After hanging up the phone, the two chatted for a while longer. In fact, Xiao Yuan wasn't really interested in this bidding.
But if he could really snatch this project from Enzhe, he would be very happy to do so.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Since both companies were still in the development stage, it was not appropriate for Xiao Yuan and Bai Qinghuai to show themselves, so they sent a trusted confidant instead.
There weren't many people at the bidding meeting, mainly because the locals in Saudi Arabia all knew that the En family had their eyes on this project, so they naturally wouldn't deliberately provoke them to snatch it away.
It would be a loss if it attracted retaliation from the En family.
So most of them just come here to make a show of it.
As for companies in other places, they don't have the capacity to take on such contracts.
Enzhe takes this bidding process quite seriously, and he even came in person today since he was off duty.
He sat naked in the chair, fiddling with his phone, waiting for the final announcement of the bidding results.
This project is already his.
But at the last minute, something unexpected happened. One of the companies actually put up a public bid, and their starting price was slightly lower than his.
If he continues to lower the price, everything will need to be recalculated, which cannot be done in a short time.
Seeing the other party's confident demeanor, Enzhe's subordinate quietly asked whether they should continue bidding.
Enzhe mentally estimated and decided to lower the price by another 0.1%, but the other party was clearly prepared and set the bottom price at 2.5.
Enzhe gritted his teeth and immediately had his subordinates calculate during the break. Half an hour later, he finally received the news to prepare.
As long as the price stays at 2.3, this project can make money.
After thinking for a while, Enzhe set the price at 2.4. Although it wasn't a lot of money, the significance of this project lay in cooperating with the Saudi government, which would bring high returns in the later stages.
However, he wouldn't do a losing deal; if the other party lowered the price again, he would simply give up.
Sure enough, the other party made a phone call upon hearing this point, and then immediately raised their sign to give up.
Xiao Yuan smiled when he heard that Enzhe had won the bid in accordance with his expectations, and the second step officially began.
And his collaboration with Wen Wen officially began.
The project started off smoothly, but halfway through, a power grab suddenly broke out in Saudi Arabia.
Although this kind of thing has happened frequently before, it has never been on such a large scale as this time, and the government has been trying to suppress it for several days without success.
This upstart force has ample funds and, although its combat strength is not high, it is sufficient to sustain them.
The center of the war was precisely where this project was located.
The building, which was already half-built, was reduced to ruins by the bombardment. Although the rebels were eventually suppressed, the En family had to bear the loss themselves.
Not only that, the agreed construction period was delayed in many ways, and the originally planned follow-up contract was completely ruined.
These later projects naturally fell into the hands of Xiao Yuan's company.
Encheol initially only had suspicions, but after his business was repeatedly robbed, he gradually realized that someone was deliberately targeting him.
In China, the only people who have a grudge against him are Xiao Yuan and the Bai family.
The second step of the plan went smoothly. Xiao Yuan also revealed a clue while En Zhe was investigating him, letting En Zhe know that the company belonged to him.
The two sides began to secretly compete with each other. Since private individuals are allowed to carry weapons in Saudi Arabia, fights between the two sides occurred from time to time.
But the more important battlefield is the economy.
The En family truly lived up to their reputation for doing inhumane business; with their abundant funds, after more than two months of back-and-forth dealings, Xiao Yuan's company began to show signs of defeat.
Bai Qinghuai entered the scene at this time.
While Enzhe and Xiao Yuan were battling it out, Bai Qinghuai was quietly developing his power. By then, he had already gained considerable influence, and when Enzhe suffered losses, he unleashed a full-force attack.
Enzhe was forced to use his trump card, but what awaited him was an even more powerful company from Switzerland.
But the Swiss company seemed to be just passing by, giving him a single blow before immediately withdrawing.
Eun-cheol's voice was mostly dishonorable to begin with, and he usually hid in the shadows, but because of this one-against-two situation, he had to bring some of it into the open.
But what followed was media exposure and condemnation from various countries.
Enzhe didn't care about any of this. He was now bloodthirsty and determined to kill Bai Qinghuai and Xiao Yuan.
During the battle, Xiao Yuan and his companion remained in the country, so even if En Zhe wanted to assassinate them, he had no way to do so.
“Cousin, I contacted the Stephen family in America. They said that if we give up a portion of our organ business to them, they will help us completely destroy the Bai and Xiao families, including their influence in China,” Wen Wen said excitedly to En Zhe.
Enzhe's face darkened upon hearing this, and he shoved her aside.
"The organ business is the most important source of income for our En family. Giving it up is equivalent to handing over half of our En family's wealth to others."
"Do you have any other methods now? These two families are completely reckless. Even if you defeat them in the end, they will still tear a piece of flesh from us!" Wen Wen's eyes were burning with fervor.
Enzhe remained silent.
Wen Wen was right; those two were determined to fight to the death this time.
Enzhe wasn't stupid. He knew that Xiao Yuan and Bai Qinghuai dared to do this because they must have had their families' permission. So now he was facing the joint pursuit of two major families in China.
After another month, Enzhe estimated the losses during this period.
Judging from the other party's posture, they have no intention of stopping. If this continues, the En family's losses will definitely be much greater than the profits they made from that organ business.
They found Wenwen and told her they had agreed to the Stephen family's request, but the message they received back was that the business ratio had increased.
Enzhe knew the other party was taking advantage of his misfortune, but he had no other choice in the short term, so he agreed.
The Stephen family acted swiftly, bringing down Xiao Yuan and Bai Qinghuai's company in just two months and successfully expelling them from Saudi Arabia.
Enzhe got a chance to catch his breath, but the company was also in complete disarray, and his heart was filled with resentment.
With Wen Wen fanning the flames from the sidelines, En Zhe felt he absolutely had to avenge this grudge.
But at this very moment, his old nemesis came knocking on his door.
After this commotion, Enzhe was severely weakened. His subordinates reported that the Bai and Xiao families were selling off their stocks, showing signs of a comeback.
With bloodshot eyes, Enzhe took the initiative to contact the Stephen family this time, promising to give up another part of the business and wipe out the Xiao and Bai families in one fell swoop.
Stephen made outrageous demands, wanting to take most of the business. Enzhe knew that if he didn't agree, he would be powerless to fight back when Xiao Yuan and Bai Qinghuai returned.
He's been forced onto this dangerous path; if he doesn't continue, he'll die.
Euncheol agreed.
