After a while, Deman finished his phone call and walked back to his seat.
Luo Ziling expressed his contempt for the old man in front of him for his habit of not taking his mobile phone with him when he went out.
After Deman sat down, Luo Ziling poured a glass of wine for him and then filled it for himself.
"Two beautiful ladies, why don't you drink?" Deman raised his glass and gestured to Lin Lan and Chen Xiaoyi.
"I am breastfeeding and cannot drink. She is Mr. Luo's assistant and is responsible for driving, so she cannot drink. Please forgive Mr. Deman." After Chen Xiaoyi explained, she smiled and said: "Mr. Deman and Mr. Luo are
Wine makes friends, so drink a few more glasses and we will cheer you up."
Hearing what Chen Xiaoyi said, Deman raised his glass apologetically to show his apology.
Next, Luo Ziling continued to talk nonsense with Deman.
Due to the language barrier, it was impossible to enjoy the whole story through the translations of Chen Xiaoyi and Lin Lan.
Luo Ziling felt that when the two women were helping him translate, they would definitely misinterpret his meaning, and even deliberately did not translate some of his meaning. In addition, Deman, an old man, had a huge generation gap with him, so the conversation was not interesting.
After a while, Deman's assistant came.
What Luo Ziling said is true. She is a woman with blond hair and blue eyes, a very good figure, and a pretty good appearance.
When she saw Luo Ziling, the woman's eyes visibly lit up and she looked at him a few times.
Luo Ziling quickly sat up straight, straightened his front, and subconsciously made a defensive move.
This woman named Lisa was Deman's assistant. What surprised Luo Ziling was that she could actually speak Chinese.
It's just that she doesn't speak fluently, far less fluently than Chen Xiaoyi and Lin Lan who speak French.
Deman was more straightforward than Luo Ziling expected. After calling his assistant over, he immediately discussed cooperation matters with Luo Ziling.
Luo Ziling had just expressed his interest in Total's investment in Southeast Asia, so the negotiations between the two parties began on this aspect.
Total has invested a lot in China. This company has invested in China since the late 1970s, and its total investment has reached at least tens of billions of euros. The fundamental purpose of Northern Group's desire to cooperate with Total is to participate in oil and gas development.
After all, this is something that the Northern Group has not been involved in before.
Luo Ziling made it very clear what he meant, which was to buy shares in Total's branches in Southeast Asia and obtain a certain amount of equity.
"Why are you not interested in cooperating with our company in China?" Deman asked Luo Ziling with squinted eyes.
"Then there is no need to compete with our domestic companies!" Luo Ziling shook his head and said with a smile: "If Total wants to cooperate with us in things other than oil and gas development, such as new energy, medicine and real estate, then we can reach an agreement
cooperate."
"Haha, sure!" Deman nodded.
Luo Ziling had already expected that Deman would be difficult to deal with, so he was not surprised when Deman became very fussy. He was even more fussy than Deman, which surprised both Chen Xiaoyi and Lin Lan.
The two parties did not finally reach a formal cooperation agreement, but only reached some intentions.
The two parties made an appointment to find a time to have a good talk.
At that time, if both parties are satisfied, the agreement can be signed.
The result of such a meeting was a bit surprising to Luo Ziling.
He did not expect that Total Group, represented by Deman, was more "sincere" than he expected. After a meeting, they were willing to cooperate in some aspects.
However, Luo Ziling did not show any joy. When he said goodbye, he politely said to Deman: "I look forward to meeting again with Mr. Deman."
Luo Ziling did not show any surprises. Total Group was willing to cooperate with Northern Group, and he did not show ecstasy. He looked unfazed. At such a young age, Deman felt that he could not do it now if he was so open-minded about these things.
.
Luo Ziling, a young man in his early twenties, actually did it, and he was naturally amazed.
Moreover, during the conversation just now, Luo Ziling acted mature and steady, and considered things very carefully, which also amazed him.
Originally, he thought that Luo Ziling was just a dandy, no matter how powerful he was, he would never be a match for an old fox like him.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling was a little fox with a deeper understanding than him, so he found it quite difficult during the negotiation.
After the meeting with Luo Ziling, he asked his assistant Lisa to find more information about Northern Group, Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling. The more detailed the better.
In the afternoon, Deman finally saw the information.
After seeing this information, he was shocked.
Northern Group has a deep background and strong financial resources, which he has known for a long time.
But what he didn't expect was that the background was so profound that it surprised him.
The information about Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan also surprised him.
After Ling Ruonan handed over control of the Northern Group, he became a senior official.
And Luo Ziling has made so many achievements in just one year.
"Oh my god, the number of his fans is nearly 100 million, which is more than the population of France." Deman watched the video of Luo Ziling, Xu Chongzhi and Taro Ishihara when they were fighting doctors, as well as some of his interviews on other occasions.
Finally, he marveled again. "No wonder he behaves so calmly. He turns out to be such a person."
After reading the information, he smiled and said to Lisa: "This young Chinese man seems to be even more extraordinary than we thought!"
"He is very handsome and difficult to deal with!" Lisa nodded, "What those two women said is probably true. He has very good abilities, and his hands and eyes are very good. He can do many things that our partners in China cannot do.
Maybe it can be done.”
"First inform the board of directors of today's meeting minutes and see how they react." Deman calmly instructed Lisa, "I think cooperation with this young man can bring a lot of benefits to our Total Group.
, there will even be many more opportunities. Also, maybe it can change the relationship between France and China."
Lisa nodded and didn't say anything to Deman's words.
Some things are not something she can express her opinions on casually.
When Lisa was sorting out the information and preparing to leave, Deman stopped him.
"Dear Lisa, that young man gave me an acupuncture just now. After the acupuncture, I feel that my energy has improved a lot." Deman walked up to Lisa, grabbed her arm, and smiled ambiguously.
He said quietly: "How about we take a lunch break together?"
"Can you do it?" Lisa glanced at Deman.
"You will know after you try it!" Deman looked excited. "I believe in his miraculous medical skills. If his treatment is effective, I will continue to seek treatment from him in the future. I think I should be able to make friends with him.
, he can help us, and we can also help him. Helping each other should be a very happy act!"
