Chapter 1447 Business Negotiation
The KING Group has been in this industry for a long time. Without a doubt, the shareholders felt
overwhelmed. They had mixed feelings regarding the fact that they would not be able to continue
embarking on their original businesses anymore. The executives were also disappointed with the
choice. They were practically jobless now. . . .
"Now, the KING Group can bepared to a giant aircraft carrier. Even though it''s huge in size, the
weapons it carries are not that powerful. The industries that we shall focus on after the transformation
of ourpany is like focusing on getting intercontinental nuclear weapons for the aircraft carrier. If we
obtain these weapons, then the KING Group can have better strategies and won''t just get tossed
around easily by other groups.".
Darren''s speech left them all speechless. They were no longer able to resist or refute him. Maybe this
was the only choice that the KING Group had left. In order to survive, they would have to transform. . . .
. . .
The news that most of the employees would beid off and reced quickly spread throughout the
company. Since it was the CEO who had issued this order, they had no choice but to simply follow it
with noints.
After that, the HR department was very busy putting everything in order. Fortunately, the KING Group
was an established name, so the recruitment for new employees wasn''t difficult.
In the CEO''s office, Darren was busy with his work.
"Mr. Xu, here is the list of our new interns. Please have a look at them." The HR director handed him a
list filled with the names of all the new interns that had been recently recruited by thepany.
Darren scanned the list and saw that it also containedplete and detailed information about each
intern. After reading it, he nodded with satisfaction. "All right, this looks great. Train them well. Also, find
more talents if you can. We''re going to need them."

The HR director couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. He gave Darren a polite nod and left the
office.
Witnessing how the KING Group was slowly regaining its excellence as apany, Darren felt even
more confident about his original idea. However, he knew he still had a long way to go before he could
defeat Jacob.
Suddenly, there was another knock on his door.
"Come in."
It was Darren''s assistant, Han. Han walked up to Darren, panting. "Mr. Xu...". .
"What happened to you? Why are you in such a hurry?" Darren asked, motioning for him to sit down.
It turned out that some businesses of the KING Group were in serious trouble. Being new to the food
industry, the KING Group still hadn''t made full preparations in many aspects.
Mostpanies weren''t willing to ce too many orders or establish a partnership with them, because
they knew that the KING Group was still new to the food industry. The KING Group hadn''t found a
suitable raw material supplier for their business either. Needless to say, there were a lot of issues to
deal with at the moment.
"Mr. Xu, the new batch of raw materials we''ve recently purchased were found to be subpar and can''t be
used. We just received our first order yesterday. But now... We won''t be able to deliver it without high-
quality materials," Han informed him truthfully.
Darren had expected this oue. Since hispany had just been transformed, it was expected that
they would hardly receive orders for a while. But now, their biggest problem was where they were going
to get the raw materials needed for them toplete the orders that they did receive.
"Han, check all the raw material suppliers and find the ones most suited for ourpany. Then, sort
them out and hand me a list of qualified suppliers," he ordered.
Now, the only thing he could do was to find a good supplier for theirpany as soon as he could.
It didn''t take them long topile a list of suppliers. After someparison and analysis, Darren
finally decided on a supplier. The selected supplier wasn''t famous in name, but they had a good track
record in terms of the quality of their materials.
Darren called the head of the supplier and scheduled an appointment at a bar in the evening so that
they could negotiate. . . . . . .
In the evening
The smell of cigarettes and wine filled the bar. The music was ying at a deafening volume, and
intoxicated people were crazily dancing to their heart''s content in the middle of the dance floor. The
women dressed in bright shy clothes were flirting shamelessly with the men who couldn''t control
themselves.
Darren was waiting patiently in one of the private rooms.
Half an hourter, the head of the supplier finally arrived.
"I''m sorry I''mte, Mr. Xu. I was dyed by something on the way here." The head of the supplier
walked into the private room with a smile.
"It''s okay. Come and sit." Darren also gave him a smile in response, but in his heart, he was a little
disappointed with the man''s tardiness. The head of the supplier didn''t seem to take the KING Group
seriously at all. It was clear that he didn''t want to do business with the group. He was trying to stall for
time.
Darren waved his hand. Several bar girls immediately came up to them and sat beside the head of the
supplier. Now that he was surrounded by beautiful women, the head of the supplier looked pleased.
However, business was business. The man didn''t waste any time beating around the bush. Instead, he
said frankly, "Mr. Xu, I''ve read the cooperation n of your group. However...". .
He paused on purpose.
"Do you find my price unsatisfactory?" Darren asked impatiently.
The head of the supplier smiled politely, but didn''t answer. Instead, he took a sip of the wine.
"Well, Mr. Xu. Ourpany''s raw materials are all of high quality...". . the head of the supplier hinted as
he nced at Darren.
What an old fox! Darren was aware that the head of the supplier wanted to exploit the KING Group''s
weakness so that he could demand a higher price. The KING Group was obviously in an urgent need
of cooperation from a supplier.
Right now, the most important thing for them was to get a deal, sign a contract, and finish the first order
immediately. If they did that, Darren was sure that more customers would ce orders with the KING
Group in the near future.
He raised his index finger to show the head of the supplier how much more payment he could promise
him. "One million more."
"That''s great!" The head of the supplier was overjoyed at the price increase. In fact, the original price
offered by the KING Group was already more than enough. He had just wanted to try and see if Darren
would raise the price again. However, he hadn''t expected that Darren would go so far as to offer him a
total of 5 million, which was a great deal.
"When can we expect the delivery of the raw materials?" It was the thing that Darren was most
concerned about. They really needed the materials as soon as possible.
"Once we sign the contract tomorrow, I will immediately dispatch people to prepare the raw materials
for yourpany."
"That''s good. Let me propose a toast to you then!"
The two of them happily raised their sses as they reached an agreement in the private room. . . . . . .
"Mr. Gu, Darren has reached an agreement with the head of a raw material supplier today," . . Sam
informed Jacob hesitantly.
"Oh really? Did they sign the contract already?"
There was no way that Jacob would let Darren sessfully sign a contract with the supplier.
"Not yet. I believe they will do it tomorrow."
"Okay, you know what to do.". . .
After giving Sam his orders, Jacob stood up and walked over to the French window. The night sky
looked like a dark blue curtain, decorated with beautiful and sparkling stars. It was so ethereal that one
couldn''t help but take in the view.
The show was just about to begin. . . . . . . . .
Once they finished their business negotiation, the head of the supplier walked towards a hotel with a
beautiful woman wrapped around his arms. Without warning, a man appeared in front of them, followed
by several other men who were all d in ck clothing.
"Hello, can I interest you in a deal?"
The leader of the group was a young man with an intimidating aura. The several men behind him
looked terrifying as well, which made the head of the supplier tremble in fear.
"Who are you?" He waspletely blocked by these men. A hint of anger appeared on his face and he
red daggers at them.
