Chapter 44: Bai Chang Slayed The First Corporate Meeting
[POV Bai Chang]
We reached his office.
As Xiao Wei is on 20th floor, using sample production machines for his latest designs, we will use that time to deal with these people in conference hall.
"Qiang let us first deal with them." I said.
"Okay, as you wish, my queen."
We walked into a conference room adjacent to his office. The place is fully made up of glass on all its sides except the floor and the wall it shared with Qiang's office.
The conference room faced the panoramic view of the Economic Park as well as the capital city.
It really stoked the vanity inside these businessmen.
I walked straight to the middle of the conference room and Qiang held out the centre chair for me.
I take seat and finally face the people present.
"Good Morning, gentlemen. Pardon our delay, as we were not aware of your arrival."
"Mrs Hu, please it is us who arrived unannounced." Mr Shen spoke up.
"So Mr Shen, how may we the Hu Corporations help you?" I asked them.
There is a silence in the room.
"Gentlemen, we are all busy people cut to the chase, rather than going round and round."
There is still silence in the room.
"Great then, adios everyone, it seems we have nothing to talk, so you may get back to your respective work as should we, for socialisation purpose we may get together at weekends."
I simply refuted there attempt to force us into passive by making us to first broach the interest topic. I simply called an end to the meeting. If these stubborn fools do not start talking about the work or proposal they are here to propose then they can forever hold their silence.
It is not like my entire business is dependent on them.
While it is the other way around instead. They need us to earn profits in the clothing market.
And we can get the fabrics and raw materials imported at much cheaper price from the source market.
"Mrs Hu, do not take offence " someone spoke up.
I raised my eyebrows and his voice died down.
"This is business time, we are all seasoned merchants, speak freely and to the points, if you want to do business with us. Otherwise the exit is behind you, to your left. You may leave do not waste your or my time." I spoke with a strict undertone; to express this is my final call for their purpose. Either they speak or they leave.
They looked towards Qiang, only to be disappointed.
"Mrs Hu, we understand the market potential as well as the upper hand you have in the market. We would like to collaborate with the Hu Corporations, to take a stable path to international market." Mr Qing spoke up from the crowd.
"Now see, was it that difficult to speak up for your interests, we are all sensible people here. If the conditions proposed are justified, we have a deal to go with, what is there to deliberate?
You people just wasted 15minutes, 32:25 seconds of my time, while I can only estimate, how much of your time did you waste? All this could have been avoided with some straight conversations. Now, isn't it the case!" I implied coldly and explained it to them.
"Mr Hu, how do you propose we go forward with the proposal?" Mr Shen finally turned to Qiang and asked him.
"We will open public quotients for this project to give equal opportunities to MNC's as well as small businesses."
This surprised all the people present here. But they soon recovered and got a grip on themselves.
Qiang continued, "It is not like we deliberately took this step rather you people never gave us the opportunity to announce our proposal publicly. We already signed our cooperation with the government and both the cultural sector and the public sector would collaborate to introduce our clothing line on international platforms. As part of country's textile directives we would work closely with the party to develop our raw textile market both inside and outside the country."
These people looked like someone snatched their cake from right under their nose.
"Gentlemen, you still have the edge over your competitors, as you are privy to this crucial information while your rivals aren't." I kindly reminded these poor souls.
After listening to what I said, it seems that they finally started to breathe again.
They got to realise the key points and immediately bided goodbye, to work on a winnable proposal.
As they left they all thanked us for the inside information.
I see Qiang looking at me with overflowing admiration.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"My Queen, you slayed them, I love the way you deal with these people, to tell you the truth it turned me on." He said sincerely.
My cheeks flushed because of what he said, he walked towards me and together we overlook the skyline from the conference room.
'It is very empowering.'
