It was fine if he didn't retaliate, but once he did, it would be like a thunderbolt, like fire!
That was Li Du's character. Compared to before, his temperament had changed a lot. His bottom line had changed too. He wouldn't get angry easily and wouldn't be easily provoked.
But even a man made of clay had a temper. He wasn't a masochist. How could he not retaliate when he was bullied? Kelly Anderson had mocked him a few times. He couldn't take it anymore!
Kelly Anderson was the most common American man. He was arrogant, arrogant, rude, and liked to bully others.
Especially because he was the boss. He was used to bullying his employees. He would subconsciously put on the airs of a boss when dealing with ordinary people.
His employees were willing to compromise, but Li Du wouldn't. He wasn't going to spoil this guy.
Kelly Anderson was infuriated. His face darkened and he said, "Hey, buddy, you're stirring up trouble!"
Since they had shed all pretense of cordiality, Li Du did not stand on ceremony. He faced Anderson and pointed at Conrad Anthony. "I'm trying to pick a fight. If you can, come and beat me up. But before you do, you should ask this kid first. He knows how to fight."
Anderson was furious. He went forward to push Li Du. Bell and the others quickly came over to pull them apart.
Kapoli said unhappily, "Hey, what are you guys doing? Mr. Li, your words are a little too — "
"It has nothing to do with Li. It's my problem today," Bell interrupted him. Bell interrupted him. He pushed Li Du away and continued, "George, Kelly, Li, this is not an arena, and we are not barbarians. Friendship is more important."
Anderson said loudly, "I said we're friends, but what did he say? He asked me if I deserved it. Listen to me, listen to me! "
Li Du spread his hands and said, "Sorry, I'm a straightforward person. I like to speak the truth. If this offended your pride, then please forgive me. I'll be more tactful next time."
Anderson was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He shouted, "Listen to what bullsh * t he's talking about! I say, you're really an arrogant b * stard. Do you know who I am? You're a garbage collector, and you're telling me this? "
Li Du immediately said, "The ones who are picking up the trash are the two beside you. Didn't George Anthony tell you? I'm already in another line of work. Besides, according to you, Mr. Bell, Mr. Johnson, and so on are all garbage collectors. "
Bell pushed him back and said, "Hey, Li, give me some face and calm down, will you?"
Li Du nodded and did not say another word. However, Anderson was relentless.
"There's no need to feign ignorance and change the target. I'm talking about you, Chinese. You sure are a sharp-tongued b * stard!" Andrewson said angrily. "I'm the boss of KK Rainbow Bird Company. Who are you? Who do you think you are? "
Since the other party wanted to argue with him, Li Du decided to play along.
He looked at the others with a blank expression and asked, "What is KK Rainbow Bird Company?"
The Playboy shook his head cooperatively. "I don't know. Maybe it's a company that produces clothes, shoes, and socks? For example, companies like AE American Eagle? "
Joel laughed and said, "Stop mocking Kelly. KK Rainbow Bird is an e-commerce company that specializes in online trading and offline delivery services. It's very famous in Seattle. However, they don't really like to do business with Chinese and Asians. Maybe that's why you guys haven't heard of it. "
He and Kelly Anderson were competitors, so he was happy to see the other party make a fool of himself. His words were more of a provocation than an explanation.
After hearing his words, Li Du glanced at Andrewson and said, "Oh, an e-commerce company. Sorry, I don't know much about this industry."
Andrewson immediately said arrogantly, "That only shows that you're ignorant!"
Li Du said, "No, it's because I'm too busy with work. After all, I'm the biggest shareholder of Harry Winston, Inc. Some time ago, I was busy acquiring new shares of the company, so I didn't know much about KK Rainbow Bird Company in Seattle."
He deliberately emphasized the words "you guys" and "KK Rainbow Bird." The sarcasm in his words was self-evident.
Andrewson was even angrier. Just as he was about to retort, he suddenly realized what Li Du had said.
He looked at Li Du in surprise. "What? You're the biggest shareholder of Harry Winston, Inc? "
Li Du said, "You know about Harry Winston, Inc? Well, you're indeed not ignorant. "
Hearing this, Andrewson was even more shocked. Bell and the others were also shocked. They did not know much about Li Du's situation in the luxury and jewelry industries. Li Du was also relatively low-key. Not many people in the outside world knew that he was a major shareholder.
Andrewson looked at Anthony, who was equally shocked. He said, "You're lying."
Carberry was the COO of Boeing, a prominent figure in the American upper class. He had a rich network of contacts. He could ask any boss in the luxury industry and get the answer.
Soon, he looked at his phone and said, "Mr. Li is indeed a shareholder of Harry Winston, Inc. However, you're the second largest shareholder, right? You have less shares than Mr. Cole Winston. "
Li Du said simply, "I've just completed the change of 4% of the shares. There are still some changes in the negotiations."
It did not matter whether he was the first or second largest shareholder of Harry Winston, Inc. No matter which one it was, his net worth was enough for everyone present to look up to, including Carberry.
Boeing was a behemoth in the financial industry. Just one of its fingers weighed more than Harry Winston, Inc. However, as the COO, Carberry was just a senior employee. He did not have any shares in the company and only received a salary and bonuses.
The atmosphere suddenly changed. The Anthonys were shocked, and Andrewson was a little embarrassed.
However, like a traditional American man, he was very prideful. At this time, he stubbornly said, "Looks like you're very lucky. Where did you earn the money from? Did you find a warehouse full of gold? To be able to buy a large amount of shares in Harry Winston, you're very lucky! "
Li Du said, "Luck? Sir, if you manage the company with such an attitude, sooner or later you'll go bankrupt. Luck is not something you can rely on. I got to where I am with my ability. "
Andrewson sneered disdainfully, "Ha, ability …"
Li Du could not be bothered to listen to him continue. He interrupted him directly, "Listen, we were having a good time together today, chatting and playing basketball, but you just had to find some conflict and cause trouble. I'm not the same kind of person as you. You became the boss purely by luck, understand?
"For example, this is my first time coming to a golf course. This is my first time coming to this place, but I found a job with an annual salary of at least 100,000.
"Of course, such a job is meaningless to me. However, if I want to, I can immediately help some people make money. This is the difference between ability and luck, understand?"
