Chen Jie was about to let him in when his phone suddenly rang.
He listened for a moment, and his expression turned peculiar.
"Boss, should I bring in the general manager of Huadong right away?" He Yufei asked tentatively.
"Make him wait. I have something to attend to outside. I'll be back shortly," Chen Jie said, then walked out without another word.
He Yufei and the others exchanged bewildered glances, but in the company, Chen Jie was the boss, and no one dared to question his decisions.
A short while later, Chen Jie returned to the conference room, accompanied by a young man.
The youth's face was pale, his skin stretched taut over his bones, his eyes were sunken, and dark circles ringed them.
When the sunlight from the window occasionally fell on his face, he would instinctively raise a hand to shield himself.
Chen Jie clearly had no intention of introducing the young man. Instead, he said, "Have the general manager of Huadong factory come in."
"Didn't you hear the boss? Hurry and invite him in!" He Yufei quickly commanded her stunned assistant.
The assistant only reacted when she heard the word "boss." She hadn't expected the pharmaceutical factory owner to be so young.
Before long, a middle-aged man with a large belly, accompanied by a slender young beauty, entered.
"Boss, this is the general manager of Huadong factory, Zhu Su. General Manager Zhu, this is our boss..."
As soon as He Yufei finished speaking, Zhu Su waved his hand and said, "No need for introductions, General Manager He. I've changed my mind. From today onwards, our Huadong Equipment Factory will refuse to provide any services to you!"
"Ah?"
He Yufei's pretty face changed slightly.
She quickly said, "General Manager Zhu, we are here to purchase your equipment!"
"No need to say more. We refuse to sell our equipment to you!" Zhu Su said with a cold laugh, looking at Chen Jie. "From today on, you won't be able to procure a single piece of equipment from us."
"General Manager Zhu, how can you do this? Surely your company wouldn't refuse to make money?" He Yufei was frantic.
If they couldn't even buy equipment, how could they operate normally?
"We don't sell, and that's that. In our industry, we never lack sales! You or no you, it's all the same!" Zhu Su said dismissively.
"By the way, do you have anything else? If not, I'm leaving! I'm going to the hotel to chat about life with my secretary today!"
"General Manager Zhu, wait..." He Yufei desperately tried to stop him.
Yu Cheng sneered repeatedly. "Still want to buy equipment? President Chen, you have money, that's true, but in this world, there are many things money can't solve. You have money, but can you buy it? Without me today, you can't even buy equipment."
"Now I've changed my mind. If you want me to stay with the company, my annual salary needs to increase to three million, no, five million! And I want the position of vice president!"
"Wait!" Chen Jie called out to Zhu Su.
"What else do you want?" Zhu Su asked, annoyed.
"Why are you doing this?" Chen Jie asked.
Zhu Su sneered, "You'll have to ask yourself if you've offended anyone recently!"
Chen Jie sneered repeatedly. "Fine, I'll see if we can still buy pharmaceutical equipment without you!"
"He Yufei, contact other pharmaceutical equipment companies!"
Chen Jie said.
"Oh? Very good, I'd like to see where you can buy from!" Zhu Su sat down on a chair, ostentatiously staying behind.
At the same time, he pulled his female secretary onto his lap.
The female secretary gasped and playfully allowed Zhu Su to touch her.
*Crash!*
Chen Jie kicked the chair, and the solid wood office chair splintered into pieces.
Zhu Su and his secretary fell to the ground.
Chen Jie said sternly, "Since you're not here for business, then get out. You have no place here!"
In the conference room, everyone held their breath.
They all knew Chen Jie was not to be trifled with and were afraid that his anger would be directed at them.
Zhu Su said indignantly, "You... If you had just said a few nice words to me, I might have considered selling you two units at a high price. Now, you have absolutely no chance!"
Chen Jie said unceremoniously, "Then why aren't you leaving quickly? Even if you begged me to buy now, I wouldn't!"
"I'm not leaving! I want to watch how your company goes bankrupt today!" Zhu Su said angrily.
"Then stand in the corner and don't get in our way!" Chen Jie said calmly.
"You, fine! We'll stand in the corner!" Zhu Su, determined to see Chen Jie humiliated, pulled his secretary to the corner.
Chen Jie looked at the others who were about to resign. "Are you still not leaving? Then stand in the corner and don't obstruct us!"
"Heh heh, standing in the corner is fine. If you invite us back, we'll be sitting in the CEO's chair!" Yu Cheng sneered.
Then, he led the rest of the company personnel to stand in the corner.
He Yufei, while looking up phone numbers, made a call.
"Hello, is this Tiancheng Pharmaceutical Equipment Factory? We are Shengtian Company, and we need to purchase a batch of equipment..."
"What? Shengtian Company? We don't sell, we don't sell! Your company's name clashes with ours. We wish you an early bankruptcy!"
With a *snap*, the other party hung up the phone.
Zhu Su sneered, "Buy, let you buy. Today you'll experience the pain of having money but no way to spend it!"
He Yufei's pretty face darkened, and she quickly dialed the second number. "We are Shengtian Company, and we want to purchase equipment from your company..."
"Ha, I'm sorry, our leadership has given special instructions not to do any business with your company. And, if anyone does business with you, they will become our number one competitor. I advise you to close your doors and go out of business," the other party said with a laugh.
He Yufei had the call on speakerphone, so everyone heard this.
For a moment, everyone was deeply discouraged, feeling that the company's doom was imminent.
Only Chen Jie's expression remained unchanged. He said calmly into the phone, "Anchen Company, is it? I'll give you one more chance to cooperate. If you refuse, don't come begging me later."
"Hahaha... This is hilarious. Not only do you offend people, but you dare to threaten us in return! If I beg you, I'll eat shit on my knees!"
"Then I'll be waiting."
Chen Jie said calmly, "Continue."
He Yufei, afraid to even breathe, continued to make calls.
But the replies were all the same.
Everyone seemed to have agreed, refusing any cooperation with Shengtian Company.
Blacklisting!
This was blatant blacklisting!
A group of executives sighed inwardly, realizing that Shengtian Company would have to announce its bankruptcy tomorrow.
"Boss, there's only one last pharmaceutical equipment factory left," He Yufei said, dialing the last number.
Just then, the office door was pushed open.
"No need to make calls, we've already arrived!"
A woman with an extraordinary aura, accompanied by a group of subordinates, entered.
It was Miss Yang, Yang Siqing.
"General Manager Yang! You're here! We were just about to discuss business with your equipment company..." He Yufei, thinking she was here to cooperate, was suddenly filled with surprise.
But Yang Siqing said, "I'm not here to cooperate with you. I'm here to tell you that you cannot do business in the pharmaceutical industry!"
