“This is my secret, there’s no need to tell you. This is your woman, right?” Lu Feng glanced at Su Yourong and said, “Return her to her rightful owner, please don’t bother me.”
President Chen stepped forward, ready to make a move. Upon seeing this, Lu Feng hurriedly stood up, also looking ready to strike. Behind her, a group of people were also watching intently, ready to attack at any moment.
Ms. Chen's hand froze in mid-air. She knew that even if she killed Lu Feng today, it would be of no use. Tomorrow there would be Zhang Feng, Li Feng, and Wang Feng.
"Go back and tell the person behind me, 'You're messing with me, aren't you? Hong Kong isn't that big, we'll run into each other all the time. Take your time.'" After saying that, Mr. Chen turned around and left.
Su Yourong hurriedly followed. Just as President Chen stepped out the door and saw her follow, he raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
"Smack!"
The slap was exceptionally loud, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground, seeing stars.
"roll!!"
Su Yourong felt half of her face was numb. She took a deep breath, struggled to stand up, and followed him.
It was almost 1 p.m., and half of Hong Kong's financial world was in an uproar. Everyone in the industry knew that Chen's Capital was beyond saving.
The most terrifying thing is that despite having such a wide network of connections, President Chen couldn't get the funds at this crucial moment. Many of the bigwigs who had promised to embezzle funds from Chen Shufeng a few days ago are now keeping quiet about it.
Tang Zhongren sat in his office looking at these reports, completely stunned. Only one question remained in his mind: How could this be?
He was perfectly fine yesterday, acting like a member of high society. How did he change overnight?
The office door was pushed open, and President Tang rushed in, asking, "Have you already transferred that two hundred million?"
Tang Zhongren nodded blankly, still holding a sliver of hope, and said, "It should be fine, right? President Chen is a very influential figure in the financial world. Two hundred million is not much for her. Besides, she is the founder and holds a lot of shares."
"You don't know anything! You lent the money to Chen's Capital. What does it have to do with Chen Shufeng personally? I just asked some friends in the financial industry, and they told us to withdraw the funds as soon as possible. Chen Shufeng has been abandoned by the industry, and no one dares to lend her any money!" President Tang's voice was full of anxiety.
"What? Just Lu Feng can cause such a commotion?" Tang Zhongren's pupils dilated, his face filled with disbelief.
"This isn't that simple, call her right now!"
Tang Zhongren didn't care about anything else at this moment and hurriedly called President Chen's office, but no one answered. When he called again, the line was busy. Chen Shufeng's phone was being called non-stop.
"It's over! It's over!"
Mr. Tang sat down, his eyes vacant, looking at his son with exasperation. "You! How much do you spend a month on food, drinks, entertainment, and chasing girls? You've only just started trying, and you've already lost two hundred million!!!"
Tang Zhongren also felt wronged, thinking how ambitious he was, and argued, "It's okay, the money will just come back a few days later. Chen's Capital can't possibly go bankrupt, right?"
"We are a listed company, and I was elected by the board of directors. Don't you even understand this?" President Tang wanted to strangle him. He glanced at the office door, which was not closed, and hurriedly stood up to close it. Now he could only hope that no one would notice and that he could get through this peacefully.
Instead of returning to the company, President Chen went home and sat in front of the phone, making calls to various CEOs, including some medium-sized companies that had previously tried to curry favor with her.
As long as money comes in and she can withstand this wave in the short term, she will win.
He even called the shareholders, asking them to lend the company some money temporarily. Mr. Chen made all sorts of promises, but as shareholders, who would care whether there was one more or one less person on the board of directors?
Chen Shufeng will leave tomorrow, and Lu Feng will come in. They don't care. What they care about is how much their stocks are worth and how much wealth they have.
The financial report for last year, which was originally scheduled to be released in the afternoon, had to be released ahead of schedule due to the uproar from the outside world. It was released to the public before the market opened, and the company kept making appeals, hoping that investors would give Chen's Capital some confidence.
At 2 p.m., President Chen returned to the company and sat there alone, looking somewhat lonely. Su Yourong stood beside her, and at that moment, she felt like the most miserable person, abandoned by the whole world.
However, she was not the worst off. Half an hour before the market opened, it was revealed that Tang Zhongren, the vice president of the shipbuilding group, had embezzled 200 million yuan and lent it to Chen's Capital for bridging purposes.
The news caused another uproar.
The market opened at 2:30 p.m. Ten minutes before the opening, the traders sat down at their desks, looked at each other, and said, "Today is going to be really exciting. Who knows what will happen this afternoon?"
"Even if aliens came, I wouldn't be surprised. A mainland Chinese man, because an old woman stole his woman and blocked his company's financing, started to retaliate, inexplicably dragging an entire shipping group down with him." The trader smacked his lips as he spoke. This story was simply fantastical!
