In the Chairman’s office.
Josh Lin sat on the executive chair, and Bob Liu stood at the table.
“Chairman Lin, you just said there was something I could do, what can I do for you?” said Bob.
“Bob, do you remember the girl I brought to the company yesterday? You should go to her house in the name of Huading Group’s charity, and help her mother find a good hospital for the best treatment. Give her a sum of money as a donation, and the company will pay the money.” Josh said.
“The girl yesterday? Chairman Lin, are you going to help her again? Wouldn’t you...like this girl?” Bob said with a smile.
Bob still remembered what happened yesterday, and now Josh asked him to help this girl again, it was no wonder that Bob had random thoughts.
“Uh, I just think she is pathetic and needs my help.” Josh said embarrassedly.
“Hey, Chairman, don’t explain, I’m an experienced person, my feeling is definitely right.” Bob said with a smile.
After hearing Bob’s words, Josh couldn’t help asking himself if he really liked Jane.
Josh only knew one thing, that was, he wanted Jane to lead a good life and protect her from suffering forever.
Bob continued:
“Chairman, why are you concealing your identity from her? Yesterday’s sponsorship fee was obviously your contribution to her, but you didn’t let her know. This time you let me help her again. In this way, she will never know that you are helping her, and she doesn’t know how kind you are to her.”
In Bob’s opinion, Josh should be frank to Jane, and then help her in an upright manner, so that Jane could know that Josh treated her very well.
“Okay, don’t worry about it, just do as I ordered.” Josh gave Bob a contemptuous look.
“Yes! Chairman Lin, don’t worry, I will do it perfectly.” Bob nodded in response.
“By the way, Bob, when you were downstairs just now, you said that there was an important thing that needed to be told to me urgently. What is it?” Josh asked.
When Bob heard this, his face suddenly became serious.
“Chairman Lin, something terrible happened on the construction site of the Huajing Garden real estate....” Bob’s face stiffened.
(Note, Huading Group’s main business is real estate)
“Something terrible happened?”
Josh was taken aback, and then immediately asked:
“Say quickly, what happened?”
In Josh’s view, Bob’s expression was so solemn, if something really happened, it was definitely not a trivial matter!
“The scaffolding on the construction site was deliberately tampered by someone, causing more than a dozen workers to be killed on the spot.” Bob looked solemn.
“What?! More than a dozen workers fell to death!” Josh’s pupils twitched sharply.
More than a dozen lives, this was definitely not a small accident.
Moreover, this accident took more than a dozen lives away!
“Bob, you just said that the scaffolding was deliberately tampered by someone, what was going on? Who did it!” Josh asked in a hurry.
“Chairman, I just went to the construction site to investigate. The scaffolding was indeed deliberately tampered by someone. If my guess is correct, it should have been done by Jinqiang Group secretly!” said Bob.
“Jinqiang Group!”
Josh suddenly narrowed his eyes, and there was a startling chill in his eyes.
As a native of Qingyang City, Josh knew Jinqiang Group.
Jinqiang Group was a local group in Qingyang City.
It could be said that no one in Qingyang City did not know Jinqiang Group.
Speaking of Jinqiang Group, we had to say that Chairman Jinqiang Xiang was a legendary figure.
Jinqiang, famous in the 1990s, relied on his notorious ferocity at that time to make a name for himself in Qingyang City, and finally became the boss of the underground forces in Qingyang City.
After entering the 21st century, Jinqiang began to change his career.
Ten years ago, when the real estate business was booming, Jinqiang took advantage of the trend to enter the real estate industry. By virtue of his being the boss of the underground forces in Qingyang City, coupled with his vicious methods, his company soon became the strongest real estate group in Qingyang City.
“Chairman Lin, you may not understand that since the establishment of our Huading Group Qingyang branch, Jinqiang Group has regarded us as a deadly enemy.”
“For fear of the strength of our Huading Group, Jinqiang Group dare not fight us with a great fanfare, but they often did something bad to us secretly. Over the years, our branch had suffered a lot because of their secret calculations.” said Bob.
After a pause, Bob continued: “Including this incident. Besides Jinqiang Group, I can’t think of anyone else who will deliberately direct at us.”
After Josh heard this, he probably understood the situation.
“Jinqiang Group is just a local group. Can it be better than our Huading Group? Our Huading Group is the largest group in the Southwest. Can’t we destroy it?” Josh squinted and said.
“Chairman Lin, Jinqiang Group is the biggest commercial enemy for our Huading Group in Qingyang City. Of course we want to defeat Jinqiang Group.” Bob said.
Immediately, Bob turned around and forced a smile helplessly:
“However, as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. Although our Huading Group is strong, as a local snake, Jinqiang is deeply rooted in Qingyang City. It is not an easy task to completely eradicate it.”
“As long as the Huading Group is determined to destroy it, I don’t believe it can’t be destroyed!” Josh said coldly.
“If Mr. Liu is determined to destroy it, everything will be fine, but the Huading Group’s business is spread across dozens of cities. Mr. Liu is a busy man, so how can he deal with it specifically?” Bob said.
After a pause, Bob continued:
“Even if Mr. Liu defeat it on his own, it would be quite troublesome to get rid of local snake like Jinqiang Group. At least the price paid is more than the reward.”
“Is that so?” Josh nodded suddenly.
To put it simply, if the head office of the Huading Group was determined to destroy the Jinqiang Group, it would be no problem, but they were just a branch of the Huading Group.
At this moment, the account manager rushed in and said eagerly as he ran:
“Chairman Lin, General Manager Liu, something... something goes wrong!”
Such words made Josh and Bob feel bad in their hearts. Could something bad happen again?
“Why are you so flustered? Say!” Bob urged.
“Chairman Lin, Manager Liu, and the customer service has been receiving phone calls all day long. Many users who bought the house in Huajing Garden real estate asked for refund.” The account manager said anxiously.
“Asking for refund? Why?” Bob frowned and asked.
“They said that more than a dozen people died in the Huajing Garden real estate. They don’t want to live in the real estate where someone died there, so they want to ask for refund.” The account manager said anxiously.
“How many customers call?” Bob continued to ask.
“So far, there have been seventy or eighty, and calls are still coming in.” The account manager said eagerly.
When Bob heard this, his face became more solemn.
Josh’s expression also looked unsightly. As the Chairman of the company, Josh was also annoyed and anxious when such a thing happened.
At this time, the engineering manager rushed in and said as he ran:
“Chairman Lin, President Liu, something goes wrong! Something goes wrong!”
“What’s wrong?” Bob asked quickly.
“Many customers who have already bought houses gathered in the sales office of Huajing Garden, and they all ask for refund! They said that they don’t want to live in the real estate where someone died there, and the sales office is almost out of control!” the engineering manager said eagerly.
After hearing this, the faces of Bob and Josh became more unsightly, and the situation was worse than they thought.
Josh also squinted his eyes and said: “The accident happened on the construction site was in less than a day, so how could these customers know about it? It is impossible!”
“Chairman Lin, you don’t have to think about it. It must be the Jinqiang Group who did it. It must be them who conveyed this news to those customers!” Bob gritted his teeth.
“Does Jinqiang group just want to trouble me? In order to achieve this goal, he did not hesitate to kill more than a dozen workers. It is really an inhuman beast!” Josh said viciously.
Josh was angry not only because Jinqiang group secretly tricked them, but also because Jinqiang group was inhumane.
Josh’s father was also a construction worker, and Josh’s father was killed in an accident on a construction site!
Therefore, when Josh heard this news, he was very angry. Behind these more than a dozen lives, there might be more than a dozen families, and there would be more than a dozen single-parent families like Josh’s family!
