The Panasonic representative couldn't help but say, "Mr. Lu, you've got the market! Let's work together and share the rewards."
“That’s right!” Elmi said to Lu Feng, “Isn’t that why we’re sitting here today?”
"Look at you, so naive! Do you really think that just because Motorola falls, a huge market will be vacated and we small businesses will be able to survive?" Lu Feng said to Elmi. "No! It's not like that. When one Motorola falls, another Motorola will rise, and the next one will be born among us. When our common enemy dies, we'll be surrounded by enemies. Do you think Jiafeng Electronics and Nokia are a match for the companies here?"
Lu Feng's words were too blunt, leaving Elmi somewhat at a loss. Competition was an inevitable outcome, but cooperation was needed now.
"Lu Feng, what exactly do you want to say?" Fukuda asked in a deep voice.
"It's very simple. As I just said, Motorola will hand over the pager market in mainland China to me. I'll crush them, and I might even voluntarily share half of the market share with everyone. All I want is cooperation in research and development." Lu Feng stated his requirements.
Cai Tianlun couldn't take it anymore. When did Jiafeng Electronics become able to bargain with them?
Even setting aside joint research and development, just licensing some patents to them would be enough to make Jiafeng Electronics rich. So many companies are trying to curry favor with them, isn't it all for these technological benefits?
They don't sell to just anyone.
“Lu Feng, I still think you need to understand your company. There are some things small businesses shouldn’t say, especially when it comes to bargaining!” Cai Tianlun said in a deep voice.
"Oh? Is that so? Mr. Cai is being quite blunt now? We're not good enough for Nokia?" Lu Feng said grimly, "Then I've wasted my dinner tonight. Since we can't cooperate, let's see each other in the market!"
Fukuda almost burst out laughing when he heard this. Lu Feng actually threatened three international companies. It felt like an ant saying to an elephant, "Since we can't negotiate, don't blame me for tripping you up."
Elmi grew anxious and said, "Mr. Lu, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with me, does it?"
Lu Feng turned to look at her, somewhat exasperated, and said, "You think it has nothing to do with you? Didn't you hear what they meant? In their eyes, small businesses like ours are just tools. I know you're young and don't want to offend them, but do you think they'll respect you unless you get slapped in the face?"
Elmi did feel very uncomfortable at tonight's dinner party, as if she were just there to keep someone company, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Elmi did not refute Lu Feng's words, which in itself was a form of agreement!
“Since you don’t want to contribute anything and just want to find a couple of henchmen to fight for you, I don’t think there’s any need to continue this discussion. The forum is tomorrow, we can talk then.” Lu Feng stood up and said to Elmi, “I suddenly remembered something.”
"Huh? What's wrong?" Elmi asked, puzzled.
"Staying up late is bad for your skin. The forum starts tomorrow, and there's a lot to do. Why don't you go home and get some rest?" Lu Feng said to her.
“It’s getting late, so I’ll take my leave now,” Elmi said, standing up.
The group simply nodded and exchanged a few perfunctory words, without even standing up.
Stepping out of the private room, Lu Feng asked Elmi, "Where do you live? I'll take you home."
"No need, I drove here myself, thank you!" Elmi was very polite. She could tell that Lu Feng was always very close to her, and his ambiguous smile made her wary.
"It's alright. It's certainly not easy for a young woman like you in a foreign country. But don't worry about me. I have a good reputation, and you can tell from my gentle smile that I'm a good person." Lu Feng smiled at Elmi after saying this and added, "Call me if you have any difficulties, and I'll do my best to help you!"
As Lu Feng spoke, he handed over a business card.
"Thank you, thank you so much," Elmi said politely.
"It's alright. Also, don't get too close to those guys in the room. Nokia is a company with a long history; who knows what they're up to?" Lu Feng said candidly. "The reason I said those things earlier is because I believe that cooperation between us is the best approach!"
