Chapter 16 - Back Home, Baby

Although Qinyu already had a big stable order, such an order was obviously not enough for a company on the verge of bankruptcy.

At most, it could revive the dead, but it would not be as grand as before.

Lin Wanmeng was worried. At this moment, Lin Bo, who had not contacted her for a long time, suddenly called. His tone was very kind.

"Mengmeng how have you been recently?" Lin Wanmeng frowned. She had long lost her father-daughter relationship with this person.

"May I ask what's the matter, President Lin?"

The other party was obviously choked by the coldness in her words. Then, he put on a good attitude.

"Dad knows that your company is not going well now, so I want to introduce you to a client."

It was really strange. Back when they were getting a divorce, Lin Bo could watch helplessly as the Qinyu Company went to ruin. He could see them in a terrible fix, but now, he was putting on the airs of a father.

"Don't misunderstand. This deal is very suitable for a small company like yours. I'm doing this for your own good."

It had been a long time since Lin Bo spoke in such a gentle tone. Lin Wanmeng was stunned for a moment.

After some consideration, she decided not to let her personal feelings get mixed up in business cooperation.

"What kind of cooperation?"

It turned out that CEO Wang wanted someone to collaborate with in the fashion industry and Lin Bo had met him at a banquet. However, this person was obviously rich and had nowhere to spend his money. He wanted an order to test the waters.

Lin Bo thought about it again and again and suddenly remembered that he had a daughter.

This story sounded reasonable, but Lin Wanmeng still didn't understand. Since Shi Qiuqiu and her daughter had already moved into the Lin family, why would they be so kind as to let Lin Bo give the order to her?

However, it was rare to see such a rich and easygoing investor.

Lin Wanmeng didn't mind expanding her business, so she told Lin Bo that she would consider it and hung up.

She dialed a number and called Zhou Quan over.

"CEO Wang…"

Zhou Quan was often active in the business world, so he naturally knew this person. He frowned.

"CEO Wang has always been unscrupulous in doing business. He's indeed not an easy person to get along with."

"However, if we can find one that satisfies him, the price he offers is also very tempting. The Wang family's family background is not poor."

Lin Wanmeng raised her eyebrows. Was Lin Bo so kind as to give them such a good deal?

She was a little hesitant, but they really needed to open a collaboration now. Otherwise, it would be bad if the company did not receive any income after this deal was lost.

Hence, Lin Wanmeng hesitated for a moment before deciding to accept it.

CEO Wang looked much more amiable. He spoke very politely, but there was a sharpness in his eyes that made people feel uneasy.

However, she was still a little weaker than Ye Lingxiao. Lin Wanmeng had already experienced that level of scrutiny. She could even handle CEO Wang with ease.

CEO Wang's eyes flashed with admiration. "President Lin, you're young and promising. I'm impressed."

That was the end of his pleasantries. After reading the proposal they submitted, CEO Wang threw the paper on the table impolitely.

"CEO Lin, you're being insincere. Your company's base price is clearly 1.3 million yuan. Why are you requesting such a high price? Do you think I'm a fool?"

Lin Wanmeng's price was calculated according to each business transaction. 1.3 million yuan was just the passing line.

"This is the volume of transactions from last year and the year before. Our company can be considered a reputable company. The materials and manpower we chose are the best. You won't lose out at this price."

However, CEO Wang sneered, threw down the proposal, and turned to leave.

After CEO Wang left, Zhou Quan walked forward with an ugly expression. "President Lin… CEO Wang seems to have found out about our previous business activities."

It was easy for the other party to figure out their base price from such confidential information and gain the most benefits.

Lin Wanmeng was stunned. She instantly thought of someone.

This business deal was not beneficial to Lin Bo, so why would he suddenly introduce it to them out of kindness?

However, if it was a business introduction on the surface, it would be much easier to explain if it was actually to sell the secrets of the Qinyu Corporation to make it easier for competitors to find out.

CEO Wang probably chose their company because he could get such a bargain.

Lin Wanmeng clenched her fists. She did not expect him to have such disgusting morals.

However… there was one thing that was not wrong. CEO Wang was indeed a good way for them to cooperate with other companies.

After all, after the previous crisis, other than Yueming, who had the backing of a large corporation, other small companies did not dare to cooperate with them. CEO Wang was the leader of these small companies.

She could not give up just like that!

"Make an appointment with CEO Wang for me. We'll meet tomorrow."

This time, they did not meet in the conference room. In the private room, CEO Wang looked at the dishes on the table and chuckled.

"President Lin, I believe you know that I'm not someone who can be moved so easily. If your company can't offer relative benefits, then it's useless regardless of how many times you talk to me."

Lin Wanmeng took a deep breath and took out her previous plan.

CEO Wang took it and looked at it. He realized that it was still the same one from before. He was about to ask Lin Wanmeng about it when he saw her take out another document.

"CEO Wang, this is the information on our current production line. Please take a look."

The straightforwardness this time made CEO Wang more patient with Lin Wanmeng. He carefully looked through it and pointed at a spot in shock. "You're actually using A-grade machines?"

Wasn't such a small company afraid of going bankrupt using such machines?

Lin Wanmeng smiled and said confidently, "Yes, in order to ensure the stability of the production line, our company used the best machines. This is also the reason why we can't accept your price."

"We haven't made these points known to the public yet."

The Qinyu Corporation's previous reputation was still alright, but after the financial crisis, it had plummeted. As soon as Lin Wanmeng took over, she replaced all the previous machines in order to strive for perfection.

It was for future cooperation with other companies.

CEO Wang actually knew about the background of the Qinyu Company. He had made sufficient preparations for the negotiations.

However, after seeing this document, he began to consider whether the information provided by Lin Bo was accurate.

Although he only wanted to get a preliminary understanding of the clothing industry, if he could cooperate with such a company, it might really become another business of the Wang family.

The two of them chatted happily. Lin Wanmeng gave him a toast and her expression turned ugly after two gulps.

CEO Wang was not a shameless person. Seeing that Lin Wanmeng's face was pale, he politely ended the meal.

A gust of cold wind blew on Lin Wanmeng's face as she walked out of the door. She suddenly felt a pain in her forehead. Lin Wanmeng leaned against the side and rested for a while. When she opened her eyes again, there was a suit jacket draped over her shoulders.

"Ye Lingxiao?"

Her eyes were wide open and her mouth was half-open. Her blank look was really cute.

"Let's go home."

Lin Wanmeng was pulled by him towards the car step by step. The man in front of her was staring at the colorful lights high up in the sky. The light and shadow beside him seemed to be glowing.

Amidst the splendor, she was tempted for a moment.
