The city chief took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and then said, "President Cao, there's a matter of first come, first served. They haven't finished eating, so we can't just ask them to leave. You can go eat in another private room."
Cao Chuandong raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Oh, Mr. Mayor, are you saying you're unwilling to work on the other party's mindset? Do you believe that if my electronics factory shuts down, those thousands of workers will have no food to eat?"
It was a threat, a blatant threat.
The city chief grew even more furious, but still managed to suppress his anger and asked slowly, "Who's eating in the private room?"
If it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't dare to confront Cao Chuandong like this.
And if an ordinary person did confront Cao Chuandong, Cao's men would likely have already chased them off, and Cao wouldn't be calling himself.
