Chapter 147 No, you actually cleared it?
γ Dialing... γ
At this moment, no one spoke, and the comments also became sparse.
Suspicion, curiosity, anticipation, watching the show... Various emotions mixed together, making the air seem thick and stagnant.
Most people felt in their hearts that this must be the Streamer creating content again.
That number was likely made up, or he was simply calling a friend to put on a staged act.
...
Li Jiajun himself appeared calm as a cucumber on the surface.
He leaned back in his boss chair, a smirk of amusement on his face, seemingly enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.
He had absolute confidence in the result he had realized through his epiphany.
The number could not be wrong.
The only question now was whether this busy big shot would answer a call from an unknown number.
If the other party didn't answer, or hung up immediately, then the act he had been putting on all day would be completely wasted.
' I can't lose face in front of hundreds of thousands of people. ' A thought flashed through his mind.
' What should I say when it connects? Get straight to the point, or make some small talk first? Forget it, I'll see how he reacts first. '
Just as he was quickly calculating his opening line in his heart.
" Beep... beep... "
The monotonous dialing tone suddenly stopped.
The call was connected.
A faint static sound came from the receiver, followed immediately by the voice of a middle-aged man.
The voice was calm and steady, yet carried the aura of someone who had long held a high position, clear and distinct.
" Hello, who is this? "
The voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to drill into the ears of everyone in the live stream.
All the Netizens felt their scalps tingle upon hearing this voice.
Although the vast majority had never heard Mr. Wang speak, the steadiness, confidence, and sense of control in this voice matched their imagination of a business tycoon perfectly!
After a brief silence, the comments exploded!
" Holy crap!!! "
" Damn! Damn! This voice... definitely a big shot! Can't be wrong! "
" I've heard an interview with Mr. Wang on a financial channel documentary before! It's this voice! Exactly the same! "
" It... it actually got through? Is the Streamer a goddamn wizard?! "
" Cyber fortune-telling! This is real cyber fortune-telling! I'm impressed, completely impressed! "
" I'm watching the live stream, my dad asked why I'm kneeling, I told him I'm watching a god make a phone call! "
Upon hearing that voice, the corners of Li Jiajun's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
It worked!
He suppressed his joy, cleared his throat, and tried to make his own voice sound equally steady and professional.
He wanted the other party to feel that they were communicating with a partner capable of an equal dialogue, not a door-to-door salesman.
" Mr. Wang, hello, I am Li Jiajun from the Li Family Toy Factory in Baishui City. "
The other end of the line was silent for a few seconds.
Those few seconds of silence caused the just-boiling atmosphere in the live stream to cool down again.
The Netizens' hearts were in their throats.
" It's over, it's over, I feel like Mr. Wang doesn't know the Streamer. "
" Obviously, a big shot is busy with a thousand things, how would he know the director of a small toy factory. "
" The Streamer is about to get hung up on, a massive social suicide scene is coming. "
Sure enough, Mr. Wang's voice, carrying a hint of confusion, sounded again. Although his tone was polite, it revealed a sense of detachment.
" Li Family Toy Factory? Li Jiajun? Don't know you, you've got the wrong number. "
After speaking, Li Jiajun could even hear the friction sound of the other party preparing to take the phone away from his ear through the receiver.
' I'm about to be hung up on! '
This thought flashed through Li Jiajun's mind.
But he didn't panic at all.
He knew he only had one chance.
At this moment, his brain spun rapidly, tossing aside all the prepared speeches, leaving only the most critical few sentences.
Almost at the last second before the other party hung up, he spoke at extreme speed, leaving no room for rebuttal:
" Mr. Wang, don't be in such a hurry to hang up! "
" I know Express Delivery Company is currently facing a bottleneck. Air transport capacity costs are high, and labor costs are increasing year by year. Especially those remote areas in the Southwest mountains and Northwest plateaus, they have always been a thorn in your side! "
" Do you want to use a method that costs only one-tenth of air transport to solve the high-value cargo transportation problem for the last 500 kilometers? "
After Li Jiajun finished this long string of words, he felt a bit dry-mouthed himself.
He held his breath, waiting for the judgment from the other end of the phone.
These words were the core conclusion he had reached after studying the financial reports and public information of Express Delivery Company over the past few days.
The success of Express Delivery Company lay in its speed, but its future was also constrained by the high costs and coverage blind spots brought about by that speed.
This was the fatal weakness of Express Delivery Company, and also the problem that gave Mr. Wang the most headache right now.
The other end of the line fell into silence once again.
But this silence was completely different from before.
Before, it was confusion and impatience. This time, it was shock.
Li Jiajun could even hear the sound of the other party suppressing their breathing through the receiver, but the sound was still a bit rapid.
For Mr. Wang, the operational pain points of Express Delivery Company were the group's top secret.
These issues were only repeatedly brought up in closed-door board meetings; most external analysis reports just scratched the surface.
He couldn't figure out how a young man he had never met, who claimed to be a toy factory director, could be so accurate on the phone, practically poking right into his heart.
This was no longer business analysis; it was as if someone had been eavesdropping under his bed for years.
Although the Netizens in the live stream couldn't hear Mr. Wang's inner thoughts, they could smell something unusual from this long silence and the gradually confident expression on Li Jiajun's face.
" Why is there no sound? Is Mr. Wang stunned by the Streamer's analysis? "
" Damn, the Streamer is awesome! With this analytical ability, it'd be a waste for him to just be a brokerage analyst! "
" A business negotiation genius! He grasped the key points in just a few sentences; I give this move full marks! "
" The Main Streamer not only makes torture devices, but also does business diagnostics? An all-around talent? "
The other end of the line remained silent.
At this moment, everyone was anticipating to the extreme.
