"What the hell are you thinking? Do you think I'm the kind of person who would kill someone?" Liu Zhennan said irritably. "We're all businessmen. To put it bluntly, it's all about money. Let's get together and talk it over."
"There's a business networking event coming up soon, should we invite him?"
"Not only should we invite that President Lu, but we should also get Hao Dongren to act as a peacemaker. He's a coward, but we can use him."
"Alright, I haven't been sleeping well these past few days. I always feel anxious, like something big is about to happen!" President Cui said, his face pale and panting heavily, looking extremely frightened. "Especially today's newspaper, it's almost revealed everything. Where did he get the information?"
"Shut up. If you don't have this much guts, you shouldn't be out here doing this. Go get things done," Liu Zhennan said in a deep voice.
The local business community has been discussing this all day. It's been a hot topic in private, and everyone knows what happened, but no one can talk about it openly.
Many people are already saying that Lu Feng, an outsider, only has the stomach to swallow this piece of cake, and many people don't think he has the stomach to swallow it.
An invitation was left at the hotel reception. Lu Feng went for a run outside, and when he returned, the receptionist handed it to him.
"It was brought by a gentleman. There's a business networking event at the activity center by Tianlan Lake tonight at seven o'clock. That gentleman said you must go, as it can resolve the issue you want to resolve, so you don't have to go to the reporters and have them say sarcastic things in the newspapers. Those are his exact words," the receptionist hurriedly explained.
"Okay, I understand!"
"Also, many newspapers have wanted to interview you this year and have left their phone numbers here. We hope you will call them back."
"No need, I won't be giving interviews today. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Lu Feng said as he went upstairs.
As expected, the media is very powerful. As soon as the newspaper was published, an invitation arrived immediately. Just as I reached the door of my room, the door to Zhang Fengxia's room next door opened.
"President Hao called this afternoon!"
"How was it? Did the TV interview go well?" Lu Feng asked.
“Someone from Wantong Industry contacted him. He will also be attending that social gathering tonight and will act as a mediator between you and Wantong Industry.”
"What the hell?" Lu Feng frowned and asked, "He agreed?"
"He said he was threatened, and the other party implied that they wanted to harm him. He was scared, so he agreed."
"Damn it!" Lu Feng slapped his thigh in anger. Cooperating with such a spineless coward was a real pain in the ass. He sighed and said, "Does he mean to abandon his factory and his market? Wait for bankruptcy? Or wait to be acquired at a low price?"
“How would I know? There’s something else. That report was so powerful that my uncle called me and asked if I wrote it. I admitted it. He said we should be careful with everything we do. What we see is just the tip of the iceberg. We need to know our limits.” Zhang Fengxia finished speaking and looked at Lu Feng.
"What do you mean? Is your uncle involved in this?"
"How would I know? But it sounds like it involves a lot of things. What are your plans now? Why do you still want such a large piece of land and what other conditions do you want?"
Lu Feng nodded and said, "That's right. I'm actually more confident now in making Wantong Industry submit. Am I afraid of someone with shoes on when I have nothing to lose? Come on, let's go to the banquet and eat and drink for free!"
In the evening, Lu Feng rented a BMW and drove straight to Tianlan Lake.
Winter is slowly receding, and the air is filled with the scent of spring. You can clearly feel the restlessness of spring. It's not so cold anymore, and it's a bit damp. You can feel comfortable wearing just a few light clothes.
Even in the darkness of night, a glimpse of green can be seen; Tianlan Lake has thawed, and across from it stands an activity center, its bright lights illuminating the lake water with even greater brilliance.
Luxury cars have been gathering one after another. Most of the people who came tonight were actually curious to see if this out-of-towner named Lu Feng had three heads and six arms to dare to do such a thing.
Hao Dongren had arrived, dressed in a suit and eating. His expression wasn't very cheerful; he looked around with a hint of helplessness.
He was unwilling to let his factory slowly collapse in the next few years, but after learning some inside information, he was even more afraid that something bad would happen tomorrow.
He was like a fish on a chopping board, and he wished he could be as carefree as Lu Feng. He wasn't cowardly; he just didn't have the powerful connections that Lu Feng had.
