After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

The phone call Yan Jin made was like a key that unlocked the deadlock. She contacted Professor Lin, a well-known expert in cross-border mergers and acquisitions. The next morning, Professor Lin brought his team to Xiang Group and started working intensively with Xiang Yu and Yan Jin to formulate a plan.

"Knowing yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger." This is a sentence that Professor Lin often says. He believes that in order to break the deadlock, you must first understand the other party's culture and business habits, find the common ground between the two sides, and then develop a cooperation plan that truly meets the interests of both parties.

Therefore, in the next few days, Xiang Yu and Yan Jin changed their previous anxiety and immersed themselves in learning about foreign cultures and analyzing business cases. They carefully read the business reports of the country where Jack's company was located, studied their negotiation style and corporate culture, and even learned some local etiquette and customs.

"It seems that we all underestimated Jack." Xiang Yu was dazzled by the thick information. He rubbed his brows and said with emotion, "Their company may seem young, but it has ambitions and strength that cannot be underestimated."

Yan Jin nodded, with admiration in her eyes. "Moreover, they are very good at using cultural differences to gain benefits for themselves. We only thought about how to stick to the bottom line, but ignored the possibility of finding a win-win situation."

Under the guidance of Professor Lin, combined with their in-depth understanding of each other and their own advantages, Xiang Yu and Yan Jin gradually perfected a new cooperation plan. This plan is no longer bound by the previous terms, but boldly incorporates the cultural elements and business models of both parties, striving to achieve a win-win situation in cooperation.

A week later, Jack and Emily came to Xiang Group again. This time, facing the new plan proposed by Xiang Yu and Yan Jin, the surprised expressions on their faces said it all.

"This is indeed a very creative plan." Jack studied the plan carefully, with a hint of subtle appreciation in his tone. "Your understanding of our culture and business model is impressive."

"Of course, we also hope that this plan can bring greater benefits to both parties." Xiang Yu's tone was calm, but full of confidence.

Emily closed the file and looked at Yan Jin with a scrutinizing look in her eyes: "Boss Yan, I have to say that this plan is indeed very attractive, but it also has some risks. We need more time to evaluate it."

"Of course, this is your right." Yan Jin smiled slightly and made a "please" gesture, "We still have coffee and tea, let's chat slowly."

Outside the window, the morning light was just breaking through, and a ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and sprinkled on the earth. However, the atmosphere in the conference room became subtle again with Emily's last words...

The aroma of coffee filled the conference room, but it couldn't cover up the tense atmosphere in the air. The beam of the projector hit the screen, clearly showing the details of the new plan. Every number and every clause had been repeatedly scrutinized and demonstrated by both teams.

Jack sometimes frowned in thought, sometimes whispered to Emily, and asked sharp questions from time to time, trying to find loopholes in the plan and gain greater benefits for his side. Xiang Yu was calm and answered fluently, using his professional knowledge and keen business sense to resolve the other party's doubts one by one, and put forward new suggestions for adjusting the plan at the right time, striving to find a balance point acceptable to both parties while maintaining his own interests.

Yan Jin showed her unique affinity and appeal, communicating with the other party in fluent English, sometimes with humorous words, which made the originally tense negotiation atmosphere relaxed. She sincerely explained to the other party the concept behind the plan and the beautiful vision for future cooperation between the two parties. Her confidence and enthusiasm gradually infected everyone present.

"Mr. Yan, I am impressed by your confidence in this project." After several rounds of verbal battles, Jack's tone softened significantly. "I believe that our cooperation will be successful."

"Cooperation is based on mutual trust and win-win." Yan Jin responded with a smile, "I believe we have found a common goal."

Finally, with the joint efforts of both teams, the framework of the new plan was basically determined. Jack and Emily stood up and shook hands with Xiang Yu and Yan Jin, with satisfied smiles on their faces.

"Happy cooperation!"

However, just as the two parties were about to sign the letter of intent for cooperation, Xiang Yu's cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID, his face changed slightly, he stood up and walked to the window and answered the call.

"What did you say?"

An anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, and Xiang Yu's expression became more and more solemn...

Xiang Yu's fingers tightened slightly while holding the phone, and his knuckles turned white due to the force. He turned his back to everyone, and spoke in a low and hurried tone, "How could this happen? When did it happen?...Okay, I know, I'll arrange it right away and rush back immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yu took a deep breath, turned around and looked at everyone, his face had regained its usual calmness. He walked to the table, picked up the pen, glanced at the letter of intent for cooperation, but did not sign immediately.

Jack noticed Xiang Yu's strangeness and asked with concern: "Mr. Xiang, what happened? Is there anything that requires our cooperation?"

Xiang Yu hesitated for a moment, with a hint of apology in his tone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jack, I have something urgent to deal with right away, so I may have to postpone the signing of the letter of intent for cooperation."

Jack and Emily exchanged glances, and both saw a hint of confusion and worry in each other's eyes. Yan Jin also noticed Xiang Yu's abnormality. She put down the documents in her hand and asked with concern: "What happened? Is it serious?"

Xiang Yu looked at Yan Jin, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He avoided her gaze and said lightly: "The company has some urgent matters that I need to go back to deal with. I will arrange someone to follow up on the cooperation as soon as possible."

After saying this, he did not stop, picked up his coat, and strode out of the meeting room.

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became subtle. Jack and Emily looked at each other, not understanding why the smooth cooperation had suddenly changed. Yan Jin looked at Xiang Yu's hurriedly leaving back, and her heart was also filled with doubts and uneasiness.

"Mr. Yan, this..." Emily hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Yan Jin took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm. She said to Jack and Emily, "I'm sorry to have worried you. I think this is just an accident. We will move forward with the cooperation as soon as possible. Please rest assured."

Although Jack and Emily still had some doubts in their hearts, they didn't say anything more when they saw Yan Jin was so calm. In the end, the two sides reached a preliminary cooperation intention and decided to jointly promote the implementation of the project.

Yan Jin sent Jack and Emily away and returned to her office, but she still couldn't calm down. Xiang Yu's abnormal behavior made her feel uneasy. She picked up her phone and wanted to make a call to ask about the situation, but hesitated.

"Maybe, it's just some small things in the company." Yan Jin comforted herself in this way, but the uneasy feeling in her heart could not be shaken off.

As night falls, Yan Jin and Xiang Yu walk out of the company building side by side. They will return to China with this hard-earned cooperation intention. What awaits them will be more complicated situations and challenges...
