Donald Qin sneered and said, "It seemed that Mr. Chen didn't prepare himself well before he came here for the meeting. He doesn't even know the basics."
Ignoring Donald Qin's sarcasm, Fade Chen kept his composure and said blankly, "I admit I don't know much about it. So, I would like to ask Secretary Qin why are we not choosing Xu Chemicals?"
Donald Qin glanced around at everyone and finally allowed his gaze to fall back to Fade Chen. Donald Qin arrogantly said, "Since you've asked, I'll tell you."
Donald Qin continued, "In terms of quality, Xu Chemicals is undoubtedly the best choice. It can even be said that there is no need for discussion. Xu Chemicals is the best in the industry as it is a subsidiary of Xu Enterprises Holdings. The scale of the factory is also considered as one of the largest in the province and also in the country. From what I've just mentioned, it's not hard to see that the quality of their product is very good."
"But you have forgotten the most important thing, which is, Xu Chemicals products are mainly supplied to top domestic brands or even foreign famous cosmetics brands. Their raw materials were sold out almost as soon as it is produced. There is nothing else left to be sold to us. Besides, the price of raw materials from Xu Chemicals is a lot higher than that of other companies. So, why would we choose a supplier who is completely impossible to sign a contract with?" As he ended his speech, Donald Qin looked at Fade Chen conceitedly.
Fade Chen, however, looked calm. He nodded and said, " I see. If that's the case, then it makes sense."
"Of course, it does. Do you think that we are fools, and you are the only one who is smart?" Donald Qin sneered.
Fade Chen ignored him and said to Quin Lin, "Dea... President Lin, if there is a chance to negotiate with Xu Chemicals, would it be very beneficial for the company?"
"Of course. But-" Quin Lin whispered.
This conversation was heard by Donald Qin, who then said, "Cooperate with Xu Chemicals? Hah, do you think that the negotiation is as simple as what you are talking about?"
"We have spent three years offering a price which is 30% higher than the market price to Xu Chemicals in order to get the opportunity to get their products. Even succeed in the negotiation. They would not even sell us their testers. In this case, I would like to ask Mr. Chen, how would you negotiate with Xu Chemicals? By relying on your mouth?" As soon as Donald Qin finished speaking, laughter we didn't was heard all around the conference room.
The management executives looked at Fade Chen strangely.
Such a situation made Quin Lin frown. She wanted to stop everyone.
Just then, Fade Chen held her down and whispered, "It's fine."
Then, Fade Chen stood up and walked out of the meeting room. Looking at Fade Chen's actions, Donald Qin frowned and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"Relying on my mouth to negotiate with Xu Chemicals, Fade Chen laughed.
"Hah- you, are you kidding me?", Donald Qin said coldly, "But I will let you know that on such an occasion, your joke is not funny at all."
Quin Lin was also a little surprised. She looked at Fade Chen and said, "Fade Chen, you-"
Fade Chen gave her a reassuring look and then said, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Right after, Fade Chen gave Donald Qin a look and went straight out of the conference room.
Donald Qin sneered and sarcastically said, "It seems that some people still have some self-awareness and is ashamed. Good to know that they are leaving on their own."
Donald Qin continued to announce. "The meeting will continue. To those who haven't spoken yet, please stand up and voice your opinion!"
The meeting continued inside the room.
Outside, Fade Chen took out the business card Mr. Xu gave him yesterday and looked at the name on it, "Nicholas Xu, the chairman of Xu Enterprises Holdings. He should have some say in Xu Chemicals."
Then, Fade Chen dialled the number.
A few minutes later, Fade Chen ended the call and returned to the meeting room.
Donald Qin immediately looked over and said sarcastically, "Why are you back again? Have our Doctor Chen managed to negotiate with Xu Chemicals?"
The crowd burst into laughter.
Fade Chen's eyes were indifferent and he said flatly, "Basically, yes!"
"What?" Donald Qin was stunned, and he then looked at Fade Chen with astonishment and laughed straight in Fade Chen's face, "I'm just kidding with you. How could you take it seriously? You said that you have almost negotiated with Xu Chemicals? You are such a liar!"
The other executives were also startled and then they started laughing at Fade Chen mockingly. Obviously, they didn't believe what Fade Chen had said.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Even Quin Lin's expression changed. She looked at Fade Chen and reminded him, "Don't be angry with Donald Qin. Just listen."
Fade Chen wanted to explain, but when he saw Quin Lin waving her hand to continue the meeting, he knew better than to interrupt the meeting and decided to just listen quietly.
The meeting continued. Several managers put forward their own opinions and stated the partners they like.
Finally, after almost everyone had spoken, only Donald Qin was left.
Obviously, this was arranged on purpose. Donald Qin straightened his necktie and stood up with a smile. Donald Qin then made a gesture to the crowd before saying confidently, "President Lin and my dear colleagues, my choice is No. 2 supplier, 'Pai's Chemical'.
Donald Qin added on, "This company is not bad. Although it can't be compared with the big companies like Xu's, it is still considered to be in the upper ranks in our province. In terms of price, quality, stability of supply, and so on, it is in the upper- middle position. Moreover, two years ago, our company had cooperated with Pai's Chemical.."
After a long speech, Donald Qin concluded, "In conclusion, think Pai's Chemical is the most suitable supplier for our company. With this, I will end my speech."
As Donald Qin finished his words, a round of applause was given to Donald Qin in the conference room.
Many executives even spoke out and supported Donald Qin right then.
"Secretary Qin, you've made a good point. I also think that Pai's Chemical is a good choice."
"Indeed, Secretary Qin's explanation is clear and reasonable, and the data is detailed. Pai's Chemical is a good choice."
"At first, I was leaning more towards number 4. However, after listening to Secretary Qin, I think number two is more suitable than number four."
"It is true that Secretary Qin never disappoints. He has done a good job.

Listening to everyone speaking highly of Donald Qin, Fade Chen couldn't help but be amused. Even if he didn't have much work experience, he could see that many of these people who flattered Donald Qin were not sincere.
It seemed that Donald Qin really did a lot of preparations before the meeting. However, it was probably not on the data, but on his interpersonal relations.
