Lu Feng had his own theory about negotiation and foreign investment. This theory was very perfect. Simply put, it was that foreign capital used the dollar's status to acquire patents in developing countries.
They would gain the most with the least cost. Lu Feng talked to Jiang Wanmeng about several aspects, including international monetary policy, Wall Street investment strategies, and the development direction of the world's high-tech industries.
Sitting to the side, Feng Zhiyao was inwardly amazed. Lu Feng seemed to have an extraordinary understanding of things that ordinary people couldn't access.
Lu Feng said all this to President Jiang simply to tell him that the other party was extremely wealthy and there was no need to worry about scaring them away with too high a price. With such a thick skin, Lu Feng's little knife couldn't possibly cut them.
After listening to Lu Feng's analysis, President Jiang suddenly understood and exclaimed, "I never expected President Lu to have such a broad perspective. I always thought that businessmen were only interested in profit, but I underestimated them."
“Businessmen like me are few and far between. Most businessmen are like the ones you’re describing,” Lu Feng said.
Feng Zhiyao sat to the side, his eyes gleaming with a strange light, staring at Lu Feng as if he were looking at a completely different person.
It was already getting dark outside. Lu Feng glanced at the time; it was 6:30 in the evening. He said, "Since we're going to a dinner party, let's go ahead first, so Mayor Wang won't be waiting."
"good."
The group went downstairs and took a car to the hotel, the Jianguo Hotel, the designated hotel for municipal hospitality. Along the way, Lu Feng and President Jiang talked a lot, including their views on the future.
Lu Feng knew very well that there was only one way to gain Jiang Wanmeng's complete trust: conquest!
Only by completely conquering this person in terms of ideas and vision can he stop questioning Lu Feng and following him down the same path to the bitter end.
Lu Feng may not understand technology, but he knows more about future industry development trends than anyone else, especially domestic R&D, the drawbacks of state-owned enterprises, social reforms, and other aspects.
Throughout the journey, President Jiang kept praising the solution. Although there were some aspects he didn't understand at all, he still knew the ins and outs. Lu Feng offered some of his own solutions, and upon closer inspection, even the experts didn't have such good ideas.
After getting out of the car, President Jiang's gaze towards Lu Feng completely changed. It was as if this young man held the world in his heart, including the universe, and many of his views made even the erudite President Jiang secretly exclaim in admiration.
Indeed, no one's success comes easily; everyone has some skills.
"Mr. Feng, this way please." Lu Feng greeted Feng Zhiyao.
Feng Zhiyao walked over and saw that Jiang Wanmeng's gaze towards Lu Feng had changed; it seemed to have many more little stars in it, containing reverence.
Feng Zhiyao could sense President Jiang's feelings for Lu Feng, because at times, Lu Feng did indeed possess an unparalleled charm, but President Jiang's appearance clearly indicated that she had been captivated.
He was quite surprised. How did Lu Feng manage to turn an engineer into his fanboy in just half an hour?
After entering the lobby, we were led into the elevator by a supervisor. General Manager Jiang reminded us, "Brother, Mayor Wang values VCDs very much. You should talk to him about it later."
"Will Smith's team come?" Lu Feng asked.
"They should come. With such a big incident today, the municipal government hopes to take the lead, act as a peacemaker, and resolve the matter," General Manager Jiang replied.
Lu Feng nodded, already having a general idea of what to expect from this dinner.
Upon entering the private room, Mayor Wang had not yet arrived, but the seven members of Smith's team were already there. They saw Lu Feng walk in, but simply sat down and watched.
Smith sized up Lu Feng as if he were seeing him for the first time, looking him over from head to toe.
Lu Feng pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Smith. There were seven people on the other side and three on his side, ten people staring at each other expressionlessly, without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the private room was extremely tense, as if they were about to start fighting at any moment.
Lu Feng and Smith stared intently at each other, neither blinking nor looking away, their gazes filled with aggression.
Feng Zhiyao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at. After less than a minute, he looked away. This kind of eye contact is a true test of one's mental fortitude.
As for President Jiang, he was defeated even faster. He had personally talked to Smith before and made a promise to him. He was not a businessman and still had a sense of shame. After making the promise, he came to Lu Feng to negotiate. Naturally, he did not dare to look directly at him.
All seven people stared at Lu Feng, who leaned back in his chair and retorted sharply. The scene was quiet for a full five minutes as Lu Feng stared at them and moved the plate in his hand.
The crisp sound of a spoon hitting a plate broke the atmosphere, and the seven people quickly stared at the plate, their faces full of vigilance.
"What are you afraid of? Do you think I'd throw plates at you?" Lu Feng asked with a sneer.
After Feng Zhiyao finished translating, Smith paused for a moment and said, "President Lu, you have your own company and businesses. You should be very busy and shouldn't be here."
“I can go anywhere. The company is managed by others. No matter who you contact, it won’t change anything. There are only two conditions: agree or refuse. It’s that simple,” Lu Feng said in a deep voice.
"We do not accept threats!!!" Smith stared at Lu Feng and raised his voice.
“I’m not threatening you, this is business. When you come to our territory, you have to follow our rules,” Lu Feng retorted.
“I’ve seen your file, and I know you’re a damn bastard!” Smith shook his head and said, “But your tricks won’t work on me.”
"Really?" Lu Feng chuckled, and mouthed in English, "I'll break your legs and then heal you."
