Chapter 158 - 158 158 Undermine the Enemy's Foundation

158: Chapter 158: Undermine the Enemy’s Foundation 158: Chapter 158: Undermine the Enemy’s Foundation “What happened?” the other three asked in unison.

Qin Han and Xiang Xiao exchanged a glance before Qin Han spoke, “Zhou Group’s stocks are being maliciously acquired; 35 percent of the shares have been bought, and the number is still increasing.”

“All our distributors for Qingshi Wangfei’s beauty serum called this morning to say they’re discontinuing their collaboration with us.

Only one small company is still placing orders,” Xiang Xiao said with a heavy tone.

“Do you know why they’re not working with us anymore?” Song Yuwei asked, frowning.

Xiang Xiao sighed, “They didn’t give a reason, just said they’re not cooperating anymore.”

“Once someone holds more than fifty-one percent of Zhou Group’s shares, the control of the company will no longer be in the Zhou family’s hands.

Somebody is orchestrating this.”

Although Song Yuwei didn’t understand the world of martial artists, she was an expert in the strategies employed in the business arena.

Therefore, as soon as Qin Han mentioned the acquisition of Zhou Group’s stocks, Song Yuwei’s first thought was that someone aimed to take control of Zhou family.

“It looks like Chen Jingtian is making his move.

Although Qingshi Wangfei is currently managed primarily by Yu Wei alone, it is, strictly speaking, a subsidiary of Wenfeng Group,” Qin Han stated calmly.

Combining the current situations of Zhou Group and Qingshi Wangfei, it was clear Chen Jingtian was trying to pull the rug out from under them.

“Correct, gaining control of Zhou Group would equal curbing Wenfeng Group.

Even though Wenfeng Group can’t interfere with the internal management of Qingshi Wangfei, even a simple audit could be extremely troublesome,” Xiang Xiao added.

Song Yuwei pondered, then asked Xiang Xiao, “Which company is still with us?”

“It’s the agent from Ping’an District of Zhongzhou.

They’re a new company and very small.

At that time, in order to secure the agency rights, they slashed their profit margins to the lowest possible, and then, Sister Yu Wei, you gave them the same profit margin as the other companies,” Xiang Xiao explained.

Song Yuwei thought carefully, “I remember him, he knows gratitude.”

“Let’s not jump to conclusions too quickly.

Things haven’t come to a head yet,” Qin Han said indifferently.

Dinglingling!

Song Yuwei’s phone suddenly rang, showing an unfamiliar number.

Qin Han nodded at her, signaling her to answer.

“Is this President Song?” asked a strange man’s voice over the phone.

“Yes, it is.

May I ask who’s speaking?” Song Yuwei responded.

“President Song, this is Li Huakai from Huakai Company.

I have something to inform you,” Li Huakai said on the phone.

Huakai Company was the new small company and currently the only one still ordering from Qingshi Wangfei.

“Hello, President Li, please go ahead,” Song Yuwei replied.

“Last night I received a call from someone claiming to belong to Chen family in Shangjing, telling me to stop cooperating with Qingshi Wangfei or be considered an enemy of the Chen family, threatening to destroy my company.

And it wasn’t just me; nearly every distributor of Qingshi Wangfei’s beauty serum received this call,” Li Huakai explained anxiously.

Song Yuwei nodded thoughtfully and said, “President Li, may I take the liberty to ask why you decided to continue working with Qingshi Wangfei?”

“President Song, when we were a newly established small company, not only did you not look down on us, but you also gave us the same profit margin as other established companies.

To be honest, our company was on the brink of collapse at the time.

If it weren’t for the distribution rights of the beauty serum, we might have closed down long ago.

If a person doesn’t know gratitude, what is the difference between them and animals?” Li Huakai reasoned over the phone.

“Did your company offend someone from the Chen family?” Li Huakai continued to ask.

Song Yuwei glanced at Qin Han and, seeing him nod, she replied, “Yes, the Chen family wants the formula for the beauty serum.”

“President Song, you absolutely must not give them the formula.

The beauty serum is now being sold for three hundred thousand a bottle on the market; just the formula alone is worth billions.

I refuse to believe these people are above the law,” Li Huakai, infuriated by Chen family’s intent, stated.

“The company is currently dealing with this issue.

The Chen family is not easy to deal with, and if you can’t hold out, you may temporarily suspend your cooperation with Qingshi Wangfei,” Song Yuwei said.

Li Huakai laughed heartily and earnestly said, “President Song, you underestimate me, Li Huakai.

Not to mention that Qingshi Wangfei gave my company a chance to come back from the brink, I wouldn’t kick them when they’re down even if that wasn’t the case.”

“Then, President Li, be cautious in the coming days.

I’m worried the Chen family might take out their frustrations with Qingshi Wangfei on you,” Song Yuwei kindly advised.

“I’ll be careful,” Li Huakai acknowledged, “and you should be careful too, President Song.”

After they hung up, Song Yuwei said, “It’s unlikely the Chen family will go after Huakai Company, but now we have a problem to solve.”

“What problem?” the others asked simultaneously.

Qin Han also looked at Song Yuwei, waiting for her to continue.

“Xiaoxiao, send a lawyer’s letter to the distributors who terminated their contracts with Qingshi Wangfei immediately, demanding compensation for breach of contract and reclaiming all owed payments.”

“Second, thoroughly investigate our internal staff to see if anyone has had contact with the Chen family lately.”

“Third, open up other distribution channels for the beauty serum to ensure maximum capital return.

The only power we have to fight back right now is the high demand for the beauty serum in the market.”

Listening to Song Yuwei’s decisions, Qin Han looked at her with admiration.

“President Song, I can understand sending lawyer’s letters, but why conduct a thorough investigation of our internal staff?” Xiang Xiao asked, somewhat surprised.

“The Chen family managed to contact all of Qingshi Wangfei’s agents immediately; there must be a mole within the company.

If we don’t root out this person, any countermeasures we take will be known to the opposition,” Song Yuwei explained.

“I see,” Xiang Xiao nodded, then started making calls.

The company couldn’t be left without a leader; the staff must be in total chaos by now.

When Song Yuwei arrived at the office, the employees all gathered around her.

“President Song, all the distributors have stopped cooperating with us; what should we do?”

“The production department is backlogged with beauty serums that can’t be shipped out,”

“The raw material suppliers, having heard about the distributors, have also come to press for payment,”

Scanning the crowd of employees, Song Yuwei spoke up loudly, “Everyone, calm down!”

“The company hasn’t fallen yet; why are you panicking?

New sales channels are already being sought after.

Focus on the tasks at hand,”

Hearing that new sales channels were being explored, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and returned to their positions to work.

After everyone dispersed, Geng Chenguang, the marketing department manager, followed Song Yuwei back to her office and asked, “President Song, do we really have new sales channels already?”

“Not yet, still working on that!” Song Yuwei shook her head.
