Thinking of the overseas students, Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

After all, it does not mean that all international students are willing to work for Qingtian. A considerable number of these international students also want to stay and work in American universities, companies, and scientific research institutions.

It can only be said that the proportion of those who join Qingtian is higher than that of foreigners, and the quality is better.

Therefore, the main task of Qingtian's office in the United States has actually been reduced to entertaining all kinds of ghosts from the domestic post and telecommunications bureau, which is far different from his original idea.

But there is nothing we can do about it. After all, let alone now, thirty years later, China has become the world's second largest economy, and its paper output has surpassed that of the United States. However, it is still attractive to international students, especially top scientific researchers.

Somewhat unsatisfactory, Qingtian could not recruit satisfactory researchers. Suitable scientific researchers were already in his mind.

It’s just that when you really start walking on this road, you will know where the difficulty lies, and you will truly feel what it means to overcome thorns and thorns, and how difficult it is.

As for Pittman's threat, Fang Chen didn't take it seriously at all. He admitted that Northrop did have great influence in the United States. Once it broke out, not even Clinton could protect him.

In other words, it was easy for Clinton to choose Northrop Company between him and Northrop Company. After all, it is no longer the case. At the beginning, Clinton was poor and had nothing to gain, so he regarded him as a life-saving straw.

It's time.

But as he said just now, he really doesn’t have any foundation in the United States. He needs people but no one, wants business but has no business, so he just gave up. Besides, it doesn’t matter even if he has some.

As Taizu said, don't be afraid of your altars and jars being smashed, and don't care about the gains and losses of every inch of land. The reason why we take a big step to move today is to be able to return to this place in the future.

If he has endless disputes with Northrop over these things, then he is called a big loser.

Hearing Fang Chen's ridicule, Pittman's face instantly turned the color of pig liver, but soon returned to normal, much faster than Pittman himself imagined.

Really, after being angry for just a few seconds, he felt less angry and his anger dissipated like a tide.

Maybe it's because I'm used to it.

It has to be said that human beings' adaptability is always so strong.

Thinking of this, Pitman felt a bit bitter in his heart. He really didn't want to adapt to this.

But scolding Fang Chen can't help him, and he has to actively think of ways to solve the problem. What can he do if he doesn't quickly accept Fang Chen's ugly face and words that deserve a beating?

Fang Chen is the boss of Qingtian, and the entire Qingtian belongs to him. Naturally, he can do whatever he wants. However, he is just a senior manager of Northrop Company. Once he offends those major shareholders and those behind Northrop Company,

If those financial groups are dissatisfied, he will pack up and leave.

Compared to this, how could he be so stubborn?

Just like now, if Fang Chen really doesn't care about Qingtian's foundations and offices in the United States, he really has nothing to do about Fang Chen.

To be honest, he now feels that his biggest mistake was choosing a wrong strategy to deal with Fang Chen, the extreme pressure he usually used.

Be strong, strong, and strong again, until the opponent's spirit breaks down and he has to surrender!

And the reason why he chose the extreme pressure strategy, besides being his usual method, was because he thought Fang Chen would be able to restrain himself a little in the United States.

But obviously the reputation of Northrop Company does not matter in front of Fang Chen, even if this is the United States.

At this time, Pitman suddenly felt like a dog biting a hedgehog, unable to bite it, and even trying to kill someone else for meat.

Taking a deep breath, Pittman said with a sincere and apologetic look: "Mr. Fang, I came to you this time with a sincere heart. I hope you can be noble and let us, Northrop Company, go."

Do not prevent us, Northrop Company, from carrying out normal business in Russia. If you are dissatisfied with anything, or if you want to raise any conditions, just mention them. If you can satisfy them, we, Northrop Company, will try our best to satisfy you.

of."

Bill Gates couldn't help but have an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes. Is this the same Northrop CEO Pittman who is famous for his bad temper?

Surrendered so quickly?

It really surprised him. To be honest, the reason why he was willing to bring Pittman here was because he wanted to see Fang Chen's jokes. He wanted to see what Fang Chen would do when faced with a behemoth like Northrop.

Is there a way to deal with it that can make it tougher?

He has always been worried about the last time Fang Chen coerced and lured him.

Seeing this, Fang Chen couldn't help but chuckle, waved his hand, and said nonchalantly: "President Pittman, I'm afraid you've made a mistake about one thing, that is, Northrop's failure in Russia has nothing to do with me.

It has nothing to do with it, and since it doesn’t matter, then naturally there is no question of letting one go or not. President Pittman, you have come to the wrong door."

Although he didn't understand what Fang Chen meant by finding the wrong temple door, he could probably guess that it meant worshiping the wrong god. Pitman suddenly had the urge to bite Fang Chen to death, but he didn't see it.

How could such a shameless person tell lies with his eyes open?

Doesn’t Fang Chen’s conscience feel painful?

As soon as the idea came to mind, Pitman hurriedly said: "I said the wrong thing. I hope Mr. Fang won't care about it. Since it has nothing to do with you, Mr. Fang, I wonder if you can help me smoothen my relationship with Northrop Corporation in Russia."

There will be a generous reward."

After hearing this, a subtle look flashed in Fang Chen's eyes. Can he say that it was not a fluke that Pittman was able to sit in the position of president of Northrop Corporation?

Being able to bend and stretch like this is quite a skill.

But Fang Chen did not speak, but looked at Pittman with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Pittman felt relieved for a moment, and even felt a mixture of sadness and joy.

I'm happy because Fang Chen looks like this. It's obvious that he's relaxed. It just depends on whether the conditions he proposes are suitable. But what's sad is that how could Northrop, the third largest arms company in the world, end up like this?

a point.

After pondering for a few breaths, Pitman said directly: "Mr. Fang, our Northrop company plans to donate five million U.S. dollars to your charitable foundation to express our apology and make up for our previous wrongdoings to you and the Chinese people.

Huge damage was caused.”

After saying this, Pittman's face was filled with a bright smile. If anyone is familiar with Pittman at this time, he would find that Pittman's expression at this time was the same as when he saw the chairman and the heads of those big conglomerates.

True, with a bit of flattery in the enthusiasm.

As long as Fang Chen is willing to agree, money is not a big problem. It can be said that the price difference of weapons in the war preparation warehouse can be easily earned. If there are any good things in the warehouse, the profit can be five times or even ten times.

The price difference is nothing too strange.

In any era and in any country, the arms business is extremely profitable.

Hearing this, Fang Chen glanced at Pitman in surprise. He was not surprised that Pitman was willing to give him money, let alone the five million US dollars. It was just that he didn't expect that Pitman had done so much in his homework.

We already know that Tian has a charity fund.

Moreover, Pittman's words reminded him of something. There was a great philanthropist standing next to him. It shouldn't be too much to give him a big piece of fat like WPS and let him bleed some, right?

Fang Chen couldn't help but turn his attention to Bill Gates.

Bill Gates and his wife are at the top of the list of the world's top ten philanthropists. The Gates Foundation created by them donates a large amount of money every year to the development of personal computers and promotes the application of human innovation to the fields of reducing health and development.

of inequality.

The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization and the Alliance for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations were founded by Bill Gates, and Bill Gates has also donated large amounts of funds in the United States, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and even China to help people escape poverty and ensure the healthy growth of minors.

, helping poor people curb infectious diseases, etc.

It can be said that Bill Gates has actually spent as much as three to four billion dollars in donations on charity.

Of course, Bill Gates is not entirely willing to donate the money, because US law stipulates that foundations must spend an amount equivalent to 5% of the market value of the foundation's assets every year.

In other words, Bill Gates can’t even donate this money if he wants to.

He was sighing in his heart. The dignified president of Northrop Corporation was reduced to apologizing and groveling in front of Fang Chen. And looking at Pittman's appearance, it was clear that five million was just the beginning, and there was still a lot of room for improvement later on.

Bill Gates suddenly felt a chill coming from beside him, like a cold wind coming, and he couldn't help but shudder.

He subconsciously looked at Fang Chen beside him, and his coldness became even stronger. Suddenly, he felt that in Fang Chen's eyes, he was just a sheep waiting to be slaughtered, and Fang Chen was the butcher sharpening his knife.

He didn't offend Fang Chen, right?

But why did Fang Chen look at him like this?

Bill Gates couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.

But to be honest, seeing Pitman bowing his head and being groveling to Fang Chen, the blackmail and blackmail he had been blackmailed by Fang Chen suddenly didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.

After all, acquiring WPS is indeed beneficial to Microsoft. If Fang Chen hadn't said it, he probably wouldn't have dared to think that Microsoft could acquire WPS.

In comparison, Microsoft pays 8% of the revenue of office software. It is just a question of whether to give more to Fang Chen. If the Chinese market is really as important as Fang Chen said, this 8% is not a loss, how can it be like

Northrop is simply ceding territory to pay compensation.

Thinking of this, Bill Gates had an idea and smiled to himself. Human beings are really too complicated. I originally thought it was quite miserable, but after comparing it to this, I suddenly felt that it was not so miserable.

"If five million dollars is not enough, we at Northrop can continue to add more until you are satisfied."

Seeing that Fang Chen didn't speak for a long time, Pitman's heart skipped a beat, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak again.

Seeing Pitman's attitude of taking whatever he wanted, killing him at will, and never resisting, Fang Chen couldn't help but frown slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Now he suddenly felt that it would be better for Pittman to remain as domineering and arrogant as before.

After all, if Pitman continues to be tough and rude, he will just let Huiming and Han Guang beat him up, and that will be the end.

After a few seconds, Fang Chen glanced at Pittman, turned around and prepared to leave.

Not to mention that he is not short of money, even if he is really short of money, Pittman would not even promise him five million US dollars, even ten million US dollars, he would not take it seriously, even if Pittman is not smarter and says

This five million US dollars is donated to the Qingtian Charitable Foundation. He will definitely let Pittman know how the flowers are red. To bribe him with a mere five million US dollars, isn't this looking down on people!

Most importantly, however, he felt that he and Pittman had nothing to talk about.

To be honest, if Pittman hadn't come to him, he would have forgotten that he had an enemy like Northrop in the United States.
