For a while, the entire conference room had an extraordinarily depressing and complicated atmosphere.
Governor Li was sitting in the main seat of the conference room, staring at the laptop in front of him with a calm face, not looking at the expressions of the other people in the conference room, and not responding to the gazes of these people when they looked at him.
It was as if these people did not exist.
However, only Governor Li himself knew in his heart that his heart was far from being as calm and collected as it appeared on the outside.
The so-called calmness and composure was just a pretence.
At this moment, he was more nervous and anxious than anyone else.
“Governor.” At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit suddenly stood up in the conference room and spoke up, breaking the eerie silence in the room first.
Everyone else’s faces changed and they all looked at him.
This included the Governor Li as well.
The moment Governor Li heard this man call out to him, he understood in his heart that what was to come was always going to come, and that the silence and quietness, could never be maintained all the time.
With a secret sigh, after squeezing the mouse in his hand, Governor Li raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man, still keeping his surface calm and asked, “What is it?”
“Governor, you said that Mr. Fu would definitely be grateful to our bank for helping Miss Rong, and then step in to help our bank and not let our bank’s cla*s be scattered in this way, and we trusted you, so against the pressure of the bank’s vault being depleted, we agreed to you taking out a loan of 200 million to Miss Rong, but now what? We waited from daylight until three or four in the morning, and we haven’t heard anything from Fu’s side about helping us.” The middle-aged man pointed at Governor Li with an angry face and demanded for an explanation.
When the others heard this, they also nodded their heads in unison, agreeing strongly with his words.
“Yes, Governor, beforehand, you had repeatedly promised that Mr. Fu would definitely accept the favour, but now there is no news from the Fu Group, how can we trust you again?”
“That’s right.” Another person agreed, “If the Fu Group really doesn’t care about us, then won’t the 200 million we loaned out be the last straw to hasten the dissolution of our team? If that’s the case, Governor, can you afford to take responsibility for this? After all, it was you who insisted on the loan.”
At these words, everyone looked at Governor Li, their eyes questioning and sharp.
If Governor Li had been in the market for a long time, he would have been under some pressure in the face of the people’s questions, and even began to wonder if he was really wrong in his predictions.
During this period of time, because of the bank’s funds being transferred, plus the fact that they were the main branch, their annual deposit performance was more than ten times higher than the branches below.
Only in this way could he retain his position as the head of the main branch in Haicheng, and the team below him, could remain, instead of all being demoted and transferred to the branches below.
It’s just that nowadays, the rich people in China don’t like to keep their money in domestic banks, but choose foreign banks instead.
That’s why the performance of their main branch this year has been slow to hit the mark.
Now that it is almost New Year’s Eve and the deposit performance is still not up to standard, he, the head of the main branch, is under pressure and goes to those companies every day to persuade their chairmen to deposit their money in their banks.
But the rich people were so determined not to give up that he was losing his hair.
When he was anxious and didn’t know what to do, he suddenly received a call from Rong Shu, the chairman of Tiansheng Group, who is also the girlfriend of the chairman of Fu’s group.
When he found out that Rong Shu’s intention was to take out a loan, or such a large sum of money, he immediately realised that something must have happened to Tiansheng and his chance had come.
It is also true that he immediately agreed to come out and meet with Rong Shu, in order to personally confirm that his opportunity, could be seized and implemented.
The reason is that he himself specializes in psychology, and as long as he met Rong Shu, he could definitely be sure.
The first thing you need to do is to get to know the person you are talking to.
Such a person was simply too good for him to raid, too good to use.
Therefore, the moment he met Rong Shu, he understood that his plan was mostly secure.
This woman, Rong Shu, wanted to save face and cared even more about what the outside world saw, fearing that people outside would say that she was a doddering flower and would only rely on men.
For this reason, in the end, she could only go down the road of borrowing money.
Obviously, she can easily solve anything by simply approaching Fu Jingting, but she refuses to do so, preferring to approach outsiders, and isn’t this just giving her door away to be used?
All in all, Rongshu had the background and backing to not even use it, what was this if not foolishness?
If she hadn’t refused to ask for Fu Jingting’s help, he wouldn’t have had this opportunity.
And as he was a man, he knew very well how Fu Jingting, who was also a man, would feel when he learnt that his woman, who would rather go to someone else than ask for his help.
Although he was not sure whether the relationship between Fu Jingting and Rong Shu was stable or not at this time, but men, too, are good at saving face.
As long as the two people had not broken up, whether there was conflict or not, as long as one of them ignored himself and went to seek help from someone else, the other party would not be happy.
Therefore, he deliberately pretended to act as if the two were good, and painstakingly persuaded Rong Shu, and also advised Rong Shu to go back and talk to Fu Jingting properly and open up a bit.
In order to do so, he hoped that Rongshu would tell Fu Jingting all about his persuasion, so that Fu Jingting would know that he had helped them behind the scenes.
In this way, wouldn’t Fu Jingting owe him a favour?
And he knew very well that Fu Jingting, a man who never owed anyone a favour, would basically return the favour on the spot and would never be stingy with his return hug.
In short, what he did during the day was a gamble.
If he succeeded in the bet, he would keep his position, and if he lost the bet ……
No, during the day, he never thought he would lose the bet, after all, he had always been very accurate in reading people, and every step he took, he had never failed.
His plan was perfect.
But now, he was a little less confident and was beginning to have self-doubts, was he really going to lose the bet?
When Rongshu went back, she didn’t listen to him and talk to Fu Jingting, not putting his words into words.
So did Fu Jingting still not know what he had done by now?
Or there was another possibility, that Rongshu had said it and Fu Jingting knew it, but hadn’t taken his persuasion of Rongshu seriously, and might even have felt angry and ready to retaliate against him!
After all, what he had done had taken advantage of Rongshu and had also counted on Fu Jingting.
Fu Jingting was a smart man, and there was no way he wouldn’t have thought of his purpose and calculations.
In fact, before he carried out this plan, he had considered the possibility that Fu Jingting would become furious and even take action against him after guessing his plan.
After all, no one likes to be set up.
But he had no choice, this was his only chance, no matter what the outcome was, he had to give it a try, just to see if Fu Jingting would be more serious.
If he was serious, then he would accept Fu Jingting’s revenge openly. If he was not serious and Fu Jingting was willing to accept this favour from him, then of course it would be best.
But the situation now is that he simply can’t guess whether Fu Jingting, the man, will be more serious or not.
