Chapter 100: The Gatwa with the Big Mouth
"I've never believed in such magical things!"
The voice of Kalam, the candidate from India, was so loud that everyone around him could hear it very clearly: "It was just magic. It's just a little trick. ”
His voice was so loud that Lei Huanxi was also attracted by curiosity.
Kalam glanced at him, and his voice became a little louder: "Magic tricks like this, what drives fish, etc., even my cooks can." ”
What?
Are you talking about your family Brother Huanxi or something?
"Brother Huanxi, this guy is talking about you. Anne came to Ray Huanxi's side with a look of indignation: "Just now someone happened to talk about your performance in Miami, but I don't know which nerve this guy touched, and he has been attacking you without naming you." ”
Hey, that's weird, I haven't offended him, have I?
Brother Huanxi really doesn't understand it.
Karam was still chattering there, to the effect that Lei Huanxi's performance was not worth mentioning, and if it was there to deceive.
Of course, Lei Huan is the global honorary ambassador of the International Ocean Association, and Kalam did not name him.
But as long as someone with a normal mind hears it, he will know who he is talking about.
Some of the people listening to the side were as indignant as Anne, while others were gloating.
The more Kalam spoke, the more energetic he became, as if the main purpose of his visit today was to fight Lei Huanxi.
Zhu Jinyan was also attracted to it.
Seeing that Anne was about to go crazy, Lei Huanxi grabbed her and shook his head at her slightly.
Why be angry with this kind of person, his mouth grows on his body, and whatever he likes to say is his freedom.
"I'm sorry. Snowpan said apologetically, "Mr. Kalam comes from a traditionally upper-class Gatwa family in India, and he has a nickname. It's called 'Gatwa of Justice', because in many parts of India, disputes are not resolved by law, but by local leaders who decide who is right and who is wrong. Karam came from a law background, so he is very comfortable with these disputes. But he is also better known by the nickname 'Galava the Big Mouth'. ”
Lei Huanxi and Anne quickly threw their unhappiness out of the clouds. Listen to Snowpan as he continues:
"He often said something jaw-dropping, such as you know that there are many vicious cases against women in India, and he once publicly said that women should stay at home, and if they come out after dark, then they deserve what they have suffered. And this remark also caused an uproar at the time. But to this day, Mr. Kalam has no intention of apologizing. ”
Anne, who was originally a girl, was furious when she heard this: "I should really let his family taste this taste." ”
"He didn't go to World Oceans Festival because he had something important to do, and when he heard that you had become an Honorary Global Ambassador for the International Ocean Association. Seems to be quite dissatisfied with you. ”
Snowpan finally said the grievance:
"It is said that on various occasions he said that you were just a magician. Because he is also an ocean enthusiast himself, and he will hopefully achieve good results if he races. ”
Okay, okay, Brother Huanxi completely understood.
Isn't it just that you didn't have time to participate, and you need to be so angry?
But somehow it's not a good thing to have an extra enemy, how steep it is......
……
"Mr. Adrien, why are you here?"
When he saw Adrien appear at the banquet, Zhu Jinyan was still a little surprised.
"I'm here to introduce you to a friend. Adrien smiled, and then did something that surprised Zhu Jinyan.
He actually hugged Mr. Calam hard!
Did they already know each other?
"Come on. Let me introduce you to you. Only then did Adrien say, "This is your competitor, Mr. Zhu Jinyan, and this Mr. Kalam." It's an old friend of mine. He's known in his hometown as 'Gatwa of Justice,' and of course he has a nickname, 'Gatwa with a big mouth,' isn't he, my old friend?"
Karam laughed: "That's some poor and ignorant people slandering me. Aha, Mr. Zhu Jinyan. You've become my competitor, and I think you're in trouble. ”
Zhu Jinyan smiled.
He was sure that since Calam was an old friend of Adrien's, it would never be that simple.
Sure enough, Adrien quickly said, "My dear friend, how have you considered what I have discussed with you?"
"What do I ask?" Calam blinked slyly, "my dear friend. You have to agree to my terms before we can mention anything else. ”
Adrien looked a little helpless: "You are such a cunning fellow. Well, my partner and I have decided to meet your request, and I will now hand over the management of Port Reedland to you. ”
What does it mean to have the right to operate Port Ridland? Zhu Jinyan was confused.
"Look, what a day. Karam continued to ask: "So when will the contract be signed?"
Adrien was even more helpless: "If you want, you can officially sign it tomorrow morning." ”
"Aha, my think tank came to Yundong with me this time. Kalam was not slacking off at all: "Then let's choose tomorrow morning." ”
"What about your promise, honorable Mr. Calam?"
"I solemnly promise. Kalam's expression became serious: "Once the contract is signed, I will withdraw from this election, and all the votes I have obtained will be transferred to my most sincere friends!"
He patted Adrien the shoulder.
Zhu Jinyan completely understood.
The interest group represented by Adrien sacrificed Port Reedland in favor of Kalam's support!
"Thank you, my friend. Adrien nodded with satisfaction: "We will build a strong and invincible alliance. There's nothing more enjoyable than getting your commitment. Relax, my friend, tomorrow you will get everything you want!"
"And you'll get everything you want!" Karam left with a smile.
"Mr. Adrien, when did you start doing this?" Zhu Jinyan asked.
"A long, long time ago. Adrien looked relieved: "We have to get all the support possible, and the large number of votes centered on India, represented by the Gatwa family, is very important." Coincidentally, Kalam was very unhappy with Ray's appointment as the IOA Global Honorary Ambassador, which gave us an opportunity. Of course, if you want to gain his support, you have to pay a price. ”
The management of the port of Reedland has always been in the hands of the interests represented by Adrian, and the Gatwa family has long coveted the operation of the port.
They knew that Karam's chances of becoming the Inspector General of Asia were not particularly good, so they offered the temptation to abandon the candidacy in order to gain the right to run the Port of Reedland.
After urgent deliberation and an assessment of the implications for the future, the Diamond Alliance finally agreed to the Gatwa family's request and won their support!
"Thank you so much, Mr. Adrien. Zhu Jinyan was really grateful this time: "You have done so many things for me, but Kalam is just a verbal promise, and there is no written guarantee?"
"My friend, how can such a thing come in the form of a written guarantee?" Ardrien smiled, "And what you may not know is that in Kalam's hometown, they value promises far more than any written guarantees. There is such a proverb in their local area. ”
"The words of man mean that the gods of heaven are watching you!"
"A business contract is a business contract, and the Ghatwa family, as a traditional Indian family, values their commitments the most. Adrien smiled and said, "So we can rest assured now, your odds are already good." ”
Zhu Jinyan was completely relieved.
It's really a blessing to have the support of a big group.
"Hey, Jiang Shengli is here. At this time, Zhu Jinyan saw Jiang Shengli walking in, and immediately greeted him: "Mr. Jiang, hello, why did you come here?"
"I am also a member of the International Ocean Association. Jiang Shengli smiled: "I also received today's invitation." ”
"Ah, I almost forgot. Zhu Jinyan patted his head: "Are you okay in the last few days?"
"Not so good. Jiang Shengli sighed: "The voices against me in the board of directors have begun to appear again, Zhu Gongzi, I think all this is arranged by you and Mr. Adrien, right?"
Zhu Jinyan did not admit or deny it:
"Mr. Jiang, in fact, it is normal for some discordant voices to appear in the company. But I want you to believe that if you make the right choice, all the discordant voices will naturally disappear without a trace. “
Of course, Jiang Shengli knows what is the most correct choice:
That is to vote for Zhu Jinyan.
Then Zhu Jinyan will give him a chance to breathe, at least he will not be attacked everywhere like now, and even his former closest comrades-in-arms have betrayed him.
It's a really bad taste.
"Mr. Jiang. Adrien also decided to strike while the iron was hot: "Choice, a person's choice is very important, how to make the most correct choice? Maybe in this case, even after the expiration of the VAM agreement between us, you will have a buffer period, maybe you can also get new financial support, from our financial support." ”
"I know, I know, I know what I'm up against, and I know what I'm going to do. Jiang Shengli sighed deeply:
"So I'll make the right choice!" (To be continued.) )
