Luo Si thought she must have misheard.
She confirmed, "Did you say to inform An Hao?"
"Yes," An Nuan nodded and handed the plan to Luo Si. "Keep the plan with you. If An Hao asks for it, tell him that you can't disclose the final price at the moment, so it's inconvenient to give it to him."
Luo Si was once again puzzled.
If they were inviting An Hao to participate, why wouldn't they let him know the final price?!
In fact, the final price had indeed been revised by President An himself on the plan, and currently, only the board members, herself, and President An knew about it.
So, was President An still wary of An Hao?!
If he was wary, why would he want An Hao to accompany her?
Was it to show someone else?!
"When you reject An Hao, you should give him a hint that the plan is with you," An Nuan instructed.
Luo Si felt her brain power was insufficient.
Was this a scene from Mission: Impossible?!
Or was it one of those constantly twisting and turning plots?
"Just follow my instructions," An Nuan didn't explain much. "You can leave now."
"Yes."
Luo Si left.
An Nuan smiled lightly.
This time, she was going to make the Gu family lose both their reputation and their power!
...
Public Relations Department office.
Luo Si knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Luo Si walked in and respectfully said to An Hao, "President An, Vice President An Nuan has already submitted the construction project for Nanwan New City separately and has received unanimous approval from the group. President An wants me to inform you that you will accompany her to the Planning Department for bidding next Monday."
"Me?" An Hao was obviously a bit surprised and flattered.
"Vice President An specifically named you to go together."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, it's to go with President An," Luo Si confirmed again.
An Hao reluctantly believed it.
With some doubts, An Hao still agreed, "Okay, please inform me of the specific time in advance, and I'll go with her."
"Okay. If there's nothing else, I'll leave now."
"Wait." An Hao stopped Luo Si. "Is the plan still the same as our previous proposal?"
"No," Luo Si replied, "There have been some slight changes to the plan."
"Where specifically?"
"The bidding amount. Vice President An made some appropriate modifications. The revised plan will be more competitive," Luo Si honestly answered.
"By how much?" An Hao quickly asked.
"I'm sorry, President An. Vice President An said that no one should be informed. It's a matter of business confidentiality, so I can't tell you," Luo Si quickly replied. "I've already locked the plan in my safe, and I won't dare to take it out before Monday."
An Hao pursed his lips.
He knew he wouldn't be able to get an answer.
A woman like An Nuan must still be wary of him.
To think that An Nuan had acted so magnanimously and generously in front of all the high-level executives, now she naturally had to fulfill her promise and not become a laughingstock.
It had to be said that this woman was much smarter than he had anticipated.
"Alright, you can leave now," An Hao waved for Luo Si to go.
As soon as Luo Si left, Gu Yan Sheng immediately called An Nuan, saying, "There have been some changes to the plan, so the quoted price for your proposal may need to be adjusted."
At this moment, Gu Yan Sheng was reviewing An Nuan's bid proposal and was truly astonished by her vision for the redevelopment of Nanwan New City. The design concept was nothing short of remarkable, surpassing the current design standards of Beiwengu by at least ten years!
How did An Nuan come up with such a modern and technologically advanced urban transformation plan that could be fully implemented? He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and admiration for her accomplishments.
He couldn't help but feel grateful for his decision to directly use An Nuan's proposal instead of arrogantly attempting to create his own. Otherwise, he would have been utterly crushed by An Nuan!
Upon hearing An Hao's words, he asked in a cold voice, "How much is the change?"
He knew it.
An Nuan wouldn't make things that simple.
She wouldn't just expose the proposal so easily.
The moment An Hao effortlessly obtained the proposal, he became suspicious.
But now, receiving a call from An Hao, his doubts vanished.
"I don't know. Only the board members, An Nuan, and her secretary know the final price," An Hao replied.
"Can you find a way to get it?"
"My father is currently in prison, and I'm growing more distant from the board members. Those old men are very pragmatic. So if I rashly inquire about the price, it will seem suspicious and raise their guard," An Hao explained.
"What about bribing An Nuan's secretary?" Gu Yan Sheng asked directly.
"It's unlikely. The secretary is fiercely loyal to An Nuan. We won't be able to bribe her."
"Then we have no choice but to steal it."
An Hao was taken aback. "Steal? How?"
"Where is the final draft of the proposal?" Gu Yan Sheng inquired.
"It should be with An Nuan's secretary. That's why it's impossible for us to bribe someone whom An Nuan trusts so much."
"We'll go to An Nuan's secretary and take the key," Gu Yan Sheng stated frankly. "Where would you normally store your proposals?"
"They won't be saved on a computer. For truly confidential proposals, they will store the USB drive containing the proposal in a safe, just in case."
"The key is with An Nuan's secretary?" Gu Yan Sheng asked.
"Yes."
"Does she carry the key with her?"
"She probably does."
"Alright, I'll find a way to take An Nuan's secretary's key, and you prepare to retrieve the proposal."
"I'm afraid..." An Hao hesitated.
"What are you afraid of?" Gu Yan Sheng said, "Follow my instructions, and there won't be any problems."
An Hao still hesitated.
"An Hao, have you considered that if An Nuan succeeds in this project, have you thought about your chances of inheriting your father's position? I can assure you that if An Nuan secures the planning department's proposal this time, the position of Vice President of An's Group will undoubtedly belong to her. But if she makes a mistake this time, your chances will be much greater."
Gritting his teeth, An Hao finally agreed. "Okay."
"Smart person," Gu Yan Sheng praised and continued, "Now go to Secretary An Nuan's office and find the location of her safe. At the same time, check if there are any surveillance cameras capturing your movement from your office to her office. Figure out a way to make the surveillance disappear; otherwise, if the playback is reviewed, you will be exposed."
"I'll find a solution."
"Do it tonight, tonight is the time to act."
"So urgent?" An Hao exclaimed.
"To prevent any unforeseen circumstances," Gu Yan Sheng replied confidently.
An Hao gritted his teeth. "Alright."
"First, follow my instructions. If you encounter any difficulties, call me immediately."
"Okay."
He hung up the phone.
Gu Yan Sheng smirked cunningly.
Previously, he had underestimated An Nuan and let his guard down.
Now that he knew An Nuan's abilities, he was determined to make her suffer a devastating defeat!
