Li Jianjun, hearing the busy tone on the phone, frowned slightly and felt somewhat displeased.


    The price of eighty million was already not low, but truthfully, it wasn''t too high either.


    As long as Qin Hao kept up at this level, he believed there would be others willing to pay a higher price to poach him.


    For instance, on streaming platforms for chat apps, such highly popular players could attract a lot of traffic.


    In the past, officials from chat apps had offered over a hundred million to buy a popular professional player.


    For someone like Qin Hao, there was a strong possibility they would make a move to acquire him.


    Of course, buying Qin Hao for the streaming platform merely meant signing a contract to have him stream on the chat app platform, not a team contract.


    Qin Hao hanging up his phone was not only because of Xia Qing''s matter, but also due to the tone of Li Jianjun''s speech.


    He was somewhat put off by Li Jianjun''s tone, which was arrogant, superior, and as if he had everything under control.


    Li Jianjun himself might not have even realized it.


    It was the influence of his upbringing since childhood; whether it was his tone of speech or demeanor, they were not like ordinary people''s.


    Moreover, such people have their own circles that are difficult for ordinary people to break into.


    After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao lay down on his bed and went to sleep.


    That night, he didn''t sleep well, having many fragmented dreams that he couldn''t even clearly recall.


    Around nine in the morning, he finally got up, washed up, and had a quick bite to eat.


    Right after breakfast, he received a call from Kang Youyi, "Mr. Qin, Mr. Bai from Jiu Chang Group has come and would like to talk to you."


    Qin Hao was curious, What does Jiu Chang Group want with me?@@@@


    He replied, "Okay, I''ll be right over."


    After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao left the complex and took a taxi to Shenghua Building.


    About ten minutes later, Qin Hao arrived at Shenghua Building, got out of the car, and walked into the building.


    Taking the elevator to the company, the two female receptionists at the front desk hurriedly greeted him when they saw him, "Good morning, Mr. Qin."


    Qin Hao smiled and nodded his head, then asked, "Where are the people from Jiu Chang Group?"


    The female receptionist replied, "Mr. Qin, Mr. Bai from Jiu Chang Group is waiting for you in your office, Mr. Kang is with him."


    "Uh-huh," Qin Hao walked into his office.


    Inside the office, Kang Youyi was chatting with a sophisticated and charming woman.


    Bai Jing didn''t have much hope for this visit, as business cooperation rarely succeeds on the first attempt.


    Now, at least, she had successfully taken the first step by leaving a good impression on Qin Hao.


    After chatting a bit more, Bai Jing took her leave.


    Not long after Bai Jing had left, there was a knock on the door as Qin Hao sat in his office.


    "Come in."


    The receptionist led a group of people inside, "Mr. Qin, this is Meng Hui, the vice president of Zhengyuan Company."


    Qin Hao nodded slightly, "You can go now."


    Meng Hui brought five people with him, including a female secretary and some subordinates.


    When he first entered, he glanced around Qin Hao''s office, a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes.


    Upon seeing Qin Hao, he held him in even lower regard.


    Just a milk-nosed brat, a little show of my aura, and he''d probably be intimidated by me.


    Thinking this, he slouched arrogantly on the sofa, as if he were in his own home.


    Seeing this, Qin Hao slightly furrowed his brows, "May I know what brings Vice President Meng to my company?"


    Meng Hui said with a smile, "I''m here to tell you some good news."


    Good news?


    Qin Hao was a bit surprised. He didn''t know him, did he? What good news could this person possibly have for me?


    "Mr. Meng, please speak your mind."


    Meng Hui: "Alright, our company plans to acquire your Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company, and I believe you will be very satisfied with the price, ten million.


    Such a young fellow and already a millionaire; this would surely make many people jealous if word got out."


    Qin Hao nearly choked, ten million? Are you kidding me?


    Zhengyuan Group originally planned to offer thirty million, but Meng Hui felt he could secure it for ten million, so he pitched that amount.


    Qin Hao sneered, "Mr. Meng, are you joking? Ten million for my company?


    Do you know the value of just those stores, not to mention the secret recipe of my Jiangshan Roasted Duck?"


    Meng Hui said with a smile, "The price is negotiable, how about fifteen million?"


    Qin Hao''s expression cooled, "Mr. Meng, I don''t have time to play here with you. If you have nothing else, please leave, I have other matters to attend to."
