Sean briefly discussed the current market situation. In the short term, Jiafeng does not face any major obstacles. As for Siemens, Sean does not know much about it. When it comes to the international high-end level, some information cannot be bought with money.
Siemens wasn't that much of a threat to Lu Feng. At least these big companies still had some self-respect and could be dealt with, unlike a small, struggling company like Beko.
After seeing Sean off, Lu Feng picked up the phone and called George. When George answered and learned it was Lu Feng, his voice was full of displeasure.
"What do you want? Are you looking for death? Call the liaison team back. You're resuming activities today. Do you really think I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you?"
George was furious. Lu Feng was looking down on him and challenging his bottom line. He wanted to make money by relying on Lu Feng, but if this person was out of control, then he wouldn't blame George for giving him a good beating first.
"Don't be so angry. The weather is so nice today, why bother?" Lu Feng lit a cigarette, leaned back in his chair, and asked slowly, "Have you eaten yet?"
“I’m giving you one last chance. Don’t push my limits!” George threatened. “Otherwise, your company will be gone this afternoon.”
“Mr. George, have you ever heard the saying that sometimes anger is a sign of weakness? I agreed to cooperate with you, but as you know, this business of mine is very profitable. While you are choosing me, I am also choosing other partners, just like a woman choosing a man.” Lu Feng tapped his cigarette ash and said, “A ‘little lady’ like me is very popular.”
Upon hearing this, George immediately understood that Lu Feng had abandoned him after finding a more powerful collaborator. However, he was no pushover who had managed to survive for so many years.
“Mr. Lu, you really have a lot on your mind in this regard. But it doesn’t matter. I’m always been praised by outsiders as someone who is more trouble than he's worth. I advise you to think things through before you do anything, otherwise the inspection authorities will frequently visit your company. And don’t think that just because you can do direct sales, I can too!” George’s voice was full of threat.
"Looks like you've thought this through. So what if you're coming to my company to investigate? Use whatever means you want, and we'll see who backs down first!"
"You're asking for it!!"
After George finished speaking, he slammed his phone to the ground. Paul and several executives in the office didn't dare to breathe. Just a few days ago, they were discussing how to boost the stock price and reduce their holdings when the interim annual report looked good. But now their plans had fallen through.
"Fake!!"
George stood up and smashed everything on his desk. He'd been bullied by an Asian in London? Was there no law? No justice?
“If I don’t beat him to a pulp, I’ll become a laughingstock in London’s business world!!!” George shouted breathlessly.
Hearing the commotion inside, one of the employees in the outer office whispered, "Isn't our boss always the laughing stock of London?"
"Say less, or you'll get fired!"
The other executives dared not speak, but Paul spoke first: "Now that things have come to this point, I think we should take action now and show no mercy."
"Call Charlie and also inform the relevant department heads that I want to make him lose everything within three days!" George instructed Paul.
After witnessing Lu Feng's extravagant spending in his office last time, Charlie was waiting for Lu Feng to respond, but after waiting for so long, it was as if the message had sunk into the sea without any news.
Now that he has received a second investigation into Jiafeng, Charlie feels that his opportunity has come. He has already gathered a lot of evidence, and even without solid evidence, as long as he shuts down Jiafeng for a year or two, no one can stand it.
At 3:30 p.m., Charlie led a team of market supervision, quality inspection and taxation personnel to Jiafeng headquarters. The office was full of people, and everyone present left their seats.
"Everyone, stay still! We will seize your documents for inspection and demand that your company's warehouse be opened for a thorough examination of the goods!"
Lu Feng sat in his office drinking tea, fully aware of the commotion outside. He could hear everything clearly. Manager Li was dealing with things outside, and had already made a call to Flander's secretary.
Charlie didn't see Lu Feng, so he asked Manager Li next to him, "Where is your boss? He can't escape this. If it involves product hazards, he could be charged with endangering public safety."
"President Lu is in his office, I'll go ask him!"
Manager Li walked towards the office, opened the door and said to Lu Feng, "President Lu, the person has arrived, it's the same one as last time."
"Let him in!" Lu Feng took out a teacup and placed it opposite him.
Charlie was quite displeased when he heard that he was being told to go in. Last time he came, Lu Feng had greeted him with a smile, and was even shorter than him when standing next to him, personally inviting him in.
Charlie pushed open the office door, went in and took a look. The money that had filled the office was gone. He sat down, and all that remained in front of him was a cup of tea.
“I’ve already given you a chance, but you didn’t do it. So don’t blame me for getting serious this time. And the department head is very angry this time.” Charlie leaned back on the sofa and said, “You’re a businessman. You should understand these principles when doing business in various countries. You know the saying, ‘You have to spend money to ask for directions.’ You must understand that, right?”
Lu Feng picked up his teacup, took a sip, looked up at him, and said, "When you came last time, this room was covered in money. Aren't you curious where all that money went?"
"Where did you go?"
"The road has been paved, but it's been paved on a different road. You get paid according to your position. Getting rich doesn't necessarily mean becoming an official, but if you become an official, you can definitely get rich. Big officials get big money, small officials get small money!" Lu Feng looked at him and said, "Charlie, right? I believe you understand some principles. If you want to make big money, you have to work hard to climb up first. Last time I gave you a small gold bar, that's yours. As for me, I spent a whole room's worth of money to pave the way. I can walk on this road, and it's not impossible for me to take a few people along. Have some tea!"
