Cosmic-Level Demon God

"Long time no see, Mr. Qin. It looks like my eyes did not deceive me; you have indeed shown talent and potential that surprised everyone!"

An Jingchu smiled gracefully.

"I was fortunate to gain the appreciation of a few teachers and happened to perform well."

Qin Shi sat down, then promptly asked the attendant for a cup of red tea.

"Miss An, what brings you to this special train?"

An Jingchu also chose red tea and softly brushed a strand of hair from her ear before replying:

"Yuan Energy Company is set up in Central City. I am in charge of an overseas project on mineral vein exploration. After completing the nearby mapping, I hopped on this special train to return to Central City for debriefing."

Qin Shi remained noncommittal, his intuition telling him that every seemingly coincidental encounter was meticulously orchestrated.

He smiled:

"It seems we are quite fated to meet."

An Jingchu took a light sip of her tea and said:

"The offer I extended before still stands, and the terms will be even more generous. As an emerging company, Yuan Energy urgently needs an outstanding spokesperson like you, Mr. Qin, to be our public image."

This was within Qin Shi's expectations; he had looked into Yuan Energy Company and knew it was indeed very capable.

Compared to the branch offices of giants in Heng Province, like United Pharmaceutical, it was only slightly inferior.

"I'm sorry, Miss An. I cannot make this decision myself. I am currently a supernova in the Tai'an Metropolitan Area. If you want to discuss commercial collaboration, you can contact Miss Lin Yunqing from Qiguang Heng University; she will handle it for me."

Qin Shi shook his head.

"It's not a commercial collaboration, just unilateral sponsorship."

An Jingchu blinked, revealing a hint of charm.

"Running a company is not charity; there must be some benefit, right? Miss An, I am still a minor, and selling myself is illegal."

Qin Shi shrugged, teasingly.

He did not believe in unconditional sponsorship or altruistic help.

"If you must put it that way, let's say I hope you, Mr. Qin, can see our sincerity."

An Jingchu candidly said:

"I believe that in business, sincerity often matters most. When sincerity is present, everything can be negotiated; when it is absent, no price can make up for it."

What a formidable negotiator.

Qin Shi leaned back, no longer sitting so stiffly:

"Am I really worth so much 'sincerity' from your company?"

An Jingchu nodded:

"To be honest, Mr. Qin, your potential value in our company's assessment system almost overwhelmingly surpasses other talents in Heng Province. Even across all major administrative regions of Dongxia, you stand out."

Qin Shi remained calm, not swayed by the flattery.

He got to the point:

"So, what can your company offer me?"

An Jingchu's lips curved slightly. It wasn't easy to bring the conversation to this point; this Mr. Qin was not the kind of person who lets others lead the conversation.

"We can apply for a test qualification for you on the Grand Cosmos Server."

Qin Shi was somewhat surprised.

Yuan Energy Company could obtain access to the Grand Cosmos Server?

That was a 'foundation' only possessed by super corporations and superpowers!

"And the price?"

Qin Shi asked again.

"We hope that once you enter the specialized domain, you could fight in one battle on behalf of Yuan Energy Company."

An Jingchu didn't avoid the topic, speaking directly:

"Yuan Energy Company has some conflicts of interest with United Pharmaceutical. According to the general commercial laws of Dongxia, we choose a relatively simple way to resolve this commercial dispute."

Resolving business conflicts through fights?

Qin Shi mused.

Indeed, quite straightforward!
