Sheng Hao Corporation, Xing Feng Building, CEO's office.
Yu Lingwei was standing next to the desk. Today, Lan Bing was still dressed as a white-collar beauty and looked very charming. However, Lan Bing's expression was not very good because a remote real-time projection was being generated in the middle of the room.
Only the higher-ups of Sheng Hao Corporation could directly connect to the CEO's office. Usually, a meeting would only be held when something big happened.
The projection quickly appeared. Even the person who came in was the elegant Yu Anjie. Yu Anjie did not seem to have any expression. He just said calmly, "Sister Wei, please go out for a while. I have something to discuss with CEO Lan alone."
Yu Lingwei immediately turned and walked out of the office. She knew that Yu Anjie was the kind of person who was very clear about public and private matters. There was no way he would come to talk about love with Lan Bing so early in the morning. There must be something confidential.
Lan Bing then got up with a serious expression. "Anjie, you're here so early. Is it because of Ding Meng?"
Yu Anjie nodded. "Lil Bing, your old friend is very capable. Even my big sister is full of praise for him."
Lan Bing's heart sank. She was familiar with Yu Anjie's style of doing things. Yu Anjie suddenly mentioned his big sister, which meant that CEO Yu Tianlin was very likely alarmed.
Ding Meng went to outer space this time and caused a series of trouble. First, he turned Planet Phoenix's space station upside down and killed a Battle-Monarch level disciple of the Bai Family. Then, he discovered the secret base of Xinhong Corporation in Pandora. These things were not a big deal to Sheng Hao Corporation. In fact, they were quite beneficial.
Lan Bing frowned slightly. "Anjie, does the CEO have something to say about Blue Moon's branch?"
Yu Anjie nodded approvingly at first. Then, he said in a low voice, "Lil Bing, I just received news that the Starry Rainbow Group has teamed up with the Tianhang, Hongyue, and Zhengxing families to announce a partnership on the happy planet Orange. Only Shenghao is excluded."
Planet Orange had recently discovered a large number of mineral resources. Originally, it was a situation where the five families jointly invested in it. Now that Xinhong Corporation had done this, it was undoubtedly to kick Sheng Hao Corporation out. Although Sheng Hao and Xinhong Corporation had always had conflicts, a direct confrontation like this was very rare.
Lan Bing also knew about the Orange Star Mine. If the Sheng Hao Group couldn't participate in it, the headquarters would suffer a great loss. It seemed that the Star Rainbow Group's sudden action must have something to do with Ding Meng.
"An Jie, did you find out anything about Ding Meng?" Lan Bing probed.
Yu Anjie sighed, "My father was curious as well. Before Ling Zhixing made any big moves, he would always inform us beforehand. However, this time, he chose to break the agreement without saying a word. We were guessing that something on our side might have triggered the Starbow Corporation. Last night, I asked a friend to investigate and found out that not only did Ding Meng discover the Starbow Corporation's secret teleportation base on Planet V9, he even started a fight. He directly killed two of the Starbow Corporation's high level Battle-Monarchs and crippled three of their beginner level Battle-Saints. Apparently, these people were Ling Xingqi's forces …"
It would be strange if Lan Bing wasn't shocked by this insider information. Ding Meng was indeed ruthless. He even dared to provoke Ling Xingqi and even destroyed such a powerful force. It would be strange if the Ling family didn't get angry. They would definitely take action.
Of course, the Starbow Corporation's actions could be interpreted as revenge or as looting a burning house. Since they dared to touch Miss Ling's direct subordinates, they naturally had their own ways to deal with the Sheng Hao Group.
However, Lan Bing's expression didn't change, "An Jie, how much will our Sheng Hao Group lose because of the Orange Star Mine?"
Yu Anjie looked at her meaningfully, "According to the market department's preliminary estimates, the loss will be more than 600 billion."
Lan Bing showed an apologetic expression, "An Jie, I'm really sorry. I didn't restrain my subordinates well."
Hearing her answer, Yu Anjie showed a gratified smile, "Xiao Bing, you don't have to blame yourself. Our group can still afford such a small loss. Ding Meng is to my liking. My sister also has high hopes for him."
Lan Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Since such a big thing has happened, I should remind him."
Yu Anjie smiled, "You don't have to restrain him too much. Those old men in Sheng Hao lack his ruthlessness. The stronger they are, the more cowardly they become. I really don't know what's the point of cultivating so desperately. They're not even as good as Ding Meng!"
Lan Bing smiled bitterly, "Miss, you're also paying attention to Ding Meng?"
Yu Anjie also seemed to be smiling bitterly, "Xiao Bing, to tell you the truth, I originally wanted to transfer Ding Meng to the headquarters. However, considering that you haven't arrived at the headquarters yet and he's at the Blue Moon branch, I don't have to worry too much about you. After all, Sister Wei is just a warlord. If she encounters unreasonable people, you will only suffer losses …"
"This …" Lan Bing really didn't know how to answer. No matter how she looked at it, she was definitely not willing to let Ding Meng go to the headquarters.
After Ding Meng returned to the Federation, it could be seen from these few incidents that Ding Meng's strength could only be described as unfathomable. In other words, he was a powerful backer. Everyone wanted to ride on his coattails. How could they push him away?
Yu Anjie continued, "But my sister and I discussed it yesterday. She said that she hopes that you will report to the headquarters when the time is right …"
Only Lan Bing understood what he meant. Because of his relationship with Lan Bing, he had never received the support of his parents.
As the young master of the Shenghao Group, Yu Anjie had countless suitors. The most important problem was that he was still unmarried. According to the Federation's convention, Yu Anjie's first wife had to be the daughter of a big family from a big financial group. They had to be well-matched in terms of social status. However, Lan Bing came from a poor family and had once committed herself to the Haitian Group. This definitely did not meet the requirements of Yu Anjie's parents.
Of course, Yu Anjie's parents weren't stubborn people. Regardless of whether Lan Bing was his girlfriend or his first wife, Yu Anjie could do whatever he wanted with her. Lan Bing couldn't be the first wife of the Yu Family. This wasn't negotiable.
Therefore, almost none of the senior management of Shenghao Group supported the relationship between Yu Anjie and Lan Bing. The only person who supported it was Yu Anjie's eldest sister.
The reason was very simple. If a woman wanted to support another woman, there was no need for a reason. If she was happy, she liked it, and she was willing to do so. If you have the guts, come and provoke the eldest sister of the Yu Family. Do you have the guts?
Now that Yu Anjie mentioned the words "the time is right", Lan Bing instantly understood. This so-called "time is right" was probably going to make a fuss about Ding Meng.
Sure enough, Yu Anjie continued, "This time, Planet V9 and Planet Orange may seem unrelated, but in fact, both of them are related. You don't have to worry about the headquarters. The fact that the Blue Moon branch can withstand the external pressure this time is enough to prove that you and Ding Meng are qualified to come to Saint Splendor. My sister also wants to meet Ding Meng. She didn't invest in this year's Star Wars League under Shenghao's name. Instead, she registered a club herself and is currently recruiting members. I can tell you the truth. She used all her private savings and even borrowed 200 billion from me. Based on the lineup she has now, I estimate that she will lose everything in less than half a year …"
Lan Bing couldn't help but laugh. "Ding Meng isn't on the list now. Does he count as someone with potential?"
Yu Anjie also laughed. "Tell him and see if he is interested.
We definitely won't treat him badly in this aspect. "
Lan Bing nodded. "Okay, I will definitely pass on your behalf."
After the call ended, Lan Bing continued to work. Not long after, a new message popped up in her low-light glasses. It was a call from Yu Lingwei.
"What's the matter?" Lan Bing asked in a deep voice.
Yu Lingwei said, "President Lan, Secretary Ding has returned to Blue Pole Star City."
"Tell him to report to me. I have something to discuss with him," Lan Bing said indifferently.
She did need to remind Ding Meng that the commotion he caused was getting bigger and bigger. This time, no matter what, he had to stop for a while.
She was still in deep thought when she realized that the call on her glasses hadn't ended. She couldn't help but ask, "Sister Wei, is there anything else?"
This time, Yu Lingwei's answer wasn't very clear. "President Lan, President Shen of the Jinling Group wants to see you. He has been waiting in the reception area for the entire morning."
Lan Bing frowned. "Why is he here again?"
Yu Lingwei understood her thoughts and took the initiative to explain, "President Lan, at this critical juncture, the Blue Moon branch of Star Rainbow Group is fully targeting us. Jinling Group is one of the few partners of Shenghao. It doesn't seem good to refuse. Moreover, he came to see you by appointment this time."
Lan Bing said, "Well, let him come up!"
Jinling Group was also a reputable company in Blue Pole Star City, but its scale was far inferior to Shenghao's. However, Jinling Group and Rainbow Gold Group were both partners of Shenghao's Blue Moon branch. They played a very important role in the supply of metal minerals. To put it bluntly, they were strategic partners. However, since Lan Bing became the president of Blue Moon, Shen Xi, the vice president of Jinling Group, was amazed by the beauty of this young president. He would come to the Star Peak Building every few days and invited her many times. Unfortunately, President Lan didn't agree even once.
Of course, the main reason was that this young master of the Shen family didn't know that President Lan was President Yu's girlfriend. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to pursue Lan Bing even if he had ten thousand guts. The most terrible thing was that very few people knew about this news. Even if they knew, no one would tell him.
At this moment, a young man in a suit and leather shoes entered the president's office and stood respectfully beside the sofa. "Hello, President Lan!"
"President Shen, please sit down!"
Lan Bing was also very generous. Although she knew that this was her pursuer, she didn't neglect him because Shen Xi wasn't as annoying as a headless fly. At least, he was well-behaved.
Shen Xi showed a gentle smile. "President Lan, according to the contract, all the goods for this month have been stored. I came here to report to you."
Lan Bing also smiled and said, "This kind of thing, we really have to trouble President Shen to come here in person!"
What she meant was that for a small matter like fulfilling the contract on time, he could have just informed her through instant messaging. There was no need for him to come in person.
Shen Xi stood up and said respectfully, "President Lan, Jinling and your group have cooperated for many years. After you took office, we cooperated even more happily. So today, I want to take this opportunity to invite President Lan to lunch. What do you think?"
This was where he was more mischievous because Lan Bing had explicitly rejected his pursuit, but he turned a deaf ear to it. Anyway, he was either giving her flowers or inviting her to lunch. He had a persevering spirit. This made Lan Bing a little annoyed. After all, he was Shenghao's partner. She couldn't drive him away with a cold face.
Lan Bing smiled and said, "I'm sorry, President Shen. I already have an appointment today. Another day!"
Shen Xi continued to show the spirit of sticking to Lan Bing. "President Lan, I have already booked a place in the Galaxy Dynasty. I hope you can give me some face. My father is very grateful to Shenghao Group."
Then your father can invite the senior management of Shenghao Group. What do you mean by asking me out?
Lan Bing really wanted to reply with this sentence.
However, at this moment, the office door opened automatically. Another man in a suit walked in slowly. Looking at his casual appearance, it felt as if he had entered his own backyard.
However, as soon as this person came in, Lan Bing immediately stood up. The smile on her face became wider. "You're finally back!"
Seeing this situation, Shen Xi suddenly became very nervous.
