Chapter 189: Not a second or third time
"Walking?"
The man was surprised and looked left and right, asking in confusion: "Do you have others?"
Luo Tianrui and the others instinctively looked at Shen Ci. It was clear that they were to follow her lead. Even though all three felt that this opportunity should be grasped, it was a fact that they were inexplicably slighted. The other party didn't have a single apology or explanation, which was undoubtedly a humiliation to them.
They could not care about their own face, but they couldn't not care about Shen Ci's face.
After all, the cooperation with the Gu Group was negotiated by Shen Ci.
Seeing everyone looking at Shen Ci, the man also instinctively cast his gaze on Shen Ci. The little girl's dress and temperament were completely different from the others, but looking at her appearance, one could tell at a glance that she was still a college student.
Just as he was muttering in his heart, he saw Shen Ci suddenly walk forward a few steps and stand in front of him. The man was stunned and was about to speak, but heard Shen Ci ask with a cold expression: "We scheduled nine o'clock, right?"
The man frowned upon hearing this, clearly hearing the displeasure in Shen Ci's tone.
He pretended not to know: "I don't know about that. The team leader asked me to come down to find someone, so I came down."
As he spoke, he showed an impatient expression and sized up the few people, then said: "What? Angry because you had to wait a while? Our project team is very busy, and sometimes it's easy to forget the time."
"Then, are you still going up?"
His attitude was indifferent, as if as long as they said they wouldn't go, he would leave immediately without any hesitation.
Is this the arrogance of a big company's employees?
Shen Ci couldn't help but sneer.
If this person had said "Sorry, I was too busy and forgot to pay attention to the time," she would have given each other another chance. But she had always eaten soft and not hard. Since that was the case, she didn't have to force this step for the other party to get off.
"Since your project team is so busy, we won't go up to disturb you. When you have time, you can schedule another time with us when we can meet on time."
Shen Ci said this indifferently and turned away, leaving the other party in shock.
Luo Tianrui and the others saw this and followed without saying a word.
The man was stunned for a long time before reacting, snorting disdainfully: "Not much ability but a big temper. Opportunity is right in front of you and you don't know how to cherish it. Sooner or later, you'll regret it."
Children nowadays are really impatient.
Returning to the project team, the team was testing a new piece of data. Hao Peng stood in front of the machine with his arms crossed. Seeing the man return alone, he couldn't help but ask with a puzzled expression: "Where are the people?"
"Got impatient, left."
"Left?"
"Yeah, that project team doesn't seem to be led by that Luo guy. A very beautiful little girl came today. She said to let us schedule another time with them when we can meet on time."
Like the man, Hao Peng snorted upon hearing this: "I'm busy all day long. If it weren't for the manager pushing this matter on me, I wouldn't bother dealing with this kind of grassroots team with a heart higher than the sky."
"Then—then should we schedule another time with them?"
Hao Peng glared at him: "Schedule my ass. Gave them a chance, don't cherish it, who's to blame? Do they really think the Gu Group's team is that free?"
In the square outside the building, Shen Ci looked at the three people in front of her who were a bit frustrated and defeated, and said softly: "I know you feel it's a pity, but I think people must have principles and bottom lines in doing things. I don't believe that such a large company is usually so unpunctual when talking about business cooperation with others."
"In my place, whether they are deliberately slighting or unintentionally neglecting, I won't accept it if they don't apologize."
"We urgently need to reach cooperation with them, but we cannot cooperate with them on our knees. If we can't lift our heads today, it will only make them feel we are easier to bully."
"I know you are worried that the subsequent things will have no place to fall. Don't worry, I will definitely negotiate with other companies." Shen Ci promised confidently to prevent the military heart from collapsing due to today's incident.
Everyone understood Shen Ci's meaning. The big store bullies the customers. The Gu Group's behavior today was indeed unacceptable.
"We believe in you." Luo Tianrui nodded, not wanting to dwell on these things anymore. He just felt that listening to Shen Ci was definitely right.
Yuanshuai and Paipai also nodded: "Yes, there isn't only one artificial intelligence company in the country. If there's no Gu Group, there are others. We will definitely find another company with intent."
No Gu Group?
Shen Ci didn't think so. She looked up at the imposing Gu Group building, her expression deep as she said in a low voice: "That may not be the case. As long as our project can achieve the expected results, it won't be long before the Gu Group turns back to beg us."
Director Li's side had already started the court session. Shen Ci didn't want to delay anymore, let Senior Brother Luo and the others go back and wait for news, while she took a taxi to the court.
On the way, Shen Ci dialed the phone number on Jiang Yuanliang's business card again.
This was the third time she had dialed this number.
The first two times, his assistant answered, saying the first time that Chairman Jiang was not convenient to answer the phone, and the second time that Chairman Jiang was on a business trip in Xuecheng, and that matters in Longcheng would be contacted after Chairman Jiang returned.
Throughout the whole process, she only explained that her surname was Shen, and she was dismissed by the other party before she could even introduce herself clearly.
I don't know why, but she could always feel that the assistant on the other end of the phone had a very strong defensive psychology, and I don't know if it was her illusion.
As the saying goes, not a second or third time. After being dealt with twice, Shen Ci decided to change her method this time.
According to previous events, Shen Ci felt that this Uncle Jiang Yuanliang was a person who knew how to repay kindness, so when the phone was connected, Shen Ci said directly: "Hello, please tell Chairman Jiang that Shen Jingjing, who saved him once in Shengang, has something to find him." ===== CHAPTER 190 =====
Throughout the entire call, she had only stated that her surname was Shen, and before she could even clearly introduce herself, she had been dismissed by the other party.
She didn't know why, but she could always sense that the assistant on the other end of the line seemed to have a strong sense of defensiveness; she didn't know if it was just her imagination.
As the saying goes, "once and twice is enough, but a third time is too much." Having been brushed off twice already, Shen Ci decided to try a different approach this time.
Based on previous events, Shen Ci felt that this Uncle Jiang Yuanliang was a person who repaid kindness, so after the call connected, Shen Ci spoke directly: "Hello, please tell Chairman Jiang that Shen Jingjing, who saved him once in Shengang City, has something to discuss with him."
