Chapter 186-2: Something horrible happened
âŠâŠ
Zeng Xinlin who came to the office early in the morning hadnât had any coffee, which was rare. He only steeped a cup of green tea, because what he needed wasnât more energy, but a serene state of mind.
Because, Zeng Xinlin felt that his emotions werenât stable.
Half an hour ago, the finance department had confirmed that there was seven billion in the shared Swiss Bank account, so Zeng Xinlin ordered the whole five billion that they had raised to be transferred in.
In this way, this collaboration is set in stone, and nobody can back out. After all, it was written in the contracts that the twelve billion in funds may only be used for researching and producing the new product.
However, itâs exactly because everything had gone so smoothly that Zeng Xinlin began to feel restless.
He wasnât an idiot, and more so wasnât a reckless fool. He knew what he was doing, but he supposed that this investment was too big and felt like he couldnât get over it.
Sitting back at his big leather chair, Zeng Xinlin began to look at the business contracts on his computer. He was full of confidence towards the future.
The family had put a large establishment like Changlin into his hands, and he resolutely chose to move and develop in Zhonghai. Although he expended a lot of human and financial resources to take root, the future prospects in this move couldnât be overlooked.
Changlin Media was different from other companies who were in the fashion industry. Even Yu Lei International who was the biggest in Zhonghai didnât have government connections like Changlin Media, this was a phenomenal advantage.
Zeng Xinlin firmly believed that as long as this collaboration succeeds and produces a profit, Changlin Mediaâs future growth would definitely surpass Yu Lei International.
Lin Ruoxi may be a remarkable businesswoman, but in Zeng Xinlinâs eyes, she was just regarded as a beautiful woman, a woman that should ultimately be conquered by himâŠâŠ
He had nearly succeeded in college. Although she was now with another man, Zeng Xinlin believed that with what he had, he could take her back.
Besides, he had already find âflawsâ about that man.
Therefore, Zeng Xinlin wasnât in a hurry. What he needed to do was to plan every step properly and uprightly. He was Lin Ruoxiâs senior, and in the future, he would also be superior to Lin Ruoxi in the business world!
Right at this point, urgent knocks were heard from the door.
âCome in.â
Lu Taoâs plumped body rushed in, and he anxiously said, âBoss, I just received information that Huaxia Weekly, Zhonghai Daily, Jiangnan News and at least twenty other media outlets have all reported negative news of companies under our Changlin Media, and are all scandals about dirty rules and things happening behind the scenes!â
Zeng Xinlin immediately trembled from fright, but he wasnât too agitated. He knocked the desk and asked, âHave you investigated the source?â
âThose media outlets have suddenly broke off all connections with us, but we could hold a press conference to clear off these matters as they do not have enough evidence, how⊠howeverâŠâŠâ
âHowever what?â
âOur shares have fallen to the lowest it has been this month, and are in the middle of being indiscriminately purchased by unfamiliar companies. There are also individual buyers purchasing large amounts of sharesâŠâŠ I feel like something isnât right.â Lu Tao cowardly whispered.
It isnât right!? Of course it isnât right!
Zeng Xinlin felt his scalp go numb, he gradually became aware of what the problem was, and shouted, âImmediately raise funds from all subsidiaries, amass all funds possible, do it now!!â
âRoger!â
Lu Tao cowardly ran out of the office as if he was thoroughly frightened by Zeng Xinlin.
Zeng Xinlin could no longer sit still, he stood up and paced back and forth for he knew that this was a premeditated war of capital reserves.
A battle like this only had three outcomes, either you die, I die, or we both suffer grievous wounds!
An enemy that would initiate such an attack is definitely one that plans on fighting to the death!
Who is it!?
Changlin barging into Zhonghai had without a doubt offended many other companies in the same industry. Those who want to deal with Changlin could be found everywhere, but the only one who could actually do something about it was Yu Lei!
Itâs Lin Ruoxi? That cold and quiet woman who looked like she wouldnât even hurt a fly!?
That junior who stuck onto me during studies!?
Zeng Xinlin couldnât believe that a woman like this who seemed keep away from any conflict would be the one to swing the executionerâs blade at himâŠâŠ
After his imagination ran wild, Zeng Xinlin had the impulse to call Lin Ruoxi and ask if she knew about this and whether she was behind it, but after he picked up the phone, he put it back down.
He knew that as long as he asked, no matter what the answer was, he would never be able to attain this woman in this lifetime; he couldnât ruin his chances of that!
âBoss!â
Lu Taoâs shout broke the silence in the office, the fatty entered with his forehead covered in sweat, and sullenly said, âBoss, something horrible has happened!â
