Chapter 2562: The Chapter Was Disrupted

Claire held back her anger. She was good at arguing and knew that whoever got angry first would lose.

"Mr. Liu's conclusion is totally untenable. If our citizens commit crimes in other countries, they will be punished by our laws. Moreover, this is federal land. No matter what nationality they are, they cannot be used as a suspect to escape punishment. He must accept our investigation and trial."

Having said that, Claire looked around and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, our negotiations are about to begin. All irrelevant personnel, please leave the scene immediately and do not interfere with our communication."

Without waiting for Liu Fusheng to express his opinion, she led the federal delegation, separated the reporters, and walked to their own positions.

Upon seeing this, the staff immediately set about maintaining order at the scene.

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "It's quite interesting."

Wang Heping said, "Yes, I heard that Claire has a high reputation in the Federation. She is swift and decisive in her work and ruthless in her words. She is a tough guy. We have to be careful."

Liu Fusheng said: "It's okay. We have already made a detailed plan. We just need to implement it step by step."

After a pause, he continued, "Smith gave me a big gift just now."

"Ok?"

Wang Heping asked in confusion: "Didn't you say that Smith didn't provide any important information? We haven't even figured out the other party's bottom line."

Liu Fusheng said, "Smith did not reveal any information, but he and his behavior are a great gift. Deputy Director Wang can inform the other members of the group. If there is a situation where they cannot receive the message or it is difficult to receive the message, you can blame Smith. I will be responsible for teasing Ms. Claire."

Wang Heping nodded slightly, gave a thumbs up and said, "Mr. Liu still has a solution. I heard that Claire has always looked down on Smith. If we do this, it is very likely that she will be confused."

……

All the reporters left, and Claire talked in a low voice to her assistant.

A few minutes later, she looked at Liu Fusheng and said, "Mr. Liu, our topic just now was very interesting, but out of respect for both of us, let's start the formal negotiation."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Okay."

Claire said: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Claire, and I am the Federation's plenipotentiary representative for this negotiation with you."

She stood up and politely extended her right hand to Liu Fusheng across the table.

Liu Fusheng also stood up and stretched out his hand, saying at the same time: "I have heard of your name for a long time, Ms. Claire. Mr. Smith praised you highly in front of me."

Claire's expression froze slightly. Smith, he actually ran up to Liu Fusheng and complained about himself?

Since taking office, Claire has only done two things. The first is to formulate a negotiation strategy, and the second is to humiliate Smith in different ways.

For this reason, can Smith say anything good?

When Claire thought about how Smith had slandered her in front of foreigners, she felt as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.

The assistant noticed that something was wrong with her expression and quickly said, "Mr. Liu, Smith doesn't know Ms. Claire well, and what he said is not objective. Don't be misled by him."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said nothing.

Wang Heping continued, "It seems that what Mr. Smith said is correct. Ms. Claire and the members of your delegation are deliberately avoiding any relationship with him."

"What's there to avoid?" the assistant asked in confusion.

Wang Heping said: "Mr. Smith told us that everyone in your delegation will only communicate with him in private. As for daily work, they will try to avoid interacting with him. After all, a new emperor appoints new officials, and when a new person in charge comes, the old one must leave."

Claire looked at the members of the delegation. Each member had a different expression on his face, and they were all wondering what Smith would say.

Liu Fusheng pretended to be mysterious and said, "Well, Mr. Smith did not come to the negotiation, and what he said has nothing to do with the subject of the negotiation. Let's not continue this topic. I hope that you can continue with the content of the last negotiation and provide concrete evidence that Mr. Chen Fei, our entrepreneur, has violated laws and regulations."

Claire was alert and quickly got into the mood and said, "Mr. Liu, please don't dwell on the result of the negotiation. I don't care what Smith talked to you about. He can no longer represent the attitude of the Federation. I want to solemnly declare that the Federal Court will make a ruling on Mr. Chen Fei's crime, and other countries have no right to interfere with our judicial justice."

After hearing this, one of our assistants couldn't seem to control his expression. He smiled and muttered, "Even the wording is the same as what Mr. Smith said. This routine is really boring."

The volume of his "soft voice" was just enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Claire's eyebrows immediately stood up: "What did you say?"

Liu Fusheng quickly tried to smooth things over and said, "It's okay, he was just talking casually. Let's not talk about Smith anymore and get on with the business."

Claire and the federal delegation both looked unhappy.

Liu Fusheng said seriously: "Even according to your laws, the police need to produce solid evidence to arrest suspects. If they restrict personal freedom based on speculation, it is definitely illegal detention... According to federal law, even criminal suspects have the right to meet with lawyers and review evidence. Why do you deny Mr. Chen Fei these rights?"

Wang Heping also said: "We have sent representatives to meet with Mr. Chen Fei many times, but we have been rejected repeatedly by you. You only allow us to observe Mr. Chen Fei's video. What's the reason? Mr. Chen Fei has been treated unfairly, and you dare not let outsiders know about it?"

Our representatives spoke up one after another, and each question was more pointed than the last.

Claire's prepared rhythm had been disrupted by the repeated calls of "Mr. Smith". Now she was a little exhausted, answering question after question, and her mouth was dry and her tongue was parched.

Finally, she slammed the table angrily and said loudly: "Stop, Mr. Liu and all the representatives, I need to solemnly remind you that this is the Federation, and all conclusions need to be made by law enforcement agencies. I can tell you responsibly that there is no room for negotiation regarding Chen Fei's matter, unless... your country shows enough sincerity."

Liu Fusheng nodded slightly, a strange smile appearing on his face.

"Ms. Claire, do you also admit that your country is using Mr. Chen Fei as a bargaining chip? The outcome of our negotiations has long been determined. What the Federation really wants is to negotiate with our country through our entrepreneur Mr. Chen Fei, so that our country can meet certain demands of your country. Only in this way will our entrepreneur representatives be released by your country. Is that right?"
