Chen Qizhao was indeed a little surprised when he saw this name, just like when he discovered that Qin Xingfeng was related to Lin Shizhong after his rebirth. He did not expect that Qin Yunxuan was also a shareholder of Sheng Ming.
Sheng Ming later became a pawn of Lin Shizhong. First, his resources were drained away, and then all the senior management were arranged by him. In his previous life, he had spent a lot of effort investigating the Shengming project because too much evidence had been destroyed by Lin Shizhong. On the surface, Shengming looked like it had gone bankrupt due to mismanagement, and even the information about shareholders could only be seen as changes in recent years.
That's why he didn't find the Qin family back then.
The Qin family was far inferior to giants like the Chen family in City S. Later on, it showed signs of decline, and several of its subsidiaries were acquired. Chen Qizhao didn't think that the Qin family had any relationship with Lin Shizhong. In their previous life, the two sides had no business exchanges and no overlapping property rights. Even when the Qin family suffered a market shock and fell into decline, Lin Shizhong never helped. Lin Shizhong even secretly stepped on them a few times.
Upon seeing this, Chen Qizhao immediately checked Qin Yunxuan's shareholding ratio in Shengming and found that it was quite high. With Shengming's current development momentum, there was no reason for Qin Yunxuan to give up this money-making tool and hand over the shares to others.
He did not investigate the matter in depth at that time, because the conflicts between the Qin family and his family had nothing to do with each other. But now thinking back, Lin Shizhong has never been lenient towards those he has used up. All the companies and people he had used up in the past had met with a bad ending, such as Qin Xingfeng and Fu Yanyu's financial sponsor Cheng Fangjie.
It is very likely that the Qin family is also an unlucky one in Lin Shizhong's plan.
Thinking of this, Chen Qizhao opened the address book and found Qin Yunxuan.
After Qin Xingfeng got into trouble last year, Qin Yunxuan added him as a friend and invited him out for drinks several times, but he refused. Before, it was because I was not familiar with Qin Yunxuan, but now it is different. Making friends with unlucky people can make some people even more unlucky.

There have been a lot of things going on recently, and the Chen family's physical examination was finally postponed to next month. Chen Jianhong was on a business trip and did not go home for several days in a row. Chen Shiming had a lot of things on his shoulders, and even his assistants were working around the clock, but even so, there were no problems with his work.
Some senior executives were waiting to see Chen Shiming and Chen Qizhao make a fool of themselves, but Chen Qizhao did make a scene for a few days at the beginning, and then he just slacked off and posted pictures online and became less diligent at work. Even though they knew that the Second Young Master Chen was a useless idiot, they didn't expect that he couldn't even last a week, so now they can only watch Chen Shiming thrive but can't find any fault with him.
Jiang Yuze also noticed this. Although Chen Shiming's actions were aimed at departments throughout the headquarters, his thorough investigation undoubtedly brought a lot of trouble to his actions. Many people in the company who were ready to make a move gave up, and his rhetoric failed to make these people take risks. Since the end of last year, he has been suffering continuous losses, and even General Manager Lin has expressed dissatisfaction with him many times.
Because of these things, the company's strategy for this year began to be cautious. Of the projects mentioned at the annual meeting, only a few were approved in the end, and even fewer could be tampered with.
The most important thing is that the person he originally wanted to place next to Chen Shiming couldn't get in.
Now Chen Shiming and his assistant are like an iron wall. It is very difficult to dig out some information... Then there is only one way left.
"Special Assistant Jiang?"
Jiang Yuze came back to his senses and noticed the person standing in the administrative office area. Chen Qizhao was wearing fancy clothes with two silver chains hanging on his pants. He kept his eyes on him while talking.
"You can take the remaining documents directly to the office when the time comes." Jiang Yuze said to the department manager beside him, then nodded to Chen Qizhao: "Second Young Master."
Chen Qizhao smiled and said, "Just got back from a business trip with my dad?"
"Yes." Jiang Yuze: "Second Master, what's the matter?"
"I was just passing by and wanted to say hello." Chen Qizhao held the coffee slightly and asked, "Would you like a cup?"
Jiang Yuze apologized: "I have a meeting later, so I won't bother you anymore."
Chen Qizhao snorted and walked towards his office with a very bored look on his face.
Jiang Yuze was always paying attention to Chen Qizhao's situation. Naturally, the news that Chen Qizhao had hired an assistant also reached his ears. For this reason, he often asked Xiao Jiang to test the new assistant.
As a newcomer with only two years of social experience, Jiang Yuze thought that someone who was favored by Chen Qizhao was very capable. In fact, he was just a person who only knew how to work. Unless there was work overlap, he rarely communicated with other people.
After returning to the office, Jiang Yuze asked, "Such an honest man poses no threat. Is he running the Feihong project now? Where is Chen Qizhao?"
"Yes." Xiao Jiang continued, "Chen Qizhao basically didn't care about the project with Shen's, and let his assistant run all the work. Now he comes to work half a day every day, and then goes to the parking lot outside the Chen family to practice driving. It is said that Chen Shiming found a coach for him to prepare for the driver's license test."
Jiang Yuze thought for a moment, "Don't let your guard down when you need to. Tell me everything about Chen Qizhao's situation in the company."
"I'll leave today's affairs to you. I have to go out for something." He continued: "If anyone comes to see me, just say I'm out on a business trip. Got it?"
Xiao Jiang nodded.
After leaving the company, Jiang Yuze turned a corner and changed cars in a parking lot.
In the car, he made a phone call and used voice-changing software to talk to the other end: "As I mentioned before, have you found the driver?"
"I'll arrange the rest, find a driver, and clean up my resume."
"How long? Just two months. We can't leave Chen Shiming too much time. He's investigating too many things."
Soon, the other party hung up the phone.
Jiang Yuze paused for a while after hanging up the phone. When he saw the other messages sent to his mobile phone, his brows furrowed even more.
"People like Sheng Ming are really good at causing trouble for me." He deleted the text message before starting the car and driving towards Sheng Ming's headquarters.
-*
The sun is shining brightly outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and messages are popping up on the office computer. The group of friends were already planning to go out for drinks in the evening, and the discussion was ongoing. Chen Qizhao sat leisurely at his desk, letting the "ding ding" sound of the computer audio play out, while he calmly looked at the various files on his phone amid the noise.
When he finished reading and turned around, he saw Qin Yunxuan also appearing in the group.
Qin Yunxuan was telling him that being friends was true, and he seemed to know that his hobby was drinking. Since he added him as a friend last year, he would ask him out every now and then, but Chen Qizhao always refused carelessly. Last time when Qin Yunxuan asked him out for a drink again, Chen Qizhao simply turned him down, saying that he had been too busy at home to meet up for a drink, and that Qin Yunxuan had asked him out so many times before that it would be embarrassing to refuse...
Naturally, he did not go to Qin Yunxuan's drinking party, but instead called Qin Yunxuan to the party organized by Yan Kailin.
Qin Yunxuan readily agreed. After coming a few times, he quickly established relationships with Cheng Rong, Liu Kai and others. Now there is one more person in the group.
If you want to get information out of Qin Yunxuan, your purpose will be obvious if you are too direct. Qin Yunxuan is a capable person who can squeeze out Qin Xingfeng from the Qin family. What he can do is to arrange a drinking party for this person and let him quickly get familiar with his circle, which will make it easier for him to relax his vigilance.
Although most of the friends in the group are second-generation rich people with nothing to do, there are inevitably people with good family backgrounds who can build relationships with them, especially people like him and Yan Kailin. As long as Chen Qizhao asked for permission in the group, Qin Yunxuan agreed to go two out of three times.
For example, today, just as he agreed in the group, Qin Yunxuan came out.
knock--
"Come in." Chen Qizhao said.
After Xiao Zhou entered the office, he could hear the very obvious VX notification sound in the office more clearly. He heard it when he was outside the door. With his several years of work experience, this frequent logging sound did not sound like private chats with customers, but like continuous replies in a group chat.
After being in the company for a few days, he has a new understanding of his boss.
The second prince of the Chen family has a bad reputation in the company. It is said that many people have been bullied by him. But Xiao Zhou came to work under Chen Qizhao. If the heavy workload was considered a challenge, he felt that his current boss was much better than his previous boss. At least the boss asked him to do practical work, and he learned a lot in a few days, instead of asking him to serve tea and clean every day.
"Mr. Chen, Feihong has already agreed to the cooperation plan with Shen's." Xiao Zhou handed him the document. "If everything goes well, we will draft the contract with the legal department in the next two days and sign it next week. After that, the technicians from both sides can start cooperation."
Chen Qizhao flipped through it for a few seconds, and was relieved when he was sure that the items he wanted were included in the plan. "Okay, you can confirm the rest with the legal department, and send a copy to me after the contract is finalized."
He paused after he finished speaking, "No need to send me here, I won't be here next week."
Xiao Zhou stopped and looked at him in confusion.
Chen Qizhao quickly wrote down an address on a sticky note and handed it to him.
Xiao Zhou took it and was stunned for a moment: "S University?"
The address is that of S University, a famous university in S City, and it is detailed even to the student apartment number.
Chen Qizhao said calmly, "I will go back to school next week and send you directly to S University when I have classes."
Xiao Zhou: “……?”
His boss is actually a college student!
Xiao Zhou left the office in a daze, and Chen Qizhao continued to "play with his phone". At this time, a call notification popped up. It was a private detective he specially hired, who was following Jiang Yuze. He paused for a moment and answered the call.
"What's wrong?" Chen Qizhao asked.
"Boss, there's news about the guy you asked me to follow. He changed his car today." The person on the other end of the phone continued, "The car is from another place..."
Chen Qizhao listened to the report and wrote down the license plate number.
He looked at the license plate number in front of him. This was Jiang Yuze's fourth car. He parked it in various parking lots in S City. He would change cars and outfits every time he went out. "So, where did he go this time?"
"It's in the underground parking lot of the business building on Feicui Road in the West District. However, the business building here requires registration of entry and exit information, so I can't confirm which floor he went to."
Feicui Road Business Building...
It was indeed an ordinary business building, so it was reasonable for Jiang Yuze to go there.
However, a few hundred meters behind the business building is the location of Shengming Company.
Chen Qizhao asked again: "Did you take any photos?"
"I didn't take any photos. The other party was too cautious and went straight into the underground parking lot."
"It's okay, just keep watching." The detectives Chen Qizhao hired several times before were almost discovered by Jiang Yuze, so he changed people to avoid alerting the enemy. The person he hired now won't keep a close eye on him, and he won't be able to get first-hand information, but he can pay attention to Jiang Yuze's whereabouts.
Without the key evidence, Jiang Yuze cannot be convicted.
But at least one thing is certain, Jiang Yuze himself was involved in Sheng Ming's matter.
That's easy. He was afraid that Jiang Yuze wouldn't come in.

In a private club, young people gathered together to drink.
Various famous wines were placed together, and Yan Kailin was chatting with someone, "Next week will be painful again. My brother will keep an eye on me when I return to school."
Cheng Rong said, "Didn't your brother ignore you last time?"
"It's better at home. My brother will know if I skip classes at school." Yan Kailin sighed, "It's all because of the celebration party last time. I don't know where my brother got the news from. He even came to the bar to find me. After he went back, he arranged for someone at school. I think I'm going to skip classes now."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Qizhao and said, "Brother Zhao, you have a good relationship with Brother Huai recently. See if you can say something good to me in front of Brother Huai. He has a good relationship with my brother, so his words are effective."
Chen Qizhao raised his eyes when he heard this: "What do I say?"
"That's right, Brother Huai is so good to you."
Yan Kailin said: "Your words are also effective."
"It doesn't work, does it?" Liu Kai: "I heard that the last time Qi Zhao got into a fight, it was him who called Chen Shiming."
Chen Qizhao flipped through his phone, and the last time he chatted with Shen Yuhuai was yesterday morning.
Shen Yuhuai sent him a good morning message, and he replied without further ado. For some reason, he felt a little irritated. He leaned back slightly on the sofa and glanced sideways to see Qin Yunxuan coming in from the door.
Qin Yunxuan's personality is different from Qin Xingfeng's. Qin Xingfeng is a hypocrite who pretends to be modest, while Qin Yunxuan has a generous personality and speaks directly. He gets along well with Cheng Rong and others, which is why he was able to join their group so easily. After spending two times together, Chen Qizhao had roughly judged that Qin Yunxuan was a man of some cunning, but not deep enough, and his vigilance was also average.
After three rounds of drinks, it's easy to start talking.
When Qin Yunxuan came in, he heard the topic of discussion among the group. He simply greeted them and then chose a seat close to Chen Qizhao. He picked up a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Chen Qizhao, "How are you today?"
"It's okay, just so-so." Chen Qizhao said in a flat tone, with a hint of fatigue.
Qin Yunxuan observed Chen Qizhao.
Chen Qizhao was wearing a black coat today and he looked handsome, standing out in the crowd. It was indeed a pleasant sight to sit next to him. Apart from anything else, it was indeed because of Chen Qizhao that Qin Xingfeng was put in police station. No matter how many times Qin Xingfeng appeared in front of him, he felt annoyed. Especially since this person was particularly good at showing off in front of his father, he would annoy him every time.
But he just couldn't do anything to Qin Xingfeng until Chen took action, and then this annoying person disappeared from his sight.
Putting aside other things, regardless of whether Chen Qizhao was a fool or not, just based on this point, he wanted to make friends with Chen Qizhao. He even asked about Chen Qizhao's preferences. However, every time he invited him to drink, Chen Qizhao refused.
Since Chen Qizhao asked him out a few times before, he had also observed Chen Qizhao. Others said that Chen Qizhao was a fool, but he felt that Chen Qizhao was arrogant, but had a simple personality. He said what he wanted to say directly and did not have any ulterior motives. Even his elder brother Chen Shiming dared to complain in front of them. He didn't know that family disgrace should be kept secret, and he didn't even worry that others would pass these words to Chen Shiming.
It's too simple and easy to be deceived.
But Qin Yunxuan likes this kind of personality. He has seen many hypocrites and smiling tigers. It is also relaxing to get along with a kitten like Chen Qizhao who is aggressive but has no attacking power. The key is that he can find common topics with Chen Qizhao.
It's relaxing to chat.
Chen Qizhao had just taken over the company, and occasionally when drinking, he would ask him about things the company was dealing with.
Qin Yunxuan was also happy to answer questions in order to get closer to Chen Qizhao.
As he spoke, he talked about Chen Qizhao's company.
Chen Qizhao said he had no real power in the company.
"No way, Qi Zhao, didn't you take over Fei Hong?" Cheng Rong looked over, "You should be busy all day now. My father was still praising you a few days ago."
Qin Yunxuan was a little drunk, and seeing this, he said, "Feihong is doing well, right?"
"Feihong is not easy to manage. It doesn't account for a large part of the group. It's just a new project, so the possibility of failure is greater." Chen Qizhao took two sips of wine and continued, "New projects are just testing the waters. It may take several years to produce any results. It's a bit boring."
Seeing this, Yan Kailin said, "Then why don't you ask your father to give you individual projects? Didn't you say last time that your father gave you many projects to choose from?"
"He asked me to choose, how would I know which one is good and which one is bad." Chen Qizhao sighed: "If I don't do it well, I may not get the chance to choose next time."
Cheng Rong said, "What are they? Tell me and see if the brothers can help you figure it out."
Chen Qizhao glanced at Qin Yunxuan out of the corner of his eye, and under the pretense of being drunk, he listed several projects, mixing in a lot of small projects, until the end he said: "There is also a Shengming, right? They are going to acquire Shengming. I saw it at the last meeting, and I heard from others that this project is quite big."
The bad friends started to give suggestions, some of them were familiar with this, some were familiar with that.
After a round of discussion, everyone had their own advantages. Chen Qizhao listened for a long time, and finally turned his head to look at Qin Yunxuan: "Brother Qin, can you give me some advice too?"
Yan Kailin immediately said: "Oh yes, where are the bosses of Qin's two companies."
After listening to all this, Qin Yunxuan did have his own opinions, so he talked about a few projects that he was familiar with. "And the last one... Shengming you mentioned. I used to be a shareholder of Shengming, but later I transferred my shares to my friend because I was short of money. But if you want to touch this project, it will be very difficult. I have a rumor, and I will tell you for the sake of our friendship. I heard from my friend that the internal shareholders of Shengming have disagreements recently, and it will be difficult to get the ideal price if you want to acquire it."
After hearing this, Chen Qizhao said directly: "Then let's not do this. It sounds very troublesome."
The other friends talked about other suggestions, but Chen Qizhao became more certain in his heart that Qin Yunxuan was right. He had someone check and found that Qin Yunxuan's company had problems two years ago and he had to sell shares to make ends meet. He also knew a rival company that was unlikely to have problems, a small company owned by Lin Shizhong whose accounts were unclear. Moreover, if Qin Xingfeng had any relationship with Lin Shizhong, he would not tell him the inside information just like that.
After all, if Lin Shizhong and Jiang Yuze want Chen to acquire Shengming, they have to make this matter go more and more smoothly, so that Chen will be willing to acquire it.
This matter is clear now. Lin Shizhong spent so much energy to transfer so many shares from the Qin family. He probably buried a lot of things inside Shengming. Now he wants to merge Shengming into the Chen Group, which is equivalent to sending a big chess piece into Chen. He had lost too many plans, so he was eager to achieve success and released Sheng Ming's move in advance to make up for his previous losses.
But he made this move too early, and some shareholders were out of control, which led to internal conflicts.
It is estimated that Jiang Yuze went to Shengming Company for this matter.
Qin Yunxuan noticed Chen Qizhao's gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly feel that too much power is not a good thing." Chen Qizhao clinked glasses with Qin Yunxuan, "The more capable, the more work. People in high positions should always do more."
If Chen wants to acquire Shengming, Shengming must coordinate well.
That's easy. Since Sheng Ming's shareholders are arguing, wouldn't it be better to spread some false news to make Sheng Ming argue even more fiercely?
Being in a high position with great power, capable people should do more work. Let Lin Shizhong spend more money and let Jiang Yuze do more useless work... He would be happy to do that.
