Chapter 377 Greater Power
What does Mr. Chen know? How does he know about my current situation?
My mind is full of questions.
He was lying on the hospital bed, and when he saw me, there was a lot of light in his eyes.
"You're here?" he greeted me in a weak voice.
"Yes." I looked at Mr. Chen in front of me, not knowing what to say.
"Don't be afraid, kid, sit down." He pointed to the chair in front of him and looked at me: "I know what you are thinking? But now I will tell you what needs to be solved first."
I nodded without saying anything.
Mr. Chen then handed me a document.
There are some data above, but I can't understand these data just by looking at them. He told me in detail that they are all about the business of Zhao Xing and Lin Qing.
I was still holding a cup of warm water in my hand, and Song Yang was standing beside me with a serious expression.
He then revealed his identity.
Old Chen slowly opened his eyes, his gaze stayed on Song Yang and me for a moment, and suddenly he revealed a meaningful smile.
He sighed softly, his voice low but firm: "Children, there are some things I have kept from you for a long time. Now it's time to tell you."
I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously tightened my grip on the water cup in my hand: "Mr. Chen, what did you say?"
Chen Yuanshan tilted his head slightly, his eyes deep and calm: "I am not just the 'Old Chen' in your eyes. My real identity is... Chen Yuanshan, a former criminal policeman."
Song Yang and I were stunned at the same time, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
What? The police?
Countless images flashed through my mind, and I thought it was that business brain, or some wealthy family.
"Interpol?" Song Yang spoke first, his voice full of disbelief, "You mean, you used to be a policeman?"
Chen Yuanshan nodded, his eyes filled with reminiscence, and said, "Yes. When I was young, I was responsible for combating economic crimes. Later, I offended the underworld forces during a mission and was forced to retire. Over the years, I continued to work behind the scenes as a business consultant, secretly maintaining business order."
My heart beat faster. I never thought that this kind old man in front of me had such a legendary past.
I asked quietly, "Why are you telling us this?"
Chen Yuanshan looked at me with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Because you are trustworthy. I can see that you are really doing this for the Song Group and for each other. I don't want to hide it from you anymore, and I don't want you to be in danger without knowing it."
Is this really the case? Then his assistant explained it to me again.
Chen Yuanshan smiled and patted the back of my hand gently: "Silly child, none of this matters. What matters is that you must remember that the business world is like a battlefield, but the real victory is not to defeat your opponent, but to keep your original intention."
Song Yang took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "Uncle Chen, we understand. We will definitely keep your teachings in mind."
Chen Yuanshan's eyes swept across Song Yang and me, and his tone suddenly became serious: "There are even bigger forces behind Lin Qing and Zhao Xing. They don't just want to bring down the Song family, their goal is control of the entire business community. You must be careful."
"What? It's really like this? Wasn't it just a matter of land before? Why are your hands so long now?"
"I don't think they can keep being so arrogant for much longer." Song Yang said angrily.
"That's true, but..." I paused, leaving some words unsaid. After all, we should choose to get more information about the person in front of us. His information will be of great benefit to us. On the one hand, we can understand their recent movements, and on the other hand, we can catch them in a trap.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, we already know what happened. Now it's up to us."
I said firmly, and Mr. Chen replied with an expression that he was very sure of the result: "Okay, I believe you can do it. Now I am retired. If you need anything, just contact me at any time. Don't be afraid."
I replied happily, "I understand, Mr. Chen, but you should have a good rest here. If anything happens, notify me and Song Yang immediately."
Chen Yuanshan smiled, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, my old bones can still hold on. However, the rest of the journey depends on you guys."
I stood up and bowed deeply: "Thank you, Uncle Chen."
Chen Yuanshan waved his hand and said in a more relaxed tone: "Okay, don't be so serious. Go ahead and prepare yourself for what they are going to do. Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you must stick to your original intention."
Song Yang and I looked at each other and immediately understood what we were going to face next.
When I walked out of the ward, I looked back and saw Chen Yuanshan leaning against the head of the bed, looking out the window with a calm and deep expression.
I suddenly felt that this old man was quite interesting.
"What do you think of what he said?"
I looked up and asked Song Yang next to me. He replied, "I have investigated this person before, but the investigation is not very clear. I believe in my sixth sense."
"Okay, but what are your plans next?"
He thought for about three minutes and said, "Let's follow the original plan. After all, we still have to get the land. They have the bargaining chips in their hands!"
"I don't think so. Besides, you know the current situation. They won't give us the land easily."
"Of course, but do you have any better ideas?" Song Yang asked with a puzzled look.
"Song Yang," I stopped and turned to look at him, "We must act immediately. Uncle Chen is right, Lin Qing and Zhao Xing's goal is not just to cooperate, they want to completely bring down the Song family."
Song Yang nodded, frowning: "Yes, the opposition in the board of directors is obviously colluding with them. Do you mean that we should clean up from within first? Otherwise, even if there is a good plan, it will be ruined by them."
"I can redesign the cooperation plan and add more innovative elements to make it more competitive in the market. This way, even if Lin Qing and Zhao Xing want to find fault, they won't find an excuse."
Song Yang's eyes lit up. "Good guy, why didn't you say so earlier? I believe in your design talent. The benefits are inevitable after the success of the project."
I smiled, but felt a little nervous: "However, there are not many people who support us on the board of directors. We need to win more votes."
"I have contacted several directors. Although they appear to be neutral, they are privately dissatisfied with Song Feng's actions." Song Yang whispered, "We can arrange a meeting with them to win their support."
"Okay," I nodded, "then let's split up. I'll go to the studio to redesign the plan, and I'll leave that to you."
