Chapter 1243 Report and Analysis
"Alright, I don't care about that! Is there something you need on the phone?" Wei Hong asked.
“Young Miss, the boss has given me orders to come to South Korea and thoroughly investigate the assassin! So I need to ask you about some specific details of the incident!” Sovokov said.
"I'm currently waiting for news at Dayu Group, and I don't have time to go back for the time being! Otherwise, you can wait for me to go back this afternoon, or you can ask Situ Haonan to let us celebrate the New Year together!" Wei Hong said after thinking for a moment.
“Young Miss, we are keeping a secret and cannot have any contact with the leaders of the Tianqiao Society!” Sovokov said helplessly.
"Alright, I'll have Situ organize the data. Come to my room at the branch office at four o'clock this afternoon!" Wei Hong said after thinking for a moment.
“Yes, Miss, I’ll come to see you this afternoon!” Sovokov said.
"Boss, it's only noon. How about we go eat first? We can go find Miss after we finish eating?" Zhang Jun said.
"Alright!" Sovokov glanced at the time and could only say helplessly.
Meanwhile, at a steel mill under the Samsung Group, Xu Banxia and Tong Xiaoqi, led by Xiaowen, were requesting a meeting with the mill's purchasing manager.
Unfortunately, whether it's because Xu Banxia is from China or because her company isn't well-known, she hasn't been able to meet the manager even after making appointments for three consecutive days.
"Sister, why don't we go back? At worst, I'll go back to Madam Gao and ask her to help us out! We're not going to put up with this nonsense here!" Tong Xiaoqi said, somewhat exasperated.
"What are you yelling about? Does Madam Gao have the ability to lend us tens of millions? Sit down right now!" Xu Banxia said irritably.
Tong Xiaoqi looked at Xu Banxia and could only sit down helplessly! After all, he knew that although Madam Gao was rich, she did not have the ability to lend them tens of millions of yuan at once!
"Sister Banxia, how about we ask the Tianqiao Society for a loan? After all, they are quite powerful in Mingzhu! Besides, didn't you meet Sister Daisy on the plane? As a member of the Tianqiao Society's high-ranking family, she should be very rich, right?" Xiaowen asked tentatively.
“That’s even more impossible! We’ve only met once, we’re at most acquaintances! Do you think they would lend money to someone they’ve only met once?” Xu Banxia said with a bitter expression.
“Maybe not! Didn’t that lady surnamed Zhao on the plane think highly of you? Plus, with her connections, lending a few million for temporary cash flow shouldn’t be a problem, right? After all, we just need to get rid of those people blocking the commune demanding money! The rest is the money of the bosses, and they’re not in a hurry!” Tong Xiaoqi chimed in.
"That's impossible! Let's drop this matter! It's more reliable to try to sell those steel materials!" Xu Banxia rolled her eyes and glared at Tong Xiaoqi, saying irritably.
“But this manager won’t see us! It’s been three days! We didn’t bring much money to begin with, and it’s almost gone! We can only hold on for two more days at most. After that, we’ll have to swim home!” Tong Xiaoqi said helplessly.
"Today is the last day! If we still can't see that manager today, I'll go back and think of something!" Xu Banxia said.
"Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Xu Banxia from the mainland?" Just as the three were hesitating, a secretary in a gray suit came up to them and asked with a curious look on her face.
"That's me, I'm Xu Banxia!" Xu Banxia quickly stood up and said upon hearing the woman's question.
"Hello, Ms. Xu! Our manager has just finished work and has a meeting coming up, so he can spare five minutes to meet with you!" the secretary said with a smile.
"Then let's go quickly!" Upon hearing this, Xu Banxia immediately stood up and walked towards the manager's office.
"Madam, you may only enter the manager's office alone!" Seeing Tong Xiaoqi and Xiao Wen trying to follow, the secretary quickly stopped them from going in.
“Well then, Xiaowen is my translator, so she has to come in with me! Let Tong Xiaoqi wait here!” Xu Banxia said.
After considering it for a moment, the secretary finally nodded in agreement. However, her gaze towards Xu Banxia held a hint of disdain. "You come to our Samsung Group to discuss business cooperation, why don't you learn some great Korean yourself? With an attitude like yours, is there any possibility of cooperation?"
Even though she was surprised, the secretary dutifully led Xu Banxia and Xiao Wen toward the manager's office. She was just a secretary and dared not make decisions for the manager.
Soon, Xu Banxia met the purchasing manager, whom she hadn't seen for the previous two days.
"Manager, this is Ms. Xu Banxia from the mainland and her secretary, Xiaowen!" the secretary said with a smile.
"Secretary Kim, you can go back now! I'll call you if I need anything!" the manager said with a smile to the secretary.
"Ms. Xu, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Zhang Yumin, the purchasing manager of the steel plant! May I ask what important matter Ms. Xu Banxia has come to see us about?" Manager Zhang asked curiously.
"Manager Zhang, I'm really sorry, but my stuff is really good! I specially brought back some high-quality steel from the Black Sea! I can offer you sixty US dollars per ton!" Xu Banxia said, getting straight to the point.
"Oh? Sixty dollars a ton? From the Black Sea?" Manager Zhang pondered, his gaze towards Xu Banxia filled with admiration.
Everyone knows what's going on by the Black Sea these days. It's really not easy for a woman like her to import steel from there!
However, as the largest steel plant in South Korea, it actually has no experience in recycling scrap steel.
On the one hand, South Korea has a long-term supply chain of high-quality iron ore. On the other hand, scrap steel is hard to find and expensive, so there is no expectation that the price at the port will be less than one hundred US dollars per ton.
Xu Banxia and Xiao Wen watched Manager Zhang sitting there deep in thought while anxiously awaiting the verdict!
“Miss Xu, I really can’t make a decision on this matter. After all, we’ve always used iron ore for smelting before, and we’ve never tried using scrap steel before! So I need to ask for instructions from above! So I can only ask you to go back and wait for news for now! I will definitely give you an answer before noon tomorrow!” Manager Zhang said with a serious expression.
“No problem! We can wait another day without any problem! Manager Zhang, here’s my business card. If you have any news, just have someone give me a call!” Xu Banxia said with a smile.
"Alright, then I won't see you off! Secretary Jin, please see the guests out for me!" Manager Zhang said to the outside.
