My Daily Basic Stipend Is 10 Million

Chapter 170: Chapter 158: Bountiful Reward

"So what if Chen Xiao has to suck it up and apologize? So what if he has to get on his knees? It’s for business, it’s not embarrassing!"

Feng Feifei stopped and said to Zhang Jun, "Forget Chen Xiao. Even if it were any other salesperson, I wouldn’t stand by and watch them be humiliated like that. I don’t want an order like this!"

Seeing her firm attitude and knowing her unyielding personality, Zhang Jun sighed. "It’s okay, Feifei. I’ll go back and smooth things over. No need to burn bridges."

Feng Feifei nodded. After all, Zhang Jun meant well, so she couldn’t really blame him.

She said to Chen Xiao, "Chen Xiao, let’s go back!"

But Zhang Jun stopped Chen Xiao. "Xiao Chen, do you know what it takes to be successful? Do you know what success even is?"

Chen Xiao watched him calmly, wondering what a priceless expression he’d make if he replied, ’Success requires laziness. Success requires a daily basic stipend.’

Zhang Jun pulled out a car key. "See this? Every successful man should own a Land Rover. Have you ever thought about how far you are from success?"

"Success requires enduring humiliation, not just doing whatever you want. Your stupidity is making your boss pay the price. Don’t you feel guilty?"

"Zhang Jun, that’s enough! Let’s just end it here for today," Feng Feifei cut him off.

Chen Xiao followed Feng Feifei back to the private room.

"Chen Xiao, don’t be angry. Zhang Jun is just a bit of a snob."

Chen Xiao said, "I’m not mad at him. President Hou has already toughened me up. Getting angry at people like him is just making things hard on yourself."

Seeing his resigned expression, Feng Feifei’s anger instantly vanished. She said, "President Hou isn’t even here, and you’re still badmouthing him."

She knew Chen Xiao meant that Zhang Jun, like Hou Fei, was brainless.

Meanwhile, Zhang Jun returned to the private room looking displeased. He said to everyone present, "Sorry about that, for spoiling everyone’s fun. It’s just that salesperson doesn’t know what’s good for him!"

"No worries, President Zhang. That’s why he’s just a salesperson!"

"Yeah, and not just a salesperson, but probably one who doesn’t even know how to do his job!"

"President Zhang, that President Feng... which company is she from? You two make a great couple!"

The remark was exactly what Zhang Jun wanted to hear. Grinning from ear to ear, he also realized he hadn’t mentioned Feng Feifei’s company name.

President Qian raised his glass and said, "Come on, everyone, let’s have a drink! Forget about that fucking idiot of a salesperson. I wouldn’t even glance at someone like that if he knelt before me!"

As Zhang Jun raised his glass, he replied, "President Feng is the boss of Dr. Feng’s Robot Co., Ltd.!"

President Qian’s glass fell with a CLATTER. Everyone immediately looked at him. They saw him ask nervously, "Dr. Feng’s Robot Co., Ltd.?"

Zhang Jun said, "Yeah!"

President Qian’s face turned pale. He pressed on, "What’s the name of that salesperson from just now?"

"His name is Chen Xiao. Just some worthless salesperson. So clueless, he’ll probably never land a single order!"

President Qian collapsed to the floor with a THUMP. The person next to him hurried to help him up. "President Qian, what’s wrong? Did you drink too much?"

He quickly got up and said, "President Zhang, which private room were President Feng and her associate in just now? May I go over and offer a toast?"

"..."

"Qian, what’s wrong with you?"

"President Qian, is something wrong?"

President Qian sighed. "It’s nothing. I’m going to go apologize..."

’Damn it, it’s all Zhang Jun’s fault for not being clear. If he had just said they were from Dr. Feng’s Robot Company earlier, I definitely wouldn’t have been so arrogant.’

’A few days ago, I was forced to hold my nose and sign a 20 million contract. I’m still shaken by it. Back then, I marveled at how much power that Chen Xiao had.’

’The guy could influence whether Junxiao Capital invests or not with a single sentence. Instead of getting on his good side, I offended him. Wasn’t I an idiot?’

’What if I need more financing later? Junxiao Capital is famous in the industry now. They invest as soon as they see a good prospect, and they’re quick with the money.’

’How could I dare offend a patron like that!’

’An apology. I have to apologize. If Chen Xiao doesn’t forgive me today, all 220 pounds of me are done for!’

Zhang Jun had no idea what had gotten into him. The idiom "arrogant at first, deferential later" was no longer enough to describe him. Right now, he was just like a child who’d misbehaved, waiting for his parents to spank him.

President Qian, carrying a bottle of baijiu in one hand and holding a glass in the other, tremblingly followed Zhang Jun out of the private room.

"What do you guys think is wrong with Qian? Why does he look so scared?"

"Yeah, I noticed that too. It seemed like as soon as President Zhang mentioned that the two from earlier were from Dr. Feng’s Robot, Qian got all tense."

"Dr. Feng’s Robot... Holy crap, no way. It reminds me of a rumor I heard a few days ago."

"What rumor? Liu, tell us!"

The other presidents were getting curious. People who navigated the business world were always keen on juicy news, and besides, President Qian’s reaction had been truly unbelievable.

"I heard that a while ago, Qian started a new project and was desperate for funds. He approached a lot of investment firms to discuss financing, but nothing worked out!"

As he said this, the others grew interested. After all, they all ran tech companies. Which of them didn’t need financing? Without it, were they supposed to burn their own money on R&D? Who had that kind of money to burn?

"Hurry up and tell us! Get to the point!"

As Liu spoke, he picked up his glass to take a sip of water. ’Damn it, he’s pausing at the most crucial part. What a cliffhanger! Is he even human?’

"Later, on a friend’s recommendation, Qian found a company called Junxiao Capital Management Company. He went to talk to them, just thinking he’d give it a shot."

"And guess what? He actually struck a deal. But supposedly, there was a prerequisite for the investment: the R&D part had to be done in collaboration with Dr. Feng’s Robot!"
