10am. Mo Ting arranged for the representatives from Switzerland to to stay in a hotel near Hai Rui. The 3 men and 2 women seemed a bit annoyed by the trip.
"Didn't we already avoid having to work with Tang Corps? The CEO is currently missing, so there is no way to continue with our collaboration. There are plenty of big companies waiting to work with us, why did the Boss insist for us to come to Beijing?" one of the representatives said in a puzzled tone as he sat on the sofa.
"Did you think you are the only one that doesn't understand? We had to come all the way to this hell hole, where even the air is hazy."
"Endure for a bit. We can leave after we meet with them."
They each tidied up their stuff and followed a hotel staff to one of the hotel's meeting rooms. However, as they arrived, they did not see the CEO of Hai Rui nor did they see Tangning.
"What is this all about? Why isn't a representative from Tang Corps here to greet us?"
