That day.
Du Shaojie just came out of the training center and saw more than a dozen people surrounding him.
Wang Yongli and others were very nervous and immediately protected him in the middle, and at the same time called the staff of the training center to come for support.
However, these people did not do anything radical, but stood a few meters away from Du Shaojie, and then opened the banner in their hands.
The banner read "Return my hard-earned money!"
"Everyone, are you mistaken? We don't owe you money."
Chu Linlin, who got the news, quickly led people out and talked to these people.
"It was you who defeated Li Changsong and others with despicable means, otherwise they would not have run away. Now you can't find them, you must pay them back, because you are responsible."
The leader was a middle-aged woman in her 40s. There was no logic in her words, but they sounded justified.
Du Shaojie was so angry that he immediately asked Wang Yongli to call the police.
These people may also know that their logic of making trouble is wrong, and when they heard that someone called the police, they left quickly.
To be honest, if they were to cause trouble in the company of Li Changsong and others, it would be understandable, but it was completely unreasonable to cause trouble in Du Shaojie's training center.
Du Shaojie asked Chu Linlin and the others to go back, and he walked towards the car parked outside.
He didn't know if anyone had instructed what happened today, but he felt very bad. This shows that the matter is not over yet, and there are still people lurking in the dark to make trouble for him.
But it's a bit of a joke to want to attack me by this means?
The two cars drove away from the training center one after the other. Du Shaojie didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit dull.
When he got home, he called Huang Yong and asked him to check whether there was a mastermind behind those who made trouble downstairs in the training center today?
Huang Yong quickly replied to him, saying that the troublemakers were instigated by someone, but that person was very cautious and did not leave any useful information.
"So you can't find the person?"
"Yes, after all, we have limited manpower, and it's not a big case, so we can't issue a joint investigation notice."
Huang Yong said with regret that this matter would stop here for the time being. If the other party makes trouble again, there might be a way to catch him.
Du Shaojie thanked him and put down the receiver.
He went through the people who had a grudge against him in his mind. The first suspect must be Li Changsong and others. However, Li Changsong's gang had already scattered, most of the backbones were arrested, and only a few people ran away.
The incident happened suddenly, and Li Changsong and his gang had to cover up their whereabouts, so they might not be in the mood to retaliate against him at this time.
In addition to Li Changsong and his gang, he couldn't think of anyone else who would do this.
In the next few days, a small number of people still went to various stores to hold banners and make trouble. Because of precautions, these people were quickly driven away by the police, and the leader was taken to the police station for investigation.
Just like the first time, a group of guys who lost their money and were instigated to come here regardless of anything. In the end, they still held the hope of getting their losses back.
The instigator finally revealed his true colors, but he was very cunning and left Guangzhou in advance.
"This man is called Hu Jin. His household registration information shows that he is from North China. He went to the south to work a few years ago. According to our investigation, this man does not belong to any company and his interpersonal relationships are unknown."
Huang Yong told Du Shaojie that people like Hu Jin are either doing odd jobs outside or are not following the right path.
Even if such a person is caught, it is not necessarily possible to dig out any useful information. Anyway, he will work for money, and it is basically impossible for him to know who is behind the scenes.
Du Shaojie did not pursue the matter anymore. It was a trivial trick that did not matter. He would find a way to figure it out when he had the chance in the future.
Everyone thought it was a farce and that it would be over once it was over. Unexpectedly, an article in a Hong Kong newspaper put Du Shaojie on the cusp of the storm.
The article described in detail the whole process of the battle between [Northwest Noodle House] and the Shanzhai Store, [Xichuan Restaurant] and [Sichuan Restaurant], and also dug up the grievances between Du Shaojie and Li Changsong.
This part of the report was normal, but the next part was quite outrageous.
The article said that Du Shaojie had set up a trap for Li Changsong and others from the beginning, and pulled them into the trap step by step. When Li Changsong and others went bankrupt, Du Shaojie quickly embezzled their assets and made a fortune.
It is said that Li Changsong and others did not take much money with them when they ran away, and the bulk of it went to Du Shaojie.
At the end of the article, the projects in which Du Shaojie participated, such as [Yuedong Entertainment] and [Resort], were cited, implying that he was a serious entrepreneur on the surface, but in fact he was a "big boss".
These true and false information can be very misleading. Under the spread of people with ulterior motives, this article in the Hong Kong newspaper quickly fermented in the mainland and attracted a lot of attention.
Those "gamblers" whose funds were taken away by Li Changsong and others seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and began to gather in Shenzhen, holding banners and making trouble downstairs of the headquarters building every day.
Moreover, many people spread the word privately that Du Shaojie was a catering giant on the surface, but in fact he made his fortune by doing shady business.
"Boss Du, we are in a passive position now. We have no way to dispel the rumors, and we can't find the source of the rumors."
Du Shaojie came to Shenzhen, and Meng Gang and others seemed very depressed.
The only confirmed source of information now was the newspaper in Hong Kong, but it was just a tabloid, and suing them would not be worth the loss.
"We can't let them go! I've asked Dingxin International to handle this matter. We must sue them. Ladies and gentlemen, someone has done so many things behind the scenes. It's impossible that they don't have a purpose. They will take the initiative to jump out."
Du Shaojie's mentality is pretty good. After calming down, he realized that this matter is not simple.
The other party is obviously engaged in a public opinion war in an attempt to discredit himself and the company.
Then, the other party must have a backhand next, and he just needs to wait patiently.
A general meeting was held in the company. Du Shaojie stabilized the emotions of the employees, and then he went to the city. He himself is also a well-known investor in the city. This time his attitude is very firm, requiring the relevant parties to solve the unreasonable troubles of those people.
The city attaches great importance to it and is determined to crack down on these troublemakers.
None of these troublemakers are innocent. Why didn't they consider the risks when they were rushing for high interest rates? Now that the thunder has exploded, it's like a mad dog biting everywhere. Why did they know it now?
Under the heavy blow, such things finally died down.
"Ajie, you solved the troublemakers. To put it bluntly, it is illogical for them to ask you for money. But you did invest in [Yuedong Entertainment] and [Resort]. Now some people say you are the KTV king. It is difficult for you to defend yourself."
That day, Cai Jing called Du Shaojie out for tea and naturally talked about his predicament.
Du Shaojie's current predicament is that he cannot defend himself. Someone is guiding public opinion and wants to make him a big boss involved in the gray industry. It is not a good thing to be labeled like this, and it is not good for future development.
"Sister Cai, look, now even you say so, how many people outside are willing to believe me? So, if I want to prove my innocence, the best way is to withdraw from the KTV and resort projects, right?"
Du Shaojie has always said that he is not a businessman, but he has decades of experience in his mind and is never confused about major issues.
Again, he doesn't believe that someone did so many things just to vent his anger. The black hand behind the scenes must have some purpose. After so long, he has slowly seen the doorway and is just waiting for the day when the other party will show his cards.
Cai Jing was thoughtful. Du Shaojie's words had actually made it very clear that the mastermind behind all this was after his shares in the [Yuedong Entertainment] and [Resort] projects.
"Do you know who did it?"
Cai Jing's expression was very serious. No matter how powerful the other party was, she would always stand on Du Shaojie's side.
"I don't know, but the other party should show up soon."
Du Shaojie shook his head slowly. He had a hunch that the other party should be very difficult to deal with,
but no matter what, he would make the other party pay a high price.
The two separated after coming out of the cafe. Cai Jing returned to the company, and Du Shaojie took Wang Yongli and others through the customs to Hong Kong.
"Recently, Winnie has been following this lawsuit. The lawyer said that we will definitely win this case. This is a bit of a high price to pay."
Liang Meiqin met Du Shaojie and immediately reported the matter of the lawsuit.
Du Shaojie nodded. It was okay to spend some money. If nothing was done, such things would inevitably happen again in the future.
Killing one to warn the hundred is better than endless in the future.
"Don't worry about spending money. I just want them to pay the price."
Du Shaojie shook his head, indicating that he would pursue it to the end.
Liang Meiqin knew the other party's attitude, so she stopped talking and reported the company's recent situation.
After listening, Du Shaojie didn't say anything and went directly to his villa.
"Boss, do you want to find a few people to teach that newspaper a lesson?"
Zhong Qing made a suggestion to clean up the tabloid.
Du Shaojie waved his hand, signaling the other party not to mess around. He is now at the cusp of the storm. If he does this, wouldn't it confirm some speculations from the outside world?
If problems can be handled by normal means, don't use tricks. This is his consistent principle.
At night.
Liang Meiqin massaged him while saying, "Why don't you withdraw your investment from the entertainment industry to avoid being attacked all day long."
"Yes, this is exactly what some people want. Even if I want to withdraw my investment, I can't let them succeed, otherwise I will be very unhappy."
Du Shaojie has his own persistence. If he can't handle this, will someone want his catering company in the future, and he will have to swallow his anger and offer it with both hands?
However, he had not told Pang Weidong and Xu Bo about this matter. He was waiting for some people to come forward.
The next day.
Du Shaojie suddenly received a call from Xu Bo, saying that he had something important to discuss with him.
"Then, you and Dongzi should come to Xiangjiang. Let's go to the sea to have some fun and clarify things by the way." (End of this chapter)
