Zhou Ming walked out of the coffee shop, looked up at the blue sky, let out a long breath, and the bodyguard** went to drive the car up to Zhou Ming and opened the door for him. But when Zhou Ming got in the car and **was about to start the car, suddenly a car covered in cellophane rushed out and blocked in front of their car. The window rolled down to reveal a familiar face, and it was Walden.
With a provocative look, Wharton looked at Zhou Ming and said, 'Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhou Ming? I didn't expect to run into you here today. What brings you to this coffee shop? How is Wharton's company doing now? Is it going to come to a standstill without me? I can tell you, I just negotiated an advertisement, a very big one!'
'Mr. Wharton, I don't understand why you negotiated an advertisement and what that has to do with me. Don't you think it's very strange that you came to me specifically to tell me this?' Zhou Ming said.
Wharton shook his head and laughed, 'I don't think so. I think it's a greater thing than helping African children, because I can see your face full of failure and pain. That feeling is wonderful!'
'Really? Then I'm afraid I have to disappoint you, because I've just negotiated my commercial, which will be broadcast on Brighton City TV. Through this commercial, I believe that Wharton Insurance Company can also use this product to reach new heights. Now, Mr Wharton, I also have to go back and share this good news with my classmates. Goodbye.'
After saying this, Zhou Ming rolled down the window and then, at Zhou Ming's instruction, ** directly started the car, did not back up, made a U-turn, hit open Wharton's car and then drove off.
'Oh my god, this Zhou Ming is the devil, the worst asshole in the world!'
Wharton adjusted the steering wheel of the car while cursing inside the car, but then he burst out laughing, cheering while laughing, 'What a lucky day today, I got to see that Chinese guy's miserable expression. You think you can fool me? If you really had a deal, would you still be looking like that? I can see that you are definitely not going to have a happy ending!'
After laughing for a while, Walton started the car and followed Zhou Ming's car. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Brooke's number. He said, 'Mr. Brooke, this is Walton. I am now in front of the coffee shop in downtown Brighton. I followed Zhou Ming here and found that he had an appointment with the person in charge of the advertising centre of Brighton City TV station to discuss something. It must be about the insurance company's advertisement...'
'Are you asking the right question, Mr. Brook?' said Walton. 'I just met with Zhou Ming to make sure I was on the right track. I could see the look of utter frustration on his face, so I think their business deal must have fallen through!'
'Don't worry, Mr. Brook, I've been very careful. The Chinese guy won't know I've been following him. I'll keep you updated if anything else happens.'
Warden hung up the phone, threw the phone aside, and looked at Zhou Ming's car in front of him, grinning evilly. 'I really want to see your expression of annoyance and collapse soon! I'll tell you, I'm not someone to be messed with, and my company is not something you can just take away. You Chinese people deserve to be bullied by me, and your money should be given to me directly. Still trying to resist? You're just looking for trouble!'
...
Zhou Ming returned to the dormitory and found Chen Shu and Ye Ning waiting for him. Upon seeing Zhou Ming return, they all stood up like they had been sitting on springs. They all looked at Zhou Ming, their eyes full of confusion and tension.
Zhou Ming of course knew what they were all expecting. In fact, it was because of today's meeting with Wilson that they had not gone out to promote insurance and were waiting here. So Zhou Ming didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, 'Today I can happily tell everyone that Mr Wilson from Brighton TV has agreed to my request and agreed to broadcast our advertisement!'
With this sentence from Zhou Ming, everyone cheered at once. Although it was just an advertisement, it was a miraculous advertisement. It was another miracle that Zhou Ming had brought to them at their most difficult time, all on his own!
Of course, some people had some doubts. Shu Chen and Ye Ning came forward and asked Zhou Ming, 'Teacher, did you really convince Mr. Wilson?'
'Of course, I wouldn't joke about this. Anyway, the advertisement from the Nam Advertising Agency will be ready soon, so we'll just watch it on TV then, the day after tomorrow at the latest,' said Zhou Ming.
Chen Shu and Ye Ning nodded doubtfully, and then Zhou Ming said to them, 'But I won't be going out for the next two days. Regarding the advertisement, Chen Shu and Ye Ning, you two go help handle it. Although Wilson has already agreed, after all, the contract has not been signed yet. You go sign the contract at that time, and bring along Lawyer Allen.'
'But shouldn't you, Teacher, be the one to sign the contract?' Chen Shu asked curiously.
'It should be me who does it, but are you going to never sign the contract?' Zhou Ming asked in return.
Chen Shu and Ye Ning lowered their heads at Zhou Ming's words, and Ye Ning said to Zhou Ming, "Teacher, I understand. Please rest assured, Chen Shu and I will definitely sign the contract.'
Zhou Ming nodded and said, "That's good. At that time, you bring your mobile phones with you. If anything unexpected happens, call me immediately.'
In order to facilitate communication, after the convenience store in the dormitory opened, Zhou Ming gave the finance class a few extra mobile phones, which were kept by several class representatives. However, Zhou Ming's plan was to give each member of the finance class a mobile phone.
In the face of Zhou Ming's words, Chen Shu and Ye Ning both nodded in agreement. After getting their answers, Zhou Ming left the hall and went upstairs to his room. Looking at Zhou Ming's departing back, Chen Shu asked Ye Ning with some concern, 'What do you think is wrong with the teacher? Why does he want us to sign this contract? Could there be a problem with the contract?'
Ye Ning frowned, sensing that Chen Shu was hiding something. 'Class monitor, what do you mean by that?'
Chen Shu shook his head and guessed, 'I don't mean anything, it's just that the teacher's behaviour is really strange, and the situation is not good right now, do you think the teacher didn't get the deal done...'
As soon as Chen Shu finished speaking, Ye Ning immediately exploded: 'What do you mean by saying that? Are you suspecting that the teacher deliberately threw difficult problems at us so that we would take the blame? Chen Shu, you are the monitor of our finance class, how can you think like that?'
'Chen Shu, have you forgotten what the teacher did to train us? He set up the dormitory convenience store to train our business acumen and spirit of service, and bought the insurance company to train our marketing awareness. He did all this for us!'
Ye Ning said loudly to Chen Shu, 'Have you forgotten that this Wharton Company was funded and bought by the teacher alone? Whether it was setting up the insurance company, or the insurance policies with Harbour City Shipping Group and Senator Old Brook later on, as well as the negotiations with the Nam advertising agency, didn't the teacher do it all by himself? He also gave us all mobile phones. Now the teacher just wants us to sign a contract, and you actually doubt him like this. Are you even human?'
Ye Ning pointed at Chen Shu and said, 'I'll tell you, Chen Shu, don't say that the teacher just wants us to sign a contract. Even if the teacher really did dump this on us, we have to help him carry it. We can't always ask the teacher to help us, we have to help the teacher too!'
Ye Ning's words left Chen Shu completely speechless. After a while, he said, 'Ye Ning, I didn't say anything else, I don't doubt the teacher either, and I'm more than willing to believe that the teacher took this contract down, but there are some things that aren't...'
At this point, Chen Shu felt that he could not continue, so he sighed and said, 'Anyway, please believe that I support the teacher very much. I will do whatever the teacher asks me to do. I love him very much, just like my parents, without any regrets, just like you.'
In the end, Chen Shu still asked, 'In fact, you also feel that the teacher did not get it done today, right? Because there is no hope at all, and the teacher does not have any bargaining chips, so he can only beg people.'
Facing Chen Shu's question, Ye Ning's tears flowed immediately...
Two days passed quickly. It was 7 pm on 12 March. In the room on the 12th floor of 365 Charles Avenue, Wharton was still watching the situation in Zhou Ming's dormitory through the binoculars.
Suddenly the phone in Wharton's room rang. Wharton went over to answer it and said, 'Good evening, Mr. Brook. I'm still observing the Chinese student Ming Zhou. I've noticed that he hasn't left the house for two days. It seems he's become a bit depressed. He's also left all the work at Wharton's company to other people. He's really useless...'
Wharton hadn't finished speaking when Brook shouted over the phone, 'You pig, you open the TV and see what's on Brighton TV right now!'
Brook's words made Walton pause for a moment, and a bad feeling suddenly welled up in his heart. He immediately went to get the remote control and turned on the TV in the room. When he tuned to the Brighton channel, he was dumbfounded.
'With Walton Insurance and Wealth Management products, you not only have a life insurance, but also an emotional insurance, because you no longer have to worry about the fluctuations of the stock market. You can rest assured and buy a $7 burger, and you can even rest assured and take your wife and children on a vacation to the Maldives. Remember, Walton is home, and you can rest assured when you are home! The goal of Wharton is the vast sea of finance!
On TV, the Harry couple were saying the advertising slogan. Although Brooke didn't know what kind of advertisement Zhou Ming had made, he was familiar with the name Wharton Insurance Company. Because of this, he couldn't understand: how come? Didn't Zhou Ming have a falling out with Wilson? How come his product was advertised on TV?
'This doesn't make sense!' Walden muttered.
Over there, Brooke immediately roared at Walden's words, 'Of course it doesn't make sense. Didn't you tell me that Zhou Ming was finished and that he didn't negotiate the advertisement well? Then what is this? I just had someone check, and Zhou Ming signed a contract with the TV station a day ago. How the hell did you observe this?'
Old Brook's words were like a bolt of thunder that slammed down on Wharton's head, leaving him speechless for a moment. The only question that echoed in his mind was: why? Why on earth was this happening? Did Zhou Ming convince Wilson? This was impossible!
