Chapter 1731: Counterattack
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The call with the relevant department lasted for more than ten minutes before Lin Yi hung up.
Lin Yi believed that with their level, they could suppress all the negative news in a short period.
Now, he had to think about how to counterattack.
However, before making further arrangements, Lin Yi called Ji Qingyan to test her attitude.
If she had a cheerful attitude, it meant that there was no problem. She probably didn’t see the video between him and Li Chuhan.
Otherwise, boom!
It would be time to book a bed at the crematorium.
The call connected, and Lin Yi’s heart was pounding.
This was the first time he had been so nervous over a phone call.
“Mr. Lin, are you getting off work soon?”
Ji Qingyan’s cheerful voice came through the phone, as melodious as a lark.
Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief. Judging from her attitude, he should be fine.
Lin Yi thought about it and realized that his worries were unnecessary.
She was so busy every day that she probably didn’t have time to watch short videos. Moreover, she didn’t have the habit of watching those things in the first place.
He Yuanyuan was also the focus of the investigation, but Lin Yi didn’t give her a call.
With her personality, if she learned about this, she would definitely call Ji Qingyan immediately and the latter would not be so cheery.
“Hello? Canyon hear me?”
“Yes, the signal just now was a little bad.” Lin Yi returned to his normal state. “I haven’t gotten off work yet, but I’m free now. I was just calling you since I had time.”
“So that’s how it is.” Ji Qingyan giggled, “Your performance was pretty good. I’ll make it up to you tonight.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
After a simple chat, Lin Yi found an excuse and hung up.
Since Ji Qingyan was fine, he could focus on the Tesla case.
Ring ring ring!
At this moment, Lin Yi’s phone rang again.
This time, it was an unknown number.
“Mr. Lin.”
After picking it up, Lin Yi heard a familiar voice. He seemed to have heard it somewhere before.
A few seconds later, he remembered that it was the person called Zhao Fenghua.
“You must be Zhao Fenghua.”
“Mr. Lin didn’t forget me. Your memory is amazing.”
“I don’t want to hear any more nonsense. If you have something to say, say it.
If you have something to say, say it.”
“Nothing much. I just want to talk to Mr. Lin about what happened yesterday,” said Zhao Fenghua.
“We still come with sincerity, hoping you can put in a good word for us and convince that woman named Yang Bing to withdraw her lawsuit against us. And rest assured, all the promises we made to you will be fulfilled, ensuring that your lifestyle in Zhonghai moves up a notch.”
“You people are really something, setting me up behind my back, and now coming to say all this. Do you think this is amusing?”
Zhao Fenghua laughed, not attempting to conceal his intentions, and even added a slight tone of condescension.
“Mr. Lin, please don’t be angry. We were forced into this position. Everyone needs to make a living. You jeopardize our livelihood, and naturally, we needed to respond. It’s only polite to return the gesture,” Zhao Fenghua said.
“But we do come with sincerity, and we hope Mr. Lin will consider our position carefully. We don’t want any unnecessary complications.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“Not at all, just objectively stating the facts,” Zhao Fenghua continued.
“After all, we are a major international corporation, and our CEO has recently become the world’s richest man. There’s really no need for you to confront us head-on. Wouldn’t it be better for everyone to just ‘eat from their own bowls’? Don’t you think?”
“Hehe…”
Lin Yi sneered. “Then I’ll tell you today. Not only will I destroy your bowls, but I’ll also destroy your whole rice pot!”
Lin Yi hung up and called He Yuanyuan.
However, no one picked up after calling twice.
Damn it, she must have gone shopping with the company funds again.
Helpless, Lin Yi called Tian Yan.
“President Lin.”
“Where’s He Yuanyuan?”
“Hmm… do you want to hear the truth or a lie?”
“Tell me a lie. Let me be mentally prepared first.”
“President He is working hard in the office.”
“What about the truth?”
“She went shopping.”
“Damn!”
Lin Yi cursed. He knew her the best.
“President Lin, is there something going on?”
“Did you see the news about Tesla’s brakes failing?”
“Yes.” Tian Yan said.
“This is good for us. The few electric car companies that the company has invested in have been doing very well these few days.”
“Let’s take this opportunity to do something to them and stir up the public opinion. The bigger the better. It’s best if it reaches a point where it can’t be resolved.”
“You mean, you want us to secretly add fuel to the fire?”
“What do you mean by secretly? Just do it openly. Don’t care about anything else and go against them openly!”
“I don’t think that’s a good idea. Tesla is too big. It’s not good for us to fight them to the death. It’s very likely that both sides will suffer.” Tian Yan said.
“Although we have also ventured into the electric vehicle industry, all we need is fair competition. After several years of development, Tesla can’t possibly be our rival. I’m quite confident that we can surpass them.”
“Using legitimate means to take them down would require a lot of effort, but now that the opportunity has presented itself, when the wall falls, everyone pushes. Let’s pull their oxygen tube first and discuss further.”
Tian Yan thought about it. No matter how she looked at it, this was a risky move.
Not to mention herself, even President Qi might not dare to do this.
“I’ll hold an executive meeting now and come up with a plan.”
“When He Yuanyuan comes back, tell her about this and let her take charge of it.”
“You want Director He to be responsible?” Tian Yan said.
“Director He is the CFO. She doesn’t know as much about this as I do.”
“This isn’t normal business practice. It’s a catfight. She’s more suited to it than you are.”
“Alt, I understand.”
“In short, leave this matter to her.”
“Okay!”
After giving instructions, Lin Yi hung up.
It would not be a problem for He Yuanyuan to handle this kind of conflict. Tesla’s people were just a bunch of trash in front of her.
Then, Lin Yi called Yan Ci.
“President Lin, do you have any instructions?”
After the call went through, Yan Ci teased.
“I have a big job foryou,” Lin Yi said.
“Recently, Tesla’s brakes have failed.”
“There was a lot of commotion a few days ago, but the hype seems to have passed these few days.”
Because of their different identities, Tian Yan and Yan Ci paid attention to different things.
What Tian Yan was concerned about was how much benefits she could obtain from this matter.
Yan Ci was concerned with how much attention was left whilst looking for opportunities to capitalize on it.
The saying “where you sit determines where you stand” fitted perfectly here.
“You must have a lot of trolls on your hands, right?”
