I walk sideways in the game world
Chapter 265: Business encounters obstacles and conspiracy emerges
"Boss Qian, I agree to your conditions." Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath and said with a firm look in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Xia Lin looked at Ren Xiaoyao in disbelief, wanting to speak up to stop her, but a look from Ren Xiaoyao stopped her. He knew Xia Lin was doing this for his own good, but he had other plans. While Boss Qian's conditions were harsh, he wasn't going to accept them completely; he was using them as a last resort.
"Great! That's straightforward!" Boss Qian's eyes flashed, and he slammed the table and laughed out loud, "I love working with bold people like Mr. Ren!"
In the end, Ren Xiaoyao only accepted a small portion of the loan from Boss Qian, barely enough to raise the funds to participate in the bidding project of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters. He knew that if he tried to take advantage of the tiger, he would be doomed if he was not careful. His only goal was to win the final victory in this gamble.
The Chamber of Commerce headquarters' bidding fair was held as scheduled, with business elites from all over the country gathered in a solemn and dignified atmosphere. Ren Xiaoyao, dressed in a sharp suit, stood among the crowd with a bright look, showing no sign of timidity due to his financial difficulties.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today the Chamber of Commerce is launching a brand new overseas business project, which is full of opportunities and challenges..." President Wang stood on the stage and gave a concise introduction to the project.
When it was Ren Xiaoyao's turn to take the stage, he took a deep breath and calmly and confidently presented his carefully prepared business plan. His unique vision, novel ideas, and precise analysis of the overseas market won the admiration of many in the audience.
However, at this moment, a sarcastic voice rang out from the crowd, "Mr. Ren's plan is certainly a good one, but it overlooks a crucial issue: risk! The overseas market is ever-changing, and who can guarantee success?"
The speaker was none other than Ren Xiaoyao's rival, Shopkeeper Zhao. He had long ago formed an alliance with several merchants who were in competition with Ren Xiaoyao, and now they joined forces, constantly disparaging Ren Xiaoyao's plans and attempting to nip them in the bud.
"That's right. Mr. Ren is a novice in the business world after all and lacks experience. It would be safer to leave such a large project to someone more experienced."
Facing everyone's doubts, Ren Xiaoyao remained calm and talked freely, explaining every detail of the plan, every possible risk, and the response strategies one by one.
However, after hearing Ren Xiaoyao's plan, President Wang frowned slightly and fell into deep thought...
Chairman Wang paced back and forth across the spacious room, his hands behind his back, his brow furrowed. Ren Xiaoyao's plan was indeed bold and novel, showcasing the youthful drive and initiative. But as Shopkeeper Zhao had said, the risks were equally enormous. The Chamber of Commerce needed stability, not risk.
"President, what do you think of Mr. Ren's plan?" Butler Sun put a cup of tea on the table and asked softly.
President Wang sighed and shook his head. "Mr. Ren's plan is certainly good, but he is too young and inexperienced. I'm worried..."
"But, the kind of person that Manager Zhao is..." Butler Sun hesitated to speak. He knew that Manager Zhao had extensive influence in the Chamber of Commerce and was a sinister and cunning person. He was afraid that he had no good intentions in targeting Ren Xiaoyao this time.
"I will make my own decision on this matter. You can leave first." President Wang waved his hand, signaling Butler Sun not to mention it again.
Meanwhile, Ren Xiaoyao didn't give up. He keenly sensed that the opposition against him was too deliberate, suggesting someone was behind the scenes. He began a covert investigation, eventually learning from some Chamber of Commerce insiders that it was Shopkeeper Zhao who was behind the scheme. Shopkeeper Zhao had bribed these individuals to spread unfavorable rumors within the Chamber of Commerce, and even secretly bribed some Chamber members with whom he had close ties to oppose his plan at the bidding meeting.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, why are you targeting me like this?" Ren Xiaoyao found Shopkeeper Zhao and asked straight to the point.
Shopkeeper Zhao took a sip of his tea with a forced smile. "Mr. Ren, you're joking. I'm just being honest. Your plan is too risky. I'm doing this for the sake of the Chamber of Commerce."
"You don't have to pretend anymore. I already know that it was you who bribed those people..." Ren Xiaoyao's tone was cold, his eyes were like torches, and he looked directly into the eyes of Shopkeeper Zhao.
The smile on Shopkeeper Zhao's face finally faded. He put down his teacup, a sinister glint in his eyes. "Ren Xiaoyao, I advise you not to refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit! Who do you think you are? A greenhorn, you dare to fight me?"
"Whether I am qualified or not is not up to you to decide." Ren Xiaoyao sneered and turned away.
After returning to his residence, Ren Xiaoyao told Xia Lin the results of his investigation. After hearing this, Xia Lin frowned, "This Shopkeeper Zhao is so despicable!"
"What should we do now?" Ren Xiaoyao rubbed his eyebrows and felt powerless.
"Why don't we tell President Wang what Manager Zhao has done and let him make the decision for us!" Xia Lin suggested.
"It's useless," Ren Xiaoyao shook his head. "We have no evidence, and we'll be blamed instead."
"But..." Xia Lin wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ren Xiaoyao, "I have a solution..."
"I know what you're worried about," Ren Xiaoyao said, walking to the window and gazing at the distant street scene. His tone was calm but a hint of fatigue lingered. "We're isolated and helpless right now. We have no evidence. If we rashly go to President Wang, we'll only alert him."
Xia Lin walked over to him and gently took his hand. "But if we do nothing, are we just going to watch Manager Zhao succeed?" She knew this project was crucial to Ren Xiaoyao. They had invested a lot of money and energy upfront, and if they couldn't successfully complete it, they would face a huge debt crisis.
Ren Xiaoyao held her hand in his, his eyes firm. "Don't worry, I won't give up." He turned around and looked at Xia Lin with a stern gaze. "You're right. We can't just sit there and wait for death. Since a head-on confrontation won't work, we can only outsmart them."
"Do you have a solution?" A glimmer of hope ignited in Xia Lin's eyes.
Ren Xiaoyao walked to his desk and spread out a blueprint containing his carefully crafted business plan. He picked up a pen and quickly scanned the blueprint, his mind racing with thoughts.
"Shopkeeper Zhao's concerns are not without reason," Ren Xiaoyao said thoughtfully. "While my plan is novel, it does carry certain risks. If I can mitigate the risks while maintaining innovation, perhaps I can allay the concerns of President Wang and the other Chamber of Commerce members."
Charlene looked at the man before her. Even in the face of adversity, he maintained a cool head and an unyielding will. She believed he would find a solution.
For the next few days, Ren Xiaoyao practically shut himself in his room, refining his business plan without sleep. He meticulously analyzed every detail of the market, anticipated potential risks, and devised corresponding countermeasures. He repeatedly deduced the feasibility of his plan, striving for perfection.
Finally, on the morning of the third day, Ren Xiaoyao put down his pen and a long-lost smile appeared on his face. He picked up the revised plan, his eyes gleaming with confidence.
"Xia Lin, get ready, we're going to visit President Wang!"
