However, after taking a look at the pile of folders on the coffee table, he thought with a headache that he had been waiting in line for two years. If he had to wait in line again, he would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
After thinking about it, Howard said: "Can you ask Mr. Li to reconvene the board of directors? Let's discuss it again?"
Li Jingchen said calmly: "If I go back on my word, it will reduce my credibility, and then the deep-water port will be even more difficult to manage."
Hearing this, other people in the consulate said angrily——
"Mr. Howard, he is perfunctory with you! Don't be fooled by him!"
"If he doesn't want to take care of it, let's ask Elena and the others to take Yaobo Company to court! Let the director of Yaobo Company go to jail!"
Let Wanwan go to jail?
At this time, without Li Jingchen opening his mouth, Mayor Zhou threw the petition in front of Howard and others, and said without anger: "Consul General Howard might as well take a look at this petition. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it. Here is a translation
.”
After Howard hesitated for a moment, he picked up the petition.
The female translator started translating responsibly.
The more Howard listened, the more frightened he became. Others slowly closed their mouths and became visibly nervous.
They did not expect that when domestic businesses in S city stopped being silent, they would deal such a heavy blow to foreign companies!
Howard turned to the end and saw the dense signatures and fingerprints.
The bright red finger prints were like the blood and tears shed by the merchants in City S. There was too much forbearance and unwillingness in them, and now they burst out together, shocking Howard.
Mayor Zhou looked at them seriously and said: "If Elena and the others want to sue the director of Yaobo Company, then these three hundred merchants will also unite to sue the foreign company.
Of course, the vast majority of these foreign companies are not citizens of your consulate, and you have no obligation to protect them. But if this happens, I don’t know if other countries will be angry with you."
Howard's hand holding the petition shook.
Mayor Zhou's meaning is very clear. If there is going to be trouble, then let's make it big. Howard doesn't know whether Deepwater Harbor will die, but he himself is dead!
Because not only did he fail to settle the matter, but he also caused the matter to be widely implicated and harmed the interests of other countries in S City. How can he be the consul general again?
Others are also silent. When it comes to their own interests, no one dares to make a desperate bet.
Except Li Jingchen!
He is a madman!
Howard had already heard about Li Jingchen's evil reputation, but when he saw him today, he realized that Li Jingchen was a calm madman!
He dealt with them with ease, making sure every move they made that they had discussed in advance would make him die on the spot!
And he no longer has any chess pieces.
After a long time, Howard put down the petition and said: "Okay, Mr. Li, Mayor Zhou, I will persuade Elena and Randy to apologize to Yaobo Company and let their company get back in line. I hope that in my
In my lifetime, I can see the success of their brand."
Li Jingchen nodded, stretched out his hand to Howard, and said, "Then, it's a deal."
Howard sighed heavily, and while reaching out to hold it, he couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Li, I still don't understand, why are you helping Yaobo Company like this?"
Li Jingchen said bluntly: "Because, there is my lover in there."
"Love?" Howard was stunned, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Since this is your business secret, I won't ask."
Obviously, Howard didn't believe this reason. There must be a deeper reason that made it worthwhile for Li Jingchen to do this.
