"Haha." I smiled faintly again and asked: "Mr. Cao, what is your annual salary?"

"Two million, RMB." Wenhuai Cao replied without thinking.

"Well, then two million yuan. If Mr. Cao is willing to give me two million per year, we will sign a labor contract immediately. By the way, what I want is a guaranteed minimum annual salary."

Wenhuai was startled, then frowned: "This is impossible, your request is too..."

I spread my hands: "Then there is nothing to talk about."

Wenhuai looked at me fixedly, and after a moment he almost gritted his teeth and said, "You play me?"

"Haha." I shook my head, "It's obviously Mr. Cao that you let me give you a price. Now you say I am playing you. Okay, whatever."

Speaking of this, I poured a glass of wine and drank it, and shook the empty glass at Luoshui Lin: "Miss Lin, you made an appointment with me. You pay the bill, thank you."

Put the cup back on the table, I got up and walked out.

"Have you considered the consequences of offending me?" Wenhuai Cao's voice came from behind.

"Ho." I couldn't help turning my head and beckoning to him: "You so awesome, come and hit me, come on."

"Yeah, I’m going to do that!" He clenched his fists, but didn't get up.

"Asshole."

I sneered, turned around, and walked out of the cafe.

I took out a cigarette, and when I was about to light it, I remembered that you can’t smoke in crowded places outdoors in Thailand...

In desperation, I had to walk to the opposite of the road, smoke in a quiet corner.

Scum like Wenhuai Cao, I can beat a few of them a day in prison. He was nobody.

If he wants to play dirty, it was just what I want. As for the BTT project, I didn’t target him at all, and the revised plan was not aimed at other domestic companies and Indians at all.

It was only aimed at those Americans in Silicon Valley. As long as they can infinitely magnify the their shortcomings, I can eliminate them, then BTT will definitely accept the offer of Sea Smart Software Company, other companies will be out of play.

After smoking, I calmed down when I returned to the hotel and immersed myself in writing a draft. I must win the project tomorrow.

The next day, I changed into a newly bought suit and tidied up meticulously.

Looking in the mirror, I even had an illusion of myself back to three years ago.

When I went out, I happened to run into Wendy, she glanced at me blankly as usual, and then slightly startled, she looked at me carefully, an incredible look flashed in her eyes.

"Handsome?" I put my hands in my pockets pretendingly, and said lightly.

"Narcissism." She returned to that cold and arrogant state. After spitting out the word without any emotion, she walked towards the elevator with high heels.

Only then did I realize that she wore a dress that seemed to be more upscale, which made her figure more perfect.

Especially when walking, the round hips swaying under the thin waist, and the long, white legs under the skirt.

Just a natural stunner.

On the way to BTT, Wendy told me a piece of news: Yesterday, four companies voluntarily withdrew from the competition. Among them, three domestic companies, one Indian company, and the reason for their withdrawal were because they knew they couldn't compete, and they had already left Chiangmai last night.

There are four companies that were still sticking to it, Sea Smart Software Company where I work, Mandy Cole from Wenhuai Cao, and one each in Silicon Valley and India.

Among them, the one with the greatest opportunity was the one in Silicon Valley, and the least favored one was Sea Smart Software Company. Even Mandy Cole, who was also from China, had a greater chance than us because they were foreign companies and their headquarters was in the U.S.

If it were not for me, Wendy would have given up long ago.

In addition, Wendy was also worried that if Silicon Valley companies are eliminated, BTT will choose Mandy Cole, because that company had American technology and Chinese labor, which can almost satisfy all the requirements of BBT.

I think her worry was completely unnecessary. If she can persuade the Thais to exclude Silicon Valley, it will be enough to prove that they prefer me and will naturally refuse others.

When I came to the BTT building, only half of the ten people in the Sea Smart Software Company project team entered the round table meeting room, they sat on one side of the round long table, including me. I was lucky enough to sit next to Wendy.

Soon, several senior members of BTT arrived, including Shadisong, but from the order of entry, his status was not too high.

Wendy greeted the representative in Namaste, and then introduced me to them.

In the past few years, I had experienced many formal business occasions, and now I was not nervous at all. I put my hands together in a manner that was neither humble nor arrogant, and I greeted each other one by one in a proficient Thai language.

In the face of me, a little assistant, the other senior officials neither neglected nor paid too much attention to etiquette.

The two parties were seated, and Wendy went straight to the point and said that we had deliberately revised the plan in order to win the opportunity to cooperate with BTT.

When Wendy ask me to explain it, I stood up at the right time, folded my hands and agreed to a few Thai guys, walked onto the demonstration platform that had already prepared projectors and other equipment, and said in Thai:

"Gentlemen, we have a business concept in China called 'humanization', which means that on the basis of meeting the functional needs of users, we design products and services that conform to users' living habits and operation habits, so as to maximize the satisfaction of users’ psychological requirements, and continuously improve the products and services around the core of humanization to achieve more satisfactory results for customers.

"The key point I want to introduce to you today is the very user-friendly part of the OA system tailored by Sea Smart Software Company for BTT."

After that, I opened the software system and projected it on the screen, explaining the details of the deliberate modification, and comparing it with the software from Silicon Valley, emphasizing the advantages of humanized design.

This was a comparison of products. I focused to use as objective tone and words as possible to highlight the only advantages of domestic software, easy to understand and easy to use, while at the same time infinitely amplifying the complex and cumbersome shortcomings of Silicon Valley software.

After comparing the products, I started to talk about what Shadisong said, let the BTT executives shift their focus from product technology to service.

I managed to bring them into my own rhythm. They listened very attentively throughout the process, and the occasional questions were all about product update and maintenance.

However, I gradually felt that the representative of the BTT called Awala looked at me weirdly.

At first he look cold, and gradually he had some appreciation in eyes, and now he began to show a look... a look I had seen in prison, a gay look.

This made me horrified, because Awala was a man and a little old man in his fifties.

He was also the COO of the BTT, who was fully responsible for the software procurement project. A person on this position was not so easy to appreciate others, and I was just a small assistant.

My God, he was really a gay, and he had a crush on me now.
