Liang Shiyue had never met Gong Che before, and after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out when such an upright and dignified figure had appeared in Lu Yi's circle of connections.
Looking at her mother's little face on the tombstone, she suddenly realized that she hadn't been by Lu Yi's side for a long time.
He leaned against the edge of the monument, his expression somber, and pounded his calf before standing up.
"Lu Yi, I'm going for a walk over there."
Without waiting for Lu Yi's reply, she went down the mountain along the side path.
At the foot of the mountain, cemetery staff are craning their necks to look around.
Seeing her come down alone, I couldn't help but feel curious, "The gentleman who went in just now..."
Liang Shiyue didn't know this staff member, but she had a special feeling for this place.
She refused to leave last night, and Lu Yi vouched for her, so the person in charge here made an exception.
Liang Shiyue rubbed her swollen eyelids. "He and Young Master Yi are friends. They're talking right now. It shouldn't be long."
...
"The tough battle ahead will exceed your expectations!"
Gong Che glanced at the names on the row of tombstones, then pointed to the special position appointment letter with a red background and gold lettering.
He made countless calls last night, but Lu Yi didn't answer.
Having guessed that this kid had something up his sleeve, I waited in the office for the interrogation records to be sent over. Once I had a clear idea of what was going on, I rushed over here without wasting a moment.
Lu Yi is now quite wealthy, and with the Huo, Gu, and Fan families backing him up, naturally no one dares to touch him.
Fan Huijun is married, and Gu Huaibei has already been promoted twice, so no one dares to use Fan Huijun to cause trouble for Lu Yi.
On his way here, Gong Che carefully analyzed Lu Yi in depth.
The only person who could throw him off balance was Liang Shiyue.
Master Hong is a cunning old fox; he hasn't said a word yet.
He Mingbo, however, lacked his composure and revealed some of the truth.
In his statement, he mentioned that two major foreign capital firms were looking for opportunities to enter the domestic market.
One of them, through a dumpling brand, used a performance-based agreement to completely sideline the original founder and his supporters, and oust them from the board of directors.
The next move targets the domestic food and daily chemical industries.
Judging from the relevant information collected by their subordinates, many highly educated people are already campaigning for them.
If this trend continues, leading domestic brands will be the first to be falsely accused of harming health, causing consumer resistance.
That's when they'll start to gradually devour their rivals and seize territory!
The Huo family, on the other hand, stood in direct opposition to them.
Huo Jingxi also discovered that the number of malicious complaints and reports they had received recently was much higher than in the same period last year, exceeding 300%.
The public relations and marketing departments are currently investigating the cause intensively, but have not found anything.
“I know!” Lu Yi took the letter of appointment from his hand, opened it and glanced at it. “You got involved in the drone project just to use it as bait!”
Such lucrative and attractive bait has already revealed Green Willow Capital's true colors.
However, compared to those big players, Green Willow Capital is at best a disruptive catfish that wreaks havoc.
“Lu Yi, I don’t want to hide it from you. My original choice was Huo Jingxi, but as you have seen, his business acumen is far inferior to yours.”
"Don't blame me for treating you differently. Looking across the country, there aren't many young people who have the courage and wisdom to face the enemy head-on!"
Gong Che turned slightly and looked at the endless mountain of graves in front of him.
The rising sun shone on his crisp, wrinkle-free suit, giving it a dark gold sheen, but his expression was more solemn than ever.
Back in the day, the Huo family was incredibly powerful in Fengcheng. If Huo Xiao frowned even slightly, the ripples in both the political and business worlds would spread for days.
If it weren't for someone harboring resentment, bringing in outside help to surround and intercept the Huo family, killing the Huo family's heir, and...
They also spread false accusations, claiming that the Huo family colluded with foreign businessmen and exploited the workforce.
This sparked a wave of boycotts against Huo's products in China, leading to the removal of all products from shelves and the destruction of the factory.
Hundreds of production lines were forced to shut down, and soon after, they were all bought up by a foreign company at a pittance.
His second brother died a violent death, but the matter was left unresolved. In the chaos, Huo Xiao's legs were broken and he was covered in injuries.
Even Huo Jingxi, who ran away in a huff and broke with the Huo family, was not spared.
What kind of power could cause such a large business empire to collapse overnight?
The Gong family went to great lengths to protect him, but the elderly grandfather died before the Huo family was able to get justice.
“Lu Yi, you are in a very dangerous situation now, no less dangerous than my father was back then.”
"Liang Shiyue was kidnapped by Lu Han this time. He just wanted to make you uncomfortable, but releasing a tiger back into the mountains means there's going to be trouble overseas. Do you really want to deal with it all by yourself?"
Gong Che stood with his hands behind his back, squinting at the slowly rising sun.
As he turned around, a murderous glint appeared between his brows, and the corners of his mouth turned up. "The Fan family will certainly spare no effort, but what about the Gu family?"
"As far as I know, your fiancée is probably... Gu Huaibei isn't the kind of person who would risk everything to play along with you; he has his concerns."
Gu Huaibei had concerns.
He was concerned that even Gu Huainan had been arranged to stay far away from him, and that he was not allowed to have much contact with Lu Yi.
I'm afraid this kid might get carried away and put the entire Gu family on the spot in a "betting frenzy".
If Gu Keke can't survive this ordeal, Gu Huaibei and his father have discussed it and decided to give Lu Yi what they promised him and let him go.
The Gu family's business must also be gradually separated from the Fan family's business, and they absolutely cannot be dragged into this turmoil.
A wise person does not stand under a crumbling wall.
Gu Huaibei didn't care that people ridiculed him for being prudent and ungrateful; what he cared about was his father being looked down upon, his wife and children being homeless, and his brothers being forced to flee.
Moreover, his family's wealth and connections are not as great as the Huo Group back then.
What cards should we use to play? Can we achieve great things with just enthusiasm?
Gu Huaibei wasn't that naive.
Lu Yi shifted his gaze from Lu Gengsheng's tombstone and stared intently at him in the warm sunlight.
"Gong Che, what I earned with my life was originally just to make the Lu family look bad. I have no strategic planning skills, nor great wisdom."
"The reason why we have been able to go from nothing to where we are today is because we have designed our strategies based on human nature. What a person wants is their weakness!"
"Whatever he pursues, whether he obtains it but cannot get it, or gets it but not for long, or loses it again after a while, will become his inner demon, his prison, or even a knife stuck in his heart, a sword hanging over his head!"
Gong Che's breath hitched, and he clenched his fist behind his back.
This kid actually has such ambition and vision?
No wonder, some people envy him, and others are willing to be his stepping stones.
His blind, lame, and foolish younger brother probably still doesn't know why he got on Lu Yi's "pirate ship," right?
Lu Yi paused.
He sighed softly, "Where the opponent's Achilles' heel is is very important!"
"If you haven't figured out the other party's true nature, and can't even tell whether it's a knife in their heart or a sword hanging over their head, I will not continue to cooperate with you!"
