Xu Zhihong's arrival made Yang Cheng completely confused as to what Lin Ruoxi was up to, and Mo Qianni also had an "I don't know anything" expression on her face, which made Yang Cheng a little depressed.
Last night, Lin Ruoxi had just signed the contract for the three companies to join forces to deal with the Xu family's Donghua Technology. At this moment, Xu Zhihong was almost certain to be their enemy, but why did this enemy make an appointment to have breakfast here?
"Are you confused, Mr. Yang?" Xu Zhihong smiled warmly.
However, just like before, Yang Cheng didn't like his expression. He rolled his eyes and said, "I am confused, but I don't need you to tell me the answer."
Xu Zhihong smiled and didn't say much.
Lin Ruoxi and Mo Qianni looked at each other. When they saw the displeasure on Yang Cheng's face, they both smiled.
At this moment, her assistant, Wu Yue, ran up to Lin Ruoxi with a handheld computer in her hands. She reported to Lin Ruoxi, "Boss Lin, five minutes ago, after Changlin Media confirmed that we've already transferred five billion into the account, they also transferred five billion into the account. Together with the two billion from Muyun Group last night, the construction of the UBS escrow account has been completed."
"Has Changlin Media's financial situation been confirmed?" Lin Ruoxi asked.
Wu Yue opened a file on the handheld computer and looked at various complex graphs. She said, "According to the analysis of the 'Athena Team,' after both parties have transferred five billion Hua Xia dollars, Changlin Media will be extremely short of funds in the short term. Within three months, there will be a huge gap in the capital chain, unless Yan Jing City's Zeng family provides help."
"What is the Athena Team?" Yang Cheng asked Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi didn't answer, but Mo Qianni explained kindly, "After our General Lin took office, he personally selected various economic actuaries and traders from all over the world from all branches and universities. They are mainly responsible for analyzing the specific situation of competitive competitors."
Xu Zhihong also excitedly added, "Although Ruoxi's small team doesn't have more than ten people, I'm also very envious, haha."
Lin Ruoxi thought for a moment and said, "It's impossible for Yan Jing to help it. The Zeng family doesn't know about this property, and it involves politics. The Zeng family wouldn't dare to act recklessly … Wu Yue, execute the next step of the plan."
"Yes, General Lin!"
Wu Yue bowed and left the restaurant first.
Yang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Who can explain it to me?"
Lin Ruoxi took a sip of orange juice and said, "Before this cooperation, I had spent three months selling dozens of basic production plants and some shares of other companies to raise 8 billion yuan. 5 billion yuan was put into the Swiss bank account, and the remaining 3 billion was used to suppress the listing of Changlin Media shares in Hong Kong."
"Suppress Changlin?" Yang Cheng thought he heard wrong. Didn't they just say they were going to cooperate?!
"You didn't hear wrong," Mo Qianni explained again, "Yu Lei has already asked all of our newspapers and magazines to contact our peers. This morning, we will start spreading negative news about Changlin. In this way, Changlin Media's shares will be gradually sold by the shareholders. They will sell off their shares, and we will buy them. When we receive a sufficient amount of shares, we will sell them all at a low price again. After the shareholders panic, the scattered shares will also be sold … All we need to do is to keep repeating this operation. Without sufficient cash support, Changlin's shares will be at our mercy. In less than a day, Changlin Media will collapse. "
Regardless of how good this plan was, Yang Cheng still felt it was too simple, "Changlin is also a large company with tens of billions of assets. Can this trick kill them?"
"It was a wrong decision for Changlin to enter Zhonghai this time. Although such a change will bring them long-term benefits, in the short term, there will be a lot of basic work that will require a huge amount of funds. However, Zeng Xinlin wanted to use this cooperation between the three companies to stabilize his position. Unfortunately, he thought too simply of the business world, "Mo Qianni said.
Xu Zhihong clapped his hands in agreement and laughed, "The business world is like a battlefield. When weapons meet, there's no need to care about relationships."
Yang Cheng looked at the emotionless Lin Ruoxi, then looked at the smiling Xu Zhihong and asked, "CEO Xu, why are you here?"
Xu Zhihong laughed and said, "Why don't we move to the computer room and watch the stock market war, then tell Mr. Yang about it?"
…
Zeng Xinlin, who came to the office early in the morning, didn't drink coffee. Instead, he made a cup of tea. What he needed wasn't an abundance of energy, but a calm mind.
That was because Zeng Xinlin felt that his emotions weren't too stable.
Half an hour ago, the Ministry of Finance confirmed that there was already 7 billion in the UBS bank account. Then, Zeng Xinlin gave the order to invest all of the 5 billion that was raised.
This way, the cooperation this time was almost set in stone, and no one could go back on their word. After all, 12 billion for the cooperation to research and develop new materials wasn't a joke.
However, because everything seemed to be going too smoothly, Zeng Xinlin started to feel uneasy.
He wasn't an idiot, nor was he a brute. He knew clearly what he was doing. He guessed that the one-time investment was too big, and he wasn't used to it yet.
Zeng Xinlin sat back on his big CEO leather chair and started to look at a series of contract documents on the computer. He was full of confidence for the future.
His family had given a large piece of Changlin Media to him to manage, and he resolutely chose to move to Zhonghai to develop. Although it took a lot of manpower and financial resources to stand firm, the future prospects couldn't be ignored.
Changlin Media was different from other fashion companies. Even the most powerful company in Zhonghai, Yu Lei International, didn't have the help of political connections like Changlin Media. This was an innate advantage.
Zeng Xinlin was sure that as long as this cooperation was completed and profits were generated, Changlin Media's future development would definitely surpass Yu Lei International.
Although Lin Ruoxi was an outstanding manager, in Zeng Xinlin's eyes, she was more of a beautiful woman, a woman that should be captured by him in the end …
He almost succeeded in university. Although she was with someone else now, Zeng Xinlin believed that he would be able to snatch her back with his own means.
Moreover, he had already discovered the "loophole" of that man.
Therefore, Zeng Xinlin wasn't in a hurry. What he needed now was to guard every step well and be down-to-earth. He was Lin Ruoxi's senior, and in the future, he would also be Lin Ruoxi's senior in the business world!
At this moment, there was a hurried knock on the door.
"Come in."
Lu Tao's chubby body ran in and said anxiously, "CEO, I just received news that at least 20 media outlets, including Hua Xia Weekly, Zhonghai Daily, Jiangnan News, have all reported negative news about our Changlin Entertainment and Changlin Records. They are all scandals about the unspoken rules and inside information!"
Zeng Xinlin was instantly shocked, but he wasn't too agitated. He knocked on the table and asked, "Have you found out the reason?"
"Those media outlets suddenly cut off their contact with us. However, we can clear our name through the press conference. After all, they don't have sufficient evidence, but … but …"
"But what?"
"Our shares have fallen to the lowest point of this month, and we are being purchased by a few unfamiliar companies. There are also some individual buyers who have bought a large amount of our shares … I feel that something is wrong with this situation," Lu Tao said timidly in a low voice.
Something is wrong! Of course something is wrong!
Zeng Xinlin's scalp went numb. He gradually realized that something was wrong and shouted, "Start gathering funds from all sides immediately. Gather all the money that can be gathered, now!!"
"Yes!"
Lu Tao ran out of the office in terror. He was scared out of his wits by Zeng Xinlin.
Zeng Xinlin couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and paced back and forth. He knew that this was definitely a premeditated battle of funds. There were only three outcomes in such a battle: Either you die, I die, or both sides suffer heavy losses!
The one who wanted to launch such an attack was definitely an opponent who intended to fight to the death with you!
Who was it!?
Changlin entering Zhonghai was undoubtedly a huge impact on other related companies. There were many companies that wanted to deal with Changlin. However, only Yu Lei was able to do so!
Was it Lin Ruoxi? That cold and aloof woman who was like an otherworldly fairy!?
A junior who is learning from my butt!?
Zeng Xinlin didn't dare to believe that this woman who seemed to be aloof from worldly affairs would wield a butcher's knife against him …
After letting his imagination run wild for a while, Zeng Xinlin wanted to call Lin Ruoxi and ask her if she knew anything and if she was the mastermind behind all of this. However, he put down the phone after picking it up.
He knew that as long as he asked this question, no matter what the answer was, he would never be able to get that woman in this lifetime — he couldn't afford to gamble!
"CEO!!"
Lu Tao's voice broke the silence in the office. Fatty ran into the office with sweat all over his head and said with a long face, "Something big happened, CEO!"
