Everett had previously planned to bribe Ye Chen to release House as well.
Seeing Ye Chen's resolute attitude, he naturally couldn't back down either.
Otherwise, if he showed weakness, the initiative would completely be in Ye Chen's hands.
At that point, getting House out would be troublesome, and he would probably have to pay a heavy price.
"Why don't I realize there's a big problem?"
Upon hearing Everett's threatening words, Ye Chen calmly countered with a question.
It's true that things can easily go wrong when you're abroad, in a place where you don't know anyone or anything.
But things are different now. I've built a strong network of contacts here, and yesterday I even met the local president and received his promise.
"Mr. Ye, you're still young and don't understand the reasons behind this."
Everett continued with a pointed reply.
"Never cut off someone's source of income, otherwise..."
A hint of threat had already appeared in Everett's eyes.
If it were one of Ye Chen's other employees who offended him today, he wouldn't care.
But the technology House possesses is extremely important to his company!
He wasn't doing it for House, but for himself, for his own financial future!
"What you say makes some sense, but when it comes to House, there's absolutely no room for negotiation!!!"
Ye Chen's domineering reply.
If it were someone else, there would be room for negotiation.
But House? That's absolutely impossible! He actually tried to harm Ling'er, how could Ye Chen possibly let him get away with it?!
The safety of his loved ones is a bottom line that Ye Chen absolutely cannot tolerate!
"Good, very good, excellent, Ye Chen, I hope you remember these words!!!"
"Don't regret it later!"
Everett completely lost his temper, pointing at Ye Chen and finally threatening him.
After saying that, Everett angrily turned and left.
Ye Chen also planned to return to the villa.
Just as Ye Chen closed the villa door, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.
Ye Chen took out his phone in surprise; it was a message from the game.
He clicked into the game, and a message immediately popped up.
【bite】
[Challenge issued: Tonight's dinner party will be a memorable birthday celebration for Ling'er. We'll not let House off the hook; we'll send him to Siberia so he can experience a "new life."]
[Challenge Reward: 6% stake in Kering Group]
Challenge Reward: 245 Experience Points
[Challenge Reward: 142 Mall Points]
"6% of Kering Group's shares?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself.
This is a great reward.
Previously, Ye Chen already owned 23% of the shares in Kaiyun Group, making him the third largest shareholder of Kaiyun Group.
If we add that 6%, he might be able to go even further!
"Brother-in-law, what happened?"
Su Ling'er came out.
As soon as they got back, the girls went to their room to try on their new clothes.
"It's nothing, you guys take a rest, we'll go out for dinner in a bit."
Ye Chen spoke.
Ye Chen started preparing for Ling'er's birthday party yesterday.
After giving his instructions, Ye Chen sent a message to the bodyguards of his Yinglong Security Group, asking them to find a way to send the middle-aged black man to Siberia immediately through special channels.
Half an hour later, as darkness fell, Ye Chen, Su Ningshuang, Su Ling'er, and the others left the mansion and headed to the restaurant they had booked.
Meanwhile, Everett returned to the hotel with a livid face.
Although he threatened Ye Chen defiantly before leaving, dealing with a shareholder of Kaiyun Group was no small matter and would be quite troublesome.
Everett lit a cigar, sat on the sofa, and made plans.
After an unknown amount of time, Everett suddenly stood up.
He remembered.
His good friend Orlando seems to know a top executive at Kering.
He vaguely remembered Orlando mentioning it once, but he couldn't recall the specific position the other person held within Kering.
What if the other party is even more powerful than Ye Chen within the Kaiyun Group?!
That makes things simple.
He asked the other party to put pressure on Ye Chen, and estimated that House would be back soon.
Without hesitation, Everett immediately called his friend Orlando. After the call connected, Everett anxiously asked...
“I do know such a person, his name is Gerald Herbert.”
Orlando gave an affirmative answer.
"What is his position within Kering Group?"
Gerald Herbert is the second-largest shareholder of Kering Group.
"The second largest shareholder, that's wonderful, that's absolutely wonderful!"
Everett was ecstatic.
The problem is now solved.
Ye Chen seems to be the third or fourth largest shareholder of Kaiyun Group, but whichever it is, he is definitely not as good as the second largest shareholder.
If we can persuade the second-largest shareholder to step in, we can definitely outmaneuver Ye Chen.
"I'd like to ask Gerald Herbert to do me a favor, is that even possible?"
Everett asked.
"If it were someone else, the chances of getting help from Gerald Herbert would be slim."
Orlando's confident answer:
“But you are my friend. If I step in and you offer him something nice, Gerald Herbert will definitely give me face.”
"That's great! Please help me contact them."
Everett said eagerly.
"good."
Orlando took action.
He first sent Gerald Herbert's contact information to Everett, and then contacted Gerald Herbert himself to discuss the matter.
"You can contact him now; I've already spoken to him."
A few minutes later, Orlando messaged Everett, "It's done."
Everett breathed a sigh of relief, then eagerly dialed Gerald Herbert's number.
