Chapter 334: Chapter 237: Terminate Cooperation_2

However, the termination of this collaboration is also a significant loss for Fu Tingzhou.

After all, if the collaboration with Fu Tingzhou had gone smoothly, the gourmet area would have opened by the end of this month, establishing a profitable restaurant and tourism series.

For the sake of immediate gains, as long as Fu Tingzhou is willing to lower his head, Gao Chengxiong would immediately agree to continue the cooperation.

But at this moment, Fu Tingzhou sneered, "Gao Chengxiong, are you implying that you’re threatening me? Threatening me with this collaboration?"

Gao Chengxiong laughed and denied, "That’s not what I mean."

But that was exactly what he meant, and he had made it quite clear.

"Fu Tingzhou, this is North Island, not North City. I know that you’re mighty and the wealthiest in North City, but this is, after all, North Island, and our collaboration is already underway. I think it might be better for both of us if we..."

Gao Chengxiong intended to say that they could each take a step back.

Unexpectedly, Fu Tingzhou curtly responded, "I will have my assistant send you the termination notice for the contract. You may leave now."

Gao Chengxiong was stunned for a moment.

"What?" Terminate the collaboration?

Gao Chengxiong suddenly stood up, "Mr. Fu, are you serious? We’ve been working on this for a month, and by the end of this month at the latest, we could see the returns, and now you’re saying to terminate..."

Fu Tingzhou sat in his executive chair, knees crossed, looking down on Gao Chengxiong as if he were watching a clown perform.

Gao Chengxiong’s momentum immediately dissipated as he hastened to lower his head, "I did not consider carefully this time, I didn’t educate my daughter well. It’s indeed her fault for bullying Miss Tang Xi, and I will have her personally visit and apologize to Miss Tang Xi!"

Fu Tingzhou simply stated, "Shen Duan, show the guest out!"

Shen Duan promptly walked in and gestured for Gao Chengxiong to leave.

Seeing that his fate was sealed and knowing that Fu Tingzhou would no longer cooperate with him, Gao Chengxiong changed his expression and yelled, "Do you think that without your funds, I have no money to invest? This is North Island, where I, Gao Chengxiong, call the shots, no matter how formidable you are!"

Shen Duan raised his hand, sharply securing Gao Chengxiong’s arm at the elbow joint.

Gao Chengxiong cried out in pain.

Shen Duan, wearing a smile, said, "Please, President Gao."

After Gao Chengxiong left, Shen Duan came in, "President Fu, do you want me to set up an appointment with Miss Shangguan?"

"Mm."

Fu Tingzhou said, "Arrange it for the afternoon, I’ll make a trip to Shangguan Group after."

-

After Gao Chengxiong left the hotel, he returned to the Gao Family and threw a massive temper tantrum. Gao Yufeng also heard about the failed collaboration. Without Fu Tingzhou’s investment and relying solely on the Gao Family’s capital, it was impossible to take on such a large project alone, forcing him to turn to bank loans for help.

He needed loans from five different banks, plus two private loans.

Finally, he managed to gather the funds needed for the collaboration.

Gao Chengxiong and Gao Yufeng were prepared to make grand plans, confident that as long as the project launched by the end of the month and the tourist season started, they would surely make the money back.

Gao Yufeng gritted his teeth, "This Fu Tingzhou really doesn’t take us seriously. No one on North Island has ever bullied the Gao Family. No matter how powerful he is, we won’t allow it. Dad, I’ll find a couple of people to teach him a lesson."

Gao Chengxiong nodded, "Don’t go too far, but make sure he learns his lesson. Remember, don’t expose us."

Gao Yufeng said, "I’ll have Old Xu from our guys handle it. The car accident back then... was also done by Old Xu. He’s clean with his work, and to this day, I bet Fu Tingzhou still thinks it was the Shangguan Family’s doing, never suspecting us."

Gao Chengxiong said, "Yufeng, you handled this matter well... That car accident made Fu Tingzhou suspicious of the Shangguan Family back then, but now that the collaboration with Fu Tingzhou has fallen through, we can’t let the Shangguan Family benefit so easily!"

Gao Yufeng left the office, took out his cell phone, pondered for a moment, and dialed a number, "Mr. Yun, are you available now? I’d like to ask for your advice on something."

When Fu Tingzhou first arrived at North Island, Mr. Yun provided Gao Yufeng with a scheme that led to a car accident and pinned the blame on the Shangguan Family.

Mr. Yun was a mysterious figure on North Island, and Gao Yufeng always treated him as a distinguished guest.

In North Island, Mr. Yun had many hidden assets.

Being capricious and enigmatic, Gao Yufeng didn’t dare to offend him lightly.

On the other side, Fu Yunye spoke, "Come to Qing Shui Tang tonight, we’ll talk then."

Although Gao Yufeng was somewhat anxious, he could only nod and agree.

-

Shangguan Nanxian was always a person of strong execution. Learning about the termination of the collaboration between Fu Tingzhou and the Gao Family, she immediately extended an invitation, and their cooperation went smoothly.

Moreover, Shangguan Nanxian didn’t take advantage of the situation to jack up the price, showing the depth and reputation of the Shangguan Family lineage. "Mr. Fu, do you have any other concerns?"

Fu Tingzhou had some respect for Shangguan Nanxian, admiring a woman with such courage and boldness.

"The Gao Family’s gourmet area is almost ready, just waiting to officially open at the end of the month. When it does, it will dominate the entire North Island’s food and tourism industry. We will confront them only if there is absolute certainty. Miss Shangguan, I wonder how you plan to handle this matter?"

"Next month is the tourist season, and almost all the hotels under the Shangguan Family are booked out. We’re preparing a big jewelry competition, a top-level jewelry design contest, with three rounds judged by top designer Shen Qinglin, who will act as the main judge of this competition. The winner will get the opportunity to become the chief designer at News Jewelry Group. You know, News Group is an international jewelry brand founded by Shen Qinglin herself."

This event hadn’t been made public yet, only the Shangguan Family knew that Shen Qinglin had chosen North Island as the site for the competition.

This was a deal Shangguan Nanxian secured after five hours of negotiations in Country F.

It was also the ace up her sleeve.
