter 195 Are you scared?
Gu Zhiyuan stood there, watching the Zhang couple begging desperately, but Shen Xubai remained indifferent.
She also roughly pieced together the whole story from what they said.
It was probably that two companies were competing for a project at the same time. Shen Group had previously announced that it would not participate in the bidding, but suddenly appeared at the last minute and won the project.
Tiantai, however, saw this project as a lifeline, gambled its entire company on it. Now, it was in dire straits, facing bankruptcy. If Shen was willing to bring Tiantai along with him while developing this project, and lend a little assistance, Tiantai would have a chance to breathe.
For the huge Shen Group, this is just a small matter of leaking through the fingers, but for Tiantai, it can save the company.
However, businessmen pursue profits. If Shen did this, it would not be a big deal for the group, but in fact it would not be profitable.
All the Zhang couple could promise to Shen Xubai was verbal thanks and some intangible promises for the future.
Throughout the whole process, Shen Xubai just sat there calmly, his tone indifferent and without any waves.
Until the end, the Zhang couple had become desperate, looking haggard and ashen.
At this time, Luo Yan slowly spoke: "The branch companies under the Shen Group have some overlapping businesses with Tiantai. Some of Tiantai's technologies are leading in the industry. Since President Zhang values the company's employees so much, as long as they are willing to transfer technology, Shen Group may consider acquiring Tiantai. In this way, Tiantai's employees will not be unemployed."
President Zhang's eyes widened, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes: "You...you want Tiantai's core technology, so this is what you had in mind from the beginning!"
Shen Xubai chuckled: "Mr. Zhang is wrong, it's not us who came up with this idea. The only valuable thing about Tiantai is its technology."
"Besides this, is there anything else worth Shen's effort?"
"This is just a suggestion. Whether to adopt it or not is up to Mr. Zhang."
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang looked at each other and saw the same signal in each other's eyes.
After the two left, Luo Yan looked at Shen Xubai and asked uncertainly, "Will Mr. Shen, Mr. Zhang and the others agree?"
Shen Xubai's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest, and he opened his thin lips slightly: "I will."
"Mr. Zhang values friendship and loyalty. For the sake of his employees, he will do it."
Tiantai has reached the end of the road. If Shen's company doesn't help, bankruptcy is inevitable. Now Shen's company has given them a way out, and it is the only way out.
Although Tiantai’s problems had nothing to do with Shen Xubai, he had calculated every step that followed.
What he has always wanted is Tiantai's technology.
Luo Yan glanced unconsciously behind him, not understanding why Mr. Shen would do such a shameless thing as taking advantage of someone's misfortune in front of Miss Gu and even bring her to that room.
"Boss Shen, now..."
Shen Xubai stood up and glanced at the time: "Let's do this for now."
He glanced at the glass behind him, straightened his cuffs, and strode out of the meeting room.
…
When the door was pushed open, Gu Zhiyuan was still standing in front of the one-way viewing glass.
Shen Xubai walked in and closed the door behind him.
After seeing him, Gu Zhiyuan curled her lips as usual and said in a cheerful tone: "You are done!"
The blinds in front of the glass were already drawn. Shen Xubai paused, then slowly raised his eyelids and looked at her: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Gu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Not bad."
"Are you off work? Let's go eat. I'm hungry."
An unknown emotion surged in Shen Xubai’s eyes, and he slowly said, “Don’t you have anything to ask me?”
"What do you want to ask?"
"What just happened."
Gu Zhiyuan gave him a strange look and said, "Forget about being a workaholic. I'm not an employee of your company. Why are you asking me about this?"
"But..." She paused and suddenly smiled slyly, "If you agree to be with me and I become the boss's wife, then I can really take care of it."
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Xubai's eyes: "Didn't you hear what I just said?"
"I heard it."
Shen Xubai's fingers hanging at his side tightened slightly: "Don't you think that I am cold and heartless, and have deep scheming?"
At least, he is not such a kind person.
Gu Zhiyuan moved his lips: "Isn't that the way it is in the business world? Business is not charity. It's not you who caused Tiantai to end up like this."
"If you are willing to help him, then help him. If you are not willing, then there is nothing wrong with that."
Although she is young, she is not naive and ignorant of the world.
She understands everything she should understand.
The year she graduated from the college entrance examination, she was originally going to stay in China to attend university, but something happened to her father at that time, so he hurriedly sent her abroad.
Wait until things calm down before letting her come back.
They thought they had kept it a secret, but she had actually returned secretly during the trip and knew everything she needed to know. Someone had framed Gu's father, but fortunately, the truth was later revealed and the matter was never mentioned again.
Whether in the business world or in the political arena, there are many cases of intrigue and deception.
How could Shen Xubai have come this far and become a big boss without any scheming or tricks?
She felt a little strange at first seeing Shen Xubai being so cold, but, so what?
If she saw Shen Yixiao like this, she would definitely scold him as a profiteer. But towards Shen Xubai, she would only applaud and praise him for being so amazing.
How can it not be considered powerful if he can calculate people's hearts and use them for his own purposes?
Shen Xubai looked into her eyes, which were clear and pure. She really thought so.
"Do you know what this room is used for?" Shen Xubai looked around and spoke slowly, "When I first took over Shen Corporation, many people in the group's senior management were dissatisfied. Although they appeared to be kind and submissive, they kept trying to trip me up behind my back."
"At that time, I sat in this room, watching their hypocritical arguments, observing their expressions, trying to discern whether they were sincere or not, trying to find flaws in their faces, and then breaking them down one by one..."
Gu Zhiyuan was slightly stunned. She had never thought that Shen Xubai had such an experience.
He stared at her, the emotions in his eyes deepening inch by inch, making it impossible to see through them.
"Are you scared?"
Gu Zhiyuan blinked: "What are you afraid of?"
"This room is not a lounge. It is used to monitor them."
Although it has not been used for many years.
Gu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up: "Is it like those secret rooms in ancient times? We can see others but they can't see us."
Her tone was a little excited. "But now your one-way viewing glass is no longer a secret weapon. It should be upgraded."
"Hmm?" Shen Xubai almost couldn't keep up with her jumping thoughts.
"Besides, everyone knows about your room. It's not a secret."
Shen Xubai suddenly laughed.
Gu Zhiyuan looked at him in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Aren't you hungry? Let's go."
