Chapter 299 The Situation Reversed in an Instant
Ji Jingshen's attitude was even more forceful than Song Qianyi's.
"If Mr. Andrei really wants to acquire the Cheng Group, then let's see who has the best skills."
Trying to freeload off him? Don't you even know if he'd be willing?
After the two left, Song Qianyi was always worried that Andrei would use other means to compete maliciously.
"I read the investigation report on him, and he's not a good person. Should we make some preparations in advance to prevent him from doing anything underhanded?"
"Don't worry, I've already had people prepare in advance. I'm not afraid of him making a move, I'm just afraid he won't."
Faced with Ji Jingshen's reassurance, Song Qianyi felt slightly relieved. However, neither of them expected that Andrei would remain silent for some time afterward.
Even when Ji Jingshen sent people to investigate, all they found was that he was quietly staying in the hotel and had not gone out.
This is very wrong.
"Keep a close eye on him, and also on the group of people he brought with him. Notify me immediately if there is any unusual activity."
Ji Jingshen frowned, a bad feeling suddenly creeping into his heart, a feeling that grew stronger in the final stages of the acquisition.
"Jing Shen is in trouble. The research institute that worked for Sui Sui Pharmaceutical has been acquired."
After all, it concerned her daughter's health. She sent people to keep an eye on it as soon as she received the news, and after so much time had passed, she had already arranged for her own people to work at the research institute.
But just now, someone from the research institute messaged her saying that it had been acquired by a mysterious person.
How could she feel at ease? Moreover, she had a premonition that the person who acquired the research institute was someone they knew.
Ji Jingshen frowned. He thought the same thing as Song Qianyi, but he immediately guessed who had made the move.
Andrei.
"So what do we do now? If he uses this to blackmail us, wouldn't we be in a very passive position? Sui Sui's illness still requires this medicine."
In other matters, Song Qianyi would be absolutely calm, but when it comes to her daughter, she can't stay calm.
"Don't worry, he must have found out about Sui Sui's illness. Since he acquired this research institute, he just wants to make us back down in the acquisition of the company."
Ji Jingshen kept calming her down, and after Song Qianyi calmed down a bit, he took the initiative to meet with Andrei.
However, the person who answered his call was Andrei's secretary.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ji, our CEO is currently busy, and you may have to wait a few days."
The secretary made no attempt to hide her disdain for them. If it weren't for the president giving her face last time, they wouldn't have succeeded until now. If they had obediently listened and transferred the acquisition rights to them, none of this would have happened. But it's not too late now.
They will always have the upper hand.
"You!" Song Qianyi was furious and wanted to go forward to argue with him, but Ji Jingshen stopped her.
"When will he have time? After all, even if he's busy, he still needs to consider the cooperation. If it drags on for too long, someone else might snatch the cooperation away, and there's nothing we can do about it."
The secretary, who had been arrogant, changed her expression slightly upon hearing his words. After hesitating for a moment, she still told Andre about it, since she knew very well why their president was here.
If the acquisition goes wrong because of him, he'll be in deep trouble; their CEO won't show any mercy.
"Wait a moment, I'll go inform the president."
After saying that, he hung up the phone. Ji Jingshen was not in a hurry. Instead, he put his phone on the table and waited quietly.
Three minutes later, I received a call from Andrei himself.
"I heard that President Ji has a collaboration he wants to discuss with me. How about we meet at the coffee shop where we met last time?"
The person on the phone sounded very smug, but Ji Jingshen ignored his attitude and agreed directly.
……
"President Ji, I didn't expect to see you again so soon."
He greeted them politely, but remained seated without moving an inch.
The man was incredibly arrogant. Ji Jingshen frowned slightly, but didn't care about his attitude. Instead, he directly stated his purpose.
“We can withdraw from the acquisition project, but you have to sell the research institute to me; I can pay the original price.”
However, Andrei did not agree and instead made even more outrageous demands.
"Everyone knows that President Ji is very capable in Beijing. He can change many people with just a casual gesture. And I had a very pleasant chat with President Ji today. How about you give me this project as a gift?"
Andrei seemed oblivious to the darkening expressions on the faces of the two people opposite him, and continued, "Of course, in exchange, I can sell you the research institute that President Ji wants at market price. You know, when I bought it, I paid more than double the price."
This is utterly outrageous. The money spent on buying the research institute was negligible. On the contrary, they poured so much effort and resources into that project, and now they're being used as a stepping stone for this person.
Song Qianyi was so angry that her face turned ashen, and Ji Jingshen was no better off.
It seems this man is so arrogant that he's forgotten whose territory he's on.
"If I'm not mistaken, the reason you came to China this time is simply because something happened in your family, and you want to prove yourself."
The man paused slightly before continuing, "While the research institute you acquired is what I want, it's not unique in the world. I just need to find one like it; it will only take some time and effort."
Upon hearing his words, Andrei, who had been smug, instantly lost his composure and looked at him with a sinister gaze.
Damn it, he actually got outmaneuvered.
"What do you want to do?"
After failing to regain control, Ji Jingshen relaxed completely and no longer paid any attention to the man opposite him who was jumping up and down in anger.
"I originally planned to have a proper discussion with you about cooperation today, but Mr. Andrei doesn't seem to appreciate it. In that case, let's stop here. We will definitely not give up the acquisition project. As for the research institute you mentioned, we will find another one."
The sudden reversal of the situation caught everyone off guard, especially Song Qianyi, whose eyes lit up. She knew that Ji Jingshen would not sit idly by and wait for his doom.
If you want the acquisition rights of the Cheng Group, you can hand over the research institute first; otherwise, there's no point in discussing anything further.
Andrei gritted his teeth as he stared at the two people opposite him. He had to admit that Ji Jingshen had a very good grasp of the situation. If he couldn't win this project, the family would quickly send someone else to take over his work, and he would become a complete expendable pawn. He knew very well what would happen to someone abandoned by their family.
