Elmi opened up the Chinese market without spending much money, which made the group's board of directors think she had extraordinary abilities. The British market was in a state of turmoil, and she was sent here to achieve great things with little money.
After a long discussion, it seemed that this plan was the most feasible, but the problem was that it also carried great risks.
"Let's do market research first, then we can discuss this plan." Elmi seemed a little irritated and stood up. "By the way, remember to apply for some high-end banquets for me recently. We need to expand our network and get to know more relevant companies. At the same time, we should spend some money to hire a consulting firm to help us design some sales channels."
Several managers quickly agreed. It seemed that this beautiful female CEO who was parachuted in from headquarters didn't have much ability. They had originally hoped that she could bring a large sum of money down from headquarters, but now that was out of the question.
"At least this guy is good-looking, so he's not too upset about being scolded," a man in his thirties said in a low voice.
"I didn't realize you were such a weirdo?" a colleague muttered quietly.
The atmosphere at the scene eased a bit, and everyone smiled.
As evening fell, several brand-new Audi cars were parked downstairs at Jiafeng's place. With the windfall profits of the past few days and the competition among various forces, the tax authorities were keeping a close eye on Jiafeng. Since he had to spend money anyway, he simply started to acquire some belongings, looking like he was going to set up camp there.
Lu Feng also hired a team of bodyguards. As the setting sun shone on the tall office building, Lu Feng stepped out and got into his car under the protection of his bodyguards. He instructed Manager Li beside him, "Tonight, call the branch offices in other countries and tell them to go all out. Also, have the group headquarters' audit team send a team to Europe to start inspecting several branch offices."
"Okay, I'll report it to headquarters!" Manager Li said, then gently closed the car door.
A group of bodyguards got into the car, and the convoy slowly sped towards the suburban manor. Lu Feng's current style was no less impressive than that of London's top business tycoons.
Lu Feng had previously thought he could quietly get away with it and take some money back, but now he knew very well that he couldn't keep a low profile any longer.
Why is Siemens so blatantly targeting him, just because of the home appliance industry?
Not to mention him, the whole of London couldn't understand it. It was as if Lu Feng was a thief who stole a few thousand dollars from a family, and as a result, special forces, armed reconnaissance planes, and even nuclear missiles were already aimed at him. How could people not be astonished?
Those who have followed Jiafeng internationally naturally know what's going on, but most people are completely clueless, and even Sean only learned the inside story after making inquiries from various sources.
At the gate of an old-fashioned manor, the receptionist opened the gate after reading the invitation, and the convoy drove away.
The car stopped directly at the entrance to the hall. A group of ushers opened the car door to greet him. Lu Feng stepped out and walked inside, looking at the towering Roman columns in front of him.
Many people had already arrived and were chatting excitedly in a group. John was in charge of greeting them. When he saw Lu Feng enter, he immediately walked towards Lu Feng with a big smile, opened his arms wide and said with great enthusiasm, "Mr. Lu, it is truly an honor for you to come. I am so happy to see you."
Lu Feng hugged him. He wasn't this dramatic when he attended the banquet last time. These days, no matter what kind of elite or noble they are, as long as you can help them make money, they will all lower their stance.
"Since you're so happy, let's get on with the plane." Lu Feng didn't waste any more words and asked, "Has Herman arrived?"
"Not yet, probably another hour. Tonight's just a meeting so you two can get to know each other." John glanced around and whispered, "Give me a hint: can you add a billion dollars to the profits in the June interim report?"
"June? It's only April now. Besides, we're experiencing high growth right now, but no one knows how long this growth can last." Lu Feng saw through John's greed.
“If your half-year report looks good, my position within the group will be more secure, and I’ll be able to speak up for you more. I’m aware that the UK market is already very mature, and the German and French markets are starting to pick up recently,” John said with a smile.
“Don’t be fooled by the low cost. The money we just give to Harry and Brice could buy a private jet. It won’t be enough to make a billion. I estimate that the entire market will only make a billion in profit. And I can’t keep working on this forever, can I?” Lu Feng said to him, “We should focus our attention on manufacturing.”
“We can hold off on core technology for now. Besides, you don’t need to worry about things over there. Or you can hand over things here to a professional manager. Direct selling has enormous potential.” John whispered to Lu Feng for a long time. Now, all the major companies are researching direct selling.
Some people even went to the United States to consult with John about investing in Amway, a direct selling company. John kept trying to dissuade them, but Lu Feng knew that this path wouldn't last long.
"Alright!!" Lu Feng was annoyed and said in a deep voice, "Shut your mouth and don't say anything more."
After saying that, he walked upstairs, leaving John standing there alone.
Many people at the scene were watching this side. At the last banquet, everyone saw Lu Feng begging for help. How long has it been? Lu Feng is already publicly reprimanding John.
They say good fortune comes and goes, but in London, fortunes change all the time.
Inside the reception room, Lu Feng found a sofa and sat down. He ordered a few drinks, and many people around him looked over. People came over intermittently to hand him their business cards and introduce themselves.
Compared to the last dinner, these white people seemed to have lost their previous arrogance, and their smiles were much more humble.
