Super Emperor System

Chapter 26 - The Successful Negotiation

In the next three days, James was busy handling the post-auction issue and attending many parties. There was also a more critical issue! Recently, around his estate, there often reporters lurking around. Although he knew the reason for that, it already seriously hindered his mobility issue.

The only relief was his reputation value continued to skyrocket, and he wouldn't stay in London for long. After three days, the meeting was held back at Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

"Your Majesty, this is our proposal." Song Hailiang, the CEO of CCCC, handed a paper to James respectfully. Then, one after another, all the CEOs handed over their proposal to James.

James then began to review the proposal one by one assisted by his assistant, Zhou Li. Zhou Li was the son of Zhou Huang, and he was very competent as he served as his father's assistant before, and he was very loyal too!

The meeting room was silent as everyone waited for the result. Although all of them was the CEO of their respective company, their status was a far cry from James. Moreover, James was their potential gold master. To pass the time, most people chose to review their proposal again to see whether there was something wrong, even if there wasn't!

After one hour of an in-depth review, James already mastered all of the proposals. With his high-speed computing brain, he already made a decision. He cleared his throat to draw everyone's attention.

"I already grasp the situation, and already make the decision." James said. Everyone more or less dropped a sweat as they were nervous right now.

"As everyone already knows, my Kingdom infrastructure is very backward! So after my careful decision, I decided to employ all of you! For those who construct which, it's based at the indicator stated by your proposal. The completion time and quality is my most crucial indicator!

I don't care how much cost it takes, as long you can guarantee the fastest completion date and the highest quality! So, I give you two hours if any of you want to renew the proposal." James said.

Everyone stupefied as this was outside of their expectations. Earlier when they made the proposal, most of them emphasize the cost, the cheaper, the better. But now since James already said he didn't care about price, as long it was the fastest and the highest quality, they knew they must renew their proposal!

"Your Majesty, I excuse myself first." Thomas, the CEO of STRABAG, stood up. He was just a CEO and couldn't arbitrarily change the proposal. Most people chose to leave as they need to discuss it with their shareholders first.

There was only three people that stayed in the room with James. 2 middle-aged Chinese man, and 1 German old man. These three people were holding the absolute control of their company, so they could change their proposal without discussing with others.

In the meantime, as he waited, James took out his phone and opened a mobile game. In another two hours, the meeting resumed. After another three hours of reviewing and discussion, James already reached cooperation with most of the people here.

As his vision for the Kingdom was far-away, James wanted the best infrastructure. As he already specified the cost wasn't considered, most people gave an unbelievable proposal.

PowerChina undertook the project for the installation of all electricity facility for the whole Kingdom. They gave $4 Billion costs, and guarantee to complete within one year. They didn't construct any type of power generator though, as James already had a better option for it. They would coordinate with other construction companies later.

China CCCC undertook the project for the construction of the road for the whole Kingdom. As James already gave a complete plan, they directly gave an estimation price. $17 Billion and guarantee to complete within two years. They would also coordinate with other construction companies later.

China CSCE undertook the project for the Lannister Internation Airport. As James felt the airport was the first impression for the future tourist, he wanted the best of it. So he took the best design from System, and he didn't care how much it cost.

The whole airport complex cost $21 Billion, and the phase one completion date was within one year and eight months. This airport would surpass Istanbul and Beijing Daxing airport as the biggest single terminal airport. After phase one was complete, it could handle 100 million passengers a year.

German Hochtief undertook the project for the port. If the port were completed, its scale would rank among the top 3 of the world. It cost estimation of $5 Billion and a completion date within one year. They also took the project for one-third of the industrial zone for $3 Billion and a completion date within one year.

Sweden STRABAG undertook the project of the remaining of the industrial zone for $6 Billion and a completion date within one year. They also took the construction of a basic amenities facility for another $2 Billion.

France VINCI undertook.....

-------------

Basically, nine of the world's top ten construction companies were contracted by James! Moreover, all of this construction was only considered as phase one of the Kingdom! James already envisioned phase two, phase three, or even phase four!

With the black technology in the System Mall and the System help, James already drew a rough plan for the future of his Kingdom. The negotiation went smoothly, and everyone satisfied as they had their share.

The only problem was the cost! The estimated cost of phase one totaled almost $100 Billion, and it would only more, not less! His cash was only $45 Billion, and he must find another source of income soon, or he couldn't support the construction. Of course, a loan was an option, but unless it was indispensable, he didn't want to do it.

But, the money James had should support for some time, and he could find a way to earn money by then. As this was a big project that amounted at $1 Billion units, the signing of the contract would be held tomorrow by each other legal party. James and the construction companies only reached a verbal agreement by now.

With the successful negotiation, all the party left the hotel with a satisfied expression on their face. James also went back to his estate as he must discuss the result of the negotiation with his subordinate.
