Chapter 194: Chapter 117 Unexpected_3

Yang Liu scoffed, “Yan Fei, you’re not as good at business as Lu Pingping, and you don’t have the same broad perspective as me. The only reason you’ve reached your current position is entirely down to luck. Also, you don’t understand politics; the reasons for their opposition are not without merit—each point raised could spark a national debate. And their opposition now doesn’t mean they will always oppose. As long as we wait until after your fundraising fails in three days and Lu Pingping is torn apart by the other side, they can agree with no political risk to themselves.”

Yan Fei frowned, “But because they don’t help me, it leads to my enterprise being taken over by you. Wouldn’t Shanghai lose a major business?”

Yang Liu burst into loud laughter, “Yan Fei, you really don’t see the big picture. Whether Weight Loss Cookies are in your hands or mine makes no difference to the real higher-ups in China; the only difference is who holds the control. You may have feelings for our country and have made many contributions, but some of the higher-ups are wary of where your technology comes from, so they’d feel more at ease with the technology in my hands. As for the reason, it’s because they’re more familiar with me and trust me more.”

Yan Fei shook his head, “You probably don’t even believe that yourself, do you? And by coming out so early, aren’t you afraid I’ll suspect that you orchestrated this whole situation, that I will refuse your terms and seek cooperation with someone else? You should know how much I dislike you; I might just choose another.”

Yang Liu suddenly lost his smile, speaking coldly, “Yan Fei, it seems you still don’t grasp the reality. Aren’t you puzzled why the big banks are unwilling to help you? On the surface, your company has the ability to repay the debt, and helping you would bring them huge benefits—it’s a win-win deal that should benefit both sides. So why do they refuse? And what about that VC firm from The United States and the other venture capitals? Can’t they see the market potential of Weight Loss Cookies? Why won’t they invest now?”

Yan Fei looked at Yang Liu and said, “Do we even need to think about the reasons? Isn’t it because you are the one causing trouble behind the scenes? Without their help, I have no choice but to submit to your terms. You’ve made sure of it. I believe you’ve done extensive groundwork, and even if someone else could help me, they won’t. So now, you are the only option I have, right?”

Yang Liu nodded, “I didn’t expect you to see through everything. It seems you’re not that foolish. To obtain Dream Foods, I did indeed pay a hefty price.”

Yan Fei shook his head, “You truly live up to your reputation as the ruthless man, Yang Liu. To achieve your goal, you’re probably ready to share the Weight Loss Cookies with other forces, right? If I’m not mistaken, Green Fir Capital will definitely hold a large share in the new company. That must be their basis for cooperation with you.”

Yang Liu said, “Exactly, you are entirely correct. I am that straightforward. My goal is to make money. I absolutely wouldn’t be involved with something that doesn’t bring me profit. Green Fir Capital and other forces will acquire shares in the new company. Green Fir Capital will even hold 40% of the shares.”

Yan Fei said scornfully, “You live up to your name as a ruthless man, willing to do anything for profit, betraying both teammates and country. When I held Weight Loss Cookies, they were entirely a Chinese enterprise, all profits circulated domestically, meaning all the benefits stayed in the country. But once you take over, you’re giving away at least 40% of the profits, letting foreigners gain. Some said you were unscrupulous for profit; I was skeptical, but now it’s clear they were completely right.”

Yang Liu: “With Weight Loss Cookies in your hands, you could never unlock their full potential. Once we acquire them, we will immediately break into the international market. Sales would at least quintuple from their current level. The authorities would gain more tax revenue and boost GDP—why wouldn’t they want that? How could that goal be achieved without an exchange of interests? What I’m doing is patriotic, it’s for the good of the country.”

Yan Fei sighed, “I have to admire one thing about you; you have some nerve. Moreover, no matter what you do, you always find a patriotic excuse for yourself, standing on a moral high ground to criticize others.”

Yang Liu was indifferent to how Yan Fei viewed him and said coldly, “Yan Fei, now that you know the causes and consequences, what’s your decision?”

Yan Fei closed the file on the table and said, “Deal, I accept your terms.”

Yang Liu was taken aback, then after a pause he said, “I thought you’d hesitate, but you agreed so readily. It seems Lu Pingping holds a high position in your heart.”

Yan Fei replied coldly, “My relationship with Lu Pingping is none of your business. I can accept your terms, but the formal signing of the contract should be postponed to tomorrow night at 8 o’clock.”

Yang Liu suddenly laughed, “Yan Fei, you still hold out hope, thinking that by tomorrow night at 8 the Municipal Government will decide to help you? Or that you’ll be able to rescue Lu Pingping by then? Or are you expecting some sort of turnaround?”

Yan Fei said coldly, “This is my only condition. If you agree, wait; if not, get lost.”

Yang Liu stood up and said, “Fine, I’ll give you this chance. Tomorrow night at 8, I will sign the agreement with you in front of the Television media here. Once the agreement is signed, the 3.5 billion US dollars will be transferred immediately, so you can save Lu Pingping, and the remaining money will be enough for you to squander for a lifetime.”

After saying that, Yang Liu walked out of the conference room. At the doorway, he suddenly stopped and said, “Yan Fei, whether you believe it or not, I have nothing to do with the kidnapping case involving Lu Pingping. The reason I came to you now is that I’ve always wanted your company and thus laid the groundwork in advance. Lu Pingping’s kidnapping was just a timely opportunity for me…”

Yan Fei just sneered, without making a sound.

Yang Liu added, “Your Food Factory was shut down on my orders. I even considered having the property management of this building evict your company, but since we’re signing the agreement here tomorrow, I let you save a little face. I’m telling you this so you know that in China, there’s nothing I can’t do.”

With that, Yang Liu, puffing on his cigar, left the conference room. His entourage hurried to follow, leaving only Yan Fei in the conference room, along with the bewildered executives from Dream Technology…
