Chapter 1348: Negotiation Agenda / The Company’s Dominance

Liu Jifei was in a hurry to release the lust in his body, so he merely spoke a few sentences with Xu Xiaobin before quickly running out. His brain involuntarily started to fantasize about Wang Lixia’s previous look… I must find a chance to get her. Liu Jifei’s heart was very itchy.

Wang Lixia, as a woman, was very sensitive to Liu Jifei’s ill-disposed gaze. When Liu Jifei left, Wang Lixia whispered to Xu Xiaobin, “Xiaobin, there was something wrong with Liu Jifei’s gaze on me!”

“What’s wrong?” Xu Xiaobin was stunned. He didn’t understand why Wang Lixia suddenly mentioned this. “Did you provoke him?”

“That’s not it.” Wang Lixia shook her head. “I mean the way he looked at me was a little… just like when you want me. That kind of look is very lustful.”

“Ah?” Xu Xiaobin was immediately astounded listening to Wang Lixia’s words, but then he immediately laughed. “Lixia, are you thinking too much? Brother Fei does not lack women. He has his own company. What kind of woman does he not have? Are you mistaken?”

“No, I’m not mistaken!” Wang Lixia shook her head. “Xiaobin, you are not a woman, so you don’t understand. How can I not know what intentions a man has when he looks at me?”

“Lixia, I think you’re really overthinking it.” Xu Xiaobin obviously didn’t believe Wang Lixia’s words. “I think it was probably because when Brother Fei came in, we were going to do that, so Brother Fei’s eyes on you were a little mischievous, right?”

“That is also possible.” After listening to Xu Xiaobin’s words, Wang Lixia also felt that she overthought it. Liu Jifei’s situation was different from Xu Xiaobin. Liu Jifei had his own company, and he earned millions of yuan every year. How could he still lack women? Thinking of this, she self-deprecatingly shook her head. Maybe I am too sensitive.

“Come on. Don’t think so much. Today is a good day. We will continue to finish what we haven’t done yet!” Xu Xiaobin forgot what Wang Lixia said right away, and he spoke with a smile.

“Finish what?” Wang Lixia looked at Xu Xiaobin’s appearance, asking while knowing the answer.

“Things that we both like to do…” Xu Xiaobin took Wang Lixia and walked to the inner room.

“Yeah… you’re so naughty…” Wang Lixia said coquettishly, then she also forgot about Liu Jifei’s gaze.

Liu Jifei went out to find a karaoke room. Then he went in, called a prostitute, and had an intimate moment in the private room. He was thinking of Wang Lixia’s charming figure and kept yelling in his mouth, “Lixia… Lixia …”

The lady was used to such guests. He couldn’t get his dream girl in reality, but he came here to fantasize that the person below him was his dream girl. The prostitute couldn’t help but despise Liu Jifei as she thought of this. This kid must have come here after he broke up.

However, she was only feeling disdainful in her mind. He was, at least, her guest, so the prostitute also screamed in cooperation.

Liu Jifei never dreamed that his own thoughts had caused a lot of disasters, but now, he still didn’t know. He was still thinking about how to get Wang Lixia to bed.

The cooperation between the Hai Cheng Jiangyan Group and the Song Jiang Ming Yang Security Company officially entered the negotiation phase. The representative of the Jiangyan Group was Xu Xiaobin, and the representative of the Ming Yang Security Company was Jing Xiaolu.

Xu Xiaobin never dared to despise this woman, and it turned out that this woman was not of average astuteness. For the interests of the Ming Yang Security Company, Xu Xiaobin was extremely exhausted after negotiating for a few days.

“Brother Fei, Vice President Jing is too powerful. She really won’t give in in terms of interests!” Xu Xiaobin sat in the office, drinking with Liu Jifei.

Liu Jifei’s eyes were looking back and forth at Wang Lixia who was serving the dishes at the table. Suddenly, he heard Xu Xiaobin mentioning Jing Xiaolu, and Liu Jifei became very furious. “I know about that Jing Xiaolu. I don’t know who she hooked up with. She actually became the vice president.”

Liu Jifei was very clear about Jing Xiaolu. Otherwise, he wouldn’t mess with Yang Ming’s company. But now, after a turn of events, Jing Xiaolu was unexpectedly the person in charge of the negotiation. Liu Jifei was very happy.

This was good now. Not only could Liu Jifei teach Yang Ming a lesson, but he could also teach Jing Xiaolu a lesson! This negotiation was Jing Xiaolu’s responsibility. When there was really a problem, he believed that Yang Ming would not forgive Jing Xiaolu.

Hehe, you two will fight each other by that time. It is best that you two fight each other! Liu Jifei thought insidiously, and he could not help but smile.

“This Jing Xiaolu is also capable.” Xu Xiaobin waved his hand. “Although she is young, you can’t underestimate her. She’s very competent. If I didn’t have to come back and report the results to you, I would have agreed to her conditions on the spot! Her conditions seem to benefit us, but their company is actually the beneficiary!”

Hearing Xu Xiaobin say that Jing Xiaolu was very powerful, Liu Jifei felt a little more uncomfortable in his heart. If Jing Xiaolu were really as Xu Xiaobin described, then it wasn’t his fault that he was cheated by her!

When he thought of this, Liu Jifei’s anger also disappeared. “Oh? Which are the parts that you two are deadlocked on now?”

“Isn’t it about who will lead the company after the company’s establishment?” Xu Xiaobin said with a bitter smile. “The other things are minor. Only dominance is the big thing! She and I don’t want to give up the dominance! If we can get dominance, the group’s grandpa will look highly on us.”

“Oh, I see.” Liu Jifei thought about his next plan, but he didn’t care much about the issue of dominance. Maybe he could even make a fuss about it! Thinking of this, Liu Jifei said, “Then let them have dominance.”

“Ah? Are we just giving up like that?” Xu Xiaobin was baffled looking at Liu Jifei. “We’re not fighting for it? I think, at least, we have to get more shares, right?”

“You don’t have to fight for it. Just give them dominance.” Liu Jifei instantly had a plan in his heart. He intended to make a fuss through the problem of dominance.

“This…” Xu Xiaobin felt a bit unwilling to let go of the dominance just like that.

“You also know that the young masters in the company are taking us lightly for what we are doing!” Liu Jifei said, “If this matter failed, then we will be laughed at! And, the aspect of dominance isn’t really a good thing! This bank escort business has its risks. They can have dominance, but if something happened, those who have control would bear full responsibility.”

“Okay.” Hearing Liu Jifei say this, Xu Xiaobin also felt that Liu Jifei’s words made sense. First, the group was keeping an eye on it. If nothing happened in the long run, it was difficult to ensure that those young masters would take the opportunity to stir up trouble. If there were any changes, it would not be good, so it was best to finalize as soon as possible. Secondly, Liu Jifei was right. If the other party wanted dominance, then they would need to bear the risks. If he were the person responsible in the company, what should he do if something happened?

Previously, Xu Xiaobin competed for the right to speak; it was also because the company was responsible for his stay. He wanted to be able to speak in the future, but now, it seemed that the risk was also high, so it was better to give it to the other party. Anyway, the other party’s position in Song Jiang was great. They could handle everything while he enjoyed their achievements.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiaobin agreed. “Then, I will go discuss with them tomorrow. After the dominance right is determined, there should be no problem.”

“En, then you should hurry and get it done as soon as possible so that we don’t have to worry as time passes.” Liu Jifei nodded.

After drinking a lot of wine, Liu Jifei’s eyes, which looked at Wang Lixia, were vicious. Because Xu Xiaobin was here, Liu Jifei couldn’t do anything. Li Zhan supported him back to the hotel after drinking.

Jing Xiaolu was also very troubled. The bottom line that Bao Sanli gave her was actually to give up the dominant position. After all, the business involved was not in a familiar field of the ??Ming Yang Security Company, and the other party had many years of experience, so they didn’t have to get this dominance.

However, this was the first time that Jing Xiaolu was in a business negotiation. She wanted to do better to impress Yang Ming, so she insisted on dominance. However, the other party did not want to let go, and the negotiation was deadlocked.

Today was already the fifth day of negotiations. The other terms had been confirmed in the first three days. The Ming Yang Security Company was responsible for getting through the social relations; the Jiangyan Group was responsible for the technical equipment and security training of the new company. Each side owned half of the stocks, but a half referred to forty-nine percent or fifty-one percent.

Whoever was the dominant one would get this fifty-one percent. Of course, those who had fewer shares could take dominance, but this situation was generally rare. If the other party were a wholly-owned or a high-proportionate funder, the operator would have fewer shares.

Chapter 1351: The Company’s Dominance

Xu Xiaobin still arrived at the agreed place of negotiation on time which was the Huihai Business Club. This was a business place dedicated to business negotiations.

There were small meeting rooms, large conference rooms, restrooms, and restaurants, etc. which belonged to professionally targeted hotels.

This was not Ming Yang Entertainment’s territory, nor a territory of the Jiangyan Group. The reason they chose a place that was neutral with either party was to reflect the fairness of the negotiation. Otherwise, there would be pressure to negotiate on the other’s territory.

This was also the place with special business halls and tea restaurants where many entrepreneurs chose to go when they didn’t want to discuss business in their own company’s meeting rooms.

“President Xu, sorry for making you wait!” Jing Xiaolu smiled and walked into the agreed meeting room. “There was a traffic jam on the road today; I’m sorry for being a little late.”

“It doesn’t matter. We have just arrived too.” Xu Xiaobin had a lawyer here. Liu Jifei sent this lawyer; he was from Liu Jifei’s company.

Xu Xiaobin also understood that this lawyer might be Liu Jifei’s spy, but he did not care. Liu Jifei did not come in person, so his crony must be present. A lawyer also needed to be present when discussing the contract, so it saved Xu Xiaobin time to find a lawyer.

Although this was Liu Jifei’s man, he and Liu Jifei now had a common interest, so Liu Jifei wouldn’t send a fool. This lawyer definitely belonged to their side, so they wouldn’t suffer on their side.

In addition to lawyers, there were several subordinates. Liu Jifei borrowed these confidants temporarily from his own trading company.

Jing Xiaolu also had a lawyer and several employees. However, she was still in charge of the negotiation. The other people were just here to support her.

“President Xu, are we still discussing the future dominance of the company?” Jing Xiaolu had some headaches because this problem troubled her for several days. The situation was deadlocked for a long time. Jing Xiaolu thought if they still couldn’t work it out today, then she would give up the dominance and let them have it.

“Yes, but today our negotiations seem to have new progress.” Xu Xiaobin laughed.

“Oh? What does President Xu mean?” Jing Xiaolu’s eyes lit up. It seemed that Xu Xiaobin wanted to compromise.

“Yesterday, I discussed it with the group’s people. We can give up this dominance.” Xu Xiaobin went straight to the point. Since he had already decided, he did not need to beat around the bush. That would be meaningless.

Jing Xiaolu was shocked. She didn’t expect Xu Xiaobin to be so direct, but she was delighted after that. “It looks like our negotiations have really progressed.”

“Hehe, yeah, our group intends to secure this cooperation as soon as possible. We have been delaying too long on this,” said Xu Xiaobin.

Jing Xiaolu nodded and thought, I t turns out that it has been delayed for too long. However, isn’t this Xu Xiaobin agreeing too easily? Is there any conspiracy?

Jing Xiaolu was originally a conspiracy theorist, so when she noticed something suspicious, she wondered if there was a trap.

“So, let’s get into the process of drafting the contract then?” asked Jing Xiaolu.

“Hehe, we can give up on dominance, but we need to add one more condition to the contract.” Xu Xiaobin said, “In the future, if something happened in the company, then the dominant side must take full responsibility. That is, if you have the dominance, then you will be responsible for dealing with it.”

“Oh?” Jing Xiaolu listened to Xu Xiaobin’s words and understood some reasons. It is no wonder they will give up dominance. There are additional conditions.

However, Jing Xiaolu was relieved. If the other party did not have any additional conditions, then it would be suspicious for them to give up the dominance unconditionally.

Now that the other party had an additional condition, it was understandable. Xu Xiaobin’s condition wasn’t difficult to understand. They were doing business in another state; they were not local companies. Whether it was the social network or the local forces, they were weaker than Bao Sanli’s forces, so the other party gave up the dominance. However, they had to be responsible to solve any trouble that happened.

Jing Xiaolu thought about it. Bao Sanli should have no problem with his status in Song Jiang now, so she said, “Alright, I will report this to President Bao now. If he agrees, then we will start to draft the contract.”

“Okay, Vice President Jing, please…” Xu Xiaobin nodded, indicating that Jing Xiaolu could go out and call.

Outside the conference room, Jing Xiaolu called Bao Sanli’s mobile phone. “President Bao, this is Xiaolu.”

“Xiaolu, what happened to your negotiation there? Is there any progress? Do you need me to help you with something?” Bao Sanli was quite polite to Jing Xiaolu, mainly because Yang Ming was her backer.

Although Bao Sanli himself was also Yang Ming’s confidant, Jing Xiaolu was Yang Ming’s woman. In contrast, Bao Sanli felt that he was still one level lower. However, it couldn’t be helped. No matter if it were Yang Ming or him, they both weren’t gay, so it could only be like this.

“President Bao, this is the case. I want to report to you about the progress of the negotiations.” Jing Xiaolu still paid Bao Sanli enough respect. She knew that Yang Ming was annoyed with girls who get arrogant due to indulgence.

“Hehe, what report? Just say it if you have something.” Bao Sanli knew that Jing Xiaolu was giving him respect, so he wasn’t arrogant.

“This is the case. Today, Xu Xiaobin took the initiative to give up the company’s dominance, but he had an additional condition,” said Jing Xiaolu.

“Oh? What condition?” asked Bao Sanli.

“Xu Xiaobin added a condition that if anything happens to the company, the dominant side must take full responsibility,” said Jing Xiaolu.

“Oh? He is afraid that if something happens to the company, they can’t solve it, so they’re letting us solve it?” Bao Sanli understood Xu Xiaobin’s meaning. He thought and said, “We can promise them on this; it’s no problem.”

“Well, I will reply to them here,” said Jing Xiaolu when she heard that Bao Sanli agreed.

“Okay, call me anytime if there is anything,” said Bao Sanli.

Back in the conference room, Jing Xiaolu smiled and said to Xu Xiaobin, “President Xu, our President Bao has agreed to your condition.”

“Okay, in this case, there is no problem for either of us. We can draft the contract now.” Xu Xiaobin nodded. “We have already agreed on the previous terms and just have to add the latest term.”

“Alright.” Jing Xiaolu nodded.

Both sides brought their own assistants and lawyers. They would handle this matter. Jing Xiaolu and Xu Xiaobin talked casually about the future development of the company and waited for them to draft the contract.

Most of the terms of the contract were drafted before. Under the research of the lawyers of both parties, they added the latest term. The contract was finished when they confirmed who would get dominance.

“Vice President Jing, President Xu, the contract is done.” The lawyers of both sides said, “We have verified it. There should be no problem.”

“Okay. In this case, let’s determine a time to sign the contract then?” Xu Xiaobin nodded and spoke to Jing Xiaolu, “I can sign the contract on behalf of the Jiangyan Group. I don’t know if Vice President Jing or President Bao is signing on your side.”
