Faced with Old Master He's proposal, Gu Xingdong had no objections. After a moment of thought, he proposed earnestly, "There are cameras in every corner of the rooms, but for everyone's safety, I'll have more set up."
Old Master He nodded, then frowned and said, "I don't know what that Meng Lei kid is thinking, mixing with such disreputable people. I originally thought he'd be an adult now, and in
Know that the empress of country M is as busy as a dog every day, so why would she bother with the affairs of a small subordinate? Moreover, since country M is a great power, they wouldn't stoop to quarreling with a little girl over such a trivial matter. Therefore, I agreed to this matter, mainly considering the country's development.
I know what I'm doing is a bit unethical, but there's really no other way. Please consider it carefully. No matter what choice you make, Uncle Lin will support you! We are not unreasonable people, and you surely have your own concerns!"
Chen Lishu rubbed her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache coming on. To be honest, she was in no mood to deal with these matters right now. However, since Lin Che had spoken to this extent and burdened her with such a significant responsibility, refusing would make her seem ungrateful.
After a moment of hesitation, Chen Lishu slowly said, "Uncle Lin, I'm mainly worried that if I don't design it well, won't that be a disgrace to the Chinese people? Why don't you just find an excuse to push these matters aside?
I heard it's an internal competition in country M. What is it for a Chinese person like me to participate? The pressure is too great, and I'm afraid of disappointing you all! Rather than facing a result that we cannot bear, it's better to avoid such a situation from the start."
Lin Che's face showed a wry smile upon hearing her words, "I have already considered your concerns. I spoke to the people of country M about this matter long ago, but they don't seem willing to let you off and have specifically asked for your participation. Moreover, the Empress of country M has extended an invitation, and it would be impolite of us not to give her face.
However, you don't need to worry. After all, you will be representing our China in country M. They don't have the nerve to make things too difficult yet. They have to consider the friendship between the two countries. I have already discussed with them that this matter will be kept confidential to minimize any harm to your reputation."
Chen Lishu was still hesitant about agreeing to this matter. Seeing this, Lin Che gritted his teeth and resorted to his trump card, "If you can win this competition and your products go international, we will consider exempting you from taxes. I believe what you've been striving for all along is such a result, isn't it? Now the opportunity is right in front of you, aren't you going to cherish it?"
Lin Che's words were very reasonable. The company's development was bound to take this path anyway. Regardless of how she refused, they would find reasons to force her to participate in this competition.
Instead of making things too awkward and putting Lin Che in a difficult position, it would be better to seize this opportunity to make him owe her a favor. That way, if she needed help in the future, she wouldn't have to go through her godfather, making him owe her a favor instead!
