Chapter 1656: Chapter 1488: Accidents Always Happen Anytime (Please Subscribe!)

Evening.

Hotel Box.

Koff Dale, the president of Electric Group, arrived as scheduled.

After five flavors of dishes.

"Chairman Chai, I understand your intention."

Upon hearing this.

Everyone’s ears perked up.

"Thank you for the invitation, but I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. We initially aimed to have a more efficient Huaxia Company take over the French Bank loan, but the other party wasn’t very willing."

Of course, Chai Ren knew this.

But in the contract.

It only mentioned French companies having priority, without specifying which one. After all, this is a commercial loan, not a national loan, nor is it international aid, so there aren’t many restrictions.

Because of this.

Shang Hao and others came over.

Ultimately.

The power to decide where the project goes lies with Electric Group’s headquarters.

"We know that, but ultimately the decision rests with the company." Chai Ren looked at the big black man in front of him, not opting for bribery, as he was a company shareholder, and spreading such news would be disgraceful.

"Even one is fine." Gu Hua added.

Looking at these few people.

Koff Dale shook his head, "This project will have a French company and two other companies from European Union countries participating in the bidding. Unless one of them withdraws, I can only say sorry."

Three companies?

The few looked at each other.

It seems there’s no chance; they’re here to make money.

This piece of cake.

Who would withdraw?

Since that’s the case, they could only let it go. Subsequently, Gu Hua and others remained passionate towards Koff Dale. Don’t forget, aside from this project, they’ve secured numerous other water and electricity projects from Electric Group.

Perhaps more in the future.

If this doesn’t work out, it should be easier to bid for projects next time. Besides them, Huaxia Energy Group is also their competitor, so showing enthusiasm isn’t a waste.

After the meal.

Chai Ren and his group escorted Koff Dale to the hotel entrance.

"Sorry for any inconvenience."

Gu Hua humbly said in the Huaxia style.

"Thank you, goodbye."

Watching Koff Dale’s car drive away, Chai Ren and the others turned back inside.

"Didn’t succeed." Chai Ren said.

"Came for nothing." Shang Hao shook his head.

Gu Hua corrected him: "How can it be for nothing? This is a major client for our Group."

"Do you think Electric Group will only borrow from European countries in the future? If that’s the case, it could be problematic." Shang Hao suddenly thought of this possibility.

"No."

Chai Ren directly negated.

"Why?" Shang Hao asked curiously.

"Because electricity is a heavy asset model for companies, a large loan at once can almost exhaust this company’s ability to repay, and banks in the European Union won’t engage in such behavior."

"Then it’s still troublesome if the company has no money and no projects."

" . . . "

Chai Ren looked at Shang Hao speechlessly.

Brother.

Talking like this might just shut down the conversation.

"Brother Chai, what’s wrong?"

Faced with Chai Ren’s strange gaze, Shang Hao weakly asked.

"Without the European Union, does that mean there are no banks in the world?" Chai Ren said.

"Oh, yeah."

"Exactly, not just foreign banks, do Congo Gold banks live off nothing?" Chai Ren thought this too, understanding Shang Hao had always been sheltered and needed improvement in his ability to view things.

"Oh."

Shang Hao accepted the teaching humbly.

"When are you going back?" Chai Ren asked.

"After the bidding."

Gu Hua said. Even if it’s futile, they must flutter twice before dying, retreating without a fight isn’t their style, and the Group requires a number of project bids each year.

It wasn’t a wasted effort.

"Okay." Chai Ren nodded.

Once again Shang Hao raised: "Brother Chai, how about we go to Wanqing District and take a look."

"I’ll first check if there are any direct flights tomorrow, if not, I’ll return home immediately." Chai Ren had been out for over half a month, met everyone he needed to, and really missed his daughter.

"Are flights busy?"

"Of course."

A minute later.

"None."

"Huh?"

Shang Hao thought Chai Ren could manage it.

"There are flights the day after tomorrow, tomorrow’s is fully booked, even seats reserved for employees were given to engineers from PetroChina, but there’s availability the day after tomorrow. If you want, you can go." Chai Ren said.

" . . . "

Shang Hao had nothing to say.

Destiny.

As for postponing the engineers’ flights to the day after, he didn’t mention such ’nonsense,’ he even called their leader about this, Chai Ren considered it a hassle, and Shang Hao felt the same.

"Day after tomorrow, to go or not to go." Shang Hao was torn.

Without Chai Ren.

Shang Hao felt he’d be going alone.

Just as he was hesitant.

"Mr. Gu."

A sharply dressed Western man with a high nose came over, smiling and greeting Gu Hua.

"Dennis."

Gu Hua recognized him.

A vice general manager of the French Hydroelectric Company, a company considered half a state-owned enterprise in France, has done well in Africa, frequently encountering them on the same projects.

Unfortunately.

Huaxia’s construction advantages are growing.

These enterprises see them as a formidable enemy.

"Are you here on holiday?" Dennis chuckled, knowing why Gu Hua was here, this project certainly wasn’t for Huaxia Company, making their presence no different from a holiday.

"Almost."

Gu Hua was too lazy to explain.

"Then enjoy your trip."

"Will do."

After Dennis left.

"Who is that?" Shang Hao asked.

"A rival."

"Feels like he’s the one vacationing." Shang Hao said, noticing Dennis outside hugging a woman; his taste is quite exotic, as she’s an African, judging by her skin, likely mixed race.

. . .

The next day.

Afternoon.

Kinshasa Airport.

"Remember, don’t run around, people here don’t recognize who your dad is." Before leaving, Chai Ren reminded Shang Hao.

"Got it."

After hesitating for a night, he decided not to visit Wanqing Industrial Park; this time, he gained nothing, and traveling alone would be too embarrassing to discuss, with face that can’t be lost like this.

"Good that you know, President Gu, goodbye." Chai Ren said.

"Safe journey."

After that.

Chai Ren turned and entered the airport; this flight was directly to Beijing in Huaxia, thus, upon boarding the airplane, he acknowledged the Bodyguards employed by Tongtian, as the protection contract had reached expiration.

After Chai Ren entered the airport.

Four fighters got into a car and vanished off the street.

"President Gu, let’s go."

"Okay."

Just as they were about to head back.

Gu Hua’s phone rang.

"What’s the situation?"

Several seconds later.

"What? Really?" Gu Hua’s voice rose several degrees.

Upon confirmation.

A smile involuntarily appeared on Gu Hua’s face; honestly, a flip was still just a flip, but with new scenery, it was another view entirely.

Shang Hao was stunned watching.

Curiously asked: "What happened?"

Looking at Shang Hao.

Gu Hua smiled.

"A bit of a surprise."

"What surprise?"

"Six years ago, the French Hydroelectric Company built the Bilochi Hydropower Station for Congo Gold. Due to continuous rain after construction or other reasons, a large dam breach occurred, and several departments from Congo Gold have intervened for investigation."

Unexpectedly.

Things always happen anytime.

And it came at the right time.
