Ma Huateng was stunned as well.
After a while, squinting at Yi Feng, he asked calmly, “President Yi, do you find so aspects of the betting agreent unsuitable?”
He felt a weight in his heart, sensing that Yi Feng was not soone easily fooled, with deep and calculating thoughts.
The eting room fell silent. Yi Feng knocked on the table, and the sound seed to strike directly at everyone’s hearts.
“President Ma, the betting agreent states that I only have advisory rights to the company’s affairs. That’s not right.”
“Why bother betting with then?”
“Does this betting agreent even serve a purpose?”
Yi Feng stared unwaveringly at Ma Huateng, neither backing down in their gaze. The previously harmonious atmosphere in the eting room cooled significantly.
Sun Feng and Gong Feizhang exchanged glances, wisely choosing to remain silent.
They were rely shareholders without the right to interfere in company affairs and did not intend to get involved, rely observing from the sidelines.
However, Sun Feng found the young man before him interesting and bold.
He could see that Yi Feng’s goal was clear: power, the authority to have a say within Tencent!
In matters involving his own interests, this young man dared to break the delicate harmony, a boldness not possessed by just anyone, requiring significant courage and audacity.
Then, Cheng Dan broke the silence, softly saying, “President Yi, we are concerned that as you are new, you might not be familiar with the company’s affairs. Assigning you missions hastily might also trouble you and potentially impact the company’s business.”
His words seed considerate of Yi Feng, but the underlying ssage was clear: you’re unfamiliar with the company, so it’s better not to ddle in specific missions.
Yi Feng glanced at him, smiling, “President Cheng, do I seem like soone who’s afraid of being troubled?”
Though spoken with a smile, his reply effectively blocked Cheng Dan’s argunt, leaving him unable to respond whether in affirmation or denial.
Cheng Dan found himself at a loss for words.
Sun Feng chuckled, appreciating Yi Feng’s assertiveness. As an investor, Yi Feng needed to show his strength.
Ma Huateng’s expression darkened slightly, then he smiled, saying, “President Yi, I think once we’ve worked together for a while and you’re familiar with the company, we can discuss how to achieve ten million in revenue. That’s also our goal. From now on, we’re a team, and I’m certainly willing to let you take charge.”
Ma Huateng’s words implied reluctance to make concessions, suggesting that Yi Feng sign the agreent first, then discuss the authority to participate in affairs later.
This seed to aim at holding Yi Feng back, not easily granting him power.
Yi Feng smiled slightly, “President Ma has a point.”
Hearing this, everyone relaxed slightly, their tension easing.
“Then let’s discuss the investnt details later. I can take more ti to understand your esteed company,” Yi Feng said calmly.
The room gasped in surprise!
Everyone had thought Yi Feng was about to compromise, but instead, he proposed postponing the investnt or even suggested the possibility of not investing at all!
And Yi Feng’s stance was very firm!
Sun Feng was astonished, not expecting Yi Feng to push to such an extre.
What confidence did he have?
Yi Feng pulled out a hard drive from his bag, placing it on the table, smiling, “This is my proposed profit model for QQ, but I can only set up and execute this plan myself. If I only have advisory power, I can’t fully control the process, rendering this plan aningless.”
After speaking, Yi Feng packed away his things, glanced at everyone, shrugged, and said, “It seems today is not the right ti for official business. However, it’s been an honor to et you all.”
“If there’s nothing else, I have company matters to attend to.”
His ssage was clear: he was ready to leave, leaving them to decide their next steps.
“President Feng!”
Zhang Zhibei, anxious, attempted to retain Yi Feng, unwilling to miss this opportunity. Waiting another two months would break the company’s financial chain!
Sun Feng and Gong Feizhang were also incredibly surprised. Was this deal going to fall through?
Was Ma Huateng truly unwilling to delegate authority?
Without soone stepping back, the negotiations indeed couldn’t continue.
As Yi Feng was about to stand, Ma Huateng, who had been silent for a long ti, finally spoke, “Wait a mont, President Yi, no rush, no rush. I’ve been thinking, and you make a good point. I believe in your ability to create greater value for the company.”
“I propose that President Yi serves as our Vice President in charge of the Operations Departnt, partnering with Old Zeng. What do you all think?”
Cheng Dan’s expression darkened, saying nothing.
Zhang Zhibei nodded, “I think it’s feasible. Old Zeng knows the company’s operations best. A partnership between President Feng and Old Zeng couldn’t be better.”
Zeng Jing, taken aback, then said, “I’ll follow President Ma’s arrangent and do my best.”
Sun Feng’s eyes flashed with insight.
Ma Huateng had made a concession and delegated authority!
Yi Feng’s extre push and pull had succeeded!
It seed Tencent’s financial situation was worse than reported, desperately needing new funds and profit-generating businesses!
To keep the company afloat, Ma Huateng was willing to delegate authority!
Since Ma Huateng had made concessions, it ant that hopes to change the profitability situation were now pinned on Yi Feng.
They had seen the report on Xifeng Company. Apart from the computer business, Xifeng was also ready to fully promote a software called 361 Computer Security Manager, the only software in the industry currently using heuristic scanning technology, with a clear and promising profit model.
Considering the 361 Computer Security Manager factor, if QQ and 361 Computer Security Manager were bundled together, it could bring hope to QQ.
Thinking this, Sun Feng suddenly said, “President Yi, you see, President Ma is quite sincere. I think it’s ti for Tencent to introduce so fresh blood and rejuvenate with new vitality!”
Sun Feng’s comnt was in Yi Feng’s favor, also a gesture of goodwill towards him.
Even Sun Feng said so, Ma Huateng, now with a warm smile, told Yi Feng, “I’ll have Zhibei adjust the agreent right now. What do you think, President Yi?”
Everyone’s gaze turned to Yi Feng, all eyes on him.
Yi Feng grinned, “President Ma’s proposal is good. I’m honored to join Tencent and beco part of the team.”
Ma Huateng laughed heartily, “Ha ha, we’re even more honored to have President Yi’s favor. I believe by working together, we can make QQ bigger and stronger!”
Wang Tie, witnessing the negotiation, was greatly enlightened, admiring Yi Feng even more.
President Feng’s negotiating skills were indeed high, very high!
Afterward, Zhang Zhibei went to adjust the betting agreent and the investnt contract, then brought it back to Yi Feng for review.
After checking several tis, Yi Feng found no issues and agreed to sign on the spot.
Ma Huateng and Yi Feng signed their nas, stamped their seals, and exchanged the signed docunts.
With the signing complete, Ma Teng stood up, extending his hand, smiling, “Thank you for your trust, President Yi. Here’s to a pleasant and successful collaboration!”
Yi Feng stood up and shook his hand, responding with a smile, “Thank you, President Ma. I look forward to your guidance.”
They smiled at each other, appearing very cordial, both satisfied with the cooperation.
Beneath the harmonious and friendly exterior were countless sches and calculations.
