"Next time? What have you been doing these past few days?"
"I'll wait for news. If you get executed, I won't take the money. I'll just buy a ticket home and eat here every day, travel around and stuff."
Zhang Fengxia looked up and saw Lu Feng's murderous gaze. She chuckled cutely and said, "I was just kidding. I was really worried about you. I chatted with your wife every day and comforted her. I told her you're out now and you've been running around trying to pull strings these past few days."
"Prepare the relevant documents this afternoon, and we'll sign the contract tomorrow."
"What kind of contract?" Zhang Fengxia asked, completely bewildered.
"What are we here for?"
Zhang Fengxia thought for a while and said, "Signing the investment contract, this whole thing has been so complicated, I almost forgot about it. Didn't Director Cai say it wouldn't work and even had you arrested? And these past few days, General Manager Gao has been preparing the prospectus. I called him yesterday and said we'd be leaving tomorrow."
"I understand, you can prepare the materials now!" Lu Feng turned around and went back to his room.
I first called Jiang Xiaoyan to let her know I was safe, then I called Gao Zhiwei to find out about the recent market situation. It was still a tense situation, with both sides burning through money. However, several cases had already gone to trial, and most of them were still unresolved issues of jurisdiction.
However, the courts in both locations suggested mediation, hoping that the two parties could sit down and talk things over. The two sides have filed more than 600 lawsuits against each other. To put it bluntly, both sides are just creating trouble for the other.
Moreover, Gao Zhiwei has already contacted several financing companies. The phone conversations involved selling 40% of his equity in exchange for 15 million in financing, but he wants to announce to the public that the amount raised is 150 million.
Although Lu Feng knew that financing was difficult to obtain now, and that Jiaming Foods was in a situation where it was at the mercy of others, he did not expect that 40% of the equity would be exchanged for 15 million, and that he would have to cooperate with the other party in putting on an act. After asking around, he found out that the other party was a listed company, and that even a slight increase in the price would amount to more than 15 million.
It's like getting shares in Jiaming Foods for free.
Tell Gao Zhiwei that the financing can be stopped. Everything will be ready soon. Once this money arrives, it will be enough to cover the costs for a while, and the shortfall will be temporarily covered.
The next few months are the peak season for summer beverage sales, and the other party couldn't afford to wait any longer, so they eventually reached a settlement. As long as they reached a settlement, Jiaming Foods can be considered to have won.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng took a shower and went to bed without even eating dinner that evening.
He slept exceptionally well and woke up at around 7 a.m. Wearing his pajamas, he went to the breakfast restaurant. As soon as he entered, a group of people stared at Lu Feng, even the waiters were staring at him with wide eyes.
"Is it him?"
"That's him!"
"Why were you arrested?"
"Who knows? He looks honest and unassuming, but who knows what he's been up to? I heard from Aunt Liu in the housekeeping department that he probably went to a brothel."
"The woman who came with him said that he was a prostitute, and he's been to several."
"Really?"
"You can get arrested for prostituting one woman? I heard he had seven or eight, ranging from eighteen or nineteen to sixty-eight or sixty-nine, and there were whips, candles, tiger benches, and so on."
"Beast!"
Lu Feng listened to the whispers around him, feeling somewhat speechless. He ignored them and focused on eating. Last night, Gao Zhiwei had told him that public opinion about Jiaming Foods hadn't been very good lately.
When Zhang Fengxia arrived at the restaurant, Lu Feng beckoned to her with his finger and said, "Come here for a moment."
"You went to bed early yesterday, and you look quite energetic today. What's up?" Zhang Fengxia asked as she walked over.
"You told the people here that I was arrested for soliciting prostitution? And that I had seven or eight women, ranging from eighteen or nineteen to sixty-eight or sixty-nine?" Lu Feng squinted at her and said, "And whips and candles too?"
“Didn’t you say before you left that we shouldn’t spread this around? Now everyone in the hotel knows that a perverted customer has been arrested, but nobody knows that the owner of Jiaming Foods has been arrested. Didn’t I handle this well?” Zhang Fengxia looked like she was asking for credit.
Lu Feng gave a bitter laugh. With a secretary like this, how could he not be infamous?
