Just now, Old John casually asked, seeing that Jenny wasn’t willing to discuss it, in order not to make this al awkward, he imdiately laughed and said, "Fortunately, their business group left in the afternoon, that ’Bai’ also left, and didn’t reach any cooperation with us. No matter how much conflict there was, no matter how difficult it was, it’s all over. From now on, the cooperation between you and is what’s most important."
Jenny imdiately smiled and raised her glass to toast Old John.
After taking a sip of the wine, and with no outsiders in the room, Old John leaned forward and whispered, "Miss Jenny, did you bring the stuff from your side? My superior is extrely concerned about the performance and earnings from our official cooperation, but he’s even more attentive to our under-the-table dealings. After all, that’s where the money is!"
Two types of cooperation: one is for reputation, the other for profit.
This was also the agreed price with Miss Caroline.
Seeing Old John’s expression, Jenny laughed, "I brought it, rest assured!"
The reason for signing both official and secret contracts is to give both parties leverage. This step can’t be skipped.
"And—" Jenny said, "Before leaving, Miss Caroline asked to pass a ssage to your superior... that the business president in the African region might soon retire. Miss Caroline said she and Vice Chairman Morgan will strongly support that gentleman at the upcoming headquarters eting. Don’t underestimate him just because he’s only a deputy executive president now, he also has the chance to leap ahead and beco the business president!"
As the saying goes, when soone achieves the Dao, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Once the leader is elevated, naturally everyone else benefits too.
Old John bead upon hearing this.
Even at his age, he still has a chance to advance further; the allure of more fa and wealth is irresistible. What’s happier than that?
"Great, great! Then I’ll thank your side in advance for the support on behalf of that gentleman. Once our guy becos the business president of the African region, the cooperation between us will be even more sincere, and we’ll form a solid alliance at the headquarters!"
At this point, Old John suddenly rembered sothing and said, "However, the retiring business president, that older gentleman, has a very strong sense of pride, to the point of being a bit extre. When he sees two subordinates fighting over the position, will he get angry, intervene, or maybe even support the other side?"
"What are you worrying about? Soone will naturally arrange everything. At worst, wait until that old gentleman steps down, and then let the battle begin," Jenny said indifferently.
In her view, Old John was worrying unnecessarily. Was this really sothing he should be overthinking?
"Right, right, there’s no need to care about how the higher-ups do things, let’s talk about what’s in front of us," Old John couldn’t help but glance at the handbag Jenny placed on the table, hesitantly asking, "Miss Jenny, surely you wouldn’t carry those contracts in such a small bag with you, right?"
Old John’s words made Jenny burst out laughing.
"How could that be? This is just my personal bag; those things are in the room."
Seeing Old John a bit worried, Jenny laughed and said, "Don’t worry, I stored them in a safe worth ten thousand US dollars. That safe is unbreakable, can’t be pried open, and even if you set it on fire, it’d remain secure. During the brand’s testing, they hired several top-notch lock-picking experts and they still couldn’t do it!"
"That impressive?" Old John asked, wide-eyed.
"Made in Arica, Arican quality!" Jenny said proudly.
At this mont, in Jenny’s room, that safe she praised to high heaven was open.
Lei Ying packed up his tools, picked up the docunts inside with his gloved hands, and casually muttered, "This safe is far worse than before. Ha, truly each generation is worse than the last."
