Chapter 225 - 225 221 Officially Going to War

225: Chapter 221 Officially Going to War 225: Chapter 221 Officially Going to War “We must abandon our illusions and fight!”

On Monday, at nine in the morning, in the top-floor boardroom of the Emali Group skyscraper, Li Zhaojun convened an emergency shareholder and director conference.

She formally put the lawsuit against the Hua Hai University Biomedical Research Institute on the agenda and demanded that the lawsuit be filed in court immediately that day.

“We’re pretending to defer to the Tongyi Group while secretly making preparations, but the Tongyi Group is also making covert preparations.

Once the Tongyi Group is fully prepared, we will have no bargaining chips and be nothing but fish on the chopping block, ready for the Tongyi Group to slice at will!”

“We must strike swiftly and catch the Tongyi Group off guard!”

Li Zhaojun addressed the entire board of shareholders and directors, essentially repeating what Ye Fan had told her that day.

Although some shareholders and directors harbored an appeasing ostrich mentality, Li Zhaojun, along with the deputy chairman dispatched by Huachang Investment Fund, forcefully pushed through her decision.

Li Zhaojun had already begun preparations for the lawsuit against the Hua Hai University Biomedical Research Institute from the start.

Over the weekend, on Saturday and Sunday, she grasped every moment to make further preparations.

Although the preparations were not perfectly complete, they were sufficient to proceed.

So, after the shareholders and directors’ meeting ended, Li Zhaojun immediately went to the court to submit her lawsuit application.

The court received the lawsuit application and swiftly reviewed its legitimacy before formally accepting Li Zhaojun’s lawsuit demand and beginning to serve summonses to the Hua Hai University Biomedical Research Institute.

In the afternoon, the chairman and the head of the general office, Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan, together requested to see Li Zhaojun.

“Director Li, we are willing to sell our shares to you at seventy percent of the current market price,” Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan pleaded earnestly.

Li Zhaojun, with an impassive face, replied to Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan’s request as if she hadn’t heard them, “Mr.

Gong, Mr.

Sun, the lawsuit has just been filed, and I have many other pressing matters at hand.

Let’s talk about this some other time.”

“Sixty-five percent!” Gong Yongfu said through gritted teeth.

He and Sun Yuan absolutely did not want to get involved with the Emali Group’s pitfalls any longer.

They were eager to offload their shares and then sit back carefree, even taking pleasure in watching Li Zhaojun’s misfortune.

Li Zhaojun responded indifferently, “Let’s talk again in two or three days when the stock price drop trend becomes clear.

You don’t want to suffer a loss, and I, Li Zhaojun, am not a fool.

Please leave.”

Although Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan had always been opposed to Li Zhaojun, they still had some understanding of her character.

Since she had said so, they could only wait and talk again after two or three days.

The two men left Li Zhaojun’s office in frustration, heads down.

Li Zhaojun continued working on her computer.

Since returning from the court where she filed the lawsuit to her office, she had been continuously selling the circulating shares she held, constantly cashing out at the high share price.

Unlike Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan, who could only transfer shares, Li Zhaojun had bought one hundred million worth of Emali Group’s market circulating shares at their lowest point during the last crisis of a significant drop in the company’s stock.

She could sell these circulating shares freely on the stock market.

Now, these one hundred million shares had appreciated to over four hundred million.

She cashed in one hundred million the previous week, and now she wanted to sell all her circulating shares and cash out.

On Monday, under normal circumstances, stock market sentiment was generally positive.

It didn’t take Li Zhaojun too long to cash out all her holdings of over three hundred million Emali Group circulating shares.

Now, after repaying Tian Ya fifty million, her private funds amounted to three hundred and fifty million.

After four in the afternoon, a phone call suddenly rang through to her mobile phone.

Li Zhaojun took a look and couldn’t help but reveal a scornful cold smile on her stunning face—it was a call from Xiao Yichen.

She deliberately set her phone to silent mode and placed it back on the table.

After two or three minutes, when she checked her phone again, Xiao Yichen was still persistently dialing her number.

At that moment, she picked up her phone and answered Xiao Yichen’s call.

Once connected, Xiao Yichen’s furious voice immediately burst through, “Zhao Jun, why did you file a lawsuit against Hua Hai University’s Biomedical Research Institute?!

Why didn’t you say a word to me?!”

“Hmph!” Li Zhaojun snorted coldly, “Are you sure you want to speak to me in that tone?”

Xiao Yichen’s voice choked, remembering that his tone was inappropriate and had angered Li Zhaojun.

He quickly tried to smooth things over with an apologetic laugh, “Sorry, Zhao Jun, I’m just anxious.

I tried calling you for a long time before I got through.”

“Please call me by my full name,” Li Zhaojun said coldly.

“Yes, yes,” Xiao Yichen hurriedly responded, “Ah, why didn’t you discuss with me before suing Hua Hai University’s Biomedical Research Institute?

Didn’t we agree?

I was going to fully convince the board to agree to a collaboration with your group to establish a jointly held biomedical manufacturing company.”

“Now look what’s happened, my dad was so infuriated after receiving a call from Hua Hai University’s Biomedical Research Institute, he’s about to release the news to the media that we’ve bought the ‘Jili Lung Purification Tablets’ patent.

Once the news is out, your group’s stock will definitely plummet.”

“Zhao Jun…”

“Please call me Li Zhaojun,” she insisted, interrupting him.

“Yes, yes, Li Zhaojun,” Xiao Yichen continued, speaking in a placating tone, “You should still retract the lawsuit before the news breaks.

I’ll do my utmost to secure the most favorable terms for you.”

Li Zhaojun spoke indifferently, “Thank you for your kindness.

I am willing to work with the Tongyi Group.

However, the lawsuit has already been filed, and it’s not possible to withdraw it now.

I hope the Tongyi Group can offer the Emali Group satisfactory collaboration terms.”

Although her ultimate goal was to regain the patent for the ‘Jili Lung Purification Tablets,’ at the moment, it was best to keep the Tongyi Group in the dark for as long as possible.

“Sigh, alright,” Xiao Yichen sighed, “Don’t worry, I’m always on your side.

For you, I’ll exert all my strength to fight for the best collaboration terms.”

“Thank you,” Li Zhaojun said flatly, “If there’s nothing else, then I’m hanging up now.”

“Okay.

Goodbye,” Xiao Yichen said, smiling.

After hanging up, Xiao Yichen threw his phone on the table, his handsome face twist into a grotesque snarl as he cursed, “Bitch!

You disdain my toast only to drink a forfeit!

Just wait until I get my hands on you, you’ll suffer; I guarantee you’ll cry and beg for mercy every day!”

Inside office 808 on the eighth floor of the Emali Group building, Ye Fan was tapping away on his personal laptop, responding to messages.

If one were to look closely at the laptop screen, they would see it displayed a pure English website with a black background, with the chat window at the top bearing the bold, gold-on-black letters of “The Real Controllers’ World.”

In the morning, Ye Fan had entered The Real Controllers’ World and posted a mission to attack the Tongyi Group in the real world, causing them to fall apart and go utterly bankrupt.

That afternoon, someone had responded to his mission.

Inheritor: The Tongyi Group’s stock on the NASDAQ in the United States will start this Thursday, US time, and will be under intense attack for two weeks, pressure enough to force at least one suspension of their stock.

God’s Left Hand: If so, the mission seems simple and easy.

Pay me 10 Control Points, and I’ll get the job done for you.

Inheritor: I need the name Tongyi Group to no longer exist in three months.

God’s Left Hand: No problem.

Inheritor: Deal!

God’s Left Hand: Deal!
