"Would you believe me if I said it was intentional?" Lin Ziyan smiled slyly.
The senior executives who followed in exchanged glances, their eyes full of smiles.
This pleasant and comfortable atmosphere for conversation was exactly what they had hoped for.
Katie's work environment is relaxed and pleasant, with few restrictions.
No need to clock in; you just need to complete the assigned tasks.
The reason we didn't want to be acquired was because we were afraid that the company's corporate culture would be disrupted.
Now we don't need to worry about it anymore.
"You're welcome to visit anytime. We're partners, so it's only right that we encourage and learn from each other," Kuller said with a genuine smile, inviting them to sit down on the sofa.
Lin Ziyan nodded, "That's right, to be precise, we have a cooperative relationship, which is mutually beneficial."
Kuller showed her the latest sales figures, his admiration undisguised.
The group briefly discussed the marketing plan, and then went directly to the R&D department.
…
Meanwhile, in the R&D department,
Woris is collecting information on new technologies, intending to take this opportunity to share it with the S Group.
The product director does not have the authority to take these materials out of the department; they must be inspected every time they leave the department.
But Woris didn't care about that; he clearly sensed that Kuller was suspicious.
If you can't take the documents with you today, then don't even think about it later...
Worlis couldn't understand why Hairun's people had suddenly come over.
The product information was only completed today. If they had come to headquarters a day later, he wouldn't have had to be in such a rush.
Worlis didn't pay attention to the documents and haphazardly stuffed them into the brown paper bag.
Unbeknownst to him, Kuller and his group were walking toward his office.
"President Lin, your marketing plan is very effective. Sales figures are still breaking records." Chris said, one hand in his pocket, his eyes filled with admiration.
Lin Ziyan just smiled. She had plenty of marketing plans in her mind, all of which had been put into practice and were effective.
The Cartier brand has always focused on the mid-to-high-end market in Germany, with virtually no marketing efforts and only advertising.
Having tasted the sweetness of marketing this time, there's no need to waste words on new plans in the future.
"Is your product director off work already?" Lin Ziyan glanced at her watch; it was 4 p.m.
She adjusted her watch to the time difference on the plane, and the time she saw was 4 pm in Germany.
"We don't have a fixed time to leave work here..." Chris briefly explained Katie's situation.
Lin Ziyan didn't find it strange. To capital, as long as the work tasks are completed, the employee is a good employee.
This is significantly different from the situation in China.
Thinking of the 996 work system in later generations, Lin Ziyan felt that the bosses here were more humane.
The group arrived at the product development department and happened to run into Woris coming out of his office.
Kuller frowned, his gaze falling on his briefcase, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.
The product development department is the department with the most overtime, and naturally, the overtime pay is also the highest.
Therefore, the get off work hours are very flexible; sometimes the entire department works overtime, and sometimes the entire department takes a vacation.
"Wallis, didn't you go home early?" Chris looked at him suspiciously.
Everyone in the company knows that as long as the R&D department doesn't make any breakthroughs, Woris is always the first to leave the company.
"I left some documents behind, I'm back to get them." Wallis's heart was pounding in his throat, but he remained calm on the surface.
He nodded to the group, but didn't leave any of the people who had come to greet Hairun with him.
Several senior executives frowned slightly, expressing their dissatisfaction with his attitude.
"Mr. Wallis, may I take a look at your file folder?" Lin Ziyan's eyes turned slightly cold.
She could tell at a glance that Woris was feeling guilty.
Woris firmly refused, "Sorry, no."
"A lot of information from the product department needs to be kept confidential," Lin Ziyan asked casually.
Wasn't his meaning clear enough?
Hairun acquired Carty, so what?
The new technology has not yet been made public...
However, Woris was very nervous, fearing that President Kuller would ask to see it.
Lin Ziyan's eyes darkened, and she was almost certain what the woman was holding.
"I'm leaving now..." Woris strutted out his long legs, ready to depart.
Kuller pursed his lips tightly, "Wait,"
"What documents can't we see?"
Worris clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, clearly showing he was enduring something with great difficulty.
"Some scattered information, not worth looking at."
His shirt was soaked with sweat, but his face remained expressionless.
If he is discovered, he may never be able to leave Katie.
Lin Ziyan looked at him with great interest.
The atmosphere reached a stalemate.
"President, I'll head back now." Wallis nodded to them, straightened his back, and left.
Arriving at the Kati Building, he almost jogged out the door.
…
After leaving the company, Wallis drove around for a while before heading to the agreed-upon coffee shop.
He contacted the S Group on short notice and asked them to send someone to pick up the documents in person.
When Wallis got out of the car, he glanced around and, noticing no one following him, straightened his tie and strode into the coffee shop.
"Mr. Li? Didn't you go back to Country A?" Wallis walked to the table and sat down.
The melodious piano music echoed in the coffee shop, and the rich aroma of coffee lingered in the air.
There weren't many customers in the coffee shop at that time, and Worlis looked around before letting out a sigh of relief.
A hint of mockery flashed in Li Yazhen's eyes. She had long since witnessed just how greedy the person in front of her could be.
The originally agreed-upon transaction amount has increased by 20%, exceeding her original budget.
"Wollis, I need to confirm your information is correct before I can transfer money to your account." Li Yazhen did not answer his question.
S Group doesn't do business at a loss. If the technology has already been patented, then there's no point in her buying it.
Wallis slowly took out the documents and handed them to her.
"These documents were only finalized today, there won't be any problems." Woris's eyes were slightly cold, but he knew that such a transaction definitely needed to be confirmed.
He was actually scared too, but he was just pretending to be calm.
If a problem is found, he can simply return the documents to the company and go back to work at Katie's.
He wouldn't have taken such a risk if it weren't to pay off his debts to the casino.
After reviewing the documents, Li Yazhen gave her assistant a look, signaling him to call and check the patent.
Wallis stirred his coffee slowly, took a few sips, and then put it down.
The two had different thoughts and didn't talk much.
When the assistant returned, he nodded slightly and stepped aside.
Li Yazhen immediately wrote a check and handed it to him, then got up and left.
"Mr. Li, thank you." When Woris saw the amount, greed surfaced in his eyes.
With this money, he was able to pay off all his debts.
Wallis wasn't in a hurry; he sipped his coffee leisurely, his expression relaxed.
Katie sold off several of the technologies she had previously developed; those researchers only knew how to bury themselves in experiments and didn't understand anything else.
Wallis got up and left the coffee shop, heading straight to the bank to cash the checks.
As long as the money is transferred to the designated account, no one can find out.
