Chapter 1459 A Dilemma (2/2)
The huge meeting room soon became empty, and Harlan was overcome with concern. He looked at the smile on Darren's face. He hesitated to talk for a long time, but he couldn't help himself from asking, ”Mr. Darren, can we really do this?”
Darren casually took the contract in front of him and grabbed a pen to sign it. But before he did, he lowered his head and asked, ”What's wrong?”
Harlan gave him a bitter smile and replied, ”The price of that factory is 5% higher than the market pri
versation.”
Darren still maintained his composure, but his eyes grew dim and nonchalant. Everyone could feel the uncomfortable atmosphere that surrounded them.
”Mr. Wang, the KING Group is not just a lousy company. We are renowned in the business world. I don't think you should underestimate the potential profits if you chose to cooperate with us. So, Mr. Wang, do you really insist on your request for a meager increase, or do you want to consider choosing a different plan for the future?”
Darren's suggestion was not only a threat, but also a way to tempt the man. All businessmen valued making profit more than anything. Naturally, Mr. Wang should be able to get the gist of Darren's words.
However, contrary to Darren's expectation, Mr. Wang wasn't a single bit tempted by his offer. The man simply smiled at Darren and said, ”Mr. Xu, I've already told you my price. If you agree to my request, we can sign the contract now. If you don't, I don't think we should be wasting our time here anymore.”
A look of despair came to Darren's face. He was in quite a dilemma. If he rejected the offer, it would be another blow on top of their problem regarding the HT Group. But if he agreed, it wouldn't help the KING Group's progress.
Harlan wanted to chime in, but ultimately decided to stay quiet on second thought. He knew that whatever he said would be pointless. Only Darren could save them now.
A long period of silence ensued, causing both parties to feel awkward.
Suddenly, Darren sneered and looked at Mr. Wang without any expression in his eyes. He then said, ”Then, wish us a pleasant partnership in advance.”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wang immediately understood what Darren meant. He stood up and was about to shake hands with him.
But suddenly, Darren turned a blind eye and asked Harlan to draw up a new contract.
