Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Setting a Trap Together

The statements of the two translators are consistent, and Director Chen believes it for the most part. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Even if he understands Hua Xia, what good is it except for us to be careful about what we say tomorrow?"

After Director Chen finished speaking, Jiang Cheng smiled with a hint of cunning.

"But he doesn’t know that we know he understands."

Everyone present understood this tongue-twister of a sentence and had some thoughts in mind.

"Create something out of nothing, move east while striking west, let’s play the Thirty-Six Stratagems!"

"When it comes to strategy, who can beat us Hua Xia?"

Jiang Cheng’s question set everyone’s hearts ablaze.

That’s right!

Let’s play!

Director Chen was tempted too, but as a director, he had too much to consider.

"Bang bang bang"

The urgent knocking on the door sounded, and the people outside rushed in heedlessly.

"Director!"

"Those Japanese guys harassed the hotel waitress!"

Director Chen swore.

"Damn!"

Director Chen, with Jiang Cheng, went to handle the Japanese’s issues first.

The Japanese claimed they were drunk and mistakenly took the waitress for their wife.

On the Hua Xia side, they couldn’t say anything, and had to publicly accept the apology while privately comforting the waitress.

The waitress could only silently swallow her resentment.

After handling the matter, Director Chen returned with a murderous aura.

It’s still that office, still those people, but the atmosphere was different.

"Jiang Cheng, do you have any thoughts? Share them!"

"Alright!"

The next day, the Japanese wanted to continue their visit.

The Hua Xia side naturally accepted, but the tour route was decided by them.

After breakfast, the Japanese returned to the machinery factory to continue their visit.

An hour later, the leader who understood Hua Xia felt a bit unwell.

Jiang Cheng approached with concern.

"Is it acclimatization? It must be, everyone else is fine."

Jiang Cheng’s words dismissed the leader’s attempt to blame the Hua Xia side.

No blame could be placed!

The leader wanted to use the restroom, and Jiang Cheng accompanied him with another male colleague.

Another interpreter with an IV stayed with the remaining Japanese.

As Jiang Cheng and the two others passed by an office, voices could be heard inside.

"Why aren’t those Japanese leaving yet?"

"Who knows! We can’t just chase them out."

"Did the opposing party really place an order?"

"Of course! They said the order is urgent, claiming a major domestic group wants to purchase these vehicles, whoever produces them first will be formidable!"

"No wonder they’re in a hurry, pushing us to speed up."

"Exactly, those Japanese should probably leave today."

The Japanese leader outside heard everything clearly. He stole a glance at Jiang Cheng, feigning indifference while asking, "What are they talking about?"

Jiang Cheng maintained his expression.

"They’re discussing a very good movie, do you like watching movies?"

Jiang Cheng changed the topic, and the Japanese’s expression darkened a bit.

He quickly went to the restroom, and upon exiting, saw Jiang Cheng and the two people from earlier discussing something intensely.

The Japanese hurriedly hid and tried to listen hard.

"You two better watch your mouth, you almost gave us away!"

"If they find out we never intended to sign their order, what would happen!"

"This is related information from S City Machinery Factory, which completely meets your production capability requirements. You might consider outsourcing to them."

The Japanese leader realized they were trying to pass them off.

They surely couldn’t complete the order.

If that’s the case, he certainly couldn’t leave.

"No! We only wish to produce here."

Jiang Cheng translated, and Director Chen displayed a difficult expression, saying, "Tell them our prices are high, I refuse to believe they’d accept at such high prices!"

Jiang Cheng nodded and translated.

After hearing Director Chen’s words, the Japanese displayed indifference, saying, "It’s okay, as long as the quality is up to standard and it’s completed within the designated time, we don’t mind the price."

As soon as he finished, several Japanese immediately expressed doubts.

"Chi Lang, the price we discussed isn’t this, it’s too expensive! We could end up losing profits."

The leader Chi Lang sternly said, "I’ll take full responsibility if anything goes wrong. You just need to obey."

The other Japanese fell silent.

On Jiang Cheng’s side, Director Chen was also conferring with others.

"Director, it’s not feasible! The price isn’t even as much as the other’s offer."

"Yeah, the key is we can’t complete it."

"Tell them we won’t take small orders; they’ll realize it’s futile."

"Right, right!"

The Hua Xia side discussed while Jiang Cheng beautified the translation.

The Japanese leader, Chi Lang, listening to the Hua Xia people, felt more assured of his plan.

It seems this time, they’ll certainly get the parts for free!

These foolish Hua Xia people!

Chi Lang again agreed to Director Chen’s demands, increased the quantity, keeping the price just as high.

"Director Chen, do you not wish to cooperate with us?"

Chi Lang directly applied pressure using the two countries’ relations, and under Chi Lang’s intimidation, Director Chen’s hands trembled as he signed the contract.

Director Chen: Our machinery factory hit the jackpot!!
