After Lin Yi finished his speech, no one applauded him, and several people had different reactions.
Majek's eyes were full of contempt, as if he was wondering how he could have talked to such an idiot just now.
He simply said: "If you can raise another penny in the market, I will take your last name."
Then he stood up and left the room, as if Lin Yi had some infectious disease that he couldn't wait to stay away from.
"Peng!"
This time he didn't slap the table with his iron palm, he just slammed the door when he left. Fortunately, the door of this hotel seemed to be relatively strong.
The second person to leave was Brother Ma. When he passed by Lin Yi, he seemed to have something to say, but in the end he did not speak.
However, Xiao Ma was still polite. He pointed at the door to indicate that he was going out, and barely said hello.
The third person to leave was Cheng Wei, because after Jack Ma and Brother Ma left, he had no reason to stay here.
Cheng Wei's face was full of confusion when Lin Yi was speaking at length. If he had to describe it, it would be equivalent to a black man's question mark face:
"What are you talking about?"
But no matter how far the channel difference between the two parties is, Cheng Wei at least understands one thing, and it's enough for him.
Obviously, their original plan tonight had failed ahead of time, and it was hard to say that it was due to the unexpected fire alarm.
Before he left, he also left a message for Lin Yi: "If you figure it out, come to me at any time."
In Cheng Wei's view, although the goal was not achieved today, the result was nothing more than a delay of a few months. As a winner, he did not mind waiting a little longer.
Robin Li didn't leave because this was his room.
He looked at the young man he had been supporting for a long time and shook his head and sighed: "Lin Yi, you may be blaming me for today's matter, but I really want to help you."
"You are still so young. Even if you fail to travel thousands of miles, you still have many opportunities to start over."
"But if you offend everyone, no one will pay you in the future, and no one will be willing to cooperate with you."
Robin Li seemed to feel that his words might be in vain, and finally said:
"Just take care of yourself."
Lin Yi didn't make any more remarks. In any case, he was grateful for Robin Li's previous support, so he said goodbye and left this lively room just now.
…
The next day was the forum event, but for Lin Yi, the whole process seemed lackluster.
Of course, he is not qualified to speak on stage on such an occasion. If he has anything to gain, it may be that he stood in the corner of the group photo and was photographed together.
Despite this, being able to appear in this photo is a symbol in itself, so Lin Yi is still satisfied with the harvest of this trip.
He was basically alone during the rest of the forum. He was not familiar with the attendees in China, and he was even less interested in getting to know those in the United States, and few people came to talk to him.
Cheng Wei seemed to take this situation very well, and could chat with both parties. He was considered a rising star on the forum that attracted much attention.
As he said, he will not return to China immediately after the forum, but will follow Liu Qing around Silicon Valley to establish an international structure.
Lin Yi had no such arrangements and did not plan to hang out or vacation in the United States, so he returned to China alone after serving as his own backdrop.
…
"How was the conversation?"
Liu Jianni, who urged him to participate in this forum, of course came to follow the progress as soon as he came back.
"I may disappoint you, Jenny."
Although he said this, Lin Yi's tone and expression were still relaxed. The result was not too unexpected, and he had no regrets.
Liu Jianni felt a very bad feeling in her heart, and she asked doubtfully:
"Cheng Wei came to you, or who came to you, and how did they talk specifically?"
"Cheng Wei did look for me, but mainly it was three other people who looked for me, namely Jack Ma, Brother Xiao Ma and Robin Li. They all set up a dragon gate formation to greet me, which was very honorable."
"Then what?"
"Then it's a long story, well... to be precise, I offended all three of them at once historically. This should be considered the first time someone has achieved this in the industry, right?"
This sounds a bit arrogant, but Liu Jianni has no intention of arguing with him now, and just continues to ask for details with a little helplessness.
Lin Yi told her about the lofty remarks he made in front of Jack Ma, Brother Xiao and Robin Li, almost pointing his finger at them and scolding them.
"you really……"
Liu Jiani hesitated to speak. Lin Yi probably guessed that she might want to say something bad but she held it back. She was really very well-mannered.
Her emotional mediation ability is very strong, and she fully accepted this fact in a short while, and was able to continue asking questions in a coherent manner:
"Lin Yi, this is no joke. Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?"
"According to your statement, the three most powerful people at the top of the industry tried to mediate the war of attrition between us and Dudu Kudu, but you scolded them back."
"I can accept what you said is a fait accompli. Whether you were impulsive or premeditated, I neither want to dwell on it nor ask for the reason."
"But what measures will be taken for the next ten thousand miles of travel? What other plans do you have? I hope you can tell me truthfully. Otherwise, I can only suspect that after you screw up this matter, we will only have a messed up road."
Lin Yi was satisfied with Liu Jianni's reaction. She still maintained a calm attitude and professional judgment, and was an excellent CFO.
"Before I talk about that, let me first ask those investors who came to visit me every day during the two days I left, have they still been here?"
Liu Jianni replied: "They have not been here since you agreed to attend this forum, and there has been no news from yesterday to now."
"According to what you just described, it's obvious that your statement towards those three people has reached their ears, and they have given up on the idea of persuading you."
Lin Yi and Liu Jianni both knew very well that Ma Jie Ke, Xiao Ma Ge and Li Robin came forward at the same time. Such a big battle represented not only the three of them and the three major BAT companies.
Behind them, there are dozens of investors who have raised money from Dudu Kuadu and Wanli Travel, so Majek dared to grit his teeth and say that Lin Yi would never be able to raise a penny again.
"Of course I know the consequences of doing so, but without accepting their mediation, it doesn't seem to matter whether it is handled well or not in terms of face."
"This does not mean that I have given up on myself. After all, our options were already very limited before going to the United States. The next few months may be very difficult for us."
Liu Jianni didn't pay attention to these foreshadowing words, but went straight to the point: "What should we do?"
