"Fang, long time no see~"

Fang Yuanshan, who was still sitting on the chair, didn't even get up, raised his head and gestured to the seat opposite: "Sit down!~"

The secretary outside brought in a cup of coffee to Hoffman, and after the little secretary left, Fang Yuanshan didn't speak, just waited quietly for him to speak.

"Fang, our company in Brasilia and several jewelry stores in Rio are closing, and no one wants to sell us gems anymore. As he spoke, there was a hint of dejection on his face.

From the time Hoffman decided to oppose him, it was already destined that only one company between them could survive, and it was needless to say who it was.

Seeing Hoffman's appearance at this time, Fang Yuanshan said expressionlessly: "Is it? That's a pity." ”

Both sides knew what had led to the current ending, but Hoffman obviously still had a hint of illusion, and the corners of his mouth moved: "Can you ...... Can you ......?"

Looking at Hoffman in front of him, Fang Yuanshan sneered: "Can't~"

Santoni specializes in mining and deep processing of gemstones, as well as some jewelry stores, and his family is also involved in energy and finance.

The company has two sources of funding, one is jewelry sales, and the other is Vale's outsourcing business. Now that one leg is lame by him, he took the opportunity to reveal some shady information about the other party's company that he had collected before, including the unbearable information about his mother "Claudia" to the media.

Just last week, Vale terminated their company's contracting rights, and the company's involvement in a number of commercial bribery cases was handed over to the Rio state authorities, and his mother has now been formally arrested by the state prosecutor's office.

This series of blows caused the company to languish in just half a month, and there were signs of bankruptcy at any time.

"To give you one last resort, sell all your directly operated stores in Rio and Brasilia to our company, this is the only way you can do it at the moment. If you insist, then there's nothing to talk about. ”

Their family's two dozen outlets are probably their most valuable assets at the moment, and most of the other businesses are made by making quick money through connections, and after leaving his mother, Blake, a councilman, his business has no value.

“……”

Bill Hoffman, who was sitting on the sofa, was no longer the same as before, his golden hair was also greasy, soft and soft on his head, he was silent for a long time after hearing Fang Yuanshan's words, and when he finally raised his head, he said bitterly: "Okay, I hope the price you give can make me pay off those debts, otherwise I may come to work in your mine." ”

After this Bill Hoffman left, a smile appeared on Fang Yuanshan's face. Their company's biggest shortcoming at present is that it does not have its own direct stores, and all the gemstones are found to be distributors, and there are foreign customers who come to purchase.

This is great, but it does not improve the company's status in the minds of the Brazilian people, and even many ordinary Brazilian citizens do not know that they exist as a company, which is obviously not in line with the company's long-term development plan.

After telling Anne about the need to leave Brazil for a few days, he left the company and flew to Madrid, the capital of Spain, on a private jet.

In addition to being the capital of Spain, Madrid is also the capital of the province of Madrid and the Autonomous Community of Madrid. Of course, the Autonomous Community of Madrid has a continental climate, with a large temperature difference between summer and winter. Although it was the end of April at this time, Fang Yuanshan, who got off the plane, still unconsciously hugged his arms, and he felt a little more comfortable after the bodyguards around him helped him approve a coat.

Without too much delay, after leaving the airport, an extended "Lincoln" was already waiting outside, and after waiting for the car, Yuanshan muttered in his mouth: "Why is the temperature in Madrid so much lower than in China?"

The handsome French guy sitting opposite Fang Yuanshan said with a smile in English: "Mr. Fang, the climate here is affected by the ocean, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is very large, if it is noon, it should be much better." ”

Hearing his words, Fang Yuanshan smiled and said, "What's your name, is it Thomson's assistant?"

"Mr. Huifang, my name is Vic Ariel, and I am Mr. Thomson's secretary. ”

"Hey, why did this Thomson find a male secretary, right?"

Wickedly glanced at Ariel across the street, but then he didn't ask again. Ever since he learned the true meaning of the phrase "curiosity kills cats", he no longer intends to break the casserole and ask the end.

The car was moving very fast, and when he passed by the "Castile" square in the north of the city, he glanced outside, and who knew that Ariel on the opposite side began to explain to him the relevant allusions about this square.

"Does Thomson like the tune too?"

He thought about it amusefully, but he also felt sincere admiration for this Ariel's extraordinary knowledge and eloquence. Unlike himself, many things belong to the kind that is forgotten at a glance, let alone let him talk about it, even if he is allowed to read it, there may not be such a fluency as anyone's home.

Whenever he passes by any scenic spots along the way, Ariel will always help him explain it in a timely manner, making Fang Yuanshan feel like a tour guide. When he saw Thomson at the "Hotel Americas", Fang Yuanshan repeatedly praised him for being a very caring secretary and very knowledgeable.

The two people who had a cooperative relationship did not exchange too many pleasantries, and after sitting down, Thomson said directly: "Fang, our company now has a batch of weapons that urgently need to be shipped to Côte d'Ivoire, if it is sent before the 10th of next month, then our market share over there will be greatly increased, and it is expected to completely occupy the light weapons sales market in Côte d'Ivoire within this year." ”

Hearing Thomson's unabashed words, Fang Yuanshan said with interest: "Oh? ”

Thomson leaned over and leaned close to his ear and said, "Recently, there have been signs on the Ivorian side that several major armed forces are preparing to unite against the government army, so we ......."

Thomson didn't hide anything, he told Fang Yuanshan all their purpose and allies over there, and even told them their previous layout over there.

After all the heirs of the "Dassault" family finished speaking, Fang Yuanshan said with a serious face: "Dassault, you have to tell me, is this matter led by your family or the French government?"

According to his rhetoric, their family is obviously heading for a change in the party's government, and Fang Yuanshan does not believe that such a big incident can be done by just one arms manufacturer.

It may be that Fang Yuanshan's "way" is really needed, Thomson knows everything about his problem, and after he finished speaking, he said directly: "This matter is led by our family, but the French government is very clear about this matter, and it can be regarded as an indirect acquiescence in this matter." ”

"That's what you call win-win cooperation?"

Thomson nodded earnestly, "Yes, how about it, would you like to help me with this?"

In business, Fang Yuanshan was not polite, and asked, "What benefits can I get?"

"Côte d'Ivoire has always had abundant gold and diamond reserves, but due to the perennial war, the mining rate is extremely low, less than 1 percent of the total reserves. If it does, yours will own all the gold and diamond mining rights in Côte d'Ivoire. ”

Hearing such tempting conditions, Fang Yuanshan was really moved. Because his foundation is too thin, his career in Brazil has reached its peak, and further expansion is likely to touch the interests of those giant companies, and it is likely to attract some hungry wolves.

Now that there was such an opportunity to expand outward, his heart suddenly became faster. Thinking about the benefits and disadvantages with a calm face, the room suddenly fell silent, and after a full ten minutes, he raised his head, looked at Thomson and smiled: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation......
