Mr. Bia instinctively wanted to leave, but when he heard it was Mr. Ma speaking, he couldn't ignore the other party's face. He could only force a smile and say, "Sure, let me hear what kind of collaboration you have in mind. If it's suitable, we can give it a try, but if it isn't, then forget about it."
"First, tell me what kind of collaboration it is. I haven't heard the word 'collaboration' mentioned to me recently, probably because I haven't been managing these matters myself. Your sudden mention has left me somewhat at a loss on how to respond."
Mr. Bia didn't know what to say for a moment, and in the end, he could only respond that way. Mr. Ma, however, didn't seem to mind and waved his hand as he said, "It's not me who wants to collaborate with you, but this young man here. I think very highly of him. It's up to the two of you to discuss what's on the table."
