Looking at the monitor, Meng Yanchen turned to Fan Shengmei and said, "Now we just have to see if they'll take the bait." Fan Shengmei took a deep breath and replied, "Hopefully everything will go as we wish." Their gazes returned to the screen, as if trying to see through the small image to the mysterious investment group's next move. At that moment, they both knew that a much larger storm might be brewing.
In the surveillance footage, Li Qiang, an employee controlled by Meng Yanchen, was contacting a mid-level manager of the mysterious investment group as planned. Li Qiang's expression was slightly tense; although he tried his best to conceal it, his slightly trembling fingers betrayed his unease. Following the script prepared by Meng Yanchen, he revealed details of the major project that the Fu Group was about to undertake, emphasizing that this project would have a disruptive impact on the entire industry. Upon hearing this news, the mid-level manager of the mysterious investment group on the other end of the line couldn't hide his excitement and kept pressing for more details.
After hanging up the phone, Li Qiang slumped into his chair with a sigh of relief, while Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei stared intently at the screen, observing the subsequent developments. Soon, they saw the mysterious investment group bustling with activity; senior executives held frequent meetings, issuing a constant stream of instructions. Based on the information gathered from the surveillance footage, the mysterious investment group had clearly taken the fake news seriously and was beginning to adjust their plans, diverting some of the resources and energy originally intended for the Fu Group to deal with this so-called major project.
Meng Yanchen frowned slightly, his gaze fixed intently on the flashing information on the screen, muttering to himself, "It seems the first step was successful. Now we'll see what decisions they make next." Fan Shengmei nodded gently, her eyes never leaving the screen. "Hopefully they're misled enough, so we can buy more time and opportunities."
Over the next few days, Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei closely monitored the mysterious investment group's every move. They discovered that the group had made a series of flawed decisions in response to the Fu Group's so-called major project. They hastily invested large sums of money, attempting to preemptively establish a foothold in the relevant field, while neglecting the stability of their other businesses. Simultaneously, chaos ensued in personnel allocation; some key personnel were reassigned to deal with this false threat, causing a temporary disruption to the company's internal operations.
Looking at the report he had collected on the mysterious investment group's operations, Meng Yanchen's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile: "They really took the bait. These flawed decisions will put them on the defensive." Fan Shengmei also smiled with satisfaction: "This is all thanks to you, Yanchen. Should we further amplify their mistakes?" Meng Yanchen shook his head. "No rush. We need to proceed cautiously. What's more important now is to continue digging deeper into the core information of their behind-the-scenes network of interests."
While closely monitoring the activities of the mysterious investment group, Meng Yanchen did not neglect his investigation into the core information of the network of interests behind it. He utilized his extensive connections in the business world and the Fu Group's powerful intelligence-gathering capabilities to continuously collect various clues. After arduous efforts, Meng Yanchen finally discovered a crucial piece of information amidst the complex web of clues.
He discovered that the mysterious investment group's behind-the-scenes network of interests seemed intricately linked to a hidden business alliance. This alliance consisted of established companies in the industry, ostensibly operating independently and without interference, but in reality forming a close-knit community of interests through a series of complex equity transactions and secret agreements. The core figure of this alliance was very likely the key figure behind the mysterious investment group.
Meng Yanchen told Fan Shengmei about this important discovery. Fan Shengmei's eyes flashed with surprise: "Yanchen, this is a major breakthrough! If we can find this key figure, we might be able to completely dismantle their conspiracy." Meng Yanchen nodded, his expression still serious: "That's right, but this business alliance is very well hidden. The information we currently have is not enough to confirm the identity of the key figure. We need to investigate more carefully next."
As the investigation deepened, Meng Yanchen gradually uncovered more details about this business alliance. He discovered that the alliance had been using unfair means to exclude competitors and manipulate market prices to reap huge profits. The mysterious investment group was their key accomplice in the capital market. Through a series of complex capital operations, the mysterious investment group helped this business alliance achieve covert control over multiple industries.
Meng Yanchen knew that to completely uncover this conspiracy, he needed to find conclusive evidence proving the illegal dealings between this business alliance and the mysterious investment group. He began to arrange for the Fu Group's legal team and investigators to conduct in-depth investigations of relevant companies and collect various pieces of evidence. At the same time, he also strengthened his surveillance of the mysterious investment group, hoping to find more clues related to this business alliance from their actions.
The atmosphere in Meng Yanchen's office was tense and oppressive. A large screen on the wall flashed various data and surveillance footage. Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei sat at their desks, piled high with documents and materials. They would occasionally discuss in hushed tones, then intently examine the documents in their hands, trying to find key clues from the complex information.
“Yan Chen, look here,” Fan Shengmei said, pointing to a document. “This company has unusually frequent financial dealings with the mysterious investment group, and the timing and amount of each transaction match some of the suspicious projects we’ve discovered before. Could this be the breakthrough we’re looking for?” Meng Yan Chen took the document and examined it carefully. His eyes sharpened. “Very likely. If we follow this lead, we might find more evidence.”
While Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei were fully engaged in their investigation, the mysterious investment group seemed to have noticed something amiss. They began a thorough investigation of their internal information, attempting to find the source of the leaked false information. At the same time, they intensified their surveillance of the Fu Group, trying to find flaws in Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei's actions.
Meng Yanchen learned of the mysterious investment group's actions through surveillance and realized that time was of the essence. If he couldn't find the key figures and solid evidence quickly, all his previous efforts would be in vain once the mysterious investment group discovered their plan. Therefore, he accelerated the pace of the investigation while also strengthening the protection of Fan Shengmei to prevent the mysterious investment group from harming her.
At this critical moment, Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei felt unprecedented pressure. They knew they were in a race against time. Every decision concerned the future of the Fu Group and their own fate. What consequences would the mysterious investment group's erroneous decisions bring, and who was the key figure hiding behind the scenes? Everything remained unknown. But Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei were fully prepared; whatever awaited them, they would face it bravely.
In the office, Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei continued to immerse themselves in various documents and clues, their eyes resolute and determined. Outside the window, night had fallen, and the city's neon lights flickered, as if telling the secrets and crises hidden behind this bustling metropolis. Meng Yanchen and Fan Shengmei were striving to find a glimmer of light in this darkness, attempting to uncover the truth behind the mysterious investment group.
