Johns, the person in charge of Xiangjiang of Dadong Bank, who has gray hair but gives off a strong-spirited look, said guiltily: "Director Shen, your conditions are really very impressive."
"To be honest, if it weren't for the special timing, I would have agreed."
"It's just that the time is not right now, so I can't agree to your request for a loan."
Shen Lin sat opposite Johns. At this time, he looked a little sloppy.
Yes, it is just sloppy. If nothing else, the beard has not been groomed in the past two days, which gives people an extremely sloppy look.
After hearing what Johns said, he stood up from his seat and said, "Mr. Johns, the loan terms I offered you can't find anywhere else."
Having said this, he said eagerly: "Of course, if Mr. Johns feels that these conditions are inappropriate, we can change them."
"After all, all aspects of business are negotiated. I believe that through friendly negotiations, we will be able to negotiate everything better."
Listening to Shen Lin's words, Johns had a faint smile on his face.
This smile is not a sarcastic smile, but an intimate smile.
"Director Shen, I have always heard a saying that a man can bend and stretch, and I have seen it in you today."
"To be honest, it is very easy for people like you to succeed, and I am very willing to cooperate with people like you."
"But, I have already promised to others, so I can't help you all. I'm very sorry."
Having said this, Johns said: "Dr. Shen, as a friend, I want to tell you that you don't need to bother. Among these banks in Xiangjiang, you can't borrow 80 million U.S. dollars, so don't waste it. It’s time.”
Shen Lin looked at Johns, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Mr. Johns, thank you for your candor."
"I believe it is still possible for us to cooperate in the future."
As he spoke, Shen Lin strode out without any hesitation.
Johns's assistant, a young man who looked to be in his thirties, couldn't help but sneer at this moment: "He has definitely failed miserably this time. Why is he cooperating with our Dadong Bank?"
"Do you want to open an account with us and save a few hundred dollars?"
The young man's sarcasm caused a burst of laughter.
To the people present, they were winners. Seeing a person who was once so high was about to fall off the altar, they felt a little happy in their hearts.
As the head of the bank, Johns looked a bit ugly.
He glanced at the laughing employees and wanted to speak, but said nothing.
But after he returned to his office, he made a phone call. On the other end of the phone was his good friend and boss.
"Mr. Lanlov, I am very sorry to tell you that I think your choice in this business is wrong."
"I think we should choose Shen Lin instead of Taiyu Group, which has many problems."
"Mike Electronics is full of vitality, and they need a loan now. I am very excited about Shen Lin's conditions. As long as we cooperate with Shen Lin, the returns we can get will definitely be more than what we have now..."
A mellow voice came from the other end of the phone: "Johns, my old friend, I understand what you are thinking."
"But some things are always difficult to balance."
"Taiyu Group is our old customer, and this time it is even more hemorrhaging. Under such circumstances, I think it is better to choose Taiyu Group."
"After all, their reputation is pretty good."
"Loans from us are all repaid on time."
Johns said: "Mr. Lanlov, although sometimes I think what you say makes sense, sometimes I also think you take it a little too much for granted."
Lan Love was not angry, he laughed loudly and said: "Mr. Johns, I think you should have a good drink, just finish it."
"By the way, the benefits promised by Taiyu Group will be available soon. Please pay attention to receive them."
"Although Taiyu Group has been friends with us for a long time, there are still times when we need to be careful."
Johns sighed and hung up the phone.
He put down the phone, looked out the window at the setting sun, and shook his head gently.
In the moving car, Liang Jialuo laughed loudly and said, "Shen Lin, if I hadn't known that you were acting, I would have really thought that you were at the end of your rope."
"Tsk, you're really good at acting. How about I sign you up for an acting class and you can become an actor."
Shen Lin rubbed his face and said, "Okay, let's not say these are useless. We have already met with the heads of four major banks. It can be said that we have already visited everyone who should have visited them."
"The performance should end here."
Having said this, he pondered for a moment and said, "The next step is to invite Boss Li and the others to dinner."
"Lawyer Zhang, please communicate with me so that the big bosses will refuse my invitation on the grounds that they don't have time."
Zhang Yuqing sat in the passenger seat, quickly memorized Shen Lin's request with a pen, and then said with a smile: "Okay, Director Shen, I will make arrangements right away."
Liang Jialuo walked towards the back seat of the car very ungracefully and said: "Dr. Shen, the play that should be played is almost over."
"And there are still four or five days until your repayment time, what are you going to do?"
Shen Lin looked at the endless flow of people outside the car and said with a smile: "Since all roads have been blocked, let's just find a place to drink and relieve our worries. What do you think?"
Liang Jialuo chuckled and said, "This is also a good idea."
Just as the two people were talking, the phone in Fang Xiaomei's hand suddenly rang.
Fang Xiaomei is quite uncomfortable with using this Big Brother. If possible, she still likes to use PHS.
Unfortunately, Xiangjiang does not support PHS, so Fang Xiaomei can only find this mobile phone and use it.
After answering the phone, Fang Xiaomei said a few words and looked towards Shen Lin with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?" Shen Lin asked Fang Xiaomei.
"Director Shen, this call is from our publishing company in Europa. That...that GMM Film Company in the United States seems to know that we have encountered difficulties."
"They said they were willing to pay $70 million to buy out all the rights to the Harry Potter series at once."
"And they also require that the boss lady must write nine books, and the quality and sales of each book cannot be lower than the current results."
"If it is less than 10 percent of the current performance, it will be regarded as our breach of contract."
"They will impose at least double the fine on us."
As Fang Xiaomei spoke, she mentioned four or five extremely harsh conditions. After listening to these conditions, Shen Lin had only one word in his mind - take advantage of the situation!
