Lu Feng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. Even now, this woman still thinks her appearance is worth so much money.
"If only you had done this sooner! Now, it's too late!" Lu Feng adjusted his posture and said, "Let me tell you this, you have no right to talk to me now. Let your dad talk to me."
"Can this matter be handled without alerting headquarters? As long as sales can be restored as soon as possible, we can discuss it. If things escalate, it won't be good for Jiafeng's development. If you want to expand internationally, we can help you. At the very least, we can put in a good word for you and give you some support." Elmi guided Lu Feng, afraid that he might resort to a desperate measure.
"It's too difficult to expand internationally, and I'm tired of it. I don't want to expand anymore. It's fine as it is," Lu Feng said indifferently.
Elmi didn't know if he was telling the truth or not, and her heart sank. She hurriedly said, "I can help you urge them to expedite the matter of Ruixin Laboratory. Everything is negotiable. Why make things like this?"
"Yeah, you understand that principle, so why didn't you say so earlier? I've been a bit stressed lately, so I'm planning to relax. Don't call me anymore." Lu Feng hung up the phone after saying that.
Lu Feng knew Elmi's current state all too well. What was needed now was to let them experience his importance, not just Elmi and Monica, but also the Nokia headquarters executives, to feel that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Businesses interact just like people interact. There's a saying that a kind person is often bullied and a good horse is often ridden. The same applies to cooperation between businesses. Lu Feng wanted to let the other party know that no matter what kind of international company they are, he is very important to them now.
Elmi made several calls but no one answered. She slumped into her seat, realizing that things had come to this point and Lu Feng would not get what she wanted. This matter was far from over.
Whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed anyway. Elmi's heart sank. Since it was already destined, she might as well plan ahead and push all the problems onto Monica and President Zhang.
Elmi picked up the phone and called her father, explaining the situation in detail. The two discussed it over the phone and came up with a plan.
...........
A week ago, Zhenkun found a suitable opportunity to mention to Mr. Feng that Lu Feng wanted to raise funds again. After learning about it, Mr. Feng didn't say anything and just stood there for half an hour. Two days later, after reviewing the mid-year financial report, he told Zhenkun: "If he can raise funds, then he can go ahead and do it. But in the contract we signed before, we have a clause on priority such as equity. We must make this clear to him."
"Don't worry, we definitely want the priority equity. We included that clause in the contract beforehand, which was for today," Zhenkun replied.
"So do you think he can succeed?" Mr. Feng asked, leaning back in his chair.
Zhenkun pondered for a while and said, "I really don't know. If he still focuses his financing target on Hong Kong, I'm afraid there won't be any chance. Jiafeng Electronics' valuation is too high right now. If he can find a suitable investor on Wall Street, it's not impossible. Didn't Goldman Sachs ask about it a while ago? Do you think it's possible?"
Mr. Feng sighed and shook his head, clearly not optimistic about Goldman Sachs' investment in Jiafeng. He said with some distress, "Putting aside whether Goldman Sachs approves of such a high valuation, they will definitely agree on a listing time after investing. Given Jiafeng's current equity structure, would Lu Feng dare to gamble? Let's not think too much about it and deal with it when the time comes."
"What about Lu Feng asking us to invest money?"
"I won't invest! I've spent more money on him than on my three sons combined, and people outside are saying he's my illegitimate son." Mr. Feng stood up angrily and walked out, trembling.
Seeing this, Zhenkun hurriedly went to help him. The nanny outside pushed the wheelchair in. Recently, since Mr. Feng returned from the hospital, his health has obviously deteriorated. He rarely cares about the company's affairs anymore, and Feng Zhiyao has been handling most of the business.
Rumors have been circulating among the wealthy for almost half a year that Lu Feng is Mr. Feng's illegitimate son. When his eldest son, who is away from home, heard about this, he called Mr. Feng to inquire, which infuriated him.
Five days ago, Zhuang Yuntian received a call from Wall Street, informing him that Eddie Lambert wanted to speak with him. Although Zhuang Yuntian didn't know what had happened, he had a vague feeling that his life was about to change.
During the phone call, Lambert inquired about the reception he had given to Jiafeng Electronics, and then asked him a lot about Jiafeng's development and Lu Feng himself.
Finally, he was asked to return on the latest flight to personally address the matter.
There's a steakhouse called Sirloin Steakhouse on the corner of Wall Street. It's definitely the most famous restaurant on Wall Street because celebrities like Buffett, Soros, and Lambert all like to have lunch there.
Zhuang Yuntian changed into his best suit and arrived at the restaurant half an hour early. He was still a little nervous about being met by the group's senior executive in this way, especially since the other party was the renowned Lambert in the investment world.
At 11:40, a man in his sixties walked in, greeted the waiter in a friendly manner, walked to the booth by the window, looked Zhuang Yuntian up and down and said, "Looks like I'm late."
Startled by the sudden voice, Zhuang Yuntian stood up abruptly and said, "Hello!"
"Ni! Hao! Ah!" Lambert smiled and pulled out a chair, saying, "That's all the Chinese I know. Please sit down. Don't be nervous. It's just that you're having dinner with an old man. It's nothing."
