A total of three staff Christie's came, their purpose is no different from those of Sotheby's, they are come for those high-value antique works of art.
And the answers they get are the same as those of their colleagues who left before.
Ye Tian doesn't consider sending out those top antique artworks for the time being. Everything will be discussed when the New York spring auction starts.
After these people left, it was lunch time.
Ye Tian did not leave the Rockefeller Center, but took Betty to the Rainbow Restaurant on the 65th floor.
There someone can enjoy the most beautiful scenery in Manhattan, and can also taste the best food in New York and even the United States.
Sitting at the table in the Rainbow Restaurant, not only can you overlook the entire Manhattan, you can also admire the huge Christmas tree downstairs in Rockefeller Center Plaza anytime, anywhere, and feel the Christmas atmosphere!
Of course, the seats here need to be reserved! And the price is very high, especially during the Christmas period!
On the day the company was established, Ye Tian had already reserved seats.
Dining in such a beautiful and charming environment is naturally extremely time consuming!
When Ye Tian and Betty finished their lunch from the Rainbow Restaurant and returned to the company, someone had been waiting in the company conference room for a long time.
"Matisse, why the two bosses of Raytheon Security Company come to our company? It seems that we don't need to settle the security expenses in person? Do you know their purpose?"
Ye Tian asked in a low voice as he walked to the meeting room.
"I don't know the specific reason. Who knows why these two old guys are here? But you have to be careful. These are two old foxes. They are very cunning, and they are not good!"
Matisse was also confused, but he still reminded Ye Tian, his expression somewhat solemn.
He came from the Raytheon Security Company, and naturally knew the strength of this company very well. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is a behemoth and a terrifying monster!
And the most frightening thing about this security company is their inextricable connections with the US military. It can even be said that the US military is behind this security company!
"I know how to respond, don't worry!"
Ye Tian responded, then pushed the door and walked into the meeting room.
At this time, there were six people in the conference room besides Jason.
The two old white men in their sixties should be the bosses of Raytheon Security Company. They sat there with their waists hunched. They were of military origin, and they have been in the top positions for a long time. They have a kind of aura of not anger and prestige!
There is also a middle-aged white man in his forties in a suit and leather shoes. His appearance is meticulous and he appears to be very smart and capable. From the analysis of his dress and temperament, he is a lawyer in all likelihood.
The other three stood behind the two old men, all dressed in hunting suits, each with a big waist, a sturdy appearance, a sharp edge, and a bit of murderousness. They should all be retired special forces who have seen blood!
Needless to say, these people must be bodyguards.
After entering the door and taking a quick glance, Ye Tian immediately grasped the general situation of the conference room.
Through the perspective, he also found the pistols under the armpits of the three bodyguards. Even the two old white men had their pistols in their backs. It was really not a good thing!
The only one without a weapon is the guy who is suspected of being a lawyer!
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian had already increased his vigilance unconsciously, and Matisse who followed him into the meeting room had also increased his vigilance somewhat.
Because some time ago, he always practiced at the training ground of Raytheon Security Company. For the three bodyguards in front of him, Ye Tian was somewhat familiar, although he could not be named.
As for the old men and the lawyer, he had never seen them.
While he was observing each other, these guys from Raytheon Security Company were also observing him.
This is Steven? That famous super lucky guy! And a cruel and ruthless guy who will be reported to Hell! It doesn't seem to be anything special!
Between two or three steps, Ye Tian had already walked across the conference table.
Immediately afterwards, Matisse began to introduce the two sides.
"This is Steven, the chairman of the Brave and Fearless Exploration Company, and my boss; this is Davis, the president of Raytheon Security Company; this is Wilson, the general manager of Raytheon's daily operations,..."
While Matisse introduced, Ye Tian smiled and stretched out his right hand to the opposing people.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen, Merry Christmas! Welcome to the Brave and Fearless Exploration Company. It is a pleasure to meet you here. It is a great honor!"
"Steven, good afternoon, and a merry Christmas to you. We are also very happy to meet you. This exploration company is great and pleasing to the eye!"
Several people on the opposite side shook hands with Ye Tian to greet them, and sent a few beautiful words, they were very friendly!
"Thank you, for the several gentlemen's praises! I'm just a small company, and it is incomparable with a company with deep background like Raytheon Security!"
Ye Tian said a few words politely, and then sat down.
After chatting a few words of nonsense such as weather and Christmas, Ye Tian began to ask the guys who were on the opposite side.
"Gentlemen, I don't know what you are doing in my little treasure hunting company today? If it is to settle security expenses, it doesn't seem to be necessary for such a big battle, right? Just make a phone call!"
Hearing this question from him, the few guys on the other side stopped circling around.
After a moment of hesitation, Davis opened his mouth to clarify his intentions.
"Steven, although your exploration company is small in size, it has outstanding performance. The first treasure hunt was a huge harvest, which brought a huge tsunami to the field of antique art collection!
We are very optimistic about the prospects of your company. Therefore, Raytheon Security intends to become a shareholder of your company. What do you think of it?"
When Davis said the last setence, although he used interrogative sentences, his tone was very firm, and he was bound to win!
This bunch of bastards really didn't hold their greed!
Seeing that he is making a fortune, these bastards are obviously jealous, and they want to get a piece of the pie, and even cut the biggest piece of cake, thinking too badly!
If you want to pick some pieces here, let you dream! No doors!
Ye Tian murmured frantically to himself, and instantly saw through the ugly faces of the guys on the opposite side!
There was hardly any hesitation, he immediately rejected the other party, his tone was categorical, beyond any doubt.
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Davis. Although my exploration company is small, it has never been short of money. There are sufficient funds in the bank account and the company is operating normally.
I never thought of introducing foreign capital, not now, nor in the future! So I can only refuse you, but I still want to thank you for your favor. I feel very honored!"
Hearing this categorical refusal, the faces of the people on the opposite side immediately changed and became quite ugly, like seeing a dead father!
They anticipated that Ye Tian might refuse, and no one wanted to be share treasures! But they never expected that the refuse so simply and without leaving any room!
After a short pause, Davis said with a black face and solemnly:
"Steven, I hope you will consider it carefully before making a decision. Don't refuse so quickly. You should also understand the strength of our Raytheon Security Company!
If we become the shareholders of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company, we will certainly greatly enhance the strength of your company and make your development faster and smoother, without any harm!"
Ye Tian chuckled lightly, and then the answer was still firmly refused.
"Yes! I do know something about Raytheon Security Company, knowing that it is a very powerful security company with a very deep background, and it can be called a behemoth.
But so what? What does it have to do with me? I was tossing in my own one-acre three-cents of land, and I was able to eat with my skills, and earning more and less is my own. I am very satisfied with this state! No intention to change!"
The faces of the people on the opposite side became even more ugly, with purple in the black, staring at Ye Tian angrily one by one, spitting fire out!
But Ye Tian ignored them at all, and continued:
"So far, the cooperation between us has gone smoothly. I hired your security personnel that give you the highest commission in the security company industry, as well as very generous bonuses. Isn't that great?
You may not know me very well. Ever since I was kicked out of Wall Street, I have sworn that I will never work for others in this life, and live without looking at other people's faces!
Therefore, it is impossible for me to agree to your request for equity participation. No matter what the future development of this exploration company is, even if it goes bankrupt, I will not introduce any foreign capital!"
