In the conference room.
Secretary Lee told President He and Nadeen what Henry had told her.
Nadeen was happy to hear Mr. Zhang's reply. She was sure that she had the upper hand in this negotiation. Once she won over the most successful company in Yan Xia, no one could ever gossip behind her back. And everyone would refer to her as Vice President He, rather than the daughter of the president.
President He said, "Nadeen, your action is too risky. This collaboration is very important to us as well. Your arrogant behavior makes people annoyed easily. If the Lins Group doesn't buy into your trick, we will lose our advantage."
"Don't worry, President He," Nadeen said confidently, "I have the experience of creating business. I can tell a person's personality and limitations from their wordings. I trust myself."
President He stopped persuading his daughter.
President He and Nadeen were still waiting in the conference room.
According to Nadeen's prediction, this so-called Mr. Zhang would show up very soon, and he would be very careful in negotiation.
But they had been waiting for half an hour.
No one showed up during this time. Nadeen frowned.
President He sighed, "Nadeen, I'm afraid you are wrong this time. Just as you wanted to test the Lins Group's bottom line, they are also testing ours. We only have two options right now. Staying and negotiating in disadvantage. Or leaving right now and testing their bottom line another time. Which one do you pick?"
"We can't leave!" Nadeen clenched her teeth and fists. She said, "We can wait a little longer. I have faith."
"It's good that you have faith." President He patted his daughter on the shoulder, "Nadeen, remember, I won't blame you for whichever the outcome. I just don't want what happens here to affect you, do you understand?"
"President He, don't worry," Nadeen took a deep breath, "I'm not as fragile as you think."
Half an hour had passed, Nadeen's stomach started to growl. She was hungry.
This was also the time people would feel sleepy. Nadeen had a rather hard time enduring hunger and fatigue.
Just as Nadeen was about to fall asleep, the door of the conference room was open.
Henry walked in with a teacup in his hand.
Ranjeet followed behind him with a wretched look on his face. When he saw Nadeen, Ranjeet's eyes were fixed on her.
No matter it's the body figure, the face, or the deposition, Nadeen was top of the notch.
Seeing Henry walked, Nadeen suddenly woke up from her half-asleep state.
Henry, suddenly focused. He said to Nadeen, "Ma'am, what kind of investment are you hoping for? I have a piece of land, and a lot of people are trying to get their hands on it. They always dug the place up without asking for our approval. If you want to invest in real estate, I recommend our land!"
Nadeen took a suspicious look at Ranjeet, and she turned to Henry as if she was asking Henry who on earth was this man.
Henry shrugged. He pointed at his own head and said, "He has some problems here. You guys can ignore him. Let's talk about our collaboration. So you want the Lins Group to give you the land rights for free for thirty years. And in return, you will give us thirty percent of the profit during this time?"
"Yes," Nadeen nodded, "In our proposal, we plan to build a residential community and a shopping mall on one thousand acres of land. By using our own resources, we can introduce something that Yinzhou doesn't have. It is very beneficial for Yinzhou's future development."
Henry suddenly burst out laughing while hearing Nadeen's words.
Nadeen frowned again, "Do you have any thoughts on what I have said, Mr. Zhang?" "No," Henry waved his hand, "I don't have thoughts.
I was just looking for data. Don't tell me He Clan just conducts business based on thoughts. What is the basic benefit for the Lins Group in three years? What evidence do you have to prove that He Clan won't go bankrupt in thirty years?"
"Mr. Zhang, do you think that a business enterprise that as big as He Clan would go bankrupt that easy?" Nadeen asked angrily.
Henry nodded, "Yes, I do."
Henry then stood up. He took a sip of tea and ignored Nadeen. Henry said to President He, "If your company is really sincere about the collaboration, please get a real business person to talk with me. I have no interest in talking with a young girl who has lived in nowhere other than Utopia."
