Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Convening the Board of Directors
Wang Jin’er took a deep breath and looked at Li Feng, "So, everything was instigated by Chen Muyang from behind the scenes."
"Pretty much."
Wang Jin’er calmed down as well. As someone born into a major family, she naturally understood how brutal the struggle for power and money could be. It was just like fighting for the throne, especially since Century Group was a trillion-dollar enterprise, one of the top ten in Sea City.
In some small countries, it was almost rich enough to rival a state.
"Chen Muyang is so cunning, almost all of the public opinion has been directed at you. The stuff being spread couldn’t have been gathered in just a day or two, it’s clear he has been fanning the flames from behind."
"The goal is to invalidate that will."
The will from the day before yesterday was obviously valid, after all, it was executed in front of the media, as well as attorneys and notary officials, making the will undoubtedly legally binding.
Chen Muyang was almost ousted from the game, and it was clear that the former Crown Prince of the Century Group was not content with such an end. Hence, he concocted all of this.
"Even if we know he’s the one pushing this from behind, it’s still very difficult for us to clear things up. The chairman died suddenly, the chairman’s wife was abducted, and now all the public opinion is against the boss."
"The most crucial part is that this post is just too much in line with the current mindset of netizens—conspiracy theories, noble family grudges, scandals, and so on. These things together are the subject of endless talk. With the boss previously being a live-in son-in-law, dragging out these topics is just adding fuel to the fire."
"The high-ranking executives of Century Group were already reluctant to accept the boss into their fold, and with this public opinion turning against him, they’ll have an even stronger reason to resist him now."
Although public opinion is not the law, sometimes it is enough to destroy a person.
"We need to strike back. Don’t forget, we’re a PR company; handling these kinds of issues is our specialty."
Wang Jin’er stood up and said.
Jiang Linda and Su Yuqing exchanged a bitter look with their president. Myth Communication, which currently had Chu Shiyu among others upfront, barely had a few people—practically no staff at all.
In a luxuriously grand estate.
Zhou Jie got out of the car and gazed at the estate not far away. In a place like Sea City where land is worth its weight in gold, owning such a sizeable estate in a central area was definitely a symbol of power and influence.
"I am Zhou Jie from Tianshu Media, with an appointment with Young Master Yang."
"Understood, please come in directly."
The smaller door in the main gate clicked open, and Zhou Jie entered the courtyard, which must have spanned several acres. He followed the path into the villa.
"Please take a seat, I’ll be with you in a moment."
"Okay, thank you."
It wasn’t long before someone in a wheelchair was pushed into the living room, and Zhou Jie quickly stood up.
"I’m very satisfied with the article you published today."
"I hear you used to work for Myth Communication and were colleagues with Li Feng."
Zhou Jie’s expression darkened, "Not to hide from Young Master Yang, this Li Feng is completely clueless. If it weren’t for his talent in sucking up to Miss Wang of the Wang family by being a kept man, he wouldn’t amount to anything."
"Myth Communication was doing well, and then he came along and within a month, turned the place into a complete mess. As a partner, I couldn’t stand it and had no choice but to leave Myth. And most of the employees were so disappointed that they left one after another."
"Myth Company was on the verge of collapsing, but somehow he managed to ingratiate himself with Century Group and even became a strategic partner."
"It’s like a ludicrous fairy tale. Century Group is a conglomerate worth over a trillion in assets, and Myth Communication is now left with just a few people, almost going under. Strategic partners? It’s a joke."
Zhou Jie said through his teeth, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Muyang, the Crown Prince of the Century Group.
It was said that the Crown Prince ended up being castrated and had gone to T country, and we all know T country’s ladyboys are world-famous.
Chen Muyang listened to Zhou Jie finish speaking. He had already inquired about Zhou Jie, who had been kicked out of Myth Communication by Li Feng. One could say there was animosity between them. Zhou Jie, although not at the pinnacle of the public relations industry, certainly had some skills.
At least on certain matters, the two shared some common ground.
"If I entrust this matter to you, can you handle it well?"
Zhou Jie’s heart leapt when he heard Chen Muyang speak. Century Group was one of the top ten groups in Sea City. If he could get on their good side, Zhou Jie could fully qualify to become a partner in his current company, and even hope for this year’s Public Relations Person Award.
"Young Master Yang, if you hand this matter over to me, I will give it my all and nail Li Feng to the pillar of shame."
Chen Muyang hummed in response, "Then let’s sign the contract. I want him to never be able to turn over in his grave."
Zhou Jie left with the signed contract, beaming with joy.
"Young Master Yang, the notice for the board meeting has been sent out, in the name of the chairman’s wife."
"Got it."
Chen Muyang sneered. The show was about to start. Li, this time I will make sure you have nowhere to be buried.
Chen Muyang, who had lost his ability to have offspring, had changed. Previously, he was irritable and quick to anger, resorting to violence when humiliated. Now, he had become more insidious and calm.
"Whose call is it?"
"Century Group."
"Hmm, what does Century Group want, calling you at this time?"
"The chairman’s wife has called a board meeting."
"Han Xue has called a board meeting."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jin’er and the two ladies’ eyes widened in shock.
"Weren’t they saying that Han Xue was captured by Chen Muyang? Would Chen Muyang let her go and still allow her to attend the board meeting?"
Jiang Linda was visibly shocked; the move seemed rather sinister.
Wang Jin’er, however, remained calm, yet inhaled sharply, "Could it be that Han Xue has turned traitor?"
"How could that be possible? Han Xue is pregnant with the chairman’s child, and according to the new will, her child will inherit Century Group. Why would she join forces with Chen Muyang?"
Su Yuqing shook her head in disbelief; it made no sense.
"Yeah, Chen Muyang is a sick man. If he has captured Han Xue, why would he release her? Could it be a pretext by the other party?"
Chu Shiyu added. She had nearly been violated by Chen Muyang before, and it was because of her that Chen Muyang ended up a eunuch.
How could he have captured Han Xue and done nothing at all?
Li Feng looked at the puzzled women, "Don’t forget, Chen Muyang is now a eunuch."
"A eunuch?"
Wang Jin’er lifted her head, "You mean, since Chen Muyang is now sterile, he doesn’t plan to do anything to Han Xue. He might even want her to give birth to the child because that child is of the Chen bloodline."
The more Wang Jin’er thought about it, the clearer it became, "If that’s the case, it’s not impossible. Since Chen Muyang is a eunuch and can’t have children, Han Xue’s unborn child is the only bloodline of the Chen family. So, it seems like there would be a conflict between them, but their actual interests may not clash."
"Chen Muyang doesn’t target the child, and Han Xue would likely choose to cooperate with Chen Muyang because they share a common interest. On the contrary, Li Feng is an outsider. If the will is to be followed, Li Feng could assume the chairman’s authority, essentially handing over Century Group on a silver platter."
"It seems this board meeting is likely to bode ill."
The three women couldn’t help but look towards Li Feng.
