A change of terms?
Wang Yu's renewed request brought smiles to the faces of the delegation from Sam Nation.
Indeed, this kid talks a good game, but in the end, after hearing our conditions, he'll obediently yield and change his tune when offered a green card from Sam Nation, won't he?
How many elites in the world claim to boycott and despise Sam Nation with all their might?
But when the opportunity of a green card is presented, don't they all sheepishly flock forward, proclaiming how great it is?
That's right, the moon in their Sam Nation is indeed rounder than in your poor countries!
"Speak, what are your demands?"
Mr. Jett smiled confidently. For others, obtaining a green card from Sam Nation would be an arduous, if not impossible, task for people from the Federal Yuan, a country under economic and technological blockade.
But for those in the upper echelons, it was merely a matter of a few words.
Even their subordinates making a call would suffice; everything would be arranged!
This was their confidence.
"It's simple. Instead of the previous thirty percent price increase, I want a fifty percent increase!"
Wang Yu's words stunned everyone.
A fifty percent increase?
Are you robbing us?
Thirty percent was already outrageous, and now after all this, it's increased instead of decreased?
Mr. Jett's face immediately stiffened, his confident smile frozen on his lips.
"Are you sure you mean a fifty percent increase, not a decrease?"
Mr. Jett, gritting his teeth, practically roared the question.
The other influential figures from Sam Nation behind him also began to clamor.
The most vocal among them was a man with a hooked nose, Mr. Smith from Starship Shipyard, who had a prior unpleasant encounter with Wang Yu. This incident, coupled with the affair involving Jiangping Machinery Industrial Company, had further soured his disposition.
"Who do you think you are? For Sam Nation to deal with you would be as easy as crushing an ant! It wouldn't take much effort!"
Mr. Smith sneered, his words drawing agreement from many around him.
Indeed, who did he think he was? A mere small factory, daring to make outrageous demands with such an open mouth?
He had no idea of his own limitations!
"Oh? Is that so? Then by all means, go ahead and crush me."
Wang Yu chuckled, unconcerned.
"Of course, if any of you fall behind your competitors because of this... it will have nothing to do with me!"
Uh...
Wang Yu's words made everyone pause.
This damned kid!
Relying on his good luck and a slightly advanced technology, he's gotten carried away!
But the problem is, although everyone wants to get rid of him now, they are powerless.
Just as Wang Yu said, unless they can stand by and watch their competitors gain an advantage!
This is absolutely impossible! Business is war; who would allow their rivals to grow stronger?
Are you thinking of those state-owned companies with guaranteed profits? Cough!
This is truly a brilliant stratagem!
"Alright, we agree to your terms!"
After conferring amongst themselves, and after much deliberation, they finally delivered an answer, agreeing to Wang Yu's demands.
After all, circumstances dictated their actions; no one had a choice!
Of course, since they dared to agree, they were well-prepared to let this ignorant young man know the harsh realities of the world!
Exchanging glances, the influential figures from Sam Nation understood each other's intentions, their smiles turning exceptionally sinister.
Let this kid have his moment of arrogance for now.
Once they acquire the technology and fully master it, this kid will have no further use.
At that point, they would discard him and deal with him thoroughly!
With their global influence, they wouldn't even need to act themselves; a simple word from them would be enough for many to eagerly fall in line to deal with Wang Yu!
"Furthermore, I have another request."
Wang Yu spoke again.
"What other requests? Is there no end to this?"
The people from Sam Nation grew impatient. This kid was pushing his luck!
"It's just one last request!"
Wang Yu stated his condition with a smile.
"For all our contracts and agreements, I demand that all settlements be made in our Federal Yuan currency, the Federal Yuan Dollar!"
Indeed, this was one of Wang Yu's aspirations.
Not only did he want to promote his nation's industrial technology to the pinnacle of the world,
but he also wanted their currency to become a medium of exchange, free from foreign control!
Previously, Wang Yu had made the same demand to the people of West Continent. Although they were reluctant, they had no choice but to agree in the end.
And now, he was making the same demand of these people from Sam Nation without hesitation!
"That's right, settle in Federal Yuan Dollars!"
"Well done, Wang Yu!"
...
Not only Secretary Yang and Lin Chunfeng, but even the accompanying government staff members also became proud.
This was truly invigorating!
It was so satisfying to see these guys from Sam Nation unwilling but forced to grit their teeth!
Park Shu Sheng, standing nearby, looked on in disbelief. How was this possible?
How could the big shots from Sam Nation agree to such a ridiculous request?
This kid was getting too carried away, didn't he know his own limitations?
A smug smile spread across his face as he envisioned the leaders of Sam Nation rejecting Wang Yu's demands!
That's how it should be! Did he think those important figures were so easily swayed?
It was already a blessing for him that they hadn't sent their assistants to negotiate!
"Oh? Is that your only request?"
Mr. Jett smiled and asked Wang Yu.
"That's right, that's my only request."
Wang Yu nodded directly. This was his sole demand: all overseas transactions must be settled in their own Federal Yuan Dollars!
"Excellent, we can sign the contract immediately!"
Not only Mr. Jett, but even the influential figures from Sam Nation behind him agreed with strange expressions.
"What? You agreed just like that?"
Park Shu Sheng was somewhat embarrassed. Weren't you all big shots?
You are all world-class companies and enterprises,
Don't you care about your status?
Wouldn't your secretaries or assistants negotiate?
This deal was made so easily, without even discussing the price in detail?
When did business become this easy in the world?
Even their Sanjing Conglomerate wouldn't dare claim such a feat!
"Um, Mr. Jett, our Sanjing Conglomerate also has many promising projects. Would you be interested in exploring cooperation and investment opportunities?"
Park Shu Sheng asked tentatively, smacking his lips.
"Get lost! Don't let us see you again, or the Sanjing Conglomerate will face a siege and division from us!"
Gritting out the threatening words, Park Shu Sheng looked at the Sam Nation leaders with unfriendly eyes and felt as if he had stirred up a hornet's nest!
