Chapter 594 Ma Fei's Big Move
"Haha, Mr. Ma, what you call sincerity isn't what you asked us to pay you 100 million yuan in compensation, right?"
A hint of sarcasm appeared on Lu Feng's face.
"If you came here in person today to get me to agree to these two conditions, then I can only tell you that you came here in vain."
"I will never agree to the two conditions Ding Rusong put forward. Even if it means destroying Hami and even all my businesses, I will stick to it to the end."
There was an immense insistence in his voice, causing Ma Tian to frown.
"Mr. Lu, is one hundred million important to you? You should know that if we continue fighting, the losses will be even greater."
Ma Tian asked in confusion.
"Mr. Ma, you should know that this is not a matter of money, it's a matter of attitude and face."
"One hundred million is not a lot for me, but if I really pay it, how will I survive in the internet industry? And how will others view Hami?"
Lu Feng immediately retorted, just like he said, one hundred million may be a lot for others, but in his hands it is actually not much different from one hundred yuan.
But things have come to this point, it is no longer a question of money, but a question of face.
Does Tengfei need this 100 million? Obviously, he does not need it. This 100 million is a drop in the bucket for Tengfei.
But why do they still need Hami to pay the 100 million in compensation? They just want to save their face with this 100 million in compensation.
But if Hami compensates Tengfei with the 100 million yuan, and Tengfei says that he has saved face, how will outsiders view Hami?
Others will definitely look down on Hami and continue to belittle it.
No matter what industry it is in, as long as a company has a bad reputation, it will never succeed.
Facing Lu Feng's question, Ma Fei knew this truth.
It was precisely because he understood this truth that he wanted to try to persuade Lu Feng.
"Mr. Lu, I understand what you mean, but I also hope you can understand me. The world only sees the glorious side of Tengfei, but they don't realize how much pressure Tengfei faces as the leader in the internet industry."
"I'm not asking for 100 million yuan in compensation because I really want Mr. Lu to compensate us. In fact, Mr. Lu should also understand that this is just Tengfei trying to get a way out of Mr. Lu."
Ma Fei persuaded earnestly, with sincere emotion on his face.
It’s a pity that his tricks work on others, but Lu Feng doesn’t fall for it at all.
Now he knows how to bow his head. What did he do in the first place? If the people who took off at the time had not been so arrogant, Lu Feng would not be so angry.
"Mr. Ma, of course I understand what you mean, but your Tengfei's face is face, so does it mean that I, Lu, don't care about face?"
"Yes, your Tengfei family is big and powerful, and you have a lot of face, but I want to tell you that small people also have small faces, so I cannot agree to your company's request."
Seeing that Lu Feng was still determined, Ma Fei was really troubled. He frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:
"Mr. Lu, since you're so insistent, I'll take a step back. You publicly compensate Tengfei 100 million. This will give Tengfei a way out and maintain Tengfei's reputation."
"And I will personally provide you with 1 billion yuan out of my own pocket. This way, you won't suffer any actual loss, and this matter can be properly resolved."
When Lu Feng heard this, he sneered and said, "Mr. Ma, you should also know my net worth. I'm worth nearly one trillion. Do I need this ten billion?"
"Mr. Ma, this isn't about money; it's a matter of principle from the beginning to the end. If I compromise easily today, what will I do if others follow Tengfei's example and bully me unreasonably? If I can't stick to my bottom line, how can I stand in this business world in the future?"
"Besides, Tengfei relied on his wealth and power to arbitrarily set compensation conditions. Now he wants to get rid of me with such a small favor. This is really underestimating me, Lu Feng."
Ma Fei was silent for a moment, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes. He slowly said, "Mr. Lu, since you feel that 1 billion yuan is not enough to impress you, then I will offer you another sincere condition."
"If you agree to publicly compensate Tengfei 100 million, I can give you Qingyaju. You should know that the construction of Qingyaju, including the land, cost a total of more than 2 billion."
"You only need to pay 100 million to get 1 billion in cash plus a luxurious residence. This is an extremely cost-effective deal from any perspective."
However, Lu Feng still shook his head firmly and said seriously, "Mr. Ma, this is not about money at all. I, Lu Feng, always have my own principles and bottom line."
"I will not compromise on this matter for any material gain."
"What I want is fairness and respect, not a transaction measured by money."
“Qingyaju is indeed luxurious, but it cannot make up for my persistence in principles.”
Listening to Lu Feng's words, Ma Fei couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration in his heart.
Just as he said, the conditions he offered were already extremely generous. This was not just tens of millions or hundreds of millions, but more than 3 billion.
You have to know that many groups cannot earn that much money in ten or twenty years.
Lu Feng only needs to nod his head, and he doesn't even have to pay the 100 million to get so much. Not to mention ordinary people, even those billionaires with a net worth of hundreds of billions would be tempted when faced with such conditions.
But Lu Feng directly refused, as if this was not more than 3 billion, but more than 30 yuan.
"Mr. Lu, I come here to discuss this with you with great sincerity. Please think carefully about it, okay?"
Ma Fei held his forehead, looking helpless.
This was the first time he had seen a tough guy like Lu Feng. If it were in the past, he would have slapped him to death. How could he have traveled all the way to the Magic City to discuss peace talks in person?
But there are too many big guys standing behind Lu Feng, which makes many of his methods useless.
Lu Feng cannot use those despicable means, and he cannot use them either, unless he doesn't want to stay in China anymore.
His head ached when he thought about how Lu Feng was so young but had so many forces behind him.
You have to know that Tengfei has been operating for so long and has only just reached this level, and that was after paying a lot of price.
However, Lu Feng achieved in less than a year what took Tengfei decades to do.
Comparing the two sides, it seems as if Tengfei has been living a dog's life for all these years.
