Chapter 323 The Smiling Tiger
Thinking of all the scolding he had received because of Lu Yi, Wu Cheng felt even more indignant, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, his smile grew brighter and brighter.
"Lu Yi, what a coincidence to run into you here today. I'm here on business, what about you? Is there anything I can do for you?"
Lu Yi scoffed inwardly. After all these years, who doesn't know who?
Wu Cheng is just like his father, Wu Yue; he developed a habit sometime during that time.
The angrier he gets, the more fake he is, and the happier he laughs, making it impossible for others to discern his true thoughts.
As a child, Wu Cheng still possessed some of the joys and sorrows that all humans experience, but in the end, all that remained was laughter.
It was from that time on that Lu Yi grew to hate this person who always had that fake smile.
The same thing is happening now. Everyone is well aware of the current situation, but he still smiles and says a few high-sounding words to subtly undermine you.
Someone who's a bit slow might not even notice, but even if they do, it's still a very unpleasant experience.
Thinking of this, Lu Yi suppressed his smile. "Alright, Wu Cheng, we've known each other for so many years, we both know what kind of people we are."
I'm not going to waste time talking to you. Just tell me straight, what exactly do you want? I don't believe it's such a coincidence that you came here wanting to invest.
Wu Cheng still smiled, "Hmm... Lu Yi, you're still so direct, just like before."
I really miss those days. Luckily, we haven't changed. That's good.
You know very well that from childhood to adulthood, everything you have, I have the same things.
Seeing that you want to invest in such a great project, I've become interested too, so I'd like to invest as well.
So there's nothing I can do. There's only one professional research institute in the whole country right now, and I can't find any others. So we'll just have to rely on our own abilities.
As you can see, it's clear that the experts are more interested in my terms, so I'm sorry.
Lu Yi chuckled, "I can see that. But I'm very curious, what kind of conditions did you offer that made them change their minds so suddenly and immediately agree to cooperate with you?"
At this point, some of the researchers nearby awkwardly turned their heads away.
They certainly acted dishonestly, but there was nothing they could do about it. They could only blame Wu Cheng for offering such tempting conditions…
Wu Cheng chuckled and shook his head, "I can't tell you that, it's a secret, so please understand."
Alright, we've finished talking. If you have nothing else to say, would you like to take your leave now?
These two are my lawyers; they're about to draft the contract for us, so I need you to excuse yourselves.
Ye Ran sneered, "Comrade Wu is really well-prepared, he even brought a lawyer."
Wu Cheng nodded modestly, "It's alright. I'm the kind of person who never fights a battle unprepared, so I guess it's better to be prepared than not."
Lu Yi sneered, "Fine, since you've arrived here ahead of us, we have nothing more to say."
"Let's all do our best and see who can achieve something first."
Ye Ran pointed to Qingzhu, who had been standing in the corner, and said, "You can sign contracts with other people, but this is one of our people. He's going to come with us."
