The signing of the gambling agreement is in the swift headquarters building.

On both sides of the rectangular conference table, on one side is the swift executive team headed by Lin Yize and Lin Yushu, and on the other side is the Eternal Star legal team headed by Song Qiming.

Lin Yushu's assistant put the contract of the VAM agreement in front of Song Qiming, and he handed it over to Lawyer Zhong next to him.

"You'd better take a closer look." Across the conference table, Lin Yushu reminded aloud.

Although the two parties have already confirmed the electronic version online, Lin Yushu believes that Song Qiming still needs to confirm it in person.

"I've already seen it." Unlike the legal team that was waiting in full force, Song Qiming was wearing casual clothes and leaning on the back of the chair, as if he just came here for a show.

...and too careless.

"Are you not afraid that I will bribe your lawyer?" Lin Yushu asked casually.

Accompanying Song Qiming was lawyer Zhong who was in charge of announcing Shao Zhenbang's will, and it was impossible for Lin Yushu to bribe him.

But when he said it so casually, Lawyer Zhong was taken aback, and he said quickly: "President Xiao Lin, don't talk nonsense."

Lin Yushu smiled apologetically: "Just kidding."

The two parties signed and stamped the two contracts, and within ten minutes, the gambling agreement involving billions of dollars was signed.

Lin Yize took the initiative to stand up, shook hands with Song Qiming, and personally sent Eternal Star and his party outside the meeting room.

After Song Qiming's figure completely disappeared, he sat back at the conference table and asked Lin Yushu worriedly: "If Xiao Song knows what you're planning, will he break up with you?"

Before Lin Yushu could answer, an executive next to him answered, "Isn't it normal to intrigue in business? Couples should understand each other better."

These executives all knew about the relationship between Lin Yushu and Song Qiming, and they were obviously more concerned about their own interests than discussing their gossip.

"Little Shu definitely understands Xiao Song. He wants to acquire us. Isn't Little Shu talking about it?" Lin Yize said, "I don't know if Xiao Song can understand Little Shu."

"Yes." Lin Yushu put away the documents in front of him calmly, "Don't worry."

When getting off work, Lin Yushu received a message from Song Qiming.

"Song Qiming: Come down"

"Song Qiming: I'll wait for you in the parking lot"

Lin Yushu is still a little unaccustomed to two pure text messages without Wo Wo's emoji.

He packed up the things on the desk as soon as possible, and came to the parking lot downstairs, only to see that Song Qiming was not driving a GTR today, but that fast tram.

——Almost forgot, today, Tuesday, Song Qiming's number is limited.

"Where are you going?" Lin Yushu asked, sitting in the passenger seat.

"Just follow me."

It was still bright when the two set off, but as the large electric SUV drove away from the city, it gradually darkened and street lights came on on both sides of the road.

Lin Yushu didn't ask any more questions, but judging from the route, he knew that Song Qiming was going to take him to the mountain.

Unknowingly, the street lights became sparse, and the wide urban expressways became narrow mountain roads.

The two came to the viewing platform that Lin Yushu had visited on the night of his birthday. Song Qiming parked the car at a corner of the platform, pulled out the canopy stored in the roof rack, and built a camping space with a roof on the side of the car..

Then, he used the tram for reverse power transmission, hung a night light under the roof, put up a barbecue grill, and took out various processed fresh ingredients.

"Is it cold? I brought a blanket." He squatted in front of a row of large storage boxes and said.

On the other side, Lin Yushu sat on a lounge chair, admiring the night view of the city under the moonlight from a distance, and shook his head: "It's not cold."

"That's good." Song Qiming picked up a dozen beers, opened one of them and handed it over.

Lin Yushu took a sip of the beer and asked, "Why do you want to go camping?"

"After searching on the Internet for a long time," Song Qiming sat down beside Lin Yushu, "Other methods seem a bit vulgar."

Lin Yushu laughed, and lifted the beer can towards Song Qiming.

Song Qiming touched Lin Yushu knowingly, and said, "Happy Valentine's Day, baby."

"Well, happy Valentine's Day."

Barbecuing is not difficult, just put the ingredients on the baking tray, and dip it in the dipping sauce after it is cooked.

Lin Yushu enjoyed Song Qiming's feeding, and asked leisurely, "When will you improve your cooking skills?"

"Aren't I improving all the time?" Song Qiming handed the roasted dice beef to Lin Yushu's mouth, "Open your mouth."

Lin Yushu bit into his mouth.

The night wind in early spring still carried the chill of late winter, and the treetops below the platform were shaken slightly by the wind from time to time.The moon rose high, illuminating the quiet viewing platform. Although other vehicles occasionally passed by behind, no one came to disturb the two under the night light.

Taking advantage of Song Qiming's grilling chicken wings, Lin Yushu hesitated for a long time, but decided to say it out: "These days I've been thinking, when you chased me back then, did you have some liking and calculations."

Song Qiming's hands paused.

"I know you like me, but I'm a little curious," Lin Yushu continued, "Is your relationship pure or not?"

Song Qiming didn't answer immediately, he put down the barbecue tongs unhurriedly, and picked up the beer can again: "There is something you may not know."

Hearing this, Lin Yushu's heart tightened. Could it be that Song Qiming still had something to hide from him?

"You are my first boyfriend." Song Qiming took a sip of beer, and drowned his words in the beer can as if embarrassed.

Lin Yushu thought he heard it wrong, so he asked in disbelief, "Have you never dated anyone else?"

"No." Song Qiming put down the beer can and looked into the distance, "When I was still in Germany, I found that many people around me had partners. I was looking forward to this state, so I dated many people. But after a long time, the onlyThe only thing that moved me was the car, until I met you in the car."

"...Really." Now Lin Yushu looked away embarrassedly.

"If I have to calculate even my feelings," Song Qiming turned his head and looked at Lin Yushu and said, "Then you should know what kind of people my previous dates were."

From the perspective of family background alone, Lin Yushu is indeed not the best.

If Song Qiming wanted to enrich himself in this way, he could have had a better choice.

"Hmm." Lin Yushu thought for a while and said, "It's a little persuasive."

"Just a little?"

"But if you want to acquire Swift, it still has to do with profit."

"This is something I planned a long time ago." Song Qiming said, "You are an accident beyond my plan."

"Then you haven't thought about it," Lin Yushu paused, "giving up your plan for me?"

"No." Song Qiming said, "This is a very common business practice. I sold s-power to Eternal Star, and I didn't suffer a loss. As long as we have a good talk, we can definitely achieve a win-win result. Why did you come up with it?"Are you going to give up? If you really can’t reach an agreement in the end, then it’s time to give up, isn’t it?”

"Yes." Lin Yushu took a sip of wine lightly.

If he was Song Qiming, he would not give up his plan, but he should have proposed it in a more tactful way, instead of directly asking for the acquisition like Song Qiming did, and admitting that he had this plan long ago.

Song Qiming was still too straightforward. If it were Lin Yushu, he wouldn't mention his original ulterior motives at all.

Isn't that obviously looking for draws?

So in the face of Song Qiming's frankness, Lin Yushu was indeed angry, but it was difficult for him to be very angry.

"Actually, I've been thinking these days whether this matter can't be negotiated."

The chicken wings were almost roasted, Song Qiming stopped talking, picked them up with barbecue tongs, and put them on the deli plate.

Lin Yushu waited for a long time but couldn't wait for the next sentence, and couldn't help asking: "And then?"

"Then I thought, let's just let it go if we can't reach an agreement." A piece of chicken wing was burnt and it was a bit difficult to hold. Song Qiming frowned and said, "The wife is more important."

"Oh." Seeing Song Qiming compete with the chicken wings, Lin Yushu smiled a little, "So it doesn't matter if you lose the betting agreement, right?"

"I don't like to lose." Song Qiming finally finished the chicken wing, looked at Lin Yushu and said, "But if I lose to you, I admit it."

"That's what you said," Lin Yushu said hastily, "Don't go back on your word."

Song Qiming didn't answer directly, but took out the shrimp and grilled it again: "The fox's tail is about to show, baby."

Lin Yushu smiled and said it again: "Happy Valentine's Day, baby."

Overnight, the city was dyed with fresh green, and the breath of winter could no longer be felt around.

Banners and lanterns were taken down in the community, and the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year was gone, which seemed to indicate that this terrible Spring Festival had completely passed.

Recently, the major streaming media are full of advertisements for Xunjie trams. Perhaps ordinary people don't know what happened behind this, but people in the business circle are all concerned about the gambling agreement between Xunjie and Eternal Star.

On the Eternal Star side, Shao Hedong entered retirement early due to his poor health. However, when chatting with Zhan Ting, Lin Yushu learned that Shao Hedong was still paying attention to the group's every move, and seemed to be looking for an opportunity to make a comeback.

As for Shao Guangjie, he was transferred to a management position in the factory, but he did not take up the post. It is said that he was considering starting his own business.

Lin Yushu and Song Qiming's life and work are going on in an orderly manner, and they seem to have forgotten the gambling agreement in private.

Until the end of the first quarter, April 1 came. After getting up early, the two of them tacitly did not speak, and went to their respective companies.

At 8:30 in the morning, in the conference room of the Swift headquarters building.

All executives came to work in the company ahead of time, because the data that was originally calculated on the 10th of each month has now been calculated by colleagues in the sales department working overtime.

"It's all the fault of that ×× tram. We must rush to launch new cars at this time, otherwise our sales will definitely exceed this number."

"But I have to say, if you don't look at the VAM agreement, this result is already very good."

Lin Yushu looked at the final figure in his hand: 442,000 vehicles.

The 450,000 vehicles in the agreement were not reached.

In fact, in the middle of last month, Swift's advantage was very obvious. The sales volume increased by leaps and bounds, and there was a high probability that it could reach the figure in the agreement. However, competitors chose to launch new cars at this time, which slowed down Swift's growth rate.

Just yesterday, the result of the bet was still in suspense, but now that the specific figures are out, Lin Yushu has to admit this fact——

He lost the betting agreement.

"What's next?" asked an executive, "If you ask them for peace now, will they accept it?"

"It should be." Another executive said and looked at Lin Yushu, "Mr. Lin must have a way."

Everyone followed suit, including Lin Yize: "Have you talked to Xiao Song in private?"

Lin Yushu was about to answer, but at this moment his assistant suddenly entered the conference room and said, "People from Eternal Star are here."

"So urgent? Don't give us any time to discuss."

"Of course they are in a hurry to reap the fruits of victory."

The atmosphere in the conference room was tense yet a little relaxed, but when Song Qiming and Lawyer Zhong entered, everyone stopped chatting.

"I heard that the result has come out." Song Qiming came to sit across the conference table, glanced at Lin Yushu, and said to Lin Yize.

The sales volume can be checked by the system, and there is no way to fake it. Lin Yize can only say: "Yes, it's a little short."

"It's almost bad. According to the agreement, you should transfer 5% of the shares to us." Lawyer Zhong said as he handed over several documents, "Look, I've already drawn up the contract."

Lin Yushu took over the contract and flipped through it, then pushed it back intact.

"After careful consideration," he said unhurriedly, "we have decided not to implement the conditions of the gambling agreement."

As soon as the words were spoken, all the executives of Eternal Star were watching Song Qiming's reaction, but Song Qiming's expression remained calm, but Lawyer Zhong's reaction was quite strong: "What is non-execution?"

"That's right," Lin Yushu paused, "I won't give you the 5% shares."

"Do you know that this is a breach of contract?" Lawyer Zhong frowned, "We can sue you!"

"Please go ahead." Lin Yushu said, "However, according to the minutes issued a few years ago, whether the gambling agreement between the company and the company can be implemented depends on the specific situation. In the contract we signed, the 5% given to youThe shares involved in the capital increase procedure require the approval of more than 2/3 of the company’s shareholders. Here I can make it clear that no shareholders will agree. Therefore, we will not implement it.”

"You dug a hole in the contract?!" Lawyer Zhong asked in disbelief.

VAM agreements are generally related to IPOs. There are very few VAM agreements with self-defined terms like Swift and Eternal Star, and there are not many cases of disputes.

The reason why Lin Yushu knew about the twists and turns was that Zhou Xian's friend had encountered such a thing. Zhou Xian told him about it, and he knew that such a simple agreement was full of pitfalls.

Eternal Star's legal counsel is definitely professional, but no one is familiar with all laws and all cases, let alone such a small minority.

Lin Yushu was indeed digging a hole for Song Qiming.

The size of the two companies is too different. Even if a merger is to be discussed, Xunjie will probably be passive. Therefore, he thought of such a trick. If the bet wins, the conditions for the merger are up to them. If the bet is entered,They also have nothing to lose.

In fact, they came close to winning.

Although it is a pity, it is just that everything is back to the original point.

——Of course, if it were another company, the two parties would not be able to continue the talks calmly.

Lin Yushu dared to use this kind of harm because he and Song Qiming were in a relationship.

Because in the end, if the two of them didn't have this kind of relationship, it would be an ordinary acquisition, and it wouldn't carry so many emotions.

"It's okay." Song Qiming said to Lawyer Zhong in a flat tone, "If you don't enforce it, don't enforce it. More than 440,000 vehicles are about the same as 450,000 vehicles."

"What?" Lawyer Zhong was taken aback.

"I mean, let's say they win the bet agreement." Song Qiming stood up and said to Lin Yushu, "The merger conditions are up to you."

Lin Yushu was a little surprised, and Lin Yize's surprise was directly on his face: "Huh?"

"No," Lawyer Zhong frowned, "then you—"

"My company still has something to do," Song Qiming interrupted Lawyer Zhong, "Let's go back first."

After saying this, Song Qiming strode out of the conference room. Lawyer Zhong hurriedly cleaned up his contracts, but at this moment Lin Yushu stopped him.

"Lawyer Zhong, what did you say about Song Qiming just now?"

It was obvious that there was something to say, Lin Yushu couldn't fail to see it.

"Hey, Boss Xiao Lin, you don't know." Seeing that Song Qiming had gone far away, Lawyer Zhong simply gave up chasing, and said to Lin Yushu, "We have received stocks well, and you suddenly proposed a gambling agreement.Damn. How could the shareholders of Eternal Star agree?"

Lin Yushu frowned slightly: "Then?"

"The agreement really has ghosts, I should insist on opposing—"

"Lawyer Zhong," Lin Yushu couldn't help interrupting, "How could the shareholders of Eternal Star agree?"

"Because Song Dong also gambled his identity as the chairman!" Lawyer Zhong sighed and said, "If he fails to win the bet, he will lose his job."
