Chapter 896: Giving help in times of need is better than adding icing on the cake
Song Mengting also knew that she had not yet fully gained Fang Yang's trust, and she did not have much reaction to his words:
"Ella has invited all her personal friends, you can do whatever you want. By the way, I have asked the engineering team to leave for Jiangbei today. The first batch should arrive at noon tomorrow."
Fang Yang didn't even raise his eyelids: "You have Shen Tong's contact information. You can contact her directly when you arrive, and arrangements will naturally be made."
At this time, there was a burst of applause in the hall, and Ella, the protagonist tonight, finally made her debut.
Wearing a sky blue tight-fitting backless floor-length skirt, with a flash of blond hair hanging casually on her shoulders, she nodded elegantly to everyone:
"I'm very happy that everyone came to my reception and I hope we can have this beautiful evening together."
Fang Yang still didn't understand the significance of such a drinking party, but it seemed that Anthony was much more comfortable than him, and had successfully penetrated into the circle next to him, and they had a great time chatting with him.
There are still considerable differences between Eastern and Western cultures. He doesn't think he has much in common with a group of people he doesn't know. At the very least, he lacks a sufficient sense of trust.
Fang Yang already regretted it. When he came, he was impressed by BMB's business capabilities and influence, and wanted to try out the possibility of joining forces.
It is still quite difficult to solve Yangming's current predicament by tapping its own potential. Combine as many allies as possible for better results.
But now, Ella was wandering among many friends and didn't seem to notice him at all, which left Fang Yang with little patience left.
Fang Yang was lost in thought while holding a glass of red wine, and was considering whether he could find a way to leave early, but found that Ella finally walked in front of him.
Maybe because she was more excited and drank some more wine, Ella's cheeks were a little red. "Hi~ I'm glad you can come to my cocktail party. You look... very special today."
It is indeed special. All the male guests are dressed in formal attire, either suits or evening gowns. Only Fang Yang was dressed casually, with the buttons on his chest still open.
Fang Yang also knew what Ella meant: "Oh? Do you feel that the appearance of a country bumpkin like me makes you, the master, lose face?"
"That's not true. After all, this is a private reception." Ella paused and looked at Fang Yang with big eyes:
"I asked you to come here because I want to apologize to you in person. It was my fault that day because of my irrationality that you suffered a series of harassment and crises. I'm lucky that you accepted my invitation."
"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway." Fang Yang shrugged: "I decided to attend this cocktail party after learning about some things about BMB Company.
As I believe you should know, my company is in some trouble. That's why I considered that maybe BMB could give me some help. "
Ella looked even more excited: "Oh, dear, I know your company. If you decide to cooperate with us, it will be the best gift I have received this year.
I don’t know how you want to position our cooperation? Our company is not just about business information and data analysis. "
This is not a compliment. A company that mainly focuses on information data analysis and media likes to join forces with large companies.
In addition to common interests, if a company's influence is large enough, it will have more related news sources and have more commercial value.
It's like a chicken-and-egg situation, almost like a snowball.
BMB has grown step by step from a small company of less than 20 square meters to today's scale, and we are well aware of the stakes involved.
Fang Yang asked seriously: "Then what kind of business do you have?"
Ella took a sip of red wine and said softly: "For example, our in-depth intelligence sharing. BMB Company is not just a commercial data business."
This condition made Fang Yang unable to refuse. Although he is currently working hard to expand and integrate his intelligence system, the effects of this cannot be seen in three or two days.
Fang Yang's expression did not change: "Then what can you get?"
"You need to think about this carefully."
Obviously Ella was also a little undecided: “Originally, I wanted Yangming’s shares, but even that old fox Wall couldn’t get them, so I’m afraid I don’t have much chance.
As the overseas general agent of Yang Ming Group, you have handed it over to IFC. It is a pity that you did not get a bite of this big cake.
I really don’t understand why you would pay such a high price. Giving half of it is already a huge profit. "
"There is an old saying in the East that providing help in times of need is better than adding icing on the cake." Fang Yang did not have the slightest regret:
“Some time ago, when Yang Ming Group was in its most difficult time, it was the emergence of IFC that stabilized the situation and bought us time and initiative.
Maybe you may find it difficult to understand, but I don't think there is anything wrong with this, they deserve it! So, let’s talk about your conditions. "
"You are really a weirdo, it seems like nothing can be hidden from you." Ella sighed: "Okay, my condition is that we both form a joint venture to establish a scientific research and development center.
All research results of the scientific research and development center are jointly owned by both of us. Yang Ming Group has the right of first choice. What do you think of this condition? "
"Development center? Are you sure? Are you so optimistic about Yang Ming? Maybe this is a losing business." Fang Yang was a little surprised by Aila's request.
After all, scientific research and development is simply a waste of money. As for when the results will be achieved and what kind of value will be created, it is still unknown.
In other words, if the two parties really reach an agreement, Ella will not get any direct benefits at all, but will have to pay for it herself!
Ella disagreed: "We are just doing business, how can we make profit without losing money? Without investment, there is no return. The greater the investment, the greater the return."
How many years has it been since you founded Yang Ming Group? Now Yang Ming Group’s global ranking has reached 173rd!
For a company that continues to create miracles, who can limit its upper limit? I am very optimistic that Yang Ming can break into the top 50 in the world! Of course, you can also do me a little favor. "
"I can only express my feelings with madness." Fang Yang was stunned. He never expected that this seemingly delicate and fashionable woman would have such vision and determination!
Ella didn't care at all: "Thank you, maybe I can do better."
"Oh, dear Ella, you are like the brightest moon in the night sky, lighting up the entire earth!"
"I'm done, can I be more numb?" Fang Yang felt goosebumps falling all over the floor, and suddenly realized that if you don't understand anything, it is actually a very beautiful thing.
Ella turned around and said in surprise: "Reno? Why are you back?"
A tall man walked in at the door, more than 1.9 meters tall, with red hair and brown eyes. The bridge of the nose is high and angular, calm yet passionate.
Fang Yang vaguely felt an indescribable aura from his body, which made him very uncomfortable.
Renault crossed the crowd, walked to Ella, knelt down on one knee very naturally, and kissed the back of Ella's hand: "Missing your coming-of-age ceremony is a lifelong regret of mine."
