102: Chapter 102 Wang Shuo is missing?

"Miss, if you want to come again next time, please notify us in advance so I can make preparations."

Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. Headquarters, third floor.

Liu Yemei furrowed her beautiful brows, looking at Chen Xin, who was sitting in the office chair, and said with some helplessness. In front of this young lady, she couldn't be too cold.

As for Han Xiaoxin, he had been kicked out the moment Chen Xin arrived.

"I know." Chen Xin replied. As for how much of it she took to heart, that depended on Miss Chen's mood.

Chen Xin fiddled with the computer keyboard a few times, looked at the dense code on the screen, and asked, "Are you getting used to staying here?"

Hearing the young lady ask her, Liu Yemei felt a warmth in her heart. Her brows relaxed, and she nodded, saying, "I'm getting used to it. Everything is starting from scratch, which is a novel experience I haven't had before."

"And after experiencing it? You know, I asked you to come over not just to let you experience how to operate a small company."

Chen Xin looked up at Liu Yemei and said softly, her tone not cold, without the feeling of keeping people at a distance. It seemed this was the real Chen Xin hidden beneath her iceberg exterior.

"I know." Liu Yemei nodded gently. "I am very clear about the purpose of the young lady asking me to come over, but..."

Hesitating for a moment, Liu Yemei continued, "Forgive my bluntness, Miss, but I don't think Wang Shuo is suitable for running a company. He might be a programming genius, and he might have many wild ideas, but these cannot bring this company back to life."

Yes, in Liu Yemei's heart, this company was already dead.

Even though Wang Shuo had climbed the high branch of the Chen Group and signed a mutual aid agreement with them, with the Chen Group endorsing Frontier Technology, it still couldn't change the fact that the company was dying a slow death.

The reason why she still worked wholeheartedly for Wang Shuo, meticulous and conscientious, was only because she came here at the request of the young lady in front of her.

She had never seen this young lady ask anyone in such a tone before, let alone herself... who was unable to refuse any request from this young lady anyway.

"It doesn't matter." Chen Xin said calmly. "I have anticipated all of this, and aren't these the reasons why I asked you to come and help him? If you can't do it, I can't think of anyone who can."

Liu Yemei was slightly silent, then nodded helplessly.

"How is the company situation now?" Chen Xin couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, seeing that even Liu Yemei, whom she had always relied on, was so pessimistic.

"Very bad." Liu Yemei shook her head, completely losing the spirit of having everything under control that she had in front of Wang Shuo. In fact, in front of the young lady, she had nothing to hide.

"It has been a month since the company was registered and established, and many things are still a mess. The company's business direction has been slow to be decided. Up to now, apart from signing an authorization contract with the Chen Group, the company has not carried out any other business. Although it is a technology company, there has been no movement regarding the company's main products, and even the company's business scope has not been clarified. The company's personnel structure is also very unhealthy; there are no detailed rules and regulations, the division of labor among employees is very unscientific, and the personnel ratio is very unreasonable. More importantly, because the company has no business, there is no source of income to maintain the company's operations. According to the current situation, this company is likely to go bankrupt within two to three months, and will be insolvent."

In fact, three months was an overestimation by Liu Yemei. According to her assessment, if things continued as they were, it would be a miracle if the company could last for one month.

Chen Xin did not expect the situation to be so serious. Anyone who saw this situation would think the company was hopeless. No wonder Liu Yemei had no confidence.

"Miss, I feel that Wang Shuo doesn't care about this company at all." Liu Yemei finally spoke her mind.

"He will." Chen Xin thought of Wang Shuo's money-loving appearance and couldn't help but smile slightly. "Even for the sake of his debts, he will desperately maintain this company."

W City center, a high-end entertainment club.

"So, this company called Frontier Technology was really just established not long ago?"

In the top-floor office, a young man was sitting on a sofa, with a small tablet in front of him showing a Middle-aged man. The voice came from the tablet.

This young man was Matsumoto Bieyun, and this Middle-aged man was none other than Matsumoto Bieyun's father, Matsumoto Aoyama.

"I guarantee it with my pocket money, Father."

"Is the news accurate?" The Middle-aged man opposite asked indifferently.

"Naturally accurate. This is news I personally probed at Frontier Technology Company." Matsumoto Bieyun said with some pride. "Father, you also know that what I am best at is chatting with young girls. It just so happens that the receptionist of this company is a young girl who is not worldly-wise. A few words were enough to get her to say everything."

"According to her, she was hired personally by Wang Shuo and has stayed in the company ever since she came in, never going anywhere. And when she joined the company, it was just being renovated. It was renovated for two weeks, and the renovation time was exactly after the press conference."

"What is the number of employees in this company?" Matsumoto Aoyama continued to ask.

"I asked about this too." Matsumoto Bieyun took a sip of wine and said carelessly, "There are only a few cats and kittens. Besides Wang Shuo and the receptionist, there are only two people."

"Names."

"Uh..." Matsumoto Bieyun put down his wine glass in astonishment. He didn't expect his father to ask in such detail, and was suddenly at a loss.

"This... I didn't ask."

"Hmm." Unexpectedly, Matsumoto Aoyama didn't lecture him this time, just nodded and asked, "Have you seen this Wang Shuo?"

"I have." Matsumoto Bieyun nodded honestly. After the previous commotion, he didn't dare to be too proud. Who knew what his father would ask next? He answered honestly, "This Wang Shuo is only seventeen or eighteen years old. I heard he is a student in some department at Huazhong University. For this kind of person, I don't really believe he could create a whole system by himself."

"Don't be too confident." Matsumoto Aoyama snorted. "How many times have I told you? When doing things, consider them comprehensively. Think about what ordinary people cannot think of. Do not belittle yourself, and even more, do not be overly confident."

Matsumoto Bieyun dared not refute and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"However, you were not wrong this time." Matsumoto Aoyama thought for a moment and asked, "Regarding this company, combined with the information you have now, what do you think?"

"I can now confirm that this Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. is just a smoke bomb released by the Chen Group, specifically used to confuse the public." Matsumoto Bieyun glanced at Matsumoto Aoyama, who was listening carefully. Seeing that he didn't interrupt him, he continued, "There are two reasons. First is the importance of this system. As a relatively advanced operating system currently on the market in China, if I were the Chen Group, I would definitely keep this system development team's information as a trade secret and strictly protect it. I wouldn't let them leak out, and certainly wouldn't let them exist in the name of a company. Second, the appearance time of this company is too coincidental. From their registration date, this company was basically registered a few days before the press conference. It cannot be ruled out that this is a backup plan prepared by the Chen Group long ago, specifically used to divert attention."

"Hmm." Matsumoto Aoyama nodded slightly, neither affirming nor denying, just asking, "What do you think we should do now?"

As soon as the question was asked, Matsumoto Bieyun became nervous. He knew this was his father testing him again, and this was exactly the opportunity he had been waiting for.

Ever since he was severely slapped in the face at the press conference, he had clearly felt his father's disappointment in him. This disappointment was directly reflected in his pocket money, which was cut in half, making him very uncomfortable.

This time, he wanted to perform well again. A man, if he doesn't have ambition, he should at least strive for some dignity.

"I think we should not focus our attention on this small company now. We need to divert our attention in time, find out the research team behind the Chen Group, and try every means to make their team split. If we can use money, that's better; if we can't use money, then use other means."

Matsumoto Aoyama nodded slightly, seeming not surprised by the "other means" mentioned by Matsumoto Bieyun.

Seeing his father nod, Matsumoto Bieyun was greatly encouraged and continued, "Second, we want to unite with other companies to give the Chen Group a heavy blow from the capital side, so that the Chen Group will be too busy to take care of itself and unable to hide its secrets."

"Third, we need to create conflicts, worsen the reputation of the Chen Group, let the Chen Group fall into a whirlpool of public opinion and be unable to extricate itself, and then use the second point to short the Chen Group, making the Chen Group bleed heavily."

"Not bad." Matsumoto Aoyama continued to nod. "Continue."

Matsumoto Bieyun's face was flushed with excitement.

"Fourth, we need to..."

Just as the Matsumoto father and son were discussing, in an office building in the center of W City, Chen Zhongxuan was also discussing the same content with Uncle Chen, but the direction was completely different.

The sky had gradually darkened.

The conversation between Chen Xin and Liu Yemei had long since ended. At this time, Chen Xin was standing in front of the window, looking at the twinkling lights outside, her brows slightly furrowed.

"What does he usually do at this time?" Chen Xin asked.

"He should be sitting here. I don't know exactly what he does; I don't understand technology very well." Liu Yemei adjusted her glasses and said.

Chen Xin turned to look at the screen full of code on the computer. She didn't understand it either...

The two women stared at each other, both speechless for a moment.

An hour passed quickly.

Chen Xin looked up at the time. It was already 11:30 PM, and there was still no sign of Wang Shuo.

"Where else could he go?" Chen Xin couldn't help but say.

"He should be at the factory in the suburbs. I'll go contact him." Liu Yemei also slightly furrowed her brows, unable to understand why Wang Shuo was so unpunctual today. At this time, he usually came over and sat on the third floor for the whole night. As for what he did, only he and Han Xiaoxin probably knew.

Seeing Chen Xin nod, Liu Yemei turned and walked out.

A few minutes later, Liu Yemei returned.

"Miss, the phone is turned off, and I can't reach him." Liu Yemei said softly. "I have already confirmed with the school and his roommates. Wang Shuo has not returned to school."

"Do you know the address of the factory in the suburbs you mentioned?"

Liu Yemei nodded. She was responsible for finding the place, so how could she not know?

"Then let's go."

As the words fell, Chen Xin walked out first, and Liu Yemei hurriedly followed.

On the first floor, Han Xiaoxin and Xu Kexin, who were staring at each other, were both confused and didn't quite understand the situation.

What... was going on?
