The next morning, Mr. Liang began to verify the authenticity of Lu Feng's identity through various channels. They wanted to find Kun Tai's student status at New York University, but unfortunately they didn't know what Kun Tai was studying. When they called, they were only told that he was a Thai and very rich.
The person on the other end of the phone was speechless upon hearing this. Who comes here without money? Moreover, Thailand's economy has taken off in recent years, and many people come to study every year. Now, there's no computer system for filing files, so they have to manually search through the database. Even with Zhang Zhongmou's connection, the other party only gave a perfunctory agreement, saying they would get back to them when they had news.
Mr. Liang felt it was unlikely that he could verify the person's academic record in the short term, so he turned to the Thai side for information. After inquiring for a long time, he learned that Sompa had many siblings, including several sisters. Whether or not he was involved in the rubber industry was unknown to outsiders.
Then, they used their connections to check with Thai customs. There were more than a dozen people named Kuntai, and they wanted more detailed identification numbers, which Mr. Liang had no idea about.
For three days straight, they practically dug three feet into the ground, and finally found someone who could corroborate Kuntai's story. Through someone on Wall Street, they obtained Songpa's contact information.
When Songpa made the call, he heard that it was an integrated circuit company. He had no patience at all. Just as he was about to hang up, he heard the other party asking about Lu Feng.
Songpa was a capable person. On the phone, he said that he did have such a nephew, but they hadn't been in contact for many years. He said that he didn't have a good relationship with Kuntai's family because they had fallen out over the rubber plantation. When he heard that the nephew was now planning to invest in mobile phones, he made a sarcastic remark, saying that this person had little to do with him and that he shouldn't call him again.
In the morning, in the chairman's office, General Manager Liang and General Manager Cai sat on a large single sofa. Zhang Zhongmou, sitting opposite them, looked at the information compiled into a document in his hand, raised his head and said, "Is that all the information? Logically speaking, such an arrogant young man should have left quite a mark at school. Don't you have any classmates to corroborate this?"
Mr. Liang and Mr. Cai exchanged a glance, feeling quite distressed. They couldn't very well fly to New York, go to the school, and stop students with Kuntai's photo to ask them questions. Besides, the students had already graduated, and their classmates had long since left the school.
“This man named Songpa is quite wealthy, and he is indeed similar to what Kuntai said. There shouldn’t be any major issues with his identity,” said President Cai.
Zhang Zhongmou glanced through the information in the document. Even if Kuntai was fake, let alone real, he might turn a blind eye. They needed to find a way out. In the wafer foundry industry, the global competition was too intense and the profits were too small.
The most profitable products are always finished goods. They desperately need a large order to prove themselves and hope to attract other manufacturers.
“Then let’s arrange it. I hope the price of this order won’t be too low. The price of each item must not be lower than two hundred US dollars. At this price, we are still the most suitable option for him globally,” Zhang Zhongmou said in a deep voice.
He knew that if Kuntai was scammed, and the price here was too high, the other party might give up. For someone like him who acted on impulse, giving up wouldn't be difficult. The price of over two hundred was relatively low, and they still had a good profit, so it was a win-win situation.
After getting a bottom price, General Manager Cai and General Manager Liang immediately got to work. General Manager Liang called Lu Feng right away and arranged to have dinner with him privately.
“Okay, this meal is on me. Let’s have it at our hotel.” Lu Feng made the decision over the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng smiled. He had been a little worried these past few days, after all, there were too many uncertainties. If the other party really found out something, he would have to run away immediately. This place was not a safe place.
After leaving the room, Lu Feng found a waiter and reserved a private room. He called Zhu Lidong and Liu Cheng over and said to them, "President Liang wants to have lunch together. The identity issue has been resolved. Next, we need to get down to the substantive issues. President Liu, how is the quotation from Texas Instruments coming along?"
"It's done!"
"Okay, give it to me tonight, I'll fax it over!"
