No one knew what was inside. The audience only saw the expert take out a dozen photos, and then his expression became quite interesting.
The people on the same stage as Gu Mai exchanged glances, their previously confident and carefree demeanor vanished, and their faces darkened.
The people from Oran left, not even paying attention to the good show. The expert on stage shoved the photos in his hand into his pocket and hurriedly ran backstage. Only then did the person who had been standing behind the expert take the microphone and speak, "Because there is new material to supplement, please pay attention to the subsequent website release for the news of this winning bid."
After everyone on stage left, Qin Liangshan exchanged glances with Fu Siming and followed them off the stage.
All that remained were the people inside, making wild guesses. Quiet discussions rippled through the conference hall, while the people taking photos and promoting the event at the back, unsure of what to do, left the office.
Soon after, a staff member came to leave, bowing and apologizing as he saw off the big spenders one by one.
Gu Mai and Fu Siming left one after the other, their eyes flashing with the light of swords.
Two days later, the winning bid notification was posted on the official website. The list changed from two names to just Tiansheng. Simultaneously, Fu Siming received a text message from an unknown number: [Unknown text message: Mr. Fu, we cordially invite you to meet. A representative will pick you up at the entrance of Tiansheng at 6 PM.]
Even with just a few words, it was easy to guess who it was. Fu Siming found it interesting; what kind of material could possibly pull Si Ge down so easily?
He texted Song Xingyao that he wouldn't be home for dinner today.
Sure enough, when I went out at six o'clock, there was a black Cayenne parked in front of the door, looking rather unassuming.
But as soon as you get in the car, you can feel that the interior design and almost all the parts have been replaced, even the windows and metal are different from the original.
After examining it for a while, Fu Siming concluded that the owner had modified the car to have extremely high safety performance. The glass was not only highly transparent on one side, but the car body frame and glass were also reinforced and bulletproof.
The driver parked the car in the underground parking lot of Xihua Building before respectfully getting out to open the door for Fu Siming and pressing the elevator button.
Two people were sitting behind the screen in the private room. They didn't come out to greet us when they heard the door open, which didn't seem as sincere as the message had described.
After passing the screen, the person sitting behind it was indeed the person in charge of Oran. The man next to him was dressed elegantly, with a beige casual shirt that exuded elegance. The blue diamond-encrusted ring on his thumb seemed out of place with his outfit, and a pure white trench coat was casually draped over his shoulder.
Upon seeing the visitor, he stood up to greet him, extending his hand, "President Fu, I've heard so much about you."
Fu Siming didn't reach out. "You went to all this trouble to call me here, you didn't just do it to flatter me, did you?"
The man wasn't annoyed; he naturally withdrew his hand and led Fu Siming to sit in the main seat.
"Of course not, Mr. Fu, there's no need to rush. Sit down and let's talk slowly."
He glanced at the person beside him, and the person in charge of Oran respectfully went out to give some instructions.
The private room was silent; no one spoke until the waiter came in to serve the food.
"Mr. Fu, please." He gestured politely, his face still bearing a gentle smile.
Both of them were quite patient, as if they were really tasting the food.
Fu Siming only spoke when the waiter brought over an elegantly packaged bottle of wine on a tray, "I'm sorry, my wife doesn't allow me to drink."
"I've heard that President Fu and his wife are very affectionate, which is the envy of many." He picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
Now we get to the main point.
"I'm sure Mr. Fu knows why I've come to see you today."
"You can speak your mind directly." Fu Siming didn't want to respond to him.
“Then I’ll be frank: I’m here to seek cooperation. I know that President Qin of Huahai has a special relationship with you, and I also know that you don’t want the Sige family to get a share of the pie in Jiangcheng. Our goals are the same.”
After saying that, he took another sip, his expression remaining unchanged as he looked at Fu Siming.
"Then what identity do you use to cooperate with me?" Fu Siming's tone was devoid of emotion.
"My identity is not the most important thing; I just feel that we have a common enemy."
A common enemy? Fu Siming scoffed, "How much trust do you think I can have in an unknown ally?"
He chuckled softly, "President Fu is indeed cautious. Since this can't tempt him, it seems I'll have to increase the stakes."
After finishing the last sip of his drink, he retorted from afar, "What if we added the condition that President Fu could also establish a firm foothold in Country S?"
Fu Siming's eyes flashed with surprise, seemingly not expecting him to speak so boldly.
"Speaking so boldly, be careful not to bite off more than you can chew. Here's an old Chinese saying for you."
"It's alright, Mr. Fu, you can take your time to consider it. I'm not in a hurry. After all, you've already accepted the generous gift I gave you, haven't you?"
As Fu Siming prepared to get up and leave, a leisurely voice came from behind him, "Mr. Fu's ex-lover's life in S country is much more exciting than I imagined."
He paused briefly, then continued on his way.
The man who had been silent in the room finally spoke, "Wen, aren't you afraid he won't cooperate with you after revealing your hand like this?"
"Shi Yu, it's because I revealed my hand like this, how could he not cooperate with me?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The companies that participated in the bidding that day were somewhat surprised when they saw the winning bid notice, and they all speculated about the relationship between Oran Group and Tiansheng.
Fortunately, the news only circulated among the few companies that were present that day, and outsiders were unaware of it.
When Fu Siming received Qin Liangshan's call, he already knew what was inside, but he was surprised that the people of Oran had actually gotten their hands on it.
He recalled that day in the courtyard when Qin Liangshan mentioned that the person in charge of Oran wanted to cooperate; it turned out that the ultimate target was Tiansheng.
