But the two were like they were fighting to the death, neither giving an inch in the meeting room, even exchanging trash talk, which shocked everyone watching.
Several hours passed without any agreement being reached, and Chairman Sakata remained silent. Both claimed it was for the company's good, but no one knew who was truly acting in the company's best interest!
In the afternoon, in the chairman's office, Sakata called the two of them over and talked for a long time. In the end, they decided not to sell them and just leave them there.
In the evening, Lu Feng received a call from the overseas assets department of the Rohm Group, who regretfully informed him that they had decided not to sell ownership of Ruixin Laboratory.
Upon hearing this answer, Lu Feng froze on the spot, inwardly exclaiming, "Just as I thought!"
"Not selling anymore?" Jin Tingting was dumbfounded and said, "Isn't business supposed to be a give-and-take? Is it because the price is too low?"
“We can negotiate the price, it’s not about the price.” Liu Cheng’s expression was also not good. He sighed and said, “Who knows what might have happened.”
"The internal balance is impossible!" Lu Feng had already guessed this outcome; most international acquisitions stalled midway through negotiations for this very reason.
"So what do we do now?" Jin Tingting looked at Lu Feng and said, "Should we go back?"
"Go back?" Lu Feng stroked his hair with some worry. This was not the result he wanted. He said in a deep voice, "Help him solve the problem. Where are the consultants? Call them over."
A few moments later, several people from the consulting firm walked in and greeted Lu Feng, "Hello, Mr. Lu!"
"How's the data collection going?" Lu Feng asked.
The man in the lead looked embarrassed and started rummaging through his bag, which was about the size of a regular shoulder bag. He searched for several minutes.
"What are you looking for? Why have you been looking for so long?" Liu Cheng asked, puzzled.
Lu Feng snorted coldly and said, "Making excuses!"
"I forgot to bring it!"
"Forgot to bring it? Didn't you ever hear the saying when you were in school? It means you didn't write it!" Lu Feng stared at him with a gloomy face, wanting to get angry, but then thought better of it, there was no point in scolding him.
Everyone at the scene was at a loss. Having received this response, they could only pack their things and go home. This trip had been a complete waste.
"We'll talk about it tomorrow!" Lu Feng stood up and walked towards his room without saying a word.
Back in his room, Lu Feng called Su Yourong directly. An assistant answered the phone and said that she was attending a banquet and would call her back later.
The back garden of Su Yourong's villa was brightly lit, and the people present were dressed in gorgeous clothes, raising their glasses frequently. The atmosphere was wonderful, just like any other day at her villa.
"President Su, President Lu is looking for you!" a woman in her thirties whispered in her ear.
"Excuse me, I have an international call coming in. Please excuse me for a moment." Su Yourong smiled slightly, apologized to everyone, and then gracefully left.
Several wealthy men at the scene watched her leave and muttered, "After attending a high-society business party, she's got international affairs to attend to now."
"Didn't they say that party was fake?"
"I've also heard it's fake!"
Mr. Hou, who was holding a wine glass, happened to pass by and overheard this. He walked over and immediately retorted, "Fake? Then why weren't we invited? It's just some people being sour grapes, a bunch of nouveau riche!"
The people present were furious when they heard this. They had only gone to a party, and these people came back acting like they were superior.
"Pah! You dog!" someone spat and said, "It's already 1994, wait another three years, and get out of here!"
"Hmph, noble? You'd be unwanted even if you went there to be a dog!"
Su Yourong went upstairs and called Lu Feng. As soon as the call connected, Lu Feng's gloomy voice came from the other end: "Tell me the hell how much you paid to hire that consulting firm!"
“I spent five million!” Su Yourong said without the slightest hesitation.
"Of the five million, you'll pocket four million nine hundred thousand yourself, won't you?" Lu Feng said irritably. "Can't you do anything right?"
"Don't scold me! I think about you every day. I heard you call me just now, so I rushed over, but you gave me a good scolding. I... I feel so wronged!" Su Yourong said, feeling incredibly aggrieved.
"Don't give me that crap. Let me tell you, this acquisition went awry so badly, and I'm not insulting you!" Lu Feng shouted into the phone, "I'll go to Hong Kong and scatter your ashes, you hear me? Tell me now, honestly, aren't those law firms and accounting firms also shoddy?"
