Chapter 82 Take the money and get out.
Inside the Chen family's living room.
Chen Jun summoned several of the company's founding shareholders to his home for a secret meeting.
His secretary closed the door, served tea to everyone, and casually placed an ashtray on the table.
No one present knew that a miniature listening device was stuck to the base of the ashtray.
At this moment, Xiao Yiyi was sitting in the Xiao family home, with her laptop placed in the middle of the coffee table and the volume turned up to the maximum.
Several members of the Xiao family were present, eavesdropping on the secret meeting taking place within the Chen family.
"Gentlemen, I've called you all here today to discuss the survival of our group," Chen Jun said solemnly, gesturing for silence.
“As you all know, Jiahua has given us an ultimatum: if we do not agree to be acquired at a low price, they will launch a full-scale offensive to bankrupt us. And I gave them a reply yesterday.”
“I rejected Jiahua’s acquisition offer, and I have already sent the letter of intent back.”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the shareholders present changed.
Except for two people who didn't react much, everyone else looked panicked.
"President Chen, why didn't you discuss this with us before rejecting it outright? Doing this will lead the company to its demise!" someone said angrily.
"Yes, everyone knows how powerful Jiahua is now. Who in the entire South City can stop them? Offending them means more than just the company going bankrupt; you'll be utterly humiliated in the South City business district from now on!"
"That's too reckless! How could you act so arbitrarily? We've said it before: we'd rather be acquired than offend the Xiao family!"
The shareholders were so angry that their faces turned pale, and they all started to criticize Chen Jun.
Hearing the argument, Xiao Yiyi sneered.
"Chen Jun is really overestimating himself. In my opinion, Jia Hua might not even need to do anything; they will collapse from within."
"What a pig-brain! He's so stupid as to try to curry favor with Xiao Chen and think he can stand against my Xiao family. What a pipe dream!" Xiao Hongyuan said contemptuously.
"I've already bribed several shareholders of the Chen family company. Today, I'll put on a good show for everyone," Xiao Yiyi said confidently.
At this moment, the crowd in the Chen family's living room was filled with indignation, showing signs of a rebellion against Chen's army.
"Don't forget, I am the largest shareholder of the company, with more shares than all the others combined, and I have the final say!" Chen Jun said coldly.
The group was speechless for a moment, their expressions filled with anger.
"I hereby announce that from today onwards, all decisions of this company will be subject to the instructions of Mr. Xiao Chen," Chen Jun continued.
"what?"
This made the shareholders even more furious, and they stood up in shock.
"Mr. Chen, are you kidding me? You're really going to entrust the company's fate to such a greenhorn?"
"Isn't this childish? Following his orders? Who does he think he is? If the company goes bankrupt, can he take responsibility?"
The shareholders were outraged and once again criticized Chen Jun.
“Xiao Chen… how come that name is the same as that abandoned son of the Xiao family? President Chen, you can’t be serious? You’re pinning your hopes on an abandoned son? What makes him think he can fight the Xiao family!” someone shouted.
"To expect us to follow the orders of the Xiao family's abandoned son and fight against the Xiao family is utterly ridiculous! I will never obey!"
"If Mr. Chen insists on going his own way, then there's nothing more to say. We'll all withdraw our shares! Unless... you withdraw your appointment and agree to the acquisition!"
Later, several shareholders joined forces to threaten Chen Jun.
"Do you...do you know this is the company's only way to survive!" Chen Jun trembled with anger.
"What capital or ability does a discarded son of the Xiao family have? You've lost your mind to believe him!" the leader shouted, his attitude turning hostile.
"Will you accept this order or not?"
Chen Jun's face turned grim, and he fell silent.
If these people do withdraw their shares, it will be a huge blow to the company.
But it's absolutely impossible for him to betray Xiao Chen!
"Very good." Xiao Chen finally spoke, saying calmly.
"You want to withdraw your shares, right? Sure, just register everything, sign the documents, and then take your money and get out."
His words startled everyone.
After all, they were just trying to scare and threaten Chen Jun.
How dare this kid actually let them withdraw their shares?
"Heh, kid, stop pretending. You think you can just withdraw your shares like that? It's not something you can just talk about. Where's the money? Can you come up with it?" The leader said with a disdainful look.
Xiao Chen didn't waste any words, he just clapped his hands.
The living room door was opened, and several underworld guards carried in several boxes.
The boxes were placed on the table and opened; each one was filled with gleaming white banknotes.
"This……"
In an instant, the shareholders were dumbfounded.
No one expected that Xiao Chen would actually be able to come up with the money.
That's no small number of boxes.
"Here's thirty million, enough to buy all your shares. Sign the papers now, take the money, and leave," Xiao Chen said coldly.
The shareholders looked at each other in bewilderment.
If they actually sign the papers and take the money, how will they explain it to Xiao Yiyi?
Even if they don't die, they'll be badly injured...
Chen Jun breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he hadn't followed the wrong person.
Throwing out 30 million so casually, that's some serious financial strength.
"Thirty million? Xiao Chen can come up with thirty million?" Inside the Xiao family, everyone was filled with disbelief.
How can this be?
He was clearly just a useless, abandoned son of the Xiao family.
"It must be the Ling family, the Ling family from the provincial capital in Yunheng. Otherwise, Xiao Chen probably wouldn't even be able to come up with a few thousand yuan. Damn it, why is the Ling family helping him so much?" Xiao Hongyuan said angrily.
Xiao Yiyi's face turned pale; she was very unhappy about this miscalculation.
The Xiao family remained silent.
In the Chen family, those shareholders went from being aggressive to becoming listless.
"Mr. Chen, we don't really want to withdraw our shares, we just can't bear to see the company go down a dead end..."
"Jiahua is unbeatable, we should..."
They changed their tune and advised Chen Jun not to oppose the Xiao family.
"I hope you can all sign and leave with some dignity. I don't want to reveal your dealings with Jiahua," Chen Jun said coldly.
The group was terrified and dared not utter another word.
In the end, they had no choice but to sign the papers, take the money, and leave.
"You stood with the company through thick and thin during this time of crisis, and the rewards in the future will far exceed your imagination," Xiao Chen said to the remaining two.
"Mr. Xiao, what are your plans?" Chen Jun asked.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly.
“Next, I want you to transform into the cosmetics industry, starting with the launch of Youth Pills,” he said.
"A pill that can be mass-produced and keeps women looking young for ten years."
"What? Such a miraculous thing exists in the world! And it can be mass-produced!"
Chen Jun and the two shareholders were extremely shocked.
Xiao Chen took out the actual item and told them that he had obtained the certification of a top-level physician.
"I never imagined that Mr. Xiao could create such a miraculous medicine! It's simply a miracle! I can't even imagine the sensation this product will cause and the enormous wealth it will bring us!" one shareholder exclaimed with immense joy.
They were both extremely relieved.
Inside the Xiao family compound, Xiao Yiyi, Xiao Hongyuan, and the others stood there dumbfounded.
"Youth Pills, mass-produced?" They found it unbelievable.
If this thing were to actually hit the market, it would be a game-changer!
"In addition, we will also launch a series of cosmetics that are more effective than any other brand on the market, and cheaper than big brands," Xiao Chen continued.
Chen Jun and the other two didn't know what to say.
Xiao Chen holds the key to wealth!
They can just sit back and make money.
"The only things we lack now are medicinal herbs and raw materials. I've already heard that a large batch of precious medicinal herbs will be auctioned off in the South City in two days. We must get our hands on them!" Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xiao," Chen Jun nodded in agreement.
"The highest price we can afford is... If it exceeds that, the company will go out of business, and the plan will be stillborn." Xiao Chen whispered a number, instructing the three not to leak the information.
The three nodded in succession.
The Xiao family members who had been eavesdropping finally showed joy.
"We absolutely cannot let them get that batch of medicinal herbs!" Xiao Hongyuan said emphatically.
"At all costs!" Xiao Yiyi nodded in agreement.
