Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 272

We both know what they will be like, so we must make all the necessary preparations.

Chapter 328 Looking for Trouble

Whether it's fighting or breaking ties with them, you need to be well-prepared.

My men, don't sit idle these days, get them all up and running.

Once we get through this, I'll give my brothers a break so they can go abroad and have some fun.

Xu Lei has always been very protective of his brothers' rights, but this time he had no other choice.

We need to get everyone organized and make sure they stay at their posts.

In case that bastard Li Zhenlin causes any more trouble.

By then, things will be much more complicated than just a few disagreements.

I'm afraid that in the future, everyone's faces will look particularly bad.

"You know, that guy could have just talked to us properly, but he had to make things so awkward."

I really don't know what he's trying to achieve by doing all this.

If you really want to do better in life, then you should try to make money through harmony.

Boss, you're not unreasonable. I think he's just being a busybody, looking for trouble when he has nothing better to do.

Since that's the case, we can't back down now, as long as we can this time.

I guarantee he'll become even more audacious in the future; he just came today to test our limits.

Xu Lei didn't expect that this guy would have such a clear understanding of things.

"Well, you've grown up quite a bit lately, and you can see through so many things now. It's a pity that you can see through so many things."

That old man has been in the business world for so many years, but he's not very capable.

They always thought that if they scared me a little, I would become as heavy as a young person.

It seems like if I control the entire blockade, I'll be helpless..."

Xu Lei was not easily intimidated, and their words had no effect on him.

He thought he could control the whole situation, but in reality, everything was under his control.

Xu Lei would never be scared out of his wits by a few words from others.

He has a strong will and lofty aspirations, and he will never be intimidated by what others say.

Xiao Qiang felt his blood boil the moment he heard his boss say that.

"I knew it! Those guys from the boss's group are like grasshoppers after autumn; they can't cause any trouble at all."

On the surface, it seemed like they were trying to intimidate us, but in reality, we didn't believe any of it.

I'm truly speechless. If we could just have a proper talk, that would be fine.

But the way they acted didn't seem like they wanted to have a proper talk; it was as if they wanted to break ties with us.

They either want us to give up right here, but these guys aren't exactly clean either.

They thought they could be in charge of everything and manage all the affairs.

"They've dragged us all into this; I'm starting to see him for who he really is now."

As Xiaoqiang drove over, Xu Lei didn't care about any of this, nor would he doubt himself because of their behavior.

"They can do whatever they want; their legs are on their bodies, and their mouths are on their bodies too."

All I need to do now is take care of my own business; let these guys do whatever they want.

Xu Lei closed his eyes to rest, not caring about the rumors and gossip; he wanted to live only under the gaze of others.

Then he wouldn't even need to light the fire. Just thinking about what these people were saying about him behind his back made Xu Lei feel like he was going to die of anger.

So they simply ignored these things, and those people naturally couldn't do anything about it.

"That's right, boss. It's great that you think that way. Those guys are all troublemakers."

They may pretend to be friendly with us, but who knows what they might be up to behind our backs.

You have to be prepared to not stoop to their level.

After saying that, he chuckled. Seeing his honest expression, Xu Lei nodded in agreement.

They were almost there, and Xu Lei had brought two bottles of expensive red wine with him.

If the boss is discerning, he should be able to tell how much determination he has put into this.

The goal is to genuinely and sincerely finalize this takeout deal, rather than engaging in any superficial or unethical practices.

"Boss, I'm a little worried. Li Zhenlin has been making such a big fuss lately."

He might not let us off so easily, otherwise I'd better get a few people ready in advance.

Xu Lei nodded silently, but they were about to arrive at the meeting place.

"Alright, let's not discuss this matter for now. Tell the brothers below to work hard these days."

Keep everything safe, inside and out, and don't let them have any chance to take advantage of it.

If anything seems amiss, please contact me immediately, and I will take all necessary precautions for them.

Xu Lei's words at that moment instantly lifted the spirits of everyone present.

Absolutely not. We can't just let it go like this, with everyone being so intelligent.

They know how to act with propriety and dignity, so in such situations...

Neither side wanted to make definitive statements, nor did they dare to escalate the situation too much.

Everyone was embarrassed. Zhang Guo hadn't arrived yet, so Xu Lei deliberately arrived early so he could be prepared.

"After all, they've come all this way to visit us, so we must treat them as proper hosts."

Make sure you do everything that needs to be done and follow all the proper etiquette. Make sure to double-check the menu with the owner.

I heard he's also from the north, so he probably doesn't have any dietary restrictions. Just make sure the food isn't too spicy or oily.

Xu Lei handled every detail perfectly, wanting to leave a deep impression on the other party.

This makes it easier for each other to handle things.

Otherwise, if things remain deadlocked, it won't be a good thing.

"Don't worry, boss. I've gone out and told them. Don't be nervous."

I think since Mr. Gao and he had such a good talk before, he probably won't be a difficult person to deal with.

Li Zhao should be considered a reasonable person.

Seeing that the eldest brother seemed a little nervous, Xiaoqiang couldn't help but comfort him.

Xu Lei knew that before everything was settled, he absolutely could not relax and had to remain vigilant.

Only after everything is dealt with can I truly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Of course I know, but as the hosts, we have to handle all of this properly."

We can't let others think we don't value this collaboration.

Just as Xu Lei was getting ready, Gao Qiqiang led Zhang Guo in. Zhang Guo was struck by the elegant and refined decor of the private room.

"Wow, I have to say, the interior design here is really nice."

The moment you step inside, you're greeted with an air of refined elegance. Doing business in a place like this naturally puts you in a better mood.

The boss seemed very satisfied with the location, and Gao Qiqiang also gave Xu Lei a look of approval.

Chapter 329 I'm convinced

"I told you long ago, don't be fooled by how young this kid looks."

I feel a bit threatened when I see him now. He has great potential and is bold and decisive.

At least in terms of character, he must be acceptable; otherwise...

I won't personally bring you here to meet them. How could I introduce you to someone who isn't good?

After saying that, he laughed heartily, and Xu Lei quickly stepped forward to help pull out a chair.

In fact, Xu Lei's identity meant he didn't need to do these things, and he could even delegate these tasks to Xiao Qiang.

As the CEO of a company, he should be treated as an equal by everyone.

No one is inferior to the other, even if they need his help with supply matters.

Many young people are also unwilling to lower themselves, so they see all of this.

Zhang Guo nodded with great satisfaction, even feeling a sense of admiration.

"I think you, Mr. Xu, are destined for great things. I've met many people who have met you."

Businessmen your age, those kids, they have such bad tempers.

They're always trying to regulate things, always wanting individuality, but they're watching you.

They seemed somewhat different from them, which even surprised me a little.

After saying that, he couldn't help but praise her a couple of times, and Xu Lei quickly waved his hand to show his modesty.

"It's a pleasure to meet you and chat with you. I'd like to learn more about building materials, specifically 257."

I know the business is already very satisfied; I heard Mr. Gao say that a long time ago.

You're a major player in the building materials industry, so I don't expect to have any long-term cooperation with you.

I just wanted to ask you for some advice. Eat more food, because there's that Buffett lunch thing, right?

I think I can learn a lot from having dinner with you, Mr. Zhang.

Xu Lei's words made Zhang Guo beam with joy from the bottom of his heart.

This kid is not only eloquent, but every compliment he makes is spot on.

How could anyone not be happy about this? So let alone how excited I was.

His face was beaming with joy, a mixture of excitement and astonishment that defied description.

"Oh, you know, there's a reason why your business is so big. It's so comforting to hear that."

After saying that, she smiled slightly.

"However, although this cooperation may not be possible, I would still be happy to discuss these building materials with you."

Unexpectedly, the other party refused right away, and Xu Lei hadn't even opened his mouth yet.

The other party had already figured out his intention in inviting him here.

(bhbj)

This is definitely not just a casual chat; there's no need to spell out our thoughts.

They all understood, but Xu Lei didn't react too excitedly or show any significant change in expression.

He paused for a moment, but quickly turned into a smile.

"I already said that I'm only here to learn more from you, and if we can't cooperate..."

"That could also be our company. We're not big enough to meet your expectations right now, so we need to work even harder."

After Xu Lei finished speaking, Zhang Guo was stunned, not expecting Xu Lei to say such a thing.

Originally, he wanted to take down Xu Lei, but this time he scared himself into standing still.

"Don't you want to ask me why I don't cooperate with you, or try to fight for myself again?"

Xu Lei shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

"Actually, I'd also like to hear the reasons, but I already know the reasons."

It's simply that we're not doing well right now, and there will definitely be opportunities to improve in the future.

I imagine that with your extensive business experience and the many people you've met, you must have a clear understanding of these matters.

You have far more insight than a young person like me. It's normal for you to have your own considerations; I have a lot to learn from you.

Xu Lei's words surprised Zhang Guo even more, making him feel that this person was even more unfathomable than he had imagined.
