Hun Tianba and Fei Tianqi nodded. They also didn’t need to tell w.a.n.g Xifan about today’s affairs. It was a shame for them. Moreover, this was the private enmity of Song Hang and had nothing to do with w.a.n.g Xifan.
But because they didn’t tell w.a.n.g Xifan that Yang Ming was a ruthless character, w.a.n.g Xifan didn’t have any defense against Yang Ming. He only considered Yang Ming as a cla.s.smate who had a conflict with his son, which led to his annihilation in the future.
A ten yuan iron skewer in exchange for an HD camera. That was a good deal! Yang Ming hummed a small tune on his journey back to university. He first copied the video data from the camera to his computer in the dormitory. Then, he used the method of compression and split encryption as he uploaded it to his own mailbox. Only then did he delete all data in the camera.
Yang Ming wanted to buy a video camera initially. Now, someone had given one to him and saved him some money.
In the evening, Yang Ming went to Xiao Qing. He told Xiao Qing about having information against Song Hang in his hand. Xiao Qing was also smiling as she lectured Yang Ming for being too bad!
Every moment of the night was precious, and Yang Ming naturally cherished it deeply…
On the other hand, Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma and the Princ.i.p.al of Song Jiang Industry University were discussing the issue of Song Hang in the office.
“Princ.i.p.al Hang, do you think that this Song Hang was a bit overboard? He actually put forward such a request. What did he take our university to be?” Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma said with some anger. Especially for people who came from an academics background, he was somewhat old-fas.h.i.+oned. He was most uncomfortable seeing the kind of villain like Song Hang. “How about you go and look for the relevant departments in the city to put some pressure on them?”
” Ai , pressure them?” Princ.i.p.al Hang smiled and shook his head. “Never mind that Huatong International is a foreign-invested enterprise, the kind of test equipment we want is a foreign semi-confidential technology instrument. If they want to sell it to us, they may do so. If they don’t want to sell, we have no say about it! They don’t need to bother with us at all. If putting pressure on them is effective, our current technical equipment won’t be so outdated. Do you think such a high-tech company doesn’t have their backs supported by their country?”
“Then, what can be done?” Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma didn’t understand this, “Do we just keep quiet and let him be arrogant?”
“Forget it. I will visit them personally tomorrow.” Princ.i.p.al Hang sighed and said, “This Song Hang, in all likelihood came for Xiao Qing…”
The next day, when Princ.i.p.al Hang and Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma were preparing to go to Huatong International, Song Hang had already appeared at Song Jiang Industry University. The funny thing was that he actually held a dozen kebab skewers in his hand. On top of the kebab skewers, there was also a heating pad for fear that the cold weather would cool them down.
“That… my grandmother, can we sign the contract now?” Song Hang nodded and appeared in Xiao Qing’s office, holding a dozen kebabs in his hand. “This is what I brought for my grandpa. He said he likes to eat that…”
” En , just put it there. I will hand it over to him later.” Xiao Qing nodded very coldly with a glimpse of anger in her heart. She couldn’t refrain from mocking him sarcastically, “Eh, you have changed your att.i.tude quite fast. Were you disappointed that I didn’t go to your house yesterday?”
“How can I, my grandmother? My head was kicked by a donkey yesterday…” Song Hang said quickly, “I’ve just become clear-headed. Please consider me as mentally ill yesterday.”
“Have you brought the contract?” Xiao Qing was still expressionless, but her heart was delighted. This Song Hang, he really has the potential of being a villain. In comparison with Otchumyelov from the text of “A Chameleon” [1] that I learned during school, the speed of him changing his stance is pretty fast.
“I have brought it. I have brought it. It’s here!” Song Hang quickly opened his briefcase. Today, he didn’t even bring along his secretary because he did everything personally.
“Alright, I will give a call to Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma.” Xiao Qing nodded. She was also afraid of dragging it too long in case anything bad happened. The earlier the contract was signed the better so that Song Hang had no way to back out.
Just as Xiao Qing wanted to pick up the phone on her desk, the phone actually rang first.
“h.e.l.lo. Department of Computer Science of the Industry University.” Xiao Qing picked up the phone.
“Xiao Qing, this is Princ.i.p.al Hang. I’m planning to visit Huatong Trading Company with Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma and then speak to President Song. You don’t have to go…” The voice of Princ.i.p.al Hang came over the microphone.
“Wait, Princ.i.p.al Hang. Song Hang had come. He’s in my office. Just come over along with the lawyer and be prepared to sign the contract.” Xiao Qing said quickly.
” En ? What happened? You said that President Song is in your office? Sign the contract? You agreed to his price?” Princ.i.p.al Hang asked, confused.
“The price is the same as before… right, Song Hang?” Xiao Qing turned and asked Song Hang as the conversation moved on.
“Yes, indeed. The previous one in addition to a 10 percent discount, which is …” Song Hang quickly said. He was afraid that Yang Ming would get mad and look for him at his house. So, he didn’t wait for Yang Ming to speak and he lowered his quote.
In fact, Yang Ming also didn’t get any benefit from the price reduction. He did this only to help Xiao Qing as he was afraid that Xiao Qing would have difficulties with it. However, since Song Hang was willing to take the initiative to lower the price, Yang Ming wouldn’t have any opinions against it.
“It’s as such. Song Hang took the initiative to lower the price and made a 10% discount on the quote.” Xiao Qing said.
“Another 10% discount? Wait. I can’t comprehend it. Is it a discount on the new quote, or a discount on the old quote?” Princ.i.p.al Hang was a bit confused as he couldn’t understand what Xiao Qing meant.
“Discount on the original quote.” Xiao Qing said, “You will know once you come over.”
“Alright, wait for us. I will be there in a while.” Princ.i.p.al Hang found it rather odd. What is going on? Ten percent discount from the original price? How is that possible?
Song Hang isn’t dumb. How can he stomach such a big loss? But it’s no use to think about it at this moment. I can only decide after meeting up with Song Hang himself.
“Later, don’t call me grandmother. Call me Director Xiao.” Xiao Qing said, “Also, Yang Ming is my G.o.dbrother. Don’t go out and spread nonsense.”
“Yes, yes. I understand.” Song Hang nodded quickly. He smiled bitterly in his heart. Will I go out and spread nonsense? Am I sick? That’s a demon [2], I won’t mention him even if I have nothing to do. I still don’t want to die!
Not long after, Princ.i.p.al Hang and Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma came to Xiao Qing’s office, and there were lawyers coming along behind them.
“President Song, why are you still standing?” Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma glimpsed at Song Hang with surprise. Song Hang didn’t even sit on the sofa but was standing rather in Xiao Qing’s office. On the other hand, Xiao Qing was sitting firmly on the executive chair.
“It’s nothing. It’s nothing. I’m fine with just standing here. Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma, this is…” Song Hang asked about the person by Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma.
“This is Princ.i.p.al Hang.” Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma introduced.
“Princ.i.p.al Hang, nice to meet you.” Song Hang enthusiastically stepped forward and shook hands with Princ.i.p.al Hang rendering Princ.i.p.al Hang completely puzzled. Is this the insidious villain that Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma mentioned yesterday? Why is he so humble?
“Hi, President Song, what’s going on? I heard that your company had raised the price of the equipment five times higher?” Princ.i.p.al Hang asked.
“Nothing as such. I’m going to give you another 10 percent discount on the original quote!” Song Hang said quickly.
” Ah ?” Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma was also shocked. “Then yesterday, you were…”
“That contract doesn’t count…” Song Hang looked at Xiao Qing with some embarra.s.sment.
“Princ.i.p.al Hang, Song Hang had just said that his head was kicked by a donkey yesterday.” Xiao Qing said faintly.
” Ha ?” President Hang was confused. He was the elder of the university. Unlike Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma, he had a clear understanding of the grievances between Xiao Qing and Song Hang. But now that he heard Xiao Qing suddenly satirize Song Hang in front of so many people, he felt a little strange. Xiao Qing isn’t an insolent person. Since Song Hang has changed the contract, then there is no use to pursue further.
Unexpectedly, Song Hang nodded immediately, “Yes, dear grandmother… Oops, Director Xiao is right. I was kicked in the head by a donkey yesterday!”
Princ.i.p.al Hang and Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma had their eyes crossed with each other.I really don’t understand what happened to Song Hang today. How can his personality change so abruptly?
“President Song, are you alright?” Princ.i.p.al Hang asked with some concern. Who would say that he was kicked in the head by a donkey?
“Nothing, I’m fine. It’s just that I have recovered today and my mind is thinking normally right now. Come over and quickly sign the contract!” Song Hang shrugged with a smile.
“Well, let’s sign the contract now…” President Hang nodded. Although it was strange, since Song Hang said that he had no problem, he wouldn’t ask too much.
However, President Hang was still afraid of Song Hang having petty tricks. He had a few of his lawyers carefully read the contract several times.
“Princ.i.p.al Hang, Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma, there’s a bit of a problem with this contract…” the lawyer whispered.
There’s a problem? That’s beyond doubt! Princ.i.p.al Hang and Deputy Princ.i.p.al Ma had a chilling fear at the same time after hearing it. Of course, there will be a problem. President Hang quickly asked, “What’s the problem?”
