Chapter 452: Domineering! Seeking Death!
"Hello, we are the business negotiation team of Yunwei Group of the United States, and this is our vice president, Mr. Charlie Petain."
Wednesday.
Osaka, Japan.
Phoenix Engine Development Co., Ltd.
The blonde secretary spoke fluent Japanese and said to the receptionist at the front desk:
"Last Friday we made an appointment with Vice President Nagashima to meet today."
For business negotiations, we made an appointment in advance and everything went according to the procedure.
Originally, for a team like the Yunwei Business Group that can conduct business negotiations with the president, the front desk should treat them politely, and then immediately go to inform the president and prepare for the reception.
But today, I don’t know why.
After hearing the purpose of Pétain and his party's visit, the receptionist who was in charge of receiving them hesitated:
“Uh…oh…oh…Is that so…”
The receptionist forced a slightly stiff smile on his face.
Not only was hesitant, but even a little embarrassed.
"Any questions?"
Seeing this, Pétain frowned slightly.
I wondered to myself what kind of quality is this receptionist?
It's clearly a normal business process, why does it seem so reluctant?
The secretary and translator beside him also translated Pétain's questions.
“Ah…Ah! No, no!”
Hearing this, the Sakura girl in charge of the reception waved her hands and bowed repeatedly:
"Private Marseille! Private Marseille! I'm sorry to have confused you!"
"That's right, President Nagashima is in a meeting right now. Please come to the VIP room and wait for a moment!"
Hi--
After hearing the explanation from the front desk, Bei Dang Anan rolled his eyes.
It turns out that I was so nervous because I didn't have time for an emergency meeting.
It is very normal for business negotiations to be delayed due to temporary matters.
Although Bei Dang, as the vice president of Yunwei, rarely has the experience of waiting for others, usually others wait for him.
But think about it, Phoenix is not a group under Vivendi, and secondly, it does not depend on Yunwei alone for its livelihood, so this normal attitude is normal.
Then just wait!
Although Pétain felt a little uncomfortable, he didn't say anything.
But unexpectedly!
They waited for a full three and a half hours!
From eight in the morning, I waited until eleven thirty in the afternoon!
During the first hour, Pétain frowned slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.
In the second hour, Pétain paced back and forth in a restless manner, and his voice was full of resentment and even a little annoyance.
In the third hour, Pétain even called Cortick directly, saying that Phoenix was going too far and wanted to cancel the originally scheduled cooperation negotiations, but Cortick refused with the reason that "the new work is more important."
Until half past eleven!
And when the receptionist brought them tea again!
Pétain finally couldn't hold it anymore!
Bang!
Pétain slammed the table and stood up, his face full of anger:
"I'll ask you one last time! Does your president still remember the business negotiation with Yunwei today?!"
It's such a fucking bully!
You said you wanted to wait five minutes because you had something urgent to do, that's fine.
You said to wait for ten minutes, even if the meeting is not over yet, that's fine.
Even if I have to wait half an hour and the matter is difficult, I can barely endure it!
Three and a half hours!
Who waits three and a half hours for a business negotiation?!
At first he thought that Phoenix only treated them and Yunwei as ordinary business colleagues on an equal footing.
Now take a look.
Phoenix doesn't even consider them as human beings?!
If you don't get angry, do you think others are fools? !
"Uh-this-private Marseille! Private Marseille!!!"
What did the front desk say?
The poor, weak and helpless Sakura girl could only bow and apologize repeatedly and comfort Pétain and others.
And at this moment!
Knock knock knock——
Suddenly, there was a knock on the VIP room door.
Turn around and look.
Then a woman in her forties with short hair and a pearly white suit stood at the door.
"Sorry to bother you, but what is this...?"
I saw a woman suddenly appear at the door.
Pétain and the others were all stunned, while the receptionist, who was originally scolded and looked humiliated, seemed to have seen a savior, and hurriedly came to the woman and nodded slightly:
"President Meitian, these people are from the business delegation of Yunwei in the United States. They have made an appointment with President Changdao for business negotiations, but..."
"Oh, okay, go ahead,"
After hearing the situation in a few words, the middle-aged lady called "President Mita" walked into the VIP room in two or three steps. Xiang Beidang extended his hand:
"Hello, Mr. Pétain, I am Nagashima Mita, the vice president of Phoenix Engine Development Co., Ltd."
Beautiful fields in Nagashima!
The second-in-command of Phoenix Engine Company and the younger sister of the president, Hiroki Nagashima.
"President Nagashima's meeting took a bit too long. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
As he spoke, Nagashima Mita walked to the reception sofa and sat down, then he stretched out his hand:
"Please take a seat, Mr. Pétain."
Have to say!
Nagashima Mita has a very strong aura!
The master showed great aura in his every move and it was obvious that he did not regard Yun Wei as someone who required much respect. Even his apology sounded light-hearted.
and!
What annoyed Pétain the most was that she had no intention of inviting them to the meeting room!
It was as if they were going to be dealt with in this temporary reception room!
"I've heard that the Phoenix engine is very powerful, and today I saw that it is indeed true."
There was not a trace of smile on Pétain's face, and there was a sting in his words.
However, Nagashima Mita did not respond at all, but nodded: "Thank you Mr. Pétain for your praise, let's talk about business."
Fuck me——!!!
Pétain was almost like Zheng Zong with a jet pack on his back in The Mermaid, and was so angry that he was flying all over the sky.
"So, President Meitian is going to discuss the engine licensing with us here at Yunwei?"
Seeing that Nagashima Mita had no intention of being polite, Pétain simply stopped being tense and started with a domineering question!
Just move out the big sign of "Yunwei"!
The world's largest comprehensive game manufacturer! One of the most capable right-hand men of today's gaming giant Vivendi!
It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, they sitting here represent half of the world's gaming community!
Is this your attitude in Phoenix?
If a tiger doesn't show its might, do you really think I'm a sick cat?!
After saying that, Pétain's mouth corners sank slightly, and his eyes contained a hint of threat and anger!
The scene froze for two seconds!
Then, Nagashima Mita opened his mouth and said:
"No, Mr. Pétain, I am not going to have any conversation with you about the engine authorization in this reception room."
snort!
Hearing this, Pétain snorted secretly, and the corners of his mouth that had been drooping slightly smoothed out.
You don’t know the fun without fighting.
They were so aggressive just a second ago, but now that Yun Wei's name has been brought up, they have become soft on the spot, right?
With a sneer in his heart, Petain rolled his eyelids arrogantly and raised his hand:
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the conference room to discuss..."
However!
Before he could finish his words!
Nagashima Mita gave a polite fake smile and nodded slightly.
"Mr. Pétain misunderstood. I meant that there is no need for us to negotiate further because——"
"In the meeting just now, we decided not to provide any engine authorization services to your company in the future."
As soon as these words came out.
The entire reception room fell into deathly silence in an instant.
Pétain didn't even react at first, his eyes were blank.
It took a full ten seconds!
His eyes gradually changed from dull confusion to uncontrollable rage!
"What the fvk are you talking about?"
What the fuck are you talking about?
Do you know what the fuck you are talking about?!
At this moment, Pétain's patience finally reached its critical point, and his anger erupted like a volcano!
A full three and a half hours of waiting!
They were left alone in this reception room for the entire morning!
The meetings at Phoenix seem to be endless, they never end!
And now, finally a senior executive came to receive them, but they were told, “We will no longer provide any engine licensing services to your company in the future”?
Are you guys playing tricks on me?!
and!
"President Mita, I think I need to remind you to be responsible for your words,"
At this moment, Petain's expression was somewhat distorted. He suppressed the urge to curse and used a tone full of naked threats to "remind" Nagashima Mita across from him:
"Do you mean to impose an engine blockade on our Yunwei from now on? Are you sure? Do you want to block Yunwei?"
That’s right!
This is the crux of the problem now!
The three and a half hour wait and Nagashima Mita's attitude were certainly irritating.
But more important than all this is Phoenix’s current ban on Yunwei!
Pétain never expected this.
In today's world of gaming, there are still people who dare to actively block Yunwei? !
Yes, you can say that didn’t Golden Engine announce the implementation of a technical blacklist on their Prestige series before?
That's because they were the first to impose a blockade on a series of Chinese manufacturers including Golden Wind. Moreover, as they own Fantasy Dream, they don't even look down on the Golden Engine.
But the Phoenix engine is different!
As one of the engine developers with a market share second only to Fantasy, Phoenix is one of the best in the world in terms of both technical strength and fame!
A company of this level, with no grudges in the past or today, suddenly announced a blockade of Yunwei!
Are you fucking serious?!
And faced with Pétain's angry and aggressive questioning!
Nagashima Mita still looked calm, and nodded without any hesitation:
"I am certain, Mr. Petain, that Phoenix will refuse all requests for engine service from now on."
Just block you!
If you didn’t hear me clearly, I’ll tell you again!
And hear these words!
Pétain, who was so angry and humiliated, finally couldn't hold it in any longer and slammed the table and stood up!
"Let your president come out and explain! We have been waiting for nearly four hours, not for your casual blockade decision!"
"I need a reasonable explanation!"
At this tense moment, when the situation was tense and Pétain was completely furious!
Suddenly!
At the door of the reception room, a clear female voice sounded:
"A blockade is a blockade. Who do you think you are? Do I need to explain it to you?"
Exposing domineering attitude!
court death!
As soon as these words came out, all the members of the Yunwei Business Group were shocked!
And Pétain, who was in the lead, raised his eyebrows angrily and turned his head to glare towards the door!
But the next second!
When he saw the person standing at the door clearly, he froze in an instant and stood still.
Chairman of Golden Wind Game Company!
MiaShen!
"you--?!"
For a moment, Pétain just stood there in a daze!
Pig brain overload.
He really couldn't understand why Shen Miaomiao would appear in this place at this time.
You must know!
One is a well-known Japanese commercial engine developer with an international reputation.
One is a Chinese game development company that is currently in the limelight.
Admittedly, theoretically speaking, these two companies are indeed in the same industry, so it is normal for them to have some overlap.
but!
He has never heard of any deep cooperative relationship between Golden Wind and Phoenix!
The two parties are just nodding acquaintances, and at best they have had normal licensing cooperation in previous works such as "Silent Hill PT" and "Escape"!
That's just some friendship...
This can't be a reason for you, Phoenix, to vent your anger on Golden Wind and block me, right?!
Thinking of this, Petain could not help but frown and sneered:
"Isn't Manager Shen's statement too lenient? I'm asking about the person in charge of Phoenix, not you."
Talking.
Petain turned his head and looked at Nagashima Mita, who had a calm expression on his face, and snorted coldly and said:
"And I also suggest that President Mita try to have less contact and cooperation with companies that are prone to causing trouble, and be careful not to use the power of others to bully others and cause trouble with your words."
These words are very hurtful, and the implication of sowing discord is extremely strong.
Although I don’t know what’s the trick.
But judging from the current situation, it is not difficult for Petain to analyze that Phoenix's blockade of Yunwei is definitely related to the disaster star Shen Miaomiao of Golden Wind.
It seems that today's talks are doomed to have no good results.
In that case, I might as well disgust you.
The meaning of Pétain's words is very clear -
Look quickly, Changdao Mitian, you, the vice president, are still standing here, and Shen Miaomiao dares to speak so rudely to our Yunwei in front of you. Who is the host and who is the guest among you?
Besides, by cooperating with such a trouble-making enterprise, aren't you afraid that one day they will offend the wrong people under the banner of your Phoenix?
"Be careful of those who come with bad intentions..."
After saying that.
Pétain glanced at Changdao Mitian and Shen Miaomiao's faces, hoping to see some embarrassment and discomfort on their faces.
However.
The opposite happened.
Hearing this, the two of them not only did not show any unnatural expressions on their faces, but instead looked at each other as if they were having fun, and both revealed inexplicable smiles.
Shen Miaomiao looked at Pétain up and down for a long while as if he were a fool. She was so annoyed by Pétain that she slowly shook her head with a smile and said:
"Mr. Pétain, you still have a lot to learn about slang."
"You just said I was 'Borrowing power to do evil',"
"It means that the weak can use the power of the strong to realize their evil ideas."
"Let's not talk about whether it is just to impose counter-sanctions on a gaming hegemonic organization like you,"
“I just want to ask one question:”
"As the second largest shareholder of Phoenix Engine Development Co., Ltd.—"
"Whose fox is this, and whose power is it borrowing?"
Pétain guessed correctly—
Shen Miaomiao really didn't have any connections that could influence Phoenix Engine's attitude!
But unfortunately——
She has enough money to influence the equity organizational structure of Phoenix Engine!
1.8 billion dollars!
23.22% equity!
Shen Miaomiao, who is now standing in front of Pétain, does not represent the golden wind!
Instead, I am speaking to you on behalf of one of the world’s top game engine developers and Phoenix’s second largest shareholder!
"Is he coming with bad intentions?"
With light footsteps, Shen Miaomiao walked into the reception room, picked up the briefcase on the table and handed it to Petain, issuing an order to leave:
"You are the one who came..."
