Chapter 31 — After Doctor Diep Disappeared

Today he was dressed neatly again. Beard shaved, hair combed, changed into a fitted navy blue suit. If you ignore the silver-speckled hair at the temples and the sunken eye sockets, you can almost see his silhouette two years ago.

“Get the final merger agreement that Jane sent over here.”

The Legal Director was stunned.

"Mr. Gu, are you sure you want to see it yourself? The previous team of lawyers has done a comprehensive analysis..."

“Take it out.”

The Legal Director didn't say much, opened the computer, and projected documents onto the big screen in the meeting room. The agreement includes 113 pages. Co Han Chau read from the first page to the last, which took four hours. He didn't understand the subtleties of legal terms, but there was a loophole he saw. Page 78, provisions on handing over core patent copyright. This provision requires Co Thi, within thirty days after completing the merger, to unconditionally transfer all patents that it researches and develops in the field of medical devices, including patents that are being licensed and have not been published. In exchange, Jane only needs to pay a lump sum amount much lower than the market valuation. This means. Once she signed, Co Thi not only lost her business rights, but even the last technological barrier was completely lost. And that lump sum amount is not even enough to pay off Co Thi's current debts. After signing, Co Han Chau will turn into a ragged man with a debt of more than a billion yuan on his back. If creditors sue, he will go to jail. The Legal Director finished reading, his face turned pale.

“Boss, this is a pit where people are buried.”

He pointed a laser at the clause on page 78.

“The meaning of this clause is, she wants to swallow the Co without a single piece remaining, not even the bones will be left for you.”

“By signing this signature, not only will Co's life be over, but your personal life will also be over.”

Co Han Chau looked at the small bold text on the screen and said nothing. The Legal Director continued.

“We have made preliminary calculations, after transferring the patent, the remaining asset value of Co Thi is not enough to pay external debts, the estimated shortfall is about twelve to fifteen billion yuan.”

“These debts will fall on you personally.”

“By that time the court executes the judgment, all assets in your name will be sealed and frozen.”

He glanced at Co Han Chau and lowered his voice.

“More seriously, if suspected of intentionally dispersing assets, there will be criminal risks.”

The door to the meeting room opened and several senior managers walked in one after another. Each person held a printed copy of the agreement in their hands. The deputy general director was the first to speak.

"Boss, I can't sign."

“This agreement is a gallows from beginning to end. If you stick your head in, she will immediately kick the chair from under your feet.”

The operations director followed suit.

"General, even if we give up on merger negotiations and file for bankruptcy to liquidate assets, shareholders will still be able to salvage some remaining value, and you yourself won't have to go to jail."

“Sign this and you will lose everything.”

The financial director slammed the table.

“If you say something difficult to hear, She didn't come here to do business, she came to demand people's lives."

Seven or eight people were talking back and forth, the meeting room was as noisy as a market. Co Han Chau sat in the chair, from beginning to end without opening his mouth.

“Answer Jane.”

His voice was low and calm.

“I sign.”

The Legal Director jumped out of his chair: "Mr. Gu!"

“The condition is.” Co Han Chau raised his hand, cutting off all the sounds.

“Jane herself must go to the Co Thi building to complete the final handover procedures.”
