Chapter 5 Negotiating in Bed

Leo Moyer was in the room on the second floor, watching the surveillance in the hall downstairs. Megan Pham did not know what to say. Henley's mother and son, who had been cocky, looked very ugly when they left. "I'm finally gone." Jack Hull breathed a sigh of relief. "This ill-intentioned mother and son come to Woodforest every three or five times to see you. I don't know how deep your feelings are. In fact, they are afraid that you will suddenly wake up." "The more guilty they are, the more tricky Jordan Ranch is. Let Danny keep an eye on them." "Good." Jack Hull answered and looked at Megan Pham in the surveillance screen, making no secret of his admiration for Megan Pham. "Little sister-in-law is so courageous that she can not change her face in the face of Henley, an old fox spirit.". Leo, you're married to a baby. Leo Moyer made no comment, but asked, "Are the documents you were asked to prepare ready?" "Yes, it's on the coffee table." "Good." Not long after Jack Hull went down, Megan Pham came up. She hadn't slept all night. She was black and blue. She looked a little haggard, but haggard didn't affect her beauty. As soon as Megan Pham entered the room, she saw Leo Moyer sitting on the sofa. "I was in the hospital all night last night and didn't fool around outside." She opened her mouth to explain. Leo Moyer did not speak, and his dark eyes looked at her meaningfully. Megan Pham got a chill out of his spine. "I'm really in the hospital. I'm not playing outside." "Come here." He spoke heavily. "What do you want?" Megan Pham remembered the night before he tore her clothes apart, and she was too sad to approach. "Come here and sign this document." Megan Pham followed Leo Moyer's gaze and saw the file bag on the coffee table. No, she only stayed out one night, and he wanted her to sign the divorce papers? No, she can't divorce yet. If she returns the bride price now, everything will be over! "I'm really in the hospital. My brother was critically ill yesterday. I've been guarding the ICU gate. If you don't believe me, you can go to the hospital to check.." "Who says I don't believe it?" Leo Moyer interrupted her. Leo Moyer never knew about Megan Pham's family, and last night, out of curiosity, he asked Danny to pull the the Pham family's information, which made him understand why Megan Pham was in a hurry to get married a week after her father died. Why are you so short of money after taking the Moyer family 80 million betrothal gifts. It turned out that she had a blood-sucking uncle, a vegetative brother, and a century-old mess with a broken capital chain. She was not the greedy woman in her imagination, on the contrary, her thin shoulders carried too much alone. He seems to have misjudged her. "Then why did you divorce me?" Megan Pham asked. "Divorce?" Leo Moyer raised his eyes. "You want to divorce now that you haven't got your money back for 80 million. That's beautiful." What do you want me to sign? Isn't it a divorce agreement? Leo Moyer took the papers out of the bag and pushed them in front of Megan Pham. Megan Pham fixed her eyes on the document, which was not a divorce agreement, but a contract for investing in shares. She grabbed the document, flipped through two pages, and immediately came to her senses. "You're investing in The Modern?" "Don't get too excited. Read the contract." She turned over two more pages and furrowed her brows. "Eighty million, 30% equity?"? Why don't you grab it? Megan Pham originally thought that he was willing to invest in The Modern to save Jianghu, but after looking through the contract carefully, he went to his Jianghu to save Jianghu! This is totally taking advantage of the situation! She knew how evil capitalists like Leo Moyer, who ate people without spitting bones, could suddenly have a good heart. How much do you think your 30% stake is worth? Giving you 80 million yuan is already a price increase. If you sell it at the market price, no one will want 8 million yuan. "You're talking nonsense. The Modern is a century-old brand. This sign is not worth eight million yuan." "You don't have to sign it, and I don't have to vote." Leo Moyer crossed his legs and looked calm and relaxed. "Don't sign!"! I will never sign it! Megan Pham justifiably refused. Leo Moyer didn't stop her either. As he said, he didn't have to vote. The reason why he asked the lawyer to draw up the contract was that he felt guilty about misunderstanding her before and wanted to give her some compensation. Since she didn't appreciate it, that's all. Megan Pham went to take a shower to catch up on her sleep, but she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep because she was thinking about the 80 million yuan that had come to her mouth and flown away. In fact, she knew that Leo Moyer's analysis was not wrong at all. The most glorious time when The Modern was once hard to find has passed. Now it is very difficult to make a comeback just by relying on the feelings of a time-honored brand. Leo Moyer spent 80 million to buy 30% of the shares. If he was not careful, he would lose money. It's all her fault that she was too impulsive just now and refused too simply. Megan Pham rolled over on the big bed and saw Leo Moyer sitting on the other side of the bed reading a book. A yellow light at the head of the bed made his eyes clear and diluted his cold sense of distance. "Leo Moyer, how about 80 million, 10% of the equity?" She couldn't help but move closer to him. Leo Moyer didn't seem to hear. He didn't even look up. Eighty million, fifteen percent. Megan Pham, one more step. 　　“……” "Twenty percent." 　　“……” "Twenty-five percent, no more!" "Are you buying vegetables in the vegetable market?" "Leo Moyer", "closed the book with a bang, and looked at her with a cold face:" Don't bargain, no discussion. Megan Pham's heart died, and sure enough, she had no chance of winning a negotiation with such a business tycoon. All right, that's 80, 000% of the equity. I'll sign the contract, but I have to add a few more supplementary clauses. First, you can't interfere with The Modern's original business model. Second, you just invest and have no decision-making power. Third, when I make money, I can redeem your equity at any time. "I'm a businessman, not a philanthropist." He reminded. "I didn't ask you to do charity. I said I would return the money to you later. If you don't believe it, you can write it in the contract." Wearing a nightdress, Megan Pham was lying on the bed, with a beautiful chest and a pair of deer-like eyes looking at him sincerely, which made his heart itch. Negotiating with such a woman in bed, no matter how smart a man is, he doesn't seem to have much chance of winning. Forget it. He didn't intend to make a splash with this investment. He gave it to her. If she went to deal with a scum like Howard Moyer for this little money again, he would be the one who would lose face in the end. "Contact a lawyer to change the contract tomorrow." Leo Moyer spoke cold and hard. "You agree!"! That's great! Thank you Megan Pham's smile brightened as a big stone fell from her heart. "Cell phone." Leo Moyer reached out to her. "Hm?" "Give me the phone." "What for?" Megan Pham handed the phone to Leo Moyer, who saw his long fingers racing across her screen, followed by a string of numbers in her address book. "This is my cell phone number." Leo Moyer said lightly, "Call this number when you have something to do in the future." "Oh." Megan Pham looked at Leo Moyer's angular side lines and suddenly felt that he was not as impersonal as he was rumored to be, except for his cold temper. This time he helped her, and when she got through this difficulty, she would thank him very much. 　　* Leo Moyer's 80 million was a temporary reprieve for Megan Pham. At Monday's regular meeting, she attended for the first time as the new head of The Modern. At the meeting, Megan Pham rectified The Modern's historical legacy one by one, overturning numerous decisions by Krew Pham to consume old brands. She announced the closure of more than 200 poorly managed branches across the country, and proposed new strategies such as re-reasonable pricing of previously raised dishes, paying close attention to product quality, and regular training of service personnel. Devin Ellison thought Megan Pham was just a show. The first time he saw the little girl, he thought she was so beautiful. She looked like a doll. She had never suffered. It must be difficult for her to take the lead. Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, she made up for the broken capital chain of The Modern, and found out the biggest problems of The Modern now. It has the style of her father Kian Pham in those years. It seems that the inheritance of blood can not be false. The news of the new CEO of The Modern was quickly reported by the major media. At the same time, the media also reported the three most important fires after the young CEO took office. Everyone was expecting the old brand to be revitalized, which brought a lot of traffic to The Modern. Just when all the employees of The Modern were full of confidence and ready to roll up their sleeves and work harder, a new restaurant called The View Restaurant was opened opposite the head office of The Modern. The View Restaurant's positioning and dishes are almost the same as the Modern, but the price is generally lower than the Modern, and because it is a new store, the activities are very eye-catching. The View Restaurant managed to pry away most of The Modern's customers, and soon, The View Restaurant's second, third, fourth.. Stores have opened one after another, and all of them are located close to The Modern. This is clearly someone playing tricks. "It's father and daughter Krew and Joy Pham." Devin Ellison was so angry that he pounded the table. "They poached some of The Modern's old employees. Under the name of the next century-old brand, they tried to completely squeeze out The Modern's market share while enjoying the popularity of The Modern." Megan Pham thought that Krew Pham had lost The Modern's money and taken her 40 million betrothal gift to calm down, but she didn't expect to do these tricks behind her back. "What to do?" Devin Ellison has no idea. "At this rate, The Modern will be worse off than before." Megan Pham paces the conference room, her usual little way of thinking. After a while, she said, "Mr.". Ellison, don't worry. If they want to reproduce The Modern before, let them reproduce it. Let's just move forward. I originally thought that I would launch a new product after a period of time when the customers recovered. Now it seems that this plan has to be advanced. "New product?" "Yes, the taste of the public is constantly changing. Even if it is a century-old brand, it has to constantly bring forth new ideas. I intend to introduce ten new dishes on the basis of retaining the original classic dishes." "Do you have to hire a new chef?" "I've already made contact." Megan Pham said, glancing at her watch. "I almost forgot. His plane landed in Portland today. I have to pick him up at the airport.". Mr. Ellison, wait till I get back. "Good." Megan Pham hurried to the parking lot, and before she could get to her car, she saw Joy Pham and her new boyfriend, Conner Dorsey, the second son of the Dorsey family, driving up. “Megan Pham。” When Joy Pham saw her, she immediately lowered the window. "Long time no see. Congratulations on your wedding.". How's it going? Did your vegetative husband become sour and smelly after lying for half a year? Lying with him won't smoke you, will it? Joy Pham is Megan Pham's cousin, but the two have not dealt with each other. Joy Pham especially hates Megan Pham, and hates that every time there is a party at home, she is always compared with Megan Pham. Next to Nu Wa's favorite Megan Pham, even though Joy Pham is bright enough, it always looks pale. This time Megan Pham married for her to the Moyer family and got a vegetative husband, which made Joy Pham a lot of psychological balance. So what if she looks beautiful again? In the end, she is not a flower inserted in cow dung. Megan Pham didn't want to talk to Joy Pham. She thought that if Joy Pham knew that the vegetable she refused to marry was tall and leggy, and that she was smelling hormones in her private gym every day, she would be more manly than Conner Dorsey, the gigolo beside her. Why don't you speak? Are you in a bad mood? "You must be worried to hear that The Modern's performance has plummeted in recent days," said Joy Pham, leaning over the car window and chewing gum. "Take care of your own The View Restaurant. Come fair and square if you can. Don't just play tricks behind your back." Megan Pham drops this and gets in the car and leaves. "Bah!" Joy Pham spits out the tasteless gum in the direction of Megan Pham's departure and closes the window in disgust. This is Mr. Moyer's new wife? Don't tell me, it's beautiful. Conner Dorsey said casually. "Who do you think is beautiful?" Joy Pham frowned. Conner Dorsey immediately coaxed, "Baby baby don't be angry, I just casually said, in my heart of course you are the most beautiful." Joy Pham snorted with satisfaction and said, "Although Megan Pham looks good, she is actually a brainless person. The Modern is still holding this outdated brand as a treasure. Wait and see how The View Restaurant rubs The Modern on the soles of its feet." 　　* Megan Pham hurried and missed the pick up time. When she arrived at the airport, Clark Greer was already waiting at the airport exit. He was dressed in black, wearing a wide-brimmed fisherman's hat on his head, and his whole body was covered tightly, but he still couldn't stop his peach blossom eyes. “Clark Greer！” Megan Pham called him across the street. When Clark Greer saw her, he came straight to her with his luggage. When he saw her coming, Clark Greer reached out for a hug, but Megan Pham pushed him away. "Sir, please keep your distance. I'm married!" She is a bombshell when she opens her mouth. "What?"? Are you married? Clark Greer almost dropped his jaw. "Why didn't you say you were in the sky?" It's a long story. I'll talk to you later. Come on, my car is still parked on the side of the road. The two get in the car, and Clark Greer still hasn't gotten over the fact that Megan Pham is married. Are you really married? With who? "Say you don't know Leo Moyer." “Leo Moyer？ Is this Leo Moyer from The One International? I know him. "You know him?" Megan Pham is surprised that Clark Greer has been abroad for several years, and only returns to China for a few days every Spring Festival. Is Leo Moyer so famous? "Of course, I heard his name when I was in England. You know, Covo Square in London is Leo Moyer's, and TI's rich area villa is also his property." Megan Pham was secretly shocked, and God knows what kind of super boss Joy Pham missed. "Ok, how long haven't you seen, and you become a rich and powerful Mrs.?". Moyer. When will you arrange me to meet your husband? "Not yet." "Why?" "Because he had an accident six months ago and became a vegetable." "What about books?"? This reversal is too big! Clark Greer's jaw dropped again. "Megan Pham, what's going on?"? Are you willing to marry a vegetable? What do you see in him? Money? Are you so short of money? "As I said, it's a long story. Let's not talk about it first. Have you done all the things I asked you to do?" "Of course, which time did I fail to do what you told me?" Clark Greer said, taking out ten hand-drawn color pictures from his handbag. Each dish on the picture is lifelike, and the small words beside it are accurate to a few spoonfuls of cooking wine and a few grams of salt. "These are the ten new dishes I developed this time, which are guaranteed to be unique in China." I also guarantee that The View Restaurant you said can't imitate even if you want to.
