At 3 p.m., the Jiafeng branch building was surrounded by reporters. Elmi also called Lu Feng, telling him that he had to come out and clarify, otherwise all subsequent cooperation would be canceled. Now the whole world knows, as if they are really going to sell.
An Ericsson vice president of marketing made some intriguing remarks in an interview this afternoon. He said that Nokia was already weak after being spun off a few years ago, and now it is no match for Ericsson in the European market. In the Asian market, it is suppressed by companies like Sony, and in the United States, it faces companies like Motorola, leaving it with very little room to survive.
In the lobby on the first floor, Lu Feng, dressed in a suit, stood there looking at the long lenses and cameras in front of him, the clicking of cameras never ceasing.
"Where did you get the news that Nokia was going to be sold? Did Elmi tell you?"
"Did you stay at Elmi's villa last night? What happened? Could you tell me more about it?"
"When Nokia's marketing president spoke to reporters, he said, 'You are a complete scheming person, and you can't believe a word you say.' What is your response to this?"
"Nokia is going to sue you, what do you have to say?"
"Is Jiafeng Group involved in pyramid schemes? Can you give a direct response to the speculation surrounding Jiafeng Group's business model?"
All sorts of news came like cannonballs, making people's ears hurt. Lu Feng's face remained expressionless. He cleared his throat and said, "I sincerely apologize to Nokia Group. I was just talking nonsense while drunk and didn't expect it to have such a big impact. I'm sorry. Jiafeng Group has always been a close partner of Nokia. We have a presence in many industries such as home appliances, communications, and integrated circuits. I hope everyone will stop spreading rumors. Jiafeng Group has always been committed to the development of the local area and supports the local community. There are rumors that Jiafeng is leaving. Jiafeng will not leave. Jiafeng has hundreds of thousands of brothers and sisters here, and I am here."
No matter what problems he faced, Lu Feng would apologize first in the interview, then express his loyalty to Britain, repeatedly stating that the money would definitely be spent in London, such as building projects that would create tens of thousands of jobs, and he would go on and on about it.
After saying this, Lu Feng turned around and went back. The security guards maintained order at the scene, allowing everyone to leave in an orderly manner.
As evening fell, Lu Feng's apology video was being broadcast on television. Business people were somewhat bewildered, unsure of Nokia's current situation. Nokia was no longer a publicly listed company and had no need to disclose its financial data. Based solely on private connections, it was known that the overall business was operating well, and that Nokia couldn't compete with Ericsson in the European market.
Elmi had already arrived at Lu Feng's company. Pushing open the office door, she saw Lu Feng and frowned, saying, "How did things get like this? My dad even called and scolded me, and the board of directors had to hold an emergency meeting."
"What's the rush? We just wanted to make a splash, it's just that this time it's a bit bigger. But it also shows Nokia's global influence." Lu Feng gestured for her to sit down and continued, "This matter is already half done, you just need to wait."
"Half done?" Elmi was puzzled. How could it be only half done?
"right!"
"Where is it only half? Siemens hasn't contacted me yet," Elmi complained.
“See, that’s how shallow you are. This matter is best left unsaid. It’s about the Taoist principles of China, the way of nature. Once one thing happens, another will follow. The gears of fate have already begun to turn.” Lu Feng glanced at the time and said, “Want to have a meal together?”
Elmi didn't understand, but Lu Feng looked so certain that it seemed genuine, so she didn't press him too hard and nodded in agreement.
As for why the results were only half achieved, Lu Feng didn't know. Anyway, the news had already spread, and if Siemens really had any interest, they would definitely keep contacting him through various means. The more eager they were, the easier it would be to negotiate. Lu Feng needed to slow down now and slowly find a few companies to talk to.
