Chapter 468 469 [One general succeeds and ten thousand bones die]
Compared to Xiang Nan's happy son, Xu Kaiyang is a bit unlucky.
His father's Kaiyang Building Materials, because of selling low-quality building materials, caused an accident on the construction site, resulting in one death and two injuries, leading to a catastrophe.
Originally, his father had already found a scapegoat and appeased the victim's family, so it was possible to turn the big trouble into a small one.
Unexpectedly, this incident eventually attracted the attention of the media, and they reported it one after another, which caused an uproar in the public opinion for a while.
The family members of the victims who had been calmed down suddenly started making trouble. It made the things that had been settled once again set off waves.
Kaiyang Building Materials was immediately prosecuted by the procuratorate. After the trial, Xu Kaiyang's father was imprisoned, sentenced to seven years in prison, and fined hundreds of millions of dollars.
Xu Kaiyang was forced to step in and take charge of Kaiyang Building Materials.
But what he faced was a mess.
Because of this incident, Kaiyang Building Materials' reputation in Hujiang plummeted, and no one dared to cooperate with it again. The building materials sold before have been returned one after another, and the agreed cooperation has also been cancelled, which caused Kaiyang Building Materials to suffer great losses.
In order to fill the company's hole, Xu Kaiyang had to borrow money and sell his property. The result not only failed to save the company, but made the company's financial situation worse and worse.
Finally, Kaiyang Building Materials filed for bankruptcy after struggling for half a year.
…
Ceng Yu was as unlucky as Xu Kaiyang.
Her mother's Xingchen Group is a construction company that purchases inferior building materials, resulting in construction site accidents.
Because of such a scandal, Xingchen Group was also investigated.
The vice chairman of the company, Zhou Qu, the manager of the first project, and Feng Desheng, the general manager of the subsidiary, were successively controlled by the police, and they were said to have committed serious economic problems.
The construction site accident and the high-level scandal made Xingchen Group also precarious, and its stock price plummeted for several consecutive days. The market value plummeted from more than two billion yuan to hundreds of millions of yuan, which caused strong dissatisfaction among large and small shareholders.
The company encountered a major change, but the chairman Yujing was unwell and unable to manage the overall situation of the company, which made Xingchen Group even more chaotic.
At the critical moment, Zeng Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and take over the company.
In order to keep the company, the first thing she has to do is to raise the stock price. Otherwise, Xingchen Group is very likely to be bought by someone.
In this way, her mother's years of hard work will be wasted.
But raising the stock price requires money. In particular, to pull the stock price back to its original position, at least four to five billion yuan is needed.
With so much money, Zeng Yu couldn't get it out for a while.
At this moment, outside capital is eager to try it. Among them is Xingmao Investment, where Lin Jing works.
…
Xiang Nan has been paying attention to this matter.
Knowing that Zeng Yu's company had a problem, he quickly extended a helping hand to her.
He used the house in his hand as collateral, borrowed 500 million yuan, and handed it over to Zeng Yu to boost the stock price.
"Ah Zheng, this..." Seeing Xiang Nan helping her so much, Zeng Yu couldn't help being moved. Looking at him with watery eyes, weeping.
These days, after Xingchen Group's accident, many old friends, old partners, and old acquaintances dared not see her in order to avoid trouble, let alone lend a helping hand, which made her a little disappointed in human nature.
"Zeng Yu, I promised you at the beginning that I would do everything in my power to help you, so I am here now." Xiang Nan smiled slightly, "Don't get me wrong, I will help you just as a friend."
Ceng Yu's face darkened, then he nodded, "I know, I'm already very grateful."
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "By the way, do you know why the construction site accident was reported by the media even though it was cleared up? Also, why did the family members who were appeased rise up to make trouble?"
"I'm not sure. After the incident, too many things happened, and I haven't taken care of them." Zeng Yu shook his head and said.
These days, she has been busy raising funds, driving up the stock price, and protecting the company, so she really doesn't have the energy to investigate this matter. But she knew in her heart that there must be something strange behind this incident.
Someone must have made trouble on purpose, which caused another disturbance to the already settled matter. The family members who had been appeased rose up to make trouble again.
"Is there someone named Shi Jie in your company?" Xiang Nan then asked.
"She is my mother's secretary, how do you know her?" Zeng Yu asked suspiciously.
"The construction site where the accident occurred was a project invested by Xingmao. Lin Jing, the deputy manager of Xingmao, was in charge of the accident investigation. Shi Jie and Lin Jing had studied in Italy with Lin Jing back then, and they had a very close relationship." Xiang Nan explained, "Ren Tao, the prosecutor who is in charge of investigating the accident this time, is also Lin Jing's college classmate."
He has seen the plot and knows the joints in it.
After hearing this, Zeng Yu froze immediately.
After a while, she woke up.
"So, the mastermind behind this matter is Lin Jing! He obtained the company's account books through Shi Jie, found evidence that Zhou Qu, Feng Desheng and others purchased inferior building materials, and handed it over to the procuratorate.
They also incited the family members of the victims to make trouble, and made a lot of noise about this matter through the media. The purpose is to suppress Xingchen Group's stock price so that Xingmao Investment can buy at the bottom? " Zeng Yu frowned and said.
"Xingchen Group is an old-fashioned construction company, well-known in Shanghai and even the whole country. Lin Jing helped Xingmao Investment to win Xingchen, which is definitely a great achievement.
At that time, he is likely to be in power because he has become the youngest manager of Xingmao. Xiang Nan nodded and said.
"You are so cruel." Zeng Yu gritted his teeth.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jing brought down two companies just by herself! One will succeed and ten thousand bones will dry up!
"In short, you have to be careful." Xiang Nan nodded, "If you need anything, please contact me again. Just be a friend, and I will try my best to help you."
Zeng Yu nodded.
…
With Xiang Nan's financial support, Zeng Yu was even more powerful, not only successfully driving up the stock price. Moreover, he also bought a large number of stocks at a low price, consolidating his mother's position as the largest shareholder.
Moreover, she sent a wrong message to Lin Jing through Shi Jie. Let him mistakenly think that she didn't raise any money, and Xingchen Group's stock price would plummet, which delayed the timing of the sale and missed the best opportunity to acquire Xingchen.
Zeng Yu then launched an investigation into Shi Jie and called the police. Shi Jie was finally sentenced to three years in prison for the crime of stealing trade secrets. Even if she was released three years later, with such a reputation on her back, no company dared to use her.
It can be said that for Lin Jing, she ruined most of her originally good life.
Although Lin Jing was not punished by the law, he was not in trouble either. When he got off work at night, Xu Kaiyang was stabbed twice by Xu Kaiyang, who was guarding downstairs in the company.
Following Shi Jie's accident, Lin Jing's collusion with her was also exposed.
Xu Kaiyang also knew that his father was in jail and Kaiyang Building Materials was forced to close because of Lin Jing. He couldn't be more angry, so he wanted to take revenge on Lin Jing.
Although his two stabs did not kill Lin Jing, they also caused him serious injuries, and removed a pancreas and kidney, which would affect the rest of his life.
Xu Kaiyang was also imprisoned for this and was sentenced to seven years in prison.
