Qihang Technology.

After Lin Fan finished receiving Ye Yuyan's call, his face turned deathly pale.

"Yu Yan, what did you say? The Song family is colluding with foreign forces to try to monopolize the domestic chip market?" Lin Fan's voice trembled, almost unable to believe his ears.

"Yes, Lin Fan," Ye Yuyan's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I just received information that the Song family is in secret contact with a foreign technology company called 'Alpha'. They plan to join forces to control the domestic chip supply and suppress domestic chip companies."

"Alpha?" Lin Fan frowned deeply.

"I've heard of this company. It's an internationally notorious tech giant, known for its technological monopolies and unfair competition."

"That's right."

"If the Song family and Alpha succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable. The domestic chip industry will suffer a devastating blow, and our 'Qihang' will become a thorn in their side."

Lin Fan's heart sank to the bottom.

He never expected that he would encounter such a huge crisis at a critical moment in chip development.

"Yu Yan, are you sure this news is reliable?" Lin Fan's voice was tinged with uncertainty.

"Very reliable."

Ye Yuyan said decisively.

"I obtained this information from a very secretive source, so there's absolutely no mistake about it."

Lin Fan remained silent for a moment.

"Yu Yan, thank you for telling me this. I will try my best to deal with it."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan's face was terribly gloomy.

He looked at his team members, who were still at a loss, and felt a mix of emotions.

“The Song family…” Lin Fan gritted his teeth as he read the name.

"Since you're so unscrupulous, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Qihang Technology, Emergency Meeting Room.

The atmosphere was so heavy it was almost palpable, and everyone's face was etched with anxiety and unease.

"Bang!" Lin Fan slammed his hand on the table, the loud noise echoing in the conference room, making everyone's heart tremble.

"The Song family! Alpha!"

He gritted his teeth as he muttered those two names.

"They've gone too far!"

Zhao Qiang sat to Lin Fan's right, his face pale and his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

"President Lin, what should we do now? The Song family and Alpha are joined forces, their strength is too great, we...we are afraid..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was already quite clear.

"What are you afraid of!" Lin Fan suddenly stood up, his sharp gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"They have their clever plans, but we have our countermeasures! Are we just supposed to sit here and wait to die?"

“Mr. Lin, you’re right!” Technical Director Li was the first to stand up and respond.

"We cannot give up! We must speed up chip development! Even if it costs me my life, I will make this chip!"

"Yes! We can't give up!"

"Let's fight them!"

Li's words ignited the fighting spirit of everyone present.

Lin Fan nodded, signaling everyone to remain calm.

"Technological research and development is our foundation, and we must never relax our efforts on this point."

He turned to look at Engineer Li, "Engineer Li, the R&D progress depends entirely on you. Just let us know what you need, and the company will fully support you!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I guarantee I'll complete the task!" Engineer Li said firmly.

"Okay!" Lin Fan continued.

"In addition to accelerating research and development, we also need to take the initiative."

The collusion between the Song family and Alpha must be clandestine. We must find a way to gather evidence and expose their conspiracy!

"Mr. Lin, you mean..."

"I'm asking you this tentatively," said Manager Zhang, the public relations manager.

“That’s right!” Lin Fan’s eyes sharpened.

"We want everyone to know what the Song family and Alpha are doing! We want public opinion to be on our side!"

"But... this is too difficult." Manager Zhang looked troubled.

"The Song family wields considerable influence in the media; I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us..."

“I know it’s difficult,” Lin Fan interrupted him. “But no matter how difficult it is, we have to do it! Public relations department, get moving immediately, contact all the media outlets you can reach, and do everything you can to spread the word!”

"Yes, Mr. Lin!" Manager Zhang gritted his teeth and agreed.

“Also,” Lin Fan said, looking at Marketing Manager Wang.

"Manager Wang, you need to investigate Alpha Corporation immediately. I need to know everything about them, including their partners, their funding sources, their technological advantages, and... their weaknesses!"

"Mr. Lin, this..."

Manager Wang hesitated, "Alpha Corporation is an international giant, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us..."

“I know it’s difficult!” Lin Fan interrupted him again, “But no matter how difficult it is, we have to do it! This is our only chance to fight back!”

"Yes, Mr. Lin!" Manager Wang was also willing to go all out.

"Meeting adjourned!" Lin Fan waved his hand. "Everyone, get to work immediately! Qihang Technology will never admit defeat!"

Lin Fan was the only one left in the conference room.

He rubbed his temples wearily, then dialed Ye Yuyan's number.

"Yu Yan, I've already started the operation here, what about you?"

On the other end of the phone, Ye Yuyan's voice remained calm and firm. "I'm using my connections to try and dismantle the alliance between the Song family and Alpha from within."

"Any progress?" Lin Fan asked anxiously.

"Yes." Ye Yuyan's voice was filled with excitement. "I discovered that the Song family is not a monolithic entity, and some people are dissatisfied with this collusion."

"Oh?" Lin Fan's eyes lit up. "Who is it?"

"Song Qingfeng, the second young master of the Song family."

“He has always advocated independent research and development and opposed cooperation with Alpha. Moreover, he has always harbored resentment towards Song Qingming, the eldest son of the Song family.”

“Song Qingfeng…” Lin Fan murmured to himself, “This person, perhaps, can be used.”

“That’s right,” Ye Yuyan said. “I have already sent someone to secretly contact him, hoping to persuade him to cooperate with us.”

"Great!" Lin Fan said excitedly, "Yu Yan, this matter is all up to you!"

"Don't worry. I will do my best."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan felt a little relieved.

He believed that as long as he and Ye Yuyan worked together, they would definitely be able to defeat the Song family and Alpha.

Meanwhile, at the hospital.

Outside the emergency room, Lin's relatives remained anxious and restless.

"Doctor, how is my older brother? Has he woken up?"

"Doctor, please, you must save my brother!"

The doctor took off his mask again and shook his head: "The patient is temporarily out of danger, but he has not yet woken up and is still in a coma."

"coma?"

"What...what should we do?"

The hearts of Lin's relatives sank to the bottom once again.

"What about the medical expenses? How do we pay for the medical expenses?"

"What about the company? What will happen to the company?"

"My brother is unconscious, and the company is leaderless. What are we going to do?"

The Lin family relatives started talking all at once, and the topic quickly shifted from Lin Shan's illness to medical expenses and control of the company.

"My brother's medical expenses are no small sum."

"Yes, the ICU ward costs tens of thousands a day."

"Who's going to pay for this?"

"Of course, everyone contributed."

"Why should everyone contribute? The eldest brother doesn't belong to everyone."

"That's right, the eldest brother's inheritance hasn't been divided yet."

"Inheritance? My brother isn't even dead yet, and you're already thinking about dividing the inheritance?"

"I...that's not what I meant."

"So what do you mean?"

The Lin family relatives became more and more agitated as they talked, and soon they started arguing.

"Stop arguing!" a middle-aged woman stepped forward. "The most important thing right now is to save your brother's life! As for medical expenses and company matters, we can talk about them after he wakes up!"

"Yes! Save Big Brother's life first!"

"But...where will the money come from?"

"What about the company? What will happen to the company?"

"How about... we go find Lin Fan?" a young voice suddenly said.

Looking for Lin Fan?

"Yes! Find Lin Fan!"

"Didn't he cut ties with us?"

"So what? If his older brother is in trouble, how can he just ignore it?"

"Exactly, he's so rich, what's wrong with asking him to pay some medical expenses?"

"You can also ask him to help manage the company."

"Yes! He's so capable, he can definitely revive the company."

"But... will he agree?"

"Give it a try, it's better than sitting and waiting to die."

"Then...who will go?"

“I’ll go,” a middle-aged man stepped forward. “I’m the eldest brother’s younger brother, so it’s most appropriate for me to go.”

"Okay! Go! You must persuade Lin Fan!"

"Yes! We must make him contribute both money and effort!"

The middle-aged man nodded, then turned and walked out of the hospital.
