180: What's the problem with Chapter 180?

Seeing that all the directors had fallen into silence, Zhi Shu stopped speaking.

After a while, the elder said: "If that is the case, it is indeed a troublesome matter. So... are you planning to deal with this Frontier Technology Co., Ltd.?"

"Dealing with it is not the most important thing; figuring out its composition by dealing with it is the most important thing," Zhi Shu replied. "This is also for the sake of the entire group."

"It can be considered." The elder nodded slightly. "How do you want to do it?"

"Mobilize all the group's resources to surround and intercept it."

Zhi Shu said coldly: "Previously, Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. had not released any products, had no consumer business, and all its business was conducted one-way with the Chen Group, and did not involve the supply chain, so we had no way to deal with it."

"But now the opportunity has come. Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. will release a new product on December 15th. No matter what it releases, according to the situation of the Chinese supply chain, this product will have its weak points."

"What we need to do... is to give it a fatal blow at this weak point!"

"This is just the first step."

"The first step is to plunge it into a predicament from which it cannot extricate itself."

"The second step is to let it have hope, accelerate its blood loss, and cause its death."

"When necessary, we can provide it with channels to solve its weak points, accelerate its capital outflow, and make it lose the ability to save itself."

"At this time, the success or failure of the matter will depend on the Chinese Government."

The plan was simple and crude, but it must be said that it was very effective, with almost no possibility of failure.

According to this plan, it might not be impossible to kill two birds with one stone, or even three.

The elder thought carefully for a while, opened his eyes, and said: "Now let's vote. I agree."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

...

Unanimously passed!

"Zhi Shu, I represent the Board of Directors in authorizing you to take action. You can use any resources of the group in the Chinese region. If you need to use resources outside the Chinese region, you need to apply to me."

"Understood, Elder."

The corners of Zhi Shu's mouth curled up slightly: "I can apply now."

"I apply... to implement comprehensive raw material restrictions on Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. Whatever they want, we will restrict!"

...

The meeting ended.

Zhi Shu sat on the sofa, looking at the turned-off TV screen, remaining silent.

"Young Master Zhi Shu, did you discover something?" the female secretary standing behind him asked.

"No, I didn't discover anything," Zhi Shu smiled faintly. "This company is too small; it's small enough to be ignored."

"Then why do you..."

"Why do I want to deal with it?" Zhi Shu looked up and smiled. "Sometimes, weakness does not mean being ignored; on the contrary, it will arouse the teasing psychology of the strong."

"Is it the 'Mark I System' it brought out? Is the Chinese Government behind it? Can it control the lifeline of the Chen Group? What do these have to do with me?"

"I am not interested in these. I am interested... only in it itself."

"Just consider it... a seasoning for a boring life. The current opponents... including Chen Zhongxuan, are all too boring."

The female secretary pursed her lips and said nothing.

Perhaps... this is the demeanor of a high-level person.

"Help me buy two tickets to the Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. press conference." Zhi Shu, having finished sighing, came back to his senses and said softly: "We will also go and see this significant press conference."

...

Beijing, in another luxury residence.

A Middle-aged man was sitting in the boss's chair, looking at the tablet in his hand, when the door was pushed open.

The person who entered was a woman, looking to be in her thirties, dressed exquisitely.

"Boss."

Although the woman called him boss, she didn't look respectful at all, sitting directly on the chair next to her and crossing her slender legs.

"You came just in time; I happen to have something to ask you."

The Middle-aged man was not surprised and said: "How is the situation with that small company I asked you to contact before?"

"Small company?" The woman thought for a while: "You don't mean that one called 'Frontier Technology Co., Ltd.', right?"

Seeing the Middle-aged man nod, the woman then said: "I have already arranged for Cheng Wen to contact them, but the other party does not seem to have any intention."

"You let Cheng Wen go to contact them?" The Middle-aged man glanced at the woman. "Don't let Cheng Wen go for this kind of thing next time."

"Why, do you want to say again that Cheng Wen is not good at accomplishing things and only good at ruining them?" The woman smiled. "He is your brother-in-law. For such a small case of one million, it's no big problem to let him practice, right?"

"Any small matter can cause extremely serious consequences," the Middle-aged man said in a low and very serious tone. "Calling that kid Cheng Wen someone who ruins things more than he accomplishes them is already giving him face because he is my brother-in-law. In my opinion, he is completely a scumbag—greedy, lustful, arrogant, and sycophantic. He will cause me a big disaster one day."

"If he hasn't gone yet, change to someone else."

"He has already gone," the woman said with a smile. "The second day after you arranged it for me, he went to Hanzhong City. Strangely enough, he hasn't come back yet."

The Middle-aged man shook his head slightly, seeming very helpless.

"I actually think he did a good job this time," the woman smiled. "His first round of bidding was one million for 30% of the shares. Judging by the registered capital of this company, it's already not low."

"What was the result?"

"The other party refused."

"Let him go; it would be abnormal if the other party didn't refuse," the man said lightly. "Don't let him participate in this matter anymore; I will follow up personally."

"Personally?" The woman was a little surprised. "You are going to ignore the hundred-million-dollar big case to follow up on a small company personally?"

"Yes," the man nodded. "Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. will hold a press conference on December 15th. You go to their official website and book two tickets. This time, we will go there personally."

"What kind of company Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. is and whether it has potential will be revealed soon."

"I see that you are restless now," the woman stood up and stretched. "To actually think of going to see the press conference of a small company, isn't this just being idle?"

"I will arrange it, don't break your promise this time."

The woman went out.

The man didn't speak again, picked up the tablet on the table again, looked at the black promotional page, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

His brows furrowed slightly.

He hadn't had this kind of uneasiness for many years.

He carefully thought about the decisions he had made recently and did not find any problems. All arrangements were well-considered. Even if problems occurred by accident, the risks were definitely within his control.

This... where did the problem arise?
