Chapter 66: Her Highness Caitlin
In the conference room of the Ladder Building in Fenway District, Zhou Ming, Lin Muqing, and lawyer Allen were talking with Tong Gang and Li Cheng about the cooperation contract.
This sounds very weird, obviously Lin Muqing is the chairman of the Gangcheng United Investment Fund, but she wants to talk with Zhou Ming and Tong Gang and Li Cheng, which is also no way, some things are not clear to the truth, who makes Lin Muqing Zhou Ming's woman, but a woman, it will be easy to be emotional, especially on the premise of the man she loves.
This is the nature of women, Tong Gang and Li Cheng don't dare to bet on Lin Muqing's sanity, so all the negotiations will be handled by the two directors of them.
"Mr. Tong Gang and Mr. Li Cheng, I had no problem with this agreement in principle at that time, but there was still a lack of some division of liability and risk in the operation and transfer and management of overseas funds, which is very important, I don't know if this is an oversight, or is there any other consideration?"
Faced with Allen's question, Tong Gang said with a smile: "Lawyer Allen, I don't think it's a problem, because this should be a very lenient term for you, and I myself trust Mr. Zhou Ming very much, so some rules don't have to die so much." β
Since Tong Gang spoke, Zhou Ming also took over and said: "Chairman Tong, I think that the more you trust, the more these rules must be set, otherwise if there is any accident in the future, it will be troublesome if you don't even have a basis, and it is said that trading is not benevolent and righteous, if there is no basis, then I am afraid that there is no benevolence and righteousness, I don't want such a thing to happen." β
Li Cheng raised his eyebrows, and heard Zhou Ming's words: "Brother Zhou said so, did something happen?"
Zhou Ming glanced at Li Cheng, and couldn't help but say that the vision of the richest Chinese man in the future is different, and he asked the point in one sentence, and Zhou Ming had to tell the story of meeting Robert on the way back to the dormitory yesterday.
"Robert is a member of the Addams family, I think you must be able to understand when I say this," Zhou Ming said, "The Addams family is the core family of the Brighton consortium, and this Gulf situation is caused by them and Rockefeller and other eastern consortiums, so today I have offended Robert so much, it is hard to guarantee that he will not do something about this." β
Tong Gang and Li Chengdu were stunned, and Lin Muqing kept dragging Zhou Ming's clothes below, giving him a look not to say that.
Zhou Ming also understood that it was stupid for him to say this, at least in business, but for Zhou Ming, those methods were all against opponents, Tong Gang and Li Cheng were not opponents, so they spread out everything and said okay, lest everyone end up making an unpleasant scene, and if he wants to go further in the future, maybe there will be a time to ask them for help.
"Brother Zhou, you can say this, it proves that you are a very reliable person, which makes us feel very relieved. Then Tong Gang changed his words and said, "But the Addams family is so powerful that it shouldn't be a trivial matter, right? β
"If it was someone else, I think he would put this thing aside for a while, but this time it's Robert. β
Zhou Ming emphasized the name: "From the matter of me picking you up at the airport, to this time when he came to stop my car, whether it is from what he did, or from the tone of his speech, I think he is a very naΓ―ve child with his thoughts and behaviors, so since he is a child, he will pay attention to happiness and revenge, if he can hold back this breath, he will not come to me today." β
"I see. β
Tong Gang then exchanged views with Li Cheng before saying, "Since this is the case, then we will take this contract back and revise it again, and then take it out for you to see." β
Zhou Ming replied that there was no problem, Tong Gang and Li Cheng took the contract and got up to say goodbye, and when Tong Gang and Li Cheng left, Alan had no need to stay, so he only chatted with Zhou Ming casually for a while and then got up and left; β
Zhou Ming shook his head and said: "At least there is no need for this now, and in the future, maybe we will have to rely on their strength, so we must not stiffen the relationship now, as for the current situation in the Gulf, even if they decide not to participate, it doesn't matter, we can make a lot of money ourselves." β
"Anyway, you're in charge, you have the final say. Lin Muqing said.
Regarding Lin Muqing's statement of shaking his hands, Zhou Ming could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, and then Zhou Ming's mobile phone rang, and Zhou Ming called Hoover, the president of the Brighton branch of China's Bank, and said that he wanted Zhou Ming to meet now, at the garden restaurant in South Brighton.
Zhou Ming hung up the phone, and Lin Muqing immediately asked him: "Zhou Ming, are you very familiar with this Hoover? Why did he ask you not to say anything, why didn't he say anything, why did he ask you out in such a hurry, is it too strange?"
Zhou Ming thought for a moment and said: "It's indeed a little strange, but this is indeed Hoover's voice, and with Zhang Lin protecting me, it's unlikely that anything big will happen, I'll go alone, Sister Mu Qing, you go home first." β
Lin Muqing glared at Zhou Ming angrily, because Zhou Ming habitually called her Sister Muqing just now, but it didn't matter, and then Lin Muqing got up and left very sensibly, so as not to trouble Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming and Zhang Lin immediately drove to the Garden Restaurant in South Brighton, and Zhou Ming came to the Vineyard Restaurant, but he did not see Hoover here.
Could it be that he was late? But when he came in just now, the waiter said that someone was already waiting here, could there really be something wrong?
Zhou Ming felt very strange, but soon, Zhou Ming's doubts were solved, because a very beautiful figure suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Ming, and she said to Zhou Ming: "Mr. Zhou Ming, welcome to the vineyard restaurant. β
Seeing this figure, Zhou Ming felt that he was suddenly in a trance, because this girl was so beautiful, her eyebrows, eyes and nose, every part of her seemed to be carefully portrayed by a certain master, and her slender figure looked even more exquisite under a purple gauze skirt.
But these are not the most important, the most important thing is that this girl Zhou Ming seems to be familiar, once when she was just starting out, in the economic lecture hall of Yanjing, she asked herself for directions, and then defeated countless Yan University students alone.
"Your Royal Highness Miss Theresia Caitlin, I didn't expect to see you here, nor did I expect it to be you who asked me out. Zhou Ming said with some emotion, he really didn't expect it to be her, after all, he hadn't seen her since the last time Yanjing said goodbye, and he didn't even know what her identity was except her name, let alone where to find her, how could he think that now she actually asked herself first?
Zhou Ming's words surprised her a little, but she still said calmly: "I didn't expect you to remember my name, it's really an honor." β
Zhou Ming replied with a smile: "Back then, Her Royal Highness Miss Theresia Caitlin of Yanjing University fought alone in the Yanda Economic Lecture Hall, and said that all the Yanda University students were obedient, especially Her Royal Highness Miss Theresia Caitlin is so beautiful, I'm afraid it's hard to remember." β
"Thank you Mr. Zhou Ming for your compliment, but in the end, I was not defeated by you? Caitlin laughed as well, and she added at the end, "Besides...... Her Royal Highness Miss Theresia Catelyn is so strange to call me Catelyn. β
"Okay, Your Highness Caitlin, please forgive me for being reckless, I have a question I want to ask, your friend cared so much about etiquette at the beginning, and now you have no objection to me calling you Your Highness, so are you really the princess of which country?" Zhou Ming asked curiously.
Faced with this question, Caitlyn nodded lightly and said: "I am the princess of the Harusburg royal family, and my father is the former Austrian Grand Duke Ferdinand, according to the basic law of succession to the throne, he is the 232nd heir to the British royal family. β
However, Caitlyn then changed the conversation and continued, "However, I am not here to educate you about European royalty today, and I have limited time to meet with you, so I hope you can listen to what I have to say." β
"Absolutely. Zhou Ming said, casually making a gesture of invitation to Caitlin.
Caitlin told Zhou Ming: "This is the case, I am now in charge of a bay plan. β
"Gulf Plan? Your Royal Highness Caitlin, is the Gulf Plan you are talking about, is it a possible Gulf War?" Zhou Ming asked, his tone was very surprised, because he only knew that the Gulf Plan was a conspiracy jointly created by the Brighton consortium and the Rockefeller consortium, but he didn't think that it was actually a royal princess who was operating it, could it be that the European royal family also participated in or led this matter?
Regarding Zhou Ming's doubts, Caitlin told him: "It's not as complicated as you think, the Gulf Plan is the capital operation of the consortium, I just have other considerations, and what I want to talk to you about is related to this." β
Caitlin paused as she said and then asked, "Mr. Zhou Ming, did you have any conflict with Robert Adams?"
"I should have just shot him. Zhou Ming introduced it very simply, and then asked, "Could it be that guy looking for you to deal with me?"
Caitlin nodded and said, "That's right, he asked me to do something to you on the Bay Plan." β
In the face of Catelyn's directness, Zhou Ming was a little uncomfortable, he scratched his head and said, "Since Your Highness Catelyn has already said so, you must not be planning to deal with me, right?"
"I am the proud royal princess of Harusburg, even if our dynasty is long gone, but our pride is still there, we will not make a move on any weak people, and I am indeed helping the Addams family to operate the Gulf Plan, but it does not mean that I will become their slave, this is impossible!" Caitlyn said very solemnly.
Caitlin then shifted her gaze to Zhou Ming: "So Zhou Ming, you are absolutely safe with me, but I can't be sure if he will use other methods to deal with you." β
Listening to Caitlyn's answer, Zhou Ming nodded silently, and waited for her to finish Zhou Ming before saying, "But I'm curious, Princess Caitlyn forgive me, it's your business what you want to do, why did you come all the way to tell me?"
"Because I need you to be vigilant, Mr. Nordriman has told him, and I owe him a favor, so I need to do it. Caitlin said.
"If that's all there is to it, then ......"
Zhou Ming wanted to say something, but suddenly a strong female bodyguard suddenly appeared at the door of the restaurant, and she rushed to this side: "Your Highness Caitlin, how can you run around again? Didn't I tell you not to talk to any strangers?"
"Okay, I see, I'm just talking to this gentleman for a while, and I'll be right over. β
After Caitlyn answered, she said to Zhou Ming: "It seems that this is the end of our conversation today, I hope to meet again." β
