Chapter 311 - 311 311 If things go wrong hundreds could die
311: Chapter 311: If things go wrong, hundreds could die 311: Chapter 311: If things go wrong, hundreds could die Ningzhou Development Zone, a modern factory belonging to the Ningzhou branch of Mu Group.
“If it weren’t for my connections at headquarters, perhaps I would have really been blindsided by you and that Vice President Lin!
Over the years, I have considered myself a big contributor to the group.
Our Ningzhou branch has generated profits for the group, almost ten billion if not eight billion.
But what have I gotten?
Nothing!
Things were a bit better when Mu Hong was in charge; I had at least some autonomy.
Ever since Mu Shanshan took over, she’s even stripped me of my final personnel appointment rights!”
In his forties, dressed in a suit, Luo Zhongjun paced back and forth in front of Ling Weiwei, his words tinged with anger.
“She’s just lucky to be president because of her father’s influence.
Zhonghai’s business goddess?
Nonsense!
Without us working ourselves to the bone beneath her, she would be nothing!
I’ve made such contributions to the company; what’s wrong with taking some benefits for myself?
Is there any mistake in that?”
As soon as Luo Zhongjun had finished, Ling Weiwei immediately retorted loudly.
“Completely wrong!
If everyone thought like you, the company would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
Indeed, the Ningzhou branch has generated considerable profits for the group, but that’s not the achievement of one person; it’s the effort of all the employees of the Ningzhou branch.
You should know this better than anyone!”
“Nonsense!
Without my leadership, how would they generate any profits?”
“Without President Mu’s leadership, how would the group’s performance have soared these past two years?”
“True to Mu Shanshan’s style, so sharp-tongued and aggressive.
But I wonder if you can still keep your sharp tongue when you meet King Yan shortly!”
With a cold snort, Luo Zhongjun spoke threateningly.
“If you turn back now, there’s still time.
If you voluntarily return the money that you shouldn’t have taken from the company over these years, I can ask President Mu not to sue you, and you can retire early.”
Despite feeling deeply unhappy about Luo Zhongjun’s behavior, considering her situation was not favorable, Minister Ling wasn’t just concerned for her personal safety; she also had to consider Ning Qi, who was also caught in a dangerous situation because of her.
“As beautiful as it sounds, aren’t you being naive?
Return it?
The money is already spent.
What am I supposed to return?
You don’t think that I kept all that money for myself, do you?
I also need to manage things at all levels, otherwise why do you think I could flourish here in Ningzhou?”
Disdainfully snorting, Luo Zhongjun continued, “Let me tell you the truth, I have long anticipated that Mu Shanshan would take action against me, and I wouldn’t stick around here anyway even if you didn’t come.
In these past two years, I have earned some rewards with my efforts in the company.
I’ve sent my family abroad two years ago, and now I am planning to join them after I take care of you.”
“Even if you escape abroad, President Mu certainly won’t let you go.
If you kill us, the police will be even less likely to let you go!”
Ling Weiwei wasn’t exactly threatening Luo Zhongjun; in a way, she was just stating the facts.
With Luo Zhongjun embezzling funds from the Ningzhou branch and fleeing, not just the icy president Mu Shanshan, but also the board of directors wouldn’t ignore the situation.
The Minister of General Affairs from Mu Group visits Ningzhou and gets killed; even without Mu Group pressuring the police, public opinion alone would force the police to solve the case quickly.
“Do you think I’d be foolish enough to leave loose ends?”
Snap!
Snap!
Rebuking Ling Weiwei with a gesture, Luo Zhongjun snapped his fingers twice.
The bald man who had captured Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi at the factory approached Luo Zhongjun and handed him a black remote control.
“This factory has been rigged with bombs.
Before you arrived, I had my secretary call the factory manager in your name.
In an hour, the workers of the factory will mostly have arrived, waiting for your inspection.
At that time, I will send all of you to Hell from not far away!”
“In tomorrow’s news, you and the factory workers will definitely make the headlines.
Oh, and me, I’ll die along with you.
By then, I believe no one will doubt the fact that I’m dead.
Who would bother a dead man?!”
After Luo Zhongjun finished speaking, there was a deathly silence.
“Have you gone mad?
Have you thought about the consequences this will bring to the company?!”
After a long while, Ling Weiwei, recovering from her daze, slightly lifted her head, her autumn-water-like eyes staring intently at Luo Zhongjun, filled with disbelief.
Although Ling Weiwei had not expected Luo Zhongjun to kidnap her, the act was not without cause.
Regardless of where Luo Zhongjun had obtained his information from within the Mu Group headquarters, Ling Weiwei thought he was targeting only her.
Originally, Ling Weiwei wanted to say some soft words, hoping that Luo Zhongjun might soften his heart and let Ning Qi go.
Now, Minister Ling clearly had no hope left.
Since Luo Zhongjun had gone mad enough to plan to kill hundreds of innocent workers to cover his tracks and eliminate future threats, it was clear that he would not likely soften his heart and release Ning Qi.
Initially, Ling Weiwei had been worried about whether she and Ning Qi could escape from the factory.
Now, Ling Weiwei was worried about the hundreds of factory workers who were about to arrive.
If hundreds of workers were truly killed by Luo Zhongjun, the blow to the Mu Group would be catastrophic!
Even if Mu Shanshan’s business acumen was exceptional, bankruptcy and closure awaited her, and in severe cases, even imprisonment!
“If one does not act for oneself, heaven and earth will annihilate one.
Blame that woman Mu Shanshan for being too ruthless.
If she hadn’t sent you and someone surnamed Lin to investigate me, you wouldn’t have to be buried alongside these factory workers.”
Being able to think about using the lives of hundreds of factory workers to cover his tracks revealed Luo Zhongjun’s extremely crazy thoughts.
Clearly, he would not care about Ling Weiwei’s accusations.
Having already decided to abandon his position as the General Manager of the Ningzhou branch and flee abroad, the impact of the deaths of hundreds of workers on the Mu Group was clearly not within Luo Zhongjun’s considerations.
“If you stop now, I can immediately call Mr.
Mu, any amount of money you want is fine, and I can guarantee you that as long as you live, the Mu Group will absolutely not trouble you, as long as you are willing to stop!”
In an attempt to dissuade Luo Zhongjun, Ling Weiwei had temporarily abandoned her principles of conduct; unfortunately, Luo Zhongjun clearly had no intention of listening to her.
“Don’t you think it’s a bit late to be saying this now?
Or do you think I would fall for the same trick twice?
This factory is my hard work; I can’t rest until I’ve destroyed it!”
