"You, you are Mr. Zhang Heng!"
Walid did not hear the conversation between the two on the phone. At this time, he was suddenly startled and stood up quickly. It seemed that Zhang Heng's sudden arrival caught him off guard, "Mr. Zhang Heng, I am Walid Ben. Hello Talal Al Saud…”
"I know you." Zhang Heng slowly walked towards the other party with a calm but polite smile, "The legend of the investment community, the "Warren Buffett" of Arabia, your name is as dazzling as the stars in the sky. No one in the business world is unaware of your existence.”
"You've won the award!" Walid looked overjoyed. It was very honorable to him to be praised by Zhang Heng. He humbly said, "Compared with your achievements, I am nothing worth mentioning!"
At this moment, Walid suddenly discovered that Zhang Heng had been wearing sunglasses, and suddenly said strangely, "Mr. Zhang Heng, your eyes..."
"It's inflamed. It will hurt when exposed to light." Zhang Heng waved his hand and said casually.
"That's it. I'm really sorry for bothering you when you are ill." Walid said with a sincere apology, "In that case, I'll ask the secretary to read the contract to you."
Kristina's mind behind Walid had already gone blank. This was the first time she had seen her boss make such a humble gesture. No, this was no longer humble, this was completely humility!
As a member of the royal family of Saudi Arabia, although he does not have the right to inherit, Walid's status is extremely noble. Even the Queen of England must treat him with dignity. But now, his boss has made such a humble gesture, while the other party is just He is a young man who is more than ten years younger than himself!
Zhang Heng... She had heard of this name - the founder of Stellar Technology and the chairman of the Stellar Foundation. In just two or three years, he developed a private company into a technology giant that shook the world, and even the five major countries looked up to him. But it is said that this person is extremely low-key. Unless he is really at the top of the world, he is not even qualified to know his name!
Kristina only knew this name some time ago because she was Walid's secretary. But as far as she knew, even Walid only knew the other person's name, but he didn't even know his age. , height, preferences, etc., nothing is known!
Many times, Christina has been wondering who this character is and how he is different from other business tycoons. But at this moment, this legendary character is actually standing in front of her!
"Christina?" Just when Christina was stunned, she suddenly heard Walid calling her, quickly came to her senses, apologized, and respectfully sent the same contract to Zhang Heng's hands again. , said with a humble attitude, "Let me explain to you, about our Saudi Arabia..."
"No need to explain." Zhang Heng waved his hand and interrupted Kristina, "I think I need to regretfully tell you that we cannot agree to your conditions."
"Why?" Walid felt cold after hearing this, and said quickly, "Do you think the benefits are not enough? This number can still be negotiated, how about 30%? We are willing to pay 30% of the shares in exchange for Ten years of mining!”
"This is not a matter of money." Zhang Heng shook his head. "The development of new energy is imperative. Our company has reached an agreement with the Five Permanent Representatives. Even if we do not promote new energy, the five major countries will."
"I know this." Walid said hurriedly, "But I also know that the contract signed between the five permanent members of the Security Council and you means that they will only use nuclear fusion in the military field, but will not get involved in the commercial and civilian fields! Only you have The right to promote new energy to people’s livelihood! ”
"It seems that Mr. Walid knows a lot." Zhang Heng looked at Walid noncommittally, "Did China reveal it to you?"
"No, this is just my guess." Walid shook his head quickly. Facing Zhang Heng's questioning, he suddenly felt as if he had become a student, and the other person was his teacher. Facing the teacher's questioning, he had no choice but to He turned his gaze to the side guiltily, "No one revealed it to me."
Zhang Heng smiled, but at this moment, he seemed to hear something. He frowned and looked at the door. Everyone looked at it as if they were aware of it, but they heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the door. Quickly, the wooden door was pushed open with great force, and with a bang, a dozen men wearing headscarves and dressed as Arabs rushed in!
"What are you doing!" Li Yiru frowned, "Where are the security guards?"
"Don't be nervous, Miss Li Yiru, we have an appointment." The leading man was a bearded man with rough skin eroded by the desert. He said with a gloomy look, "I am the great Prince Talal of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I want to see Mr. Zhang Heng.”
As he said that, he looked around at everyone in the room. When he saw Walid, he immediately smiled coldly, "Walid, you are here?" Without waiting for the other party to answer, he turned his eyes to Zhang Heng, "Finally Meet you, Mr. Zhang Heng, the chairman of Hengxing Technology.”
"Talal, pay attention to your words and deeds." Walid was anxious. He knew the style of his brother of the same generation. He quickly stood up and said in Arabic, "I am negotiating terms with Mr. Zhang Heng on behalf of our country!"
"Waleed, you are not qualified to replace the royal family." Talal narrowed his eyes, "Don't forget, you and your father are guilty."
"You..." Walid's face suddenly turned pale, as if he had been stabbed in a painful spot, and he was speechless.
"So, you can take the place of the Saudi royal family? Then let's talk about it." Zhang Heng looked at the two people arguing in a leisurely manner, then simply turned around and sat on the sofa in front of everyone, and then He raised his head and said, "Tell me, what are your conditions?"
Talal frowned, as if he was not used to Zhang Heng's arrogant attitude, but when he thought of the other party's identity, he had to suppress his unhappiness, turned around and sat across from Zhang Heng, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang Heng, we Saudi Arabia The royal family is willing to use 20% of its oil shares in exchange for not promoting new energy technologies for twenty years. During these twenty years, you will receive hundreds of billions of dollars every year to make up for your losses.”
"But Mr. Walid just promised ten years." Zhang Heng poured himself a cup of tea, "Which one of you can count?"
"Of course it's me." Talal showed a proud look, "Walid's father was expelled from the royal family when he was young. Although he returned later, his family has lost the qualification to compete for the throne forever."
"And..." Talal continued to confuse, "This ten-year period is indeed a condition set by His Majesty the King, but I personally think that this time is too little. The oil market has a saturation rate, and high output will inevitably bring The recent large-scale drop in oil prices, setting a time limit of ten years is equivalent to giving up trillions of dollars in benefits. If this time is extended to twenty years, this will not be a problem. It can be said that the extension Making an appointment is a win-win situation for you and me..."
"It's a good idea." Zhang Heng nodded, thoughtfully, and suddenly he looked at a timid little girl among the bodyguards behind Talal, "Is that your daughter?"
"That's my fourth wife." Talal seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He waved, and the little girl immediately shrank back with a look of horror on her face, but was forcibly pulled away by a bodyguard. When he arrived at Talal's side, Talal pushed the little girl in front of Zhang Heng and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang Heng, if you like, I can let her come to accompany you tonight."
A coldness flashed across Zhang Heng's expression. He stood up slowly, pulled the little girl to Li Yiru's side, and suddenly asked an irrelevant question, "I heard that in Saudi Arabia, Yemen and other regions, there are more than four One of the women was married before the age of fifteen?”
"This is the hadith of Allah." Talal frowned, as if he didn't understand the other party's intention, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Allah is great, maybe you can't understand it, but for us****** For the nation, this is a normal thing, and no one can interfere with the age at which a woman marries of her own free will.”
"Is it really voluntary?" Zhang Heng sneered, "Those girls who are twelve, thirteen or even eight or nine years old also voluntarily marry an old man who is sixty or seventy years old and can't even use a cane?"
"This is not within the scope of our discussion, Mr. Zhang Heng!" Talal's expression turned cold. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhang Heng with a threatening look. "I solemnly warn you, please do not question us** ****State doctrine!”
As Talal spoke, the atmosphere in the entire office suddenly condensed. The group of bodyguards stared at Zhang Heng eagerly. Even Walid looked nervous and winked at Talal. In any case, Tara Er is representing his own country, and he does not want to jeopardize the fate of Saudi Arabia here.
"You warned me?" Zhang Heng was stunned. He seemed to have encountered something funny and laughed softly, "Don't forget, even your father would not dare to speak to me like this!"
"You!" Talal's expression changed, and he stood up suddenly, staring at Zhang Heng with a ferocious expression.
, "Actually, I have always been curious," Zhang Heng did not pay attention to the other party's gaze, but showed doubts, "Why are there always a small group of people in the world who like to use religion and tradition under the guise of doing things even if they violate laws and morals? To maintain a certain kind of backward ideology and values?”
"Until now, I finally understand." As he spoke, Zhang Heng slowly took off his glasses. It was only then that everyone was shocked to find that Zhang Heng's eyes were closed from beginning to end!
"Because only by defending this backward ideology and values to the death can you realize your... greedy, beast-like... "
"desire!"
