Therefore, Sen Kai would definitely not take the initiative to lead the discussion for this cooperative project.
If Liu Kai Xuan disagreed with the cooperation, wouldn't Sen Kai lose face?
Mang Lan's intention for cooperation had already been conveyed to Ouyang Yu through Princess Sen Ya.
As Sen Kai had predicted, Ouyang Yu was not very interested in this cooperation, so no one was sent to greet Mang Lan and his party.
However, since Mang Lan and his group had already arrived at the development zone.
Regardless of Ouyang Yu's importance, she had to make contact with them.
Moreover, Mang Lan's cooperation project was not entirely impossible.
The most crucial point lay in the share handover!
If Mang Lan could provide a reasonable proportion of shares, the cooperation could still be discussed.
That evening, Princess Sen Ya urged Ouyang Yu again to host a welcoming banquet for Mang Lan and the others.
However, Ouyang Yu paid no attention to this matter.
What a joke!
In Ouyang Yu's heart, Mang Lan and his group were nowhere as important as her elder sister, Ouyang Xue.
Ouyang Yu was currently busy entertaining Ouyang Xue and had no mood to entertain Mang Lan and his idle group!
...
The next morning, Ouyang Yu had planned to take Ouyang Xue to swim at the beach.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the villa, she was stopped by Sen Ya.
Upon seeing Sen Ya, Ouyang Xue quickly bowed and paid her respects.
But Ouyang Yu's behavior astonished her.
Ouyang Yu showed no courtesy in front of Sen Ya.
She said casually, "Sen Ya, can you handle those people for me first?"
"My sister has rarely come to visit, and I want to take her to relax!"
Sen Ya forced herself to explain, "Xiao Yu, don't be so impulsive!"
"Mang Lan and his group have proactively proposed cooperation, which is definitely a good thing for us!"
"The initiative is in our hands, and we can make many demands!"
"If we miss this opportunity, who knows when the next one will come!"
Under Sen Ya's persistent persuasion, Ouyang Yu temporarily changed her mind and decided to meet the group of noble bigwigs.
At the same time, Ouyang Yu suggested, "Sister, why don't you come with me?"
"Alright, I'll go with you!"
This time, Ouyang Xue readily agreed to Ouyang Yu's request.
Ouyang Xue was by no means a shy and taciturn girl; she had even personally guided Ouyang Yu when she debuted years ago.
Since she was involved in this matter, Ouyang Xue also wanted to broaden her horizons and see Ouyang Yu's capabilities firsthand.
Afterward, Ouyang Yu took Ouyang Xue to the dressing room to change into sexy and fashionable evening gowns.
The Ouyang sisters bore a striking resemblance to each other. To distinguish their identities.
Ouyang Yu wore a pink gown, while Ouyang Xue wore a pure white one.
Ouyang Xue was also worldly, so Ouyang Yu did not give her many instructions before they left.
...
An hour later, Ouyang Yu, Ouyang Xue, and Sen Ya arrived at the Kai Xuan Grand Hotel by carriage.
That's right, their mode of transport was a carriage, not a car.
Both the Sen Luo Kingdom and the Kai Ya Kingdom were worlds with strict social hierarchies.
Nobles were graded into different ranks, with corresponding varying powers and statuses.
Carriages for different ranks of nobles also had specific requirements.
The carriage they were currently riding in belonged to Liu Kai Xuan.
This carriage was specially built by Liu Kai Xuan to the specifications of a Grand Duke, and its interior space was very spacious.
Its design was also very luxurious, and traveling in such a carriage was indeed prestigious.
Mang Lan and the other noble bigwigs were all waiting in the second-floor conference room.
Speaking of which, although Mang Lan appeared arrogant, he was actually a very cautious person.
Mang Lan knew that to negotiate successfully, he had to adopt the right attitude.
Asking others for favors while being overly proud was just asking for trouble.
Therefore, upon meeting Ouyang Yu, Mang Lan performed a set of noble etiquette, appearing very refined.
Ouyang Yu's attitude towards Mang Lan, however, was quite casual.
However, the highlight was that Ouyang Xue exchanged a set of standard noble etiquette with Mang Lan and the others.
Even Sen Ya was a little surprised by this.
If one didn't know better, they would think Ouyang Xue was the main protagonist of the day.
After everyone was seated, Mang Lan spoke first, "Miss Ouyang Yu!"
"Have you considered our cooperation proposal?"
"As you can see, we have all come with sincerity. Please do not disappoint us!"
Ouyang Yu replied indifferently, "Grand Duke Mang Lan, you must understand my situation!"
"I am working for the boss in the development zone, and the cooperation matters are not something I can decide."
"Whether this matter can be successful in the end depends on our boss's decision!"
Mang Lan then asked, "Then what has Brother Kai Xuan considered?"
Ouyang Yu shook her head vigorously, "Let me put it this way!"
"The current situation is not optimistic. Our boss has strong opinions about your cooperation proposal."
"If we proceed with your proposed share distribution, our company will end up with nothing to show for all our efforts!"
"The boss said that only by increasing the shares from 20% to 40% can we make a profit!"
Mang Lan chuckled awkwardly and replied, "Young Miss Xiao Yu truly has a sense of humor!"
"If the profits are divided at a 40% ratio, we brothers will be ruined!"
Ouyang Yu replied, "Then I am very sorry!"
"Since our cooperation cannot proceed smoothly, there is no need to continue discussing it!"
"Let's end today's negotiation here!"
As she spoke, Ouyang Yu stood up to leave.
Sen Ya quickly called out to her, "Xiao Yu, don't rush!"
"Even if opinions differ, we can still sit down and discuss further!"
"As long as everyone has a little more patience, I believe we can reach an agreement!"
Ouyang Yu did not take Mang Lan and the others seriously, but she did give Sen Ya face.
Since Princess Sen Ya had spoken, she naturally had to show some consideration.
"Alright, since Her Highness the Princess has spoken, I will say a few more words!"
"Our company needs to carry out a comprehensive upgrade and renovation of the oilfield exploitation facilities!"
"There are too many areas that require expenditure, and the capital we need to invest is enormous!"
