“Brother Hongwei, what’s wrong, seeing you with a dark face, did the negotiations with the Brilliant Group not go well?”
Seeing He Hongwei’s face not looking too good, Ji Feng couldn’t help but ask.
Within the world’s gentry brothers that Ji Feng knew, He Hongwei was considered one of the more poised ones, he also had a certain amount of manners and usually did not write his mood on his face, but now He Hongwei was completely happy and angry, it was obvious that his mood was already bad to a certain extent.
“Humph! How much more than bad is it?”
He Hongwei snorted coldly and said in a deep voice, “There’s simply no progress at all!”
Ji Feng frowned and asked, “The Brilliant Group hasn’t given in at all?”
He Hongwei shook his head and said, “No, I think they are determined to cooperate with the Kepong people.”
“Wasn’t this result expected a long time ago, just take your time, why be so annoyed?!” Ji Feng asked warmly.
The Brilliant Group was originally determined to cooperate with the Kepong people, and they knew it very well from the beginning.
Otherwise, there was no need for him and He Hongwei to come over. If the Brilliant Group was not eager to cooperate with the Kepong people, they would naturally consider it as long as the top gave a slight greeting.
However, the reality is that even though the top had given the word, the Brilliant Group did not buy it, but as a private enterprise, the top could not intervene directly because this was after all a commercial matter, and the Brilliant Group’s practice did not violate the law, so the top had to send He Hongwei over.
Moreover, it was the boss himself who gave the nod.
This shows how determined the Brilliant Group is to work with the Kepong people.
When He Hongwei was so angry, Ji Feng didn’t quite understand: “Come on, calm down, as long as the Brilliant Group hasn’t officially signed a contract with the Kepong people, the matter is not irreversible, let’s take our time, there is always a solution!”
“There is definitely a solution, and I’m not angry because of this, but ……” He Hongwei grunted, “I’m P*ssed off by that guy named Shao Jie.”
“Shao Jie?”
Ji Feng raised an eyebrow and asked, “Is that the young man with gla*ses who followed Zhai Yadong when we went to the Brilliant Group that time?”
For this Shao Jie, Ji Feng’s impression was quite deep, and as soon as He Hongwei mentioned it, Ji Feng immediately knew who he was talking about.
Because this guy called Shao Jie had a very obvious hostility towards Ji Feng, so Ji Feng secretly investigated this person after meeting Shao Jie for the first time.
He originally thought that Shao Jie should also be the son of some big family or have some other origins, but things did not occur to him that Shao Jie was just a person from a very ordinary cadre family in Yanjing.
Apart from the fact that Shao Jie’s old son had some real power in his hands, there was nothing special about their family.
He could not recall where he had offended him.
This matter had been placed in Ji Feng’s mind, and now when He Hongwei mentioned it, Ji Feng was once again puzzled.
“It’s not him!”
He Hongwei snorted coldly, his face grim, “This time when I went to the Brilliant Group, this person was even more arrogant than the last time, and his attitude was so brutal that he even tried to drive me out!”
Ji Feng immediately frowned, “Throw you out? Did you have a conflict?”
He Hongwei shook his head and said, “If there was a real conflict, there would be no need for me to be angry, I would just clean him up! The point is that there was no conflict, I was talking to Zhai Yadong, and this person ended up sticking his nose in the side and causing trouble from time to time!”
“Heh!”
Ji Feng shook his head and smiled, He Hongwei said that, he could understand it very well.
The arrogance and brutality of this person Shao Jie was something that Ji Feng had personally experienced, back when they first went to the Brilliant Group, this Shao Jie was wildly out of control and spoke with a gun in his mouth, which was very punchy.
However, at that time, Ji Feng and He Hongwei didn’t have any common sense with him.
I can’t imagine that he has become more and more arrogant instead, and has even developed to start driving He Hongwei outwards, so next time, won’t he even be able to ask the security guards to blow them out directly?
“What exactly is this Shao Jie’s status in the Brilliant Group? Why does Zhai Yadong bring him around every time?!” Ji Feng frowned and asked.
“How should I know what kind of identity!”
He Hongwei said with no good grace, “His external identity is the a*sistant to the general manager of the Brilliant Group, but look at his appearance, he can interrupt at will when Zhai Yadong is talking, and sometimes he starts to chatter before Zhai Yadong even makes a comment, which boss would want such an a*sistant?”
The first thing you need to do is to find an a*sistant, or else he wouldn’t have to do his job, he would just be waiting for Shao Jie to make enemies for him!
Besides, that Zhai Yadong was a very shrewd person, why did he find such a person to be his a*sistant, did he still think he was in too good a mood, so he had to find someone to P*ss himself off from time to time?
“Hong Wei, have you ever thought that every time you go to Zhai Yadong, that Shao Jie is always present, so could it be that Zhai Yadong is doing this on purpose?” Ji Feng asked.
“I understand what you mean, but I think, that’s not very likely.” He Hongwei shook his head, “If Zhai Yadong wanted to refuse, there was no need for him to go around in such a big circle, it wouldn’t be a big deal to just refuse!”
Ji Feng meant that Zhai Yadong did not want to talk to him and He Hongwei, but he could not save face, or rather, due to his and He Hongwei’s status, he did not want to offend them too hard, so he simply brought Shao Jie with him and let Shao Jie be the villain, so that not only could he achieve the purpose of refusal, but Zhai Yadong himself did not have to offend them too hard.
But He Hongwei was the one who felt that although this possibility existed, it was not very big.
Since the Brilliant Group could not even give face to the top, why would they care about the two of them?
No matter what Zhai Yadong did, it would end up in an unhappy situation anyway, so why go around in such a big circle, it was totally unnecessary!
Because he and Ji Feng were not fools, if they were really annoyed then they would know who to settle this score with in the end!
“Since that’s the case, it means that this Shao Jie must have other origins that we don’t know about!” Ji Feng said in a deep voice, “Or maybe there’s something unique about Shao Jie, something overpowering that makes Zhai Yadong rely on him so much!”
“That’s unknown.”
He Hongwei shook his head and said, “It looks like, with Shao Jie in the middle of the block, it’s difficult to get a breakthrough from Zhai Yadong, now we have to make second hand preparations ……”
Ji Feng nodded and said, “By the way, how far have the negotiations between the Brilliant Group and the Boundary Pontiffs gone?”
“We don’t know yet, both of them are strictly confidential, it’s not that easy to find out.” He Hongwei said, “However, according to the information I got, I’m afraid they are not too far away from formally signing the contract.”
“How do you know that?” Ji Feng immediately asked.
“Because my people are in the Brilliant Group!” He Hongwei nodded, “I heard that in the recent week, the people from Boundary Peng have come three times, apparently the two sides are in close contact, according to my deduction, they should be having final consultations here, and as long as some details are agreed upon, I’m afraid that they can officially cooperate.”
“Humph!”
Ji Feng sneered and said, “If you have milk, you are a mother!”
“This is all understandable, the key question is, I’m just a little confused, why does the Brilliant Group have to cooperate with the Kepong people?” He Hongwei frowned and said, “Just because the Kepong people’s technology is a bit more advanced and give more money?”
Ji Feng asked, “Is this the reason given by the Brilliant Group?”
He Hongwei nodded, “Isn’t it!”
Ji Feng shook his head and smiled, he really didn’t think about these two reasons, frankly speaking, the technology of the people of Jie Peng was indeed very advanced, especially in some industrial finishing and processes, etc. Jie Peng’s technology level was indeed far more advanced than China’s, if the two sides cooperated, it might really allow the Brilliant Group to gain a lot of benefits.
However, Ji Feng felt that this reason did not hold water because the Brilliant Group was not just a mere private enterprise, but it was also an a*set of the Wu family and a source of wealth for the Wu family.
The fact that the Wu family didn’t even care about the slightest impact really made Ji Feng think a little bit.
But there were things at the top that Ji Feng didn’t know much about, and He Hongwei likewise couldn’t say, so they could only rack their brains to find a way to stop it, but they couldn’t get to the source.
“If we could know why the Brilliant Group was just so determined to work with the Kepong people, perhaps things would be much better!” Ji Feng mused.
As long as the root cause was found, the problem could be solved at the root.
“Is there something the Wu family is asking of the Boundary Pontiffs?” Ji Feng asked with a frown.
“Who knows!”
He Hongwei shook his head and said, “The two of us should stop guessing here, it’s just a waste of time, let’s think about what to do next.”
Ji Feng said, “There will definitely be a way, no need to get so fired up …… By the way, you’ve also made contact with the Kepong people, did you get anything?”
He Hongwei immediately asked, “Look at my current appearance, what do you think I will gain?”
Ji Feng then shook his head and laughed, it was obvious that He Hongwei had probably touched the dust with the Kepong people as well.
“The Kepong people are polite, but they just don’t pull in this direction, as long as I mention it, they immediately change the topic, I can’t afford to overly pursue ……” He Hongwei shook his head somewhat helplessly, to say the least, there is no relationship between him and the Kepong people, so people do not answer his questions, it is also natural.
“The people of Kailong are still polite?” Ji Feng shook his head and laughed at once.
