After pondering for a few seconds, he sighed and truthfully explained to Song Zhenhai, "President Song, I'm sorry, I do intend to collaborate with you, but I have ties with Shanghai..."
Song Zhenhai, after listening, was silent for a moment, then laughed heartily, "Thank you, President Qi, for being so honest with me. If you eventually choose Shanghai, then I can have a talk with Old Huang. After all, Shanghai and Jiangsu are so close, it's not unreasonable to let him share a bit of the soup."
Qi Yun didn't expect the other party to adjust his mindset so quickly; indeed, he hadn't misjudged him.
"Haha, I have no objection on my side, President Song can go ahead and negotiate with Shanghai."
"Alright, alright, thank you, President Qi. Then I won't disturb your work, and you're always welcome to Jiangsu."
After some polite exchanges, the two ended the call.
Qi Yun sat back down on the sofa and dialed Huang Zhiqiang's private number to inform him of the final decision.
