Chapter 334 Touching His Sore Spot
With a gasp from someone, everyone who received the documents looked at Lin Mo with astonishment.
"Assistant Lin, this..."
"Is it the X Group I'm thinking of?"
Lin Mo curled his lips: "Otherwise what?"
"......"
Everyone in the conference room looked surprised, their mouths agape, speechless.
X Group!
That's a legendary conglomerate that has risen steadily since its founding and now controls most of the financial industry overseas!
Should X Group be made a substitute for Shengshi Group?
this........
Seeing the astonished looks on everyone's faces, Lin Mo said, "I'm sure everyone is familiar with X Group. As a well-known investment group in the international financial district, X Group has focused on the international market in recent years and rarely gets involved in domestic projects."
Someone asked, "So, how did you manage to get in touch with the X Group?"
Everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to Han Xi, who sat in the head seat.
The elders of the Han family all know that Han Xi was able to enter the Han family smoothly by bringing investment from X Group, and used this to seize Han Ming's controlling rights.
Lin Mo was prepared and said calmly, "You all know that the boss of X Group is a unicorn in the investment world. Over the years, every project he has set his sights on has made money. He has also always focused on overseas markets. But you don't know that the founder of X Group is actually Chinese."
"what?"
"middle......."
"Although X Group's largest investment sector is overseas, the domestic market has developed rapidly in recent years. As a Chinese person, he naturally does not want to lose such a large domestic market."
Chairman Zhao continued, "So, X Group has its eye on the Taihu Bay project?"
"That's right. Putting aside the strength of the X Group itself, just considering the previous cooperation between the Han family and the X Group, everyone... there shouldn't be a better choice than the X Group, right?"
"Besides."
Lin Mo paused, looked at Han Xi in the head seat, and then said, "The cooperation with Han's Group was personally designated by President Tang of X Group. You may not know, but President Tang and our President Han are alumni."
One sentence stirred up a huge wave!
Han Xi is actually an alumnus of the same school as Mr. Tang, who invested in the legendary X Group!
No wonder he was able to get investment from X Group right after graduating from university!
With the board members stunned by the news, the matter was settled.
Just as this matter was settled, news reached Shengshi Group that Han wanted to kick Shengshi Group out of the Taihu Bay project and bring X Group into the project.
The board members of Shengshi Group were in an uproar!
Originally, they thought that if the Han family kicked Shengshi out of the game, it would be impossible to find a more suitable partner in a short period of time.
Thinking that if they tried to negotiate further, there might still be a chance for things to turn around.
Unexpectedly, before the liquidation of their Shengshi project was even finished, the Han family had already climbed up to the X Group.
That's the X Group!
Even at its peak, Shengshi Group didn't have the strength to compete with others, let alone now that it has been losing money year after year and is only barely surviving thanks to the connections it had built up before.
The Shengshi Group was instantly thrown into chaos.
The board members all had somber faces, their eyes filled with resentment as they stared at Sheng Qianrui and her father.
If word gets out that Han's Group has suspended its cooperation with Shengshi Group and is now accepting the offer from X Group, then Shengshi Group will be completely finished!
The people in the conference room discussed it back and forth, but in the end they could only come up with one solution.
----
The Han family's old house.
Han Guodong was pruning potted plants in the courtyard when Sheng Jinghui, accompanied by Sheng Qianrui and their driver carrying many gifts, was led into the house by guard Li Duo.
Han Guodong caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, but ignored it.
He continued to carefully trim the flower branches in front of him, which hadn't been pruned in a long time.
"Sir, someone has arrived."
After Li Duo finished his report, he turned around and stood behind Han Guodong with a serious expression.
"Uncle Han."
Sheng Jinghui forced a smile, "I'm sorry to have disturbed your enjoyment."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Guodong's scissors snapped off a horizontal branch with a "snip".
Sheng Jinghui looked at it and his heart skipped a beat, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Han Guodong frowned slightly with regret, then put down the scissors, took off his gloves, and looked up. "So it's Jinghui."
He smiled slightly and pointed to the lawn not far away. "Have a seat first. I'll wash my hands and be right there."
"Hey, good."
In front of the old man, Sheng Jinghui was like a young boy, cautious and timid in every way.
Holding Sheng Qianrui's hand, he didn't dare ask a single question and walked towards a table not far away.
As soon as they sat down, a servant brought over tea, served them tea, and then quietly withdrew.
About ten minutes later, the old man finally arrived.
Upon hearing footsteps, Sheng Jinghui immediately stood up, and Sheng Qianrui, who was next to him, naturally followed suit.
The father and daughter obediently watched Han Guodong take his seat before sitting back down.
"Jinghui, it's been so long since you've come to visit. What made you suddenly decide to come over this time?"
The old man smiled kindly, and although he was over seventy, a closer look revealed a sharp glint in his eyes, which had seen battle.
Sheng Jinghui's expression was somewhat unnatural, and Sheng Qianrui didn't even dare to raise her head.
"Why this expression?"
The old man asked knowingly, "Is there something you need from me?"
Since Han Guodong brought it up, Sheng Jinghui couldn't let this opportunity slip by. He cleared his throat and quickly said, "I'm not afraid to tell you, but there really is something."
Han Guodong remained silent, glanced at him indifferently, then picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and put it down.
But after setting down his teacup, he didn't loosen his grip, holding it lightly without looking up: "If you're here for the Taihu Bay project, you don't need to say anything."
"..." Sheng Jinghui's prepared words suddenly got stuck in his throat.
“Jinghui, you were really foolish to keep that fake engagement from Xiujin.”
Sheng Jinghui's face turned ugly. After a long pause, he could only nod with his eyes lowered, "Yes, it was my momentary lapse of judgment that upset Xiu Jin..."
"Do you think that's all?"
Sheng Jinghui looked up and saw that the old man was staring at him seriously.
"I also know about the substandard quality inspection of the construction materials used by Shengshi Group. Jinghui, Shengshi Group started as a small construction company. I don't need to tell you how important construction safety is, do I? How could you do such a heartless and foolish thing!"
Sheng Jinghui opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Han Guodong took a deep breath, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said coldly, "Xiu Jin has always been careful in his actions. This time, you and your daughter have really crossed him. It's no use coming to me about Shengshi's affairs."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Jinghui's face turned deathly pale.
Seeing her father swaying and looking dejected, Sheng Qianrui finally couldn't help but kneel down with a thud.
"Grandpa Han, please give us another chance!"
