At this time, Oden didn't know that Lin Zhiming was thinking about him again.
This is completely inconsistent with the routine of ordinary novels. In ordinary novels, doesn't the protagonist always get tricked and then fight back? Lin Zhiming was lucky because Oden didn't provoke him, but he took the initiative to attack.
The night is dark.
Inside Auden's residence.
Auden is different from many other nobles. Many nobles like to live in manors, and the bigger the manor, the better. Even if he is a small nobleman without any fiefdom, he will rent a piece of land to build a manor for himself, in order to show the difference between the nobles and ordinary people.
People are different, and Auden prefers to live in high-rise buildings. His residence is located in a building called Planck Building in the center of York. This building is the tallest building in York.
Auden's residence is located on the top floor.
The entire floor belongs to Oden.
At this time, Oden was sitting in the living room watching tonight's evening news, holding a glass in his hand with strong liquor in it.
In fact, after eating so badly at Ryan Portman's birthday dinner, Oden had to drink several drinks almost every night just to sleep.
He was in a very bad mood, because more than twenty years of hard work and planning turned into nothing in an instant.
Although he still has a net worth of tens of billions, Duke Bauhinia is destined to miss him.
That represents not only the glory of the nobility, but also trillions of capital!
Everything disappeared because of his bad plan.
Everything that happened that night appeared in his mind all the time, constantly reminding him that he had failed.
"These dragon warriors are crazy, causing trouble everywhere!" Oden looked at what was reported on the news and couldn't help cursing.
Recently, almost every night, the evening news reports on the war between the warriors of the Dragon Kingdom and the UKC Alliance. The war has lasted for nearly a week since the beginning. It is said that many people in the UKC Alliance have died, which can be regarded as a very painful blow.
Oden didn't feel much about the UKC alliance, but he hated the Dragon Kingdom warrior from the bottom of his heart, because the man who destroyed everything for him was a Dragon Kingdom warrior.
"Asshole!" Auden cursed angrily after thinking of Lin Zhiming, and then turned off the TV.
Just when Auden was about to go back to his room to sleep, his secretary walked over.
"Boss, there is a gentleman who claims to be from Supu Group and wants to see you!" the secretary whispered.
"Su Pu Group?" Oden frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Is it the group that makes mobile phones in Windmill Country?"
"Yes!" the secretary nodded.
"Why do they come to me? We have no business dealings with them!" Auden said doubtfully.
"The other party seems to have something important to ask you!" the secretary said.
"Okay, you can arrange for him to come to me!" Auden said.
"OK!"
Half an hour later, a middle-aged fat white man came to Auden led by Auden's secretary.
"Hello, distinguished Baron Oden! Let me introduce myself, my name is John! I am the secretary of Mr. Dom, CEO of Supu Group." The fat white man smiled and extended his hand to Oden.
Oden had no intention of shaking hands with the other party. He sat in his seat and said calmly, "I don't seem to have any business dealings with your company. I wonder why your company wants to see me?"
The fat white man named John smiled, put down his hand and said, "Mr. Baron, since you are so direct, let me tell you straight away. Our company hopes to purchase a top-level photolithography machine from Wave Light Manufacturing.
"
"Made by Waves?" Oden's face darkened and he said, "Are you deliberately humiliating me?"
"Absolutely not, Mr. Auden, how could you say that?" John asked in surprise.
"Don't you know that Boguang Manufacturing has now changed its general manager? I am no longer the general manager of Boguang Manufacturing!" Oden said.
"I know!" John said.
"I knew you were still asking me to buy a photolithography machine? You still said you didn't humiliate me?!" Auden asked with a dark face.
"Mr. Auden, I did not humiliate you. I haven't finished what I said. You will see if I humiliate you after you listen...The thing is, our company plans to purchase a top-end lithography machine from Boguang Manufacturing.
But the order for Boguang Manufacturing has been queued very far back. Our company is in urgent need of a photolithography machine, so we don’t want to wait that long. I hope you can help and put our company’s order forward so that we can jump in the queue!" John laughed.
He said.
"Oh? Jumping in line?" Oden raised his eyebrows, his face softened a little, he looked at John and said, "Before I left, the orders for Wave Light Manufacturing had indeed been scheduled for next year, but now that I have left, how can you
What do you think I can do to jump in line for you? Why don’t you ask Natalie? She is the current boss of the company.”
"I know that you have been working in Boguang Manufacturing for more than 20 years. Although you are no longer in Boguang Manufacturing, all your contacts are still there. You just asked me to join the team. This is nothing to you.
It's too difficult. As for why I didn't ask Miss Natalie, it's mainly because I don't like asking a woman to help, even though she is the boss, but... that makes me feel very awkward." John said, shrugged and said
Pouted.
Seeing John's expression, Auden smiled and said, "Your reason is strange, but I am the same as you. I don't like asking women for help. This world is dominated by men. We should not ask anyone for help."
A woman prays for help, and from that point of view, I like you very much."
"Then are you willing to do such a small favor for our company?" John asked quickly.
"This is no small job!" Oden shook his head and said, "Every order placed by Bo Guang Manufacturing now comes from a large company, and the delivery time of each order is set. Your order must be placed at the front.
, which means that every subsequent order may be delayed in delivery. This is not only a matter for your company, but also a matter for many companies. To let you jump in line, I need to mobilize a lot of resources, and they must also do it.
It takes a lot of arrangements to give the production line enough time to complete your order, which is very, very difficult."
"I know, I know." John smiled, took out a check from his bag and put it in front of Auden and said, "Mr. Auden, I won't let you do it in vain, this is for you.
reward."
Auden glanced at the check.
There was a long list of numbers written on the check. If Auden read it correctly, it should be 100 million.
One hundred million to buy someone to jump in line is a very scary price.
However, Oden did not immediately pick up the check.
He is a successful businessman and naturally knows how to bargain.
"John, you still don't understand what I mean. This matter is not an ordinary difficulty!" Auden said, putting his hand on the check and pushing the check in front of John.
"Really? Are there any difficulties that we don't know about?" John asked doubtfully.
"This is natural, just listen to me slowly..."
Half an hour later.
John wrote a series of numbers on a check.
"Mr. Auden, I didn't expect that this matter would be so difficult. In this case, the reward we give you should also match the difficulty of this matter. See if you are satisfied with this number!" John said
.
Auden picked up the check and took a look at it.
This time, the number on the check was much larger than the previous one.
Auden smiled with satisfaction and collected the check.
"Give me three days, and after three days, you will get your lithography machine!" Oden said.
"In that case, I would like to thank Mr. Auden first!" John said with a smile.
"It's nothing. I admire you as a person, so I'm willing to help you!" Auden said.
John smiled, stood up and said, "Mr. Auden, I will go back and wait for your good news!"
Oden also stood up, then took the initiative to reach out and shake John's hand and said, "If you have the opportunity, I will go to your company to visit your chairman and see if there are any opportunities for cooperation between us!"
"Then it's settled, our Supu Group welcomes you to guide our work!" John said, saying goodbye to Oden, then turned and left.
Auden returned to his seat and took the check out of his pocket.
"Since Duke Bauhinia has nothing to do with me, don't blame me for getting more benefits!" Auden said with a joking smile.
The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
Lin Zhiming and Ye Shan left the manor together and went to the York City Government Office.
The mayor of York, Maupassant, sent an invitation letter to Lin Zhiming two days ago, hoping that Lin Zhiming could visit the York City Government Office. Lin Zhiming replied to Maupassant's invitation yesterday and decided to go to the York City Government Office today.
itinerary.
It was said that he was going to visit the York City Government Office, but in fact Lin Zhiming only had one goal, and that was the key in Maupassant's hand!
The key was entrusted to the mayor of York by the corrupt government for safekeeping, so Natalie estimated that the key would most likely be in the mayor's office.
"Have you remembered what to do and what to say when we get there soon?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Remember!" Ye Shan nodded and said, "Mr. Lin, you have to believe me, I am professional in acting!"
"That's good!" Lin Zhiming nodded with a smile and said, "If things work out this time, I will be rewarded heavily when I go back."
"Okay!" Ye Shan nodded seriously.
Not long after, the car carrying Lin Zhiming arrived at the York City Government Office.
What surprised Lin Zhiming was that Maupassant, as the mayor of York, personally greeted him at the gate of the government office.
Lin Zhiming met Maupassant for the first time.
This is a middle-aged man in his fifties. He has a relatively strong body and looks like he exercises regularly.
Under the leadership of Maupassant, Lin Zhiming entered the York City Government Office.
