Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Vladimir hadn't expected that all Chinese people were like this, or rather, that all capable Chinese people were this kind of person who would break up at the drop of a hat, damn it...

Flamikil looked at the hotel manager, unsure of how to proceed. Strictly speaking, this had nothing to do with the manager; he only had himself to blame for breaking his promise!
The original idea was to cooperate with Fan Jinyou, but we couldn't offend He Yuzhu. The best approach was to remain calm, set aside the controversy, and see how capable Fan Jinyou was before making any decisions.
It now seems that I underestimated He Yuzhu and Chen Xueru and overestimated my position in their hearts. They don't care who they cooperate with, or given the size of the He Group, it doesn't matter if the cooperation fails.

Compared to the vast Chinese market, look at the polar bear market, and consider the goods being traded—they really don't care.

Considering that this company was going to be handed over to Chen Zhen, perhaps they were just preparing a toy for the child, and the initial assessment of He Yuzhu was not perfect.

In other words, He Yuzhu doesn't care whether the cooperation succeeds or not. If it succeeds, he'll just be Chen Zhen's training toy; if it fails, it won't be a big deal. He probably never thought about making money!
Wait, Chen Zhen? How could I forget about him? I absolutely have to see him before He Yuzhu leaves Polar Bear.
At the very least, we need to dispel He Yuzhu's misunderstanding of the Vlamik family so that he can have a powerful local figure protecting him when he goes to the capital in the future. Otherwise, they will be enemies.
Otherwise, He Yuzhu wouldn't have disappeared without a word after cancelling the hotel reservation. Thinking of this, Vlamikil immediately rushed to the school, wanting to see Chen Zhen as soon as possible!

“Vlamik, I’m not lying to you. My mother and her husband returned to the capital of China a long time ago. They left this morning.”

Mr. Vladimir, you have indeed gone too far in this matter. We have a saying in China: "Even if a deal falls through, goodwill should remain."
My mother and I traveled a long way to get here, not for you to stand me up. I can't help you with this either.

"We can only do this if you go to Beijing or if the two of you come to Polar Bear again!"

Chen Zhen sneered. Now you're getting anxious? Where the hell were you all this time? Weren't we unable to find you this morning? Your father is a big shot in the capital; how could he tolerate such arrogant treatment?
"Chen, some family matters have caused a delay. I really didn't mean to. Please convey my apologies to Mr. He!"

Vladimir was speechless. They had just checked out that morning, and now they were already back? How did they get back? They couldn't have gone via the west, could they?

Wait, did He Yuzhu really go to the West? There aren't that many trains going to China, but there are still some going to the West;

Warsaw has so many countries; you could go to any one of them and then go to any Western country. Could what Chen Zhen said be true? Did He Yuzhu really leave?
If that's the case, the family business can only be entrusted to Fan Jinyou, and I have no way out. If something goes wrong with Fan Jinyou, my position in the family will be greatly affected, which is unacceptable.

That's right, we absolutely cannot allow any problems to arise in the cooperation. We were reckless this morning, relying entirely on their one-sided story without proper investigation. He Yuzhu has already left, so it's too late to say anything now! Compared to Fan Jinyou, Vlamikil still trusts He Yuzhu, but He Yuzhu's conditions are unacceptable to the family. The reason the cooperation ran into problems is because He Yuzhu's conditions were too harsh!
Of course, this is from the perspective of the Vlamikl family. From He Yuzhu's perspective, the Vlamikl family's conditions were too harsh, even excessive, and they were going too far.

The entire company requires He Yuzhu to invest three million, and 51% of the company's shares must be registered under Vlamikl's name. Isn't this a blatant rip-off contract?

He Yuzhu isn't a fool with too much money; how could he possibly agree to such cooperation terms? It's just that Vladimir's father was being delusional, always thinking that doing business with Polar Bear required cooperating with the Vladimir family, otherwise, it would be impossible to make any progress.

That's for sure. The polar bears of today are just like those of China seven or eight years ago, but the situation of the polar bears is also quite different.
For example, the Vinogradov family, to which Elena belongs, and six other families are also exceptions. These families have developed a huge network in the polar bear region over the years and can be said to be very powerful.
Compared to these families, the Vlamikl family was really no match for them. Therefore, He Yuzhu decisively chose to cooperate with the more powerful Vinogradov.

A bad mood might even lead to a full-scale attack on Vladimir's company. Compared to Vladimir's identity, Elena's status as the youngest princess of the Vinogradov family is more advantageous for future calculations!
This is one of the future seven giants, how can a mere Vlamikl compare? Isn't this like ignoring a super golden opportunity and instead burning Vlamikl's cold shoulder? And such an arrogant and ungrateful cold shoulder at that?
“Ms. Elena, my cooperation is mutually beneficial for both of us. Of course, you will need to handle the company formalities, but I believe it will be a piece of cake for the Vinogradov family, wouldn’t you say?”

He Yuzhu laid out the conditions: the He Group would invest three million US dollars, and the Vinogradov family would be responsible for removing any obstacles that might hinder the normal sale of the goods.
The He Group gave Elena 30% of the shares. Of course, Elena was responsible for the normal operation and security of the trading company in Polar Bear. No one lost out!
"Oh, of course, how could I refuse such generous terms? Mr. He, I would like to ask, is the breakdown of your cooperation with the Vlamik family related to that old man's greed and stinginess?"

Elena seemed completely unconcerned about how much profit she would receive, nor about the rights of the foreign trade company. Instead, she was quite curious about the reasons for the breakdown of the cooperation between He Yuzhu and Vladimir.
This is understandable; after all, she is the little princess of the Vinogradov family. How could she possibly take a small startup company seriously? Not to mention that the company hasn't even opened yet.
If this company could provide her with substantial profits in the future, perhaps she would care a bit more? Unfortunately, that's very difficult.

This man's family owns a bank, although it's an official one. But He Yuzhu knows that in five or six years, this bank will belong to the Vinogradov family.

They will also take the opportunity to expand rapidly, spreading their influence throughout the political, business, and military spheres, becoming a financial giant who can command the winds and rains in the Arctic Bear. This is why He Yuzhu made a decisive decision!
“Ms. Elena, I don’t know the reason either. It’s just that Vlamikl demanded control of the company and 51% of the shares. That’s the real reason why no agreement was reached!”

He Yuzhu, of course, didn't know who the old man was. Perhaps he was Mr. Vladimir's father? Heh... (End of Chapter)
