Chapter 17
As Donald and Ronald spoke, many others also started to speak.
"President Lin, it's time to make a decision."
"This liar should have been removed a long time ago."
"President Lin, you-"
Amidst the chaos, Quin was leafing through the thin sheaf of documents and reading them carefully.
After reading them, Quin put the papers down and looked at Fade with surprise and excitement. She asked, "Is... is this true?"
Fade understood what she was asking. He nodded and said, "Of course it's true."
"Great, great. I didn't expect you to really succeed." Quin, who had always been calm, jumped up excitedly at this moment and gave Fade a big hug in public.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Especially Donald, his face darkening by the moment. "President Lin, you-"
Quin didn't realize what was going on until she heard Donald. She quickly let go of Fade, adjusted her hair, and covered her blushing cheeks.
She looked around the confused crowd and said, "I was a little out of place just now, but it's good news -Dr. Chen succeeded in signing a contract with Xu Chemicals."
Quin's words caused an uproar.
"What? The contract is real? That's impossible!"
"President Lin, did you make a mistake?"
"It's just a few pages. How could it be true?" All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Quin did not explain much and directly passed the contract to all of them. "See for yourself," Quin said.
Their skeptical eyes shifted over and looked at the documents carefully. It was as if they were trying to pick out any suspicious signs in the documents.
However, they found nothing suspicious after searching through them.
Therefore, they could only frown and question it.
"Is this true? No way!"
"Why is the contract so simple? Many terms haven't been explained in detail!"
"Moreover, judging from the contract, Xu Chemicals has actually given us a lot of concessions, and the price is also very cheap. Is it true?"
"Is there something fishy?"
In the face of doubts, Fade didn't explain much. He took out his mobile phone directly, made a video call, and then pointed the camera at everyone.
The video call connected, and a figure appeared. It was no other than the person in charge of Xu Chemicals.
He confirmed the authenticity of the contract in person and then hung up the phone.
Of course, this video call was facilitated under the instructions of Nicholas Xu in cooperation with Fade, so that he could easily prove the authenticity of the contract.
There was no further need to doubt the contract.
All of the people present still found it hard to swallow. They could not believe that a small doctor could successfully close such a difficult deal that they had been struggling to close.
For a moment, the scene was silent and no one made any sound.
Fade glanced at Donald, Ronald, and the others. He said coldly, "Secretary Qin and Deputy Manager Xie. Do you still think my contract is fake?"
Their faces darkened and they did not speak, but their expressions were very ugly.
The atmosphere was a little tense. At this moment, Quin clapped her hands and said to Donald, "Doctor Chen's contract has been signed successfully. Secretary Qin, how's your contract going?"
Upon hearing this, Donald shivered and immediately came to his senses. He said in a hurry, "President Lin, I have successfully signed Pai's Chemical's contract. This is the corresponding contract, among which, the related terms..."
Then, Donald presented and explained his contract.
Needless to say, Donald's contract was authentic and no one doubted it.
After the two had presented their contracts, Quin placed the two documents in front of them, she looked at them, and then said, "In terms of the results, both of you have signed contracts successfully. However, the Xu Chemicals contract that Dr. Chen signed has better terms for our company. Therefore, we decide to proceed with the Xu Chemicals contract. This time, Dr. Chen wins."
No one was surprised by this result.
After all, the Pai's Chemicals contract and the Xu Chemicals contract were not at the same level at all.
Everyone fell silent, and Donald was extremely nervous. If he loses the bet, he would have to leave Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, and he really did not want to.
But he was helpless. After all, it was impossible for Pai's Chemicals to surpass Xu Chemicals.
Just as Donald grew anxious, Ronald suddenly said, "Since both of them have successfully signed contracts, we can't simply announce that Dr. Chen won, can we?"
As soon as he said this, Donald immediately aroused from his nervous stupor, his face changed. He immediately said, "Yes, President Lin, that’s true."
"Although Xu Chemicals is better than Pai's Chemicals, with this contract, I have gained a lot of concessions for the company. From the aspects of price, supply chain, client considerations, and others, the Pai's Chemicals contract that I signed is better than Xu Chemicals contract." Donald said.
"Yes, what Secretary Qin says is true. The two contracts have their own advantages. You can't say that Fade won completely."
"Xu Chemicals has a good reputation, but their prices are too high. Our company may not be able to afford them!"
"To some extent, I think Pai's Chemicals is more suitable for Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc."
Many executives began to speak for Donald.
Such a situation made Quin frown. In reality, everyone knew that Xu Chemicals was far superior to Pai's Chemicals. They were not at the same level at all. The so- called advantages of the price of Pai's Chemicals were not even worth mentioning in the face of the quality gap between them.
But now, Donald, Ronald, and other people clung on to the rationale that each contract had its own advantages and disadvantages. Obviously, they didn't want to admit to the results of the bet.
Quin frowned.
Fade, on the other hand, remained calm. He was not nervous at all. He even looked at Donald with a smile on his mouth and said, "According to Secretary Qin's meaning, this bet should be a draw?"
"Yes, each has its own pros and cons, and there's no clear winner. So, naturally, it's a draw." Donald stiffened his neck and said.
"Really?" Fade narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "It seems that Secretary Qin didn't say so when we had a meeting three days ago. Instead, you said that Xu Chemicals is at a completely higher level. As long as we can sign their contract, we win."
Donald's face changed, and then he explained, "That's just a statement. I mean, Xu Chemicals' quality is good, but if the price is too high, it may not be suitable for us."
"Yes, business matters don’t only depend on quality, but also on price!"
"Mr. Chen, you are a doctor, and you don't know anything about business. In this regard, you'd better not compete with Secretary Qin." The other management executives said.
