After hanging up the phone, Qin Suisui began preparing information and materials about Wenhui Pharmaceutical.
The lawsuit against Huating Power took up too much of her time; it took her almost six months to complete the first phase of the work.
Judging from the reactions from all sides this morning, she will likely be working non-stop for the next few days.
The most pressing lawsuit she has is the equity dispute case involving Wenhui Pharmaceutical, which is owned by Zhang Lan.
Wenhui Pharmaceutical is a typical case of equity disputes. Before this, the shareholders did not dare to openly confront their internal strife, let alone put the matter in the open, so the lawsuit was not viewed favorably.
If Zhang Lan didn't have a good cousin, she would probably be in a terrible predicament right now, and might have already been ousted from the board of directors.
This time, Zhang Lan must have been forced into a corner where there was no time to delay, and the situation was so serious that he was determined to separate the shares even at the cost of a stock price crash.
According to Zhang Lan's current expression, she is unwilling to continue working for those old bastards in the cheap group who take salaries but do nothing!
In reality, it may be a case of internal strife between them, and they have reached a point of life and death.
Qin Suisui had investigated Wenhui Pharmaceutical before the Lunar New Year. Whether in terms of stock price or net profit, it had already fallen out of the top tier of the industry. If it continued to make trouble, the group would eventually be exhausted. It would be better to destroy and then build.
She was looking up information when the phone on her desk rang.
Looking at the phone number above, she was slightly surprised; it was the phone number for the headquarters of the Law Offices of Lawrence Manston.
"My dearest Sheffield!"
Joyce's enthusiastic and loud voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Professor Joyce, why are you calling me at this hour?"
Qin Suisui looked at the time with some confusion. It was 11 a.m. Huating time, which was about 11 p.m. Manston time. At this time, according to Joyce's habits, he would usually be asleep.
"Didn't you always resist staying up late? You're not resting at this hour."
"Sheffield!"
Joyce's tone carried a hint of indignation: "I was woken up by some jerk."
"Xie Fei, I heard you're currently involved in a lawsuit with Shenglun International?"
"Yes, but this lawsuit is basically nearing its end, and the outcome has already been predicted."
"Hmm~ What's going on? Sheffield, tell me briefly."
Joyce snapped out of her anger and asked with a hint of caution.
After Xie Fei briefly explained the lawsuit against Sheng Lun International from beginning to end, he unabashedly cursed into the microphone: "These ugly onion balls!"
Qin Suisui asked with some confusion, "Professor Joyce, what happened?"
"It's nothing, oh no, it's just a small matter, but you can ignore it."
Joyce told Qin Suisui the reason for the matter.
"Sheffield, Bright from Shenglun International got in touch with Old Hunter through his connections at South American Electric. That idiot Old Hunter just called me."
Through Joyce's explanation, she learned what Shenglun International was planning.
They actually wanted to persuade Hunter, the head of the law firm Rowdon, to convince Huating Power and Shenglun International to reach a settlement as soon as possible.
"That's absolutely out of the ordinary!"
She mocked him, not without sarcasm.
"I also think that calling them an onion is an insult to Mr. Onion."
"However, South American Electric should have already convinced Old Hunter. I guess in another seven or eight hours, Old Hunter will probably contact you to persuade you to agree to the conditions proposed by Shenglun International."
"No matter what, I will never do such a thing that violates professional ethics and morality!"
"Go ahead and refuse, Sheffield. Don't worry, I'll fully support you!"
After hanging up the phone, Qin Suisui couldn't help but twitch her lips. She wondered what Shenglun International and Nanmei Electric had promised that would make Old Hunter disregard his status and make such a illogical request.
As expected, she received a call from Mr. Hunter just before she was about to leave work in the evening.
Hunter first offered his congratulations, then clarified his position, and finally mentioned Sheng Lun's proposal.
"In fact, more than a year ago, Nanmei Electric Company had already been in contact with Shenglun International. They were at the final stage of negotiations when this serious accident suddenly broke out. Nanmei Electric Company was worried that it would cause fluctuations in the stock price, so they suggested that you take the lead in persuading Huating Power to agree to the negotiations."
"Regarding the legal fees, Nanmei Electric agrees to refund you double the amount of your legal fees."
In addition, Hunter also subtly offered a condition: if the negotiations were successful, South American Electric would facilitate a resolution at the shareholders' meeting of the Law Offices of Rhodes to allow Sheffield to return to headquarters within two years.
"Regarding the position, it will only be a step up from where it is now."
"That might not work, Mr. Hunter."
Qin Suisui's voice was cold and firm.
"As for Huating Power, the lawsuit concerning Shenglun International is now under the supervision of the Huating government. Mr. Hunter, you may not be aware of the extent to which the Chinese government supervises state-owned assets. No one dares to have any other ideas about the Shenglun Electric Malaysia project case, including myself."
Even if Huating Municipal Administration hasn't reached the stage of regulation yet, she will make this happen in the next two days.
"Huating Municipal Supervision?"
Hunter hesitated for a moment, his tone tinged with regret.
"That's a real pity. But Xie Fei, regarding the Shenglun International case, I hope you can remain calm in the follow-up matters. In the next few days, the person in charge of Nanmei Electric in Z country may come to see you. You should consider how to handle it then."
Although Hunter spoke subtly, his meaning was clear: he hoped Qin Suisui would favor South American Electric's interests in the Shenglun International lawsuit.
“Mr. Hunter, I am now the lawyer representing Huating Power. If I want to continue in the legal profession, I will disregard what you just said.”
Hunter was somewhat surprised by Sheffield's bluntness. He remained silent for a moment, his tone regretful yet sincere.
"I'm very sorry, Sheffield, if you mind, please pretend I didn't say anything!"
“I accept your apology, but out of professional ethics, I must stand on the side of my client, Huating Power, in this matter.”
Hunter was still reeling after the call was hung up on him. He didn't quite understand why South American Electric was the largest electrical appliance company in the world, holding a 52% share of the global market.
His law firm, Ralph Dunn, also has investments in South American Electric.
If Sheffield really follows South American Electric's plan, with South American Electric backing her up, all the hidden barriers Sheffield will face at Lawrence Law Firm will disappear.
