In the reception room, everyone was angered by Jin Ximin's unreasonable behavior. Zheng Chengdao clenched his fists, cursing in rare anger, "You motherfucker..."
What was this wishful thinking? Even if a deal couldn't be made, there was still goodwill. This American lackey, this little kimchi, acting so arrogant and presumptuous just because he was a team leader, utterly disregarded them.
"Shut up!"
Qin Chuan shot Zheng Chengdao a cold glare. After taking a deep breath, he said to everyone, "Let's go!"
"Boss..."
Seeing Qin Chuan seemingly yielding to a petty team leader, many were confused, filled with frustration and anger.
Elisa also looked at Qin Chuan in surprise. She knew him well; he was far from as harmless as he appeared. Back in America, he had been incredibly violent and ruthless, exuding a masculine dominance from his core.
It was precisely this trait that deeply attracted Elisa, leading her to fall head over heels.
But why was he so easily conceding to a mere team leader now...
However, Qin Chuan had already led the way. It wouldn't do for them to stay, so they could only follow him out with unexpressed resentment.
Jin Ximin watched the group of Chinese people retreat dejectedly, a deep mockery in his eyes.
Just as Chinese people had their impressions of Korea, Koreans didn't have much goodwill towards Chinese people. As long as it was within their power, making things difficult for them to the maximum extent was a source of pleasure.
Jin Ximin even specifically followed the Chinese group downstairs and instructed the security guards at the entrance that this group was henceforth forbidden from entering the company.
Samsung Electronics was not a place any Tom, Dick, or Harry could just walk into.
This remark was overheard by two members of the procurement department standing next to Qin Chuan. They immediately translated it angrily to Qin Chuan. Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned red with anger, gnashing their teeth at the man named Jin Ximin, cursing him incessantly. It was a classic case of a big company bullying customers.
Only Qin Chuan's expression remained as calm as ever. After everyone had vented their emotions for a while, he spoke to comfort them.
"Boss, what do we do now? We're really unwilling to give up just like this!"
They had traveled so far abroad, yet they hadn't even met the real top brass of Samsung Electronics. Their mission had failed before it even properly began, and leaving like this felt incredibly stifling and unwilling.
"Who said I was giving up?"
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'The King of Hell is easy to appease, but difficult to deal with the minor devils'?"
Qin Chuan said with a smile, patiently comforting everyone.
"A mere team leader, do you think we need to argue with such a minor character and have the entire upper management of Samsung Electronics blacklist us?"
Everyone was taken aback, then suddenly enlightened, their admiration for Qin Chuan reaching its peak.
Among the group, Qin Chuan was actually the youngest. However, his disposition and vision were truly far beyond everyone else's. This was perhaps the biggest reason why Qin Chuan, at such a young age, had become such a wealthy boss.
Yes, their boss was absolutely right. There was no need to argue with a mere team leader; it would only bring disadvantages and no benefits, a loss outweighing the gain.
"Then what do you plan to do?"
Elisa's beautiful eyes were fixed on Qin Chuan.
Her Chinese was now very fluent, and daily communication was no problem.
Qin Chuan glanced at everyone and said, "Brother Dao and one translator will stay. The rest of you can go and explore the city of Daegu. It's everyone's first time here, so relax and enjoy yourselves."
"Boss, how can we do that? Absolutely not!"
Everyone was startled and waved their hands in refusal.
What a joke! The boss was working under the scorching sun, and the subordinates were going to play? Did they still want to work here? Which subordinate would dare to do such a thing?
"Boss, did you say that backwards?"
Someone mustered the courage to joke.
Seeing that no one was willing to leave, Qin Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Since everyone chooses to stay, then we'll all wait here together!"
"Today, I will take this opportunity to give everyone a lesson. This lesson is called 'The Resilience of a Businessman'!"
"I must see the true high-level management of Samsung Electronics."
Upon hearing this, everyone pondered silently. The phrase "The Resilience of a Businessman" still left them in a fog, understanding it yet not fully grasping it.
When they came, everyone had done their homework.
They had already gathered a lot of information about Samsung Electronics, knowing that the current head of Samsung Electronics was named Lee Bin-gao, the younger brother of Samsung Group Chairman Lee Seung-hyeok.
Within Samsung Electronics, various senior executives were all direct descendants of the Lee family. Qin Chuan paid special attention to two of them.
One was named Lee Cong-rui, the son of Lee Bin-gao, who currently served as a Senior Director at Samsung Electronics and wielded significant power.
The other was named Lee Yeon-hee, the daughter of Samsung Group Chairman Lee Seung-hyeok, the true Samsung princess. She currently held the position of Minister of the Foreign Trade Department at Samsung Electronics and was only twenty-three years old.
If they could connect with either of these two, this business deal would be almost guaranteed. There was no need to deal with other demons and ghosts.
And so, they waited for the entire morning.
Under the scorching sun, the sunlight was intense. Even hiding under the shade of a large tree, they were covered in sweat.
Everyone was suffering miserably. Especially at the entrance of Samsung Electronics, where many people entered and exited, from all over the world. Seeing so many people standing under the hot sun, they had to endure strange looks and pointing fingers every time.
The psychological torment was more venomous than the sun.
Finally, it was time for lunch break, and many Samsung Electronics employees came out, some for errands, some for lunch, and so on.
Upon spotting them, they started whispering and discussing amongst themselves, making everyone feel like they were being paraded in a zoo, which was even more unbearable.
Among them was the team leader named Jin Ximin. With a sneer, he approached Qin Chuan's group and mocked, "Still here?"
"Do you really think that by standing here and showing a bit of mere perseverance, you'll receive favor? That's a pipe dream!"
"My Samsung Group won't casually bestow favors upon people like you, haha!"
With that, he burst into laughter and strode away, making them furious.
"Qin Chuan, I'm hungry. Why don't we go grab something to eat first?"
Elisa was the first to be unable to stand this humiliation. In her entire life, she had never experienced anything like this.
"Everyone, go eat. Just pack a lunch box for me later," Qin Chuan said.
Although everyone hesitated, they eventually chose to leave, leaving only Zheng Chengdao behind.
Qin Chuan glanced at Zheng Chengdao, who grinned. Neither of them spoke, but there was a tacit understanding between them as they continued to squat under the shade of the big tree, smoking cigarettes.
Unknowingly, lunchtime slipped away. Qin Chuan did not wait for the people he had expected. After a simple meal of packed lunch boxes, he continued to wait.
The sun gradually set in the west, and dusk began to fall, signaling the end of the day.
It was also time for all Samsung Electronics employees to leave work. A dense crowd poured out of the building entrance, like a flock of sheep.
Seeing Qin Chuan's group still waiting under the large willow tree outside, their gazes were varied, pointing and whispering incessantly.
This made everyone experience the feeling of extreme social embarrassment once more.
However, Qin Chuan's eyes were sharp and grew brighter, his focus particularly on those driving away in cars.
Especially the luxury cars were his primary focus.
But as the expectations grew, so did the disappointment. This time, he still did not see the target he had in mind...
