As soon as the statement was released, many people began to wonder if it had any legal effect.
The local court then ruled that Lu Feng had absolute control over Jiaming Foods. Local business circles were saying that the management had been colluded with others and was now a united front, so Lu Feng could not issue any substantive orders and had been sidelined.
In the afternoon, Lu Feng took the company seal to the bank and froze all of the company's accounts, prohibiting transactions. Although a few factories would not be able to pay wages in the short term, it was not a big problem.
Lu Feng was vying for the time to make the payment, while the other party was also trying to do the same. The contract had already been signed, and the transaction would be considered complete once the money arrived in the account. If Lu Feng wanted to back out, he would have to hire several top lawyers in Hong Kong to argue his case in court.
This was not the situation Lu Feng wanted, so he simply froze the account to prevent such a thing from happening. Judging from the current situation, the other party had no chance of winning at all, and now all that was left was to use the management to blackmail Lu Feng.
In the evening, the Public Security Bureau issued a warning, stating that due to the turmoil in the board of directors of Jiaming Foods, the security around the company was unstable. The Bureau would strengthen protection for the company's production and severely crack down on theft of company property, burglary, and gang fights.
The report also disclosed two cases of warehouse managers at Jiaming Food Factory colluding with outsiders to steal finished beverage products from the factory warehouse.
Whether it's the court or the police, speaking out at this time is very delicate. Jiaming Foods is a major taxpayer in the city this year and has donated a lot, including repairing a road, building a library, and donating a large number of tables and chairs.
According to locals, Jiaming Foods has a very close relationship with the local government and has made outstanding contributions in many aspects, including creating jobs, boosting the economy, and paying taxes.
Lu Feng and Gao Zhiwei are very active. Lu Feng is a local, so if the job is handed over to those people from Hong Kong, it will still be Lu Feng who does the work. Everyone present understands this.
Mr. Liu had been doing very well, and Jiaming Foods was already a sitting duck. However, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse in just one day, which was something he hadn't expected. In particular, the accounts were frozen, and money couldn't be transferred at all.
"The situation is very bad. It may have already failed. I underestimated Lu Feng's power in this area. He is practically a local tyrant. This place has its own underground rules. Now, all we can do is to connect with the management. President Su, you should prepare yourself. I also need to prepare myself. I don't know if he is petty. If he is, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave this city unscathed."
On the phone, Mr. Liu's voice was very low. He could tell that there were no problems with the equity transaction, even though it was a normal transaction. The other party could back out if they wanted to. The power they displayed today had left him with no way out.
On the other end of the phone, Su Yourong's face was very ugly. She did not expect this dilapidated city to give her such a blow. The forces in first-tier cities are intertwined, and no one can cover up the whole thing. Everyone has their own constraints.
In such a small place, a large enterprise like Jiaming Foods is completely unchecked, giving it a somewhat localized, intimidating feel.
No wonder Lu Feng wasn't in a hurry when he came back. He ate first and went home. It turns out I was the one who was trapped!
“He asked you to dinner tonight. Talk to him, make peace with him, and he won’t have to put in any effort. We can withdraw, but we want the factory. If we can’t get twelve, we’ll take six, and we’ll want half the usage rights. We’ll build it ourselves and put it under Jiaming Foods’ name!” Su Yourong took a step back.
"Okay, I'll try my best to talk to him. I still have leverage in negotiations."
“Keep collecting information on the financial issues. Tell him we won’t sue in this province, we’ll go to the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region. He’ll be very powerful in three to five months, but once he’s convicted in six months, he can expect to go to jail. The right to use the six factory buildings is my final request, understand?”
The two chatted for more than ten minutes before the call ended.
Su Yourong sat on the sofa, lighting a cigarette, feeling somewhat annoyed. Over the years, Lu Feng had been the most difficult person to deal with in her mind.
At 7 p.m., in a private room at the Tianyue Hotel, Lu Feng had a small plate of pickled vegetables in front of him, which he picked up and put in his mouth, making a crunching sound.
Zhang Fengxia sat opposite, holding a folder, occasionally glancing down to write something, and said without looking up, "President Cui wants money from you."
“Tell him that if he asks for money again, I won’t give it to him. What’s wrong with him? All he talks about all day is money. He can’t do anything right. Tell him to think about how much he has done next time he asks for money. After the acquisition is completed, he will not be shortchanged by a single penny,” Lu Feng said in a deep voice.
"After President Su arrived, she didn't leave the house. I don't know what she was doing. This woman seems strange."
"You just do your thing." Lu Feng picked up a piece of Laba garlic and put it in his mouth, crunching it loudly.
Gao Zhiwei sat to the side, unable to get a word in edgewise. He also wanted to invest in Jiafeng Electronics, even if it was just 0.1% of the shares, but Lu Feng refused.
He looked at Zhang Fengxia, and his intuition told him that Zhang Fengxia would definitely be a very important member of Lu Feng's business empire in the future, while he would be guarding Jiamei Foods.
It wasn't until after 7 p.m. that the door to the private room was opened, and Mr. Liu walked in. He was dressed casually and looked quite refined. After entering, he glanced around and his gaze landed on Lu Feng. He said, "Mr. Lu, we've known each other for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you today."
"Although this is my first time meeting you, your methods have certainly opened my eyes. Please sit down." Lu Feng placed the menu in front of him and said, "You are the host, so you can order."
Mr. Liu was slightly taken aback and said, "Mr. Lu issued a bunch of statements this afternoon, as if you were the boss!"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony. Waiter, bring one table as usual," Lu Feng called out.
