"Kneel and apologize?"
Wang Yu was stunned, then heard Yamazaki continue to speak slowly,
"Our Tianyi Steel Company is not a place where any cat or dog can challenge. Since you insist on challenging, you must bear the corresponding price!
If you lose, you must publicly admit your mistakes in front of everyone, kneel and apologize for your overestimation of your own abilities in challenging us, and repent deeply!
Only if you agree to this condition will we accept your challenge. Otherwise, if anyone comes to challenge us, won't it mean that anyone can challenge us, and we'll have nothing else to do but deal with various challenges every day?"
After Yamazaki finished speaking slowly, he scrutinized Wang Yu with burning eyes.
The meaning of his words was simple: you want to attract attention and gain fame by riding on our coattails, right?
You can, we'll give you this opportunity, but while we make you famous, we'll also ruin your reputation!
Otherwise, if even one person pops out from some unknown corner to challenge us, will Tianyi Steel Company still have any face?
Of course, he proposed such a humiliating demand also with the intention of making Wang Yu back down.
After all, as the world's number one, accepting a challenge from such a nobody would not bring them glory even if they won. As for losing... heh, that was impossible.
"Yes, I agree."
To Yamazaki's surprise, Wang Yu agreed without hesitation and then looked at Yamazaki with a dignified gaze.
"If I am not as skilled as you, I will kneel and apologize as you demand, and repent for my mistakes. However, if I am fortunate enough to win, I hope your company can also agree to my conditions."
"Conditions? What conditions? You still expect to negotiate terms with Tianyi Steel Company? Wang Yu, have you not woken up?"
Yang Song scoffed at Wang Yu from the side, but neither Wang Yu nor Yamazaki paid him any mind.
"I know what you mean, you want to give up the bet agreement from that steel mill back then, don't you?"
Yamazaki chuckled. He had done his homework and knew the reason why Wang Yu was coming forward.
"As long as you have the ability to defeat us, Tianyi Steel Company will directly abandon the bet agreement signed with Jiangyang County Steel Mill back then and officially declare it invalid!"
Yamazaki said directly to Wang Yu.
"Can you, a supervisor, represent Tianyi Steel Company?"
Wang Yu glanced at Yamazaki, clearly worried that he would go back on his word later, as this was no small matter.
"What do you mean by that? Do you know who our Supervisor Yamazaki is? Do you think he would lie to you?"
Takemoto was furious and said to Wang Yu, but his actions were immediately stopped by Yamazaki.
"Words are not enough, a written agreement is proof. I am willing to sign a written agreement with you to prevent either party from breaking the contract.
As for whether I can represent Tianyi Steel Company, please rest assured, I have this small authority as a supervisor. After all..."
At this point, Yamazaki's tone paused slightly, and then he said indifferently, "For you, this steel mill is very important and remarkable.
But for us, we can only regret to inform you that it is merely one of our countless insignificant operations. As a supervisor, I can fully make the decision."
After speaking, Yamazaki slightly bowed to Wang Yu as a gesture of courtesy.
But the arrogance and haughtiness that came from his bones were palpable to everyone.
Just as he said, for the world's number one, Tianyi Steel Company, this was just one of countless preliminary arrangements. With his authority as a supervisor, he was fully qualified to make the decision.
Moreover, what he truly needed was just Wang Yu's attitude of apology. In the end, the outcome would only be about the method they used to win.
Would it be elegant or brutal? That was all.
As for the possibility of losing?
Heh, don't be ridiculous. It would be more likely for him, Yamazaki, to believe that the island of tomorrow would sink than that.
Yamazaki smiled confidently and extended his hand to Wang Yu politely.
Wang Yu also smiled subtly and extended his hand to shake Yamazaki's.
"Good, excellent!"
"Then let us make a written agreement as proof!"
Both sides had reached a consensus.
"Mr. Yamazaki, what exactly is going on? How did this involve the bet agreement for our steel mill?"
Yang Song asked curiously from the side, wondering why their conversation involved the steel mill and why he, as the plant director, had no idea? What was going on?
However, Yamazaki clearly had no intention of responding to Yang Song's questions, and only looked at Wang Yu.
"Very good. In that case, we will officially accept your challenge in seven days. I happen to have brought in experts from across the country."
Yamazaki pointed to the experts behind him and took a step forward towards Wang Yu, "We will let you backward and frog-in-the-well fellows witness what advanced technology is!"
"Very good. Since you have set the time, then the method will be decided by me."
Wang Yu stepped forward without any politeness, confronting him,
"I should also let you know that there are always people better than you!"
Yamazaki laughed heartily at Wang Yu's words and waved his hand generously, "Okay, you can propose any challenge method you wish. We at Tianyi Steel Company will accept them all. Feel free to choose what you are good at, so that you will lose convincingly!"
"Very well, then let us compete in our steelmaking techniques in terms of sharpness, strength, and toughness, with the final victory determined by a best-of-three format, how about it?" Wang Yu was equally direct.
"I will have someone send you the details tomorrow, so that you cannot use the excuse that it was not your strong suit as a reason for failure!"
"Good, it's a deal!"
"A word from a gentleman is as good as gold!"
Wang Yu and Yamazaki looked at each other, with absolute confidence and pride in their eyes.
"I say, what exactly happened?"
Yang Song kept interrupting from the side, trying to make his presence felt, but unfortunately, both of them treated him as invisible.
To Yamazaki, Yang Song was just a sycophant, and this was not a place for him to speak.
As for Wang Yu, he was too lazy to waste more words on someone who was doomed to not last long.
Yamazaki said no more and immediately had his entourage arrange for a less-than-ideal room, without asking Wang Yu to give up the best room, and took his technical experts to rest early.
Wang Yu turned and left without a word.
Yang Song, who still hadn't fully reacted, was left standing there in a daze.
...
Leaving Jiangyang Grand Hotel, Wang Yu directly found Boss Zhao and handed him a tape.
"Here is some evidence regarding Yang Song. Find a way to make him pay for his crimes."
