Zhong Ling's arrival forced Chen Xing to put this matter aside for the time being. After lingering in front of several investment projects for a while, Zhong Ling walked over to him.
Mayor Chen, did you go to the hospital for a check-up this morning? Seeing that there was someone beside Chen Xing, Zhong Ling addressed Chen Xing by his title.
It was nothing. He would be fine when he got up in the morning. There was no need to go to the hospital for a check-up. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. Now he only felt pain at the back of his head and neck. Chen Xing estimated that he would be fine in a few days. He had no time to go to the hospital at all.
It was better to go to the hospital for a check-up. Zhong Ling said with concern.
Mayor Chen, are you not feeling well? Hearing Zhong Ling's words, You Quan also asked with concern.
No, I also met the kidnappers last night. See, I was a little injured. Chen Xing said with a smile.
Mayor Chen, you met the kidnappers last night? As soon as You Quan heard Chen Xing's words, his eyes widened. His room was next to Chen Xing's. Although he saw Chen Xing return to the hotel late last night, he didn't hear anything wrong with Chen Xing. You Quan didn't expect that Chen Xing would have such an experience.
Yes, the scene I saw on TV is happening in real life. Last night, I went to buy a lottery ticket. Maybe I could win the prize. Chen Xing smiled and turned to Zhong Ling. Zhong Ling, you have to be careful. You have to deal with the internal affairs of the company well, so that you don't encounter such a thing again.
I believe that similar things will not happen again in the future. Zhong Ling smiled indifferently.
Because there were other people standing next to them, the two just had a brief conversation and didn't say much. Chen Xing seemed absent-minded. It wasn't until Zheng Jue came in this direction with a middle-aged man surrounded by a large group of people that Chen Xing was reminded by You Quan, who was next to him.
Mayor Chen, that seemed to be Li Jiayuan, the richest man in Guangdong Province. You Quan took a closer look at the middle-aged man next to Zheng Jue. His expression was rather shocked as he said to Chen Xing beside him.
After You Quan finished speaking, Xiao Yuanqing, who had been busy in the convention center, jogged over. He told Chen Xing in advance that Zheng Jue was accompanying the chairman of the board of directors of Yuan Da Group, Li Jiayuan.
Chen Xing was slightly surprised. He focused his attention and looked at the middle-aged man who was walking over. Then, he stepped forward to greet him.
Mr. Li, this is our city's Mayor Chen. Zheng Jue smiled and introduced them to Li Jiayuan.
Mayor Chen, nice to meet you. Li Jiayuan shook hands with Chen Xing confidently and calmly.
Mr. Li, nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you. Chen Xing smiled and nodded. He quietly looked at Li Jiayuan and nodded to himself. When one's wealth reached a certain level, their identity and status also determined that they could stand at a certain height. Compared to ordinary people, they indeed had their own temperament and poise.
You Quan, who was standing to the side, looked at Li Jiayuan with an equally excited expression. People like him, who could be considered a tycoon in Nanzhou City, were really not worth mentioning in front of Li Jiayuan. Li Jiayuan was not only the richest man in Guangdong Province, but also one of the top five richest people in the country. He had a great reputation in the country's business world. A businessman like him, who only had a certain amount of fame in Nanzhou City, could not compare.
Miss Zheng, you said you came to Yangcheng to do business. Don't tell me you're here to discuss a collaboration with Mr. Li? Chen Xing looked at Zheng Jue with anticipation in his eyes. If he could introduce Yuan Da Group to Nanzhou, it would be great news.
Mayor Chen's eyes were like torches. Zheng Jue replied with a smile. Our company really hopes to cooperate with the Yuan Group. Coincidentally, our city is also holding an investment promotion meeting. When I told Director Li about it, he showed great interest and said that he would like to come and take a look.
Mr. Li, on behalf of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, I sincerely welcome you to invest. Chen Xing said enthusiastically to Li Jiayuan. All the worries in his heart were thrown to the side. If Yuan Da Group could invest in Nanzhou, then it would be a great achievement. Even if it was Zheng Jue's company that was discussing a collaboration with Yuan Da Group, he would still be able to get some political credit.
Nanzhou City's economy has been developing rapidly in recent years. Our Yuan Da Group has long intended to enter Nanzhou. In a few days, our group will come to Nanzhou for an inspection. At that time, we hope to have a pleasant collaboration with Nanzhou City. Li Jiayuan smiled.
As long as Mr. Li is willing, then we will have the opportunity to cooperate. Chen Xing smiled.
Chen Xing was so engrossed in entertaining Li Jiayuan that he forgot about Zhong Ling beside him. Zhong Ling left quietly after receiving a phone call. She took a car to a club not far from the Zhao Group. Chen Junhe was waiting in a room in the club.
Seeing Zhong Ling enter, Chen Junhe stood up with a smile. Miss Zhong Ling, I thought you wouldn't come.
Since Mr. Chen said he wanted to discuss a business deal with me, then I have to come and see if it's true. Zhong Ling glanced at Chen Junhe. His smile, which he thought was elegant, was as disgusting as eating a dead fly in her eyes.
Fortunately, Miss Zhong Ling came. Otherwise, I think Miss Zhong Ling would definitely regret it. Chen Junhe smiled and gestured for Zhong Ling to sit. What would Miss Zhong Ling like to drink?
No need, I brought my own water. Let's get straight to the point. Zhong Ling stared at Chen Junhe. She brought a bottle of mineral water to drink. After what happened last night, Zhong Ling maintained a certain vigilance towards everything. Although she was a little paranoid, it was not wrong to be cautious. Chen Junhe and Zhao Qiang were wearing the same pants. She was kidnapped by Zhao Qiang last night. Who knew if Chen Junhe would collude with Zhao Qiang to do something. If the water or drink was drugged or something, then she would be in trouble again. Zhong Ling didn't want any more accidents to happen.
Miss Zhong Ling was very careful. Chen Junhe smiled and looked at Zhong Ling. Well, in order to show that I have no ill intentions towards Miss Zhong Ling, I don't want to be too attentive, lest Miss Zhong Ling thinks that I really have ill intentions. If that happens, I will really be wronged.
After Chen Junhe finished speaking, his expression quickly changed. "Miss Zhong Ling, I heard about what Zhao Qiang did last night. I deeply sympathize with your encounter. Zhao Qiang and I can be considered old friends. Although I used to think that he was a bit dissolute, doing things casually and doing whatever he wanted, I didn't expect him to be such a daring person to actually do such a thing to Miss Zhong Ling. Fortunately, Miss Zhong Ling didn't suffer any harm. Otherwise, my heart would definitely ache. I have always admired Miss Zhong Ling in my heart. Last night, some of the things I said might have been a bit too much, but that really stemmed from my deep admiration for Miss Zhong Ling …
Mr. Chen, I think we should get down to business. There's no need to talk about this. Zhong Ling curled her lips and interrupted Chen Junhe. Listening to Chen Junhe's words, Zhong Ling felt goosebumps all over her body.
The reason why Zhong Ling came over today was because Chen Junhe had told her about the 20% shares in her hands on the phone. Chen Junhe said that he was willing to buy her shares, which made Zhong Ling a little tempted. What Zhao Qiang did last night made her extremely disappointed in Zhao Qiang, and it could even be said that she hated him to the bone. Now that Zhao Qiang had been arrested, it was obviously impossible for Zhao Qiang to buy her shares. Moreover, Zhao Qiang's behavior last night had made it clear that he didn't want to take out money to buy back the shares. He only wanted to take them back for free. Zhong Ling had completely given up on Zhao Qiang. Even if she sold the shares to someone else now, it wouldn't go against Zhao Gaopeng's original intentions. She wanted to transfer the shares to Zhao Qiang first, but Zhao Qiang did it himself. How could she be blamed?
It seems that Miss Zhong Ling has always been prejudiced against me. I'm really sad in my heart. Really, Miss Zhong Ling, don't think that what I said is hypocritical. I didn't lie about my feelings for Miss Zhong Ling. When I first saw Miss Zhong Ling, I fell in love at first sight. Regardless of whether Miss Zhong Ling believes it or not, these are my heartfelt words. Chen Junhe said with a sincere face.
Seeing the impatience on Zhong Ling's face, Chen Junhe smiled bitterly and said, "Well, if Miss Zhong Ling doesn't like to hear this, then I'll get straight to business. I have no other purpose for asking you to come here. I just want to buy the 20% shares in your hands. I promised Zhao Qiang that I would use 500 million yuan to invest in the Zhao Group in exchange for 20% of the shares. Now that Zhao Qiang has done such a thing, I really despise people like him and disdain to be associated with scum like him. I don't want to talk about cooperation with him, so I want to buy the shares in Miss Zhong Ling's hands now.
Is it really because of this that Mr. Chen wants to buy my shares? Also, I want to ask Mr. Chen a question. I hope Mr. Chen can answer honestly. I wonder if Mr. Chen has another purpose for doing this? Zhong Ling stared at Chen Junhe closely, for fear of missing any expression on his face.
Miss Zhong Ling's prejudice against me is really too deep. Is the word "bad" written on my face? Or do I look like a sinister villain? Why does Miss Zhong Ling always doubt my motives? I want to buy the shares of the Zhao Group because I'm optimistic about the development potential of the Zhao Group. This is just a normal business investment. I don't know why Miss Zhong Ling is so suspicious? Miss Zhong Ling asked me that just now. In fact, I also want to ask Miss Zhong Ling why you always doubt my sincerity. Doesn't Miss Zhong Ling know that it's very hurtful?
Maybe I'm too suspicious. If it hurts Mr. Chen, then I'm sorry. Zhong Ling shrugged and said apologetically. She also knew that her words of suspicion were indeed very disrespectful to others. However, although she apologized, Zhong Ling still couldn't completely trust Chen Junhe in her heart. Although she had only met Chen Junhe a few times, a woman's sixth sense made her feel that Chen Junhe was untrustworthy. After thinking about it seriously for a while, Zhong Ling smiled self-deprecatingly.
After thinking about it seriously for a while, Zhong Ling laughed at herself. Why should she worry about the Zhao Group now? She was about to leave the Zhao Group. Now, the Zhao Group was Zhao Qiang's company. Zhao Qiang didn't care at all and ordered people to kidnap and threaten her. At the last moment last night, he almost made people do something to her … Every time Zhong Ling thought about this, the anger in her body would burn. Zhao Qiang really disappointed her too much, so much so that she hated him. At this point, why should she think too much about the Zhao Group?
Even if I sold my shares to Chen Junhe, the other 30% would automatically be transferred to Zhao Qiang's name. Zhao Qiang would still have 50% of the shares, and he would still have absolute control of the Zhao Group. The Zhao Group would still be the Zhao Family's company, and I wouldn't let Gao Peng down. Moreover, I have done this much, and I don't think Gao Peng will blame me in the underworld. Even if I sell my shares to Chen Junhe, he can't do anything with 20% of the shares. Moreover, my prejudice against him is just my wishful thinking. Maybe he really doesn't have any malicious intentions. As he said, it's just a normal business investment. Zhong Ling was silent, thinking about this in her heart. Her attitude had loosened. In fact, since she answered the phone, she had the intention of selling the shares to Chen Junhe. Even if she didn't have to sell it, she was a little tempted. She wanted to start her own business, and she also needed a lot of money. She couldn't count on Zhao Qiang, so selling it to Chen Junhe was also an option.
What is Miss Zhong Ling thinking? What are you thinking about? Chen Junhe saw that Zhong Ling didn't say anything, so he asked.
You can buy it, but as for the price, we have to discuss it again. Zhong Ling made up her mind and said.
Discuss the price again? Miss Zhong Ling, what do you mean? Chen Junhe was stunned and looked at Zhong Ling in confusion.
If Mr. Chen wanted to buy it, he had to pay 600 million yuan. Zhong Ling looked indifferent.
600 million yuan? Miss Zhong Ling, isn't it a little unkind of you to do this? We agreed on 500 million yuan before. Chen Junhe was a little angry.
500 million yuan? Did Mr. Chen remember wrongly? Did we talk about this price before? 500 million yuan was the capital you discussed with Zhao Qiang to invest in the Zhao Group, not with me.
Even if I didn't talk to you, the 20% shares are only worth 500 million yuan. Miss Zhong Ling, you added 100 million yuan for no reason. Even robbing a bank can't make money faster than you. Chen Junhe said coldly.
Mr. Chen knows that he didn't talk to me. How could he say such childish words? You talked to Zhao Qiang about the price according to your evaluation of the Zhao Group. Zhao Qiang agrees with your evaluation of the Zhao Group, but it doesn't mean that I agree. Do you think the entire Zhao Group is only worth 2.5 billion yuan? But I think it's more than that. I think it's worth at least 3 billion yuan. Just as Mr. Chen is very optimistic about the potential of the Zhao Group, a company's development potential and future prospects should also be included in its evaluation. I don't think it's a loss for you to ask Mr. Chen to add 100 million yuan. Zhong Ling said calmly. In business, one should be ruthless and know how to seize the opponent's mentality to create and save value for oneself. Zhong Ling grasped Chen Junhe's mentality, so how could she not create more value for herself?
Miss Zhong Ling sold it to Zhao Qiang for 500 million yuan, so she sold it to me for 600 million yuan. Does Miss Zhong Ling think that I'm a fool who can be easily exploited? Chen Junhe sneered. At this time, there was no so-called love in his heart.
How do you know that I sold it to Zhao Qiang for 500 million yuan? Zhong Ling stared at Chen Junhe vigilantly.
How could I not know? Zhao Qiang came to me last night to borrow 500 million yuan, saying that he wanted to buy back the 20% shares from you. Of course, I knew. A trace of unnaturalness flashed across Chen Junhe's face, and he explained again. Zhao Qiang didn't show any abnormalities last night, but I didn't expect that he would suddenly do that kind of thing to Miss Zhong Ling today. This was unexpected. Otherwise, I would have informed Miss Zhong Ling in time.
Oh. Zhong Ling stared at Chen Junhe for a long time, but she couldn't see anything from Chen Junhe's face. Zhong Ling looked away and said, "The price I sold to Zhao Qiang was Zhao Qiang's price. I have a relationship with the Zhao family, so the price I gave to Zhao Qiang was naturally because of our relationship. And the price I sold to you was the price I gave you. Mr. Chen is also a businessman. Don't you know that doing business also depends on the person."
"Miss Zhong Ling is right, but what if I don't want to pay the extra 100 million yuan?" Chen Junhe's face darkened.
"Of course, it's fine if Mr. Chen doesn't want to pay the extra 100 million yuan. It's fine if he doesn't buy it. I didn't force Mr. Chen to buy it." Zhong Ling smiled. "I don't plan to sell it to Mr. Chen. I think there should be many people who are interested in buying it if I find someone else to take over my shares. Maybe I can sell it at a higher price."
"Miss Zhong Ling is really good at doing business. No wonder since you took charge of the Zhao Group's affairs, not only did you not let the Zhao Group suffer losses, but you also made the Zhao Group flourish." Chen Junhe looked at Zhong Ling, not knowing whether he was mocking or praising her.
"Mr. Chen, are you buying it or not? If not, give me a definite answer so that I can contact other buyers." Zhong Ling looked at Chen Junhe.
"Let me think about it. I'll give you an answer in two days. How about it?" Chen Junhe and Zhong Ling looked at each other, their eyes full of unwillingness and anger.
"Okay, then I'll give Mr. Chen two days. If I don't get a call from Mr. Chen by then, I'll take it that Mr. Chen is unwilling." Zhong Ling smiled. She saw that Chen Junhe was determined to get the shares of the Zhao Group. If that was the case, she was sure that Chen Junhe would be willing to pay the extra 100 million yuan.
After talking business with Chen Junhe, Zhong Ling didn't want to stay any longer. She got up and said goodbye. "Mr. Chen, the matter is over. I'll leave now."
"Miss Zhong Ling, it seems that you don't even want to sit with me for a while?" Chen Junhe stared at Zhong Ling.
"I didn't mean that. It's just that there's no friendship between us. The business is over. Do you want to sit down and chat before you leave?" Zhong Ling glanced at Chen Junhe and left the private room.
After Zhong Ling left, Chen Junhe was so angry that he slammed the table hard. With a loud bang, the club's waiter thought that something had happened and hurried in.
"Mr. Chen, what happened?"
"It's okay." Chen Junhe said angrily. He also got up and left the club, heading for the branch office.
When he arrived at the branch office, Captain Zhang was already waiting for Chen Junhe. Seeing that Chen Junhe had arrived, Captain Zhang smiled and said, "Young Master Chen, that Zhao Qiang is really a spineless coward. Last night, our people just scared him, and that kid almost peed his pants."
"How can a person like him, who has never suffered since he was a child, be so tough?" Chen Junhe said contemptuously.
"Young Master Chen, you don't look so good. You must be angry with someone." Captain Zhang looked at Chen Junhe.
"Humph, I was so angry with that bitch Zhong Ling that I almost vomited blood." Chen Junhe's face was full of anger. "If she didn't know someone now, I would really want to deal with her."
"Young Master Chen, calm down. Why do you get angry with a woman? It's not worth it." Captain Zhang smiled flatteringly.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about this. Chen Junhe waved his hand. He still had to find Zhao Qiang. As long as the plan on Zhao Qiang went smoothly, it would be able to wash away the joy. At least, the loss of Zhong Ling could be recovered.
"I'm going in to find Zhao Qiang. Help me keep an eye on the outside." Chen Junhe said.
"Don't worry, Young Master Chen, just go in. I'll be outside." Captain Zhang smiled.
Chen Junhe walked into the temporary detention room of the branch office. Zhao Qiang was sitting softly on the chair, without any anger on his face. When he saw Chen Junhe coming in, he seemed to have come back to his senses and jumped up from the chair. "Junhe, Junhe, you're finally here. It's only been one night, but I've been here for a long time. You must help me get out. You must help me get out."
"Brother Zhao, don't worry. I'm here to bring you good news." Chen Junhe smiled.
"Really? What good news? " Zhao Qiang's eyes opened wider than anyone else's, and he became energetic.
"Brother Zhao, I've found someone with a background. He can find a way to get you out, but he wants a reward." Chen Junhe whispered.
"Reward? That's a piece of cake. Hurry up and agree to it. I'm willing to pay him however much he wants. Millions? Tens of millions? As long as money can solve the problem, nothing is a problem. " Zhao Qiang said excitedly.
Millions? Tens of millions? Chen Junhe looked at Zhao Qiang and sneered in his heart. "You're trying to get rid of a beggar?"
"Brother Zhao, he doesn't want money. He wants the shares of your company." Chen Junhe said.
"He wants the shares of our company? Isn't that easier? Just transfer some of my shares to him. " Zhao Qiang said casually. Thinking that he could get out, he suddenly became energetic. There was a great life waiting for him to enjoy outside.
"Brother Zhao, he doesn't want a little bit of shares. It's this number." Chen Junhe gestured with his fingers.
"How much is this? Three percent?" Zhao Qiang was puzzled.
"Not three percent, but thirty percent." Chen Junhe narrowed his eyes and smiled.
