Jiang Fei realized what was happening and asked, "Oh, you mean they're worried about being surrounded?"
Chen Dong agreed, saying, "Yes, if I were from the Han family, I would consider whether my family is facing the danger of being besieged. Although it's possible to be paranoid and launch reckless attacks, I think a powerful family like the Han family, which occupies an upper position in China, wouldn't act so impulsively."
"On the contrary, the more chaotic the situation, the calmer they can remain and the less likely they are to act rashly. Because once they act, it means they have lost their trump cards, especially when there are several opponents outside. They will worry about whether they can withstand the attack. They should also understand that they have the right to start a battle, but they do not have the ability to end it proactively."
Hearing Chen Dong say this, Jiang Fei felt relieved.
Actually, Chen Dong had some hidden worries in his heart about what he didn't tell Jiang Fei.
Since I had Jiang Fei deliver the message last night, and these newspapers were able to publish it immediately, it meant that they had also seen something.
The fact that several newspapers they hadn't submitted articles to also published the news made people suspect that someone was targeting them, or more likely, that someone was targeting the Han family.
If they're targeting the Han family, that's still not so bad.
However, if they are targeting me, I need to be more careful and meticulous in my future actions.
Moreover, there is a inherent danger in going against a powerful family like the Han family.
As a businessman, I shouldn't get involved in these things, but now I have no choice but to participate.
To deal with this risk, Chen Dong envisioned roughly three solutions.
The first is identity; being a Hong Kong businessman can provide a certain level of protection.
However, if you really offend certain powerful families, you could be dealt with regardless of your status as a Hong Kong businessman, or even if you are a foreigner.
The second method is to find a relatively reliable family, establish a cooperative relationship with them, and obtain their protection.
The third, and most fundamental, is to continuously strengthen one's own power, build an invincible reputation, and cultivate a wide network of connections.
In this way, one can know when to advance or retreat when encountering problems.
In short, strengthening oneself and possessing great power is the fundamental principle of doing anything.
But whether in China or abroad, there is a problem.
Of course, the situation is more serious in China, where political struggles lead to ups and downs in family fortunes.
Simply put, it's a case of "a new emperor, a new court."
Of course, I also have an advantage in this regard that others cannot match: my status as a reborn person. I can make accurate judgments about the major trends of the next few decades.
Despite the constant turmoil in officialdom, I possess advanced knowledge, which allows me to avoid many pitfalls in advance and make investments ahead of time.
Just like what Lü Buwei did in the past.
Of course, what I want to do is not to control a country, but simply to protect myself.
This was relatively easy for Chen Dong.
Chen Dong didn't actually know much about the sons of high-ranking officials and their families in China.
In his previous life, he only knew bits and pieces of information, and it had been processed many times. But this did not prevent him from comparing the information he gained in this life with his memories from his previous life to verify some of his ideas and make the most correct choices.
Combining information from his past life with what he has seen and heard in this life, Chen Dong has also developed his own secretly accepted standard: leave a way out for others.
At the same time, one must have a sense of awe and refrain from doing anything that would anger both heaven and man.
As long as you are upright, you can gain the support of many decent people.
Other ordinary people will not harbor particularly strong hostility towards them.
Chen Dong carefully read and analyzed the article's reports on the hidden details concerning the Han and Li families.
To be honest, if it hadn't been reported in those newspapers, he wouldn't have known that these two companies had done so many dirty things.
Those things were secrets belonging to the powerful and wealthy, and were not something that outsiders and ordinary people like Chen Dong and Jiang Fei could know.
Therefore, objectively speaking, these reports did provide some protection for them.
However, subjectively speaking, Chen Dong felt a sense of losing control of the situation.
Now, all he can do is try his best to calm himself down and accept the situation.
Life is unpredictable.
Even those who are reborn cannot control all information; at most, they have an additional ability to judge future trends and a memory of certain major events.
In real life, unexpected things always happen.
"Brother Fei, let's not get involved in this kind of thing anymore."
"Okay, I understand."
Although Jiang Fei had only been the leader of a small gang, he had been out there for so long that he had truly understood the dangers involved.
The Li family was just a middle-class family, at most a third or fourth-rate one, but it managed to get on the good side of the Han family and at the same time accumulated a certain amount of resources.
Compared to them, entrepreneurs like myself who have risen to prominence suddenly are far inferior.
In a sense, we were like children, while the other side was already an adult, even though its fighting power was average.
However, he remains confident that he can achieve even greater success under Chen Dong's leadership, without being swallowed up by the powerful or others.
Just then, the phone that Jiang Fei had placed beside him rang.
After listening to a few words, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
