Before the collapse of civilization, kiss Mebius at the beginning

The two of them were so busy that they had to face each other.

"Pata."

After finishing the matter with Alicia, Xu Ziling, who came back to find his own doctor, pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the layout of the room that looked like a negotiation hall. At this moment, Mobius was looking angry, and Klein didn't dare to breathe.

And that old friend with black hair...

"Ha~"

Seeing this scene, Xu Ziling couldn't help laughing, and then walked forward very "enthusiastically", came to the side of Tianjin, patted his shoulder, and said,

"It seems that this world is quite small... Old friend (wall) friend (lamp), we meet again."

Seeing Xu Ziling's sudden intrusion, Tianjin's eyes under the sunglasses changed slightly, but soon he calmed down again, glanced at Xu Ziling's hand on his shoulder, and wisely did not ask for trouble, but changed his words and said:

"If you are willing to make friends with me on behalf of the Mobius Institute, then whether it is the identity of the Minister of Finance or the identity of the Chairman of Tianshi Group, I am very happy to make friends with you, Xu."

As soon as Tianjin's words fell, it was still familiar. It seemed an ordinary sentence, but it was not simple at all.

The confrontation half a year ago made Tianjin come to a terrifying conclusion when he looked back on it. No matter how he operated, all his chips and cards seemed to have been seen through by Xu Ziling. He didn't understand how Xu Ziling did it, but it was precisely because he didn't know that he was particularly afraid of Xu Ziling and would not easily take action unless it was absolutely necessary.

It was for this reason that Tianjin knew that he would never be able to compete with Xu Ziling in personal and private matters, as his cards had been completely seen through. Only by raising the level and shifting the topic of personal matters to collective organizations or even one party of power could he not fall behind.

Suppressing the advantages of the opponent and giving full play to one's own strengths is one of the most commonly used and practical means in the workplace.

Tianjin casually raised his conversation with Mobius and Xu Ziling to the social collective level of "Mobius Research Institute", "Fire Chaser Moth" and "Tian Group". Use the collision of forces behind each other to avoid your own shortcomings... I can only say that Tian Laodeng is worthy of being Tian Laodeng. If you are not careful, you will fall into the language trap he set for you.

Unfortunately, he met Xu Ziling.

"Little white mouse, you..."

Mobius, who had already reacted, was about to remind Xu Ziling to pay attention to the language trap set by Tianjin, when he saw Xu Ziling smiling and patting Tianjin's shoulder, and at the same time gave Mobius a confident look.

Seeing that look, Mobius was stunned.

Because Xu Ziling, who usually lived with her, had a gentle and calm look... But now, he was sharp, confident, and arrogant, but he also buried a little extreme resentment and viciousness...

The difference between this and the usual Xu Ziling cannot be said to be very big... It can only be said to be the difference between a wife and a domineering president.

The last time I saw this look was the last time... In short, this sudden change of aura made Mebius a little stunned, but after thinking for a moment, she still chose to believe the confidence that Xu Ziling gave her. After sitting down in her seat again, she held Klein's hand and watched Xu Ziling's one-man show.

"Don't say that, old friend. If we exclude the forces behind us, can we not be ourselves? If the fact is really like that, then our lives are a bit too sad, aren't they?"

After Xu Ziling chuckled, he pulled a chair and sat down next to Tianjin.

"Or is it that Minister Tian has been in a high position for a long time and no longer knows how to do his own things with his own will? I don't think so?"

"..."

Tian Jin was going to answer a few more words, but when he heard Xu Ziling's words "his own things", his sandy white pupils under his sunglasses flickered, thinking After weighing it over and over again, he slowly shook his head and changed the subject,

"As for Mr. Xu, my position in the Fire Moth Chaser is not that high... Moreover, no matter how tall you are, in essence, you are still a human being, and you can stand for a while but not forever. Occasionally, you still have to retreat from the biting cold wind... For example, now."

As he spoke, Tian Jin raised his hand and gestured to Mobius across the negotiation table, saying,

"Originally, I thought Mr. Xu would be somewhat surprised that I appeared here, just like this doctor... But now it seems that Tian is arrogant."

"It can be seen that Dr. Mobius seems to be uncomfortable with my identity as the Minister of Finance of Fire Moth... Then as you wish, the person sitting in front of you now is not 'Minister Tian', but the chairman of the board named 'Tianjin'.

You two, excluding 'councillors', I only apply for a transaction to the Mobius Research Institute represented by you as a 'businessman'... This is my sincerity, I wonder if it satisfies you two?"

Sincerity?

Hearing this, Xu Ziling raised his eyebrows.

Tianjin is willing to lower his status from the Minister of Fire Moth to the Chairman of a consortium company. This is indeed putting down his face and expressing sincerity.

But if you really want to talk about it, Tianjin is now alone in the backstage room of Tian's Hotel talking with Mobius, Xu Ziling and Klein, who is just making up the numbers, without any bodyguards, which can actually be regarded as a kind of sincerity.

However, Xu Ziling didn't believe that Tianjin, a man standing at the top of the world's power, would really not have any means of defense. Maybe a killer is secretly spying on him. Or Tianjin's black suit will reveal a body full of high-tech weapons once it is taken off.

Even if he puts aside everything about the other party and only looks at Tianjin's face that is extremely similar to the dog boss before the time travel, Xu Ziling doesn't believe that he is the kind of person who will really put in "sincerity" in the transaction.

The so-called sincerity has never been how much one party is willing to show, but how much both parties are willing to accept.

"Transaction? ... Ha, the Tianshi Group is a world-renowned top consortium, and its chairman's schedule should not be easy, right? The doctor and I are just ordinary clerks, so we should not let Mr. Tian make a big trip, right?"

Since Tianjin was willing to lower his status, Xu Ziling did not need to mention the other party's identity as the head of the Finance Department. Instead, he followed the other party's words and said,

"If Mr. Tian wants to make a deal with the institute, I am personally very happy... But the doctor and I are not going out for a leisurely outing, but for business. If Mr. Tian does not intend to deal with the principle of official business, please leave later... Of course, I am just a subordinate of the institute, and my words are not important. If Mr. Tian really thinks that his sincerity can impress the doctor, he might as well speak frankly."

"..."

Hearing this, Tianjin felt a little depressed.

Xu Ziling called him "Mr. Tian" all the time, which seemed quite respectful on the surface. Only Tianjin, who was caught by him, knew how insulting the respectful title was.

Provocation, insult, contempt, even control and threat... Tianjin felt that he might really be a bad guy, otherwise how could he be hated by the so-called leader right from the start? It was tit-for-tat everywhere.

Tianjin admitted that he had indeed targeted Mobius's research institute, but that was many years ago, and most of the other members of the Fire Moth had done similar things... But the guy in front of him seemed to have only "cared for" himself.

Of course, why did Xu Ziling do this, Tianjin would probably never understand until his death... Because Xu Ziling's hatred and targeting of this "old friend" was purely because of Tianjin's face, purely because Tianjin was a flower similar to that man.

You can say Xu Ziling is shameless and angry, but you can't deny that it feels really good to see the boss Wuliang who once exploited him repeatedly suffer in his hands.

And Tianjin really can't do anything about it.

After all, he lacks too much information. And Xu Ziling can see through all his chips and cards. If he can't bring the topic to the table, then the fight between him and Xu Ziling is doomed to fail before it even starts.

"..."

After sighing silently in his heart, Tianjin found that he could only turn into a protective star god and endure it again and again, so he said,

"Xu, I will remember your "friend"... Now, I will follow your wishes and get back to the point - "Draft of the Cooperation Project between Tianshi Group and Mobius Institute."

As he said, Tianjin stretched out his hand and pointed to the documents placed on the negotiation table in front of him.

Xu Ziling said without even looking at it:

"It's missing... Mr. Tian, ​​maybe it's your personal habit to only convey half of the information, but it's not a good habit. If you really want to express your sincerity, you should change these bad habits."

The reason why Xu Ziling said this was, of course, because he saw Mobius's angry face when he entered the door. If it was just Tianshi Group and the research institute,

The doctor should not show such excitement about the cooperation with the institute, and at most he would just reject it coldly.

Therefore, Xu Ziling was sure that Tianjin must have made some excessive demands to make his doctor so angry.

"..."

After hearing Xu Ziling's words, Tianjin was silent for a moment, and the feeling of being targeted became deeper. He frowned slightly, looked at Xu Ziling, and slowly said,

"Xu, do you think there is a possibility... Some information is not that I didn't explain clearly. It's just that you interrupted me before I had time to speak?"

Hearing this, Xu Ziling was stunned. It seemed that he did go too far, so he coughed tactically and said without blushing or panting.

"Mr. Tian should show less flaws, otherwise he will be very distressed when he meets some people who like to interrupt naturally?"

"..."

Tian Jin was speechless.

"Hahaha~"

Looking at Tianjin's frustrated expression, Mobius, who was sitting across from the negotiation table, couldn't help laughing. The previous resentment was swept away. She stood up and walked to Xu Ziling and said,

"I didn't expect that the eldest son of Shenzhou Tianshi would also show such an expression...Hahaha~Little white mouse, let me tell you what this guy didn't finish saying."

Immediately, Mobius roughly recounted what he had experienced after he and Klein parted with Xu Ziling and Alicia in the seminar hall.

Originally, everything went smoothly. Mobius found the backbone of the Finance Department who was responsible for evaluating the investment value of scientific projects at the seminar. He was ready to throw out the card of the body strengthening reagent developed by combining Xu Ziling's blood cells with Honkai energy, using the body strengthening as a bargaining chip in exchange for a huge amount of research funds from the institute and a new deterrent to the parliamentarians.

But I never thought that the person responsible for the value assessment of the scientific project of this seminar was Tianjin...

To be precise, Tianjin came here to wait for Mobius.

As soon as they met, he took out a draft of the cooperation project between Tianshi Group and Mobius Research Institute. The general meaning can be understood as establishing a non-aggression treaty. Tianshi Group will provide the institute with sufficient funds forever, and Mobius will give priority to selling his research results on collapse to Shenzhou.

This is normal, because half a year has passed since the outbreak of the Great Collapse in Changkong City. Almost all scientists under the Fire Chaser Moth are in an extremely worrying state of research on collapse. As the most authoritative representative of the current biological world, Mobius is undoubtedly the person who is most likely to make a research breakthrough. It is reasonable that Tianjin will come to bet... However, it is likely that he came after his own scientific research team's research on collapse was not good enough. Otherwise, Tianjin would not have waited until half a year after the outbreak of the collapse in Changkong City before coming.

If it was just like this, Mobius actually had no reason to refuse Tianjin, because... Tianjin really gave too much. And her research results must be sold. As long as it does not affect her experiments, it doesn't matter who she sells to.

But when Mobius took out the body strengthening reagent...Tian Jin was like a different person.

Mobius knew how attractive the body strengthening reagent was to these big shots, but...how dared this guy to directly buy his "technology"?

Selling results and selling technology, the difference between the two words, the internal meaning is already very different.

This move also successfully angered Mobius. Weapons can only play a deterrent role when held in one's own hands. Tianjin actually wanted to buy the "weapon" she used to deter the fire moth? Is this guy crazy?

So there was the scene of Mobius and Tianjin arguing when Xu Ziling entered the door.

"Acquiring technology..."

Xu Ziling rubbed his chin, and his eyes turned admiring when he looked at Tianjin. He smiled,

"I never thought that the chairman of the Tianshi Group would have such ambitions. If this matter gets out, those who are on equal footing with you should come to you for a good talk, right? Mr. Tian?"

"..."

In response, Tianjin's sandy white pupils flickered slightly, and he muttered to himself,

"In fact... it doesn't have to be 'technology'..."

Then, Tianjin calmed down his emotions, looked straight at Xu Ziling and Mobius, and said:

"Since Assistant Xu has already said that we should speak openly... then I will be frank, you two, what I need is not the 'technology' of physical enhancement, but I need you to prove to me that this technology is 'non-toxic'. For this, I am willing to bet everything I have... or nothing."
