Chapter 1514 - 1517: Seizing the Initiative

"Please sit, this boss looks quite young, so it's indeed wise to be cautious about a one-million prepayment," said the man sitting behind the desk who appeared very honest and reliable.Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed because as soon as the man spoke, Shen Qiang instantly realized that although this person wore the same tie as Bianyi and shared a striking similarity in aesthetic taste, he was not Bianyi because such an opening was too eager.

Even a fool could see this was a provoking tactic. The subtext was, oh, you haven't seen the world, you have to personally run for a mere million and repeatedly consider it because you're too young.

"I'm someone who likes to settle payments in one go. I've never done anything like prepayments," said the person on the sofa with a smile: "Five million is a small number for me, cash, bank transfer, no problem, but I want to first take a look at that manager."

The man sitting behind the desk brightened up at these words, "No problem, how about meeting tonight?"

Shen Qiang laughed.

Thinking about the details of their scam scheme, examining it closely, this trick was really too simple. Using billboards, mobile promotion vehicles, plus magazines, luring people to the company, everything seemed like a legitimate office environment.

Then arrange a night meeting, have a manager come and talk eloquently, whatever you want, they will have, any of your requests they can meet. If necessary, maybe you can even sign a contract on the spot, or perhaps recruit dozens of employees.

But once you pay the money.

They might just vanish into thin air.

"As for tonight, I'm quite busy, how about now?" Shen Qiang said with a smile.

To take the initiative, the first thing to do is to disrupt other people's plans.

Upon hearing this, the man behind the office desk clearly froze for a moment and then said, "Oh, young boss, you must understand, we are introducing you to a very, very amazing manager. At this time, he's at work and can't come to see you."

"Then change to someone else," Shen Qiang said with a smile, shaking his shining, mirror-like leather shoes: "A five-million annual salary for a restaurant manager. I think it's quite uncommon even in Beijing. If he gives up such an opportunity, then I can only say that's a pity."

The man behind the desk said, "Sir, you're putting us in a difficult situation, let's meet tonight, then you can discuss details."

Looking at his watch, Shen Qiang smiled calmly and said, "Twenty-seven minutes. If the person doesn't arrive, then there's no need to talk about this. I'm very busy and will meet with another headhunting company's people; they also have plenty of managers wanting to introduce to me."

"So don't test my patience, contact that manager immediately. Twenty-seven, no, within twenty-six minutes, appear in front of me, if feasible, I'll immediately give you the money; if not, I'll walk away."

"This..." The man behind the desk looked troubled.

"Can't do it? Then I think I can already leave." Shen Qiang acted as if to get up, at which point, the female secretary who had previously led Shen Qiang and Ke Bizhu into the office panicked: "Sir, please wait, we'll contact him now, please hold on."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang smiled: "Okay, but please hurry."

The female secretary acknowledged, then gave the man behind the desk a reassuring look before turning and leaving.

"Boss, it's the first time I've encountered such an urgent client like you," the man behind the desk said.

Shen Qiang raised an index finger, signaling him to be quiet: "Quiet, I need to rest for a while. Bring the person over when they arrive, and don't say another word."

The man behind the desk was stunned, then felt somewhat uneasy like a thief with a guilty conscience.

Because if he didn't speak, he had no idea what Shen Qiang was thinking, and Shen Qiang's assertiveness and the completely disrupted plan made him feel as if he were sitting on pins and needles.

But at this moment, looking at Shen Qiang, there was a smile on his face.

Because Shen Qiang understood, this group, although it's not clear where they came from, didn't stint on the initial investment to deceive him—billboards, mobile advertising vehicles, printed magazines, plus this company's office space.

With so many people, the design was well-planned. If Shen Qiang got up to leave in this scenario, it meant everything they had planned would fail, and all the manpower and resources previously invested would be in vain. So at this time, their stopping Shen Qiang from leaving and saying they'll contact that manager were entirely within Shen Qiang's expectations.

Not only that.

This is Beijing, such a huge city. Arriving in twenty-six minutes.

A person at work has to hand over their duties and then leave their position, arriving quickly here. These conditions are not just demanding?

To put it bluntly.

Anyone working normally, who would be so foolish to rush here regardless of everything just to attend an uncertain interview?

Moreover, such stringent time requirements imply that this new boss is exceptionally, exceptionally difficult to deal with.

In this case, it's practically impossible for true elites to come, and even if they want to, time may not be enough.

And now, looking at the man behind the desk, although he seemed uneasy as if sitting on pins and needles, he wasn't anxious about whether the person could arrive on time, which meant Shen Qiang's analysis was correct. That so-called manager wasn't at some restaurant position at all.

But rather here.

Otherwise, the female secretary would try everything to gain more time, seek a chance for another meeting, and keep all favorable factors in hand.

After all, the meeting's environment and atmosphere are crucial—a graceful restaurant, soft music, paired with a candlelight dinner. Even an unattractive woman could appear charming.

But now.

The initiative was in Shen Qiang's hands.

Because if Shen Qiang really left, then what Shen Qiang lost was only a little bit of time, while this group, in order to design this trap, not only spent a lot of time but also invested money and manpower, so they would surely suffer heavy losses.

If unwilling to accept such failure, then they would undoubtedly try their best to recover the losses and make one last effort.

After all, in Beijing, there are many headhunting companies, and managers are especially abundant. Once Shen Qiang leaves, if he finds the right person in another company, all their efforts would go to waste.

Whether for scammers or ordinary people, this is unacceptable.

Sitting beside him, Ke Bizhu was very puzzled by Shen Qiang's approach and behavior but still sat silently beside him, not asking anything because she believed that whatever Shen Qiang did, it was the right thing.

Soon, as time quietly passed, twenty-three minutes later, the female secretary knocked on the door, then smiled at Shen Qiang and said: "Hello, sir, she's here, but she wants to meet you alone."
