Chapter 310 It Was a Fake from the Start
At the police station.
Jiang Ning and Gu Lanlan have already arrived.
Gu Lanlan came alone.
Jiang Ning was different; Bai Yichen was by her side.
At first, Bai Yichen was unaware of what Gu Lanlan had done.
He had only heard that the Lu Group had leaked customer information from the FZZL system, causing a very serious negative impact.
Although the Lu Group attempted emergency public relations, the claim that it was attacked by criminals was widely regarded online as an excuse and pretext, as the real culprit had not been apprehended.
But after working with Jiang Ning to develop a plan last night, he now knows that the person who caused such a major crisis for Jiang Ning is none other than Gu Lanlan.
Gu Lanlan didn't dare to look up at Jiang Ning.
She was too ashamed to see her.
She didn't dare look at Bai Yichen.
Although Bai Yichen didn't say anything after seeing her.
But precisely because Bai Yichen hadn't told her anything, Gu Lanlan immediately understood that Jiang Ning must have already told Bai Yichen what had happened.
Gu Lanlan knew perfectly well that she was no longer worthy of being Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen's best friend.
Officer Li called the three men into his office and gave them a brief overview of the progress of their investigation.
"Gu Jinci, a genetics expert, is 31 years old. Three months ago, his body was discovered by fishermen in a small village after it drifted across the ocean..."
When Gu Lanlan heard Officer Li's words, her legs went weak and she almost knelt on the ground.
Jiang Ning glanced at Gu Lanlan without making a sound.
She realized that Gu Lanlan hadn't given up on Gu Jinci.
Or rather, there are still feelings involved.
This left Jiang Ning with mixed feelings.
At this moment, Bai Yichen gently put his arm around her shoulder.
Their eyes met.
Bai Yichen's gentle and refined gaze dispelled the gloom in Jiang Ning's heart.
At this moment, Officer Li pushed a photo in front of Jiang Ning and the others.
"This person is the deceased Gu Jinci."
When Jiang Ning and the others saw the photo, they were all dumbfounded.
"Is this Gu Jinci?"
Jiang Ning was surprised.
"Genuine or genuine."
Officer Li gave a very affirmative answer.
However, the man in the photo is not exactly the same as Gu Jinci, whom Jiang Ning and Gu Lanlan knew; they are completely unrelated.
According to Officer Li's investigation, the man who had passed away long ago was the real Gu Jinci.
The Gu Jinci who approached Jiang Ning and his group was a fake from the very beginning.
The other party borrowed Gu Jinci's identity and forged documents, their purpose was probably for this day.
"The other party is not from country A, and this person cannot be found in country A's system, which will make the investigation very difficult. It can be seen that the other party is a well-prepared commercial spy. In short... our police have done their best."
As Jiang Ning walked out of the police station, he saw Gu Lanlan burst into tears after holding them back for so long.
As if the last straw she had been clutching had snapped, Gu Lanlan fell into deep despair.
Jiang Ning looked at Gu Lanlan, who was silently shedding tears, her features distorted by anger, grievance, and pain, and felt a pang of sympathy in his heart.
However, Bai Yichen, walking beside Jiang Ning, watched coldly, as if Gu Lanlan and he were complete strangers.
The three of them walked out of the police station together and went to the parking lot.
However, they went their separate ways and went their separate ways.
Gu Lanlan drove to a bar and drowned her sorrows in alcohol.
Bai Yichen accompanied Jiang Ning to the Lu Group.
This scandal has caused Lu's Group's stock price to hit a new low, and many shareholders have already come to Jiang Ning demanding an explanation.
Although Jiang Ning initially took over the Lu Group as the largest shareholder.
Despite having shares, most of the shareholders and employees in the Lu Group are unfamiliar with her.
Now that such a big incident has occurred, few people believe that she can turn the tide single-handedly.
The entire company was in a state of panic.
"What real skills or expertise could a woman have who only gets a share of the company through divorce?"
"Our company is really unlucky to have fallen into her hands."
"Is our huge corporation going to go bankrupt?"
"This is the time when we are most likely to be acquired. If we lay off employees, we will all lose our jobs."
At the entrance to the break room, Jiang Ning was listening to the employees' complaints when suddenly a pair of large hands covered her ears.
"Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen."
Although her ears were covered, Jiang Ning still heard Bai Yichen's encouragement.
Bai Yichen indeed kept his word.
He funded the establishment of a crisis response team and used his connections to find top talents from all walks of life to help Jiang Ning. He worked on three aspects: technology, law, and public relations to salvage the image of the Lu Group as much as possible.
Meanwhile, Jiangning took the initiative to convene a shareholders' meeting to reassure shareholders.
For those shareholders who had lost confidence and were eager to sell their shares, she bought double the amount of those shares in front of all the shareholders using her personal account as proof of her commitment to the company through thick and thin.
Moreover, Jiang Ning used his own money to raise the salaries of core executives and technical personnel in order to stabilize morale.
Thus, thanks to the combined efforts of Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen, who addressed both internal and external factors, the stock price of the Lu Group stabilized and did not fall further.
However, that's where it all ends.
It was late at night.
Even in the most vibrant and bustling cities, there are times when you feel sleepy.
The entire Lu Group building was dark; everyone had already gone home after get off work.
Only the general manager's office had its lights on.
Jiang Ning stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, overlooking the city's dark night view.
She hadn't finished get off work yet, but Bai Yichen refused to leave.
But Bai Yichen had been working tirelessly for several days and nights, and had already helped her a great deal.
She adopted a tough stance and insisted that Bai Yichen must go home to rest.
Bai Yichen couldn't refuse her request, and fearing he would anger her, he had no choice but to go back alone first.
The general manager's office was completely silent.
The quieter it was, the more Jiang Ning could hear the turmoil deep within his own heart.
She and Bai Yichen had done all they could.
But Shaman Technology's acquisition spree did not stop.
Jiang Ning recalled the last time she had carefully planned and purchased shares of the Lu Group.
That time, Lu Junyan activated the poison pill plan.
Besides her being added to the whitelist, other companies that intended to take advantage of the situation were blocked.
She had originally intended to follow suit and launch a poison pill program.
However, her board of directors did not gain the approval of all shareholders, many of whom lacked confidence in her and refused to subscribe for new shares.
This setback made Jiang Ning realize that, in terms of the Lu Group, she was indeed far inferior to Lu Junyan.
As the clothes fell onto his shoulders, Jiang Ning shuddered.
"It's me..."
A deep, magnetic voice entered his ears, and Jiang Ning turned around abruptly.
Lu Junyan was standing in front of her.
After several days apart, Lu Junyan was still wearing the cheap suit he used to wear as an assistant.
Although the suit was inexpensive, when worn by Lu Junyan, his innate noble composure and imposing presence remained undiminished.
Jiang Ning stared at Lu Junyan and spoke first:
"Are you here to complete your resignation procedures?"
