eLong Corporation.
At the wine table.
Xu Yillong supported his chin with both hands and fell into deep thought.
Li Lin and Qu Xiuwen did not interrupt him and drank their tea in silence.
After a long pause, Xu Yilong said, "As the saying goes, righteousness does not bring wealth... I admit that sometimes my thoughts are too superficial! I always thought that people like Zhai Yuhan would not make much noise even if they wanted to compete with me. I didn't expect that he would start to attack our partners so quickly... He used threats and inducements, and did everything he could..."
Bang!
Before he finished speaking, he slapped the table, shaking the teacup on the table.
Xu Yilong continued, "If Xiaolin hadn't called to remind me in time, I really don't know how a little girl like Ren Li would have dealt with Zhai Yuhan, a jackal! I think it's time to teach him a lesson!"
Li Lin and Qu Xiuwen continued to drink tea in silence without answering.
Xu Yilong continued his monologue, "Xiao Lin is right. The officialdom has its own rules, and the business world has its own rules. They cannot be solved by fighting and killing... If we want Zhai Yuhan to admit defeat, we must defeat him in the ancient city project... So what we have to do now is to increase our chances of winning and prevent Zhai Yuhan's conspiracy from succeeding!"
At this time.
Qu Xiuwen and Li Lin both put down the teacups in their hands.
Qu Xiuwen spoke first, "In the final analysis, it is still the ancient city project. Now Xiaolin has helped us win the support of Jianghai and Longjian Group. In fact, our chances of winning are much greater than Zhai Yuhan's company. No matter how he tries, we still have the advantage... unless..."
"Unless what?" Xu Yillong looked at Qu Xiuwen.
Li Lin also looked at Qu Xiuwen.
Qu Xiuwen smiled and said, "Unless Zhai Yuhan finds two equally qualified and powerful companies to join in, it will form a three-on-three situation..."
Xu Yilong nodded thoughtfully.
Li Lin added, "Now that the bidding is about to start, it is no longer possible to find two large companies to participate in the bidding..."
Qu Xiuwen nodded and said, "Yes, it is too late to find new companies to join us now. But... our company is still facing a fatal problem. If we are caught by Zhai Yuhan, the consequences will be equally disastrous..."
After saying this, Qu Xiuwen looked at Xu Yillong for instructions.
Xu Yilong said casually, "Xiaolin is not an outsider. If you have any concerns, just speak up directly. There is no need to hide them."
Qu Xiuwen smiled awkwardly and said, "I am just worried... Everyone knows that our eLong company has always relied on the support of three overseas financial groups. If these three financial groups suddenly turn against us and stop providing us with financial support, then we..."
Xu Yilong waved his hand and said, "Impossible! These three consortiums support me because they value my connections and resources in China... Besides, we have already secured the ancient city project. Will they turn to Zhai Yuhan at this time? Absolutely not!"
Funds are the lifeblood of an enterprise. Without funds, how can we compete?
Moreover, there is nothing absolute in the world. The more you think something is impossible, the more likely it will become your fatal flaw!
Li Lin is well aware of these principles.
Listening to the conversation between Qu Xiuwen and Xu Yilong, Li Lin nodded slowly, but never expressed any opinion.
This is an internal matter of their company. Even though he is related to Xu Yilong, he is still an outsider in business and cannot say anything.
However, Xu Yilong pondered for a moment, then turned around and asked Li Lin, "Xiao Lin, do you think this is possible?"
Li Lin was stumped by the question.
I thought to myself, how the hell should I know about your company’s internal affairs?
Out of politeness, he smiled and replied, "I only know that Zhai Yuhan is a tough opponent. Once he bites you, he won't let you go unless you kill him! So to deal with such an opponent..."
Xu Yilong responded quickly, "To deal with an opponent like this, you have to kill him!"
Li Lin shook his head helplessly and said, "No. When dealing with an opponent like this, you should never let him catch up... So for some things, it's right to think ahead and consider things more carefully!"
Qu Xiuwen also smiled and said, "Brother Long, please contact our boss in the next two days to confirm whether our relationship is stable. Don't let that villain Zhai Yuhan take advantage of us... The Zhai family can use any ruthless means, otherwise, they would not have grown so big now."
Xu Yilong nodded and said, "It's no big deal. I don't think they dare to stab me in the back... If not, I will make it difficult for them to invest in China!"
Qu Xiuwen and Li Lin didn't think Xu Yilong was bragging, so they nodded in agreement.
After all, the old man’s identity is there. Who would dare to offend him if he doesn’t have some background when doing business in China?
But why would someone like Zhai Yuhan dare to compete with the eldest son of the Xu family? It’s simply because he has connections in the court and he feels that the power behind him can compete with the Xu family.
The conflicts among aristocratic families have existed since ancient times and are nothing new.
After discussing the business, the three of them had a few drinks.
During the meal, Qu Xiuwen suddenly remembered something and asked Xu Yilong, "Brother Long, are you and your sister-in-law still in a cold war?"
Xu Yilong frowned, picked up the wine glass and drank it, and said a little unhappy, "Why mention her?"
Qu Xiuwen said, "My sister-in-law called me yesterday and asked about your situation... She also told me not to tell you... I wanted to say that you two should just be good enough... You clearly love each other terribly, but you have to pretend to be distant... Hey, you two are both stubborn, this is not good..."
Xu Yilong said, "Who loves her to death? I have no interest in her at all now..."
