226: Chapter 225 Chen Xin's Worries and Pillar of Reassurance

A few minutes later, a sudden scream came from upstairs.

Old Xie and the others, who had been staying downstairs, rushed upstairs and ran into the meeting room.

The Middle-aged man and the other two were nowhere to be seen in the meeting room; only Factory Director Gou lay on the floor, wailing in pain.

"Factory Director!"

Old Xie exclaimed, running to Factory Director Gou's side, and asked anxiously, "Factory Director, what happened to you?"

As he spoke, he reached out to help Factory Director Gou up.

The moment he touched him, Factory Director Gou immediately let out a miserable cry.

"Don't touch me, don't touch me! My leg is broken, my leg is broken."

Seeing Factory Director Gou sweating profusely from the pain and on the verge of passing out, Old Xie finally snapped out of it. He kicked aside young man standing nearby who was also trying to help, and shouted, "Call an ambulance! Go call an ambulance, damn it!"

young man scrambled to get up, grabbed his phone, and hurriedly dialed 120, while Old Xie began to re-examine Factory Director Gou lying on the floor.

Factory Director Gou's leg was bent at the knee at a bizarre angle, an angle that a normal leg could never achieve.

"Factory Director, how did this happen?"

Just looking at it made Old Xie's own knees ache. He gasped, "Weren't you here to discuss business?"

Factory Director Gou drew a sharp breath and stammered, "I fell off the table and broke my leg."

Fell off the table?

Old Xie looked at the conference table, which was less than 1.2 meters high, and found it strange. Could falling from this break a leg? And could it result in such a bizarre angle?

I would have believed it if you said someone broke it for you.

Muttering to himself, Old Xie didn't dare to move Factory Director Gou again. He could only let him lie on the floor and wait for the ambulance to arrive and take him away.

"Old... Old Xie."

Factory Director Gou used all his remaining strength to say, "Notify them... tell them to act... hiss... act! I want Frontier Technology to be utterly destroyed!"

"Understood."

Old Xie held Factory Director Gou's hand and said firmly, "Rest assured, I will make Frontier Technology realize the consequences of offending you."

Factory Director Gou nodded with satisfaction, his head lolled to the side, and he finally passed out.

Looking at the unconscious Factory Director Gou with a grim expression, Old Xie immediately took out his phone and dialed a number. He said coldly, "Act immediately. I don't want to hear any more excuses! I want the person in charge of Frontier Technology Company to kneel down and apologize to our Factory Director right now!"

...

On the other side, young man put down the phone in his hand and muttered, "These big shots have such peculiar hobbies. Kneeling to apologize, and even singing 'Conquer'... tsk tsk."

As he spoke, he raised his head and clapped his hands, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the room.

young man coughed and said loudly, "Everyone, pay attention. This is the first time we've received such a high-profile job. Whether we can make a name for ourselves in the industry depends on this! Everyone work hard, and if we pull this off, I'll treat you all to a feast!"

"Start working now!"

Everyone cheered and immediately threw themselves into their work, and the scene quickly became lively.

young man nodded with satisfaction and beckoned to the side. A young man ran over with a grin.

"San'er, how did the matter I asked you to handle go?"

"Don't worry, Boss." young man rubbed his hands and said with a grin, "I urgently pre-ordered one on the official website last night, but due to the quota and quantity limits, no one else managed to pre-order one."

young man frowned, "One unit probably won't be enough."

"I considered that too," young man replied with a grin. "So I had Xiaoxiao and the others analyze all the videos about zero egg on the internet overnight. We picked out a few that are definitely authentic and asked them if they could provide their pre-order accounts. Two people have already agreed."

"Not bad." young man patted young man's shoulder with a look of satisfaction. "You've improved a lot after training with me these past few years. You're actually using your brain to think now. Very good. Once this is over, I'll make you the Vice General Manager of the company."

young man looked delighted. "Thank you, Boss—no, General Manager Yu."

young man laughed out loud, then lowered his voice, "Three units—it's a bit low, but it should be enough."

"It's a pity that the big shot is pushing us so hard. Otherwise, if we had a few more days, this matter could have fermented even more."

He said, showing a hint of regret.

"Who's to say it isn't?"

young man was also very regretful.

If this matter had fermented for a few more days, they would have had a thousand ways to stir up public anger. Even if Frontier Technology Company had a thousand mouths, they could still drag it into a whirlpool of public opinion from which it could never escape.

By then, whether they wanted to mold it or crush it, wouldn't it be up to them?

Not to mention making the boss of Frontier Technology kneel and apologize to the big shot behind the scenes, even making Frontier Technology Company disappear would be a matter of minutes.

Furthermore, in this matter, they seemed to have discovered the shadows of competitors, and quite a few at that.

Everyone is fighting for food.

young man sighed.

The entire internet had been stirred into a chaotic mess by this newly debuted Frontier Technology Company.

After thinking for a while, young man finally said, "Forget it. Although it's a bit too early to launch, making money is the priority. We'll do whatever the big shot says. Let's get to work."

young man nodded, returned to his computer, and began clattering away at the keyboard.

...

10:30 PM on December 17, 2018.

Chen Xin finally arrived at the Software Park.

When she saw the three-story building still brightly lit at 10:00 PM, she couldn't help but be slightly dazed.

"Miss," Wang Lingcheng stepped forward, "Do you need me to contact Wang Shuo or Miss Liu?"

Chen Xin shook her head slightly, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her mind, and walked into the company's entrance.

The first-floor reception desk was empty, so Chen Xin didn't stop and went straight to the second floor.

The renovated second floor had been partitioned into several rooms. Chen Xin ignored the pair of male and female employees who were discussing something with their heads together and walked toward the office at the very back of the second floor, following her memory.

This was Liu Yemei's office.

She knocked on the door lightly, and a voice filled with exhaustion came from inside.

Chen Xin pushed the door open and entered.

"Miss?"

Liu Yemei, sitting behind the desk, looked up and revealed a trace of surprise, "Why are you here?"

Chen Xin smiled slightly, "Can't I come?"

"That's not it. You can come here anytime. I think General Manager Wang would also be very happy to see you."

Hearing Wang Shuo's name, Chen Xin reined in her smile. Noncommittally, she walked over to Liu Yemei's desk, sat down, and casually placed the things in her hand on the table.

"Did you bring this for me? Steamed buns?" Liu Yemei glanced at them and looked at Chen Xin suspiciously. "Miss, since when did I like steamed buns?"

Watching the confused Liu Yemei, a trace of imperceptible blush flashed across Chen Xin's face. She then said unhappily, "I came a bit late, and this was all that was left. Eat it or don't."

Liu Yemei looked at her Miss, feeling slightly speechless.

As a woman, and a very shrewd woman at that, she instantly understood what was going on.

But now, her perspective on this matter had changed somewhat.

It was just that her Miss, who was originally high and mighty, cold to all men, and whom countless young talents pursued in vain, would one day actually remember a man's preferences. This made her feel inexplicably emotional.

"I'll eat. I happen to be a bit hungry, so of course I'll eat."

Liu Yemei pulled the lunch box over, took out a steamed bun, stuffed it into her mouth, and took a big bite.

Only in front of Chen Xin was she such an unmasked Liu Yemei, like a best friend, where she could show everything without restraint.

In fact, Chen Xin was the same.

After eating several steamed buns in a row, Liu Yemei slowed down, picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip, and sighed comfortably.

"I wonder which family's young master will be lucky enough to marry a beauty with a kind heart like you in the future. In the middle of the night like this, finding a steamed bun shop must not have been easy, right?"

Looking at Liu Yemei's teasing smile, Chen Xin couldn't help but blush. She turned her head slightly, avoiding the question from her best friend, and instead asked, "I heard that the company is in trouble. As a shareholder, I should come and see. Is it very serious?"

"It's very serious."

Mentioning work, Liu Yemei regained some seriousness. She nodded, then shook her head, "But it's also not serious."

What does that mean?

Chen Xin was a bit bewildered. Judging by her father's tone, what Wang Shuo was facing this time was a critical juncture of life and death. If handled poorly, the company he had worked so hard to build could be lost overnight.

In Chen Xin's heart, this was already a very serious situation, even more serious than the things Chen Group had encountered before.

After all, the issues Chen Group encountered could be solved as long as the technology was up to par. But for this matter, listening to her father's implication, even if the technology was advanced, it would be difficult to handle.

This was also the reason she had rushed to Hanzhong City. She wanted to be by his side during his most difficult time. Even if she couldn't help much, sharing some of the pain would be good.

Before coming in, she had even prepared herself to see a scene of sorrow and gloom, and even prepared for Wang Shuo to hand over the company affairs to her.

But what was the situation before her?

What did "serious but not serious" mean?

She even felt that Liu Yemei was more confident in the company than the last time they talked. This stemmed from her understanding of this best friend after many years of getting along.

Previously, Liu Yemei staying at Wang Shuo's company and helping him was all for her sake, but Liu Yemei herself did not view the company favorably.

She didn't even think Wang Shuo could run a company for long, and for this, she had even prepared for the company to close down and for her to change jobs.

But now it was different. Chen Xin could clearly feel that Liu Yemei had an extra layer of recognition and trust in Wang Shuo's company.

"What's going on?"

Chen Xin frowned slightly and asked.

"The company's problem lies in the supply chain. Our supply chain has been maliciously blocked. Most suppliers cannot provide products, and a small number of suppliers have already stood on the opposite side of the company," Liu Yemei said helplessly. "I have spent a lot of time re-visiting to find alternative manufacturers, but... the other party is very powerful and has a lot of money."

Chen Xin's brows furrowed even tighter.

This situation indeed threatened the survival of the company. If it continued, it would not just be a matter of delayed delivery, but a matter of whether delivery was even possible.

Users can accept delayed delivery, but they can never accept you taking their money and failing to deliver.

These are two different concepts.

"China is so big, can they really block all the suppliers? I'll ask my dad to help you guys find some."

"Miss, you and General Manager Wang are really..." Liu Yemei shook her head with a bitter smile, "General Manager Wang said the same thing. He also said that there is no problem in this world that cannot be solved by technology. If there is, it's just that the technology isn't advanced enough."

"So he decided not to retreat a single step, to confront them head-on to the end. Not only must he ensure the supply chain, but he must also ensure on-time delivery."

Chen Xin opened her mouth wide.

She thought Wang Shuo was crazy.

At a time like this, it would be good enough to just ensure delivery, yet he's setting conditions for himself. Isn't this just driving himself into a dead end?

"Didn't you stop him?"

"No." Liu Yemei shook her head.

"This guy." Chen Xin clenched her small fists, holding a small note in her palm. "Where is he? Since you can't stop him, I'll go stop him. After all, I still have shares in this company!"

Watching Chen Xin rush out of the office, Liu Yemei smiled helplessly.

Miss, oh Miss, since you don't dare to find him yourself, let me help you. After all, I can only help you this much.

As for the difficulties?

Liu Yemei looked at the tables already listed on her desk and felt incredibly satisfied.

This was the result she had obtained after spending the whole day coordinating, and after being organized by Zero, it had finally formed this table.

With this table, whatever suppliers, whatever stumbling blocks, whatever public opinion storms...

All these monsters and demons were just slightly bigger clowns.

This was her confidence, the confidence Wang Shuo gave her.

Like a stabilizing force.
