Chapter 431
After suffering a hacker attack, the Vanguard Corporation's intranet had completely crashed, and the entire company worked overtime on the weekend.
The bidding meeting for Watertown had also been postponed to this afternoon.
Haley walked into the lobby and saw the staff busy setting up the venue, which was more grand and solemn than before...
"Haley, this way, please."
The manager in charge of coordination led Haley toward the conference room.
The conference room door opened. A dozen staff members sat around the round table. The person sitting in the main seat, who was wearing a silver mask, exuded a powerful presence.
"Mr. Zephyr, Haley has arrived," the coordinating manager respectfully reported, signaling for Haley to enter the conference room.
Haley's lips formed a faint smile. "Hello, Mr. Zephyr."
Sterling Hawk pointed to the closest seat next to him, saying, "Please have a seat."
Haley calmly walked over. Ariana pulled up a chair and sat down behind Haley.
Being so close to Sterling made Ariana inexplicably nervous, and her palms became sweaty. However, when she saw Haley’s composed face, she calmed down and began to record the proceedings calmly with a pen in her notebook.
"I'm sure you’ve already guessed why we’re having this meeting today, Haley," Sterling said calmly, his gaze falling on Haley.
Haley replied with a calm expression. "Is it about the chip design proposal?"
"You're right," Sterling said, pushing the documents forward. "Your proposed concept is good, but it needs to be rougher. Many details are too abstract, which makes it difficult for us to determine whether this proposal is just an idea or if you can actually build the ideal framework described in the proposal. "
Haley spoke calmly. "The framework of the design proposal is complete and flawless. My initial idea has actually been materialized. However, due to limited time, I couldn't provide any specific details."
Sterling's lips curved with interest. "Three months is not a short time."
This bidding conference had been announced six months in advance, and the specific bidding details were made public three months ago. If Haley could submit a proposal like this after three months, it would only mean that she was less outstanding than he imagined. However, she was indeed superior to most people.
"Mr. Zephyr, three months ago, the Star Technical Company had not yet been established, and we were not involved in the preparation of your bidding conference," Ariana spoke up boldly. "In fact, Haley only started working on this proposal during the morning of the last bidding conference day, and it took her about five hours..."
Sterling squinted his eyes.
Everyone else in the meeting room was also shocked.
"It only took her five hours to produce that proposal?"
"The proposal's framework is rough, but it’s complete. How was it possible for her to write it in just five hours?"
"I heard that Haley graduated from Harvard, so maybe she could do it."
"But it's still unbelievable that she did it in five hours..."
Sterling casually flipped through the proposal book and lightly said, "How much time will you need to perfect the details, Haley?"
Haley pondered and replied, "I usually leave the details to our company's staff, and it would take about three days to complete."
Sterling nodded approvingly and gestured to his secretary behind him. "Is the contract ready? Bring it over for Haley to sign."
Two copies of the contract were placed in front of Haley. She casually flipped through it; it was a typical business cooperation agreement with standard terms and no overly harsh clauses. Thus, she quickly signed her name.
