Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 204

Xu Lei nodded slightly, but still told him to be careful recently.

"Did you hear that? Our reporter Mona just said that someone is reporting us."

"Investigate secretly, but don't make too much noise (if you get away with it)."

Xu Lei's expression was serious, and Xiao Qiang knew that Xu Lei was angry this time, so he quickly nodded.

"Don't worry, boss. I'll come and tell you as soon as I have any news about this."

Xu Lei knew he could trust him to handle things, so he entrusted everything to him.

So much happened in that one night that Xu Lei never imagined what should have been an ordinary night.

However, a dramatic change occurred, and suddenly mobile phones and pagers became worthless.

Many people seemed to have changed their minds overnight and no longer wanted to buy this batch of PHS phones.

He even asked friends abroad to bring him smartphones—those were things Jiang Tian had done before.

This batch of goods, which he had never seen before, cost him millions and ended up stuck with him.

Even the first one to break even didn't end up in their hands.

Jiang Tian was furious that very night.

He knew he had been outmaneuvered by Xu Lei again.

Chapter 221 One is willing to hit, the other is willing to be hit

Jiang Tian couldn't figure out at which point things went wrong.

She felt utterly helpless, even a little shocked that everything before her seemed to have been planned.

She had nowhere to hide, but Xiaolong Mobile was such a powerful connection.

How could something go wrong at this critical juncture?

He just felt that something was wrong with all of this.

Or perhaps it's because my subordinates are inefficient and clumsy that things have turned out this way.

So a million worries flashed through his mind.

It's possible that they can't pinpoint exactly where the problem lies.

His inner resentment and the feeling of being left behind made her feel that she could no longer find peace.

This was like a giant claw silently watching him.

It made him feel a little breathless, and Jiang Tian felt somewhat helpless.

"I'm going to see Xu Lei."

Even though Jiang Tian didn't know which joint was the problem, he was certain he had seen Xu Lei.

Xu Lei must have known about all the things involved, and she had a vague sense of worry and a certain idea in her heart.

"Boss, let's check the production volume first. I'm afraid I might miss out on so many opportunities."

The people below were also quietly trying to persuade him, saying that he knew Jiang Tian was just angry with Xu Lei.

But this is not the time to be angry; of course, we need to be on our toes.

We need to come up with a solution first, otherwise we'll really end up with nothing.

By then it will be too late to regret it; all the workers in these factories are watching closely.

However, they were also worried that things might go wrong, and then it wouldn't be a matter of just reasoning with Xu Lei alone.

"I just don't understand why Xu Lei sold that phone line back then. How could he be so sure that I would be the one to buy it?"

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at his subordinates.

Little did she know the seriousness and problems involved. She looked at him with her head down, refusing to speak.

He knew that at this moment, the boss's emotions must have reached a breaking point.

If he spoke again, he would only annoy his boss, so he had no choice but to remain silent.

"Forget it, you probably don't know either. Even I don't know how I gradually fell into his trap."

Xu Lei was packing his things to fly to the airport.

Looking at Gao Qilan, who had been waiting at his door for a long time, he saw a rare hint of excitement in her eyes.

"You too, I'll have someone pick you up from the airport, why did you insist on driving here yourself?"

I specifically bought a midday flight so you could sleep a little longer.

Xu Lei cared deeply about him; how could Gao Qilan not know that?

"I finally managed to get a day off, and since I haven't driven in a long time, I decided to drive out for a stroll."

He looked happy after saying that.

"So, are you still angry about this trip?"

Xu Lei spoke with a smile in his eyes.

Gao Qilan had very little luggage, just a small suitcase, which surprised Xu Lei.

"I only brought this much stuff."

Gao Qilan hadn't traveled much, but after thinking it over, this was all she could bring.

"I was thinking of letting you go out and rest, and don't you young girls love taking pictures when you travel? Why did you only bring this little bit of stuff?"

After he finished speaking, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"It's nothing. I just think less luggage means less burden. If I need anything, I can just buy it there. I'm not that particular."

Xu Lei smiled slightly at her, but just as the two were about to leave, they discovered...

The other party had already noticed that Jiang Tian was staring intently at him.

Their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

Xu Lei knew he probably wouldn't be able to leave anytime soon; he looked like he was there to interrogate him.

"Boss, how about I go and handle this?"

After speaking, with a slight smile in his eyes, Jiang Tian knew that the problem lay on this side.

Jiang Tian must have come to demand an explanation, and he didn't want his men to get hurt again, so he shook his head.

"You guys really don't know much about this. Let me go and meet him."

Xu Lei finished speaking with a hint of helplessness, while Gao Qilan looked on with some concern, seeing the man's menacing manner.

Moreover, they didn't all have a kind face; they all carried a sense of shock and helplessness.

So I wanted to show him what kind of situation it was that made me so embarrassed.

"Oh, Mr. Jiang, what's wrong? Why did you come here so angry? Look how scared you've made my people here."

Xu Lei's eyes practically spit fire as he looked at Jiang Tian and the car full of people.

Xu Lei first ordered his men to put away their weapons, but to his surprise, the man refused to back down.

"Don't try that on me, Xu Lei. I really didn't expect that everyone in business would flatter each other like that."

"Let's just leave it at that, but I didn't expect you to be so cunning."

Upon hearing this, Xu Lei narrowed his eyes slightly. He couldn't agree with these words and didn't approve of what the man had just told him.

"Just say what you want to say, don't be sarcastic."

"I know you're in a bad mood because your business has suffered losses recently, but I didn't show up when I launched Xiaolong phones."

"You didn't show up at the time, so logically those two should have paid for it. Why are you acting crazy here?"

Xu Lei's sudden question left Jiang Tian speechless.

He knew he shouldn't have come here, but the money had indeed ended up in his hands.

How could he not be anxious? His eyes were practically spitting fire.

He doesn't know how things got to where they are today.

But Xiao Dong himself hasn't even tasted any benefit from this phone yet.

He felt a little helpless and even a little shocked that he was about to hand it over to someone else.

Knowing that things have come to this point, everyone is feeling bad.

But no matter what, we must stand tall and see things through to the end.

Otherwise, the pressure and dangers they will face in the future will be far more than just this little bit.

"In business, there are gains and losses. I never knew that Xiaodong's phone would turn out like this overnight."

"You know how unwilling I was when I was selling the Xiaodong mobile phone line."

"I know this line is a quick way to make money, which is why I'm reluctant to sell it."

"If it were as you say, I would have predicted it long ago if you bought this line."

"I'm already overjoyed, why would I bother with all this? You know I've never been one to put on an act."

As Xu Lei spoke, a slight smile appeared in his eyes.

It was all just a coincidence and an accident; Jiang Tian seemed to have been persuaded by Xu Lei's words.

But then he quickly shook his head.

Chapter 222 Unraveling the Mystery

"You almost tricked me again."

How could Jiang Tian not be angry that he hadn't even enjoyed a single benefit from this line?

The fact that this one person was completely eradicated left him with an overwhelming sense of resentment that he could no longer express.

The more arrogant they were in the business world a couple of days ago, the more fearful they are now.

And he also knew that he could no longer understand anything about everything in front of him.

He's been completely fooled by Xu Lei.

Now that he has to come here again to embarrass himself, how could he not be furious?

Xu Lei also quietly advised him.

"Although the market is tight now, it doesn't mean that not a single Xiaolong phone can be sold."

Instead of wasting your time arguing with me, you should think about how to resolve this matter.

After he finished speaking, Xu Lei smiled slightly and patted him on the shoulder heavily.

Tell him that none of this has anything to do with him.

Gao Qilan watched anxiously from inside the house.

Fearing that something might happen to Xu Lei, her eyes also held a hint of worry and shock.

"It's alright, don't worry. Miss Gao, our boss has dealt with these kinds of thugs countless times."

"This guy lost money in his business and insisted on coming here to show off. Don't worry, we'll take care of it in a bit."

Xiao Qiang offered some words of comfort, but Gao Qilan was extremely worried, and the two seemed to be arguing fiercely.

"Are you sure you don't need to go and help? This guy seems really angry, and I'm worried that we might not be able to reach an agreement."

Jiang Tian is the most cowardly; no matter how angry he is, he would never cross his own bottom line.

Moreover, Xu Lei was no pushover either; even though he felt aggrieved, he was not one to be trifled with.

At this moment, we must remain quiet and patient, and endure this matter to the very end.

Otherwise, he'll suffer later, Xu Lei whispered to him.

"Mobile phones aren't obsolete that quickly, and it's also about the preferences of the people who buy them."

"How can I be so sure of everything? You should think about how this storyline should end."

"If you're angry with me, there's nothing I can do to help you, no matter what."

After saying that, he simply patted him hard on the shoulder and told him to take care of himself.
