Chapter 137 - The Savior
Chapter 137: The Easily Born Savior
Duan Yunhong was soon called to the Tianyue Base to discuss the topic of "Who is the savior".
When he received the call, he was a little confused: "Is it confirmed? Isn't it just after the state of emergency is lifted and everything is waiting to be rebuilt? I thought it would be considered final only when the normal living standards are restored."
"This was originally Yue Fengping's wish. Now that he has retired and is very free, the matter of Yu Zhou is over." Ning Fei would not say, "I have already paid the 3.8 million, of course it counts." She just urged, "Come on, Director Duan. I ran into a former adult store owner a few days ago. He said that he still had some old goods in his house, so I went to buy a few. I'll wait for you!"
Duan Yunhong listened to his affected tone and responded calmly: "Wait for me, or wait for my balance?"
"Ha, of course I'm waiting for you...to destroy my location mark." Ning Fei smiled, "By the way, Yu Zhou will also come to watch."
"Watch? You mean supervise, right?" Yu Zhou, the control freak, had said before that he would come. Duan Yunhong was not surprised at all. He just said, "He can come and watch this part, but only the two of us can have the conversation."
Ning Fei jokingly said: "Are you afraid that we will have a 2v1 debate with you?"
"This is a bet between the two of us. Letting him visit the last part is already a favor to you." Duan Yunhong said, "Or do you think that you can only win the argument if you bring him here?"
Ning Fei was ready to admit defeat and didn't bother to say anything more. He replied, "Okay, he won't participate in our conversation."
Duan Yunhong said: "I will leave tomorrow."
Ning Fei said happily: "What can you do if you leave now? The gambling game is over and you are leaving. No one will remember you - oh, except Yu Zhou - do you still have to worry about the leaders of Huichuan not approving your vacation?"
Duan Yunhong said: "I also need to prepare some... things."
"Are you looking for props for fun, or are you looking for supporting materials to prove that you are the 'savior'?" Ning Fei sneered, "Okay, whatever it is, it's up to you. But I'm not in the mood to review those mountains of books with you. You'd better make the 'acceptance materials' more concise, Director Duan!"
***
Duan Yunhong arrived at the Tianyue Base four days later.
The negotiation took place at Ning Fei's home, saving time and effort. The day before the negotiation, the two of them tacitly agreed not to make any trouble, let alone mention what Ning Fei called "finding fun toys". They said good night to each other calmly. Ning Fei did call Yu Zhou, firstly to let him know that Duan Yunhong had arrived, and secondly to confirm that they would negotiate the next day.
Yu Zhou said he understood and reminded him, "Remember to call me when you destroy the positioning mark."
Ning Fei: "Anytime you call?"
Yu Zhou: "At least when I'm awake, it would be best if I could wait until I'm free after get off work. Thank you for your cooperation."
Ning Fei: "You insisted on coming, and asked me to coordinate with your schedule. Do you think it makes sense?"
Yu Zhou: "I have been training my mistress for such a long time, but you can't even control the handover time. Don't even call yourself your student when you go out."
Ning Fei laughed, cursed him, and hung up the phone.
The next day, Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong had breakfast at home, cleared the table, and prepared to start talking about "who is the savior".
Ning Fei even ground two cups of coffee specially, and when he came back he saw that the table was basically clean. There was no pile of paper documents suddenly appearing in front of Duan Yunhong, only a notebook and a tablet. Ning Fei asked in confusion: "Ah, where is your 'mountain of materials'?"
"What do you mean by 'mountain of materials'?" Duan Yunhong glanced at him, "All materials are shared online. If you have anything you want to check, you can share it and we can check it separately."
"Oh, the electronic version? I thought you wanted me to read the big paper book." Ning Fei put the coffee on the table, went to get his notebook, and sat down face to face.
"What a coincidence. I also only made a spreadsheet. I'll copy it to the online file and share it with you. But I didn't pack the attachments accordingly. I'm too lazy to do it. I'll just upload it to the shared file and you can look it up yourself." Ning Fei operated his spreadsheet with one hand while holding the coffee cup with the other hand and sipping slowly. "To be honest, it's quite humorous that we two decide who will be the savior on this spreadsheet."
Duan Yunhong: "I have a desk, an office chair, and a projector. You have a printer at home. It's not impossible to create a formal negotiation atmosphere."
"Forget it. I don't want to feel like I'm in the office when I'm about to leave." Ning Fei said as he clicked on Duan Yunhong's shared spreadsheet, "...Wow."
To be honest, Duan Yunhong's form is much more detailed than Ning Fei's.
He listed the important contributions of Huichuan Base and Tianyue Base in this table, then wrote a sentence or two about the influence of these contributions, and then gave a score in a seemingly impartial manner. Finally, add up the total scores of Huichuan and Tianyue to decide who is the savior.
Of course, the scoring criteria seemed fair, but it was easy to tell with one's toes that Ning Fei had no chance of winning given Duan Yunhong's performance.
With just a glance, Ning Fei knew how much evasion, blurring of facts, and deliberate omissions there were in Duan Yunhong's statement. He quickly found the corresponding parts of the contents in this table and his own table, and began to discuss it word by word with Duan Yunhong. Duan Yunhong was originally a little puzzled as to why his preparations were so simple, but after he was repeatedly refuted and questioned, he put aside the strange feeling in his heart and started to talk to him one by one.
Ning Fei said: "... Therefore, Chen Yikun's research is an important reference for the changes in mutants, and it can definitely be regarded as a major indicator and a high score..."
Duan Yunhong retorted: "He mainly judges, not promotes, so he can't give such a high evaluation as you give..."
Ning Fei corrected: "You wrote down fewer times I led the team to travel around the country. In fact, I led the team to travel around the country for nearly 40 more times than you wrote. I raised the level of all the superpowers in the country..."
Duan Yunhong sneered: "Those people in Jinghui really treat you like a beast of burden. But to be honest, although the overall level of psychics has improved, the dependence on psychics in later operations is not very high..."
The two of them chatted back and forth all day long.
They had lunch and afternoon tea at the same table. If Duan Yunhong had not decisively put away his notebook and tablet, and even changed the subject, Ning Fei could have continued the conversation while eating. After the meal, without waiting for a long break, the negotiations resumed. With such a tight pace, the two actually finished their conversation before dinner.
To be precise, Ning Fei saw that there was only a little left, so he forced himself to postpone the dinner time. It was not until after eight o'clock in the evening that the two finally came to a conclusion.
"——So, judging by the total score, Huichuan still wins."
Even in the face of victory, Duan Yunhong remained calm: "You have no objection this time, right?"
"What else can I say?" Ning Fei finished the water in the cup, stood up and sneered, "My opinion has already been refuted by Director Duan, what else can I use to convince you? Congratulations on winning, you got what you wanted."
After congratulating him lightly, he stretched his muscles and turned to walk towards the bathroom.
Duan Yunhong listened to the sound of the bathroom door closing, his eyes fell on the notebook and tablet across the table, and suddenly he felt a very strange feeling in his heart.
——Why did Ning Fei admit defeat so easily this time?
In the past, Ning Fei liked to argue with reason, especially when facing Duan Yunhong, he liked to hold on to any advantage that was beneficial to him. Although Ning Fei made more concessions after the transaction of 2 million luck began, at least he would say "Yes, yes, yes, yes, boss is really wise" when he gave in. However, after admitting defeat this time, how come Ning Fei no longer even said a sarcastic word?
Moreover, it was such an important and final bet, but Ning Fei actually managed to complete it within one day, and his surrender was surprisingly straightforward. After it was over, he didn't feel any resentment or regret. The only explanation Duan Yunhong could think of was that Ning Fei actually knew that he would lose. Even when there was still a long time before the negotiation, and when it was still far from being possible to determine whether the "zombie crisis was over", Ning Fei knew that he could not win. Therefore, he had long given up the idea of struggling for this, and had not put much effort into preparing materials for the negotiations.
——He seemed to have said before that no matter winning or losing, the end result would be to destroy the positioning mark. So, he wasn't deliberately trying to speed up the matter, was he?
——But if he was ready to give in quickly, why did he still run around the country so hard? Isn't this a contradiction...
etc.
Duan Yunhong suddenly came to his senses: Am I actually making excuses for him? When you should question him, take the initiative to find excuses for him?
"…What are you daydreaming about, Boss Duan?"
Ning Fei came out of the bathroom, stood next to Duan Yunhong, and waved her hand in front of him: "Do you want to go out for dinner? Or do you have ready-to-eat food in your space, ready to eat like you did at noon?"
Duan Yunhong grabbed his hand: "All right. Do you have any plans?"
"No, if you go out, just eat something casually. If you're at home, you can still eat at this table." Ning Fei shrugged, "If you go out, I'll treat you. I'll be the host for the last time."
Duan Yunhong said: "I thought you would let Yu Zhouyi get up and let me destroy your location marker in front of him."
"That's for tomorrow." Ning Fei blinked and said mischievously, "As for tonight, I hope Mr. Duan will give me the 'balance' and help me solve the problem of excitement caused by a large amount of luck."
"..." The other party's attitude suddenly changed from being cold to inviting him warmly. Duan Yunhong coughed lightly, "Then let's eat at home tonight."
"Ha, I knew it. How much food do you have in your space? Are you planning to stay here all the time?" Ning Fei turned around and leaned against the table, jokingly saying, "Should I change my clothes now? Did you also prepare candles?"
Duan Yunhong: "...You suddenly want to play those?"
"I'm talking about a candlelight dinner! What are you thinking about, Duan Yunhong? Of course, it's not impossible, but the candles are a paid item, and I won't play those things with you for free." Ning Fei snorted and stood up straight, "Then at home? Bring out the dishes and I'll heat them up. Is there anything else you need me to prepare? Like wine glasses?"
Duan Yunhong secretly calculated in his heart and replied: "No, I will prepare it."
Ning Fei: "Then do you want me to change clothes?"
Duan Yunhong: “No need.”
Ning Fei: "Really? Think carefully before you answer."
Duan Yunhong: "...I will change it when I pay the balance."
