On the day of the bidding meeting, the commercial media of the entire city A waited at the bidding venue early in the morning, looking forward to grabbing today's headlines.

Qiancheng had heard Secretary Gu say the night before yesterday that this time the bidding would be stricter than the previous project requirements in the tourist city and other cities, and he couldn't help but worry about Ling Yuxing.

After all, he spent too much time and manpower on this project, and it would be best if he could mark this project, if not, he would be very disappointed!

Secretary Gu asked her to believe him, and Gu Hangyu also made her confident in her husband, but she still couldn't help but worry.

Especially the four major families and Ye Chongxi, she was worried that they would stab him in the back, and most of the deceitful people in the business world could not be prevented.

Arrived at the company early in the morning, she postponed all the work to after noon, and put all her thoughts on the on-site report of today's bidding meeting.

In the quiet cloakroom, Ling Yuxing stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself who had changed into a jet-black suit, and then looked at the empty cloakroom, with a faint loneliness on his depressed and calm face.

Usually at this time, he and her stepped into the cloakroom one after the other, choosing the clothes they were going to wear today, and occasionally when the interest came, he would also select a few sets of clothes for her to help him choose and match, those professional terms she often said and praise for him, even with a little ridicule and ridicule, he was still happy to listen.

And now, his side is empty, she is not around, and she always feels that there is a gap missing in her heart, and she can't stop the loneliness and loneliness that jumps in.

Sighing slightly, he straightened his tie and cufflinks in the mirror and turned out of the cloakroom.

Today, this is a war that belongs to him, whether he wins or loses, he hopes that after this, she can return to him.

Back at the company, he took the bidding book and came out of the office, and Lin Che waited at the door of the secretary's office with two assistants.

Seeing him come out, Lin Che stepped forward with Wen Jiàn in his arms, raised his hand and looked at the time, "President, it's almost time, let's get ready to go!" ”

"Hmm!" Ling Yuxing responded lightly, turned around and walked towards the elevator.

Sitting in the car, Lin Che glanced at the man in the rearview mirror, Xu had not rested well in the past few days, and the president looked a lot haggard.

He also somewhat understood the reason, after all, he was an outsider, and he didn't say much, so he coughed lightly and pulled up a topic to ease the atmosphere: "President, you don't seem to be very confident." ”

"Today's bidding will have a 50 percent success rate. Ye Chongxi has the support of the Zhao family and the Shen family, I don't think highly of him and I won't underestimate him, what the bidding result is, I won't know until it is revealed. ”

It's not that he doesn't lack confidence, but this bid will be just a chance for him to fight, who is more capable, and see the real chapter on the battlefield!

Ye Chongxi's methods are so despicable, he can't guess what else he will do in order to bid for this project, and wait and see!

Lin Che nodded, knowing Ye Chongxi's unscrupulous means, and it was not easy to express any opinions, so he turned his head in silence.

In this bidding, Ye Chongxi has the support of the Zhao family and the Shen family, regardless of whether the Shen family is also involved, the Zhao family intends to join forces with Ye Chongxi, and Ye Chongxi has a good chance of winning at this point.

However, they are not to be underestimated, in the whole project, from design to survey to research plan, they invite first-class designers and scholars and professors, regardless of ability or financial resources, how can they not lose to Ye Chongxi!

Early in the morning of the bidding meeting, Jiang Yiyuan called Ye Chongxi and asked him to notify her when the results came out.

Ye Chongxi didn't think much about it, and agreed, maybe at this time, for the two of them, the purpose is the same, and they are both looking forward to seeing Ling Yuxing defeat fiasco!

At the bidding site, there are many companies participating in the bidding, although they are not as financially strong as the three major companies in the business world, but on the road to pursue interests, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, no one will give up lightly.

The reporters waiting at the scene saw Ye Chongxi get out of the car, and a group of people rushed to the scene, holding cameras and microphones to start the early morning interview and tracking report.

"Mr. Ye, how sure are you of this bidding?"

"Mr. Ye, I heard that Jiang's Group has canceled its cooperation with you, will it affect your bidding this time?"

“……”

A series of follow-up questions followed, and Ye Chongxi, with the help of his secretary and several other staff members, struggled to get out of the group of reporters, until he heard someone ask about the Jiang Group, he stopped and turned his head to look in the direction of asking this question.

It seemed that he pondered for a moment before answering the reporter's question: "Regarding the question of the cancellation of cooperation by the Jiang Group, when the bidding results come out, you will ask Mr. Jiang if he will regret it." As for the impact you are talking about, be patient and wait for the results! ”

Ye Chongxi sneered, and when he was about to turn around, he happened to see a car stopped in the driveway, and Ling Yuxing's secretary was respectfully opening the door of the back seat and inviting people out of the car.

Standing next to the car, Ling Yuxing raised his eyes lightly and looked at the figure surrounded by a group of reporters, and raised the corners of his lips playfully, Ye Chongxi's answer just now He had heard it in the car, and the unwillingness and confidence in his tone could not be concealed.

He can understand that he is unwilling to give up cooperating with him, but at this time he can still be so confident, which makes him a little surprised.

Some reporters had already seen Ling Yuxing's figure, and they rushed towards the person who had just gotten out of the car.

"Mr. Ling, how sure are you that you can bid for this project in today's bidding meeting?"

"Mr. Ling......"

In the face of the reporter's questioning, Ling Yuxing's face did not change and walked to the venue with the help of the staff, no matter whose question it was, he didn't open his mouth to answer, and there was not much expression on the silent and cold Jun face.

At the door of the venue, Ling Yuxing glanced at Ye Chongxi, who was paused, and just glanced at him, he really didn't want to look at his villainous face, and he didn't bother to say hello, leading the secretary and a few executives inside.

Ye Chongxi half-sideways looked at the figure walking towards the front row, so arrogant and cold that he didn't seem to take everyone in his eyes, hooked his lips and smiled faintly, and led the secretary and senior executives inside.

He wants to see who can have the last laugh!

From the tense competition to the anonymous voting at the end, time passed minute by minute, knowing that the final review was over, everyone was waiting for the final result.

The judges stood on the stage to announce the final results, deliberately on the stage to the stage shuttle around, and finally fell on the two sides of the aisle, one left and one right, one of the three business leaders in charge, "this bidding, Ling's Group pays attention to humanistic protection has been unanimously praised by experts, and Ye's Group has also been appreciated by experts for the idea of renewable energy utilization of wind energy. Look at the big screen! ”

The names of the two groups appeared on the big screen, and the bottom numbers under the group began to roll, and the numbers stayed one by one from single digits to ten digits to hundreds and thousands, and the bidders in the field watched with bated breath.

In the end, the scrolling numbers on both sides stopped, and looking at the numbers on the screen, Ling Yuxing's face suddenly sank!

With an investment project of more than 30 billion yuan, Ye Chongxi is only less than one million higher than him, such a small gap is impossible!

Looking at the bottom of the standard on the screen, Lin Che suddenly turned his head to look at the president with a gloomy face on the side, and suddenly felt bad!

On the other side, when Ye Chongxi was looking at this set of numbers, he couldn't help laughing, turned his head to look at Ling Yuxing with a gloomy face with a proud face, and said with a slightly provocative expression: "Mr. Ling, I agreed!" ”

Ling Yuxing turned his head and glanced at him coldly, although his calm handsome face looked gloomy, he didn't show much emotion, and when his dark eyes looked at the numbers on the screen, a cold light flashed.

The host stood on the stage to announce the winner of the bidding, Ling Yuxing slowly stood up, led the secretary and senior executives out of the venue first, and did not stay for a moment.

The flash of the media kept flashing, almost illuminating the entire dim venue, looking at Ling Yuxing, who was the first to leave the seat, he was full of anger, and the reporter did not dare to come forward to interview him about his feelings of losing the standard at the moment, so as not to bump into the muzzle of the gun and eat cannon fodder at this time!

Standing on the stage, Ye Chongxi looked at the few figures leaving in the aisle, and smiled gently and humbly at the media in the audience, his face was full of joy and happiness for winning the bid!

He didn't have much of a surprise at this result, because the bottom of the bid was given to him by the Shen family, and he didn't want to ask how he got it, and he knew in his heart the ability of the Shen family, as long as he could win Ling Yuxing, what if he did anything?!

This world is the world of the strong, people will only remember the one who won, and who will remember who the one who loses?!

Sitting on the stage, he signed a contract with the secretary general sent by the city, and in the flickering lights of the media, he looked at the group of people in the audience and smiled unhappily.

At this moment, he wanted to know if the passenger was watching the news from the other side of the scene.

In a world where the winner is king, can she understand what he has done?

Sitting in the car, Ling Yuxing had a calm face, raised his hand and threw the Wen Jiàn clip in his hand on the seat next to him.

Lin Che turned his head to look at him, his face a little stiff, "President...... The gap between the bottom of the bid is so small, could it be that someone leaked the bottom of the bid?! No matter how smart Ye Chongxi is, it is impossible for him to guess our bottom bid, let alone a small distance of more than one million! And...... The bottom of the bid that came from the Ye Group before was more than 30 million different from his current number, and now this number has become too suspicious! ”

Before Ye Chongxi returned to China, they not only arranged their own people in the Yan Group in the Ye Group, most of them were in high positions, for Ye Chongxi's participation in the bidding this time, they were clear before, and the temporary change of the bid did not pass through the high-level in the Ye Group, otherwise they would not have not received the news!

Ling's Group has pressed the price to the most appropriate range after accounting for the design cost and material phone bill for each item of the design project, as well as the details of each piece, and the error will not be greater than 100,000!

Ye Chongxi has a completely different design from them, and it is impossible to have the same price, or even less than a million higher!

The last time the bottom of the bid was leaked was because of Jiang Keying, and they used their own way to govern others, which made Yan Zirao on the verge of bankruptcy, and even put on a good show waiting for him to jump in, exchanging a project for Mrs. Ling, where the president may not lose.

Only this time...... Losing to Ye Chongxi, I am afraid that the hurdle in the president's heart will not be able to get over!

Ling Yuxing looked out the window at first, closed his eyes tiredly, and spit out a word hoarsely: "Check!" ”

"Yes!" Lin Che answered, turned around and instructed the driver to drive, and sent a message to Zhuo Feng, asking him to come over and help him investigate thoroughly.

There are not many people who know the bottom of the bid, and only the top executives in the whole team know about it, because each budget is a division of labor between each group, and it is impossible for them to know what the total number is.

Excluding some people, it is not a problem to check it out.

Lin Che looked up at the president in the rearview mirror, and wanted to ask him what to do next, but seeing his tired face, he didn't ask in the end

Sitting at the desk, Qiancheng looked at Ye Chongxi, who had a beautiful face in the camera, and Ling Yuxing left the venue in a hurry, leaning on the back of the chair weakly, and his mood was indescribably complicated.

Now should be the saddest time for him to lose this project, and she doesn't know how to comfort him.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally dialed the phone, who knew that it was not Ling Yuxing who answered the phone, but Lin Che, hearing his voice, she suddenly didn't know how to say what she wanted to say, "Secretary Lin, he ...... How is he? ”

"Miss Su, the president's affection is not very good, and I haven't rested well in the past few days, and the whole person looks haggard. He's in the office right now, and I'll bring him the phone! ”

"Oh, no, I'm ...... I'll come over later, so I don't have to tell him yet! Making such a decision was almost subconscious, and she even forgot about their previous arguments and quarrels, and also forgot about her bottom line.

It's just that he feels distressed, and his habitual reaction comes out before the thoughts in his head, and it's too late for her to react.

"Okay!" Not long after hanging up the phone, Zhuo Feng had already hurried over.

He didn't expect such a thing to happen, and it was not easy to investigate it in such a hurry now.

In the reception room, Zhuo Feng looked at the information of several executives who participated in the bidding and accounting prepared by Lin Che in advance, and even if he had a headache, he still asked people to check it.

In fact, it is not difficult to investigate, if it is not for the extremely high interests of revenge, the employees of the Ling Group will not betray lightly, especially when they reach the position of senior executive.

However, after a round of investigation, no clues were found, and Zhuo Feng couldn't help but look up at Lin Che, "Do you want to expand the scope of search?" Are you sure these are the only ones who have seen the bid? ”

"There are only these few people involved in the verification, except that they are me and the president, the gap between Ye Chongxi's bid and ours is so small, if it wasn't for knowing the bid in advance, there could be no such coincidence!"

"How are you so sure there could be no such coincidence? What if it's really a coincidence?! Zhuo Feng looked at him and did not rule out the possibility of coincidence.

"The people on the Ye Group's side have already spread the word that Ye Chongxi's bid base is more than 30 million less than the bid base we calculated, and this time it has become more than 1 million, do you think there is such a coincidence?!"

Zhuo Feng nodded, looked at the results of the search, and shook his head, "No huge transactions have been found from everyone's accounts, and if you want to check carefully, it is estimated that it will take a little time." Who else has been in and out of the president's office during this time?! ”

"The bottom of the bid was calculated yesterday, and the president did this just in case someone leaked the bottom of the bid, if there were no people involved in the accounting, then you could only exclude the people around you, and you called up the surveillance video on the corridor outside the office."

Zhuo Feng pulled out the surveillance video on the walkway, looked at it carefully, and finally fixed the picture on Mrs. Ling, who entered the office alone with a thermos box.

All the people who entered and exited the office were in the office, Ling Yuxing was in the office when he was alone in and out, and there was only one person who entered the office when he was not in the office.

Looking at the figure on the surveillance video, Lin Che turned his head suddenly, "It can't be her!" Your brain is in water, how could she leak the bottom of the bid to Ye Chongxi! ”

Zhuo Feng glanced at him lightly, took out his mobile phone and dialed the number to the second child, "I hope it's not him!" ”

The phone was connected, Zhuo Feng twisted his eyebrows and said, "Report on Mrs. Ling's itinerary yesterday, and don't miss a single one!" ”

took the phone, Zhuo Feng pressed the hands-free button: "In the morning, Secretary Gu sent her to work in the company, and went back home before ten o'clock, and went to the toy city to buy toys on the way, and came out with lunch in less than an hour after going home, and then went directly to the president's side, and then went to Jinye, and met Ye Chongxi before returning to GM......

After listening to the second child's report, Zhuo Feng wrinkled his eyebrows with a headache, hung up the phone and left the phone on the table, and the hard mobile phone shell collided with the desktop with a harsh sound.

"You can find a way to report this to the president yourself, and I will investigate the rest slowly, it may take a little time. Better not her, or ......"

He knew very well what the price of betraying the president would be, but if the person who betrayed him was Mrs. Ling, it would probably not be good news for everyone.

Lin Che looked at the freeze-frame laptop screen, remembered what had happened recently, and fell silent for a while.

He didn't know how to explain this to the president

Standing at the door of the office, Lin Che didn't know how long he hesitated before he mustered up the courage to knock on the door and enter.

Looking at the figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Lin Che paused, he didn't know how long the president had been standing there, he took a deep breath and stepped forward, "President......"

"Did you find it?" Faintly retracting his gaze, Ling Yuxing turned around and looked at him with one hand in his pocket, his cold handsome face could not hide his tiredness.

"Zhuo Feng came to check, excluding the high-level people involved in the accounting, there is no problem from the transaction amount on the books, there are not many people who can contact this bid, everything that can be checked has been checked, and even the people who enter and leave the president's office have been checked, when Mrs. Ling came over yesterday, the president was in a meeting, and it is not excluded that she has seen the bid."

Hearing him say this, Ling Yuxing twisted his eyebrows slightly and raised his lips playfully, "So you suspect that she leaked the bottom of the bid to Ye Chongxi, right?" ”

Lin Che raised his head, hesitated and continued: "I just asked the second child about the situation there, and they said...... said that Mrs. Ling went to see Ye Chongxi after leaving the company yesterday......"

"Really?" The hand in his pocket tightened, Ling Yuxing turned his eyes calmly and turned to look at the hustle and bustle of the city outside the window, but his heart fell heavily.

From the beginning of Ye Chongxi's sowing discord, she chose to believe Ye Chongxi or not him, so many questions were all provoking her hatred for him.

He thought that she was willing to forgive him, or that she had figured it out and was willing to give him a chance to explain, but he didn't expect her to come to him and bring him lunch and medicine, not for him.

Such a coincidence forced him to face the problem he was most unwilling to face.

No wonder she didn't wait for him to come out after the meeting, her purpose was not for him, but for this bid.

He wanted to believe her, but he couldn't believe it.

He finally understood why Ye Chongxi was so confident at the venue, thinking of his smug face, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
